Now before we start I would just like to say that I may not make it out alive..seeing how I'm going to be writing and all and to do that I have to be in the action...damn. But so far everyone here has front row seats. Hats, mugs, and t-shirts are being sold at this very moment. Some have Kikyo's head with blood seeping from the neck others have Kagome sticking a knife through Kik's heart. They're all very fashionable and I must thank my cousin for making them.....lol. Okay I'm done so on with the show......

OH WAIT! One more thing. In the last chapter I said Kagome put on a shirt that said "Dashboard" and what I meant and was supposed to put was that it said "Dashboard" on the front and "Confessional" on the back....but I could be wrong, because someone requested to have her wear that shirt and all they said was "Dashboard" but when I asked my friends they said it was "Dashboard Confessional" so..yea...k on with the story....

Chapter 17: Tragedy

**************************************************************** **************

'Why did she have to be here. Damn that wench ALWAYS ruins something.' Inuyasha thought as he and Kagome slowly walked towards the miko in question. She had a sinister smirk that could make anyone shudder in fear but not Kag and Inu. Nope they were to strong for this and they knew it. Miroku and Sango saw where they were going and ushered for the others to follow. They looked on in worriment as they got closer.

"What do want know Kikyo?" Kagome asked very angry. Kikyo smirked as she looked at the couple.

"I told you that I would get you back for what you did. Lets just say I picked this moment for it." Kagome and Inuyasha's eyes narrowed into slits as they stared at her with pure hatred. "But now Inuyasha, this, is between me," She pointed to Kagome. "And her. Your punishment will come later." Inuyasha growled as he got in front of Kag.

"You won't lay one figure on her. Got that!" Kagome put her hand on his shoulder and got in front of him.

"Don't Inu. I can handle this." Inuyasha looked down at her in hesitation. That's when he saw the determination and fierceness in her eyes. He backed up slightly knowing Kagome could take her on but just in case he would be there for her. Kagome and Kikyo stood there not saying a word. Both were ready for anything and waited for the other to start. Kikyo was the first to burst and she let go a small energy ball towards Kagome. Kagome just smirked and brought one of her arms up, easily blocking the weak ball. "Is that the best you can do?"

"Of course not. I'm just getting started!" Kikyo yelled as she ran towards her. Kagome did the same and when they were half way to each other both let out their punches. ((I'm not gonna be like DBZ and have them use energy blast...thingies...lol))

~*With the group*~

"Inuyasha! Your not going to let her fight like that? I mean she could get hurt." Ayame said worried that her newly friend was fighting some witch that she only met once. Inuyasha didn't answer her, as he was having to many thoughts running through his head. Kouga came up to her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, pulling her back a bit.

"Don't worry. Kag is pretty damn strong. And I'm sure nothing Kikyo does can bring her down." Ayame looked up to her boyfriend and knew that he spoke the truth. She just couldn't help but feel like something wasn't right and that in any case the first thing she would do is run out to help her friend. Sango, Miroku, and Shippou were thinking along the same lines. While Kirara could only ask what was going on.

~*back to the fight*~

Both miko's stumbled back as their fist connected with each others face. Kagome smirked as she spit out some blood. She could see as Kikyo was breathing heavily and occasionally spitting out blood herself.

"Give it up Kikyo. I'm sure you won't last my next punch to your ugly face."

"Never! I swear Higurashi! I'll kill you." And with that said she started to run after her again. Kagome this time just waited and as Kikyo got closer she powered her right arm up for another blow. Right when Kikyo was arm's length. Kagome made to punch her, but it seemed that Kikyo was expecting that and held up her left arm, blocking the blow while her other arm connected with Kag's stomach. Kagome's breath caught and she gasped for air. Slowly she sank to her knees and breathed deeply as her lungs started to work again. Kikyo could only smirk. Slowly Kagome looked up, her hair covering most of her face but you could see one of her eyes and it didn't look to cheerful. Kikyo's smirk disappeared as she prepared herself to fight again. Kagome stood and looked Kikyo in the eye. Her aura was now flaring and she took slow steps towards Kikyo. Kikyo was a somewhat frightened and brought her arms up in defense.

Kagome smirked and mad a dash for Kikyo, who's frightened level turned up to terrified. Kagome took a small leap into the air and back down with both her hands linked together in one fist. She brought it down onto Kikyo, who quickly blocked it with both her arms into a shield. When making a shield it took lots of power and Kagome knew this. Swift fully she kicked Kikyo in her side and dropped to the floor as she saw Kikyo go down. Kagome stood there for quite some time, watching as Kikyo kept turning on the ground. The impact to her side must have broken her ribs. Kagome knew this because she had taken kick boxing for five years. No body knew except for Sango who took it with her.

~*With the group*~

"Ooo. That blow must have at least broken one to two ribs." Sango said making a painful face. Miroku nodded wondering where Kagome learned to kick like that.

"That must really hurt. Especially for her being human and all." Kirara cringed. ((Oh yea I don't think I mentioned that Kirara IS a demon, a fire-cat demon)) Everyone nodded their head in agreement. Inuyasha was still not listening to a word they said. He was to caught up in being ready if Kikyo hurt Kagome or something wrong happened. He knew this would happen eventually but not so soon. He was kind of hoping that Kikyo would forget all of it, but he knew that was a fat chance. He was more happier when she kicked Kikyo pretty hard. But then they all changed and he was surprised as he saw Kikyo slowly get up. He heard the others gasp and couldn't help but do the same.

~*Back to the fight*~

Kikyo got up, coughing up blood on her way. 'Yup she definitely broke a rib.' Kagome thought watching the weaker miko. Kikyo finally got to her feet. One of her arms supporting her while the other holding her side. Shw wiped the blood that came from her mouth. All was quite until you could hear chuckling coming from who, but Kikyo. Kagome's brows raised. 'Now why would she be laughing.?' The girls question was answered when Kikyo jerked her arm behind her and brought something shiny. She laughed in an evil way and looked at the shocked Kagome.

"This is it for you Ka-Go-Me!" She was now laughing hysterically as she pulled her arm higher, pointing the item at Kagome. Everyone gasped louder as they saw what she was holding. Inuyasha was the first to react and ran to Kagome, but before he could fully get to her Kikyo screamed.

"STAY BACK! S-stay back o-or I'll s-shoot!" Kikyo said slightly shaky. She held the gun more firmly as she pointed it from Inuyasha back to Kagome.

"Damn it Kikyo. Your going to far with this." Inuyasha yelled to her. She shook her head violently.

"No I'm not! I have every reason to do this." Inuyasha rolled his eyes.

"Kikyo, a gun? C'mon. You know it, I know, the world knows that this is TO FAR!" He said walking closer and closer. Kikyo noticed this and pointed the gun to him.

"Don't move Inuyasha. I swear it, I'll shoot. Don't you dare tempt me." Inuyasha growled.

"Then do it. Shoot me Kikyo." He said. Kikyo bit her bottom lip as tears started to fall from her eyes.

"I can't you're my family. You're the only one that cared for me. The only who would play with me when we were kids. We used hang out a lot, that is until she showed up." She said angrily and pointed the gun back to Kagome. "Because of her you left and I had no one. You think I actually trusted those other people we hung with? Never." She seethed. "They weren't friends. They were just users. But not you Inuyasha. You're the only one I trusted. You're the only one."

"Kikyo I promise we can go back to the way things were, but first you have to realize that I love Kagome and we will be together." Kagome looked at him, feeling her heart pumping quicker and quicker. One reason was for what he said and the other reason was because this was what exactly she was dreaming about that day. 'Oh...My...God! The dream. This was it. But that must mean.' she gasped and brought her hand over her mouth. She started to shake her head slowly. 'No....no this can't be.' Tears formed as she saw how everything was coming.

"No, everything can't be like they used to be. NOTHING can be and its all HER fault. All I have to do is get rid of her and my life will and only then will be like it was!" She started to laugh again as she took the safety off. Kagome watched as in slow motion everything came all to quickly. First she saw as Kikyo pulled the trigger, hearing as the bullet came out and headed straight for her. Then she could hear the screams from her friends and just when she knew things were going to get worst, the shadow of her lover could be seen from the corner of her eye. She could see as he ran in full demon speed, when he leapt and dove in front of her and as his body jerked back a little when the bullet hit him right in the chest. Slowly she turned her head and slowly she saw as his body hit the ground with a thud.

She breathed in, holding her breath as she walked over to him. Scared as anything she knelt down and ever so gently turned his body so that he lay on his back. What she saw made freshly new tears stream down her face. There in the dead center of his heart was a hole, a hole that wouldn't stop flowing blood.

"Inuyahsa." She whispered at first. "No this can't be. Inuyasha. Please wake up." The tears blurred her vision as she shook him. "C'mon open your, please, for me!" She brought her head down to his chest and she faintly hear his heart beat slowly. "PLEASE INUYASHA!" She yelled this time , making her friends that were approaching her walk quicker then before. Kirara who didn't dare go over, took out her cell phone and dialed 9-1-1. The dispatcher answered and she quickly said the problem, told them where they were at and to hurry. She looked on in horror as Kagome was grouped around by her friends and a few pedestrians. Kirara then looked over to Kikyo who slowly was realizing what she did and looked like she was about to dash out of there. And she did just that. Kirara growled and with her demon speed caught up to her in no time.

"Where the hell do you think your going, bitch." She added as an after thought. Kikyo stood there until she thought that she could get by and made another dash, but Kirara caught her and sung her back a few feet. "I suggest you stay there and don't move unless you want my claws dug into your face." Kikyo didn't respond but didn't move either. Her eyes were as blank as a piece of paper and she looked almost mindless, as if she had no soul. Within a few minutes the police, fire department, and ambulance came. Their sirens blasting all the way. It had taken a while for Kagome to let go of Inuyasha. She just wouldn't let them take him. The medics tried to tell that he was going to be alright and that if she didn't let hurry he could die. That got her and she let go. Her friend huddled around her, hugging her close. When the police questioned about what happened Miroku and Sango took that over, noting their friend was in no condition to relive that.

When they went over to kikyo. She didn't say a word, just stared ahead of her. The police thought that maybe she was in shock, while others thought she went insane. They handcuffed her and brought her to one of the ambulances. There the medics tried to fix her injuries.

By now the whole neighborhood was there. Kagome's mother ran to her daughter the moment she heard the sirens. Her daughter cried into her arms and everyone tried to comfort her but to no avail were they doing much. That's when Kag's mom decided she would be happier if they went to the hospital. She nodded her as her mother lead her to the car. The others saying they would follow in Inuyasha's car.

~*AT THE HOSPITAL*~

~*KAGOME'S POV*~

I couldn't see anything, I couldn't feel anything. It felt like, like I was dead. I didn't feel like talking to anyone, I didn't feel like seeing anyone and I...didn't want them to see me. I sat there, in the waiting room as my mother went and asked where Inuyasha Yokoda's room was. They had said that he had came in a few minutes ago and was still in critical care. When those came out of that nurse's mouth, I felt like screaming, I felt like my whole world was turning upside down and that if I wasn't quick enough to do something, I would fall and lose everything.

My friends soon came into view and they had worried and concerned faces. They huddled around me and tried to comfort me, telling me it was going to be alright and that Inuyasha was a strong boy. That no matter what he would never leave. How I wanted to believe them, but that would only happen if I saw it for myself.

~*4 HOURS LATER*~

I woke up with a start. I hadn't noticed that I fell asleep. I looked around and saw that everyone was there. Inuyasha's mother, Akira, Rin and Sesshomaru had gotten there ten minutes after my friends and they did the same. Now they were asleep and by the looks, I was the only one awake. Slowly I got up. Noting that Souta's head was on my feet. So I made sure not to wake him. Right when I got up and stretched the doctor came. He was holding a clip board. I ran to him and he quite at first.

"He is finally out of critical care and we put him in a room. The bullet was deeper then we thought and that's why it took so long. Thanks to his half demon blood, the hole in his heart is healing quicker, or quicker then any normal human heart. You may see him, but I do advise that only one person visit him at a time. Don't want him to get too excited and his heart rip open again." I nodded my head taking everything and sinking it into my head. "Seeing how you're the only one awake. I guess you can be the first." I nodded again this time more urgently and excited. I was so happy to hear that he was okay. "Follow me." And I did just that.

AN: *sniffle* Sad isn't it. Now before you go to review. I BEG YOU NO FLAMES PLZ. Your probably saying why you would do that but I just want to make sure and tell everyone now.

I'm really not punker/skater/or rocker...but I have friends who are and they're the ones helping me with acting and dressing. I'm more ghetto. I just felt like writing a punkish/skaterish story because I was seeing (At the time) to many gangsta and ghetto stories. On the gore question....hmmm I guess I'm the 'guts' writing type. -_- Oh look another long response....lol.^_^

FOR REVIEWING!!! NOW REVIEW AGAIN..lol

If I missed anyone SORRY and THANX for reviewing!!

<<*Semi-important*>> okay I need your help ppl!!!! Well the thing is that not to long ago I was reading this story...this REALLY good story and stupid me didn't put it in my favs and now I can't remember the title or the author. All that I know are a bits and pieces. Okay this is what the story was about in my POV....

Kagome and Inuyasha outside of school are the best of friends, but during school they are enemies. Or really fake enemies. Inuyasha goes out with Kikyo and can't break up with her because if he tries she or her father sends these pictures of his dad cheating with some girl to his mom, and Inu doesn't want his mom to suffer. And now Inuyasha and Kagome have FINALLY figured out that they love each other, so they only get to be with each other every so often.

Well that's from what I remember...Does it sound familair???? If so PLZZZZ can you tell me what the story is called and who wrote it!!! I would greatly appreciate it!!!! The last time I read it, the chapter ended with Kagome and Inuyasha getting caught by someone in the janitors closet!!!! SEE HOW THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING MEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
