Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha and company.
Summary: He broke her heart on purpose. In return, she left. 5oo years later, he asks for another chance. Will he get it or will he die lonely with a broken heart and a broken soul?
Author's Note: There are lots of flash backs; just so you're not confused, but don't let that stop you from reading this story.
Chapter 1- Run Away
A broken heart girl ran. She ran away from loved ones. She ran away from her new life. She especially ran away from the one she loved most. Inuyasha. She had endless tears run down her usually rosy cheeks.
She had plenty of scratches and cuts from trees and thorn bushes tearing at her as she ran, but the pain was so little compared to the pain in her heart.
'He said he loved me! He said! He lied! All along, he lied to me! I was just a replacement after all,' The girl sadly thought.
FLASHBACK
A silver-haired man was twitching out of nervousness. He walked towards the love of his life. Kagome. Suddenly, all his nervousness vanished. He was happy. Truly happy. He went to the tree in the middle of his forest, Goshinboku where the person who holds his heart, life and soul. This is the tree where they first met.
"Kagome!" the silver-haired man called out.
Kagome turned around. Her beautiful raven tresses flowing down her back. It ended above her waist; she hadn't cut her hair in two years. Her skin was darker than before from staying out in the sun all day long and her shining brown eyes always held a spark no matter what.
Her long slim legs and curves are to die for. Tonight, she was wearing a brown skirt (just like the skirt of her school uniform) that ended midway of her thighs and a white tank top. On her feet where black runners.
She smiled when she saw her hanyou approach her. Oh, that smile. How he loved that smile; it was always reserved for him and only him. He smiled back.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome called out in her beautiful, angelic voice. She is seventeen years old now. Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku and Shippou have been hunting for the Jewel shards for about 2 years.
Inuyasha had long silver hair past his waist and ended right at his rear end. He had two silver twitching appendages on the top of his head. He had golden eyes that Kagome loved dearly and tanned skin kissed from the sun. And a baggy red kimono adorned his body.
He smiled those rare smiles that Kagome loved.
"Kagome…I…uhh have something to say to you," Inuyasha stuttered, his nervousness coming back at him full force.
Kagome's smile faded, worry etched on her features. Inuyasha always loved that part about Kagome. She would always put other's well-beings before her own.
"Inuyasha, is something wrong?" Kagome asked, concern clouding her eyes.
"NO! Nothing is wrong! I just…have to tell you something…" Inuyasha trailed off.
'Okay, Inuyasha! This is it! No backing down! Breathe! Breathe! Oh god, I think I'm going to pass out! BREATHE DAMNIT!' Inuyasha thought as panic began pumping in his bloodstream.
"Kagome…"
"Yeah?"
"I…I..."
"Inuyasha…"
"I LOVE YOU KAGOME!"
'There, I said it. Now I can pass out,' was Inuyasha's last thought before his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he crumpled to the ground.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled and rushed to where her love lay.
'He loves me! He loves me! Yet he fainted. Oh well! He loves me!' Kagome thought giddily.
Whether the two knew or not, there were three pairs of spying eyes. One of them held a camcorder and recorded the whole thing.
"I'm glad Kagome-sama taught me how to use this "cam-korker"," a male voice said happily.
"I think it's called "cam-kerdor," a female voice stated.
"I think it's called "camcorder"!" a kid voice piped in.
"Right! It's a camcorder! Thanks Shippou!" both male and female voices said simultaneously.
"No problem Miroku! No problem Sango!" Shippou piped.
END FLASHBACK
The raven-haired girl known as Kagome cried more, her heart wracking sobs echoing in the forest.
FLASHBACK
One week after Inuyasha professed his love to Kagome than fainted, Kagome told him of her feelings too.
"Inuyasha! I love you!" Kagome cried.
Inuyasha just grinned more and grabbed Kagome's head then crashed his lips against hers, their tongues fighting for dominance. Kagome's arms wrapped around Inuyasha's neck while one of Inuyasha's arms grasped her hip and pushed her closer to him. His other hand started wandering, squeezing her round bottom and breast. Kagome moaned in his mouth.
Inuyasha growled happy at the response Kagome gave him from his ministrations. He reluctantly pulled his mouth away from hers, Kagome whimpering at the loss of warmth. He smirked arrogantly. He leaned his forehead against Kagome's forehead.
"Kagome I love you and only you. I thought I loved Kikyo, but I didn't, I was so desperate for fitting in, I thought I loved her, but it was just friendship and nothing else. I get pissed and jealous when I see any guys around you. Kagome you are mine! Mine only! Mine!" Inuyasha declared possessively.
Kagome had tears in eyes. She pulled back and jumped on Inuyasha, embracing him.
"Oh, Inuyasha! You don't know how long I've waited for you to say those words! I love you so much! I am yours and yours only!" Kagome smiled, happy tears overflowing from her eyes.
Inuyasha raised his head from the crook of his Kagome's neck and started licking her tears away. He nuzzled her and growled soothingly. Kagome laughed.
"You remind me of a puppy!"
"OI! I'm better than a damn mutt!"
"I know! But you're my puppy," Kagome declared before she grabbed Inuyasha's forelocks and pulled his head to hers and they started kissing again.
After their make out session Inuyasha tried to ask Kagome his question.
"Kagome,"
"Yes Inuyasha,"
"Will...you...will...you...be- oh dear god!" Inuyasha cried then fainted in Kagome's arms.
Kagome sweat dropped and sighed.
"Wow, the big, bad, great Inuyasha has fainted when he attempted to ask me a question," Kagome said to no one particular.
Once again, there was three pair of eyes watching and recording the scene. They all giggled.
'Perfect Blackmail,' they all thought.
END FLASHBACK
The old well that brought Kagome to this place was in her line of vision. More tears sprouted and leaked down her face, blurring her vision. She tripped over a tree root she didn't see, but she got up quickly. She remembered the reason she running away in the first place.
FLASHBACK
Inuyasha finally asks Kagome to be his mate and she said yes. They had a human wedding, inviting Sesshomaru; Inuyasha begrudgingly invited him because Kagome would sit him if he doesn't. Sango, Miroku, Shippou and the whole village where there too and Kaede was the one to wed them.
After the wedding ended, Inuyasha grabbed Kagome and bounded to his forest.
"Kagome are you sure you want to do this?" Inuyasha asked, anticipation, love and lust pumping in his veins.
"Yes, Inuyasha. I am sure," Kagome said.
And so begins a day of many events and a night that will be remebered by both lovers.
Next Day…
The first one who woke up was a dazed, yet happy Kagome. She smiled a big smile and started giggling.
'I can't believe I made love with Inuyasha. He was gentle but rough,' Kagome happily sighed.She then noticed something or rather someone was missing. Kagome scanned her surroundings and she couldn't find him. Inuyasha. She got up and put on his haori.
"Where'd he go?" Kagome asked, a frown marring her once peaceful face.
Kagome started walking and calling out Inuyasha's name, yet no one answered or did she see him. She was about to head back to the village when she heard two voices. Kagome recognized one of the voices and she spotted two white eels.
'Kikyo? What is she doing here- No, Inuyasha wouldn't, he said he loves me and only me,' Kagome tried to reason herself on the absence of Inuyasha and the appearance of Kikyo.
Kagome ran quietly towards the voices and ducked behind a tree. She gasped, her eyes already filling with tears. There stood Inuyasha and Kikyo, locking lips.
Kagome started shaking and the tears were still held. She got up and faced the couple. Inuyasha pulled his lips away from a smirking Kikyo. He locked eyes with Kagome and smirked coldly.
"Inuyasha? Why are you-"
"Kissing Kikyo? Well I love her that's why," Inuyasha smirked coldly at Kagome.
"But… you said you love me and only me-"
"Who the hell would love a stupid klutz like you? Your weak and Kikyo's strong. I only used you because you were the closest thing to Kikyo till I can finally have the real her. Besides, I didn't even mark you as my mate," Inuyasha stated and hugged Kikyo tighter who smiled coldly at her reincarnation.
"Why have the copy when the real one is right there in front of you? See Kagome, you were always naïve, thinking I would love you. Keh, as if!" Inuyasha scoffed and kissed Kikyo again.
"I love you Kikyo."
"I love you too Inuyasha," Kikyo murmured and embraced Inuyasha tighter.
Kagome grasped the jar that held the jewel shards around her neck and pulled. The string snapped and she threw it at Inuyasha and Kikyo's feet. She couldn't handle it; she ran, never turning back. The dam that held her tears back broke.
END FLASHBACK
The well was just in front of Kagome. After Kagome left Inuyasha and Kikyo, she ran in Kaede's hut and grabbed all her things. Miroku, Sango, Shippou and Kaede found out what happened when Kagome told them what happened.
They tried to console her, but Kagome already took off. The others wasted no time in chasing her.
Kagome was standing on the ledge of the well, waiting for the other's to catch up. In no time, Miroku, Sango, Shippou and Kaede stood in front of her, begging her not to go.
"I'm sorry guys, but I have to leave," Kagome hiccupped, "The pain is just too unbearable. Tell Inuyasha and Kikyo that they have by blessings. Goodbye, I'll never forget you guys," was Kagome's last words before she jumped in the well.
Shippou screamed and jumped in the well, trying to follow Kagome, but it was too late. She was gone, forever. Shippou cried non-stop, bad-mouthing Inuyasha. Sango came in the well and picked up Shippou. They all had grim, solemn faces, tears streaming, never stopping.
Kagome's Time…
Kagome got out of the well and stood in front of it. She grabbed planks of wood and nails that were discarded in a corner of the well hut and she started nailing the well, covering it. Kagome dug in her bag and took out five scrolls. Kagome placed one on each side and the fifth scroll was placed in the middle of the boarded up well.
Kagome put her hands flat on the top of the well and started making a barrier so Inuyasha won't be able to go through it. The well and Kagome glowed a blue then it diminished. She grabbed her bag and ran out of the well, stumbling because her tears blurred her vision.
She busted in her home and ran upstairs to her room, ignoring the yells of her mother, brother and grandfather. She dropped her bag on her bedroom floor and locked her door, putting a chair against it just in case. She then went up to her window; locked it and closed the blinds. It was dark in her room and that was the way Kagome wanted it.
Kagome jumped on her bed and snuggled deeper in her love's haori. She cried some more, her sobs were heard throughout the Higurashi household and her heart-broken sobs wracked her small frame.
Feudal Japan…
They went back to Kaede's hut and saw a depressed Inuyasha waiting outside. Shippou jumped out of Sango's arms and he started punching and kicking Inuyasha. Inuyasha just stood there, tears streaming down his face. Shippou cried harder and ran inside.
Sango came up to him; she punched him in the stomach then slapped him on the face, she stomped inside. Miroku went up to Inuyasha and he too slapped Inuyasha. Kaede looked up at Inuyasha and glared at him. She followed Miroku and went inside.
Inuyasha went inside the hut, sporting two slap marks, bruises forming all over his body and small minor cuts were on his body, he didn't pay attention to them; he didn't care that everyone saw his tears. He didn't care anymore. His heart is gone. When the love of his life left, his heart went with her and his soul.
Without her, he is nothing and wherever she goes, his heart and soul will always belong to her.
"You…why? Why did you hurt her!?" Sango sobbed, holding the present Kagome gave her on the anniversary of their first meeting a necklace. On the necklace was a small, smooth, flat rock with her name carved on it.
"Inuyasha you are a bastard," Miroku swore, clutching a bracelet Kagome gave him for the anniversary of meeting each other. It had his name carved on it.
"I hate you!" Shippou yelled and he hugged a stuffed fox that held Kagome's scent. She gave it to him on the anniversary of their first meeting and just like Sango's and Miroku's present, his name was stitched on the side of the fox.
"I know. I hate myself too. I am a bastard," Inuyasha sobbed softly, clutching the only thing he has of Kagome; the golden locket she gave him before their meeting with Kaguya, the celestial maiden. He slid his claw in the crack and flicked it open. Inside were a picture of a mad Inuyasha and a mad Kagome on either side. He cried some more.
"Those are not the only things Kagome gave ye," Kaede spoke softly, tears sliding down her old, wrinkled face. Around her neck a necklace, Kagome used beads to make it. On the string that hung around Kaede's neck was one blue raindrop in the middle of five round beads.
It was for the anniversary of their first meeting. In her old hands were purple, red, orange, pink and brown velvet photo albums. Everybody remembered those albums. Kagome brought six albums.
One for her too keep and the other albums are for the others. Kagome's was a dark blue, Inuyasha's was red, Miroku's was purple, Sango's was pink, Shippou's was orange and Kaede's was the brown one.
Everyone signed in each album, putting a comment or two. In each album were pictures of the group. In it was embarrassing photos, serious photos, funny photos and other photos.
Each member took their assigned albums and looked in it. More tears sprouted from their eyes. Sango, Miroku, Kaede and Shippou cried themselves to sleep.
Inuyasha made sure they were asleep and left the hut. He ran towards the Goshinboku, the place he met Kagome, the place he confessed his love for Kagome and the place where he made love to Kagome.
He cried more, his eyes red, raw and puffy. He jumped in the highest branches of the Goshinboku; that can hold his weight. He sat down and faced the moon. The moon made Inuyasha's tears glistened in the night.
He had to let it out. He had to tell every living thing to cherish those you love and what he risked.
Inuyasha took in a breath and howled a painful, anguished, hurt howl. Everybody woke up from the sound and they too started crying, knowing full well what the howl's meaning is for. The one who was howling lost someone they loved and that they should cherish their love ones and never take them for granted.
Western Lands…
Even Sesshomaru heard it and he is in the Western Lands while Inuyasha was in the Eastern lands. He heard Inuyasha's painful howl and it woke up the young girl in his arms.
"Sesshomaru-sama is that Inuyasha-chan?" Rin asked.
"Yes it is Rin."
"He sounds very sad," Rin whimpered and she too felt the effect of the howl and she started crying.
Back with Inuyasha…
Inuyasha heard and smelt the effect his howl on the people. He smiled an emotionless smile. Nothing. He is nothing without his love. Nothing. Inuyasha Looked up at the stars and smiled a sad smile.
'One day Kagome. We will meet again and start a new life with each other. One day. I promise you. No matter what, I will come for you, just wait. Wait for me,' Inuyasha vowed.
"Mommy!" a girl hollered.
"Mama!" a boy yelled.
"Yes Kasha? Yes Yasha?" a feminine, motherly voice answered.
"Mommy, are we going to Granny' house?" Kasha asked.
"We are going to Granny's house but just for a few hours sweetie," the motherly voice said.
"Really?"
"Yay!"
The owner of the voice smiled a small smile. The mother of the two kids is Kagome Higurashi. She had waist length raven hair, a smile that can light up a dark room, her skin colour is still tanned and her brown eyes never lost the spark after she left Feudal Japan.
The spark dimmed, but did not diminished. Her appearance never changed, but her spirit did, she lost half her spirit when she ran away from Inuyasha.
Yasha was one of her children. He was two minutes younger than his older sister Kasha. He is six years old.
Kasha was her other child and she was six years old, two minutes older than her twin brother Yasha. She is a smart girl. She noticed the sad smile her mommy has on her face. Whenever they would go to her Granny's house, her mommy would always smile a sad smile.
She knew who her daddy was, but she never met him. She also knew her mommy and her daddy came from different time periods. Kasha vowed when she met her father, she will tell him how much she hates him.
FLASHBACK
Three years. Three years past since she gave birth to a baby girl hanyou and a baby boy hanyou. Her children. Their children. Kagome was visiting her Mother and her younger brother, Souta at the "Higurashi Shrine" or "Sunset Shrine". Her grandfather died from old age one year ago.
Kagome Higurashi brought her three-year-old hanyou children to visit her family. They were currently playing with their Uncle Souta. Well, that's what Kagome and her mother thinks. Kagome and her mother were in the kitchen.
"Kagome, you still haven't told me what happened three years ago," Kagome's mother asked, concern, worry and curiosity clouded her features.
Kagome started sobbing quietly, her whole body shaking. Mrs. Higurashi came up to her daughter and started hugging and consoling her.
"Mom…he said…he loves me! Only me…" Kagome sobbed, welcoming the comforting embrace of a mother's hug.
"Shhh, Kagome sweetheart, Shhh. Calm down," Mrs. Higurashi soothed.
Kagome slowly calmed down and sat in one of the kitchen chairs and Mrs. Higurashi just stayed standing. Kagome started her story from the place when Inuyasha confessed her love to her to the day that she found out Inuyasha still loved Kikyo and how she was just replacement. She never missed a part, she told her mother everything. She started crying in the middle of her story.
Mrs. Higurashi listened intently, a frown forming on her lips. She knew full well that her daughter deeply loved Inuyasha. She loved Inuyasha too, as if he was her own son. She also knew that Kagome's child was Inuyasha's child too.
After a pregnant pause, Mrs. Higurashi spoke softly.
"Kagome, Inuyasha wouldn't purposely hurt you. He's not that kind of guy…but…" Kagome zoned out, reminiscing in the past. More tears gathered in her eyes and spilled out.
Whether the two Higurashi's knew or not, a small figure stood behind the door that led to the kitchen. Her dog-ears twitched to the sounds of her mommy crying because of what her daddy did to her. Her golden eyes flashed a dangerous red.
She growled low and threateningly for a three-year-old. She heard everything. She was about to get a glass of water but stopped when her mommy and Granny started talking about what happened three years ago and her twin brother was sleeping in her mommy' old room.
From then on, she hated her father. She hated him for hurting her mommy and when she meets him, he was as good as dead. She got up from her hiding spot and went to go bug her Uncle Souta and on the way there, the conversation between her mommy and Granny echoed in her small mind. She growled. Her name is Kasha Higurashi. The child of Kagome and Inuyasha.
END FLASHBACK
Kasha is now six years old, she never told her mommy or her twin brother Yasha what she heard three years ago.
"Kids! Get ready, we're going to go to Granny's house in a few minutes!" Kagome called out to her children. She was standing in front of their room upstairs, smiling softly and happily at them as they scurried to get ready.
Kagome raised both her children by herself. Occasionally she would get help from her Mother and her brother Souta, but that didn't happen often because Kagome wanted to raise them by herself because it was her job and she also claimed she enjoyed it.
She smiled. Yasha always loved to hear her adventures in Feudal Japan.
She told them when they found her album filled with her life in the Feudal Era. The smile then turned into a frown and she scrunched up her eyebrows.
She always wondered though whenever she would tell them about their father, Inuyasha, Kasha would always growl and her eyes would flash red. Sometimes she would even let her demon blood take over.
Kasha and Yasha's demon blood isn't life threatening like when Inuyasha's demon blood takes over because with Kagome's miko powers it balances it. Kasha and Yasha can control what they do and they remember what happens during their transformation.
They would transform when she's in danger. She giggled; those two are very possessive about her well being, just like their Father Inuyasha.
"Mommy?" Kasha and Yasha asked, waving their hands in front of their Mother's face. She snapped out of their daze and grinned down at them.
"You kids ready?"
"Yep!"
"Yeah!"
"Let's go shall we?"
The trio grabbed each other's hands, Kagome in the middle and each child on either side of her.
She got an idea. She slipped her hands out of her children's hands and they look curiously up at her. She smiled playfully down at them.
She ran down the stairs; her children still in place, not moving and wondering what their mommy is up to.
She yelled over her shoulder, "Race you guys outside! Winner gets ice cream! Oh, and be careful!" she laughed freely.
Both kids faced each other and smiled a toothy grin. They both ran full speed outside, already tasting the ice cream.
They were outside their townhouse, breathing in the air and gazing at the blue sky. They said "hi" to their neighbor who was going for a walk. Kagome stayed on the steps that lead down to the ground, she fished her keys in her pocket and locked the door, facing her bickering children; it reminded her when she and Inuyasha would always yell at each other for the most stupidest things.
"I won!" cried a raven-haired child, shaking her fist in front of her twin
"No! I won!" retorted a silver-haired child flailing his arms to prove his point.
"Both you guys won. Man, both of you are very fast and I had a head start. I envy you," laughed Kagome.
"Feh!"
"Keh!"
'So like Inuyasha,' Kagome laughed at her thought.
"Okay, listen up soldiers!" Kagome said in an imitation of an army general.
Both children looked up and stood tall, their arms stiffly on their sides and their legs ramrod still, knowing that an operation was in order or that they were going to get raid a certain ice cream parlor. They grinned, a fang poking out their mouths.
Both of them yelled, "Sir, yes, Sir!"
"We will plan an attack on "Koshimato's Ice Cream Parlor" and we would get there using our special jeep. There, we will steal all their weapons. We will rendezvous at Sunset Shrine! Clear!"
"Sir, yes, Sir!" The trio saluted to each other and ran towards their special jeep.
The only thing special about the jeep was that Kagome took off the roof (an: or whatever you call it, I suck at the description of cars) of the jeep so the wind would blow freely, tangling its wind fingers in their hair. Kagome jumped in the driver seat and buckled herself in. She turned around and saw her children buckle themselves in.
She pushed the car key in the ignition and revved it. She grinned.
"Operation: Attack Koshimato's Parlor in place!" Kagome yelled happily and put the gearshift in drive. She pushed her foot against the gas pedal and drove off.
Everybody heard the laughter of the Higurashi family and smiled. That family trio was always a happy family.
At Koshimato's Ice Cream Parlor…
The customers and employees of the Koshimato's Ice Cream Parlor heard laughter and running footsteps.
A bell jingling and a door slamming open alerted everybody in the confines of the parlor knew someone entered; a certain family.
"Kagome! Kasha! Yasha!" a female yelled from behind the counter. She ran around it and jumped on Kagome.
"Attack!" Kasha and Yasha yelled. They both ran behind the counter the grabbed the ice cream they wanted.
"Ah! Kagome! Sango! Help! The little People has come and invaded the place! AHH!" screamed a playful yet terrified male voice.
"Oh stop over exaggerating it Miroku," the female voice said and rolled her eyes. She let go of Kagome and dragged her behind the counter.
Everybody knew this happened daily and wasn't surprised at the intrusion; they all went back to happily talking and eating their desserts.
Kagome smiled and started chatting with her best friend, from the Feudal Era and now in the present, Sango.
Flashback
Kagome found Miroku and Sango walking aimlessly in the streets of Tokyo, near her townhouse with two kids of their own one-month ago with Kirara in tow. They were wearing the kimono's she always saw them wear last time she saw them.
Sango's kimono was a pink top and the skirt was an emerald green with old, worn down sandals on her feet. Miroku wore his purple and black robes, with a staff in his right hand, the cloth that use to adorn his right hand where the wind tunnel use to be was gone.
Their two children were made up of a girl and a boy. The girl had Sango's brown hair and Miroku's blue eyes. Her body was adorned in a pink and red kimono. The boy was a miniature Miroku, except his eyes were from Sango's. His body was adorned in a blue and black kimono.
Kagome was shocked that they lived for hundred of years (in the Feudal Era Years, not the future years) but she was happy that she can see her friends again. Kagome ran up to them with her kids in tow, she called out their names.
"Sango! Miroku!" Kagome cried, tears filling her vision.
The said people turned around and gasped. They ran towards her and enveloped each other in hugs. The kids looked on with curiosity swirling in their depths. That was until a slap sounded.
"Oww! Kagome, why must you hit so hard? It was a greeting and I haven't felt your bottom for so long!" Miroku claimed, rubbing his sore cheek.
"I see you haven't changed Miroku," Kagome dryly said and narrowed her eyes at Miroku, daring him to touch her again.
"Kagome…Oh my god! I thought I wouldn't see you again!" Sango cried andhugged Kagome again then pushed back to look in Kagome's smiling eyes and face. Kagome picked up Kirara and hugged her as well, Kirara mewed softly at Kagome and nuzzled in her arms.
"Same here! Not that I'm complaining, but, how did you guys live for so long?" Kagome asked, tears still streaming down her face. She heard two growls and four hands pulled her away from her friends. She looked down at the angry glares being sent to Sango and Miroku who looked on with amusement. She quieted them down.
"This must be yours and Inuyasha's children eh?" Miroku laughed.
"They have to be because they have the possessiveness Inuyasha had when he was around Kagome," Sango laughed.
"Yep, Yasha, Kasha, these are my best friends Sango and Miroku," Kagome softly said and bent down to their level and pointed at them.
"The one in the pictures?" Kasha asked.
"The one that gets jealous when the perverted man touched another girl?" Yasha innocently said and looked at Miroku then Sango.
Sango and Miroku blushed and muttered under their breath.
"Yep," Kagome giggled.
"Anyways, to answer your question Kagome, Sesshomaru and Rin became Mates when Rin was old enough. Rin and us became close and she knew that we were going to die earlier than her because we're humans," Miroku paused and Sango continued.
"Rin and Sesshomaru found a sorceress that can expand the human life to that of a hanyou's. The sorceress gave us a potion that we will age slow like a hanyou and that our children and their childre and so on will have their lives expanded to that of a hanyou's and that we will also age low too. We then lost contact with Rin and Sesshomaru when we moved." Sango finished.
Kagome didn't ask what happened to Inuyasha and Kikyo when she heard the word "hanyou" so she just squealed and jumped on them, crushing them in her hugs. She let them go and looked down at the nervous human kids.
She bent down to their level and motioned Kasha and Yasha over. They complied and got the drift. They introduced themselves and Miroku's and Sango's kids became comfortable around them. The boy's name is Kino and the girl's name is Hanah. Kino was ten years old in human years and Hanah was seven years old in human years.
Miroku and his family where much more older then they looked.
Everybody headed to the Higurashi's home. Kagome let them stay over at her house till they can get a start on their new life in the future.
END FLASHBACK
"Hey Miroku!" Kagome waved.
"Kagome, hello!" Miroku smiled.
"Hey Miroku, so how much this time?" Kagome asked while she took out some cash to pay for the ice cream.
"Oh! It's on the house Kagome!" Sango cried while she helped her godchildren get their desired ice cream.
Sango and Miroku was Kasha's and Yasha's godparents if anything were to happen to Kagome and she is the godparent of Kino and Hanah if something were to happen to their parents.
"You guys sure?" Kagome asked, her hand already putting the cash back in her wallet slowly, just incase they changed their minds.
"Yes," Miroku waved off the money and stared at his wife and his godchildren.
"You kids got your ice cream?" Miroku kindly asked.
"Yeah!" Kasha exclaimed and licked her strawberry ice cream.
"Yep! Yep!" Yasha exclaimed and he followed his sister and licked his vanilla ice cream.
"Where's Kino and Hanah?" Kasha asked her Auntie Sango.
"They are at a friend's house sweetie," Sango replied.
"Oh," was Kasha's response.
Kasha and Yasha were in Kindergarten, but it was the long weekend. They have lots of friends but they were vacationing for the long weekend.
Kagome never liked her children's friends parents because they would throw hateful things towards her because she have two hanyou children and they would insult her children when they aren't looking and when they are out of hearing range because of their heritage.
"Well, Operation: Attack Koshimato's Parlor is done! Good job soldiers!" Kagome declared to her "soldiers" in that imitation voice of a male general.
"Thank you sir!" said Kasha and Yasha, but they busied themselves with their ice cream.
Kagome dropped her general façade and sighed, the game was over.
"Kagome you so don't act your age," Sango snorted and Miroku laughed.
"So? I'm twenty-three years old! I'm still young!" Kagome retorted back, grinning.
"Hey, Miroku?" Kagome smiled.
"Yeah?" Miroku narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
"Get me a rocky road ice cream on a sugar cone please and thank you," Kagome looked down and examined her nails, the grin still plastered on her face.
Miroku twitched and went to get the said ice cream mumbling about "bossy friends taking advantage over their friends".
Kagome and Sango giggled at his antics.
"Where you off to?" Sango asked.
"My Mom's place. We're visiting her. We visit her two times a week," Kagome said.
"Y'know, I still haven't met your mom."
"Shoot, I forgot about that. Wanna come with us to visit her?"
"Can't after Miroku and I are done our shift here, we're going on a date because there are no kids to stop us," Sango mumbled, red tinting her cheeks, but it was loud enough for Kagome to hear.
"Ohh! I bet once you guys get home after your date you'll find out your pregnant again! Then you'll give Miroku a hard time with the mood swings and cravings. Then he'll never want to get you pregnant again!" Kagome joked, she knew Sango liked kids and she would always tease her.
"What!? Why you-" Sango didn't finish her sentence when Miroku appeared beside her with the desired ice cream in his right hand. Kagome knew she was going to get pummeled by Sango at the comment so she grabbed her ice cream and her kids and ran towards the door.
"Hey! You have to pay for that!" Miroku shouted.
"You said it's on the house!" Kagome cackled and she and her children exited the parlor and drove off.
Miroku sighed and bowed his head but he raised it when his shirt was fisted in someone's hand. He gulped.
"Miroku, you do want more kids right?" Sango said in a low, dangerous tone.
All the employees and customers laughed at his expense.
Miroku gulped again and started quivering when his wife was giving him that glare.
"Uhh...umm…-" Miroku stuttered.
"RIGHT?!" Sango screamed in his face.
'Kagome…what did you say to her?!' Was Miroku's last thought before his wife pummeled him.
At the Higurashi Shrine…
Kagome parked her jeep in front of the shrine steps. She took the key out of the ignition and unbuckled herself. She turned around and saw her children having problems unbuckling themselves; she reached over and helped them till the seat belt was back in its original place.
"Kids, remember the rules," Kagome stated.
Kasha and Yasha nodded and Yasha piped up.
"One: Behave. Two: Show your Manners. Three: Be cute so we can get things from Granny and Uncle Souta and Four: Bug and annoy Uncle Souta," He grinned and Kasha giggled.
Kagome smiled proudly and gave him a thumbs up.
The family exited the jeep and climbed up the shrine steps. Well, Kasha and Yasha jumped steps, being a hanyou and all while Kagome tried to catch up to them, stumbling all the way.
Kagome was panting when she was at the top of the staircase, trying to slow down her breathing while she playfully glared at her children when they stuck their tongues out at her. She stuck out her tongue and grabbed them at the back of their shirts and hefted them on her back giving them a piggyback ride to the home.
Mrs. Higurashi and Souta heard the laughs and squeals outside and smiled knowingly. They rushed outside to meet their family and grinned when they spotted them.
"Kagome!" Mrs. Higurashi called out a smile on her lips.
"Hey sis!" Souta waved.
Kagome started sprinting towards her mom and her brother and skidded to a halt in front of them. The laughs and squeals quieted down. The two hanyou's on Kagome's back started squirming, a sign that they wanted to get down.
Kagome went on her knees and the two hanyou's jumped off her back and on their Uncle Souta.
The Higurashi family went inside, not noticing a pair of eyes watching them when Kagome, Kasha and Yasha met up with their Mom, Granny, Uncle and brother.
Later That Night…
"Mom, we're just going to the forest behind the shrine, the kids need to breathe in fresh and clean and foresty smell then we'll head home," Kagome told her mother while she put on her shoes and waited for her two hanyou children to do the same.
'Is "foresty" a word? Meh, now it is,' Kagome questioned herself then shrugged.
"Okay dear! Bye!" Mrs. Higurashi called out from her spot in the living room, watching a soap opera.
"You guys ready?" Kagome asked, wrapping a red haori around her small frame. She breathed in the smell that still lingers on the haori.
'Inuyasha…I still love him, but I hate him…this is so confusing…'"We're ready mommy!" Kasha yelled out, zipping up her blue jacket.
"Can we go now?" pleaded Yasha.
"Yep, lets go kiddo's," Kagome grasped Kasha's left hand while her left hand grasped Yasha's right hand; they walked out the door and headed to the back of the shrine where a forest sat still, the trees swaying from playing with the cool wind that rushes by peacefully. Kagome smiled, she always loved the forests.
"We can't smell the polluten Yasha!" Kasha exclaimed and she raised her arms in the air and stretched.
"It's pollution sweetie," Kagome corrected.
"Feh, whatever," Kasha said and walked to a tree and sat down. Yasha followed his sister and sat beside her.
Kagome smiled and tilted her head up, looking at the stars and the moon. She walked over to her children and motioned them to stand up.
They stood up and watched their mother occupy the place they were just sitting in moments ago. Once Kagome got comfortable she motioned them to sit in her lap. They rushed and sat in her lap, squirming trying to find a comfortable place.
Once they were comfortable, Kagome leaned against the tree behind her while her kids leaned against her.
"Mommy? Tell us what Daddy was like," Yasha asked.
A growl escaped Kasha's mouth.
"Don't."
"Kasha, how come you get mad when I talk about your daddy?" Kagome asks.
"…He hurt you…" Kasha whispered.
"Sweetie," Kagome paused and rubbed Kasha's and Yasha's dog-ears atop their head.
"Your daddy has hurt me plenty of times before I had you guys, but I would always forgive him because I love him," Kagome confessed.
"Still, I don't like him," Kasha scoffed and pulled out of her mommy's grasp and she walked across from her mommy, glaring angrily her.
"Why do you still love him?! He hurt you so many times! How can you forgive him! How!? Why!?" Kasha yelled at her mommy, her eyes flashing red.
Kagome stared at her daughter and her eyes moistened. The hand on Yasha's head became limp and fell to her side. Yasha got mad at his sister and started defending his mommy.
"That's mommy! She always forgives people! No matter how much they hurt her! Mommy loves our daddy because she does! She can't help it! Stop yelling at her!" Yasha shouted, flexing his claws.
"Oh yeah! It's her fault she fell in love with our so-called "daddy"! She could've fallen in love with someone else! " Kasha screamed and brought down her claws on her twin brother.
Yasha dodge to the right and tried to punch Kasha in her stomach but she jumped in the air and pushed her brother on the ground. Both the hanyou's eyes were flashing red. Kasha was about to slash at her younger brother who tried to get up but failed.
Kasha brought her claws down. Yasha clenched his eyes shut, waiting for the pain to come but it didn't. He opened his eyes and sniffed. His eyes widened and he knew why his sister didn't attack him. Mommy was crying.
"Please stop, just stop!" Kagome cried, her hands covering her tear-streaked face.
Kasha's ears drooped and she got off of her brother. She started crying because she made her mommy cry. Yasha got up and ran to his mommy and hugged her. Kagome hugged him and got up, carrying Yasha on her hip while she walked to the crying hanyou.
Kagome went on her knees and hugged Kasha, while whispering soothing words in her ears. Yasha wrapped his arms around his sister and she did the same, both of them enveloped in a mother's comforting embrace.
The two hanyou's fell asleep in Kagome's arms and she smiled down at them, tears falling on their sleeping faces. Kagome got up, carrying her children in her arms and put them down on the tree they were just sitting in. She took off the haori around her shoulders and wrapped her children in it.
Kagome kissed their foreheads and she was about to lie down beside them when she heard a rustle in the bushes and saw two pair of eyes stare back at her.
She opened her mouth to scream but it was a mistake. She was pushed against another tree firmly but softly and lips covered her own. She struggled against her captive's hold but it was futile. Her arms were pinned above her head; one hand covered both her wrists and two legs pinned her own legs.
She opened her mouth to scream but she froze when she felt a tongue shyly enter her mouth.
He smelled a scent he hadn't smelled in over 5oo years. The smell teased and wrapped around his senses. He rushed out of his spot on a tree and ran near the opening where the forest ended and the shrine grounds took over.
He gasped and his eyes widened. He hid behind a tree and peeked around it, his eyes locking on a figure carrying two hanyou children on her back.
'Kagome. Even after all those years, she kept my haori. She still is the most beautiful person to ever grace this world. Is she married with someone?' The owner of the thoughts growled and his eyes flashed red.
'Hell no, Kagome belongs to me and only me. She is mine! MINE!' the owner of the voice growled possessively.
'Soon my love. Soon we will meet again,' the owner of the voice vowed and slithered back in the forest, letting it consume him.
He was walking aimlessly in his forest, his thoughts on a raven-haired girl.
'No, a woman. She's become a woman, she is no longer a girl.'
His ears twitched at every sound made in the forest, but he paid no attention to them; his mind was occupied with the raven-haired woman and the two hanyou's on her back. Her children. Is it is? He sighed, whether it is his or not, he will still love them.
He was about to go to sleep when a scent invaded his nose. He jumped off his perch high on a tree and he sped towards the place the scent was omitting from.
He finally sees her, his woman. She was gazing at the stars intently while her children sat on the roots of a tree. She made them stand up then she sits down and the hanyou's sit in her lap. The boy asks his mommy to tell him about his daddy. He smiled, a fang poking out of his lip.
One of his eyebrows cocked upwards when the girl growled when she heard her brother's question.
'Does she hate me or what?'
He heard his angel speak, her voice clouding his senses.
"Kasha, how come you get mad when I talk about your daddy?" Kagome asks.
'So, the girl's name is Kasha eh?'"…He hurt you…" Kasha whispered.
"Sweetie," Kagome paused and rubbed Kasha's and Yasha's dog-ears atop their head.
"Your daddy has hurt me plenty of times before I had you guys, but I would always forgive him because I love him," Kagome confessed.
His ears lowered when his love said that, even though she said she still loves him. It was true, he hurt her plenty of times and she still forgave him. He smiled. That's Kagome for you.
His ears rose when he heard "Kasha" speak and get out of her mother's grasp, glaring angrily at her.
"Still, I don't like him," Kasha scoffed.
"Why do you still love him?! He hurt you so many times! How can you forgive him! How!? Why!?" Kasha yelled at her mommy, her eyes flashing red.
He growled, he wanted to come out of the shadows and reveal himself, but if he did that, Kasha might figure out whom he is and would gladly let her demon side take over and attack him, he wouldn't dare hurt her.
He stayed in the shadows, watching the scene play out before him. He smelt Kagome's tears and he whimpered quietly.
He saw the boy get up; he still didn't know what his name was.
"That's mommy! She always forgives people! No matter how much they hurt her! Mommy loves our daddy because she does! She can't help it! Stop yelling at her!" Yasha shouted, flexing his claws.
'That is so a Kagome trait.'
"Oh yeah! It's her fault she fell in love with our so-called "daddy"! She could've fallen in love with someone else!" Kasha screamed and brought down her claws on her twin brother.
His eyes widened, that reminded him a lot of his brother and himself when they would cross paths. They would start fighting each other; usually he's the one who started it because of his anger.
Kasha was angry and attacked her brother whom out of instinct attacked back.
They both tried to claw at each other but they would dodge. Kasha jumped on her brother and pushed him on the ground. She brought her claws down and was about to spill blood when she smelt and heard her mommy cry.
"Please stop, just stop!" Kagome cried, her hands covering her tear-streaked face.
'Damn, I can't do anything but watch!'He saw Kasha get off her brother and plop on the ground, crying. The brother ran to his mommy and hugged her. He saw Kagome pick up the boy and walk towards the crying Kasha. She knelt down and hugged both of them, surrounding them with her arms and body.
The twins fell asleep in their mommy's arms and she took off the haori and wraps it around the sleeping hanyou's. She carries them to the tree they all use to sit in before the siblings started fighting and she kissed their foreheads.
He made a sound in the bushes on purpose, alerting his woman his presence.
She looked up, alerted of the sound and was about to scream when she saw two pair of eyes stare right back at her.
'My time to shine.'
He jumped out of the bushes so quickly and quietly, his woman didn't have enough time to scream when he pinned her to a tree and covered her mouth with his.
Her lips are still soft like he remembered. She opened her mouth to scream and that was when he shyly entered his tongue in her sweet tasting mouth.
'Oh my GOD! Who is kissing me! Who the hell is kissing me!' Kagome panicked then she became angry when she found out that the lips and the aura belonged to Inuyasha.
Kagome pinched the hand that bound her wrists together and he leaned back to snap at her but she whispered, "Sit."
The man widened his eyes at her before he fell flat on the ground. Kagome jumped over him and grabbed a stick. She walked to him and jumped harshly on his back, she grinned when she heard a hiss of pain.
She started thwacking the stick at the man's head, hearing his yells of pain. She grinded the heel of her shoe in the middle of his back. The man had had enough and he got up, Kagome tumbling backwards from the sudden movement; the stick flying from her grasp.
The man swiftly caught the woman is his arms before she hit the ground.
"Kagome, my god. I've missed you so much!" the man cried and hugged her frame tightly, never wanting to let her go.
"Inuyasha, you bastard, let me go now!" Kagome yelled quietly, not wanting to wake her children up as she struggled against his embrace, even though she still loves him, Kagome wants him to feel the pain she felt six years ago.
"Never," Inuyasha whispered.
"Let our mommy go," a pissed voice commanded behind the couple.
Inuyasha's ear twitched and he craned his head to the owner of the voice.
There stood one hanyou turned demon and one hanyou had a transformed Tetsusaiga pointed at Inuyasha's neck.
The hanyou turned demon was Kasha. Hey eyes became red completely and her pupils were an ice cold blue, one jagged purple stripe adorned each of her cheeks. Her fangs and claws elongated a growl escaping her mouth.
She had on a pink bomber jacket with baggy blue jeans around her small waist. Under her jacket was a black t-shirt with a blue, yellow, red and pink butterfly on her chest. Small runners covered her clawed feet. Her hair was silver, the same as her daddy's and the tips of her hair, bangs and dog-ears were raven.
Yasha sneakily grabbed the sword on Inuyasha's waist when he was kissing his mommy. He was awed when it transformed into a big fang when he grasped it.
He wore a red bomber jacket with black, baggy knee length shorts and blue runners on his clawed feet. Under his jacket was a dark blue t-shirt. His hair was raven coloured with silver streaks here and there. His pupils were brown and gold rimmed the brown and his dog-ears were just raven coloured.
He pointed the fully transformed fang at Inuyasha's neck.
"Are they mine?" Inuyasha whispered to Kagome.
"Yeah," Kagome whispered back, shock was etched one feature when Yasha pointed the fully transformed Tetsusaiga at the owner.
Kagome squirmed in his grasped and told him to let her go so she can calm them down. Inuyasha let his arms fall loosely around her waist and Kagome got up and dusted her jeans.
Kagome wore jean Capri's, with a baby blue t-shirt that had the word "Angel" on the front of her chest with black and silver runners on her human feet. She put her hands on her hips and said in a demanding, yet soft tone.
"Kasha calm down sweetie. I'm fine. He is no threat, he can't even hurt me if he tried to," Kagome stated and pointed a thumb in Inuyasha's direction and he snorted.
"Yasha, you too. Calm down and put the sword down, your daddy will teach you how to use it when your older," Kagome told him.
Kasha did calmed down, and let her demon blood recede. Gold eyes rimmed with brown glared hatefully at Inuyasha. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and she snorted. Keeping an eye on her daddy when her mommy said to Yasha "Your daddy will teach you how to use it…".
Yasha put the sword down and looked at Inuyasha happily and said in a small voice, "Daddy?"
Inuyasha got up on the ground and stood beside Kagome. He bent down to his level and opened his arms wide.
"Yes runt. The one and only," Inuyasha smirked and hugged Yasha when he ran in his arms and hugged him, tears falling down his face.
Inuyasha soothed Yasha, his son, whom fell asleep and smiled down at him, grabbing the sword from the ground and putting it back in its sheath.
Inuyasha looked up at Kasha and she growled at him before she ran into her mommy's arms and stuck her tongue at him. Inuyasha's eye twitched and looked up at Kagome for help. He got annoyed when she just laughed at him. He got up, his son in his arms and Kasha in Kagome's arms.
"Kasha, why don't you say hi to your daddy," Kagome looked down at her daughter.
Kasha was quiet till she swore Inuyasha off, "Piss off bastard!" She then hid her head on the crook of her mommy's neck and snuggled deeper, falling asleep instantly. Kagome then remembered the hate she felt for Inuyasha.
Inuyasha got more annoyed, "Did…did she just...tell me to "piss off"?"
Kagome looked at him oddly then replied coldly, "Well, that's what she said. Something wrong with your hearing or what?" She then grabbed Yasha's form from Inuyasha's arms and she started walking.
Inuyasha stood still and gaped at her retreating form. He snapped out of his stupor and ran towards Kagome. Once he reached her side he yelled quietly, "What the hell Kagome? Our daughter just told me to piss off! She's too young to swear like that!"
"Your daughter? She's not your daughter! She's my daughter Inuyasha! I raised my dausghter without your help! You left me for a dead person! Wait, I forgot to say- this dead person is way better than me in everything I do!" Kagome yelled back, fighting the tears that are forming.
"Kagome! She is my daughter! Both of them are mine! What the hell is your problem!?" Inuyasha snapped.
Kagome, Inuyasha and their sleeping children made it to the jeep. Kagome buckled her children in and was about to go to the driver's seat but was stopped when a wrist pulled her back.
"Answer me," Inuyasha demanded.
Kagome was quiet, her eyes glaring hard at Inuyasha. The spark and the half of her spirit she lost years ago came back full force.
"My problem? You want t know what my problem is Inuyasha? Well, I'll let you know that my problem is you! You caused me pain! You caused me heartache! You played me for a fool all along! You never loved me! I was only a replacement! A replacement Inuyasha! A REPLACEMENT!!" Kagome huffed at the end of her ranting.
"Kagome, I'm sorry. I didn't mean-" Inuyasha apologized but he was interrupted by the cursed word, "Sit!" echoing in the quiet neighborhood. He was forcefully pushed to the ground and Kagome took this chance to run to the driver seat and start the jeep.
Her anxiousness made her miss the spot where her car key is supposed to in the ignition so she yelled sit again when Inuyasha got up. He was slammed back to the ground, trying to fight off the spell.
But by the time the spell wore off, Kagome was already driving away and she said sit four more times so Inuyasha wouldn't catch up to her and find out where she lives.
Inuyasha swore his back was paralyzed by how many sits Kagome said. After the spell wore off, he couldn't find where Kagome went to and his ears drooped in shame and sadness. Inuyasha just sat on the sidewalk looking like a kicked puppy.
He sniffled, trying his hardest not to let his tears show, but some rolled down his cheeks and landed on the sidewalk. Inuyasha looked at the sky, his tears rolling down his face faster this time. He got up and bounded up the steps, intent on finding out where Kagome lives and how to get back with her or get a second chance with her.
