Young at Heart

night settled across fuedal japan the land of musashi grew quiet leaving nature to be the only sound on this humid summer

night. kagome settled down into her sleeping bag watching her half-demon protecter stoke the camp fire. consumed in the

thoughts that raced across her mind she did not realize him staring back. as he looked upon her he began to wonder why she

looked so sad. the one thing that had been bothering her all day long had come back and began to ail and nag her tired mind.

the shikon no tama(jewel of four souls) was almost completed kohaku, kouga, and naraku had the only remaining shards, once

the shards were colected and the jewel was whole again inuyasha would wish to become a full demon and she would have no

reasong to remain in the fuedal era. once the jewel was whole she would return to the present and never see her friends ever

again. she looked around her to her companions the lovely young demon slayer, the perverted monk, the young fox demon,

and the half-demon, her friends, they all were like family to her the monk miroku was wise and kind though he was a pervert

kagome almost felt like he was a father figure to a oung school girl needing guidance and advise. songo, the demon slayer,

kagome could share anything with her, they would gossip back and forth and laugh about things together almost like two

sisters would, and that was how kagome felt about her, she was like an older sister. shippo, was a young fox demon whose

father and mother were killed, the orphaned child joined the group and unconciously let kagome slip slowly into motherhood

the fox child was like her own son and they were very close. but a child would not be whole without a father, which is where

the half-demon inuyasha comes in to kagome he was a love interest.

(kagome: I DO NOT LOVE INUYASHA!! (blushing) we are just friends...besides he has kykio

me: yeah but this is my story! buzz off or i won't make you two get together...now on with the story)
