This is just some musings. Once I get to the point I originally wanted to write, I will stop unless I get more musings or if people want me to continue it. Enjoy ig


Kagome threw her bag out of the well before climbing out, the action getting easier every time she did it. She lifted the bag, and put it on her back grunting a bit from how heavy it was. She started to make her way towards the village. Then she heard a familiar sound.

Kagome looked up at the sky where she heard the sound from, making a connection. "Those are Kikyo's soul collectors… Is she close?" She began to follow them, having to run to keep up. "That means Kikyo is nearby… Inuyasha might be with her!" Determined, she followed the soul collectors, unknowingly and effortlessly passing through Kikyo's barrier.

When she saw Inuyasha and Kikyo together, she stopped suddenly and hid behind a nearby tree to watch the scene with wide eyes.


Kagome's P.O.V.

I watched as Inuyasha held Kikyo in a tight embrace.

"Kikyo… I never stop thinking about you, not even for a moment!" He confessed. She looked at him with something in her eyes. Was it love? Pity? She slowly leaned in for a kiss, and he returned it passionately. I knew it… Inuyasha still loves her... My eyes were brimming with tears. I'm an idiot… Why am I sitting here watching them kissing? Is it true? Am I really in love with Inuyasha? After watching them kiss passionately for a few minutes, Kikyo finally pulled away.

"I cannot linger here. I need to go." Inuyasha tried to pull her back, but her soulcollectors pulled her away and lifted her to the sky. The two of them held eye connection until she drifted out of site. They're perfect for each other… Lost in my thoughts, I dropped my bag, which landed with a thud. Inuyasha's head snapped towards the sound.

There's no use in hiding… He knows I'm here… I stepped out with my bag in my hand, looking at him in his eyes. He had this expression on his face. It was… peaceful…

"Kagome…" No! I didn't want to hear him explain. There was nothing to say. It was obvious that he wanted to be with Kikyo. Before he could say anything else, I had run off back where I came. He had made his choice. I didn't hear him run after me.


"... So, if Inuyasha comes back, tell him I'm going home." I laughed awkwardly as I took the medical supplies out of my backpack.

"Are you okay, Kagome?" Sango asked, a little confused. I don't think Inuyasha wants me to come back…

"I'm fine!" I said hurriedly once my back was empty. I then got up and left, going back home and being careful to avoid Inuyasha. However, I didn't know that the others would follow my tracks soon after.


Regular P.O.V.

Sango, Miroku, and Shippo came upon the well shortly after Kagome left.

"So, this is the bone-eaters well?" Sango asked curiously, feeling the wood.

"Yes. Somehow, this well allows Kagome and Inuyasha to pass through between time periods." Miroku observed. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Inuyasha come out of the forest with a satisfied look on his face. He turned to face him. "There you are, Inuyasha. Kagome just left. She wanted us to tell you that she was going back home."

Inuyasha looked at them, a bit dazed. "Uh… Yeah… I just saw her."

Sango inspected him closely. "Hey, what's with that face, Inuyasha? You look like you're on cloud nine. You're not yourself. Did something happen?"

"Um… Yeah… Sort of…" Miroku then put two and two together.

"You saw Kikyo, didn't you?" After no response, the answer was obvious. "Inuyasha, you dirty dog!"

Shippo got angry, and began to punch and kick at his leg. "Inuyasha, how could you?!"

Sango gave him a stern look. "No wonder Kagome was acting strange. That poor girl. She saw you two, didn't she?"

Inuyasha didn't attempt to hide anything. "Yeah, she did…"

Miroku was upset as well. "You don't have anything to say for yourself? Wow, Inuyasha."

The half-demon had had enough. "Get off my back, alright?" His temper returned once he snapped out of his blissful state. "I've made my decision. I owe my life to Kikyo. I will follow her into the depths of hell, if that's what her heart desires."

Shippo got even angrier. "What about Kagome?! Inuyasha, you idiot!" Inuyasha began to walk off and the fox demon wanted to follow him desperately, but Miroku stopped him.

"Kagome belongs in her own time," said Inuyasha before he was out of earshot.

The monk sighed. "Don't push it, Shippo. He's made his decision."
