Next chapter... The story will be picking up after this.

Chapter Two: Enter Sesshomaru


Out of high school with a surprisingly three point two Gpa, Kagome was working, attending college, and had her own apartment five years after she had first fell into the well. After her leaving, she had isolated herself from everyone she knew.

Her friends were just acquaintance's now. Some people who she once were friends with in school.

Her family was graced with a phone call every now and again when Kagome felt guilty about not speaking to them for over an extended amount of time. She was basically living to live.

She had hoped that Sesshomaru would come and find her within a year of her returning home, but that did not happen and so Kagome gave up. She had mourned her friends that passing year, but to cover it up, she excelled at school.

All of her work turned in weeks before it was suppose to be turned in. Her health surprised everyone, seeing as she was 'supposedly sick' all of the time. So when she did start to attend school regularly, it gave everyone a shock.

Hojo, being the sweet person that he was, never left her to be by herself. He had long ago figured out that they would never be, but he remained loyal friends. Out of all of the people that Kagome associated herself with, he was the one most talked to. Hojo made it a point to call Kagome every two to three days.

Kagome had not known that she had become dependent on his calls, his voice, until one week he didn't call at all.

Kagome started to panic when she finally noticed that on that forth day, Hojo didn't call her. It had become so routine to her that she needed it. She went to his apartment and banged on the door like the mad woman she was. Hojo finally did arrive to answer the door, Kagome threw herself on him and sobbed her heart out.

Hojo took her light weight in his arms and hugged her to his body. He brought her into the living room and sat down on the sofa, letting Kagome cry for all it was worth. Her mumbling of him leaving her like everyone else kind of told him what was wrong. When Kagome finally did stop crying, Hojo had his shirt soaked through in some areas.

Kagome talked and talked about missing her friends and how she was never going to see them again and so on and so forth.. From then on, he called Kagome no matter the circumstances.

He was her best friend.

Now Kagome was at her computer desk at the school's library where she worked. No one was in early in the morning and Kagome relished it. She had stopped by the american coffee shop called Stars and gotten her a coffee and a scone in a spur of the moment decision. She had gotten up earlier than usual and she deserved a treat.

Sitting at the desk playing BINGO on the computer for boredom, Kagome felt the hairs on the back of her neck rise. A feeling so familiar washed over her that she almost melted into the floor at the out of place sensation.

A demonic aura.

Kagome looked around and saw nothing, but that didn't deter her. There was a demon nearby and by Kami she was going to find it. Since she had left the well, she had felt nothing. Not even a tiny spark.

Her Spiritual powers worked just fine though, which surprised her. She could still shoot a bow and arrow and she could still place a barrier. Of course she could do a lot more than that now that she had nothing else to do but practice.

Kagome got up and walked around the library. The demonic pressure would ease and then increase, like it was searching for something, testing boundaries.

Kagome flared her aura and she felt the heaviness of that pressure rain down on her...

It was coming right at her.

Kagome turned around and there he was. In all of his glory, looking no different then from what she had seen last time of him.

Sesshomaru.

He looked at her with something of relief and awe in those golden eyes. He wore black slacks and a button down red shirt. A black tie at his throat and a suit jacket in his hands. He walked towards Kagome with almost feminine grace. When he was right in front of her, he smirked and said three words.

"I found you."

Kagome feinted.
