Miroku, Sango and others in “Unfinished Business”

Miroku

... I had the chance to destroy Naraku. If I had done it, things wouldn't have ended up this way.

Sango

Miroku...

Miroku

But I didn't do it. (clenches his fist) I was so afraid for my own life, that I hesitated to open the Wind Tunnel! That woman saved my life, she needed my help, and I just-

Sango

(grabs his hand) That's not true. I think Kikyo knew what was going to happen, and she wanted you to survive for my sake.

Miroku

Sango...

Sango

I thought I despised Kikyo. All I knew, was that she was willing to sacrifice my brother and his shard to defeat Naraku. His life didn't seem to matter to her. (tearfully) However, when I saw her try to save Koga, I realized I was wrong about her. Kikyo was fighting to protect Kohaku's life- she'd been fighting to protect all of us!

Koga

(thinking) Well, my Jewel Shards are gone... but I'm still alive. Was that your plan for me, Kikyo?

Kagome

(crying) It didn't work! I thought I could save her, but I couldn't do anything! It took me too long- I had too much doubt- I couldn't get back in time to save her! Poor Kikyo...

Koga

(staring at Kikyo and Inuyasha) Damn that Naraku. He kept telling her that she would never see Inuyasha again, but... he made it in time.
