I do not own Inuyasha

10 Years later

Inuyasha goes MIA during a war between humans and demons. Before he left, he promised Kagome that he would come back home safe to her. Near the end of the war, he disappeared and no one could find him, not even his best friend or his brother who always showed no emotion and never caring what happen to him. The war had ended and after 2 years of searching for him, of any sign that he might somehow still be alive, everyone gave up hope. Everyone except for Kagome, she believed that deep down, that he was still out there. Somewhere. After 5 long years of Koga asking her out and following here pretty much every where she went and always confessing his love for her, she gave in and agreed to marry him. But she never loved him.

5 years later

"Where's my sandwich woman? I asked for it 5 minutes ago! " yelled Koga who sat in his favourite chair with his feet propped up on the coffee table as he reclined back in it with a beer in his hand while he watched TV.

"Coming dear!" called Kagome as she hurried out of the kitchen with a plate with the sandwich on top. Kagome was as small as ever, her once radiant hair was now worn and messy kept

back by a ponytail. Her hands dried, tired, sore and cracked from always working so hard, her face was pale with no colour in it besides the heat that was in her cheeks from running around so much

from trying to please Koga and keep him happy.

" Here you go" she said sweetly as she could handing him the plate which he took hungrily as he took a bite out of the sandwich he spit half of it out all
over the floor.

"What is this? Turkey? I said I wanted ham! Ham! Ham you damn good for nothing wrench!" Yelled Koga as he dropped the plate on the ground and slapping her across the face. A moment of silence passed as Kagome feel to her knees slowly and quietly holding her cheek and began to cry softly as Koga then also slowly came down in front of her hugging her close to him
comforting her

"Shhhh there, there now, I'm so sorry baby…I didn't mean to hit you, I'm just so stressed out from work. I'll never strike you again my love." He said softly in her ear hugging her tightly

stroking her hair. She could only smile and nod forgiving him. "

I'll never do it again", ya right as if he hasn't said that before and still done it again, thought Kagome to herself as she slowly began to pick up
pieces of the plate and the sandwich off the floor. As she started walking away she couldn't help but think about him. 10 years and still nothing had shown up about his were abouts, what had happen, or even his uniform. And even yet, after everyone had tried to convince her that he was really gone and she needed to move on with her like, she still couldn't, not after she had promised him.
