Author's Note: Wow... First fic people! After months of random ideas running in my head, I finally have found the will to actually write the story (Although I'm not sure if that's a good thing). Anyways... Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Yep, Inuyasha is not owned by me... Plus the quote in the beginning of the story is taken from Kill Bill Vol. 1 (Wow! Anyone else seen that movie? I love it )

Now on with the story...

A Dish Best Served Cold

Chapter 1: The Wheels in Motion


Kagome carefully brushed her raven locks, trying, unsuccessfully, to calm her frantic heart. Securely wrapped in a fluffy white towel, she glanced at her foggy bathroom mirror, and bit her lip.

'Maybe he has forgotten?' She wondered, staring at her reflection, unsure. 'Three years... Already...'

She shook her head. "No! He remembers... He couldn't have forgotten our promise," she reassured herself. Setting the brush down firmly, she walked out of the bathroom confidently.

'He has to remember...'


Fortunately, the cab ride to Tokyo International Airport had been a long one - giving Kagome some time to collect her thoughts.

So deep was she entrenched within her silent reflections, she almost did not hear the taxi driver announce their arrival. Shaking her head to snap out of her daydreams of a certain silver-haired individual, she forked over to the driver a needlessly generous tip as she stepped out from the white vehicle.

Taking in a big breath, she walked into the large, intimidating Tokyo Narita Airport building.


"So he's coming back... Is he?" A tiny smirk graced the man's lips, revealing a sharp fang. "Things will turn interesting..."


The large black sign next to the airport gate cheerfully chimed the airplane's landing from New York. The sliding doors of the gates opened, and a tall man with striking silver hair stepped out, apparently just having landed. His amber eyes sought the one person he wanted to see...

And there she was.

Dressed in a pink knee-length skirt and plain white shirt, Higurashi Kagome seemed to radiate girlish innocence - but the womanly sophistication was also there. She stood quietly, seeming calm and relaxed; her torrent blue-grey eyes, however, showed anything but. They were darting back and forth worriedly, trying to find-

She let out a gasp. "You're here!" She cried, jumping up and down in exhilaration.

He gave her a genuine smile - something he did not do often - and walked over to her, his bags momentarily forgotten. "Of course I am... You silly girl," he berated, gathering her into his arms. She was just as he remembered three years ago: soft, warm, and sweet. Tears formed in her eyes as she gazed up at him lovingly.

"Welcome back," she said softly, "Sesshomaru."


Uh oh... Please don't hurt me!!! I promise, it's going to become InuKag later... Well, unless you'd rather have SessKag? Tell me which pairing you prefer. Hopefully it's InuKag (I'm a very big InuKag supporter) but if you want SessKag... I aim to please. I still don't know how this story is going to end... So, technically, anything is fair game.

You know what to do next!!!
