Disclaimer: I was sick, there's no way I can own them. If I did, they'd be sick too. *crys*
{AN: I know, I was sick. But, the doctor called and said something that made Fire happy, ITS ONLY A VIRAL INFECTION! *grins happily* this means that I am allowed out of my room! I was so happy I was like, YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! My mom and brother have both decided on my tonsils fate, removal and disposal. As soon as the swelling of the viral infection goes down I will be up and kicking my brother in the butt for calling me a bitch in front of all of you guyz! Jeez, kicking me while I'm in the other room, very brave . I don't think he realized that I'd read what he wrote once I was dubbed "safe for exposure". The worse part is that he's my OLDER brother. You'd think he'd be more worried about me and not my password…. *sigh* anyways, I want to thank EVERYONE for their words of comfort and their ideas on what to do to help me. The ibuprofen worked wonders, I have to say. And the honey. Sadly I didn't have any tea, but, the honey on bread worked just as well! Ice cream made it worse though, so I stayed away from that stuff.
I'm kinda satisfied with what he took from my recording (it wasn't my cell phone, it was a little machine thingy….Fire just didn't know what it was called…. And neither do I…hehe) I have also decided to give everyone a rainbow Youko cookie, as thanks for all of your good wishes! *hands out cookies on a HUGE plate!* but, I'm going to answer them again, sorta, and if theres something I wanted to comment about in what you all said, then I will :D
As for the reviewer responses…all of you are so wonderful, and I want to just list off all of your names and thank you personally!

Kagome sighed and looked around the clearing around the well in an upset mood. "Kagome, don't worry. Im sure he's fine and that he has found Inuyasha by now."
Shippo sighed and pouted from on top of Kilala's head. 'I can't believe I gave out Youko's plan!' he thought angrily, grumbling under his breath.
Sango glanced at Shippo amusedly before looking towards Kagome's worried expression again. "Really, you shouldn't worry Kagome. Youko can take care of himself!"
"She is right lady Kagome, Youko can take care of himself. He is a youkai after all…" Miroku added, looking over at Kagome with his trade mark smile.
"I guess so, I just cant help but worry…"
Miroku smiled at Kagome's face. "Just who are you worried about Kagome? Youko, or Inuyasha?"
Kagome looked up, surprised at such a question. But, seeing the look on his face Kagome flushed uncertainly. "Both of course!"
"I think you are more worried about Youko than Inuyasha, Kagome. When we woke up he was the first one you saw missing, wasn't he?" Miroku stated, grinning widely.
"Uh, b-but….That is to say-…." Kagome looked around to all her friends faces. Sango looked mad and yet….amused, Miroku had that lecherous look on his face, and Shippo had some sort of happy face. 'What's the deal with them!?'
"Gah!" Kagome yelled, throwing her hands in the air before turning and picking up her bag. "You know what, I'm leaving! I'll be back when I can. I have tests the next two weeks!"
Miroku took a step forward to help her over the rim of the well but a swift bunk on the head from Sango's hirikotsu froze him in his spot before he fell backwards to sleep…peacefully until the knot on his head dissipated. "I don't think so hoshi." Sango growled dangerously before looking up and smiling at the nervous Kagome. "Don't worry Kagome. We'll keep a look out for Youko, and Inuyasha. Have a nice time at home!"
Kagome laughed nervously before nodding and waving goodbye to her friends happily. "I'll stop by after a few days and see if they've shown up, promise! And I'll bring you your pocky Shippo!"
Shippo looked up from his pouting and grinned happily. "Thanks Kagome!"
"No problem! Bye Bye everyone!!!"
And with those parting words Kagome leapt into the black darkness, only to be swallowed up by a sparkly rainbow that would transport her to her own time.

Kagome landed softly on the ground and smiled happily. 'Made it.' "Mom! Grandpa! Souta! I'm-"
Her yell was cut off as the door to the building shielding the well from view was opened quickly.
"What are you doing down there!?" Kagome blinked once, then twice, as a flashlight was shone directly in her eyes.
"Hey, can't see here." Kagome said pointedly, shielding her eyes from the harsh glare. "Why do you have a flash light anyways? It's the middle of the day!"
"Urameshi, calm down!" Kagome tilted her head, 'Now why does that name sound so familiar?'
"Damn it Kuwabara!" the voice from earlier yelled out, and Kagome sighed in relief as the flashlight was moved away from her face and turned off. While it might have been daylight outside it was extremely dark in the well house.
"The least you could do is offer her a hand, Yusuke." 'Another voice…hm, this one sounds more calm then the others…'
"Tch, fine!" Kagome gasped in surprise as a human hand grabbed her arm and yanked her out of the well forcefully, nearly tearing her arm out of its socket!
"Hey! Jeez, a bit of a warning next time! And I didn't need your help, thank you. And what are you guys doing in here!? It's off-limits to any visitors!"
"Kagome-chan?" Kagome looked up in surprise and confusion.
Standing in front of her was a dark shadowy figure, but it looked slightly familiar. "I can't see you…who are you?"
"Come outside then! I'm not going in that dirty old hut!" the female voice yelled girlishly, and Kagome got the distinct impression that she was shacking her head furiously while dancing from foot to foot. 'Now who do I know that would do that…'
"Come on, I'm tired of being in here anyways!" the voice she had labeled as Yusuke's exclaimed, a hand grabbing her arm roughly and forcing her out of the well house.
"Wait! My bag!" Kagome turned to try and grab her bag only to be grabbed by another large hand.
"Kurama has your bag. Don't worry, little lady!" Kagome blushed slightly before nodding. 'Little lady huh? What a cute nickname!' Kagome thought giddily, before she saw just who had called her 'little lady'. Kagome looked at the sky in consternation. 'Really? I was hoping for a more…handsome guy to call me little lady…what l-' her thoughts were interrupted when she saw the red headed boy carrying her bag.
She was luckily able to keep her mouth closed even as sparks of shock swept through her mind and body. Following closely behind those shocks was a heated blush. Quickly Kagome looked away from the handsome red head and instead focused on the girl whose voice was so familiar to her.
'Hm…brown hair, brown eyes, my height…..Who do I know that is-OH!' "KEIKO-CHAN!!!" Kagome yelled, running away from the now startled boys and straight at the ecstatic girl.
Keiko laughed and hugged Kagome back. "How have you been!? I haven't seen you in forever!" Keiko yelled, pulling back and then hugging Kagome again. The two of them started jumping around in a small circle while the boys all watched on in surprise and astonishment.
'Fox, do you sense that?' Kurama looked to the side and nodded to Hiei, a short fire apparition with gravity defying hair.
'Yes, I have noticed. It seems familiar to me.'
'Besides the fact that it is miko ki? The strongest I have felt since the old days hundreds of years ago?' Hiei asked, arching an eyebrow at Kurama before looking back to the two simpering and babbling girls walking towards the main house, Kagome totally forgetting about her bag.
'Yes,' Kurama chuckled, watching the human girl closely, 'besides that fact. Her energy, her internal energy is very familiar to me, both of me. Youko is restless for some reason…'
Hiei arched an eyebrow as Kurama held a hand to his forehead, as if he had a headache. 'Something wrong fox?'
'Nothing you need concern yourself with.'
Hiei grunted and nodded before running and taking a nice spot in the largest tree in the area, more commonly known as the goshinboku.
Kurama smiled softly before turning and looking at the arguing humans. "Perhaps we should go and see what the two ladies are up to?"
Kuwabara nodded, smiling happily, while Yusuke huffed but walked towards the main building anyways. 'I wonder why she seems so…familiar to me?'
{AN: well, what do all of you think? I know my cute little girl and Youko-animal form aren't in this chapter. But, I tried to make it pleasing and longish as an apology for being sick for so long. I still have my tonsils, and when I get them taken out I will have a WHOLE DAY to write instead of the measily two hours I get! Lol, SO I will mostlikely post more than two chapters that day, whenever it is….
And, all of you get rainbow Youko cookies! AND you also get BUBBLEGUM Youko cookies! *grins* yes, two of them for each of you! Its another apology, I like to think! Lmao, anyways,….the reason there is no little girl is because there are some issues that COSMIC-LOVER and I need to solve, if only she'd look at her inbox! Lol, oh, and I want to thank everyone again for your wishes of good health! They made me feel so loved! *smiles happily and hugs readers* thankys guys! Especially to darkfyredragon35!!! Your ibuprofen idea was a really good one!
Anywho, I hope all of you review!}
