Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to InuYasha and company. And I do not own the rights to the song Slipped Away by Avril Lavigne.

Summary: A once shot song fic about Kagome loosing her love to the song Slipped away by Avril Lavigne.

Authoress' Note This is one where you really gotta be listening to the song to bring it all together.

Kagome walked from the scene of dispare. Naraku was defeated, but at a great cost; the lives of her friends. And most importantly, the life of her one true love.

It was not fair that she had finaly found the one she was meant to be with, and no sooner he was taken away with out a good bye.

Walking aimlessly threw the blood and gore she looked at her fallen comrades.

Na na, na na na, na na

Kikyo's body was nothing but ash. InuYasha had such a large gaping hole in his chest, his heart literaly ripped out.

As tears slid down her blood staind cheeks she looked from friend to friend.

I miss you, miss you so bad

I don't forget you, oh it's so sad

Sango had died in the arms of her love, while protecting her brother.

The only ones left alive were her and shippo.

I hope you can hear me

I remember it clearly

She walked to her adopted son, who was sobbing over the body of (kylala). She carefully picked the young kitsune up and craddled his body to her breast.

As she walked away, she saw the one she loves with all her heart. She changed direction and walked to him.

The day you slipped away

Was the day I found it won't be the same

Ooooh

Knealing down she wiped silver, blood soaked strands of hair away from his beautiful face. She silently closed his eyelids, one last time.

She just couldn't tear herself away from him. While still holding the crying kit, she traced the cresent moon on her love's forehead, then bent to kiss him one last time.

Na na na na na na na

Her heart ached with the thought that Sesshoumaru would never be able to wrap those strong arms around her ever again.

She wepped harder at the thought that they would never share a secret smile not ever again.

Her body convulsed with sobs as she thought that he would never again be able to tell her he loves her.

Or her him.

She cried out when she thought that she would never again be able to kiss his warm and tender lips.

Never again.

I didn't get around to kiss you

Goodbye on the hand

In the moment after her outburst she felt the tiniest of arms surround her neck.

"It's okay mama Kagome. We have each other. I'll never leave. Never ever, I promase!"

Hugging the boy tighter to her chest she assured him, "Yes, yes baby, we have each other. And I shall never leave you either. You have my word."

I wish that I could see you again

I know that I can't

With that she stood. Swayed. And continued to walk. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. It was so hard not to look back.

But she couldn't. She would not allow herself to look back. She had to be strong for her son. And for herself.

She couldn't bare the thought of leaving him alone in this world.

Oooooh

I hope you can hear me cause I remember it clearly

As she walked she headed Southeast to the bone eaters well. She walked towards peace.

As they arrived in the clearing Kagome took the completed jewel of four souls from the chain around her neck.

She had shippo climb to her soulders while she held the pink swirling mass of gem between both her palms.

Closing her eyes she prayed harder than she ever had before.

'Please Kami, Let me live in happiness with my son, Shippo. And let these souls that lye in this stone be put to rest once and for all.'

The day you slipped away

*7 Months later*

Was the day I found it won't be the same

Ooooh

"Mama!" An encredibly cute little japanese boy, with the oddest red hair, cried out as he ran to a beautiful young woman in a silvery blue summer dress.

"Shippo!" She cried as she picked him up and swung him around to keep balance. "How was your day at school my lovely young man?"

"It was the best! Mrs. Kaddie had us draw pictures of who we admire most! And I drew one of you!"

"Aw baby boy that is the best thing anyone has said and done about me!"

"And we also have a new student!"

"Oh, really?!"

"Yeah! Her name is Reini!" He said, then whispered, "she looks a lot like Rin did!"

Looking up to find this little girl, her heart stopped cold, as she saw a whisp of silver hair turn around the corner.

I had my wake up

Won't you wake up

I keep asking why

And I can't take it

It wasn't fake

It happened, you passed by

Holding her son closer Kagome fallowed the man around the building. Her heart beat faster at an impossible rate.

"Mama... was that..." the young boy started but could not finish his sentence. He didn't want to get his hopes up... Or more he didn't want to get his mama's hopes up.

Picking up her pace she called out to him, "Hello?! Um, sir?"

Now you are gone, now you are gone

There you go, there you go

Somewhere I can't bring you back

Now you are gone, now you are gone

There you go, there you go,

Somewhere your not coming back

The tall man turned around and looked at her with his peircing amber eyes. Amber eyes so much like his.

"Yes? Have we met?"

Her heart sinking fast she made up for it with a bright smile.

"No, but it's such a small school, that you have to be the father of Reine, I believe?"

"Oh, yes, of course. And this little red head must be Shippo. I must say Reine is very attached to him. We must get them together for a play-date sometime."

"Oh, absolutly. I'm sure he would love that. Well, if you'll excuse my manors. My name is Kagome, I jus thought I should meet the new parent on the block."

"It is very nice to meet you Kagome, I'm Saturninus."

Kagome covered her breaking heart with another smile, "It was nice to meet you Saturninus. We had better get going. But we should deffinitly set up that play-date soon."

The day you slipped away

Was the day i found it won't be the same noo..

The day you slipped away

Was the day that i found it won't be the same oooh...

Shippo knew his mother was hurting. He was too, he had really hoped...

He hugged his mama tighter as they walked off.

Na na, na na na, na na

Kagome paused suddenly as the wind carried a single whispered message.

"So we meet again."

She turned back around quickly, but alas Saturninus was no where to be seen.

I miss you
