DemonGirl-Setsuna: Hi there! Setsuna here!
Please don’t kill me, it just tears me up at the thought of killing InuYasha. I was thinking of killing Kagome, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.
Here is Chapter 1!
Please Enjoy and don’t kill me!

Ch. 1
She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not
--------------------------------------
“Naraku is finally dead and the sacred jewel is complete!”, Shippo cheers.
“We know that Shippo, we were there too”, Sango says, holding her brother; Kohaku’s, sleeping form in her arms.
“What do you think InuYasha will do with the jewel, when he gets it?”, Shippo asks, “Do you think he’ll use it to bring back Kikyo? Or use it to make himself a full-fledged demon?”, he asks.
“I don’t know Shippo, it is up to InuYasha”, Miroku replies.
InuYasha walks off, away from the group.
“InuYasha, where are you going?”, Kagome questions.
“I need sometime to think”, he mutters, heading towards the forest.
“Just be careful, you know what tonight is, right?”, she calls out.
“The turning of the cycle, I know!”, he shouts, disappearing into the shadows of the forest.

An Hour Later…
Under the Sacred Tree…
What do I want?’, InuYasha thinks, sitting among the roots of the tree, ‘I only care for Kikyo, because I feel guilty over her death. She is cold and uncaring to me now. I can’t, will not wish her back to life’, he violently shakes his head.
What about using the jewel to become full-demon, like I first planned to do?’, he ponders, looking at his hand, ‘But after that accident with that moth demon Gatenmaru, I’m not so sure I want to wish for that either’, he grips his shoulders and shivers as he recalls all the humans that died by his claws that day.
“My head wants power, but what does my heart say it wants?”, he whispers, looking at the sky, ‘The sun will set soon, then I’ll know what my heart wants’, he sighs, feeling his demon blood slowly ebb away.
Just as the sun disappears behind the horizon, his silvery-white hair darkens to mid-night black, then his gold eyes darkens to violet, his dog ears slide down to the sides of his head and round into human ears, then his fangs and claws shorten to normal human length.
InuYasha lets out the breath he was holding, ‘I used to hate the times I turned human, but now I don’t mind anymore’, he comments in his head, a smile on his face.
A cool spring breeze chills his body, causing his to shiver, ‘What is it that I truly want?’, he asks himself.
(What about Kagome?), a voice in his head says.
“Kagome…”, he whispers, as his body suddenly becomes warm, ‘Why is it that every-time I think about Kagome, my body becomes all warm inside?’, he questions himself.
I must love Kagome’, he gasps, ‘She does love me’, he recalls the time he had to save her from that creepy baby that was Naraku’s heart and she screamed out ‘I love InuYasha!’, just before he broke down the door, ‘Why didn’t I notice that I love Kagome before? Wait, I know why, I was stubborn and scared that if I admitted it, I would lose another woman I love’, a single tear rolls down his cheek as he remembers his mother, ‘Kagome is the first woman, other than my mother, that I trust the secret of when I turn human to. I truly love Kagome, if I trust her with that’, he adds.
Kikyo walks into the clearing, but InuYasha doesn’t notice her.
Is that InuYasha?’, Kikyo thinks, ‘He’s human! Did he use the jewel?’, she adds.
“Though I love Kagome, it still won’t stop Kikyo from wanting to bring me to hell with her”, InuYasha mutters aloud to himself.
“You love Kagome more than me”, Kikyo’s icy voice hissed.
InuYasha jumps at the sound of her voice, then turns his head to look at her and his blood ran cold, ‘Kikyo…’, he thinks.
“But you are right, InuYasha. It won’t stop me from wanting to bring you to hell with me”, she continued to hiss.
By the time Kikyo finished her sentence, InuYasha was already bolting towards Kaede’s village.
But he doesn’t get far as a searing pain spreads itself from his left shoulder-blade. For a spilt-second he glances at the arrow sticking out of his back as he falls forward and the last thing he sees before he blacks out, is his head hitting a rock.
