Hi guys! I updated both Cherry Blossom, Lily and ForgetMeNot and The Flowers in Soul Society. I'm so proud of myself. This chapter focuses on Inuyasha and Kagome. I know that all of you are angry with me because this is a KarinxToushiro story and you haven't read from them yet. But patience please, I need to explain these things and the next chapter will be about Karin, I promise. Please read and review. I really want to know what you think.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, Bleach or Naruto but I do own this story.

Chapter 4: With Inuyasha

Inuyasha sighed. Kikyo had been travelling with them for a while now and he was confused. Did she want to kill him or stay with him? He put his head between his knees and frowned. Kagome hadn't been herself. She didn't fight with him, she didn't hit Miroku anymore and her laughter with Sango's had disappeared. He looked for her and saw her sitting with Sango and whispering something to her. He soon forgot all about Kagome when Kikyo sat next to him and kissed him with passion.

'''

Kagome let a tear escape from her eye when she saw Kikyo and Inuyasha kissing each other. She didn't know why it hurt some much when she saw Kikyo and Inuyasha together. She turned to Sango and whispered:

"I can't stay here anymore."

"Kagome, what are you talking about?"

"You don't need me anymore, Sango. You have Kikyo now. She's lot more talented than I am and Inuyasha loves her."
"You're talking rubbish. Or what do you think, Miroku?"

"Sango, I must admit that Kikyo is more useful some times. No offence, Kagome."
"None taken, I know that it's true."
"But Kikyo is so cold. She won't speak to anyone else except Inuyasha and she detests Shippo. And Miroku, you remember how she reacted when we asked for her help yesterday."
"Hmm. You do have some good points there, Sango."

"I told you so."
"But you guys have to protect me all the time. We aren't making any progress because all of you have to watch my back."

Sango and Miroku couldn't deny that but they knew that Inuyasha enjoyed protecting her. They did also. Kagome was so kind hearted that they didn't want to let her go. Kagome smiled sadly and said:

"I'll leave tomorrow morning. Please don't tell Inuyasha or Kikyo. Good night."

"Good night, Kagome."
"Are you sure that you don't need me next to you?"

"Pervert!!!"

Kagome chuckled. She was going to miss Sango and Miroku's fights.

'''

Shippo tried not to cry but when he heard that Kagome was really going to leave he couldn't help himself. He felt someone to come next to him. He turned to the person.

"Shippo-chan don't cry. I'm sure that Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha will take good care of you."
"But they're not you, Kagome. Do you really have to go?"

"Yes, but I'll tell you a secret. If everything goes like the plan, we will see each other quite soon."

"You promise?"

"Yes, I promise."

With that Kagome laid down and took Shippo in her arms. Shippo sighed happily and decided that he was going to make Kikyo and Inuyasha's life hell.

'''

Renji cursed for the 100th time. He was lost and he had met some really freaky people. Suddenly he felt a weird reiatsu and decided to check it out. He ran fast so no one could notice him.

''''

Inuyasha broke their kiss when he felt someone coming. He stood up and took his sword. He looked around and then ran in front of Kagome. Kikyo, Miroku and Sango felt the same aura and took their weapons. Suddenly they heard steps and saw a man coming from the forest.

"Excuse me, but is one of you Inuyasha?" asked the man.

"I am. Are you looking for a fight?" asked Inuyasha who thought that he was so famous that everyone came looking for him. The man muttered something that sounded like: 'He's so much like him. I swear that I'm going to kick his ass if he doesn't stop smirking so cockily.'

"No, I'm not. My boss told me to get you because we are in war." the man answered.

"Well tell your boss that I'm not somebody who helps some stranger out." Inuyasha growled.

"My boss said that you would say that. He also told me to say that you own your life to him." the man explained. Inuyasha stiffened and asked:

"What was the name of your boss?"
"Yamamoto."

"What that old man wants from me?"
"I already told you. We are in war and we need your help."
"My help only or my friends' help too?"

"Your and your friends'?"

"Is there the exact time when we have to be in Soul Society?"
"Yes, we will leave at ten tomorrow morning."

"Okay. And your name is?"
"Abarai, Renji Abarai."

'''

Sango smiled hopefully. Maybe Kagome would stay now. She looked at Miroku who shook his head. Kagome didn't want to burden to them and this mission sounded like dangerous one. Sango's smile fell. He was right. This would be the last night that Kagome spent with them.

'''

Inuyasha woke up and he was excited about the mission. Then he frowned. Something was missing. He looked around him and saw Renji, Kikyo, Sango, Miroku, Kilala and Shippo, but Kagome was missing. He jumped up and yelled:

"Where the hell is Kagome?"
Sango, Miroku and Shippo glanced at each other guiltily. Inuyasha noticed that and asked them with dangerous tone:

"Where is she?"

Miroku was the one who was brave enough to answer:

"She left to her own world. She felt like burden."

Inuyasha's face darkened and muttered with murderous tone:

"Wait here. I'm going to get that wench back."

With that he ran towards the well.

''

Kagome jumped from the well and ran in her room. She packed her bag with clothes, makeup and food. Then she searched for her necklace. She finally found it and muttered quietly while touching the necklace: "Kagome Higurashi. Rose of the Akatsuki Flowers." With that her hair was tied in a bun and her eyes became lighter. Her figure was now something that every girl wanted. She looked at herself from the mirror and snapped her fingers. Soon she had a dark green top and a black miniskirt. She smiled a little and ran to the kitchen.

"Hey mum! Hi Sota! Are you okay, grandpa?"

Each one of them looked at Kagome like she was an alien.

"Well anyway I gotta go now. Tell Inuyasha if he comes here not look for me. See you!"

They only waved. It was normal that Kagome disappeared once in a while.

'''

Inuyasha jumped from the well and ran to Kagome's house. He ran in and yelled:

"Kagome! Where are you? We need to leave now."

Then Kagome's mother came from the kitchen and said:

"I'm sorry Inuyasha but Kagome just left."

"Where did she go to?"

"I don't know but she told me to tell you that you shouldn't look for her."
"Damn it."

"You know, this isn't the first time when she does this."

"It isn't? What do you mean?"
"She did constantly about five years ago when she 14. She left everyday the house and came home only weeks later. And when she came back she was wounded very badly."

"Should I go look for her?"

"No. She'll be just fine. You should go back to your own time."

"Thank you, Mrs. Higurashi."

"You're welcome."

'''

Shippo saw Inuyasha coming alone and sighed. his life would be hell without Kagome.

"Let's go." said Inuyasha and Renji led them to Soul Society through a portal.

When they were standing Renji said:

"You have to wait here. I have some other things to do first."

With that he left running.
