My Choice
Should it not be the happiest day of her life? Today, she would go with John to New York, starting a new life and finally forget about the past. But first, there was one thing left to do: for the last time, Kagome went to the shrine with the bone eaters well, to say good-bye to her friends from the past. Ten years ago the gate through time had suddenly closed and she could not return to her dear friends...to her beloved hanyou. Up to now, she haven't found a reason, why the well was closed. Nothing special has happened, she just wanted to go home, get new first aid kits and some food and come back again. But the connection to the feudal era was unexpectedly broken, she couldn't return to Inuyasha.
Perhaps it was better this way.
When she reached the well, Kagome looked down into the darkness and said: "Farewell Shippo! Take care of yourself! Miroku, stay well mannered, do you hear me? Sango, I hope you will find your brother and save him. I will never forget one of you!" None of them would hear her, of course, but she needed that. But what to say to Inuyasha? She stared into the well, that was dark and empty like her mind. Kagome opened her mouth, but no sound came from it. She couldn't. It was impossible to say goodbye to him, even after this long time without him. She shook her head. That's ridiculous! I haven't seen him for ten years and I survived it. I've moved on and I will live here and now and not in the past. "Farewell Inuyasha", she said quietly. Heavy hearted she wanted to leave the shrine.
"What the hell do you mean with 'farewell'? Are you crazy? Come back, we have a lot of things to do! And don't you dare tell me something about stupid tests! I haven't forgot about your school holidays!" Kagome stood dead in her track. This voice...how could this be? Slowly she turned her head and really...there was Inuyasha, who jumped out of the well and sparkled angry at her. "Inuyasha? How is that possible?" Was that a dream? A big bad joke? "Stupid question, through the well, of course! Come on now, Shippo is driving me crazy with his whining!" His sudden appearance made her heart jump with joy, but another part of her just wanted to run away. Like he used to be, Inuyasha grabbed her hand, dragging her back to the past. Angry, she freed her hand from his tight grip. "Let me go! And how dare you shout at me like that! After ten
years you just popped out of nowhere and act like I was gone yesterday!" Some things never changed, but this kind of rudeness she had never expected from him.
Kagome closed her eyes to calm down a little. She was no longer a sixteen- year-old screaming girl, but a grown-up, young woman. "Excuse me, someone is waiting for me outside. Good-bye, Inuyasha." Deeply hurt she climbed up the wooden ladder, but Inuyasha was faster and jumped in front of the door. He was about to go on with his scolding, when he something began to realize. They stared at each other for a few seconds, till they finally knew, what has happened. "Damn, what's the matter? Where is your school uniform? Why did you get...older?"

hello, I'm new here and this is my first english FF. So if there are horrible grammar mistakes, sorry. The story is completed, and if you wonder, why my chapters story are so short: I have to translate them first, and that will take some time (it's not that easy, as I thought). Actually there are no chapters, because the story is not that long.
I hope you enjoy it!
