Kagome's Decision
Kagome sat in her room. Since she had come back from the feudal era she had been sitting there and was looking at the wall. Not that the wall was very interesting; no, she didn't really see the wall. There was something else in her head: InuYasha. Kikyo. Together. Hugging each other.
Kagome shook her head trying to get rid of this image. But she couldn't. The picture kept coming back. Every time she heard the same words, InuYasha's words.
"I will keep you safe, always."
Kagome raised her hand and rubbed it over her tired eyes. Again and again she thought about it, tried to figure out what it was what Kikyo had but she didn't, tried to figure out why InuYasha chose another woman. But she didn't come to a decision.
The girl let herself fall back onto her soft mattress. She was looking at the ceiling, then her eyes travelled to the window. Kagome saw how the bright sunbeams were throwing beautiful shadows on the leaves of the tree.
When will the sun shine in her heart again? Or should she better ask, will the sun ever shine in her heart again?
Her glance was going further, uninterested, and then she was looking at two inconspicuous objects on her desk. The jewel shards. Kagome thought that she should get up and get them but decided against it. Why should she? Would it change something? No!
She shut her eyes only to open them wide seconds later when the hated and by this time familiar image appeared. She sighed.
"Kagome. Phone . Ayumi. " the muffled voice of her mother reached Kagome. Ayumi, her friend was calling her? Kagome hesitated one moment.
"Tell her I don't feel good...I will call her tomorrow."
Silence was her response. Only unclearly could Kagome hear her mother talk with Ayumi. The telephone call ended and Kagome's thoughts travelled back to the previous day.
Suddenly she jumped up and caught the shards. Enough! It was enough for her. InuYasha made her lie to her friends. No! She would end everything, now. Kikyo was more important than her? Ok, then Kikyo should help him gather the remaining shards. She, Kagome, would go back to her time and forget everything that had to do with InuYasha.
She didn't bother to change her clothes because she was not planning to stay in the feudal era longer then necessary.
It was hard for her to climb up the well on the other side. Then she sat down on the edge and waited. InuYasha would come around sooner or later. She didn't want to give the impression that she was searching for him.
Sun began to go down slowly and Kagome was still sitting there in silence.
Suddenly the bushes split and the hanyou came out. Surprised, he stood still and stared at the girl. 'Obviously he didn't expect me.' Kagome thought. 'I don't mind, I will be gone soon anyway.'
Bravely she went towards the waiting InuYasha. She saw the uncertainty in his eyes and was happy about that secretly. Obviously he didn't know what he had to expect.
Kagome opened her palm and the shards were twinkling in the beams of the setting sun.
"Here InuYasha, I think you will need them."
Slowly, the boy reached for the pink shards and looked hesitantly from Kagome to the shards of the Jewel. His hand hovered over hers.
"Kagome, I..."
Before InuYasha could say more, Kagome took his hand, turned it, laid the shards inside and closed it. Then she took a step back but held her head down.
"InuYasha, it doesn't interest me. Do what you want."
Speechless InuYasha was looking at her. He wasn't used to be treated so harshly by her.
"Kagome, listen..."
"No, I won't listen any longer. I have done everything for you for too long, but have you ever noticed it? No! Because you only thought about yourself. Ok, let that be history. You have made a decision, InuYasha. I have to respect it. Goodbye."
She turned around and wanted to jump into the well, but InuYasha's voice held her back.
"Kagome don't go like that. Let me just..."
Kagome could feel the tears in her eyes and then she felt InuYasha's warm hand on her shoulder. She wiped away the tears because she didn't want him to see her cry. But what should she do?
"Sit. " She knew that wasn't fair but she didn't know anything better.
She had barely finished the word when she felt his hand slip down her shoulder and a loud crash announced his landing on the ground. Without looking back she jumped in the well. InuYasha's voice haunted her as she painfully struck the bottom of the well.
"Stupid bitch. What was that for? Go away and let me alone. Who needs you? Not me. Feh."
Kagome heard him get up again and disappear cursing into the forest. She sat down in the well, pulled her knees to her chest, hugged them and let her tears fall.
His words had hurt her more than she wanted to admit. That was the reason why she hadn't called him when she found that she couldn't go back to her time. She should have known that she would need the shards to travel back.
She was alone now, without a friend, without everything else in a strange Era.
She cried and cried until she had no more tears. Then she saw the darkness of the cold well and stared at it. She would go back home, whatever she had to do. But, she corrected herself, one thing she surely wouldn't do: Ask InuYasha to help her.
