^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

All around Inuyasha, he could feel heat. Burning. Licking at his flesh. Trying to eat away at his skin like the evil he felt emitting from Kikyo's heart. She now hated him with a stronger passion than before. At this knowledge, he felt his heart rip in two. She was evil now but, no matter what, he would always love her in the special way. She was his first true love and would always hold a place in his heart.

 

Tears escaped from beneath Inuyasha's closed eyelids. Hot, salty tears that burned trails down his cheeks. He loved Kikyo, but he loved Kagome with the part of his heart that was eternal.

 

Seeing her hurt was the worst thing that Inuyasha had ever seen and caused him more pain than the deepest wound. He felt his fists tighten in emotional pain. “Ka...Kagome, I love you.” he whispered. At his voice, the flames immediately jumped away from him, dropping him onto the hot, hard earth.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

Kagome was lost in darkness. All alone. She felt calm, like nothing in the world could hurt her ever again.

 

“Kagome.”

 

“Who was that?” Kagome called. That voice sounded so familiar. So comforting. Like a sweet dream she had once heard.

 

“Kagome, I love you.” At those words, she realized who the voice belonged to.

 

“Inuyasha!” Kagome screamed. She crashed back into reality. Her head spun and ached, like something had hit her really hard. Then she remembered that Kikyo had bent her spine in the most uncomfortable way.

 

Kagome stood up unsteadily. “Inuyasha, where are you?” she whispered. She slowly walked by the puddles of fire. “Inuyasha!” she called, searching desperately.

 

“Kagome?” she heard a weak voice call.

 

“Inu...Inuyasha? Where are you?” Kagome called again.

 

“I'm over here!” Inuyasha yelled. Kagome turned a corner and saw Inuyasha wearily perched up against a dirt wall. Kagome ran to him but stopped short when she saw his arms and hands were burned badly.

 

“Inuyasha, you're hurt!” Kagome exclaimed, running to him again.

 

“It's nothing. Just a little burn. We have to get out of here now!” Inuyasha said sternly. He grabbed Kagome's hand, wincing a little in pain. He began to lead her away, down through the paths that lead back to the demon hole entrance.

 

Kagome begged to the high God to let them escape without Kikyo finding them, but as soon as they began to exit the lair, Kikyo appeared before them.

 

“You can't escape so easily.” Kikyo sneered.

 

“Get out of my way!” Inuyasha barked.
