Chapter 7

"So you found her?" Miroku asked. For once, he was serious. He had known Inuyasha since they were five, Koga had known them since they were seven. Koga and Miroku both knew how much this girl meant to Inuyasha. Inuyasha had been searching for this girl for years. Ever since he first met her eight years ago he had been desperate to find her again. His best friends didn't know exactly what happened between him and this girl, but they knew it must have been something special. "So who do you think it is?" Koga said. "Kagome Higurashi." "WHAT!" Koga started to choke on the cookie he was eating, Miroku patted his back. "That cold-hearted girl that apparently sings really well, but still seems cruel; are you sure?" "Positive, she has the mark." "Multiple probably have that mark. Are you sure you aren't mistaking her, just like how you did with Kikyo?" Miroku asked. "Kikyo was a mistake, but not this time. Kagome even has the explanation on why she all of a sudden disappeared."

Meanwhile

"She's like him." Both Ayame and Sango looked up. "You're not talking about?" Ayame asked. "Yeah, that boy I met all those years ago." "Who is it?" Ayame asked again. "Inuyasha." "What? But you described the boy you met as having black hair and black eyes, not even dog ears." "I know, but it's the same disposition, annoying at times, sweet at others." Ring! Ring! Ring! The telephone started to ring. Ayame answered it. "Hello? Jakostu? Wait you're kidding right? Yes, I know that you would never make a joke about this. Yes, yes I know. Ok, we'll be right over." Ayame hung up the phone, "Ok girls, get your band outfits on!" She commanded excitedly.

About 15 minutes later

"You finally are here. Now come on and get into the recording room." The girls walked in only to see the Shikon Shards. Kagome and Sango were shocked, Ayame was smiling. Kagome was shocked, she quickly recovered. Kagome might know him, but Lynx didn't. Besides, she couldn't afford to get emotional. 'No emotions' she checked herself. 'Remember, emotions is what makes you suffer in the end.' "Ok, let's get this started." She said without any emotion at all. The other two girls flinched and looked at each other. 'She still can't get over it.' They thought. Onyx and Sapphire (Koga and Miroku) both looked at Inuyasha. He didn't seem bothered by it. 'I'm going to make her see that emotions do matter.' "Great." He responded. Everyone picked up their instruments. "Ok, please let us start." Inuyasha told the group.

I'm in heaven when you kiss me
Show me how you miss me
Take me with you back to wonderland
I'm in heaven when you kiss me
Show me how you miss me
Take me with you back to wonderland

You catch me with a stare
I follow you anywhere
You lead me into temptation
I guess you need to enjoy
I'm like a kid with a toy
I'm losing my concentration

One kiss from you I'm on fire
Your touch is all I desire
One look and you take me higher
You know I couldn't resist
Yeah I miss
Every time I'm with you
Every time that we kiss

I'm in heaven when you kiss me
Heaven when you kiss me
You were sent to me from wonderland
I'm in heaven when you kiss me
Heaven when you kiss me…

The singing all of a sudden stopped. Everyone was looking at Kagome. Her eyes were wide, her face turned pale. She then ran out of the room. She knew that song. It was the special song that that boy and her made so long ago. It was bringing so many memories and emotions back, things that she had tried to hide away. They were coming back; she had to get away from here. She had to get control of herself. She ran out of the room. She ran out of the building and into the streets. She didn't know where she was going, nor did she care. She ended up at a park, the same park that so many years ago she had met that boy. She was at the cherry tree. The same tree that also had been the place of their last meeting.

She started to breathe harder. She started to breathe faster. Her heart was racing, pounding hard against her chest. So many feelings started to come up, she wanted it all to stop, but it wouldn't it just kept coming. "No! I have to stop this! I don't want it! Why! After all that I've done to keep them away! I don't want any more pain!" She took out a pocket knife, opened it, and made a thin slice on the top of her wrist. She winced at it. She sighed, she had lost. All that she had tried for so many years was gone, down the drain. She was about to make another thin slice when someone grabbed her wrist. She looked up to see golden eyes. Golden eyes that were pleading with her to stop. She looked away. "Are you really the one?" "Excuse me?" Inuyasha turned her around. His appearance had changed, he had black hair, black eyes, and no dog ears. He looked exactly like the boy she had met all these years ago. "No." she told him. "Are you sure, you have the same mark as that girl did. The diamond shape on your neck, just above your shoulder." "No, I'm not her." "Oh, ok."

Inuyasha changed back to his normal form and walked away. As soon as he was far enough away Kagome turned to face the tree. Her head bent toward the ground, a few tears started to fall on the grass. "I'm sorry." She whispered. Little did she know that Inuyasha had heard her. She started to walk away. He started to follow her. Only to be interrupted by Kikyo. "Oh Inu-baby!" she hugged him (more like tackled him). "Kikyo get off me." "But why Inu-baby?" "Did you forget already? I saw you kissing Naraku." "But Inu he forced me." She whined. "That's crap and you know it." He told her coldly. "Like I said, we're through." Her whiny face contorted into a smirk. "Ok, so I didn't really love you. So what? You're not going to interrupt the plan." "What plan?" "The plan to utterly crush Kagome Higurashi." "WHAT!" "Yep, she should not have escaped eight years ago. My Naru-baby is going to finish what his father started, on the anniversary actually." "What do you…" then it came back, the terrible past that Kagome had gone through. The terrible things that she had seen. He remembered that exactly eight years ago Kagome had witness her entire family get brutally slaughtered. "Kikyo you bi-!" "Oh, not very nice Inuyasha. This was meant to happen. She was supposed to die eight years ago, we're just fulfilling Onigumo's dream, that's all." Inuyasha tried to run around Kikyo, she kept moving to block his way. Frustrated he pushed her out of the way, "don't move Inuyasha, I've got a gun. One more step, and I'll shoot you." He turned around a knocked the gun out of Kikyo's hands. He then ran after Kagome.
