"Are you kidding me?" shouted Inuyasha incredulously, "You expect me to let you go back with no guarantee you would return. I cannot believe you would even ask me that."
Kagome stared at him with tears flowing freely from her eyes, she had known he would be furious at her and would question her loyalty to after three years of marriage and being mated for the same amount of time. She knew he would hate her for wanting to protect her family, the family from the future that she would never see.
"Please, I am begging you, Inuyasha," she said knowing that she could not make him understand that she had the vision for reason, "let me go I thought you all people would understand what it was like to sit by and do nothing to save someone you love and then watch them die. Or in this know that they will die." The words had left her mouth before she could even stop them from flowing freely as her tears had been doing up until now. She covered her face with her hands and turned towards the well had not worked in six years.
Inuyasha for his part understood and knew that this was difficult for her. He too understood what it was like to not be able to do anything when someone you loved was going to die or was dying. He wanted to go with her but was unsure how to ask her. He was grateful that they had not had pups yet. He was glad that he had wanted to wait a couple more years. If she were just taking him with her that he would not have gotten so upset but she wanted to go alone and leave him behind. That was the one thing that made him angry and why he refused to allow her to go through the well
"Kagome, you are not listening to reason. What if you go through and cannot get back? What am I supposed to do? We are mates. How do you think I could live for 500 years before he could see you again? Why would you even ask me to suffer that way it damn near killed my mother? She lived most of her life before she died long after father was gone, when she finally died from loneliness and heartache. Would you really expect me to accept that and not that you would die?" Inuyasha's eyes were overflowing with tears he did not care that she could see them or who could hear him crying for the love that was trying to leave him behind.
While the two were arguing they had no way of knowing that there was another pair of golden-colored eyes watching the scene. Those eyes could see and the nose could smell the growing demonic aura that was slowly coming from the white-haired hanyou as his anger rose towards the miko. Those eyes could see that tragedy was about to befall the woman and was unsure of what to do to prevent it. They were uncertain as to why they should even care.
Inuyasha's anger was rising higher and higher as he continued to stare down the woman in front of him. He loved her with all his heart. 'Why is she making me so angry despite having Tetsusaiga at my side? I can feel my youkai blood start to boil as my anger is rising but why?'
"Do you really hate my family that much?" cried Kagome, "Sometimes I wonder why you bothered mating me if you honestly hate me and them so much."
That was the last straw for Inuyasha with all his rage building he could no longer control his actions and as if he was watching someone else, he felt his arm pulled back, his hand stretched out as if to slap the air. Then almost in slow motion his arm swung forward in his palm and claws connected with her face causing deep gashes to full horizontally across her face. He could smell her blood and her tears as they both flowed freely over her face. He watched her in horror as she dropped to her knees clutching her now mangled face.
