I do not own Inuyasha or anything related to it.

Miroku sat beside Kagome and Rin, while Sango chatted with Kohaku and Kusano. They had made it to the top of City Hall where they were greeted by a team of 16 American soldiers. The soldiers were led by a Japanese Captain named Kouga Nagano, he told the group that they weren't actually there for extraction. They were there to capture a General gone rogue, but they had played at not knowing about it.
"Where's this General coming from?" Miroku asked as they stood beside Captain Nagano's Cargo Chopper.
"The police station. The General and his squad were holed up there for months. General Simmons paid off the local authority to take over the station, recruiting anyone he could find for his own personal army. We had knowledge of it, but it took months for us to gain enough evidence to issue a warrant. By the time we got it, we were too late." Kouga replied, twirling his sidearm in and out of its holster.
"Sesshomaru went to the police station." Rin said, a heavy feeling setting in her stomach.
"He'll be okay, Rin. We have to wait for him here." Kagome replied, putting a hand on Rin's arm.
Now, it was an hour until the chopper took off and Sesshomaru still hadn't returned. Rin's worry escalated, and she became hysterical. Kagome and Miroku were doing their best to calm her while Sango left Kohaku and Kusano to chat with Captain Nagano.
"It looks like we're getting out of here." Sango said to Kouga, standing beside him.
"Yes. I have no intention of leaving your group stranded in this hell." Kouga was checking the spare firearms that were in the chopper. He jammed a clip into one of the AR-15s and handed it to Sango. "Here. If your friend isn't here at the end of the hour, we'll scan the surrounding area from the sky then head to the police station."
Sango took the rifle from him and whispered, "Thank you." She looked over the rifle, trying to get used to its weight. "Do you know why General Simmons went rogue?"
Kouga shook his head, "We have theories, but nothing solid. We think power was the main one, but it wouldn't make sense being a General."
"What do you mean?"
"Being a General gives you a lot of power throughout the military. He basically had control of every soldier in the country, but I guess that wasn't good enough for him." Kouga checked the remaining firearms, before exiting the chopper with Sango.
"Hey, Miroku." It was Kagome.
"Yes?" Miroku asked turning to look at her.
"What are we going to do when our lives become normal again?" Kagome was rubbing her stomach, thinking about the baby that was growing inside of her.
"I'm definitely going to talk Sango into letting me do porn." He chuckled and received a slap in the arm from both Kagome and Rin. "I'm kidding!" He stated, tying his hair back into a ponytail, "I'm not sure. Maybe become a doctor or something. Something where I can help people. What about you Rin?"
Rin shrugged her shoulders, "I'm not sure, but I do know that I'm going to have a lot of sex with Sesshomaru." Miroku and Kagome both burst into laughter. "What!? I was looking forward to getting a good fuck while camping!"
"Yeah, because getting poison ivy in your ass crack is always ideal." Kagome snickered earning a slap from Rin.
"It's only happened once." Rin muttered under her breath.
"And you, Kagome?" Miroku asked, turning his attention to the younger girl.
"Be a mother." Kagome said proudly, rubbing her stomach. Miroku caught the sparkle in her eye as she said it.
"You mean you're-" Rin began. Kagome nodded with a smile across her face. Instantly, Rin and Miroku both tackled her to the ground, hugging her tightly.
"I'm going to be Aunt Rin!" Rin squealed, hugging Kagome tightly. Kagome laughed as they squeezed her tighter.
"What's going on here?" Sango asked walking over to see Miroku and Rin basically crushing Kagome.
"Kagome's going to be a mom!" Rin squealed again.
"What!? You're pregnant!?" Sango jumped into the group hug, "When were you going to tell us!?"
"Well, with everything going on, it kind of slipped my mind." Kagome blushed. Sango and Rin squealed some more. Miroku had ejected himself from the group hug and stood next to Kouga.
"It's things like that, that give me hope for humanity." Kouga said holding the AR-15 above his head. Miroku nodded in agreement. Their celebration was cut short when a storm of gunfire rang out from the streets below.
Captain! We have tangos surrounding the entrance! There must be hundreds of them! The solider called through the radio as the fire continued.
"Everyone fall back! I repeat, fall back!" Kouga yelled into the radio. He turned to his soldiers guarding the rooftop perimeter, "Everyone watch the rooftop entrance! We have incoming tangos!" He, then, turned to the pilot. "Get this thing ready to go! We're taking an early departure!"
"No! We can't leave without Sesshomaru!" Rin screamed at Kouga, but he shook his head.
"Listen lady! Your friend can't even access the building now. There's hundreds of those things down there! And unless you want to die up here, I suggest you listen to me and do what I tell you!" Kouga yelled back. Rin was about to scream at him again, but Miroku stopped him.
"He's right, Rin. We're going to have to go without him. There's no other choice." Miroku said softly, bringing Rin into a hug as she began to cry in his shoulder.
"Everyone get in the chopper now!" Kouga yelled over the chopper's spinning blades. The sound was nearly deafening, but the gunfire was still audible.
We're almost to the top, Sir. We're going to have a bunch following us. The soldier called into the radio.
"Prepare for take off in five!" Kouga yelled about to run to the rooftop entrance when someone grabbed his arm. It was Miroku, and he was holding one of the AR-15s from the chopper.
"Let's go." Miroku said walking to the rooftop entrance. The entrance was wide enough for three cars to drive onto the roof at the same time. Most of Kouga's team were already standing nearby with their rifles aimed down the entrance.
"Fire on my mark!" Kouga and Miroku aimed their rifles just as three soldiers began to ascend the ramp to the roof. Behind them was a flood of undead beings. "Fire!" A hailstorm of bullets rained upon the army of carriers. Chunks of meat and red mist flew in all directions. Carriers dropped left and right, but their numbers didn't seem to dwindle. Fear ran through Kouga as he saw three carriers jump over a line of their undead comrades and tackle one of his men to the floor. They ripped into him with ferocity, quickly silencing his screams as they tore out his throat.
"Kouga! We gotta go!" Miroku yelled over the sound of gunfire.
"Everyone get to the chopper! NOW!" Kouga began walking backwards with Miroku, keeping a steady rate of fire at the waves of carriers that were fast approaching up the ramp. One by one, Kouga's men began to fall victim to the carriers, until only four of Kouga's men remained.
"Fuck! Let's go!" Miroku yelled, pulling at Kouga's arm, even as Kouga fired his rifle trying to save his already doomed men. Kouga growled at Miroku, but Miroku refused to leave him. "You can't save them! Let's go!" Miroku pushed Kouga towards the chopper.
"Lift off the ground!" Kouga radioed to his pilot. Soon after, the chopper lifted several feet from the ground, making Miroku and Kouga jump to grab hold of the cargo gate. Kouga made it over with ease, but Miroku struggled as a carrier grabbed Miroku's foot. He kicked at the carrier, but it refused to lose it's grip on his ankle. Kouga drew his sidearm and aimed down at the carrier. "I can't get a shot!"
Miroku reached into his waistband and drew one of the glocks he had. He aimed it at the carrier and scored a shot just beneath the carrier's nose. Kouga reached his hand down to help Miroku up. Miroku let the glock drop from his hand as he took Kouga's and got pulled into the chopper. Miroku panted heavily and muttered, "Thanks Kouga." As he pushed himself from the floor of the cargobay.
"Head to the police station." Kouga yelled up to his pilot.
"But, Sir, our orders were to wait here then return-" The pilot began to protest, but Kouga cut him off.
"Fuck orders!" Kouga barked at his pilot, "Just go to the damn police station, but don't land. Just hover above it and look for any survivors, NOT in military uniform."
"Y-Yes Sir." The pilot stuttered.
Miroku took a seat beside Sango, who hugged him tightly. "Why are we going to the police station Kouga?" He asked between breaths.
"I'm not leaving your friend out there." Kouga smiled at Rin, who mouthed a silent 'Thank you' at him. "Just like you didn't want to leave me on that rooftop." He said turning back to Miroku.
"Well, it's not in me to leave someone behind."
"Nor me." Kouga grinned at the group and joined his pilot in the cockpit of the chopper.
"How are we supposed to get Sesshomaru to know we're heading that way?" Kohaku asked, grabbing one of the AR-15s from the weapons cache.
"We'll think of something." Miroku said shutting his eyes. "We always do."
Inuyasha and Sesshomaru led Kairi up the stairs to the third floor of the police station. The main entrance had been blocked off after all the gunfights, but the gun battles hadn't stopped. They basically fought soldiers around every corner, in every room, in every hallway, throughout the entire station. Sesshomaru had suffered a bullet wound to his already injured arm, and Inuyasha was beginning to lose alot of blood after being stabbed in his back by a soldier that had managed to sneak up on them.
Inuyasha collapsed against the wall, his breaths were ragged and his vision was going blurry. Sesshomaru stopped and walked back to him. "Come on bro. We're almost there, just one more floor until we get to the roof."
Inuyasha shook his head, "I can't Sesshomaru. Just leave me. I'm dead weight right now." Inuyasha tried to push his brother away but he was so weak and tired it was barely a nudge.
"No. I'm not leaving you. We're almost there. Just hold on." Sesshomaru wrapped Inuyasha's arm around his shoulder and began to trudge down the zigzag hallway the led to the roof access staircase. Kairi held onto Inuyasha's hand as Sesshomaru led them up the stairs to the roof. Once on the roof, Sesshomaru carried Inuyasha to the edge, where he collapsed to the ground unconscious.
"What are we going to do Sesshomaru?" Kairi asked staring at him with her big, red eyes.
"We just have to wait. The others knew I was coming here, maybe they'll come for us." Sesshomaru smiled at the girl. He refused to let this girl feel the fear that they may not make it out. Minutes flew by as they waited on the rooftop. It was less than 30 minutes until the chopper took off from City Hall. Sesshomaru stared out at the city from the roof of the police station. Aside from all the chaos the night was rather beautiful. The breeze that blew against Sesshomaru's face was cool, the stars were sparkling against the night sky that was beginning to get hues of purple and orange.
Inuyasha coughed heavily, finally regaining consciousness. He sat up slowly, turning to look at Sesshomaru, who was grinning down at him. "How long was I out?" Inuyasha asked rubbing his head.
"About 15 minutes." Sesshomaru grinned, but it faded when the door slammed open and a mob of carriers stumbled onto the rooftop. "Fuck!" Sesshomaru drew his glock and began to fire at the carriers. Inuyasha grabbed his AR-15 and joined Sesshomaru in the battle from his kneeling position. Kairi screamed from behind them as the door beside them slammed open. Sesshomaru swung his gun around to fire but stopped short, when he realized the muzzle of his glock was in the face of Mitsuki. She didn't hesitate to run by Sesshomaru and begin to fire at the carriers with an AK-47 she had found.
Dear Kami, if you're up there, I could use a little help right now. Sesshomaru thought to himself as he continued to fire upon the growing mob of carriers. They were getting surrounded. There were just too many of them. Suddenly, a spotlight hit them and Inuyasha looked up to see a cargo chopper above them, lowering it's cargo gate. The chopper turned so the gate was facing the rooftop and as soon as the gate lowered enough, four figures began to fire upon the mob of carriers approaching Inuyasha and the others. Inuyasha grinned to himself and continued to fire at the mob.
The chopper lowered itself until its cargo gate was within jumping distance. "Yo! Sesshomaru, Let's go!" Miroku yelled from the chopper as he fired at the carriers. Kagome ran to the gate to see what was going on, and instantly, she spotted the silver haired man kneeling beside Sesshomaru. Her eyes began to water as she recognized Inuyasha.
"INUYASHA!" Kagome screamed over the gunfire. Inuyasha turned to see Kagome standing behind Miroku with tears running down her cheeks. Inuyasha grinned and stood firing at the mob relentlessly.
"Sesshomaru! Get Kairi onto the chopper! Go" Inuyasha yelled stepping in front of everyone. Sesshomaru nodded and turned to look at Kairi. He picked her up and ran towards the chopper, leaping off the edge of the roof. Mid-air, Sesshomaru did his best to throw Kairi to the safety of the chopper. She landed hard on the iron gate of the chopper. Kagome and Rin instantly ran to the girl's side helping her up and pulling her further into the chopper. Kouga dropped his rifle and grabbed the arm of Sesshomaru, who had barely made the jump to the gate.
Inuyasha turned to look at Sesshomaru being pulled into the chopper. He, then turned to Mitsuki, "Mitsuki! Let's go!" She nodded at him then they both turned to jump. Inuyasha jumped with everything he had, he hit the gate of chopper hard, losing his breath as he landed, but he noticed that Mitsuki hadn't jumped yet.
"Inuyasha!" Inuyasha looked back to see a bloody and damaged General Simmons, holding Mitsuki around the throat. "Inuyasha! You bastard!" Simmons yelled at him.
"Mitsuki! No!" Inuyasha picked up his rifle to fire at Simmons, but Mitsuki yelled back at him.
"Just go, Inuyasha! Leave me!" Mitsuki yelled turning to face Simmons. "I'm already dead anyway." As she turned, Inuyasha spotted dozens of bitemarks up and down her back. Mitsuki reached behind Simmons with a grin on her face.
Everything after that happened in slow motion. Mitsuki had pulled the pin of a frag grenade in one of Simmons' packs just as the mob of carriers, surrounded them. The explosion that followed was massive, shaking the chopper with such force that everyone lost their balance. Inuyasha stared at the carnage of the explosion as the chopper began to ascend away from the police station. Kouga was yelling something to his pilot but Inuyasha could hear nothing.
He had failed in protecting Matsu and Mitsuki. Two people that didn't deserve to die yet and had put so much faith in him. Inuyasha balled his hands into a fists and punched the gate of the chopper with such force that his knuckles split open on impact. He screamed as he continued to punch the gate, his body going into a frenzy. He was numb, he didn't feel that his knuckles had been split open and were now broken, or that blood from his fists was splashing onto his arms. Someone was grabbing his shoulders, lifting him up.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed his name, placing her hands on either side of his face, trying to get him to look at her. He looked at her with dark, emotionless eyes. A look that sent fear through Kagome. He was still screaming, even as he struggled against Sesshomaru who was holding his arms. "Inuyasha! Please! Stop!" Kagome cried against him, then finally kissed his lips roughly. Instantly, Inuyasha stopped struggling against Sesshomaru, and melted against Kagome's lips. He wrapped his bloody hands around her waist and pulled her close, deepening their kiss. They kissed for what seemed like eternity before finally breaking apart.
Inuyasha turned to the others, who all wore worried looks. "I'm sorry guys." He whispered softly. Rin and Sango immediately ran over to him and hugged him. He smiled against their hugs.
"We thought you were dead!" Rin cired into the shoulder of her brother in law. He patted her back before pulling away, then she smacked his arm extremely hard. "Why didn't you tell us you and Kagome were having a baby!?"
Inuyasha chuckled and looked at Kagome, who blushed a deep shade of red. "I see you let it slip." She nodded shyly. He looked back at Rin, "Well, at least now you know."
Kouga grinned at the group he had rescued, "Command, mission is complete. Simmons is dead and I have a group of survivors with me."
Survivors? You get those people State side right now. Command order Kouga, causing him to grin.
"Yes Sir." He turned back to the group that had made their way to the gate of the cargo bay. Their story was an incredible one. They were the only survivors his team had seen in a couple of days and they had fought their way north through hundreds of those monsters, and now, here they stand. Damaged and all banged up, but alive.
The sun was beginning to rise over the horizon. Streaks of pink and orange filled the sky as the group looked out of the cargo bay. Inuyasha turned to Kagome once more, and kissed her passionately, rubbing his hand against her belly. She wrapped her arms around his neck, smiling against his lips. He pulled away from her and whispered, "I love you, Kagome."
"I love you too, Inuyasha." Kagome smiled before kissing him again. Kairi squeezed her way between Inuyasha and Kagome. Inuyasha smiled down at the girl then picked her up and hugger her tightly.
"Kagome, I'd like you to meet Kairi." Inuyasha said releasing Kairi from their hug, "Kairi, this is my girlfriend, Kagome." Kairi looked at Kagome and jumped into her arms.
"Inuyasha talked about you so much. I got scared I'd never get a chance to meet you." Kairi whispered into Kagome's neck as they hugged. Kagome kissed the girl's cheek as she squeezed her.
"Well, here I am." Kagome giggled.
Kairi turned to Inuyasha, "She's gorgeous. Just like you said." Kagome looked up at Inuyasha with a smile.
"I know, sweetheart. I know." He took Kairi from Kagome's arms and wrapped his arm around Kagome's waist.
They continued to stare out of the cargo bay as Japan began to fade in the distance. What had started as an ordinary day had turned into a week in hell and unfathomable nightmares. They fought their way through a destroyed city north to Kyoto, that had also fallen prey to the virus. Even in the shadow of extreme adversity, they refused to give up hope, and managed to make it out alive. They all turned to one another with smiles on their faces, knowing that they had survived the day the world ended.

Well, sadly, I must bring this story to a close. It's been a joy to write and I hope everyone that read it enjoyed it just as much. It might be a couple days before I begin writing my next story, because I get a sort of separation anxiety after I complete a story. Sorry, this one wasn't extremely long. Thank you to everyone that followed this story and thank you for all the reviews. It really means alot. I think this story got like 1300 views on FFN and 300 or so on MediaMiner, which is alot more than I thought it would get. So, again, thank you! I'd like to give a special thanks to Princess Inume, who was a constant and dedicated reader. Be sure to check out her stories, there's a link to her page in my bio. I'll possibly be co-writing a story with her, if we ever get decide on what it'll be about. So, look out for that. And one last time, thank you, thank you, thank you for all the support. I love you all.
Sincerely,
OMG Lord Zed/xSkyLiNeZx

Captain! We have tangos surrounding the entrance! There must be hundreds of them! The solider called through the radio as the fire continued.
"Everyone fall back! I repeat, fall back!" Kouga yelled into the radio. He turned to his soldiers guarding the rooftop perimeter, "Everyone watch the rooftop entrance! We have incoming tangos!" He, then, turned to the pilot. "Get this thing ready to go! We're taking an early departure!"

"No. I'm not leaving you. We're almost there. Just hold on." Sesshomaru wrapped Inuyasha's arm around his shoulder and began to trudge down the zigzag hallway the led to the roof access staircase. Kairi held onto Inuyasha's hand as Sesshomaru led them up the stairs to the roof. Once on the roof, Sesshomaru carried Inuyasha to the edge, where he collapsed to the ground unconscious.
"What are we going to do Sesshomaru?" Kairi asked staring at him with her big, red eyes.
"We just have to wait. The others knew I was coming here, maybe they'll come for us." Sesshomaru smiled at the girl. He refused to let this girl feel the fear that they may not make it out. Minutes flew by as they waited on the rooftop. It was less than 30 minutes until the chopper took off from City Hall. Sesshomaru stared out at the city from the roof of the police station.

Inuyasha coughed heavily, finally regaining consciousness. He sat up slowly, turning to look at Sesshomaru, who was grinning down at him. "How long was I out?" Inuyasha asked rubbing his head.
"About 15 minutes." Sesshomaru grinned, but it faded when the door slammed open and a mob of carriers stumbled onto the rooftop. "Fuck!" Sesshomaru drew his glock and began to fire at the carriers. Inuyasha grabbed his AR-15 and joined Sesshomaru in the battle from his kneeling position. Kairi screamed from behind them as the door beside them slammed open. Sesshomaru swung his gun around to fire but stopped short, when he realized the muzzle of his glock was in the face of Mitsuki. She didn't hesitate to run by Sesshomaru and begin to fire at the carriers with an AK-47 she had found.
Dear Kami, if you're up there, I could use a little help right now. Sesshomaru thought to himself as he continued to fire upon the growing mob of carriers. They were getting surrounded. There were just too many of them. Suddenly, a spotlight hit them and Inuyasha looked up to see a cargo chopper above them, lowering it's cargo gate. The chopper turned so the gate was facing the rooftop and as soon as the gate lowered enough, four figures began to fire upon the mob of carriers approaching Inuyasha and the others. Inuyasha grinned to himself and continued to fire at the mob.
The chopper lowered itself until its cargo gate was within jumping distance. "Yo! Sesshomaru, Let's go!" Miroku yelled from the chopper as he fired at the carriers. Kagome ran to the gate to see what was going on, and instantly, she spotted the silver haired man kneeling beside Sesshomaru. Her eyes began to water as she recognized Inuyasha.
"INUYASHA!" Kagome screamed over the gunfire. Inuyasha turned to see Kagome standing behind Miroku with tears running down her cheeks. Inuyasha grinned and stood firing at the mob relentlessly.
"Sesshomaru! Get Kairi onto the chopper! Go" Inuyasha yelled stepping in front of everyone. Sesshomaru nodded and turned to look at Kairi. He picked her up and ran towards the chopper, leaping off the edge of the roof. Mid-air, Sesshomaru did his best to throw Kairi to the safety of the chopper. She landed hard on the iron gate of the chopper. Kagome and Rin instantly ran to the girl's side helping her up and pulling her further into the chopper. Kouga dropped his rifle and grabbed the arm of Sesshomaru, who had barely made the jump to the gate.
Inuyasha turned to look at Sesshomaru being pulled into the chopper. He, then turned to Mitsuki, "Mitsuki! Let's go!" She nodded at him then they both turned to jump. Inuyasha jumped with everything he had, he hit the gate of chopper hard, losing his breath as he landed, but he noticed that Mitsuki hadn't jumped yet.
"Inuyasha!" Inuyasha looked back to see a bloody and damaged General Simmons, holding Mitsuki around the throat. "Inuyasha! You bastard!" Simmons yelled at him.
"Mitsuki! No!" Inuyasha picked up his rifle to fire at Simmons, but Mitsuki yelled back at him.
"Just go, Inuyasha! Leave me!" Mitsuki yelled turning to face Simmons. "I'm already dead anyway." As she turned, Inuyasha spotted dozens of bitemarks up and down her back. Mitsuki reached behind Simmons with a grin on her face.
Everything after that happened in slow motion. Mitsuki had pulled the pin of a frag grenade in one of Simmons' packs just as the mob of carriers, surrounded them. The explosion that followed was massive, shaking the chopper with such force that everyone lost their balance. Inuyasha stared at the carnage of the explosion as the chopper began to ascend away from the police station. Kouga was yelling something to his pilot but Inuyasha could hear nothing.
He had failed in protecting Matsu and Mitsuki. Two people that didn't deserve to die yet and had put so much faith in him. Inuyasha balled his hands into a fists and punched the gate of the chopper with such force that his knuckles split open on impact. He screamed as he continued to punch the gate, his body going into a frenzy. He was numb, he didn't feel that his knuckles had been split open and were now broken, or that blood from his fists was splashing onto his arms. Someone was grabbing his shoulders, lifting him up.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed his name, placing her hands on either side of his face, trying to get him to look at her. He looked at her with dark, emotionless eyes. A look that sent fear through Kagome. He was still screaming, even as he struggled against Sesshomaru who was holding his arms. "Inuyasha! Please! Stop!" Kagome cried against him, then finally kissed his lips roughly. Instantly, Inuyasha stopped struggling against Sesshomaru, and melted against Kagome's lips. He wrapped his bloody hands around her waist and pulled her close, deepening their kiss. They kissed for what seemed like eternity before finally breaking apart.
Inuyasha turned to the others, who all wore worried looks. "I'm sorry guys." He whispered softly. Rin and Sango immediately ran over to him and hugged him. He smiled against their hugs.
"We thought you were dead!" Rin cired into the shoulder of her brother in law. He patted her back before pulling away, then she smacked his arm extremely hard. "Why didn't you tell us you and Kagome were having a baby!?"
Inuyasha chuckled and looked at Kagome, who blushed a deep shade of red. "I see you let it slip." She nodded shyly. He looked back at Rin, "Well, at least now you know."
Kouga grinned at the group he had rescued, "Command, mission is complete. Simmons is dead and I have a group of survivors with me."
Survivors? You get those people State side right now. Command order Kouga, causing him to grin.
"Yes Sir." He turned back to the group that had made their way to the gate of the cargo bay. Their story was an incredible one. They were the only survivors his team had seen in a couple of days and they had fought their way north through hundreds of those monsters, and now, here they stand. Damaged and all banged up, but alive.
The sun was beginning to rise over the horizon. Streaks of pink and orange filled the sky as the group looked out of the cargo bay. Inuyasha turned to Kagome once more, and kissed her passionately, rubbing his hand against her belly. She wrapped her arms around his neck, smiling against his lips. He pulled away from her and whispered, "I love you, Kagome."
"I love you too, Inuyasha." Kagome smiled before kissing him again. Kairi squeezed her way between Inuyasha and Kagome. Inuyasha smiled down at the girl then picked her up and hugger her tightly.
"Kagome, I'd like you to meet Kairi." Inuyasha said releasing Kairi from their hug, "Kairi, this is my girlfriend, Kagome." Kairi looked at Kagome and jumped into her arms.
"Inuyasha talked about you so much. I got scared I'd never get a chance to meet you." Kairi whispered into Kagome's neck as they hugged. Kagome kissed the girl's cheek as she squeezed her.
"Well, here I am." Kagome giggled.
Kairi turned to Inuyasha, "She's gorgeous. Just like you said." Kagome looked up at Inuyasha with a smile.
"I know, sweetheart. I know." He took Kairi from Kagome's arms and wrapped his arm around Kagome's waist.
They continued to stare out of the cargo bay as Japan began to fade in the distance. What had started as an ordinary day had turned into a week in hell and unfathomable nightmares. They fought their way through a destroyed city north to Kyoto, that had also fallen prey to the virus. Even in the shadow of extreme adversity, they refused to give up hope, and managed to make it out alive. They all turned to one another with smiles on their faces, knowing that they had survived the day the world ended.

Well, sadly, I must bring this story to a close. It's been a joy to write and I hope everyone that read it enjoyed it just as much. It might be a couple days before I begin writing my next story, because I get a sort of separation anxiety after I complete a story. Sorry, this one wasn't extremely long. Thank you to everyone that followed this story and thank you for all the reviews. It really means alot. I think this story got like 1300 views on FFN and 300 or so on MediaMiner, which is alot more than I thought it would get. So, again, thank you! I'd like to give a special thanks to Princess Inume, who was a constant and dedicated reader. Be sure to check out her stories, there's a link to her page in my bio. I'll possibly be co-writing a story with her, if we ever get decide on what it'll be about. So, look out for that. And one last time, thank you, thank you, thank you for all the support. I love you all.
Sincerely,
OMG Lord Zed/xSkyLiNeZx
