Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA

Note to Viewers: I do not know if Kagome has cousins in the U.S. and their names are what i put them as-but I chose them and I do not know Kagome's friends' names so i chose some for the next chapter...


Chapter One: Going Home

Kagome stepped out of the Bone Eater's Well,. a sluky look displayed on her face. She was wearing her scholl uniform with a light backpack with a few bits of food and a first aid kit on her back. She did not have her bike or her clothes. 'Should I just come out with it and tel him?' she wondered sadly.

Inuyasha would be furious when she told him the bad news, and Kagome wasn't sure she could stand his anger. He would be mad at her when she culdn't come back to the fedual era to him or would he? Of course he would! Just not sad...

Kagome's cousins who had moved to America seven years ago, were coming to visit and stay at Kagome's place for half a year. There would be no more vanishing into the well until they left...

"Kagome? Where have you been off to?" came an angry voice.

Kagome looked up and saw Inuyasha standing there, his amber eyes pinned on her. Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were behind him. "Inuyasha, I need to talk to you." Kagome informed him.

"About what?" he demanded.

"Shippo, Miroku, Sango will you please leave us for the moment?" Kagome asked.

Shippo cast her a confused look, Sango, a worried look, and Miroku, a look of confusion liek Shippo. When they vanished into the trees, Kagome looked into Inuyasha's eyes and whispered, "I'm leaving here."

"What do you mean you're leaving! I need you to collect the shards!" Inyuyasha snapped.

Kagome's troubled look deepened, "I knew you would say that. You have no feelings for me and I am just your puppet for the shards. Inuyasha, I have to leave because-"

Kagome was caught off my Inuyasha's cutin, "You're not my puppet and I do have feelings for you!"

Kagome looked away, "That's not what I see in you. I know that you only have feelings for me because of Kikyo. It's because I look like that-that stinking witch!"

Inuyasha's face suddenly darkened, "Kikyo is not a witch Kagome!"

"How would you know! You hate me, but love her! I can tell, you see her in me! That's the feelings you claim to have!" Kagome bursts into tears.

"Wha-No stop! Don't cry!" Inuyasha tried to calm her.

Kagome cast him a sorrowful look and spat, "I'm leaving Inuyasha! You have to collect the jewel shards by yourself! I'm not coming back!" Tears streamed down her face, how could she treat him like this on their last meeting for six whole months and maybe more?

"Kagome..." Inuyasha sighed, gripping her arm. Kagome gasped in surprise as he drew her into a tight hug. Then he gently pulled her back, "Good-bye, if you must..."

Kagome's eyes filled with more tears as she nodded, unable to speak, she turned around and headed back to the well, her anger was demolished. Kagome thought she would never know if Inuyasha had feeling for her or not.

Kagome jumped down the well hesitantly, not wanting to leave, but her cousins would be arriving soon, very soon... Just as she was about to leap off, Kagome stopped herself. She turned around to see Inuyasha staring at her, his eyes saddened. Kagome said nothing as she laid her backpack on the ground and then leapt, her throat choked.

When Kagome reached the other side, she climbed up the well and stepped out of the wellhouse. She went inside, wiping the tears from her eyes. "Kagome!" came a loud, excited voice. Kagome turned to see her cousins, Roan and Kinye. Kinye had long brown hair and blue eyes, Roan, he had short black hair with brown eyes.

"H-hey." Kagome managed as her cousins hugged her.

"Whats wrong?" Kinye asked, noticing Kagome's tears still on her face.

"Hm? Oh nothing!" Kagome said, 'Be yourself!' she warned herself mentally.

"She left..." Inuyasha muttered.

"What did you do Inuyasha!" Shippo acussed.

"I...don't know." Inuyasha said quietly.

"Are yo okay? Inuyasha, are you crying?" Miroku asked.

Inuyasha's eyes flashed, his anger roared as he looked at Miroku, "No I'm not crying! Does it look like it to you?" Inuyasha snarled, slamming his fist into a tree, making it fall to the ground, its truck splittering.

"N-No! Of course not! My mistake..." Miroku said, holding uo his hands with a freaked look on his face.

"Good!"

"Kagome, care to show us around?" Kinye asked.

Kagome cast them a look and nodded, and tried her best to smile. "Sure."

"Great!" Roan said, his face smiling.

"Kagome...what's that around your neck?" Kinye suddenly asked, pointing to the chain that held the small piece of the Shikion no Tama. Kagome had shadered it with an arrow when she had first fallen through the well and now she was the one whp purfied the jewel shards as they collected them once more.

Kagome picked up the piece of jewel she had, "Oh...um...it's nothing." she lied.

"Suuuurrrrreeeee!" Roan teased, "So what is it?"

"Its the-" Sota suddenly appeared but then put his hand over his mouth and then said, after glancing at kagome, "None of my bussiness."

"What was your brother trying to say?" Kinye asked.

"Oh, its just something my...boyfirned gave me. He has the other piece." Kagome lied again.

"Oh! Who is it?" Kinye asked.

"No one." Kagome said, know that Inuyasha had no where near even a shard of the jewel, because she had a bottle containing the rest in her room. It was Naraku who had a lot of them and they ahd to get them from him-fast.

"Girls..." Roan muttered. "hey, I'm going to go talk with Sota."

"You do that!" Kinye called after him. "So are you going to show me arond or what?"

Kagome nodded, hiding the jewel and said, "Follow me."

Inuyasha shot past Sango as he rushed the demon in front of him. He had gone in search of something to take his rage and sorrow out on, and what would happen but to come across a demon? Grinning he snarled, "You'll wish you never had ever seen me!"

Inuyasha launched himself into the air and came pelting down, yelling, "Demon slasher soul stealer!" his claws raked cross the demon's head, its snake like body desingrating.

"Very good...now can you handle this?" came a hauntingly fimilar voice.

Inuyasha spun around in mid-air, his air flying in his face, eyes flashing, he saw his archenemy stanind in the trees. "Naraku..." he breathed, his eyes slits. "You killed Kikyo, now you will pay!"
