Chapter 6:
All You Wanted
Inuyasha visibly swallowed, and mentally prepared himself to let go. The sun that once low in the distant evening sky had set. He felt it, his blood receding… *thump, thump, thump* his heartbeat speeding up as it shrank to the size of human’s; his fangs disappeared, his hair turned inky black, and his claws faded to blunt human fingernails.All You Wanted
Inuyasha shivered as felt the eerily all too familiar sensation of his ears creeping down the sides of his skull, as bones twisted, popped, shifted and all together disappeared. It was always an odd experience because it didn’t hurt, but it felt like it should; he knew it should hurt.
He took a step forward and called out her name ever so softly, “Kikyo…”
Her eyes opened, she sat up and looked into his molten orbs, “Inuyasha…”
“Inuyasha… you’re, you’re human! Impossible! How can this be?”
Inuyasha snorted, “Isn’t this what you wanted, Kikyo?”
He watched as she, slipped from the branches of the tree, and came close to him; reaching out to touch him.
“Is this some kind of dream?”
Her hand was near his face and he turned away from it. Away from her, looking up into the moonless night sky.
“Yes.” He said quietly.
“This is a dream, your dream. This is your dream, your wish of how I should be.”
Inuyasha turned towards Kikyo again,
“Just this once, only for tonight I am as you wished me to be, no claws, or fangs, and without a part of myself.”
Her eyes narrowed,
“I see, so it is your human night; Inuyasha.”
“Kikyo…” he began but she cut him off saying,
“No more words. No more words, Inuyasha, I know why you have come. It’s her isn’t it? Kagome, my reincarnation has finally succeeded where I failed; I can see it in your eyes. How I have longed to be the one to heal your soul, and live with you as an ordinary woman.”
Kikyo moved closer to him, bridging the small space between them, and drew her arms around him embracing him, “Inuyasha…”
Her eyes were sorrowful, and had she been able he was sure they would have overflowed with her tears; and he could not stop himself from returning her embrace.
“We cannot go back, I can not go back, and time does not stop even for the dead. Be happy, Inuyasha that is my wish for you. Be happy, and never forget me; for I have loved you as much as I was capable of.”
Stepping back, and away from him, she released him from her grasp. Inuyasha could only watch as Kikyo’s soul collectors lifted her softly glowing form into glistening night sky, and her parting words were nearly lost to the wind,
“I release you from your promises. Farewell, Inuyasha we shall meet again.”
Inuyasha whispered a soft reply, “Thank you. Sayonara, Kikyo.”
He found that he felt lighter, and he could not shake the illusion that somehow breathing was easier than before. His thoughts turned to Kagome; he smiled softly, and spoke them aloud,
“Wait for me, my lovely Kagome; wait for me just a little more.”
Far across the Inuyasha no Mori, and 500 years on the other side of time, Kagome was dreaming peacefully. If anyone had been close, enough they would have heard her mumble gently in her sleep,
“I’ll wait for you forever, Inuyasha… forever.”
Inuyasha snorted, “Isn’t this what you wanted, Kikyo?”
He watched as she, slipped from the branches of the tree, and came close to him; reaching out to touch him.
