Kagome sighs she was sick and tired of InuYasha running off to see Kikyo. Sango sat the anger radiating of her as she polished her boomerang. 'Damn, InuYasha, Kagome is obviously hurt by this.'

Miroku, trying to make everyone smile, decides he wants to grope Sango. She slaps him, "HENTAI!"

Kagome shakes her head, trying to hide her smile. 'I don't know why that always makes me smile.'

Shippo runs into Kagome's arms happy to see his foster mom smiling. Kagome gives him a squeeze. He snuggles in and closes his eyes. Kagome lets him rest, sighing, 'And InuYasha complains when I go home, he spends more time chasing Kikyo then I do staying at home.'

InuYasha comes back smelling of clay and ashes. Kagome stands up, and heads to the well, leaving a sleeping Shippo in Sango's arms. InuYasha follows her, "Kagome, where are you going?"

Kagome turns, and whispers the word of submission. InuYasha slams into the ground much harder then usual. 'Ah man, she's mad at me.'

Kagome leaps into the well and into the present

-------------------------------------------YYH's group------------------------------------------------

Koenma sighs, as the door was kicked open and in comes a raging Yusuke. "TODDLER, YOU BETTER HAVE A REASON FOR INTERRUPTING ME ON MY DAY OFF!"

Koenma sucks on his pacifier, looking unfazed, "Well, I have a new mission for you; Botan was out of reach so I wanted you to come and get your mission tape."

Yusuke sighs and receives the tape. He walks out with Puu attached to the bag where he stuck the tape. Arriving at Kuwabara's place, "Yo, Kuwabara, I need the VCR so watch your soaps elsewhere."

Kuwabara sighs, and turns of the TV, "So what did Koenma want?"

"New mission."

He sticks the tape in the VCR and pushes play. A girl with dark raven hair appeared on the screen. They were watching enthralled, not noticing Kurama and Hiei enter. They sat in the back watching the tape. "This is Kagome Higurashi, 16 years old. She seems to be wrapped up in mysterious events that affect the past and present. She seems to be looking for the Shikon Jewel…"

Kurama breathed in a small gasp, 'the Shikon Jewel!?'

Hiei was also having the same thought. "…, she also seems to be a powerful miko. My information only goes back 500 years but it seems she shows up then as well, as the reincarnation of the miko, Kikyo." A picture of Kikyo appears. Yusuke was cleaning the earwax out of his ear not listening. "The mission is this find out what she knows, and to keep her out of harm's way."

The tape turns blue and then shuts off. Yusuke scowls, "I had to cut my arcade time short for that, albeit she's a looker, but seriously, a protection and information mission, how lame is that!"

Kurama stands up slowly and Hiei, "Hns"

The two demons leave, after mentioning that they were going to the temple and see if she's there. Hiei jumped into the nearby sakura tree, while Suichi went to the door and knocked. Kagome's grandfather opens the door, "Kagome is sick today; poor girl, she's suffering from hemophilia."

Suichi's eyes narrow, he wasn't going to buy it, "Oh, can you tell me when would be a better time to visit her."

Kagome, meanwhile, noting the person at the door, goes around through the back entrance. Hiei was watching her interested, she came from the shrine and he was sure that no one was there earlier. Kagome looks up to the tree where he was hiding and says "SIT!!! Oh, no one there."

Hiei sweat drops, and then relays what he found to Kurama who was still at the door, 'I spotted the girl, she's sneaking in the back; she came from the shrine.'

Kurama gives a miniscule nod and departs from the temple. The elderly man closes the door and the demon pair head towards the shrine and open the door. Only to see a well, Kurama looks to Hiei, who gets the hint to leap into the well. He just landed on solid ground, "Fox, nothing happened."

Kurama nods, "That's what I thought. It appears that only Kagome can pass through the well."

Hiei leaps out and they head towards Yusuke's school.

--------------------------------In the Higurashi's residence -------------------------------

Kagome's mother looks up from washing the dishes, "Kagome, it's good to see you"

She gave the child, who she loved like a daughter, a hug and checking to see the bracelet was still on.

--Much like Kyo's mother, from Fruit's Basket, checks for the bracelet, or so I am told--

Kagome shook her head she never knew why her mother was always afraid she would lose the bracelet. Kagome pulls away from the grasp and decides that now was a good time to ask why. "Mom, why do you check for the bracelet? It's not like I can take it off."

Kagome's mom looks around, and ushers her into the basement where she locks the door. Tears in her eyes she begins to explain, "Honey, I love you like a daughter. But, I'm not your real mother. I found you as a baby. Your real mother, she was beautiful, a young kitsune, with beautiful black hair and midnight-blue eyes, gave me to you before she died, a demon it appears was after you. Gramps managed to destroy it and he made this bracelet to conceal your demon self from man and demon alike. It can only be removed by me, your grandfather and Sota."

Kagome pulls back a bit horrified at what she heard. Her whole way of thinking and living was shattered right from underneath her. Kagome's mom sighs and pulls her in a tight embrace, "Oh, honey, its okay."

Kagome looks to her mother, "Mom, can you take the bracelet off, I… I would like to see how I really look like."

Her mother nods and takes it off. Kagome shudders and heads towards the mirror in the basement bathroom. She had the midnight-blue eyes of her mother, and her hair was a grey color as were her ears, "My father must had been a silver fox."

She turns and looks at her tail it was the same dark grey as her hair but for a white-dipped end. Kagome's mother comes in holding the bracelet. Kagome looks up as her mother handed her the beads

--I read Kagome's mom's name is Kun-Loon, k.--

"Kagome, now since I had removed them you will be able to do the same from now on."

Kagome nods and gives Kun-Loon, her mother, a hug, "Thanks for letting me know the truth, mom."

Kagome puts the bracelet on thinking, 'So that's why I felt a certain affinity with Shippo.'

------------------------------------At Yusuke's school------------------------------------------------

Hiei and Kurama had just gone over what they discovered. Yusuke was bored, wondering when the interesting stuff would happen. They all suddenly stop talking as they saw the target walk by the front of the school sighing, head down. Kagome stops she could sense demons and she looks into the play yard and stares at Kurama and Hiei. Time froze for a moment and then she turns her light blue eyes at Kuwabara, he had an aura of a spiritual person. Then she focused her eyes on Yusuke, he was obviously the fighter in the group; he reminded her of InuYasha. She tightened her backpack against her back and began to walk to Hojo's house to return the notes he lent her. She pauses and turns behind her, she could sense a Shikon jewel, and it was buried near the guys. She heads towards them and they were all watching her as she knelt beside the stoop, they were sitting on and started to dig slightly, she smiled as she saw the familiar glow of the jewel shard and started to reach for it when a hand grabbed her arm. She kicks and grabs the shard, purifying it. She turns it was the guy that reminded her of InuYasha, "What are you doing?!"

He was rubbing his abdomen, scowling. She returns the scowl, "I just had to pick up something I lost here. Not that it is any of your business."

Suichi pulls Yusuke away from Kagome, "I apologize, my name is Suichi, this here is Yusuke and the two on the stairs are Hiei and Kazuma."

She nods her eyes resting wearingly on Hiei, 'Suichi seems friendly but that Hiei seems to emit such a cold aura.'

Hiei, "Hns"

Kagome's eyes widen, 'That demon just read my thoughts.'

Suichi puts a hand on Hiei's shoulder, "Don't frighten the girl, Hiei."

Kagome shakes her head, "My name is Kagome."

They nod, they all knew that but they weren't going to let her know. She points up to the sky, "Is that woman flying on an oar?!"

They all look at Botan; she seemed flustered that she was discovered. Kagome steps away from everyone, "What are you all?! I know those two are demons."

She points to Suichi and Hiei, then she started to get upset, "You better not be after the Shikon jewel!"

Botan lands, "Uh… well, the thing is… I'm just a figment of your imagination."

Kagome scoffs, "The last thing I imagined anything was when I was cur…"

She cuts herself off, 'No need for them to know more then necessary.'

She backs away and leaves the park area. She needed to go back home to tell her family to be on the lookout for these people. They encircle her, "Hold on a minute. Damn it, we aren't going to hurt you."

She turns and glares at Yusuke who spoke. Kazuma steps closer, "What Urameshi is trying to say is we wish to help you."

Her eyes narrow into slits, "I don't need your kind of help."

She caught a blur and she quickly moved to the side, a sword was posed inches from where she was standing. Hiei came into focus, "She may not need our help after all."

Every one looked a bit surprised she was able to dodge Hiei's attack. Kagome growls, 'What a time to be without my bow and arrows.'

Yusuke claps, "That was impressive, Kikyo."

Kagome turns her icy stare at Yusuke, the air was visibly colder. "I am not Kikyo, I am KA-GO-ME!!!"

Each word accentuated by a visible puff of cold air, the group looks at Hiei, who shakes his head; he wasn't responsible for the coldness. They all look to Kagome; a bit amazed. She runs towards the temple her head down, 'So I'm an ice kitsune.'

Hiei heard this and looks mildly interested, "This mission has gotten more interesting."
