I do not own Inuyasha or Bleach. This is just a fan made story.
"You can't be serious? Right?" Kagome questioned in disbelief as she put away her school books into the yellow backpack. She didn't want what her ears just heard to be true, it couldn't be.
"Do you think I would joke around about something like this, child?" Lady Kaede asked as she stirred the soup that was slowly heating over the fire. It had been nearly three weeks since the shikon jewel had been fully restored. Miroku and Sango moved to a quite little village out west, or more like Miroku dragged her. Sango on the other hand was holding onto Kagome begging to stay with her in her time with the 'metal tanks you drive' as she put it. Kirara, begrudgingly, followed the couple with a few growls of annoyance at their bickering, or Sango's bickering and Miroku's yelp of pain from being hit.
Inuyasha had busied himself with helping around the village with constructing huts. Many of the small children around the village stayed on his tail as long as they could, amazed by his appearance and strength. When he wasn't working, he stayed in the branches of the trees. Kagome hasn't really talked to him, or visevrsa, since the shikon jewel was reformed that currently resided in a cave with a barrier. It took three days to make the cave and make sure it was well hidden. Lady Kaede made the protective barrier to prevent anyone other than Kagome to enter. Inuyasha was a little upset with it, but understood after all the chaos to repair the jewel.
"But why can't he just stay here?" Kagome frowned as she zipped her backpack up. She had tests to study for school and chores to be done at home. It had been nearly a month since she had been back home in her time. After a while the feudal Era grew a little depressing due to being homesick.
"Why can't he go with you?" Kaede shot back as she smiled smugly, her eyes twinkling slightly.
"Why can't he stay here, at his home?" She fired back. She still had to go see her brother, Sota, who was waiting by the well for her arrival. Kaede sighed as she sat her cane down in her lap. She knew this wasn't going to be easy, but it was the only way.
"You know how he is, this is Inuyasha we are talking about here. He needs to go with you, and get away from here. Get away from the memories of my dear sister, Kikyo."
"What about the Shikon Jewel? If the barrier breaks, he will need to be here to help. I'm not taking him from his home to some foreign place. I have tests to study for. I can't look after him as well." She frowned at the thought. If she failed these test, she would fail 10th grade. And that was not an option. Inuyasha is... well, Inuyasha. He is going to cause trouble, and she doesn't have the time to worry about what he's doing or getting into it.
"He is a grown boy, child. He may be a little troublesome but everyone is sometimes. Sesshomaru will be here to reinforce the protection of the scared jewel, it is on his land."
"But how will I keep him hidden?" Kagome questioned. With his bright red kimono, long silver hair, canine ears, and bright yellow eyes he would stick out like a sore thumb.
"Hidden?"
"In my time, Demons are considered myths. And no one looks anything like Inuyasha. He's not going to blend in. People will be coming after him to take pictures." She explained feeling anxiety build up in her at the thought of the News catching sight of him.
"You'll figure something out. Now go, my child, before it gets dark. You won't make it to the well if you don't leave now." Kaede practically shoved her out of the hut with her backpack in tow. She stumbled into the dirt to make sure she didn't eat it. The sun was starting to set just below the horizion and by the time she did reach the well, it would be dark.
She grumbled as she shuffled towards the forest with lightning bugs guiding her way. Great, just dandy. What could go wrong now? A hanyou going to the future...for how long? Oh, no. How long is this going to be? Inuyasha staying at her house isn't going to be permanent, right?
She let out a yelp when a figure landed in front of her causing her to fall backwards, her weighed down backpack assisting gravity in making her crash. She panicked as she threw her arms out in a poor attempt to catch herself but the ground never met her.
"Woah, where are you going?"
Opening her brown eyes, she was greeted with red. Looking up, Inuyasha's face appeared in front of hers. His golden yellow eyes seemed to glow in the dim light the sun offered as he pulled Kagome against him. A woodsy scent filled her nose as he pulled her to him. The height difference was still a little large as it seemed Inuyasha had grown three inches within the past few months.
"Don't jump out and scare me like that!" She seethed as she pushed his hands away from her waist. She scowled as she walked around him, his eyes wide for a few seconds in surprise. What was wrong with her?
"Hey! You could at least say thank you!" He yelled as he ran after her. He glared after her figure as he caught up to her.
"Where do you think you are going?" He asked spotting her bulky yellow backpack. His body was tired from the days strenuous task of hiding from children and lifting heavy boards, so he slowed his pace a little.
"I'm going home. Where do you think? The Shikon Jewel is fully recovered and in safe hands, I can get back to my life in the future with my family and school work." She stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Swatting away the mosquitos from around her, she adjusted her backpack on her shoulders so it was more comfortable.
"What? Your just heading back like that?!" He yelled annoyed at the sudden news. Although he expected her to return home after finishing the Shikon Jewel, it was still sinking in that he wouldn't be seeing her no longer.
"What about Lady Kaede? Miroku? Sango? Shippo? Kouga? And Kirara? You just gonna leave without saying goodbye?!! What about m-..."
He paused about to continue but decided that listing more people was completely unnecessary. Especially the one he was about to say. He scowled as he reached out and picked Kagome up by her backpack. Her eyebrows furrowed as she looked at the Hanyou holding her up. She smiled as she saw why he was really upset.
"I'm not leaving permanently, Inu. I will still visit, but not as much. And I've already told Sango and everyone bye." He sat her down as she spoke, his eyes narrowed. Continuing on, she started to feel a little bad. She had been traveling all over the feudal era for the past four years for the Shikon Jewel, making friends, as well as enemies, along the way.
She was going to miss camping out under the stars and traveling to different lands. With the feudal era, nothing was really all that dull given the fact you met a demon almost everyday, some being friends. It was like a second home to her; or was a sceond home. Now it will be more like a vacation place to escape the stress that builds up while tending to family and her school.
"Inuyasha! Come on!" She yelled behind her as she duck under the branches of a pine tree, its bark scraping against her cheek roughly.
"I thought you said you going home!" He yelled back as he crossed his arms in his sleeves, his white dog ears twitching in annoyance.
"I am." She replied as she stared at the ground. Why cant she just go ahead and leave him here? Its not like Lady Kaede will find out until tomorrow, by which time she will be long gone. However, Lady Kaede never asked for anything really, maybe because she had part of Kikyo's soul, but she felt a little responsible for the old priestess' happiness. She wanted Kagome to take Inuyasha away from the Feudal Era, so she guessed she really didn't have a choice. But how was she going to explain this to her Mom and Grandfather? She sighed feeling her head already start to ache at the idea of even returning home with a Hanyou in tow.
"And you are coming with me." She added quietly, praying his good sense of hearing gave out during that moment. Then she could jump down the well without any passengers.
"W-what makes you think I would go with you? Tch. I would rather stay with Sesshomaru and Jaken!" Sitting down with his legs crossed, he turned his head to gaze to the left of him. He doesn't have to ho with anybody. He is his own person, and over a century old! Why should some girl give him orders? He didn't need to be bossed around to defeat Naraku, or any of his sidekicks.
But you needed Kagome's help to save you from becoming a full fledged demon, a voice rumbled in the back of his mind causing him to pause. Ever since the Tetsusaiga was stained with Naraku's foul blood, Inuyasha's demon half made itself more prominent by speaking. For a while, he kept this to himself, but soon he informed the old hag. Little help she was, he scoffed. She only recommended he tried speaking with his demon to see what it wanted and if he could get rid of it somehow. Unfortunately, according to the dog demon inside his head, there is no way to dispose of it; not without dying.
He growled low as he thought over what to do, while Kagome was only getting further away with each second. It was dark out now and the stars had come up to parade against the navy blue sky. Demons, without a doubt, would be coming out of their places in search of some poor unsuspecting victim. Being out in the woods alone would only cause trouble if a demon was to decide to set their sights on Kagome.
Holding that thought in mind, he quickly stood up and ran after the retreating human. "Wait, stupid!" He yelled as he saw her standing on the edge of the well. Her body was hunched over a little to dispense the weight of her overly stuffed backpack, her toes balanced on the edge of the old worn down stones. She turned around to see Inuyasha skid to a stop, his silver hair falling around his shoulders in strands.
"Lady Kaede said that you have to come with me, so I guess we are taking a trip together." Tipping forward, she allowed gravity to pull her into the darkness of the well.
Internally, he couldn't help but smile. It wasn't an appeasing thought to be leaving the place he was born and raised in, but it wasn't like it was forever.
