Chapter 17: You never did give a damn thing honey but I cried, cried for you

Kagome stared fearfully towards Inuyasha. Naraku had come and was making him choose. Her or Kikyo. A bitter laugh escaped her. She knew his choice. She knew it like the back of her hand. He would always choose Kikyo over her. She was just a friend. She didn't blame him though. If she had had the choice, she would always choose the one she loved over a friend no matter what.

There was only one way to make this right. Tears fell from her eyes as Inuyasha started to look at her. She gave a tremulous smile before closing her. Almost immediately, she gave herself up to her miko powers. She called on the jewel shards she held for more power. They began to grow tainted with her selfishness. As the light burst around her, the shards were tainted no more from her sacrifice.

Her limp body fell to the ground, the puppet dead. Kikyo had been given a new soul so that she could live. Instead of staying though, Kikyo left. Inuyasha dropped by her broken body, cradling her head. Reaching up with what little strength she had, she gave him a pure smile. “Be happy with her Inu… I cried enough for the both of us.”
