Forgetting Kikyo

for her help

Kagome's hair blowed in the wind as she smiled and looked at her long time friend, Inuyasha. Her smile widened as a thought came across her mind. Without a second thought she looked her half-demon friend right in his golden eyes and asked,

"Hey Inuyasha do you want to play tag?"

Inuyasha shrugged his clothed shoulders and replied, "Sure how do you play?" without much thought.

Kagome clapped her hands together, she had been walking around with Inuyasha for a while, for no real reason I might add, and she had gotten quite bored over the time.

"Okay i will start running and you have to tag me and then i have to chase you and tag you!" she explained as best as she could, hoping he would understand it to the full extent.

"Okay," Inuyasha said in understanding.

Kagome turned around and started to run away,
"Come after me Inuyasha!" she yelled out to him cheerfully.

"Okay!" he yelled after her, attempting to slow down his demoic running to run with normal human speed so it would be funner for Kagome.

(A COUPLE OF MINUTES LATER)

"I got you Kagome," Inuyasha said out of breath, it took some power to run slowly. Something he is not used to.

"Okay now I have to chase you!" Kagome said a bit out of breath too as she got into a running stance awaiting Inuyasha to run so she could catch the little rascal.

"Okay," Inuyasha said finally catching his breath.

he started to run in human spead again, "Come on Kagome, hurry up!" he yelled at her turning his head around to look at the girl.

He is so caught up at looking back that he trips over a large rock and hits his head in the ground pretty hard. Even for a half-demon.

Kagome, seeing this happen ran over right and tried to wake him up. But he wouldn't wake up, so with tears in her eyes she runs out of Inuyasha's forest and straight into Kaede's villadge. When she reached the hut that her companions were in at the moment she threw open the door and screamed, "Miroku, Sango! Inuyasha bumped his head and won't wake up please help!"

Miroku looked to Sango, "Come on Sango lets go help Kagome out with Inuyasha."

Sango nodded and they headed off into the location of the knocked out Inuyasha.
Miroku crouched down near Inuyasha's stomach, "Okay guys I'll pick up the middle, Sango you take his legs and Lady Kagome you take his head." Miroku said taking charge.
The two wemon got into their apropriate spots and put their hands there preparing to lift at any given second.
"Okay on three lift," Miroku commanded.
They nodded and all three chanted, "One...two...three......LIFT! UUUUUuuuuuuuggghhhh." they grunted as they all lifted the dog-eared man.
"Come on lets get back to camp before we drop him and he is even more injured," Sango said.
And slowly they made their way back to Kaede's hut.

(BACK AT CAMP)

"We need to get him into Kaede tent," Miroku grunted out. Sango and Kagome nodded and they placed him inside the hut. After looking around and seeing that Kaede wasn't in the hut she ran outside to look for her. Thank goodness Kaede was right outside the hut!

"Kaede come here, real quick please!"

"What is it ye child?" Kaede said walking up to Kagome.

"Inuyasha slipped and bonked his hit on a rock and won't wake up, you've got to help!" Kagome screamed freaking out, finally letting her inner pain of Inuyasha being hurt out.
"Okay bring him in," Kaede commanded.
"He's already in."
"Then lay him down."
"Did that." Kaede shook her head,

"Why didn't she tell me this already?" Kaede thought and walked inside her hut, followed by Kagome. Keade nelt down before Inuyasha's body, "Check his pulse and heart rate."
Kagome put her hand on his wrist and chest, "His pulse is fine and his heart seems to be beating normally." Kagome said exhaling she had been holding in her breath the entire time she checked his pulse and heart. She had been worried that neither would've been okay.

"We need a cold compress Kagome," Kaede said as she started a fire.
Kagome ran to her bag and pulled out a cold compess, "Okay here's one." she handed it to Kaede and Kaede placed it on his fore-head.

"Okay let him alone for now he needs rest." Kaede saw the worry in Kagome's eyes and put a hand on her shoulder, "He should be fine it's only a minor concussion."

Kagome nodded and sat down beside him.

(THREE HOURS LATER)

"Huh, where am I?" Inuyasha asked sitting up and looking around, his eyes landed on Kagome.
"Its okay Inuyasha I'm right here, its gonna be okay."

"Oh my Kagome come here and sit on my lap." Inuyasha told her kindly.

Kagome layed her hand on Inuyasha's chest, "Inuyasha lay down you have a big bump on your head." she laightly pushed him back down on the sheet, "Okay," Kagome said remembering that sometimes people can get amnesia, "Do you remember everyone?"

"Of course! I couldn't forget a single one of you guys, you're all important to me!"
Kagome nodded, time to test it, "Okay everyone come on in."

"She looked back down at Inuyasha, "Point everyone out alright?"

"Okay thats Sango that guy there is Miroku that's Shippo and that's Kirara and right next to me is my Kagome." he said smiling.

"Your Kagome?! What about Kikyo?" Kagome said poitning to Kikyo who just stood there with her soul collectors surrounding her lifeless, false form.

"Who is Kikyo?" Inuyasha asked with sooo much confusion.

"OH MY Gosh! He forgot who is Kikyo is!" (a/n: thank the heavens!) Kagome thought happily, "Wait this can't be possible!"

"Say that again!" Kagome said the words flowing out of her mouth like air that was ready to be realesed two years ago, and it was. She had always wanted him to forget Kikyo, she just couldn't find it in her heart to ask him of such things. But now he'd forgotten her on his own.

"That i don't know who is Kikyo is? Inuyasha asked seriously confused.
