Discovery
Kagome silently watched as Inuyasha left, again. He thought she was fast asleep like always, and like always, he left to go see her. She sat up slowly to make sure that Shippo stayed asleep. She carefully laid her adopted son back on the sleeping bag they shared as she stood and started packing her things.
She was leaving tonight. She was so tired of Inuyasha pushing her around and telling her what to do and always leaving her at night. She had fallen out of love with him about a year ago. She was now 17, meaning she had traveled back and forth to help Inuyasha for almost three years now. He showed her no respect like always but he did have his moments. She simply felt betrayed.
She left the note for the small group. She explained she felt she needed to grow up on her own for a while and not to worry. She told Sango of how she thought of her as a sister and Miroku like the crazy pervy older brother she never had. She told Shippo not to cry because she would see him a again some day. She did say anything to Inuyasha except good bye and good luck. She also said not to try and find her...please.
She threw he big yellow bag on her back and left. She didn't exactly know where she was going to go yet, just that she was goin.
'I hope you find love Inuyasha. Miroku, ask Sango to marry you already!' Kagome thought as she walked away into the forest. She spared one last glance behind her. She gave her small past family one last glance and memories flooded her mind at the word family from the last time she crossed the well. Tears sprung to her eyes and she closed the tightly and stopped walking. No, she promised herself she wouldn't cry anymore. She slowly fought back the memories and the tears and opened her eyes and started walking again.
She faced the forest and refused to look back again.
