Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha. If I did Ban-Chan would have lived!

Authors Notes: This is my first Inuyasha fanfic. This is my 3rd fanfic in total so…. 3rds the charm!

Chapter One: Having Fun With Enemies?

Kagome looked up at the dark sky. Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, Kilala, and even Shippo had left her behind!

She walked silently to the Bone Eater's Well…the very well that could send her back to her time. When she got there though, she saw a frightening sight. She could clearly see the form of her enemy, Bankotsu, resting against the wooden well.

She froze when he opened his shocking blue eyes and stared at her.

"You're Inutrasha's wench, right?" He asked in his cocky, youthful voice. "What are you doing here without him?"

"It is none of your business…and I am NOT InuYASHA's wench. I belong to nobody!" She snapped before she realized who he was again.

"Whoa…" He gave her a shocked look. "You sure do got an attitude, don'cha?

Kagome "eeped" before she said, "Yes…and so you know…Inuyasha isn't anywhere near here. He and the others left me behind."

He got up and walked over to her. She noticed he didn't have his halberd, Banryuu, with him. "Left you behind?" He questioned. "That's not very team-ish of them. I would never leave any of my comrades behind…we are like brothers!" Once he walked over to her, he put a hand on her shoulder. "Are you ok?" His voice was kind. "I understand how you must feel…I was abandoned when I was young, when I was alive."

Kagome looked at him, confused. She stared at his tanned face before she said, "Why are you being so nice? Aren't I your enemy?"

He smiled kindly down at her. "I am not just some cold-blooded murderer…well…ok, I AM a murderer, but I can be nice." He smirked. "And…you are not my enemy. The mutt is." Shrugging once, he smiled again. "Do you like mutt at all?"

Kagome thought hard. "Well…no. But I broke the jewel. I have to help him fix it before Naraku." Somehow she just knew she could trust him.

Bankotsu thought for second before he replied. "Well…why don't you want Naraku to get it?"

"Well…he's evil…he will just use it to become a full-demon."

"And what is mutt gonna use it for?" He prodded.

"To…become a full-demon…" She got what he was hinting. Why help Inuyasha do something and not let Naraku do the same thing. "I never actually thought about it…Thank you, Bankotsu!" Kagome smiled. I will still stay with them but I will keep what you said in mind."

"You're welcome…"He paused. "Uh…. eh Heh Heh," He started to laugh nervously. "What is your name?"

Kagome laughed. She could feel so normal around him. "It is Kagome…Kagome Higurashi."

Bankotsu smiled. He started to walk over to the well so he could get Banryuu. "Well…nice talkin' to ya, Kagome!"

Kagome watched him until he disappeared into the dense forest.

Well…. that is it for now! READ AND REVIEW! PLEASE!
