Sango rolled over and grabbed at her pillow, trying to block out the terrible ringing sound that had woken her from her peaceful slumber. ‘Oh wait, that’s just the phone. Damned phone, ringing so early in the morning…’ Unfortunately, the phone didn’t want to stop ringing, so Sango eventually had to answer.

“…hello?” she answered groggily.

After that final, bloody battle with Naraku, I handed him the jewel. The accursed thing that had taken us close to a year to complete, I handed it to him to do with as he pleased. I remember it clearly. Inuyasha hadn’t hesitated. He held it tightly in his hard for a moment, and then made his wish.

‘Please, Shikon no Tama, give Kagome my lifespan.’ So very noble. With his lifespan, we would live together forever. Everlasting love. The jewel had glowed brightly before vanishing.
