Chapter 3- On our Way to the West

I ran with Kira until I found a cave that we could stay in for the night. Kira had fallen asleep while we ran and woke up only a few times complaining of hunger.

"Soon." I would say and she would be lulled back to sleep.

I set up a barrier at the entrance of the cave and went out and gathered firewood and some berries that were edible. When I came back the masked person I saw earlier was climbing off of Kilala. I went into the cave and put the supplies I had gathered down. I rushed back to the entrance of the cave and stepped outside the barrier.

"Sango? Is it you, sister?" I asked being cautious.

She threw the hood off and there stood a fifty year old woman.

"Yes it is me, but why are you here? You have some guts coming back here after abandoning us." Sango yelled.

"Abandoning you? I didn't want to! I was coming back. I wanted to say my final goodbyes and return to this world. The well trapped me in my time. If I had known that time was so different I never would've gone home." I said.

"What do you mean, time was different?" Sango asked.

"Sango, that little girl sleeping in that cave is only 6 years old. It's only been six almost seven years in my time." I said and waited for what I said to dawn on her.

"If you don't believe me I understand but believe this. I was alone. I was a half-demon in a world of humans. I never finished my studies or went out. I stayed hidden for mine and Kira's protection. Once that well opened for me again we would come back and stay. I never wanted to leave. I love you all and whatever kids you had these past fifty years. I hate that so much time has passed and I missed it. I hate myself for that. I love all of you and I have missed you all so much Sango." I said and waited.

I saw the tears rolling down her face and she threw herself against me. I hugged her and started crying.

"Mommy?" Kira called.

I pulled away and looked over at Kira and then back to Sango.

"Would you like to come in and meet my daughter Kira?" I asked and Sango's eyes lit up.

"I would love to." Sango said and Kilala transformed and jumped into Sango's arms.

I reached my hand out to pet Kilala and she growled at me. I pulled my hand back until Sango grabbed it and put my hand on Kilala herself. I let my spiritual powers gently surround Kilala. She started purring and then licked my hand. I smiled.

"Come in Sango." I said and Kira came running up to me.

"Momma is this Aunty Sango?" Kira asked.

"Yes sweetheart this is." I said and she came into the light.

I heard Sango gasp.

"What is it?" I asked.

"She looks like Inuyasha." Sango said.

"She is Inuyasha's. Not to mention she's a full demon." I said and Sango bent down and let her see Kilala.

"Can I hold her?" Kira asked.

"Of course." Sango said and put Kilala in Kira's arms.

I smiled as a smile lit up on Kira's face. I grabbed out some Bento boxes and Sango's face lit up.

"Is that what I think it is?" Sango asked.

"Yes. I brought back enough hopefully for everyone. Let's dig in and then we can take everything else to the others." I said and Sango smiled and opened up her Bento.

"I'm glad your back Kagome, and I hope you stay for a long time." Sango said.

"I plan on it." I said and ate dinner with my beloved sister and my beautiful daughter hoping that I would find Inuyasha soon.
