InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Death, No Reason To Forget Love ❯ A Little Pep Talk ( Chapter 3 )

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha! I only own the story! But wouldn't it be good if I did own the show? Or the manga? Hmm… Anyway, I hope you enjoy! This kinda took me a long time to write. But besides my meaningless rambling, Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi.

Death, No Reason To Forget Love

Chapter Three: A Little Pep Talk

"Are you sure she's okay, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked as he looked at his best friend who was standing in front of him, arms crossed against his chest, trying to keep holding a strong face.

Inuyasha looked down at his red kimono, in which dark red bloodstains were still visible from the previous battle, he hadn't bothered to wash it. He put his hand on a bloodstain near his heart, shaking his head in uncertainty. "Personally, Miroku, I have no clue. And, as much as I want to, I'm actually afraid to go back to Kagome's era…"

"Why's that?" Sango asked gently, sitting on the edge of the well along with Kirara, watching the boys.

"Because… I think her mom is still mad at me for what happened, and I'm just afraid for the worse so I have to be prepared!"

"But why be afraid, Inuyasha?" Shippo perked up, jumping on Inuyasha's head. "I mean, you were never afraid before whenever you were killing people or demons yourself!" Shippo then screamed, unwanted bumps appearing all over his forehead. "Owww…!"

"Why would her mother be mad at you?" Sango asked, looking down into the well.

"Because, it was my fault… I guess we just weren't strong enough to battle Naraku on our own, and I was too much engaged in the battle to even think about Kagome at the time. Usually I give her my fire rat kimono to wear for protection, but… I just, well, I just had my mind set on winning. But we failed…" Inuyasha practically choked, trying not to cry as he turned his head down looking at the well himself, fists clenching as his hair covered his eyes. "And now Kagome's probably dead… And it's my fault if we never see her again!"

Miroku frowned as he looked over at Sango, who had the same expression on her face. "You really don't think Kagome could… die, could she? She just…" Sango lightly said, not wanting an answer as she stopped herself, shaking her head as tears started forming at the corners of her eyes, burning as they fell down her cheek. Sure, in the past the group would worry that someone had died, but this time it really felt like Kagome wouldn't be coming back, it felt like someone had just stuck a steak through Sango's heart like if she was a vampire.

"Until we know what happened, Inuyasha, we shouldn't worry... Right? Just go back and check on her, please! For all of our sakes!" Shippo screamed, tugging at Inuyasha's pants. But at the exact time Shippo was wincing, getting prepared with the thought that he was just going to get more bumps on his forehead, Inuyasha just simply chuckled to himself and slightly nodded his head, jumping in the well, not caring one bit that Shippo, Sango and Miroku were watching. All his mind was set on now was to see Kagome again. That part might be easy, but not the part thinking that he could possibly never see her again.
