Hey guys what's up. Me, I, have created another fan fic! Yay! I'm so happy! Oh and thanks for being so understanding. This is most likely Sesshoumaru Kagome but I'm not sure. It may change but of course we have to begin with the conflict of Kagome and Inuyasha's feelings.


"Okay, here we go. I can do this." A young female with long black hair and blue eyes spoke allowed. She encouraged her self to the best of her ability, causing the blue depths to swim with grey. The test in front of her that she just put her name on, Kagome Higurashi, would decide whether or not she passes high school. The miko whom traveled through time gulped as she reached her first question.

Though it was simple and easy she that somewhere in this packet was a sneaky little devil that she wouldn't be able to answer and so she would lose many points causing her to retake her last year of high school. And so Inuyasha would yell at her for another year, and so she would sit him crazily for another year and so-well you get her basic thinking now right?

The poor girl was beginning to hyper ventilate at the constant fear running through her mind. Her eyes bulged and so she almost looked psychotic as she broke her pencil and hardly noticed. She felt a hand touch her shoulder. "Higurashi-san, I recommend you remain after school and do the test then. I believe your illness is catching up to you." Kagome sweat dropped and yet nodded in consent. "Would you like to maybe stand out side in the fresh air?"

"Oh that's a wonderful idea." The female plastered on her fake smile and disappeared from the room. The miko looked about her, viewing her entire surroundings yet not truly seeing them. Her thought's remained on the hanyou that caused her such grief, pain, anger and yet such happiness and even admiration. An admiration that one day blossomed into love. A small smile tugged her lips. Oh yes, she deeply loved him with such great passion that no other could match, she knew he loved her, yet may love Kikyo more.

The priestess that Kagome had been reincarnated from died at least two years ago and this time, unlike the last that Naraku attacked her, Kagome could not save her and try as she might not revive the miko either. Inuyasha was so distraught when her everlasting death finally came. The boy brushed it off even when any one seen him extremely upset, yet when Kagome spoke he would look away and say nothing. One day, near the ending of his suffering, he smiled at Kagome. But by the look in his amber depths, the miko knew in her heart, that he saw Kikyo. When Inuyasha tried to kiss her for the second time, again he had seen the dead priestess in her, not her. If he held her with in his arms, it was truly Kikyo that he was holding.

So in short, maybe it wasn't meant to be what she desired it to be between them which made perfect sense, right? Though she wanted this fiery passion to exist in him for her to she knew it would be nothing more than a high school girl's dream. Yet that was just a maybe, so maybes can turn into a yes. Yet then again a no is possible as well. She prayed and hoped it was a yes.

But hoping never got her Inuyasha before. Then again there was that time that he held her, but then he pushed her down the well. The miko grit her teeth in immense agitation. Why must she hope so often? Was it because she was human? And why must she love something she couldn't grasp, like wind? You can't capture wind and that's just what Inuyasha was, he was wind, and forests, and mountains and the sun. You can't take the sun either and maybe you can chip a mountain but you can't get the whole thing in once swoop. Neither can you lift an entire forest from the earth. It was like chasing the unicorn which was a fantasy, or was it real? At this point Kagome just didn't know any longer. Yet she desired, she wished that she could keep him forever, although she knew that was impossible. It was never to happen, ever. There was no sweet fairytale in this place, not for her.

She wanted the never ending happiness that those princesses receive in the children's books. Kagome smiled. "I think every one does." At that thought, on that moment Kagome walked through the school's doors and entered the outside. A ray of sun light cast down over her and to you and I the world seemed beautiful. Yet for Kagome it was hideous. This place was nothing compared to the feudal age which she continuously traveled to. There were no rolling hills, giant mountains, large vast forests of crystal clear streams which were not polluted by a single thing. But we didn't and don't have that luxury.

A sigh escaped her lips, which were slightly dry since she hadn't been drinking much for the past few days. Kagome's home's plumbing wasn't working and so she went back and forth to the feudal era to get water but would drink much so her family could have it. Luckily none had noticed. "Here, drink this." The miko jumped, but didn't scream as suddenly she wasn't on the side walk, she was on the roof. Inuyasha stood beside her, holding a bamboo bottle filled with water. A smile came to her lips. "He noticed though."

She took it gratefully and began drinking, and rather quickly. "Hey slow down, you'll get sick that way." The hanyou pulled it from her cracked lips for a moment. Yet the plea in her eyes caused him to give the blasted bottle right back. Kagome gulped the wonderful, beautiful liquid down her throat and when none was left she sighed. Inuyasha smirked as he pulled the other from his haori. "I have-Kagome!" The miko began to fall backward.

"Didn't I tell ya not to drink it so fast?" Inuyasha held her wit one arm and the bottle with the other. She then took it.

"Yes you did." As she was about to drink from it, the drink was taken from her.

"Hold on a second." He sat her down and pulled a small box from his haori. "Sango made this for you, I already ate mine." The miko smiled softly. "Now, drink the water slowly with the meal and you'll be okay."

"I will." As Kagome said this she took each from him and began to drink and eat. Her eyes bulged when she began munching. "Oh Kami this is so good." Inuyasha grinned at her oddness over the food. "Inuyasha don't you want any?"

"No, I'm fine." His stomach growled and so she giggled. He had matured so much in the past years and it was an amazing transformation.

"No you're not. Have some please. I couldn't eat it all by my self, I'm too small." Kagome gave him round puppy eyes and so he couldn't resist.

"Damn it, I hate you." Inuyasha took a smaller, cooked fish and began to eat it. Kagome rolled her eyes and also ate a fish. Every once in a while she would drink a sip of water and with out her knowledge, Inuyasha viewed all actions from the corner of his eye. "She's different from Kikyo and that's what I like about her, I think. She's freer with me and I'm grateful but I'll never say it."

"Inuyasha, are you thirsty?" The female turned to him, which caused a blush to rise over his features. This made the girl redden as well.

"Um no, you need it."

"I didn't ask what I needed Inuyasha."

"I know that damn it its just-just…"

"Just what Inuyasha?"

"I don't want to drink too much is all."

"Why does that matter?"

"Cause you need it and I don't want to take anything from you, only give." The boy turned immediately and didn't notice the soft smile that crossed her features. But he did see the crimson over her cheeks.

"Inuyasha I-crap!" The bell rang and so Kagome stood up. She left the water and the rest of her lunch sitting upon the ground. Yet before she left she kissed his cheek. The male gasped. "I know you made the lunch, thank you." With that she disappeared which meant that the hanyou was now alone with his thoughts and there weren't many besides "She kissed me".

A blush stained the miko's face as she jogged down the hall in slight glee. "I finally gave him a kiss." At these words realization fully struck her and so her heart soared with the eagles for a moment in this child's life. She entered the class room wit ha radiant smile. Her eyes found her teacher who smiled in return. "Are you ready for your test Ms. Higurashi?"

"Yes, I think I am." The male handed the paper to Kagome and as she sat down, began writing and thinking stressing thought's did not appear at this time. Instead all seemed so easy, in reach of her nimble fingers. A sigh of happiness escaped with out her notice and even as she neared, worked, the most difficult problem anger and frustration remained far from her mind. Only sweet bliss stood there by her side and, not to her knowledge, a silver haired hanyou near the window.

Inuyasha felt giddy this day and so allowed a rare smile that only the dead priestess received. The wind blew in a furious manner causing Inuyasha to look away from Kagome. It tore against him angrily and the scent reminded him of Kikyo. A Jasmine standing up toward the rainy weather, which was Kikyo. The male looked to Kagome and then disappeared, not desiring to endanger her.

Kikyo's soul had never returned to Kagome's body once she died. This had always made the half breed nervous because though the priestess herself was no longer among the world it didn't mean her soul wasn't. This could serve to become a bad turn for him and Kagome, for if his lost love ever saw the two together she would manage to make their lives Hell. Inuyasha, never truly caring to much for himself after receiving friends, didn't give a thought about his well being. It was only Kagome's who he wanted to insure would be well.

The man knew that he was feeling the strong emotion of love toward Kagome yet he also knew he was still in love with Kikyo. This would hurt the young miko if she knew that he still cared so deeply for Kikyo, but what could he do? He honestly didn't mean to but couldn't stop what he felt.

It hurt that he loved both instead of one and he desperately desired for a way to choose but one thing he did know, that he realized in many a battle where both Kikyo and Kagome were in danger. He would always protect Kikyo, rather than aid Kagome first even though the priestess was lifeless. As he would pick her up and hold her he knew this fact and also he knew how it tore Kagome apart to watch. Once she had been injured so terribly that Kagome had to be taken back to her era.

Flash back

Naraku whipped a tentacle from his arm quickly; allowing it to fly toward both Kagome and Kikyo, for it had split into two separate parts. Kikyo's eyes narrowed while the teenage miko's widened considerably. Time slowed for, he believed, all in the vicinity for there were people that most cared for the two. The demon exterminator Sango, monk Miroku, demon fox Shippo, fire cat Kilala and Inuyasha worried for Kagome. Yet at the same time the hanyou feared for Kikyo even more.

As he stared into blue grey depths he knew that Kagome figured out who he was going to save. Tears welled up as Inuyasha took a step past and lifted Kikyo from harms way. Inuyasha had never felt so much pain tare him apart. He would have fought the thing if it hadn't been for two factors.

One, Kikyo was almost dead from the loss of souls.

Two, he had Tetsuiga thrown by Naraku.

As the half breed slid to a stop where a soul collectors path lay and he turned to face Kagome his blood ran cold. The miko was smiling a sad, hurtful smile and as the tentacle crunched through her skin, she threw up a large amount of her blood supply she showed no other pain. Another warped arm came in her throat and through her legs for the stomach was already being destroyed by the first blow. Still she smiled and cried and stared.

The sound of Sango screaming while Kilala pulled her back missed Inuyasha ears. Miroku came beside Kagome, his arm slightly in front of her sucking in the tentacles. Blood spewed from his mouth and from weakness he staggered back. Kagura threw her wind blades puncturing his stomach and throwing him far away. Sango, as she came down to Miroku, threw her boomerang bone at Naraku only to have it destroyed. Inuyasha had been running toward his friend when Kagome finally screamed.

All eyes turned to the miko who was now standing. A light came from her body that reached upward and killed Kagura painfully. Naraku took this chance to throw the female far and fast. Kagome landed further away from Inuyasha who was running toward her. Another tentacle came down ward toward her heart and Inuyasha recalled screaming but no words came.

Dust flew suddenly, a large amount. None could see anything. Inuyasha's heart pounded quickly and hard within his chest. An eerie silence broke over all, besides the laugh of Naraku. It took eternity for the dust to fall away and as this lapse of time over took all Shippo and Sango cried. Then there was a light seen through a disappearing smoke. Two shadows showed and Inuyasha's eyes widened in shock. Naraku hissed a. "What?"

Sesshoumaru stood in all his glory over Kagome's body holding Tokigen before her throat which was battling a vine of sickening poisons. Kagome reached small fingers to it and the thing disappeared all the way to Naraku's neck. His eyes were wide and as he tried to escape Kikyo summoned Hell to open below him. Yet an eye escaped the torture he would have received.

The demon lord had bent to Kagome and whispered something in her ear. She smiled as he left and that's when Inuyasha noticed. The demon lord had two arms and by the looks of it a healthy instead of sickly child following him. Rin, he recalled, had came down with a terrible fever, maybe even the plague.

Miroku limped weakly to Kagome by Sango's, Shippo's and Kilala's side. The miko was choking on her own blood and slowly dieing. Inuyasha turned away back to Kikyo to find her lifeless body before him. Anger struck him and then, grief. He fell to his knees before her and screamed out. He felt tears sting his eyes momentarily before controlling their release.

"Kilala, to Inuyasha now." Kagome had managed with the last of her strength to rise onto the cats back. Sango was angry yet said nothing. The fire cat was reluctant to do as she asked but was loyal to her friend's wishes. "I'm so sorry Inuyasha." The miko's eyes watered up as she thought of how far into despair he must be.

The feline landed at least five feet away, not wanting to be close to the half breed at the moment. Kagome patted er and managed to crawl over to her dear friend. "Inuyasha I'm so sorry." The boy didn't say anything to her.

Kagome looked down ward. Kikyo, she had always been at the core of Inuyasha's heart, safe, while Kagome remained on the edges, tottering dangerously. It made Kagome so jealous that none could possibly believe yet what could she do. A person's heart is indeed a person's heart and it can not be controlled or tamed by force. But oh how she wanted to be with him in such a way as Kikyo was. She wanted Inuyasha to love her as much as he loved Kikyo but that was very unlikely. A sigh came from, along with a few hacks of blood. Inuyasha finally turned to her in order to asses the damage. She would die to.

And then Kagome shocked him beyond belief. She laid her hands upon Kikyo's chest and a light came forth. Yet every attempt to revive failed. Eventually the miko began to cry for she wanted Inuyasha to be as happy as possible and as she through a large shock into it that's when it happened. The miko convulsed in immense pain, shaking and spewing blood in large quantities.

"Kagome, damn it hang on." The male lifted her and ran, not to Keade's but instead, to the well. He leapt through and after many hours found himself staring into hurt blue grey eyes once again. After that evening though they remained grey for a long while until Inuyasha held her when she was fully recovered.

End of Flash Back

The boy stood at the well silently awaiting the miko's return. He wondered silently, would she be angry? Had he gone off to quickly? But then again she didn't expect him to wait for her did she? He sighed loudly while kicking a ball Sota left outside accidentally or something. There was just no telling what Kagome would do when she came home.

A smirk threatened to appear. It would be interesting and funny to see her reaction if she was slightly angry but if she was sad that would be another story. He didn't want her to be upset at all really but despair would destroy him entirely. Another sigh heaved from his chest. He just didn't know what to do sometimes, more so when she would smile so fake like, hiding anger, sadness or anything she didn't want him to know.

The sound of a shoji door sliding open grasped his attention easily pulling him from his thoughts. At the sight caught by his amber eye Inuyasha smiled with care. Miss Higurashi was walking toward him with a bowl of ramen in her hands. The young man walked to where she sat, urging him to come forth. It was upon a grey cement bench beside the Goshinkbu tree. "Are you waiting for Kagome Inuyasha or have you come to see me?" He chuckled at her joke before seating himself on the ground.

"Both and thanks." She smiled at him as she handed him the bowl. Her hand wandered to his ear causing him to relax a tad more than usual. When around women, Kagome's mother noted, that he cared for as friend or what other he stayed intent and protective. He was normally cautious but that didn't mean she approved. This is where she and her daughter are the same, each want the hanyou to be happy.

Inuyasha, she noticed, always ate his ramen in complete and utter bliss, though rather quickly which mustn't be healthy. The young man had to have set a record for the world when he finished in less than five seconds. "Inuyasha I need your help with something."

"Like what Ms. Higurashi?" The young woman smiled.

"Could you go get your hat and come to the animal shelter with me?"

"What's an animal shelter?"

"It's a place where when certain animals are treated badly they are taken care of." Inuyasha's face showed disdain.

"So what's so special about these animals that their taken care of?"

"Come with me and you shall soon find out." He nodded before retrieving his hat.

Oh indeed did he understand for as soon as he walked through the door he noticed cats, dogs and birds. Most likely pets cast out he reasoned. Yet why were they here? He turned to find Ms. Higurashi heading toward the dogs and gulped. He of course followed, though slowly. "Which one should I get for Kagome? I want her to be protected here and ever since she met you she's loved dogs."

"What makes you think I'd know?" The female smiled with that same smile Kagome had. She was pleading and immediately he caved. "Alright let me look at them."

There was a beautiful female Inu Shiva but he wasn't sure if she'd be good. She was a female after all and males are far better protectors. He continued walking. She should probably get a pup. The one's he noticed were too young. And then Inuyasha seen him. A large white, albino wolf and, from pictures Kagome teased him with, German shepherd came through the door. "Ms. Higurashi it's that one."

The woman smiled and walked to the male and asked. "May I buy him?"

"Well miss this one's to be put to sleep yet, since he's no danger in him, if you have the money then its fine with me."

"Good."


So how is it guys, I hope you like it.
