Matsu and kagomae have always the very best of friends. matsu's family was killed many years ago and kagomae talked her family into allowing matsu to live with them. many years later kagomae and matsu went exploring everyday and than one day they found a well that was fully empty than they had an idea and wanted to see what was at the bottom so the jumped down the well but when they did it was not a short jump like they thought it would be instead it was a very long jump they both saw a light to dark blue sky with many little stars passing by them. than they finally came to the ground.
kagomae where are we
kagomae than looked around and said
i dont know but i can see a ladder
than they both climbed out of the well but instead of being home they were somewhere else. than they started walking around than they heard something. they both became scared than this huge monster came out of no where. well not exactly nowhere it came from the ground it was a giant centipede.
"ahhh"
than all of a sudden two men came running towards them both.
"get down "
after hearing one of the men say this they both quickly ran for cover. kagomae and matsu quickly ran for the trees but the large centipede quickly grabbed them both.
"come here lunch."
than matsu took the knife that she had hidden in her jeans and stabbed the creature until it finally died than after kagomae and matsu was free they both than ran the men than just looked at matsu once matsu and kagomae got to safety than they finished the job matsu had her hand resting on the tree that she was standing by watching the two men kill the monster that had nearly killed them.
"its okay you can come out "
kagomae than came out from her hiding spot and than matsu but just as she came up to the man in armor and fur matsu than lost control of her body and fell but the man than caught her in his arms.
are you okay?
i guess that thing did something to me"
than he looked at her and notice that the creatures spine had cut her deeply in the leg and that she had lost alot of blood than she passed out
hey inuyasha im going to take her to kaede
ok i'll meet you there
than he picked her up and quickly ran to kaede's village a few days past and he stayed by herside the whole time. then she started to wake up to see him holding her hand she than became afraid. after matsu slapped him out of fright
it's okay im not going to hurt you
what have you done to kagomae
its okay she is outside with inuyasha... my name is koga
"where am i?"
your at kaede's...you lost alot of blood and i brought you here.
you did?
yes
Than she calmed down and sat up and said
i think i remember you
you do
yes...i think you tried to save me and kagomae from a giant centipede that tried to make luch out of us
he than smiled
yes that was me and inuyasha
thank you
your welcome
but where did you learn to fight like that i have never seen a woman fight like that before
well it was just out of instinct i guess
she than smiled at him
knock, knock
come in
koga how is she
come and see your self inuyasha
than he walked in with kagoma once kagomae saw her friend was okay she ran to her
matsu thank god your okay
yeah kagomae
i thought that i lost you
kagomae if he didnt get me here i would be dead
than kagomae looked at him
thank you
your welcome
a few moments later kaede came in
hello matsu and kagomae
hello
matsu this is kaede
how are you feeling
much better thank you
a few days than past than matsu got up and walked outside when she saw the sea she than walked to it. and sat down next to the sea shore. when koga,inuyasha, and kagomae returned and did not see her anywhere they both became worried than kaede walked in with a letter from matsu to koga.
Dear koga
thank you so much for saving my life and my dear friend kagomae but i have decided that it would be best if i had some time alone to think and the other night i heard you and kagomae talking. i know that you love her deeply i saw the both of you kiss so i will just leave im positive that she will be just fine with you. and im positive that you will keep her safe so i hope you have a nice life together. please don't come looking for me and tell kagomae that i will miss her. good bye matsu.
than after koga read the letter he than gave it to inuyasha. than koga walked outside a few moments later he saw matsu at the sea shore she was walking up to kaede's
matsu
hello koga im only here to get my stuff than im leaving
please matsu dont go
koga i know you love kagomae so i feel it would be best if i leave because i ant love someone who loves someone else
than she walked past him and grabbed her stuff than she walked out of kaede's home
where will you go?
i dont know but anywhere is better than here goodbye
than she walked up to him and kissed him on the cheek.
hope you and kagoma have a good life together
than she walked away but just before she walked further away into the darkness she turned to him and to kaede's home
and koga
yes matsu
if you want to know why im leaving it is because i love you and i dont want to hurt you good bye and dont come looking for me
than she turned towards the darkness and walked away further into the darkness were koga could not see her. months went by and she cried her self to sleep for she missed koga so much than years went by.
meanwhile in another part of the land:
inuyasha and koga were fighting with each other more and more everyday until one day marsu came to the very village that they were at kagomae did not know that she was there until koga could smell her scent than he ran to her. once matsu noticed him she ran away. towards the sea shore and hid behind the tree's months went by and day by day inuyasha could see that nothing would ever bring koga back to his self unless he had matsu back in his life he was so miserable than one day inuyasha told kagomae to watch over koga while he went to find matsu. a few weeks went by and than inuyasha finally found matsyu.
matsu
inuyasha?
yes its me
what do you want
matsu please come back to koga
inuyasha i cant
why not he loves you so much he is so miserable he has lost all of his will to fight since the day that you left he has cried so much.
he has but doesn't he love kagomae
no he doesn't he loves you so much
matsu than walked up to him
inuyasha tell him that i miss and love him to but when i told him to not come looking for me i meant that i needed time and it was always up to him to come and find me. i have been waiting on him and i have been wonderig this world alone and that evrsince that night that i left kaede's village i have felt so miserable to the point that i cry myself to sleep every night. please tell him that.
i will
and if he want me back he only has to tell me himself and not to send his friends to do his work
i will
and inuyasha thank you for telling me
of course than he left a few weeks later inuyasha came back to kagomae and koga
inuyasha did you find matsu
yes but i need to give koga a message from her
than he walked up to koga
koga i found matsu

yes she gave me a message to give to you she wrote it down for you
ok
than inuyasha gave him the letter and it said
Dear Koga
I miss and love you so much, but when i told you to not come to find me i actually meant that i needed sometime by myself. it was always up to you to come and find me. i have been waiting for you for so many years, and eversince that night that i left kaede's i have been so miserable that i cry myself asleep everyday. And when i ran from you in the vilage a ew years ago i was afraid of what would happen i never meant to hurt you but when i saw you at the village at first i was so happy to see you but when you ran towards me i ran if you want me back than come and find and tell me yourself i love you so much Matsu
after koga read the letter he was so happy than he got up
inuyasha kagoma i will be back in a few weeks im going to find matsu

than a few weeks went by matsu was still in the forest were they met a few minutes went by than she walked out of the forest and sat next to the well a few minutes went by than koga saw her and walked out of the forest matsu than saw him. Matsu than walked towards him and koga walked towards her. than when the both were looking to each others eyes
matsu im so sorry i didn't come sooner i lo..
matsu than put her finger to his mouth
i know than she kissed him on the mouth than she pulled awy from him and turned away so that he could not see the tears.
CHAPTER 4: LOVE FINALLY SHOWN ON THE SURACE
koga im so sorry that i left i never meant to hurt you.

than he held her close to him
but were together now matsu
than turned to him her head was still down in shame than koga picked her head up than he saw the tears streaming down her facethan he kissed her holding her close to him. than he released his kiss from her.

koga than smiled and picked her up than he ran her home a few more weeks went by than they came to where kagomae and inuyasha. were. than koga put matsu down.

kagomae than ran to her but when kagomae ran into her all of kagomaes strength knocked her down to the ground but koga quickly caught her before she landed on a sharp rock
thank you koga
no problem
few hours past than they started to get tired kagomae fell asleep with inuasha and koga was about to fall asleep but matsu got up and walked near the edge of a cliff than she looked back at her friends and the man that she had always loved. than she turned to the view of the moonlight. koga than got up and walked over to her.

CHAPTER 5 :SAYING GOOD BYE
the next day kagomae and matsu traveled back to the well and went back home but before they left matsu and koga kissed each other deeply and passionatly holding each other in each other's arm tightly. kagomae and inuyasha hugged each other good bye and nothing else. than koga and matsu released their kisses.
hey kagomae
than kagomae than turned around to inuyasha

matsu than looked at inuyasha with a look that said "inuyasha your asking for it stop before she kills you"
inuyasha sit!
than inuyasha was quite literaly thrown on the ground making a huge hole in the ground
kagomae was that necessary
yes
than they left after matsu and kagomae returned home months went by and matsu still was thinking about koga she felt like he was next to her everywhere that she went. when she dreamed she dreamt of him.

than inuyasha looked at matsu and noticed she was very upset about something than kaede poured some alcohal on his wound he than yelled kaede than quickly bandaged it before he tried to slap her with the other hand but wasnt fast enough but matsu quickly grabbed the other hand and held him down with all her strength until kaede finished than after she finished inuyasha bit her

than inuyasha got dressed and matsu had already left to find koga she ran so fast that she didn't see the trap that was right in front of her she than fell in the trap but she grabbed a hold of a strong vine but who knows how long it would hold her weight.
HELP!
than just as the vine broke one of koga's tribe member's grabbed her hand and pulled her up
are you alright?
yes
why were you running
i was running to find koga i was just told that my best friend and sister had lost her mind and has shot inuyasha pinning him to a tree i found him and unpinned him but inuyasha just told me that she might have did the same to koga

than she and the fellow tribesman both ran to the tribe and up the mountain to the cave where koga laid sleeping with an arrow shot into his chest.
we dont know of anything else we can do
matsu than ran to his side
koga please forgive me for having to do this
than matsu pulled the aroow free of his chest but it did not wake him but he has breathing matsu than put her hand on his chest trying to stop the bleeding than she cleaned and dressed his wound.
koga please dont die i love you only i came sooner...only if i stayed rather than leaving. a few hours than past everyone had thought that their leader had died and they had went to bed matsu would not leave koga's side for one instant when he woke up he felt his love closer to him than ever before than he felt someone laying on him than he looked down. and noticed it was matsu and that she had pulled the aroow and dressed his wound, along with noticing she had been crying. he very carefully than got up and out of the bed and picked her up putting her in his bed than he laid next to her. during the night he awoke to feel her shivering than he leaned up and pulled the blanket over the both of them a few minutes after he put the blanket over her she woke up and saw that he was awake. and was no longer in bed she than very carefully walked out of the cave and outside she than started walking around than she heard koga crying

the next morning matsu got to the well koga had sent his best warrior to wait for her at the well along with inuyasha. once matsu go to the other side she ran inside than she instantly was grabbed by kagomae. kagomae had been crying.

than matsu ran after her when kagomae finally caught up to her she was crying at a stream
kagomae

matsu why does he have to be so cruel
i dont know
meanwhile koga was talking to inuyasha
inuyasha she made a mistake but atleast she came to her sences and came back
i know but i cant forgive her
why not
because she betrayed me
no she didn't you didn't tell her that you loved her so she didn't know how you felt and so she went on with her life.
than inuyasha thought for a moment
inuyasha just think of how she felt when you acted like that
inuyasha than thought about how he treated her than he ran after her
meanwhile at the stream matsu convinced her to go back and try to patch things up with inuyasha after she left. matsu was behind her than her and inuyasha made up a few years later matsu and koga were fighting more and more than one day koga went to far and matsu ran away never to come back than a few days later she heard that kikyo and koga were getting married she felt used, along with feeling betrayed. for weeks matsu lived out in the wilderness protecting her self. and lived alone but one night matsu heard someone behind her when she turned around she saw a a man with a moon design on his than noticed he had startled her
oh im sorry i didn't mean to scare you
you did not scare me
than sesshomaru smiled and smirked
oh i'll give you something to smirk about
than she pushed him into the stream when he fell she than laughed. sesshomaru than looked up at her with a angry look.
sorry but you did ask for it
yeah i did
here let me help you up
okay
sesshomaru than grabbed her hand but he pulled her on top of him than rolled on top of her holding her down.
you tricked me

sesshomaru than smiled again
i'll get you for than

than he got up and tried to help her up by holding his hand out
i dont need any help
okay
than she got up
a few moments went by and sesshomaru looked over at her and notice that she was standing over by a big tree shivering than he got up and walked over to her and took his cloak off
here
no im fine
no your not its cold
ok
than she took the cloak and as she was wrapping it around herself sesshomaru saw her bleeding from her side rather badly.

oh this its just from a fight with a demon earlier
im sorry
than all of a sudden she heard a demon coming
get down
than she grabbed her sword that she got from a fellow villager that she had protected from a couple of demons she than attacked the demon sesshomaru just watched her fight until the demon threw her straight through some trees than she fell to the ground sesshomaru had though that the demon had killed her . and so he than ran towards the monster than just than.
no dont
than matsu quickly got up even though she was in pain she lunged at the demon and hit the demon with a deadly blow. once it died and she tried to stand sesshomaru walked up to her but she passed out in his arms when he caught her.
jaken she's lost alot

nonsence she is a strong one
than he cleaned and bandaged her wounds after he held her close to him wrapping them in the cloak the next day

no she wont i think she is different she only attacks those that attack her
a few more day past than matsu woke up in sesshomaru's arms she than carefully got up once sesshomaru felt her move he than woke up quickly to see her get up

matsu whatever happened to your son a demon bird killed him and i have been trying to hunt him down and kill the bird demon that killed my son
the next morning sesshomaru left and matsu went to continue her search for her son's killer
meanwhile on the mountain of the demon wolf clan sesshomaru came to koga with news

once koga heard his lovers name he quickly ran to the opening of the cave

matsu
yes calera

no not at all calera i need to speak to koga

than matsu handed calera karin to put them in the nursary than a few moments later matsu walked outside to where koga still sat on the cliff but just before she went to speak to koga gita and hakaku walked up to her
matsu we are having our annual singing night by the fire and we were wondering if you would sing for us
of course
than she sang the song of her love for man that didnt love her
I thought you were the one
But once i love you
Did you ever love me
I see you there so high up where i can not reach
Please let me in
Let me help
Where is the man that i once knew
Where is the man that i loved so much
Is he even there anymore
Why did i stay for so very long
I thought you would change
But nothing has changed
What are you hiding from
while she sang koga still looked away not even wanting to look down at her than she walked away to the path towards the forest than hakaku ran after her
matsu where are you going
hakaku i just dont feel like the man i loved is even in koga i will come tomarrow morning to get karin and koga wont have to worry about us anymore...if he wants us in his life all he has to do is tell me himself otherwise no one will see me or karin tell him that.
i will
thank you hakaku your a dear friend i know that koga will listen to you
than she continued down the path to the forest and stayed there the rest of the night looking up at the mountain where she once called home where her lover lived. meanwhile back on the mountain in the tribe. hakaku walked back up the mountain koga was waiting in the cave's nursary wathing his adoptive daughter sleep in peace
koga
yes hakaku
did you hear matsu's song
yes
well matsu has left
what
yes she gave me a message to give to you
okay
she said she just doesn't feel like the man she loved is even in you any more, and will come tomarrow morning to get karin. and that you wont have to worry about them anymore...if you want them in your life all you have to do is tell her yourself otherwise no one will see her or karin
than he looked at karin
hakaku i dont think i can go through one more day with out her voice, her scent or even her touch please watch over karin im going to bring her back home
of course koga
meanwhile back in the forest matsu heard someone coming she than quickly grabbed her sword and climbed a tree to safety not knowing that it was actually koga. but instead of koga walking in the forest where she was he was in the tree that she was in once she got on a branch that he was in she could see everywhere. but just when she was backing up into the tree trunk koga was right behind her once she felt someone behind her she quickly jumped back but than she fell but koga quickly pulled her up. pressing her into him.
koga?
hello matsu
i take it that hakaku told you the message
yes
well
matsu i cant live one more day without you in my life
what about kikyo
what about her
i heard you married her seven years after i left
no i never remarried
koga what did you feel when i finally left
i thought my heart had shattered
than it began to rain
koga you told me to never come home
i know
but i only came home to bring the lost children home
i know
have you seen your adoptive daughter
yes
than matsu climbed down but as she was half way down the branch broke
crap not again!
than she let go and jumped but she did not expect koga to already be at the bottom to catch her
once she realized it was koga she than remembered that night that they fought than koga put her down matsu than walked near a tree where she had given birth to their son hyoga.
koga
yes matsu
do you even know how upset i was when you told me to leave home and to never come back that you never want to see me
yes and i am so sorry
no koga the man that i loved so much disappeared that day what ever happened to him
he is still here
no he is not if he was there than he would have known where to look for me when sesshomaru told me that you have been looking for me i did not believe it but i thought that maybe just maybe the man that i loved so many years ago finally came home but he didnt.
than she walked past him than koga grabbed her arm and when she turned to him he held her close to him and kissed her deeply than ever before than he released the kiss. matsu than looked at him and smiled.
i know you missed that
yeah i did
koga than smiled and than they held each ther close together and kissed eachother passionatly. that very night koga had came back to the man that matsu loved so much. the man she fell in love with. than the next morning they both got up early in the morning
matsu will you come back home
matsu than thought for a moment
koga i will only come back if the man i loved since the day we met stays
okay
than they both walked up to the the mountain to where karin was playing with the others
mommy
hello karin
than matsu started playing with her adoptive daughter
than koga and matsu were married and had many children .
