Chapter two: Over it
Recap- "If you're going to kill me just do it now."
"This Sesshomaru will not kill you Miko." He said as if it were nothing new or surprising.
"But why?" I inquired
"I still owed you a debt of service from before Miko…."

I woke up with a start 'had it all been a dream?' I wondered while placing my hand to my forehead I turned my head to look around my room, No it wasn't a dream, I can remember it now…. My heart began to squeeze painfully so at the thought of seeing Inuyasha with kikyo. But that happened over three months ago and I haven't seen him sence.'I know that he's probably with her right now… I finally realize he'll never change, and im not going to sit here and do nothing; I am not going act like a weak little child and pine after someone as stupid of an asshole as him.' Even with words running through my head, I still felt the sharp pang in my heart.
'No matter what promise he made me he always chooses her… why am I not good enough?' at the betraying thoughts hot liquid slid down my cheek, a stinging starting in my eyes, and my shoulders started to quake… but the trembling of my body was nothing new I knew this pain; and I knew it all too well. 'you need to get over him kagome! He's no good! It may hurt for a while but all his lies and his games hurt tremendously more… Just realize you need to get over it, get over him!' My new determination sparked fiercely in me; as I looked to my left I noticed my Black messenger bag was still packed to its breaking point, I had to trade in the old yellow one a year ago when the bottom of the bag gave out from the mountainous amount of usage over the years and all the battles it had been through finally did it in. Besides I graduated from school last year anyway there was no need to continue looking like a school girl with the Ugly sailors outfit and that overly short skirt. Finally I got to where my cloths, my comfortable baggie cargo pants and, from fitting tank tops that won't fly up when moving at high speeds. I stood up from my bed and stretched every aching limb as I stalked up to the mirror I analyzed my reflection. My onyx bluish- Black hair reached mid thy now from the lack of hair cuts over the four years in the Feudal era, though right now It looked as if it could use a good brushing. I picked up my Black belle comb and softly ran it through my hair from root to the vary tips, taking my time and brushing it completely, I went back to looking at my image. My eyes where a stormy sapphire blue that tend to change with my mood, I had a cute button nose that complemented, my fully pouty lips. 'why doesn't Inuyasha see all that I am? I'm way more than just a copy. I may be a reincarnation of kikyo but that doesn't matter. I'm still my own person and I know for a fact that I have way more to offer. ' My cloths consisted of one of my favorite pares of black cargo pants that clung to my hips, and a white tank-top that had red flower designs all over, it started just above my Brest and cut of just under my belly button. Showing my bare hips; that held two magenta stripes the continued beneath my pant line. And I was wearing a pair of white sneakers to complete my look. As I set my comb back on to its resting place I walked toward my black bag; picking it up I secured it on my shoulder. Inside my bag there were two twin katanas and about a hundred thin nettles that were packed into a tin container. I smiled remembering the plan I had for toughs weapons… I also had packed my ipod and head phones in a plastic bag to protect it from any water damage. Making my way down the stairs slowly the dream still fresh in my head, I heard my mother call out to me "Kagome dear are you heading back now?" she asked just like every other time I left for the feudal ear. "yeah mom I don't know when I'll be back but I'll try to make it soon! I love you." Was my annual reply
"ok well be safe dear!" she called as I was out the door just like every time; my life was beginning to feel like a broken record. I wanted some excitement; no I need some excitement back in my life. I climbed up onto the ledge of the well and looked down into its depths, before I took one step off and plummeted towards the bottom for mere seconds before a blue light engulfed me and then set me down gently on the other side of the well. I looked up to the skies and sighed 'it's so beautiful here, but why is it this era causes me so much pain?' I set my self to the task at hand of climbing up the wall of the bone eaters well. Idly I wondered where had the days of Inuyasha standing here waiting for me to arrive back in the feudal era so that he might help me out of this well had gone. Toughs days once so clear and indefinite, had at some point begun to dwindle blending and blurring together with the days of solitude, till finally they stopped all together. With one last heave I finally launched my gigantic black messenger bag up and over the lip of this god awful well, and with a grunt I swung myself over the lip as well. Once I was finally out of said well I dusted myself off and assessed my surroundings; sending out my reiki but holding it to a ten mile radius, I felt and saw everything around me. But there was one area of blankness that spiked my interest; it was almost perfectly still, almost… pushing a little more of my powers into the circumference and suddenly the blank spot wasn't just a spot and it wasn't all that blank anymore either. It was a demon a high level demon, most likely a Taiyoukai. And it looked like the taiyoukai was sitting. Letting out a puff of frustration which can only be described as irritated sigh. I rained in my reiki just like I had been trained to do; but even Inuyasha did not know that I was receiving this training or that fact that I was in fact even more powerful than Kikyo the women who I just happen to be the reincarnation of. But I had planed it this way at first it was to surprise and impress Inuyasha, but then after the incident; which is what I now refer to that night when I had told Inuyasha to get out of my life. 'But for some reason I always get this feeling that, that night won't be the last time I see Inuyasha no matter how much I wish it to be.' I no longer wished to do it for just him yes I still wanted to show him how powerful I was, but now I had my own reasons. But now having learned all that my sensei could teach me, I've decided I will find another sensei and I'll not only train in the power of my reiki, but also in combat… which is why I bought the twin katanas and the needles and brought them with me. 'I just hope that the only person I have in mind for a sensei will teach me; even if him just considering it would be an honor in its self.' Turning toward the direction of the taiyoukai I began walking determined to find out as to why the demon was here and was not moving…
~o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O~
As I finally made it into the area where I had sensed the demon, I saw none other than the taiyoukai Sesshomaru himself, slumped against a tree bleeding. ' well that solves the mystery of why he wasn't moving. How does he always seem to get himself into these predicaments?' as soon as I had asked myself that question I knew the answer. 'Because he's too stubborn to ask for help. Just like last time…' Shaking my head at the memory I walked over to him dropping my bag down two the ground, and set about the task of dressing and cleaning his wounds. I had managed to get his top of to get a clear shot at his injuries; when I went to touch the disinfectant to one very particular bad wound, he jolted awake grabbing my wrist in an iron grasp. "Miko….." was all that he managed to get out before falling back against the tree and passed out. 'Miko…. Why did he always call me that?' I was lost in my labyrinth of a head while I tended to his injuries, no longer needing to pay attention to the familiar movements. I couldn't help but wonder why exactly he was so near the bone eaters well…
~o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O~
"Kagome!" a shout that sounded so like Inuyasha it wasnt funny. My thoughts were instantly confermed when he came bounding down from somewhere in the sky. "Inuyahsa how did you find me?" I spoke monotonedly so that the qurivering in my voice wouldnt ever have a chance to be heard. But it only hurt worse when i saw Inuyasha let someone slide off of his back and land on the ground. As the person stepped to his side i knew in an instant who it was. Her dull brown eyes, and her Stright black ivory hair, that was always pulled back into a low pony tail. It was Kikyo... That one moment hurt me more than any of the nights that i had watched him run off to meet her in the woods well after midnight, the sight of them kissing, hugging and the sickening sounds of there climxes, or the stabbing jolts of jealousy to my heart when he would tell her he loved her and only her.
"I-I fallowed you sent... at first i wasnt sure if it was actuly you or not becasue i havent sensed you in so long... whats it been like five months?" He stumbbled and fumbbled over evey word all the while scraching the back of his head like it was some laughing matter. "Three months... actuly but whatever." I replyed coldly 'he let her ride his back! that was my spot! it was always my spot! how could he!' i wondered as i watched Kikyo whisper something in his ear, then he flashed that heart renching smile that i had always called my smile... but i wasnt directed at me no it was at her!then he had the never to turn the smile towards me! i cracked...
"Inuyasha, i do believe i told you once before that i wanted you out of my life... so please do tell me why it is you seemed to completely ignor that and come and bother me again." I leveled him with a glare the would have given even Sesshomaru a run for his money... and as if he had heard my thoughts Shessomaru groned i turned around in an instant and went back to bandging him. While adding a nother jabb at inuyasha, who had apparently just realized just who was in the clearing as well. "if all your going to do is stand there and look stupid while standing next to your whore. Then will you do me and the rest of the world a favor and leave."
"But... but i-i... kagome what happened to you? when did you change so much?"
"What happened to me? and when did i change? hm well lets see could it be all thoughs nights i spent watching you run off after Kinky-ho well after midnight assuming everyone was asleep? or Maybe it was when i had heard you tell her that i'm nothing but a shard detector... when i finally realized that you never were a friend of mine? or was it All thoughs nights the i watched as you rutted with that desgusting clay pot standing beside you... Never once Feeling guitly. Or maybe it was just now when you smiled at her the way you used to always smile at me? well you know what it doesnt matter when i changed, all you need to know is that im so over it! I'm over your eyes, your smile, everything about you from you head to your toe's im just so over it! so just LEAVE. ME. ALONE!" Through out my whole tirade i watched as he flinched with every blow and recoild after every fact. Never before had i felt this powerful, this strong and confident. And then just as soon as it was there it disapated with Inuyasha grabbing Kikyo and leaving just like i had demanded, i was so lost to reality that i never heard as Sesshomaru had sat up, or when he had first said Miko. No i didnt hear him for three more times after that till his eyes had begun to bleed red, and his voice had dipped dangorusly low sounding more like a growl. I didnt hear him...
"Miko." When i finally turned my head to look at him i couldnt help the shiver of dread or the impulsive flinch. Miko... thats what he always called me. Even though i didnt like the fact that he either really didnt know my name or maybe he just choose not use it. i didnt care i needed someone right now... as i crawled closer to him blantly ignoring the impulse i had to turn tail and run, and his imposing glare. tears begain to leak slowly down my face, but i refused to cry anymore then that.
"I just dont know what to do anymore, It still hurts me more than i know it should... and i know this is only the very begining of me geting over him, and somewhere along the way the pain will dull, and then maybe finally disappear. But i just want that day to be now, i dont want to feel weak anymore." I confied in him i dont know why but with how little i know that he talks to anyone i knew he wouldnt bother telling anyone because that in fact would be a bother to him. And i knew for a fact that if he could get up and leave then he would. So me being selfsh me complained about my life until i was to tired to even keep my eyes open, and kept on even still till until i was fast asleep, dead to the world.
