authors note: no...I don't own Inuyasha. Yes, it does suck, doesn't it?

The wind whispered secrets that night. That fateful night that would change their lives. The trees didn't dance with the wind and the stars didn't shine very bright. But, no one seemed to notice much. The air was full of tension. Still, no one noticed. A teenage girl shivered from her place on the cold, hard ground. Her sleeping bag lay forcefully tossed beside her. It must have been thrown from her in her restless slumber. And still not a soul noticed, as the wind changed its direction.

Inuyasha sat beside a dying fire with his head on his Tetsaiga. He wrinkled his nose and opened his eyes slightly, only to close them again seconds later in exhaustion.

Nothing was out of place. That was just the way he liked it. In satisfaction he drifted into a deep sleep.

Kagome rolled up her sleeping bag as the suns warmth bathed Kagome's pale skin. Looking toward the sky, she raised her arm to her face to block the light. The sun was directly above her. It had to be noon. 'Why didn't anyone wake me up?' She pondered the thought for a minute, and then decided to find the others. She pulled her heavy backpack onto her shoulders before heading through the forest toward the well.

Reaching the well, Kagome took a look around until her eyes fell upon Inuyasha... and Kikyo. Kagome stood still, her heart was pounding to fast for her to even breathe. She listened to every word that left Inuyasha's lips.

"Inuyasha, I want to be with you. I know you want to be with me too. Leave the other girl. Leave Kagome." Kikyo stared into Inuyasha's eyes with a pleading look.

"But..." He looked away, not wanting to answer Kikyo.

"Never mind, I understand Inuyasha. That girl means a lot to you. Much more than I ever will." Kikyo's hand graced a soul catcher that passed by her.

"No. You are everything to me, Kikyo. If my soul is what you want, that is what you shall have. Besides, Kagome is only her to help purify the sacred jewel so it will be out of our lives forever."

"Then, she is nothing more to you than a tool?" Kikyo asked questioningly.

"...yes" Inuyasha said as he pulled Kikyo close to him and kissed her passionately.

Kagome couldn't take any more. Her heart had been ripped in two. She screamed louder than she had ever screamed before. Inuyasha ran to her and began shaking her as if trying to get her to stop. She squeezed her eyes shut as she heard him calling her name.

"Kagome... Kagome wake up!"

Suddenly, Kagome bolted up opening her eyes to see Inuyasha. It was still night time. She was still in her sleeping bag (kind of) and Kikyo was no where in sight.

"Kagome, you were having a nightmare." Inuyasha said trying to calm her fast beating heart. He could hear her heartbeat slow down a little with those words. "What had you so scared?"

"...Nothing... thank you for waking me up, Inuyasha." The girl said as she rolled to her side away from his gaze. Kagome curled up into her sleeping bag and tried to fall back asleep.

"Feh, next time try not to scream in my ear so I won't have to wake you up." The annoyed hanyou turned away from her but glanced back when she didn't answer him. He gave her a worried look. 'What happened to you, kagome? What did you dream about?'
