Kagome woke up the next morning, she was trembling with fear from the dream she had. "What a weird dream, it was that I couldn't go back to the Feudal Era." Kagome muttered to herself. she the realized that it wasn't a dream, it actually happened. She started talking to the tree again but still there were no answers. She couldn't stand it any longer, she couldn't live without him. "Inuyasha, why won't you come and get me? Is it something I did? Please come and get me. I'm all alone without you!" She would think in her head as she leaned against the tree.
Inuyasha was okay now and he wanted to go back to the well. As he was walking, he heard someone crying by the tree. He ran over to it, but no one was there. "Inuyasha, speak to me. I'm helpless without you!" The voice inside the tree said in a sad voice. He remembered the voice, "K-Kagome?!" He said with some excitement in his voice. She stopped sobbing, "Inuyasha? You're here?" Kagome spoke softly. "Yes, I'm here, but why didn't you come back?" Inuyasha said with caution. "I couldn't, I don't have a shard." Kagome said sadly. " Why didn't you come and get me? I was hoping you would but you never did, I thought you didn't love me anymore." Kagome hesitated. "The well rejected me, I wanted to get you so I could apologize for hurting you." he explained. "I didn't remember you after I returned home, you were like a dream to me. I did remember anything that happened in that time, until I fell of my roof, that made my memory come back." she said in a warm voice. "Well, I couldn't stop thinking of you! I sat by the well for weeks, hoping you would come back." He replied. "I thought you were in love with Kikyo again." Kagome said with jealousy in her voice. " After you left I forgot all about Kikyo, I wanted you not her, you're the one I love." He said softly. Kagome gasped. "What is it?" He asked. " I sense a jewel shard." Kagome spoke swiftly. "I was never able to sense it before but now I can." Kagome said softly. "Oh, well you should go find it. I'll wait here until you get back." he said protectively. "Ok, I'll be back." Kagome said while getting up and running toward the shard. She ran down until she was on the street and car swerved so they wouldn't hit her. She kept running until she reached Hojo's house. "Man, why did it have to be his house?" Kagome sighed under her breath while walking up to his door and knocking on it. Hojo answered it, " Oh, Hi Kagome, what brings you here?" He said sweetly. " did you stop by my house anytime this month?" Kagome questioned him. "Yes, why?" He said sounded a bit confused. " While you were there, did you by chance find a piece of something that looked like a jewel?" Kagome said trying not make it sound weird. "Yes, I was a pretty piece of glass so I picked it up and thought of giving it to you in case it was important." He said smartly. "Well I do need it, so can I please have it?" Kagome asked him. "Sure wait here" he said while walking into a different room. Kagome then felt the shard moving closer. "Here you go, have a nice day." he said happily. " You too!" she yelled back as she ran back to her house.
Kagome arrived at her house and she was sweaty and tired from running so much. She collapsed by the tree. "I'm back" She said between her gasps for air. "Ok, now go to the well and jump in!" Inuyasha said impatiently. No reply. "K-Kagome?" he said sounding a bit worried. He then had realized that she fell asleep from all her exhaustion. That made him a bit sad that he won't get it see her for another few hours. Inuyasha got up and dragged himself back to Kaede's Hut. " I guess since Kagome get to sleep for a little bit she won't mind if I rest too." Inuyasha said to himself tiredly. Finally Inuyasha laid down on the floor and feel asleep. Sango then walked into the room and thinking, " That silly Inuyasha" and walking away while giggling.
"Inu-Inuyasha? Are you there?" Kagome said tiredly. No answer. " I guess he was tired too, I guess I'll just surprise him." Kagome said happily. Kagome jetted into her house collecting whatever she needed. She was running back and forth and her mom was just staring at her like she was crazy. Kagome had finally gotten all her stuff and she was soo tired, but she couldn't fall asleep again. She needed to see Inuyasha. She walked toward the well and her mom followed her to make sure nothing happened to her. "Are you gonna be alright?" Her mom asked carefully. "Yeah. I'll be fine plus I'm with Inuyasha." She called back while jumping down the well. Nothing happened. She realized she had forgotten the jewel shard on her dresser. She ran as fast as she could to get it. She came back and picked up all the stuff she had dropped. "Okay, now I'm ready." Kagome said patiently. "Okay, bye honey!" Her mom said while Kagome jumped down the well once more. There was a blue flashing light and Kagome felt like she was flying. Kagome was really happy, she hasn't been this happy since she met Inuyasha. She appeared in the well again. As she climbed up she saw that she was in a forest. "I'm back." she whispered under her breath.
