---Simplicity of A Complicated Love---
--Chapter 1: Stalker--

It was an ordinary day in Fuedal Japan, and a teenage miko(priestess) was outside by the river, hanging her robes to dry. Her name was Kagome. Her teacher and grandmother, Kaede, insisted the girl wear her hair back, to help keep it out of her face. But Kagome didn't want to, and always left it down to blow around freely in the wind. She smiled after finishing hanging clothes up and headed back to the hut.
Kagome patted on her priestess outfit and waved to a girl in a pink and green kimono, who was a bit surprised to see her.
"Kagome, I thought you were washing your robes!" the girl called out as Kagome approached.
Kagome smiled, "I'm already done Sango! It's hanging out to dry near the shrine. Kaede told me I could have the day off, so I'm quite happy."
"That makes one of us. As a miko in training Kagome, its only natural you'd be good at doing what you do, and happy for a break. Sadly, I, having to do Miroku's washing, NEVER get a break. Its just not fair sometimes."
Kagome smiled brightly as the wind made their hair softly billow. Kagome pulled some of her hair behind her ear and looked past Sango, to see a monk leaning against a hut sharpening his staff. He looked up and waved at Kagome. He then ressumed sharpening his staff and spoke without looking up, "Hello Lady Kagome"
He then stood up and walked over to the two girls. Sango's face soon went red and she slapped the houshi across the face. Kagome laughed and the monk who was now on the ground.
Kagome looked back at Sango, "I'll probably go for a little walk soon. So don't worry if you don't see me for awhile ."
"Alright Kagome. Have fun"

A pair of eyes watched from behind the bushes as the priestess-to-be walked away from her demon exterminator friend. The owner of these eyes was surprised that neither had sensed him there. He smiled and suddenly glared at a smaller friend who sat bored next to him.
"Inuyasha, why do you always spy on this girl? You don't know her, and she has nothing you want! So why can't we just leave her alone?" The young fox-like boy wriggled next to the half dog demon. The half demon gave a good bonk to the kitsune(fox) and began off after Kagome.
"I have my reasons, so pipe down!" Inuyasha stopped and decided that this kit was getting quite annoying. He figured if he let that slayer and monk find him, he'd warm up to them eventually. Not like the kid knew anything that he could tell, "Shippo, have fun!"
Shippo blinked and was tossed towards Sango. She caught him as he flew out of the bushes and it was now her turn to blink, "Um..."
Shippo glared, "I'll get him. Um, Miss Lady, would happen to know which way that girl was heading?"
Sango tilted her head, "Do you know her?"
Shippo was a horrible liar, he sighed and shook his head, "No..."
"Well then, I doubt she'd want to be greeted the same way I was. What's your name anyway?"
"Shippo..."
Sango smiled, "Well nice to meet you, I'm Sango and that's Miroku, why are you looking for Kagome?"
Shippo thought, "WELLLL, I have a friend who seems to know her and I wanna find my friend. And my friend is looking for her. I don't know what he wants with her though..."
Guess Shippo knew more than Inuyasha had bargained for. (A/N: Poor Inuyasha...lol)

Inuyasha in the meantime, was having a hard enough time following Kagome, without her noticing. He had suspected her sense of demons to be much stronger, but he was glad of her weakness for now and continued following.
Kagome came to a stream and took off her sandals and socks. She put her feet in the water and took in a deep breath of fresh air, "Feels nice to have a break once in awhile."
She suddenly heard rustling in some trees behind her and spun around just in time to see something red fly above the visible branches. She watched the red thing disappear and hopped up. She looked up the tree, "Come down here! WHOEVER YOU ARE!"
"YOU ARENT THE BOSS OF ME!" A voice called down, causing Kagome to almost fall over. She hadn't expected an answer.
"Well...Um...I'll shoot you with some arrows if you don't!"
"You don't HAVE any with you!"
"I CAN GET SOME!"
"YOU CANNOT!"
"CAN TOO!"
"CANNOT!
"CAAAN TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
Her shocking outrage caused the dog demon to lose balance and fall out of the tree and crash into the ground. He looked up at her and glared, spitting out some dirt.
"Serves you right...whoever you are!" Kagome looked down at him and gave him a weird look when he didn't respond. He merely stood up and wiped the dust off. He then started walking away.
"H-hey wait! What were you doing spying on me!? Who are you!?" She ran after him but he leaped into a tree and from there, ran off. Kagome sighed and put on her shoes, and then headed back to the village. She couldn't stop thinking about the silver-haired boy the whole time.
