a selfish wish

It was over.
Naraku was dead and the jewel complete.... but at what cost?
Frozen in terror the group stared at their friend, the dead daiyoukai pressed to her heart.
"Kagome, don't..." Inuyasha growled hurt, still not able to believe what happend.
How could Kikyo do this. How could he been so blind.
His eyes turned to the broken arrow, lodged in his brother's chest.
Again the dead priestess had tried to kill Kagome, this time to get the Shikon no Tama, right after their victory.
Again he had failed to save her from his dead love,..... but his bastard of brother did not.
"Kagome-sama, please. I'm sure Lord Sesshomaru wouldn't approve of what you are going to do."
Miroku tried to reason with the girl in vain.
"I'm sorry guys," a lonely tear rolled down her face, "just this once let me be selfish."
And before any of them could act, she made her wish.
With a deep breath her love came back to life... while the jewel in her hand turned black...
and with it her once pure soul.
