Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha, but I do own the OC's in this story. I do not gain a profit from this story.
This is my first story so please bear with me. I don't always have computer access so updates may take a while. I will try my best to update as much as possible. This is going to be a slowly developed story so don't expect action or romance right away. I don't have a word processor, only notepad so please bear with me again. If anyone knows how I may acquire a word processor possibly for free or really cheap, please tell me. Please review so that I may know what I should improve on. This is an OCxSesshomaru, but it will take a while for him to show up or very often. I don't believe in fast romances. Thanks!

"INUYASHA! SIT!"
Inuyasha crashes violently into the damp cratered ground as Kagome yells. "Gah!" Inuyasha moans as he hits the ground, feeling the impact through his entire body. Kagome turns around and picks up her slightly torn yellow backpack while she glances towards Inuyasha, frowning.
Sighing Kagome walks over to Kirara, tugging on her backpack. "Kirara, do you think you could give me a ride to the well?" Kirara looks up at her, mews, then flames surround her as she transforms into her larger neko form. Kirara turns around and looks at Kagome who climbs up on her back. Inuyasha, now sitting up in the crater, looks at Kagome, sneering he dusts off some of the dirt.
"Hey, wench, were the fuck do you think you're going? We still have shards to find!"
"Inuyasha...SIT, SIT, SIT, and SIT!"
Inuyasha crashes into the already large crater, making Sango and Miroku move towards Kagome and Kirara. Looking over at Sango she says, "I'll be back in a few days," and smiles as she looks over at Shippo, who runs up to her and hugs her. "You won't be too long, will you Kagome?" Shippo looks up at her anxiously.
"Don't worry Shippo; even if Inuyasha is an ass, I'll always come back for you."
"YAH!" yells Shippo as he jumps up and down "Don't forget about the candy!" Kagome laughs as she sets Shippo down on the ground "I won't."
She looks at Sango. "Should we meet at the Nakatsu village?" Sango looks over at Miroku who then nods. "Yes, that should be fine Kagome." Miroku smiles at Kagome while his hand starts to gravitate towards Sango's butt.
"Bye, Lady Kagome! We shall wait for you." SMACK "Miroku!" WHAM "Dammit you damn monk. Can't you keep your hands to yourself!" Sango yells as she starts swinging at Miroku, who was evading her Hiraikotsu while smirking.
Kagome smiles "Let's go Kirara." Kirara mews, lifts up into the air, and heads north towards Kaede's village.
Inuyasha's group
Shippo waves bye at Kagome as she leaves. *Poor Inuyasha...he really got it this time.* Shippo looks over at where Inuyasha was still laying. Shaking his head he hops down onto Inuyasha who appears unconcious at the moment.
"Hey, Inuyasha! Wake up! Kagome's gone back home; aren't you going to go after her?" Inuyasha moans as Shippo starts to jump up and down on him.
*Damn that little brat, what the fuck is wrong with him. Gah...damn Kagome, she didn't have to sit me that hard!* "INUYASHA!" Shippo yells into Inuyasha's ear. Inuyasha grabs Shippo and throws him at the nearest tree glaring at him as he rubs his ringing ear.
"Shut up you brat! I hear you alright!" Inuyasha mutters before getting out of the hole. He picks up his Tetsusaiga as he shakes his hair to get the last bit of dirt off. "Why does she do that everytime she gets
angry?" growls Inuyasha as he sits down by a tree.
"Well, Inuyasha you did deserve it." Sango spat at him as she hits Miroku on the head. "Oh! Ouch! Sango!" Miroku jumps out of the spot before a large hole fills it.
"What! How did I deserve that! That was overkill!"
Sango stops and turns towards him, putting her Hiraikotsu down. Sango sighs as she rubs the bridge of her nose. Looking up she glares at Inuyasha who was glaring back at her.
"First you went and saw Kikyo, you know the dead doll that you...you said you'd stop seeing, then while you were away trolloping with clay, we were attacked by Naraku's minions." Inuyasha grimances as Sango's voice raises "Not to mention if it hadn't been for Lord Sesshomaru we might of been seriously hurt. Kagome is just learning how to use her powers and the bow!" Inuyasha got up while shifting his feet. "AND!" Inuyasha's ears flatten against his head as he cringes. "You have the audacity to say that Kikyo had nothing to do with this! Kagura even said that you were an idiot and she's the enemy!" Sango huffs out as Miroku comes up to her and puts an arm around her.
"Come on Sango, there's no point in getting upset over him. He's not worth the aggravation."
(Sigh) "You're right Miroku."
Sango looks at Inuyasha who know looks really depressed. "I just wished things would be better for Kagome" she whispers to Miroku who nods.
Shippo who was watching this whole exchange looks at Inuyasha "Inuyasha...you care for Kagome right?" Inuyasha glances over at Shippo, "Yeah, why?" Shippo shifts his feet as he glances towards Miroku and Sango, who were closing camp. "If you care, why do you hurt her by going back to Kikyo?" Inuyasha glares and huffs at Shippo. "This doesn't concern you, Shippo. Why don't you go burn a tree or something?"
Inuyasha quickly walks over to Sango. "Well, we might as well hurry up if we're going to Nakatsu village. We need to get there before sunset if we want in." Shippo hops over and grabs a small pouch. "Why, Sango?" Sango looks over at him as she picks up her small sack. "Because moron, it's on Sesshomaru's land and if you're human you have to ask first before they lock up." Inuyasha rolls his eyes at him. Shippo sticks his tongue out at him and jumps up on Miroku's shoulder. Sango now having everything nods at Miroku and they start out towards Nakatsu village.
Inuyasha walks ahead of them when all of a sudden a familiar scent of clay and twigs waves under his nose. Quickly stopping, he looks towards a large set of trees where the scent was the strongest so far. He looks over to Miroku, "I'm not going with you guys. I'll meet up with you later." Inuyasha bounds off towards the east. Sango and Miroku look at each other, then back at where Inuyasha once was. Sango sighs and shakes her head. "Well, we might want to hurry."
"He went to see Kikyo, didn't he Sango?"
Sango sighs again as she looks up at Shippo. "Most likely Shippo...most likely."
Kagome's POV
Kagome looks up into the blue lightly cloudy sky and sighs. *Kami...Inuyasha..why...why did you go...grr..Why can't Kikyo stay away. Dammit everytime Kikyo comes around, Inuyasha disappears. I should just give up on him.* Kagome sighs and pets Kirara lightly on her head as Kirara lands down by the well. As she climbs down Kirara mews and licks her on her face. Kagome giggles, "I'm alright Kirara, but thanks."
Sighing she looks down at the well. *Apparently he just can't get over Kikyo and I'm just the "jewel shard finder"...I should just go back to my time and stay there!* Kirara nudges her as if she could feel Kagome's angst. Kagome smiles at Kirara. "No, I can't do that, now can I Kirara." She smiles and looks up at the sky again. Closing her eyes she feels calmer as she feels Kirara's fur under her hand. Kirara mews as Kagome scratches her ear.
Kagome sighs and looks once again at the well when she feels a strange feeling...almost as if she was falling and twisting at the same time, then it was gone. *What was that?* Kagome looks around and sends a bit of her aura out to see if anyone was near. Not sensing anyone she shrugs and moves towards the well. Looking back at Kirara, "Bye, Kirara. I'll be back in three days, okay?" Kirara mews as if she understands. Kagome nods and jumps into the well. The familiar pink and blue light surrounds her and she disappears from the well. Kirara growls as another strange twisting happens and disappears. She then lifts up and heads towards Kaede's village.
As Kagome travels through the light she feels a slight vibration of some sort and then it was gone again. It was somewhat different from the feeling earilier, but yet the same. Kagome also notices that she was traveling in the light longer than normal. *What's going on? Is something wrong?* All of a sudden the light disappears and she was back in her time. *Hmm...maybe somethings off today.* Kagome shrugs as she shifts her backpack and starts to climb up the ladder. *Kami, I can't wait to take a bath*
At Nakatsu Castle
"...bring me more souls of the Reigami bloodline.."
A small dark figure shifts at the command, "Understood, Milord." The voice behind the screen chuckles. "If you can't find anymore, we'll call more...won't we?"
The small figure shudders as the voice chuckles once again.
"Soon everything will be ready..."
"Yes, Milord."
Modern America
"Mom, we're going to be late! The graduation's gonna start any moment now!"yells out a very attactive dark hair man.
"Shut up, Akira! Can't you see your father's trying to drive?"
"Yeah, 'trying' being the operative term,"states Akira as he rolls his eyes. "Hey, I'm not that bad just because I passed a stop sign or two... it doesn't mean I can't drive." Akira sighs as he looks at his father. "You don't know what the clutch is for dad. It must be the Asian in you."
"Shaddup." Akira's dad starts smirking.
Outside the car a big truck sped past and cuts in front of them causing them to slow down a bit.
"Honey, did I remember to bring the camera?" Looking through her bag as she asks. "How the hell should I know?"grumbles the old man. Looking up at her husband, she says, "Don't talk to me like that!"
Sighing,"Yes, dear." Akira chuckles in the back when loud squealing of tires are heard in front of them.
"Harold!"
Citadel College Station
The large crowd was clapping at all the graduates when they threw up the caps. Parents were taking pictures in the back while other graduates were congratualing others. One girl decorated with many honors was slipping past the walls.
*God, it's finally over, thought my name would never be called.* Sighing she looks out at the crowd. "I wonder where my folks are."
"Hey, Aki!" A tall blond voluptuous girl came towards her, waving and smiling. "It's finally over! Woot! Are you going to the party afterwards?" Aki chuckles and shakes her head "No, I don't think so. My folks are suppose to be here." Aki once again looks around at the crowd while rubbing her forehead. "Brad said he'd join us at the resturant. You wanna come? It's Italian."
"Nah, I rather celebrate with beer than pasta." she chuckles. Aki shakes her head. "You always were one for beer." Sticking her tongue out, she says "Can't stand the stuff. I'd rather have food than beer. Well, have fun." Aki hugs her. "See ya later, Viki" Viki, now walking away, yells back, "Likewise, Aki, likewise!" Viki quickly disappears into the crowd. Aki sighs again and rubs her head.
*Gah, this headache is killing me...better head back to the dorm and get some aspirin or something* Sighing Aki walks through what was left of the already dispering crowd when she spots someone familiar. A middle age officer walks towards her and nods his hat at her. "Miss Shepard." He looks around at the crowd. "May I speak to you in private?" Aki looks around. "Um..sure, let's head towards the dorms." Aki turns and walks towards the exit.
Looking back at the officer, "How's your daughter doing by the way?" The officer glances at her as he holds the door open for her. "Rachel? She's doing alright." As they walk down the sidewalk some leaves blow by.
"I'm guessing by the way you addressed me it has something to do with Brad again?" Aki steps over some trash that blows in her way. "No...not this time." Aki looks up at him, frowning. "Oh, then what's wrong?" The officer stops and tugs slightly on his collar as if it was too tight. Clearing his throat, he requests, "Can we sit down by that tree?"
Aki looks over at the forlorn bench under a twisted tree with leaves falling. "Yeah, sure." Looking up at him. "Is everything alright Mr. Maxwell? You're kinda freaking me out." Officer Maxwell walks over and sits down, sweeping off some leaves on the seat, and looks at her. "Aki..." he pats the seat next to him and waits as Aki settles herself down. Sighing he looks at her. "I don't know...how to tell you...how to put this exactly...I wouldn't of thought...I'd hoped..." Officer Maxwell rubs his neck as he looks down at his feet. "You see..." Aki growls and stands up "Just tell me already, dammit!"
Officer Maxwell sighs and looks up at her. "Your parents and brother were killed in a car accident on their way here." Aki pales and starts to shake. "Wh-h-at!NO!" Looking down at him she shakes her head as she wraps her arms around herself. "You're lying...NO! It can't be true!" Tears start to fall down her cheeks as she looks up at him. "They're suppose to be here" she whispers. Officer Maxwell wraps his arms around her. "I'm sorry Aki...I know this is hard..I'm so sorry." He hugs Aki as she starts to cry into his shoulder. He holds her until she finally stops. Aki looks up at him. "D-d-did they (sniff) die p-p-ainfu-l-ly?" He shakes his head as he pulls away from her. "No, they died on impact." He places a hand on her shoulder. "They'll be at Liara Hospital. Are you going to be alright?"
Aki sniffs and nods at him. "Again, I'm sorry." As he walks aways he turns and looks at her. "Congratuations on graduating."Aki sniffs again. "Yeah...thanks." He tips his
hat and leaves.
Please tell me what you think! Hopefully I did alright with the emotional stuff. I'm not really good with all that emo stuff lol.
