Chapter2
When Kagome reached the hut where Kaede took residence, she entered, pushing open the door flap." How are ye Kagome?" The wizened miko asked when she noticed the black haired girl's entry.
"Great, Kaede!" Sinking to the ground, Kagome pulled off her yellow backpack just as Inuyasha walked in, followed by Miroku. Shippo watched animatedly as Kagome pulled things out of her bag. After all this time he still had no idea how she could fit so much into it, "Here you go Shippo!" Kagome handed him a new paper pad, seeing as he used up all of his old paper, and a pack of crayola crayons. He squealed and took it from her hand with a," Thank you!" and went straight to coloring. Finally Kagome had emptied her bag and took a deep breath, "Umm…I'm not going to be here for three more weeks…I brought you guys some supplies." Sango looked up from where she was waxing her giant Boomerang with a sad look, "Already? But Kagome, You just got back!" Kagome nodded and began sorting out the items she brought them.
Kagome ran the supplies through her mind even though she had already double-checked them at home, she just couldn't look at the disappointed look on her near sister's face. But Kagome refused to give in. She had been looking forward to this. Desperate to change the subject Kagome asked, "So, Sango, How's your baby doing?" Sango snorted, she hardly looked any different, seeing as she wasn't far in her pregnancy, however she had gained a couple pounds and her stomach was a little rounder than before.
"What baby?" She replied sarcastically. Miroku pulled a mock hurt face and said in a pained tone, "Sango! Was I so bad that you don't even remember? Well, we'll have to do it again and do it right, now won't w-" Sango slammed her Hirokatsuu on the monks head angrily, "You stupid pervert! Why did I marry you?" after a second of silence she added, "Don't answer that." Miroku was unconscious so he really wouldn't be able to. "Well," Kagome started with a giggle, "Your mood swings are settling in!" Sango glared playfully at Kagome. "Well you have just as many mood swings as I do on a regular basis, are you pregnant then Kagome?" Kagome turned bright pink and stuttered a, "no…" After a couple more hours of discussion and Miroku waking up and being knocked out again, Kagome announced that it was time she get going.
"Bye Sango!" Kagome called over shoulder and climbed the hill to the well. As she walked she didn't notice the red and silver blur running around her, to deep in thought of what she needed to do.
'That idiot!' Inuyasha thought as he circled the girl, 'She's wide open for an attack!'
'Lets see,' Kagome thought, 'I need to pack a few more things, change out of this skirt and change to a nice martial arts outfit. Dad will be so happy to see me where them!' Kagome's thought concluded as she climbed the lip of the well and jumped in. Immediately she was surrounded by a bright blue light and fell through to her era.
Inuyasha debated whether to go after her or not, finally he decided he should. There was no way he was letting that wimpy boy have HIS Kagome. He doubted that the older version of that little boy could be stronger than he could but it hurt to know Kagome did. Jumping in the well he landed in the Modern Era just as Kagome closed the well house door.
When Kagome finally got to her room she started to change into the white and blue fighting outfit. Luckily for both Inuyasha (who was in the tree outside her room) and Kagome, she had her back at the window. After that she left the room with a duffel bag and went down the stairs.
"I'm leaving to the train station now," Kagome told her mother, "Are you sure you wouldn't like a ride?" Mrs. Higurashi asked turning from the sink where she was washing the dishes. Kagome shook her head and walked out the door. She stopped at the bottom of the steps and chanted something incoherent. Inuyasha attempted to follow, but when he made to jump on to the next branch he hit something hard that through him back to the ground. Inuyasha sat in shock for a few seconds before trying to get through with the Tetsusaiga only to find it wouldn't work.
'Of course,' He thought angrily stomping back to the well house,' it's a miko barrier, my sword only cut through DEMON barriers. Stupid wench.'
Kagome walked along the sidewalk hauling her Yorkshire Terrier sized duffel bag. One would not think she could fit the necessities of three weeks but in West city they had little gadgets call, capsules that you put things in but the get real tiny but expand again when you take them out.
Finally Kagome reached the train station. as she passed the ticket booth she noticed how long the line was only to be thankful she purchased hers before she got here. Kagome handed the conductor her ticket, where he punched a whole in it and gave it back to her. Climbing aboard she found an empty compartment and took a seat next to the window. Luckily for her, no one entered her compartment, instead they passed without a glance.
The trip was long and uneventful. An elderly lady pushing a food cart opened the door half way there and asked if Kagome wanted to purchase anything. Kagome paid her for water and the old woman left near as quick as she left.
'Jeez,' thought Kagome,' why does everyone seem to be avoiding me? Then again,' Looking down at her clothes Kagome concluded her thoughts,' I look like a real fighter in this.' The train finally stopped in West City and Kagome got off.
After a bit of a walk Kagome finally found an old empty house that no one seemed to have bothered to fix but abandoned and made her way to the roof. When she got there, she bent a little and kicked off the ground. Powering up a little, she allowed herself to feel the breeze of the air before shooting off through the air to her destination in the woods a bit away from the city.
