Kagome has just shot Tokajin's Shikon Jewel shards out of his back and they have gone into the tree. Tokajin: *runs towards Kagome* Kagome: *tries to back up but she's on the edge of the cliff* Tokajin: How dare you! Inuyasha: *running after him* Get down Kagome! Kagome: *falls to the ground* Inuyasha: *rams into Tokajin and falls off the cliff with him* Kagome: Inuyasha! Inuyasha: *stares at her as he falls* Kagome! Kagome: *runs to the edge of the cliff staring at him* Inuyasha! Inuyasha! Tokajin: *as he's falling* Serves you right! With a mortal's body, you'll die too. Inuyasha: Maybe so... But...atleast, if Kagome is alive... Kagome: *crying* Inuyasha! Inuyasha! *The tree absorbs the Shikon shards and it's roots grow, grabbing the falling Tokajin and Inuyasha* Tokajin: Oh! Human-faced Fruit Tree! You're rescuing me! Tree: No! I just don't want to lose precious nourishment! Tokajin: W-what?! Tree: *wraps its roots entirely around Tokajin* Now I've attained it! The freedom of movement! I have ample shards of the Shikon Jewel now. And I am all-powerful! *moves towards Inuyasha* Now then half-demon, become one with me! *completely wraps Inuyasha* Inuyasha: Damn...daybreak at last! Tree: *laughs* I never though I'd get a half-demon as well! Everything will go as planned now! Inuyasha: No way! *now in hanyou form, slashes through the roots with Tetsusaiga* Prepare to die, Tokajin! Or should I say...Tree of the Human-faced Fruit! Tree: Just try, half-demon! *extends its vines* Inuyasha: Take this! Kaze no Kizu! *destroys the tree and catches the Shikon shards* Alright! Back ontop of the cliff Miroku and Shippo have returned to their normal size. Shippo: Yes! We're back to normal! Miroku: Tokajin probably died, undoing his spells. Those men in the box garden have probably reverted back, too. Kagome: Tokajin is dead? Shippo: Then Inuyasha too...? Kagome: N-no! *kneeling* Miroku: When Inuyasha fell, it was still dark...dawn hadn't broken yet. He probably...died... Shippo: *starts crying* Inuyasha is dead! Kagome: No! Inuyasha is alive! Shippo: But he was hurt badly and no mortal could survive a fall from a cliff like this! Miroku: Don't cry Shippo. Let us pray for his repose. Kagome: Miroku... Miroku: Inuyasha had no regrets. He wanted to save you, even if it cost him his life. Kagome: To save me? As if that makes me happy! *clenches her fists* He had no demon power, yet he acted so foolishly! *starts crying and yelling* Inuyasha was stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid Inuyasha! What good is it if he's dead?! What am I to do from now?! Inuyasha: *walks up behind them* Miroku: Yes, he was foolish. Shippo: Yes, he was! Inuyasha was the biggest fool in the world! Inuyasha: Hey! You guys...just because I'm not around...call me "fool" and "stupid" will ya?! Shippo: *jumps on Inuyasha* You're alive Inuyasha! Miroku: I knew you wouldn't die so easily. Kagome: Thank goodness! Inuyasha: I ain't so easy to kill! Stop thinking rubbish! Kagome: *turns around angrily* Did you say "rubbish"?! Of course we worried! Inuyasha: *taken back* W-what-! Kagome: *goes to him* We knew you were overtaxing yourself! Shippo: *jumps off Inuyasha* Inuyasha: But I'm alive, so what's the big deal?! Stop crying! Kagome: *grabs him and shakes him* I'm not crying! Inuyasha: You are! Kagome: I'm not! Inuyasha: You are! Kagome: Am not! Inuyasha: You are! Kagome: Am not! Inuyasha: You are! Kagome: Am not! Inuyasha: You are! Kagome: Quiet! Sit! Inuyasha: *falls to the ground* Shippo: He's dead. |
