DISSCLAMER: I don't own Inuyasha. But then again I think you know that.
This is my first Fan Fic. I hope I do not disappoint you. Please review all feed back is welcome. I am hoping my writing will improve as time goes on so all criticisms and encouragement is welcome. Some of the characters may be OOC but I am doing my best with the information I have and the story line I have in mind.
This is (as far as I know) going to be Sess/Kag fic. Please don't complain about it. If it is not what you enjoy reading by all means don't . If you do I hope you are well entertained.
On with the story……
Heart of Glass / Heart of Ice
******************************************************************************************
Have you ever held a piece of ice? Slowly watching as the once cloudy center begins to clear from the heat of your touch? At the same time have you ever noticed how no matter the heat placed to a piece of glass the center remains clear and unchanged? The one thing these both have in common is how fragile thy both are. As stubborn as they want to be one false move…. One mishandling slip and the pieces are left shattered. To be swept aside or remolded into a vision of their former glory………

Kagome woke with a smile on her face. It was good to be home, at least for a few days. She let herself sink farther in to the soft folds of her bed.
"It feels so nice to be in a real bed. I forgot how uncomfortable the ground can be in comparison."
Just then her alarm stated shrieking for her to get her lazy butt out of bed. With a start she jumped over to turn it off. She smiled to herself as she smelled the beginnings of her moms omelets reach her from the kitchen. Kagome raised her arms over her head in her ritual morning stretch and leaned over to touch her toes . She was so happy when she for once wasn't stiff and cold. "If there is one thing I miss about home it is the feel of waking up in my own bed….." she sighed softly.
Kagome opened up her door, and yelled down to her mother, "do I have time to take a shower before brekfast is ready?"
"Of course hunny. Take your time." Her mother yelled back. Kagome could hear the smile in her voice.
"Thanks mom…..I love you" she yelled as she quickly gathered her things for the shower.

(Meanwhile)
"Urahhh!! Where could the bitch be? I told her she was not to go home without my permission!" Inuyasha yelled as he looked accusingly at the well. Sure enough this was where her distinctive smell disappeared. " Why can she never listen to me. Now we are going to have to wait for who knows how long for her to decide to come back." Inuyasha looked around at his companions in disgust, then promptly stormed off towards the tree line.
"Why doesn't he just go and get her if he is that upset? " Shippo asked Miroku.
"Why not indeed. I think he may be worried about her." Miroku stated, as his hand slowly made its way to Sango's……THWAP!!!!
"What was that for?" the monk asked with dismay.
" You know perfectly well what that was for you pervert. I advise you to keep your hands to yourself in the near future. I would hate to help you by chopping you r curse off you body." Sango stood up and went back into Kaede's hut her raven hair whipping around her body in agitation.
"I guess it is just me and you kid," Miroku said to the kitsune. " Hey where did you go?" Looking around himself he realized that everyone, even Shippo had abandoned him at the well. "I am not going to be doing much good sitting here talking to myself." Miroku made sure that his prayer beads were firmly in place when he stood . Something felt a little off but he couldn't quite place it. Figuring it was worry over what was becoming of the little group he shrugged his shoulders and walked in he direction he had seen Inuyasha storm off to.

He stood watching the pathetic creatures argue and mill about till the last one , a priest from the looks of his shabby wardrobe, wandered out of sight. Sesshomaru had been watching the well for the last 12 hours, making sure to stay downwind of his pathetic half brother, waiting to see when the human would show her face. At first he thought she was hiding from her party, but from the conversation he just heard now he wasn't so sure. Apparently her home was beyond the well. He had put such illusionary measures on his castle. Yet, he was curious as to how this mere human would have the power to do so.
Sesshomaru went completely still focusing all of his senses to make sure that there was none else about . He wanted to bid his time before facing his brother yet again for the Tetsusaiga. He Walked over to the well and peered down into its depths. Looking for any trace of the miko. He found none other than the lingering smell she left behind. 'Yes,' he thought ' she defiantly has strong magic at her disposal if she could confuse even my scenes'.
