It's been a few days since Inuyasha had found Kagome. Sure, it was hard with the company. And, hard for him to go to work. So, he took a week of a paid vacation. So, it was better to stay home to teach her a few thigns. Like... ugh he's going to hate to admit this, but how to eat...

"Okay Kagome. You have to eat something... There has to be some kind of process to this... But what?" Inuyasha said, mumbling the last part.

Kagome just stared at the bowl in front of her. It was a steaming bowl of ramen. Ever since he had brought her home, she hadn't eaten or even shown any signs of wanting to eat. But, Inuyasha knew that it wasn't healthy. So, he thought that he should get her to eat at least... But, that hasn't been working at all. It was just hard to teach someone something as basic as eating, and using a fork and a spoon.

Kagome just kept her gaze on the bowl. She still wouldn't say anything. Her eyes, still the same as they were when he found her. Dull and void of any life. It was something that bothered him. But, he still wanted to know what had happened to her. Sighing, he got up from his seat and grabbed a chair to sit next to her. placing his hands on her shoulders, he turned her to face him.

"Okay Kagome, since you won't eat, I'll have to feed you. Alright?"

His only answer was a blink of her eyes.

It was better then nothing. Grabbing her bowl, he grabbed a fork and had some of the noodles wrapped around the utensle. Holding it in front of her mouth he said "Kagome, I need you to open your mouth. Like this." Inuyasha opened his own mouth for good mesure. Soon enough, she did as he instructed, and he started to feed her. At least she could understand him... Sorta.

She stared at him, her eyes filled with a strange confusion. Couriosaty. And so much more. Which, Inuyasha had to admit, was weird... But, as quickly as those emotions flashed in her eyes, they had disappeared. Inuyasha just wanted to know, what was wrong with her. But, he couldn't get the answers he wanted just like that right. Not like he could snap his fingers and get what he wants from her.

Answers.

The answers to who she is.

Where she came from.

And, why she ended up where she was when he found her.

But, those were something that he didn't and wouldn't understand. There was just something about her that seemed different. Inuyasha shook his head. Trying to get those thoughts out of his mind. There wasn't a point in this after all. Suddenly, the phone rang. Kagome stood up and ran out of the room. Inuyasha had noticed this. That sudden noises spoked her. And, that wasn't something that seemed normal.

Inuyasha answered the phone saying "hello?"

"Hey Inuyasha, how's the girl doing?" Asked Miroku.

"Still the same. I'm trying to see if I can get her to eat... And, you might want to call my cell from now on. Sudden sounds scare her." Replied Inuyasha in a calm tone.

Miroku sighed softly saying "hasn't she spoken at all Inuyasha? Has she given you a name?"

"I have her a name. I couldn't keep calling her 'girl' you know. And, before you ask, I named her Kagome... Something just told me... that was her name." Inuyasha whispered the last part. It was bugging him on how he picked her name. Something deep in his mind. His heart, had told him that 'Kagome' was her name. But that could have been anything right? After all, there was no such thing as a force that tells people what a person's name is... Right?

"Inuyasha? Yo, Inuyasha you there?"

"Yeah, sorry. Spaced out. What were you saying?"

"I was saying that maybe we should search through some old files. Your brother is a FBI agent after all." Miroku calmly pointed out.

Inuyasha wanted to growl. He never liked his brother. They always fought cause Inuyasha's mother was a human. Sure, they had the same father and all. But, Sesshoumaru just never liked his human mother at all. But, over the years they had learned to tolerate each other. But, other then that, they still fought.

"No fucking way. I'd rather kill myself then ask Sesshoumaru for help." Inuyasha growled out. Hey, just cause they can get along kinda doesn't mean they like it one bit.

Sighing from Miroku, the doctor calmly said "look Inuyasha. I know you hate Sesshoumaru, well not hate. But dislike... Anyway, you have to get Kagome to know more about herself. To get information about anyone that has gone missing this month. Cause that could be the only thing that could help with who she really is."

Inuyasha sighed this time. He knew that Miroku was right. But there still wasn't a way to ask Sesshoumaru. He wouldn't and won't ask for help. Miroku took the silence as his answer and said "look, it's either you ask for help or I do. Either way, Kagome has to relearn things or, you can get her to come out of the shell she has wrapped around to protect her." With that, Miroku hung up.

Inuyasha sighed and placed the phone back on it's holder. Walking to his room, he saw Kagome huddled on the bed. Smiling softly, he walked over to her and sat down. He stared at Kagome. She looked so scared. So alone... She almost looked like a lost child that had seen so much wrong in the world and was scared of her own shadow. (which might be true) He wasn't sure how to comfort her. It was something he wasn't used too.

"Kagome... It's okay. Your safe. Nothing will hurt you."

The next thing she did. Surprised him. Kagome tackled him. Not enough to make him fall over. But enough for him to bend back a bit. She clutched his shirt in her small fragil hands and shook with silent sobs. Inuyasha was slightly baffled, and didn't know what to do. But, he had to try to calm her down. Slowly, he wrapped his arms around her. Hoping that would calm her.

His arm wrapped around her shoulders, as the free hand was placed on the back of her head. She burried her face in his chest as she sobbed. What ever that reminded her of... It couldn't have been good if it scared her. Those sudden sounds had something to do with her past... And he had to find out... But, that was harder then it sounds.

She would sob for what felt like hours. Finally, Kagome stopped shaking. When Inuyasha moved his hand from her head, he stared at her face. And he smiled softly at her. She looked so peaceful. Besides the tear stains on her face. He wondered what her life was like... What it was like when she could still remember everything. She looked like one of those girls that were very populair in school and was very smart as well.

Someone that believed to help others before them self.

But again, what does he know.

Sighing softly, he wiped away the stray tears that remained on her face with his thumbs. Careful of his claws. He didn't want to hurt her. Slowly, he laid her down on the bed. He tucked the blanket under her chin and left the room. He stared at her one more time before closing the door to clean up the kitchen. Something was nagging at the back of his mind. But he couldn't be sure what it was... Something was out there... What ever it was, he felt like they wanted Kagome...


"Any luck on finding her?" Asked a man in the shadows.

"No sir... We've lost all track of her... It's like she just disappeared." Said a man with short brown hair as he stared at the man behind a brown oak desk.

Slamming his fist on his desk, he screamed out "unacceptable! Do you understand me! She has to be found. Only she knows where it is! Damn it! I should have locked her up!" The other man gulped in fear. He was begining to think that his boss was insane... Being obsessed with one girl that had gotten away.

"I'm sorry sir! We'll keep looking! She couldn't have gotten far!" Said the employie as he shook in fear.

"You better. She knows where it is. And I must have it! Understood." Said the crazy boss.

"Yes sir!" With that, he left. The boss smirked. Soon... Very soon. He would have what he wants. The only thing he would ever want. And most powerful tressure in the history of man.


Inuyasha was just finishing cleaning up the house. Turning around, he blinked a few times. Standing there was Kagome. She had a blanket wrapped around her. She looked a little scared. He wasn't sure why though. Blinking his golden eyes at her blank brown ones. He walked over to her asking "Kagome, are you okay?" He tilted his head to the side. Wondering why she was awake already. She's only been asleep for an hour at best.

Kagome looked up at him, only to lean closer. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her. Wondering what could be wrong. Then, he calmly asked "Kagome, are you afraid of being alone?" Before he could look away, thinking that he wouldn't get any kind of sign of her understanding him. He saw her slowly nod. Inuyasha blinked a few times. No... No way... She... She understood him?

Shaking his head, he said "you understand me?"

A nod.

"Do you know what your name is?"

Another nod.

"Will you tell me what it is?"

No movement from her.

"Can't win them all." Calmly said Inuyasha. He gently took her hand and started to walk to the bedroom she's been sleeping in since she had arrived. At least Inuyasha knew that Kagome understood him. But, he needed to know... Why did she only respond to him? Why didn't she respond to anyone else? None of this was making any kind of sense at all... But he knew this...

He was starting to help Kagome... Even if it's only a little bit...
