Chapter1:The Last Shards

Kagome could sense something BIG nearby with 3 shards,the last 3 shards they needed to complete the Shikon jewel."Something with 3 shards is coming this way,very fast!!"she fearfully said.In a few minutes a cat-like demon steps out of the woods into the clearing.Inuyasha charges up to it and kills it instantly with his claws."Good job Inuyasha,that didn't take very long."said Kagome with happiness."Feh."he growled. "So,what are you going to do with the Shikon jewel,Inuyasha?Turn into a full-fledged demon?"said Kagome curiously."Why do you wanna know anyway?Is it any of your business,wench?"Inuyasha only said that because he himself didn't even know what he was gonna do with it.'I really hope he doesn't become a full demon.If he does he might hurt Miroku,Sango,Shippo,or even worse,me.'Kagome thought sadly. Inuyasha had thought about what would happen when they completed the Shikon jewel.Kagome would probably go back to her own time,he really didn't want that to happen but,he'd never admit it.He also had thought about becoming full demon but decided not to because he figured he'd have no self- control and was afraid of what he would do. Then suddenly Inuyasha's thoughts were interupted by hearing the sound of Sango slapping Miroku because he groped her butt."You creep!Can't you at least try not to be a pervert!Is it that hard!etc..."Sango was basically screaming right in Miroku's ear and when she was done yellin at him,she slapped him again and walked up to Kagome."Honestly,I don't know what is wrong with him.He hasn't done that to me in a long time,I mean, I thought he'd gotten over his pervertedness,oh well,I guess not."Sango said with a sigh. Suddenly Kikyou walked out of the woods,threw her arms around Inuyasha's neck,and kissed him."I'm so happy to see you!"she said with a false delight."Ya right." Inuyasha said under his breath.Kagome stood amazed and half ready to kill Kikyou then and there.'She better keep her hands off of Inuyasha!Hey,wait a second,what am I saying?Why should I care?Its not like we're going out or anything?Why AM I so jealous?'Kagome couldn't figure out why she was jealous,and Shippo & Miroku noticed.They started to snicker then Kagome gave them a death glare and they stopped.
END OF CH1!

Chapter2:Kikyou's Evil Plot

The Inuyasha gang was walking in the forest accompanied by Kikyou.They had been walking in complete silence since she had gotten there.Finally,Kagome breaks the silence,"So,why exactly are you here this time,Kikyou?"Kikyou just gave her a blank stare.Next she laid her head on Inuyasha's shoulder.He looked at her like she was crazy,then back at Kagome and noticed she was very jealous and was just staring blankly at the ground. Miroku didn't notice anything that was going on because he was staring up at the sky,walking,and daydreaming about Sango all at the same time.He was dreaming that they were in a nice restaurant eating and talking and after that they went on a walk in the moonlight,then,they kissed.His dream was interupted by Sango,"Hey Miroku are you ok?"Miroku,still in a daze,said,"Ya,I was just thinking about something." "What were you thinking about?" Sango asked curiously."Uhh,nothing,just about somebody."Miroku realized what he just said and hoped she wouldn't ask what she was about to ask."Who?"she asked in a demanding tone.He just looked at her trying to think about what to say when she said,"If you don't wanna tell me,you don't have to."Miroku just mumbled,"Ok." Kagome was walking at the very back of the group,Miroku and Sango in the middle,and Kikyou and Inuyasha up front.Since Kagome was jealous she decided to go up by Inuyasha on the right.Kikyou glared at her from the left side,but she ignored her.Inuyasha looked at Kikyou then Kagome and just sighed.Kagome took Inuyasha's hand and held it in hers.At first it was limp,then he squeezed her hand back.Kagome and Inuyasha were both blushing.Kikyou didn't notice because she had her arm around Inuyasha's left arm and was plotting how to trick him and take him to hell with her.Then she changed her mind and decided to trick him then kill him instead. Finally it was nightfall and they set up camp.Kagome was under the tree Inuyasha was in and Kikyou was in the far front of it.Evryone went to sleep very quickly.Inuyasha sat up in his tree and watched Kagome.'She's so beautiful when she's sleeping.She's always beautiful though.Feh,what am I thinking.'Soon after a while of thinking about Kagome,he went to sleep.As soon as Kikyou noticed he was asleep she went out deep into the forest to a cave by a lake."Naraku,Naraku!!!Are you here?"After a couple of moments Naraku appeared behind her."What is it,Lady Kikyou?"Surprised, Kikyou spun around and answered him,"I need you to send one of your demons after me tomorrow morning to carry me away somewhere.Go to where the demon takes me then I'll tell you what else to do.This time I WILL kill Inuyasha!"She laughed evily. END OF CH.2!

Chapter3:Kikyou's Evil Plot 2

The next morning they all woke up early and Kagome fixed food from her time for breakfast.Of couse,Inuyasha had Ramen.They didn't notice Kikyou was gone until they were ready to leave.Kagome looked around the forest but couldn't find her."She can fend for herself,I'm sure.If she can't,too bad!"Inuyasha growled.Soon they were headed to Kaede's village to tell her they completed the jewel. Back at the cave a demon had Kikyou tied up and had wounded her."Good work demon,I'll make sure Naraku holds up his end of the deal."Not too far away Inuyasha picked up her scent."I found Kikyou's scent,I'm going after her!"he yelled.Kagome and the others followed him through the woods to the cave.Inuyasha walked inside the cave and killed the demon,then asked Kikyou if she was ok."I don't think I'm gonna make it.Tell the others to please leave."As he did the not-so-dead demon silently grabbed Kagome and ran off with her.The others didn't notice until it was almost time to leave."She probably just got upset or something,she'll be ok."said Miroku with confidence.When Inuyasha came out Kikyou was following behind him,weakly(she was faking,of course)."We'll take her to Kaede then..."Inuyasha was cut-off by Sango,"KAGOME'S MISSING!!!!!!!!!!" 'You just now noticed that?'thought Miroku with a sigh.Inuyasha gave Kikyou a 'I bet you had something to do with this' look then told Miroku to take Kikyou to Kaede.Sango and Shippo decided to go with Miroku.Inuyasha ran off into the forest in the direction where he could find her scent.When he found her the demon was about to kill her.He yelled,"KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF HER!!!"Then,he killed the demon.Kagome woke up and looked really scared,"Inuyasha,look behind you!"It was too late.Inuyasha felt a sharp pain in his back.Kikyou had shot him in the back with an arrow. END CH3!

Chapter4:Kagome's Choices

Inuyasha was stunned but not badly hurt.He turned around to see Kikyou grinning evily."One more arrow and you'll be dead Inuyasha!"She laughed evily.Before he knew what had happened Kagome had jumped in the way of the arrow and it pierced her heart.Kikyou was distressed and ran away cursing Kagome in her mind."Kagome!Why did you do that?You might die!"Inuyasha felt a single tear roll down his cheek."I couldn't let her kill you.If she had killed you I might as well have been dead."Kagome said trying to smile.Inuyasha was shocked by her last staement."I'll take you to Kaede,she'll know what to do."As he lifted Kagome she kissed him on the cheek and said,"Thank you,Inuyasha."He blushed and mumbled,"Your welcome." Miroku was a bit surprised when Kikyou said she'd go to the village herself and ran off.Sango and Miroku didn't bother to chase her,they just walked silently towards the village. 'Why did I let this happen,she could die!I definitely can't let that happen. . .'Inuyasha was beating himself up inside for first of all letting Kagome get kidnapped,hurt,almost killed,then shot by an arrow that was meant for him.'But. . . she kissed me. . .'Inuyasha rubbed the warm spot on his cheek with his free hand.He looked at Kagome.She was holding tightly onto his coat,but was fast asleep.'She's so beautiful. . .' It wasn't long until they made it to the village.Kaede asked what happened and Inuyasha told her.Kagome woke up and put her hand to the place where the arrow had hit."A few days rest and some bandages should cure this problem."Kaede said confidently.Sango and Kaede took Kagome to the other room to nurse her wounds.Miroku sat quietly for a while,then broke the silence,"What happened?" "You heard what happened when I told Kaede!"Inuyasha growled.Miroku looked at him accusingly,"I mean WHAT ELSE happened?" "Feh.Why should I tell you anyway?"Miroku thought for a moment."Because I might just tell Kagome something you said about her once in your sleep. . ."Miroku grinned and Inuyasha had a scared look on his face."Oh!Alright!"Inuyasha growled rather stressfully.Miroku heard him say stupid monk under his breath but ignored it."I. . .I um. . . was bringing her back here. . .and um. . . she uh. . ." "Well???"Miroku said very concerned.". . .kissed me on the cheek. . .are you happy now??"Miroku just grinned a huge grin,elbowed Inuyasha and said,"Ok."Kaede came out from the other room and said,"Inuyasha,Kagome wishes to see you."Miroku looked at him and just smiled. END OF CH4!

Chapter5:Inuyasha's Confession

Kagome was laying on the floor obviously in pain.She had red spots all over her clothes from the bleeding and in some places,it was torn a little.She rolled her head over slowly as Inuyasha sat down beside her,Indian-style."I'm glad you came!"She smiled brightly."Are you gonna be ok?"Inuyasha asked,holding her hand.Kagome was a little shocked by his action so it took her a minute or two to answer,"I'll be fine in a couple of days.The reason I wanted you to come in here was so I could give you the Shikon jewel."She reached round her neck,pulled it off,and handed it to Inuyasha.He hesitated for a moment and pushed it back urging her to keep it."Come here." she said and he leaned over.She hugged him with all the strength she had left.Then when she laid back down,she had Inuyasha's necklace in her hands.He was a little surprised wondering how she had done that,then he felt around his neck and he was wearing the necklace with the Shikon jewel on it.Kagome laughed at the shocked look on his face."I haven't told you to sit in a long time,I probably won't have to ever again,anyway."She said as she put his necklace around her neck.Inuyasha was feeling of the jewel trying to think of what to do with it."I need to go in the other room so I can go to sleep."Inuyasha said as he was getting up to walk out the door."Wait,I wanted you to stay in here with me tonight,please?"Kagome looked at him with dewy eyes.He looked at her for a minute and said yes.It wasn't long before she went to sleep.She had scooted over beside Inuyasha and put an arm round him before she went to sleep.He just sat there looking at her thinking many thoughts about her.'She's sooooo beautiful,I need to tell her how I feel,I hope she gets better. . .'Stuff like that. The next morning when Kagome woke up Inuyasha had his arms around her.She smiled and held him closer.He woke up."Good morning Inuyasha!" "Good morning,do you feel any better?"he asked sleepily."Yup!"she said staring him straight in the eyes.'Now is as good a time as any.'he thought."Kagome,I...um....have something to tell you. . ."Kagome looked at him sorta funny but said ok.He held her closer and whispered in her ear."I love you." END OF CH5!

Chapter6:Love is in the Air!(lol)

From the look on her face Inuyasha thought Kagome was gonna kill him.She held him as tightly as possible and whispered in his ear very softly,"You don't know how long I've been waiting for you to say that.I love you too!I thought you were still madly in love with your dead girlfriend,Kikyou."Inuyasha was so happy he squeezed her a little too tight and realized it when she cried out(not loud though)in pain.He kept apoligizing so much Kagome thought she'd never get another word in."Ok,sorry,Kikyou was never actually my girlfriend,sorry."He said looking her in the eyes."I forgive you.You don't have to apologize anymore."with that Inuyasha carefully held her tight and kissed her passionately the way he had always wanted to.They were both a bit flustered after that. Suddenly Miroku opened the door and said with a grin,"Sorry I interupted you guys!" "Hey wait!You've got the wrong idea!"Inuyasha yelled.Kaede came in and announced that Kagome should be healed enough to walk now. She made Inuyasha turn around while she changed from her PJ's to her normal clothes. The group decided to stay at the village a while because they really didn't have anything else to do. Kaede cooked breakfast and everyone ate.Miroku and Sango talked,Shippo went out to a field to play,and Kagome asked Inuyasha,"Why don't we go on a walk,I'm sure it will make me feel even better." "Ok" he mumbled. Many,many miles away Kikyou was outraged by Kagome's actions."Why did she have to do that,I almost could've died and been happy!" Kagome walked cheerfully down the path in the woods,glancing at Inuyasha when he wasn't looking."So,have you figured out what your gonna do with the jewel yet?" "No."Inuyasha mumbled."You've been mumbling all morning,are you ok?" 'Nothing is wrong with me,I just. . .want you so bad,but I'm afraid you won't accept me.'Inuyasha thought.As if she was reading his mind Kagome's cheeks went pink as she walked a bit closer to him,"I love you very much,Inuyasha".Inuyasha looked at her a little surprised.He said(He SAID it,he didn't mumble!YAY!)"I love you more than you'll ever know."She didn't know exactly what to do and stopped walking,shocked."Uh,Kagome are you ok?" "Ya,I'm fine.".'He actually said he loved me back!=D'thought Kagome happily.Inuyasha saw the huge smile spread across her face,and hoped it was he who caused it. END OF CH6!

Chapter7:Love is in the Air 2

Kagome couldn't help it,she kept staring at Inuyasha with great happiness in her eyes.He noticed and didn't mind.Then,finally it got to him.He stopped,spun her around and kissed her,french kissed her.She was a bit shocked but completely pleased.She hugged him and he hugged her back.Then,they decided to go back to the village. Miroku was soooo happy that he and Sango were having such a good conversation.But,it scared him when all of a sudden Sango was quiet.'I want to tell him I love him now,but I'm not sure.I'll talk to Kagome about it first!'She thought happily.At that moment Inuyasha and Kagome came in.Miroku noticed first thing that Inuyasha had his arm around Kagome's waist and couldn't help but ask,"What happened????"Inuyasha stood there like he had to think for a minute,"None of your business.Why have you been so nosy lately anyway?"The monk didn't know exactly what to say to that.Sango motioned to Kagome to meet her in the other room.Then,Shippo burst through the door,exausted from a full day of playing.He curled up against the wall and went to sleep. Kagome sat there a minute trying to figure out what was going on when Sango said in almost a whisper,"I love Miroku but,I can't find the right time to tell him and I'm afraid he doesn't love me back."Sango started to cry a little."Calm down,it'll be ok.Tell him when its just you and him,after a good conversation,thats my advice."Sango stopped crying and calmed down."I'll get Inuyasha to go somewhere with me so you and Miroku can talk,ok?"Kagome said."Ok!Sounds great!Thank you so much!" Kagome asked Inuyasha to go to her time with her to get something.Miroku finally started talking and after about an hour of them both talking he got quiet."Sango,I have something to tell you. . ."Sango looked at him and hoped it was what she thought it was."I . . . .uh. . .I. . .lo. . . .lo- love. . .you!"He finally said.Sango was so happy she accidentally knocked him over and kissed him. Kagome and Inuyasha came in about then.Inuyasha mimicking Miroku said,"Sorry I interupted you guys!"Everyone laughed except Miroku. END OF CH7!

Chapter 8:The Beginning of the Purification!

Miroku and sango blushed.Miroku mimicking Inuyasha said,"You've got the wrong idea!Its not what it looks like!"Inuyasha growled,"Ya right."Sango gave him a death glare and he stopped smirking.Kagome walked up to Sango and whispered in her ear,"Did it work?"Sango scooted a bit away from Miroku and said yes.Inuyasha being nosy asked,"What happened?"Miroku said "None of your business." "You kissed her,didn't you?" "NO!She. . . uh. . .kissed me!!!!!"Sango started flirting with Miroku and he got so happy he just flirted back non-stop.Inuyasha noticed Kagome was getting lonely so he got up and sat by her."So,whats up?" "Where did you learn to say that?" "I um,heard some people in your time use it." "Oh.In that case,not much just talking to you.How about you?" "Not much."Inuyasha laughed. Inuyasha started to flirt (hmm,strange) with Kagome.She noticed and got a little curious,but just ignored it and flirted back.Before thay knew it,it was time to go to bed.Sango and Miroku shared a spot on the floor,as did Kagome and Inuyasha.It didn't take Kagome long to go to sleep.Inuyasha just sat there and held her in his arms,watching her.Same goes for Sango and Miroku.The boys just sat there,adoring the girls in there arms(aaaaaaawwwwwwww!lol,sorry!). The next morning they all woke up and Kaede fixed breakfast.After that they discussed where they should go and what they should do now.Everyone knew Naraku would come after them soon for the Shikon jewel.Inuyasha suggested that,if she knew how,Kagome should purify the jewel.Kagome said a little worried,"I'll try,but I'm not exactly sure if it will work.It will take a couple of days and no one can disturb me!" Inuyasha gave the jewel to Kagome and said he'd make sure no one got to her,and that he'd go outside and guard the house.Miroku said he'd go with him.Kagome went in an empty room,mumbled something and the jewel started to glow. END OF CH8!

Chapter 9:Hatred,Jealousy,and Betrayl

All of the sudden an arrow came flying out of the woods,hit Miroku in the arm,and pinned him to the outside of the house(Guess who?).Kikyou stepped out of the woods and walked up to Inuyasha."Destroy the jewel and come away with me.Not to hell,but,somewhere."She then slowly and softly kissed Inuyasha.There just so happened to be a window in the room Kagome was in tht gave her a front row seat.All of the sudden the jewel stopped glowing,quit floating,and dropped to the ground.It began to fill with more jealousy and hatred.Now it might be nearly impossible to purify it.'Why?. . .'was all that Kagome could think of.She began to cry.She grabbed her things,including the jewel,and ran out the door.Inuyasha pushed Kikyou away and asked Kagome,"Whats wrong,did you purify the jewel?"Kagome looked at him,eyes full of tears and yelled,"No its not purified and it probably never will be!I saw you and Kikyou!Inuyasha. . .how could you do this to me?I thought you. . .loved me?"Kikyou didn't give Inuyasha time to answer,"I'm not Naraku,by the way,I came up with this plan myself,and not because I wanted the jewel,but because I wanted Inuyasha!He'd NEVER love a wench like you!"Kagome started to run away but Inuyasha grabbed her and started running.When he was sure they were far away from Kikyou he put her down.She slapped him and sobbed even more.He tried to explain,"I didn't kiss her,SHE kissed me!And didn't you notice I wasn't kissing back,or putting my arms around her?" "Yes I saw,but I know you still have strong feelings for her,or you would've pushed her away before you saw me!I'm going back to my own time,destroying the jewel and NEVER coming back here!!!"Kagome sobbed.Kikyou had found them and was watching from the forest with great amusement and pleasure(She is one sick OLD lady!). END OF CH9!

Chapter 10:Kagome Changes Her Mind

"I. . .love you more than her!I promise on my life!If I had've loved her more don't you think I would've left with her already!I admit,I still love her a bit,but I'm learning to forget her because of. . .you."Inuyasha said as he started to cry a little.Kagome was shocked.Inuyasha wasn't sure what she was about to do,the look on her face confused him.It started to rain.Kagome finally woke up from her trance and hugged Inuyasha,nearly knocking him over.She took out the jewel and mumbled,"Because of Kikyou,the jewel can probably never be fully purified ever again."Inuyasha took the jewel and put it in his coat,"WE shouldn't need it anyway."Kagome didn't understand that statement and just shrugged.They got under a tree to keep from getting wet.They sat a while and Inuyasha took Kagome,sat her in his lap,and whispered in her ear,"Will you go out with me?"Kagome nearly fainted and sat there and looked at him a minute.Kikyou freaked out,fell,and fainted for a moment after hearing that.By now he figured out when he couldn't read her face expression she was overly shocked.He smiled and hugged her.That made her realize what just happened and said,"Where did you learn to say that?" "I heard a guy in your time ask a girl that,then,I figured out what it meant." "In that case,yes,yes,yes,YES!"Inuyasha smiled like Kagome had never seen him smile before.Kagome soon fell asleep,because it was getting night time.Kikyou,outraged of course stepped out of the woods and walked to Inuyasha.She sat by him."Leave me alone,Kikyou!I'm finally happy,and I think my heart and trust for people very close to me has came back.You were the one who took them away in the first place."Kikyou just sat there staring and trying to think of something smart to do.Her emotions were going berzerk,she started to cry and Inuyasha told her,"Stop shedding tears,I'll never be yours again.My heart now belongs to Kagome.Even if she someday hates me and leaves me,I won't give up on her.She shouldn't be your reincarnation,she's NOTHING at all like you!"Kikyou,emotionally hurt and shocked did the only thing she knew to do:got her bow and arrow,and aimed it at Kagome.
