Done.

That was the only word she could think of as she threw her belongings in suitcases. For six years, she had dedicated herself to this marriage, and now she was leaving him. As Kagome took one last look around her bedroom, she was filled with an overwhelming sense of despair. How could he do this? How, after all these years of happy marriage, could he sleep with Kikyo? How could he destroy the life they fought so hard to build? She had dedicated her life to Inuyasha, to their past and their future, and he threw it all away…

Taking a deep breath, Kagome zipped up her suitcases, and hauled them out to her car. She made another sweep of the house, to make sure she didn't forget anything. She left only one photo: a shot from their wedding day, the two looking so happy. She walked silently from room to room, double-checking everything, the tears falling freely down her cheeks. There was one room in particular that she headed for now, her daughter Yuki's room.

Kagome quietly opened the door and stepped in, not wanting to wake the sleeping infant. This sweet little baby was her world, her miracle baby. She and Inuyasha had tried to have children for years, and had only recently been blessed with this sweet little girl. She was Kagome's reason for living, and now she was her reason for leaving. She did not want her daughter to grow up in a divided home. She wanted her to know, not every princess lives happily ever after with her prince. Sometimes the princess has to make her own happy ending.

She pulled out Yuki's little pink suitcases, and began filling them with all her clothes, toys, and everything else she could grab. She snapped the little cases closed and put them in her car, before returning for her daughter. Kagome gently lifted Yuki into her arms, holding her close. She closed her eyes and rubbed Yuki's little puppy ears. She reached into the baby's crib and grabbed Yuki's baby blanket Mama had made for her, and the stuffed dog Souta had bought. Kagome walked quickly back out to the car, and strapped Yuki into her car seat. She needed to hurry. Inuyasha would be home soon, and if she had any chance of leaving, it had to be now.

Kagome tucked Yuki's baby blanket and puppy into the car seat, and tweaked her little puppy ears before getting in the driver's seat. Her hands shook as she put her key in the ignition. She put her head in her hands, leaning on the wheel. Was she really doing this? Could she even go through with it all? Looking up, she saw Yuki in the rearview mirror. Her daughter opened her sleepy, golden eyes and yawned. Kagome smiled and steeled her resolve. She turned the key and opened the garage door. She closed her eyes, said a quick prayer for strength, and backed out of the driveway into the road.

She looked one last time at the house where she thought she was happy, and faltered. Looking back at her daughter one more time, Kagome found her strength, and drove away into the night.
