Selene

Kagome Higurashi sat on small hill that over looked most of the forest, crying. It was just another day as princess.

Horrible!

Her mother and father are to busy being King and Queen to notice her cousin, Kikyo, picking on her.

But it was more then that. Kikyo found anything she did, wether it be her missing her target in archery to tripping to even the clothes she wears, and critized her to the point to where she just wanted to scream.

Things weren't always this bad, Kagome used to have her older brother, Sota, to stop Kikyo, but now that Sota was married and had a child on the way, he didn't notice Kagome anymore. That and the fact the fact that he lives 300 miles away. So it was just Kagome, without a friend in the world.

Sure, the staff often talked to her, but it wasn't the same.

Kagome looked up at the full moon and all the stars around it.

"I wish i had a friend."

She kept looking up at the sky, as if waiting for someone to say 'if it's a friend you want it's a friend you'll get' but of course, nothing happened.

She got up and dusted herself off. With one last look at the sky, she walked off, back to the castle before someone noticed she was gone, not that any one would.

S.C.

Selene, the moon goddess, looked down at Kagome, a frown set on her face.

That Kagome girl was here every night, and she always wished for the same thing.

She sighed, as the wind blew passed her, making her silver dress blow with the breeze.

All Kagome wanted was a friend, and Selene could do just that.

Making up her mind, Selene snapped her fingers and disappeared. Seconds later she reappeared in the hall of the palace, where light never failed, on Mt. Olympus.

She bowed to the tweleve Olympian gods that sat in their golden thrones.

She walked walked over to her empty throne next to Demeter, goddess of harvest.

"What brings you here, Selene?" Hades asked from his throne. "Usually your out roaming the night sky."

"I have come to talk Aphrodite."

At the mention of her name, the goddess of love, looked over at Selene. "Yes?"

"Aphrodite, I want you to help Kagome find her true love. Can you tell me who it is?"

Aphrodite snapped her fingers and disappered, probably to her room in the palace, only to return minutes later with a smile on her face.

"You'll never guess who." She said.

Selene sat up and looked over at Aphrodite, curiosity getting the best of her. Aphrodite's mischevious smile grew as she saw Selene's reaction.

"It's someone you know." She tried, but it didn't really help.

Being a goddess she knew practically everyone.

"He's a hanyou" That started to narrow it down.

"And his name is-"

"Hey, have any of you seen Miroku? I swear when i find him..." Inuyasha asked barging into the hall.

A chorus of No's were heard. Mumbling obscentaries under his breath, Inuyasha walked out of the hall to look for his brother else where.

When Selene turned and looked back at Aphrodite, Aphrodite had a big grin on her face. Selene looked back over her shoulder where Inuyasha had just been, trying to figure out why Aphrodite was grinning. Then suddenly it hit her. She whipped her head back around, her brown hair falling over her face.

"No way."

Aphrodite nodded her head the grin still placed on her face.

"Are you serious?" Aphrodite once again nodded her head. Selene finally closed her open mouth. She shook her and put her plan into action.

She closed her eyes and said the spell.

S.C.

Inuyasha opened the door to the kitchen saying, "Ha. I finally found you Miroku. I swear i'm going to-" he stopped when he noticed that he was no longer in the light, warm, kitchen, but was in a dark, cold, forest.

"What the-" he looked down to see a girl rubbing her head. "Where did you come from?"

The girl looked up as his voice cut through the silence of the air. She stared at him with ide eyes before screaming.

"Shut Up" Inuyasha yelled clamping his hands over his ears. She stopped yelling, afraid what would happen if she didn't.

He slowly took his hands of his ears and peered down at the girl.

"What's your name?"

She looked hestaint to answer but when she finally did she anwsered, "Ayumi"

"Well Ayumi, you're really annoying. Now where the hell are we?"

"We're in the forest." she said. 'This guy is really dense' she thought.

Inuyasha growled at her answer. "I know that Sherlock" he said.

"Oh, then you probably want to know what forest we're in."

"Yeah"

"The forest doesn't have a name. But it's on Higurashi ground."

"That's not to far" he mumbled under his breath.

"Not to far from where?"

"Was I talking to you?" he snapped.

"Well I should hope so because if not you're talking to yourself."

All he did was glare at her, not having a comback.

"What's your name?"

"..."

"I asked-"

"Inuyasha" he interupted her.

"Well, inuyasha i'm very tired so i'm going to go now" she said walking past him.

But the she stopped after she remembered that she was lost.

"Are you coming to the castle?"

Inuyasha thought about it before shrugging.

"Why not."

A relived smile came on her face. Sure, she was still lost but maybe he knew the way.

"Okay, come on"

They walked side-by-side for a while but stopped as they came to a fork in the path.

"Which way?" he asked.

So much for thinking he knew the way' Ayumi thought about it for a moment before pointing left.

They went down that path in silence and came to a stop as they ended up back at the hill that she had started out on.

"Damn it" she cussed under her breath, but inuyasha's ears heard her.

"What?" She looked at him, startled saying

"Nothing" a little to quickly for his liking.

They headed back down the path and came back to the fork in the road, but instead of going left like last time, they went right. They kept walking till there was another fork, and the went right. There was another fork in the road. They went right again and kept walking until they saw an opening. They kept walking but stopped as they ended up on the same hill top as before.

"Crap" she said under her breath.

"Weren't we already here" Inuyasha asked, his confusion evdient in his voice.

She nodded her head and avoided his gaze.

"So we're lost?"

She once again nodded her head.

"Great, just great" he said pacing back and forth between the opening of the forest and the end of the hill. "Anything else you've kept from me?"

She thought for a minute before answering, "My name's Kagome, not Ayumi."

Inuyasha pinched the bridge of his nose to stay calm so he could think.

"I'm usually not out this late." Kagome said.

"Ok, we'll just keep walking. Maybe if we went left then right...yeah that should get us out."

"Or deeper in"

He glared at Kagome, shutting her up.

"We don't any of your negatitivy" he said starting back for the other path.

"I'm just saying"

They kept walking in silence until they finally made it out of the forest. The sight of the big black caslte was enough to make Kagome forget about her horrible day.

"Finally" Inuyasha complained.

"Come on" she said, grabbing his hand and dragging him to the kitchen door.

"You can sleep in a guest room. I'll show you where" she said.

They walked silently through the kitchen and the corridor. They walked up the stair, as quietly as possible. Once the were on the third floor she pointed to a door not to far from the stairs.

"If you need me I'll be in that room" she said indacting the room a few doors down and on the opposite wall. He nodded and went inside.

She walked into her room and jumped on to her queen size bed.

This is excatly what she wanted, a nice comfortable bed.

She closed her eyes and soon fell to sleep, forgetting the day, and not caring about tomorrow.
