To Forget The Unforgettable

By: Youkai Dreams

Disclaimer: “Admit it! You don't own InuYasha!” I watch the horrified face of Jerry Mouse turn his gaze toward me, and gulp. “Oh, not good enough to admit it, huh? Am I going to have to take you in Mr. Mouse?” Jerry began to stutter. “B-b-but s-s-sir-“ “MA'AM,” I rudely interrupt” Jerry looks at me with a shocked expression. “Whoa, whoa, whoa,” He begins to crack up. “You mean you're a girl? You've got to be kidding me! All this time I thought you were a man! Whoo, isn't that fu-“ He shut's up at the look on my face. “S-sorry ma'am. But...you wrote this story....not me...” @_@ “Oh, heh. Yeah. I forgot! Sorry dude!” I look at you. “I. Do. Not. Own. InuYasha.” I face Jerry “Sorry again, dude,” I say before walking away. “Hey, WAIT! You forgot to untie me!!!!”

A/N: I re-wrote this chapter, and the next two chapters will not flow properly until I re-write and post those. Ne patient with me. I will try to have them posted by tonight/

Chapter One: Farewell

“No!” She cried demandingly. “You aren't going anywhere...not now. I absolutely refuse to lose you again. Wake up now, InuYasha!” Kagome screamed. An unbearable emptiness filled her body as she watched Kikyou drag him deeper into the abyss.

“Silence yourself, Kagome! InuYasha belongs to me, not you. He is in love with me, this is what he wants. He said so himself, aloud. You and I were there. You cannot deny this” Kikyou retorted, drawing InuYasha further and further into the ultimate darkness.

“Kikyou, please; don't do this. We still need to find and defeat Naraku. Why are you doing this? InuYasha wants to kill Naraku for you, to avenge your death. Why won't you let him do so?” Tears rimmed Kagome's eyelids, but she would not let them escape.

“Naraku is no concern of mine. He tried to separate InuYasha and I, but did not succeed. We are still together. We can still be together.”

Kagome took a step closer. “Kikyou, you are dead. InuYasha is alive. You two can never be together. No matter how close you think you are to him, you are that much further away. The line between the living and the dead is thin, but impenetrable.” Kagome stared straight into Kikyou's eyes. “You can touch InuYasha, but can you really feel him? You can look at him, but can you really see him? Kikyou, you can talk to him, but can he really hear you? Can you truly feel him like I can?”

Kikyou softened her glare and smiled. “InuYasha will come with me, and die with me. We will be together at long last, and nothing will separate us. The boundary between life and death is thin, and so easy to shatter. Our love has already defeated time, and we will defeat death also.”

Kagome took another step. “Kikyou, your love did nothing. It was your hatred that kept you yearning to find InuYasha. Your hatred toward him kept you here. You love him again because you know he still loves you' you know the truth.” Her voice cracked. “Do you truly love him, Kikyou? Do you truly want to be with him?”

Kikyou and InuYasha were barely visible now. “This is InuYasha's choice, Kagome. He has chosen me. Bid us farewell as we take our final leave. We shall forever be together.”

Tears escaped Kagome's eyes without her knowing it. She was too weak to cry. With a burst of speed, she ran toward InuYasha and Kikyou, and began frantically screaming his name.

“InuYasha, InuYasha...wake up! Inuyasha, please! Wake up! InuYasha!” Her body collided with a strong barrier, and flung her backward violently. She began to cry. “InuYasha,” she whispered quietly.

Kikyou was staring at her when she felt something move in her arms. InuYasha's ears twitched, and he opened his eyes. He started straight at Kagome.

He took a while to absorb his surroundings before leaping out of the hole, and glanced at Kikyou. “Why wouldn't you let me say goodbye?” He asked gently before walking over to Kagome's side.

“Why are you doing this, InuYasha? How could you do this to me?” Her voice was filled with sadness. She looked up at him. “Tell me this isn't true.” InuYasha stared at her, a heartrending look on his face. “Tell me this isn't real,” she said, raising her voice a bit.

InuYasha bent down toward her, and put his arm on her back. “Kagome, I belong with Kikyou, I'm really sorry. I have to tell you though...you mean a lot to me, I can't deny that. I don't know what I did to deserve friends like You, Sango, Miroku, Shippou, Kirara, and all the friends I've made in our journey. I don't know why you all chose to tolerate me, especially when you didn't have to. I really can't thank you guys enough.”

Kagome was crying hard, although she tried her best not to make a sound. With a broken voice, she answered him. “It's because we love you, InuYasha. We can't help but love you...” Her voice trailed off. She looked away.

“I love you all too Kagome, as really dear friends. I won't forget you, Kagome. I won't forget any of you. I promise. You've all made me so happy, even if I never showed it much.” InuYasha cupped Kagome's chin in his hand, and brought his face closer to hers.

“Whenever I see the sun, I'll see your smiling face, and I'll remember.” He brought his lips to hers in a loving kiss, and departed. “Goodbye, Kagome”

Kagome watched his descending form as he picked Kikyou up, and slowly walked off. She sniffed.

“Goodbye InuYasha.”

Next Chapter: Kagome's Encounter

A/N: Alright, there's the first chapter -redone-. Please tell me how good it is, if you're reading this for the first time. If you've already reviewed for the chap I had before this, then you don't have to (well, you can't since you can only review once per chapter), lol. As I've stated in the author's note above, chapter three really won't flow with this new chapter (not that it flowed any better before @_@). I really want to thank all of you who are taking the time to read this!

Phrase of the day: What's a chicken?
