InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Club Copa ❯ The Unexpected End ( Chapter 17 )

“Kagome…” he said barely above a whisper. “Help…me…” she reached down, gripping his hand and pulling him up with newly found strength. He fell over the side, landing with a hard thud. Inuyasha panted, breathing hard. Black bruises circled his neck from where Kouga had gripped him.

 

“Inuyasha…” the miko couldn't believe it. It was as if he was back from the grave! “Inuyasha this is all my fault! I loved you and I-” Something warm pressed against her lips. She felt his arms wrapping around her, pulling her into a strong embrace. After a stunned moment she kissed back.

 

He ran a hand through her long, beautiful raven-hair. Kagome leaned into him; her eyes squeezed shut as she deepened the kiss. She could feel his soft growl vibrating through her. `Inuyasha…I love you so much…' He broke, slowly falling back, his eyes closed.

 

“Kagome…I love you…” Her coffee hues still shut she through herself on top of him, embracing him. Letting it all sink in. `He isn't dead. He is here and he loves me…he loves me…'

 

<><><><> LAST CHAPTER <><><><>

 

Kouga moved, the bright crimson blood was everywhere. He tried to send a punch at Sesshoumaru, but it was weak and the Taiyoukai dodged it easily. “Dog breath…” he panted, “I'll kill you…” That clawed hand shot out again, knocking him to the ground. Acid burned into the wolf's flesh, making him bare his teeth is pain.

 

Kouga struggled to his feet, standing still for a moment he moved in for another attempted attack. That stoic youkai pulled his fist back, about to put an end to the problem when another hand clenched around it. Sesshoumaru turned to see his brother. Inuyasha shook his head, standing in front of the Taiyoukai. “I…need to do…this…” Inuyasha breathed.

 

The wolf youkai growled, “should have let your brother finish me off Inu-mutt. Then you wouldn't have to die!” he lunged at Inuyasha who narrowly dodged. The hanyou was weak, his movements sluggish.

 

Kagome stood near the edge of the building watching with her hands clenched at her sides. “Inuyasha!” she yelled as he was knocked to the ground by Kouga's kick. Inuyasha was right back up, sending a kick of his own at the wolf. Sesshoumaru stood to the side, watching this and wondering why he had allowed his half-brother to step in. Perhaps he was going soft?

 

“Damn you to hell bastard!” Inuyasha growled digging those claws into Kouga's chest. The wolf coughed, spitting blood over himself. “DIE!” he screamed slamming his fists into the wolf's face. Kagome squeezed her eyes shut, letting out a horrified shriek. The blood…it was everywhere she looked. Splattered at her feet, covering Inuyasha's hands.

 

Kouga let out one last pained groan as he crumbled in a heap on the rooftop. Blood ran from his wounds, covering him and everything near. The hanyou stood, his hands trembling and those golden hues down cast. They slid up, looking at Kagome who was slowly backing away, shaking her head slowly back and forth.

Sango let out a string of curses under her breath as she sped toward the hospital. Maybe Kagome had just gone to visit Inuyasha. That had to be it! She swerved dangerously through traffic, glancing at her clock she saw it read a little past midnight. Visiting hours were long over, but Sango still held hope.

 

She slammed on the breaks as the car pulled up outside the hospital. Streetlights were the only illumination. `Was that Inuyasha's voice?' she thought, but shook her head. No. He was in the hospital. Kouga couldn't reach him there…could he?

 

<><><><>

 

Sesshoumaru's hard golden orbs narrowed and he left. The Taiyoukai left at a swift pace, slamming the rooftop door shut behind him. As he made his way down those narrow stairs he couldn't shake the feeling that was hovering over him. Something was wrong. Still, Sesshoumaru kept moving forward without a backward glance.

“K- Kagome…” Inuyasha breathed moving closer to her. He was reaching out to touch her, but let his hands drop to his sides. They were wet, covered with thick warm red liquid. The miko looked up at him, studying his eyes. “Kagome…I…I…”

 

“Inuyasha…I didn't know…” she swallowed, closing her eyes. How did her gentle hanyou become so cruel? `No.' she told herself and shook her head again. He did it for her; Kouga had tried to kill both of them! “I just…I was so scared!” she screamed leaning against him. She didn't care if blood was being wiped all over her, as long as he held her.

 

Inuyasha's breathing was heavy as he wrapped his arms around her, burying his face in that raven-hair for a moment. He pulled his head back. “The police won't be long…” He said, but didn't continue. Why was she trembling? Her eyes! Why was she so scared?

 

“Thought I was dead didn't you!? Well that mistake will cost your life!” A voice screamed. Inuyasha didn't have time to turn around before Kouga sent a punch with amazing force at him.

 

With a howl the hanyou was slammed forward hitting Kagome. It all happened so fast. Her screams. Her shrill screams. A sickening crack and then everything went silent.

Sango turned to look up and her eyes widened. She wanted to scream, but it caught in her throat. Finally it came as those violet hues shut. “KAGOME!” No. No. No. No. NO! She fell to her knees. Sirens blared. Red light flashed, making everything swirl.

The funeral was held the next week. Miss Higurashi remained silent, staring at her daughter's black coffin, as it was lowered into the ground. “My baby…” she wept, “my beautiful baby girl…” Souta gripped her hand, his head moving slowly back and forth in disbelief. His sister…his sister was gone.

 

Sango had dug her head into Miroku's chest, refusing to look up as he tried to comfort her while he himself was letting silent tears fall. And worst of all was Inuyasha, who hadn't even come.

 

He sat in darkness, staring at the wall. The blood from the week before was still caked on his clothes. That silver hair matted and dirty, ears flat against his head. And those eyes. Those golden hues were hard, cold, and emotionless. `I should have held her.' he thought remembering it like it had been only a moment before. That look in her beautiful chocolate hues as her foot caught the side and she fell.

 

Then Kouga, smirking as fell to ground, dead from blood loss. The rest was all a blur. All those screams. Were they his? Yes...he had screamed her name as she fell unable to reach out and stop the fall.

 

“Not fair…” he muttered under his heavy breaths. And now a new emotion swept over him. Anger. Uncontrollable anger. His teeth ground together, a growl rising in his throat. Hot tears escaped his eyes and fell down his cheeks. “Nothing…was fair…and now…now they will pay…”
