A Second Chance at Love
Chapter 3
Kagome woke up shortly after sunrise; she blinked a couple of times before looking up and seeing Sesshomaru gazing at her lovingly. It took her a couple of minutes to remember what had transpired between herself and Sesshomaru the previous day.
"Good morning Kagome." Sesshomaru said as he watched Kagome expression exchange from groggy to confused to content in a matter of seconds. "Good morning Sesshomaru." She said as Shippou and Rin began to stir.
"Mom, are you going to make your wish soon?" Shippou asked after he said good morning. "Yes, Shippou I just need to make sure every one is awake first." She replied.
Kagome got up then and walked over to Kagura, Ginta, and Hakkaku. "Good morning you three, how has your healing been progressing Kagura?" She asked as the wolves greeted her.
"I have been healing fine; the wolves are taking good care of me despite the pain I have caused their tribe. I do miss Kanna though; however she died in the final battle." Kagura said, her eyes clouded in sorrow. Kagome gave a small smile as she leaned over and embraced the wind demon.
Kagura was shocked, she had caused so much pain during her time with Naraku, yet Kagome and the wolves cared for her as if she had done nothing wrong.
Kagome bid good day then continued on her way to say hello to everyone. Once everyone was awake they came to the centre of the village and stood in front of Kagome.
"I was wondering at first what to wish, I wanted a wish where everyone would be happy, because there is so much pain that came from Naraku. I finally came upon the answer. Almost everyone here has lost someone dear to them. Inuyasha lost Kikyo, and Kikyo lost her life only to be revived for the wrong reasons. Sango lost her entire tribe, and her brother because of Naraku's treachery. Miroku lost his father and grandfather to a curse, Kouga and his tribe lost a brother tribe, and Kagura lost her sister. As I thought of all the people who have died because of Naraku I decided on my wish." Kagome said as she took the jewel and held it out before her.
"I wish upon the Shikon no Tama that all those who have died because of Naraku would be given a second chance at life." She finished as the jewel began to glow a bright pink.
Suddenly a brilliant white light erupted from the jewel and disappeared just as quickly. A great gasp was heard across the clearing as a group of people appeared from thin air.
Sango and Miroku could only stare as their family members detached themselves from the group and approached the young couple. Miroku looked in shock at his father and grandfather before pulling them into a loving embrace, and Sango found herself hugging every one from her village that she could touch. She then turned to see Kohaku smiling at her and she nearly broke down into tears as he rushed forward and embraced her saying, "sister I'm sorry."
Inuyasha was smiling at Kikyo who had also been enveloped in the light only to be reborn as a living being.
Kouga and his tribe's were reunited and hugging and crying.
Off to the side Kagura was looking at Kanna with a shocked look upon her face. Kanna turned to her and smiled. "Sister we are free," Upon hearing those words Kagura broke into tears and rushed to embrace her sister, Ginta and Hakkaku following in behind.
Sesshomaru was surprised to see his fallen warriors walking amidst the fray, but what surprised him more was Jaken running up to Rin to make sure she was okay.
He then turned his attention to Kagome who was watching with a smile upon her face. He then watched in horror as the Jewel began to sink into her chest.
"Sesshomaru the jewel tells me I cannot stay in this era. I ask you to watch over our children, and never forget me." She whispered as her image began to fade.
Rushing towards her, he attempted to touch her only to have his hand go right through her being. He watched in sorrow as she faded from view and chose his last words carefully. "We will see you again my love from the future.
Kagome arrived in her time in tears. She had finally found someone to love her back, and she was taken from him. Kagome looked up and realized she had been sent back into the well house where it all had started.
Drawing in a shaky breath, she pulled back the door and walked towards the house. She knew that well would not work, the jewel was finally complete and powerless with the wish made.
So she went on with her life, it wasn't easy at first. For the first year she suffered from great depression, and had even contemplated suicide, but as she continued on in school she began to notice faint demonic auras in the hallways.
She eventually met up with a small group of quarter blood demons; she had never noticed them before she went to the past, but now she found herself finding more comfort in the group then ever. These demons would end up being a great help during her times of depression over the years.
She graduated from high school two and a half years after returning home, with honors in History (duh.), Biology, and Math surprisingly. She then applied to Tokyo University, she was accepted into the medical program (she intended to use her Miko powers secretly to help her help others) and she took History courses on the side.
Kagome let out a sigh as she looked up from the well, yes it had been three years since she last seen her friends and her past love, but they were in the past and she the future.
She had long given up on loving another man; every date she went on she would not see the human male before her but a great TaiYoukai. Eventually she just stopped dating to avoid hurting the men and herself, so instead she focused on her studies.
"Kagome, are you still driving me to school on the way to class?" Souta asked as he ran up to his sister who was leaving the well face with a sad look on her face. "Hey Kags, come on cheer up you start your Sengoku Period history class today. Maybe you'll even be in a legend or two." He added excitedly as Kagome swung her backpack over her shoulder.
"I suppose…" She said as she jumped into the driver's side of her baby blue Nissan.
After Kagome dropped her brother off at school she sped off to Tokyo U.
Kagome walked into the classroom and chose a desk the rows from the back of the class, she was early and she knew it, but she wanted to be just to see what kind of people would be taking the class.
Around ten minutes till the start of class a large group of people entered the classroom. So far Kagome was not impressed; the majority of the class was overweight men whose clothing just screamed GEEK. The girls were not much better.
She watched as a few people walked past her and rolled her eyes. Most of the people in the back row were obviously jocks taking the class as a filler course.
The moment the professor walked in the class grew to a dim murmur.
Taking out her notebook she prepared to take notes, just for fun she expanded her aura a bit to see if there were any demonic geeks taking the course.
She was met with disappointment. She sighed and withdrew her aura as she looked at the teacher. He was a western teacher and had a big beard and curly brown hair atop his head.
"Hello I am Mr. MacGregor. (my history teachers real name ;P) I will be teaching you about the Sengoku period during this semester. First I would like to see what you know about the period."
"Who here knows the legend of the mystic Shikon no Tama and its mysterious guardian?"
Kagome's head shot up as she stared in shock. Her hand instantly went to where the jewel lay dormant. Deciding not to be a know it all she kept her mouth shut and decided to just write her answers down.
(A.N From here on in italics will be Kagome's notes.)
Opening her note book she wrote I do. Unknown to her, a pair of eyes perked as they caught sight of her written answer.
"Legend goes that a mysterious Miko appeared and freed the terrifying Hanyou, yet she did not fear him she could subdue him with a simple word."
Kagome smiled. Yep and the terrifying hanyou was called Inuyasha, and the subduing word was sit. She wrote with a smile, gaining a raised eyebrow from behind her.
"The mysterious Miko broke the Shikon no Tama in a brave act to free it from a terrifying dragon who had stolen it.
Wow, where do people come up with there things, first of all it was a crow that took the jewel, second it was a stupid mistake the jewel got broken. The eyes were now watching with interest as Kagome scribbled her notes.
"The Miko sought the help of an assassin trained to kill demons, who had enslaved a terrifying monster.
Demon exterminator her name was Sango. The terrifying monster was a two tailed kitty called Kirara who liked to cuddle.
"She also sought the help of a cursed monk."
"Miroku, more like a lecherous pervert.
She was able to enslave a rouge Kitsune demon, whom she forced to do her bidding in battle."
Enslave? Shippou was like a son, plus Inuyasha hated having him in battles said he got in the way.
"As they traveled they came across many foes, but none of them was as great as the spider demon. Who lusted for the jewel, and used the hundred of demons at his disposal to attack them." The teacher continued.
Yep, his name was Naraku, but he didn't have hundreds of demons at his disposal he had a few spawns who did his bidding. One of which that eventually turned against him. Her name was Kagura and her sisters name was Kanna
"Finally the final battle arrived, two great lords aided in the battle. But the greatest shocker of all was the aid of the previous guardian of the jewel. The previous guardian had died, only to be revived with a vengeance against the hanyou."
Kouga and Sesshomaru… Kikyo, at first she was an enemy but in the end a friend. As her reincarnation I both respected and feared her.
Kagome heard a gasp from behind her as she wrote the last bit down, with the gasp came a small burst of Youkai, which she swore she remembered from somewhere.
Turning around to see the source of the aura she was surprised to see a pair of familiar azure eyes staring back at her.
Shock overcame Kagome as a single name escaped her lips, "Kouga."
Avoids objects that are thrown in general direction of author. I hope you aren't too upset with the ending of the chapter, by the way I love cliffies. I hope to update again before the weekend is over but it all depends on my laziness level, and how many reviews I get, the more I get the more I will want to update…. Read and Review.
P.S Thank you for all the reviews that I have received.
