Walk on through a red parade.

They took Kagome and her son to a festival. Sango and Kikyo agreed that Kagome needed to see things, smell things and bond with her son in hopes she would remember something, anything.

"So Inuyasha is the half-brother?" Kagome asked as Kikyo and Sango dressed her in fine silk and layers of sheer fabric.

"Correct" Kikyo tied the sash tight on Kagome,

"And you and I were chosen, Mikos?"

Kikyo looked at her "Yes, and we agreed"

Kagome chewed on her lip, and Kikyo sighed "Ask."

"You're sure I, that I um loved, him?"

"You cared deeply for him, even called him brother growing up," Kikyo said calmly "And it grew" She stood back and looked at Kagome "His father tried his best to avoid what we all knew what happen."

Kikyo then looked at Sango and the back to Kagome "I will take some of the blame."

Kagome then looked at her confused "Blame? But what did you do?"

"I loved Inuyasha and put it in their fathers head that Inuyasha was not strong enough to overpower you, you needed a stronger male."

"But deep down we all knew you wanted it to be him" Sango added,

"So their father switched us, and you gave birth to his son."

Kagome blushed. They had already told her the whole story once. It was hard for her to understand because she didn't remember any of it.

"Aunt Kikyo" They heard Kagome's son from outside "Are yall ready? Uncle Inuyasha is pacing"

Kagome went to the door and opened it and looked down at the boy "Sorry my fault."

He beamed up at her "You look pretty."

She smiled at him, and he offered her his hand. She looked at it before taking it, and he pulled her away.

He took her to every booth, made her try all kinds of food and even tickled her with his power, but nothing seemed to jar her, though she was enjoying herself.

"How long do you think its gonna take?" Inuyasha asked with his son on his shoulders,

"We can't force it Inuyasha" Miroku spoke,

"She may never remember" Sango added, "But I think she will be a mother regardless."

"K, its fine with me if she doesn't remember the bastard."

"Aunt Kikyo"

Everyone looked at InuHōseki "Look, bows and arrows" He pointed to the bows and arrows with the targets that were nearby. Kikyo walked up to him "That's a good idea" She then looked at Kagome "Come, we will see if you still have skill."

InuHoski wanted his mother to remember. Even though her scent was all he knew of her, he knew she was his mother. Without a doubt.

Everyone followed and watched as Kikyo showed Kagome how to shoot.

"I cant wait to see" InuHoseki smiled,

"K, don't get too excited I doubt she will even know how to hold the bow up."

Kagome glared at him and then became determined. She picked up the bow and aimed. But suddenly a cold feeling went up her spine, and she gasped as images came to her mind's eyes and sound to her mind's ear.

She let go of the arrow as another cold spasm went up her back, and it flew forward.

"Miko"

She shook her head slightly, and her eyes glided up, that's when she saw him. He was standing there with her glowing arrow in his hands. Sesshomaru turned it into ash.

"Father!" InuHoski smiled seeing his father return.

"Kagome?" Sango shook her "Are you ok?"

Kagome looked at her "I saw something" She whispered,

"What?" Sango asked,

"Naraku"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at her. It was the way she said his name, so firm and sure.

"I remember Naraku."

She then looked at her hands "I killed him" She then looked up at Sesshomaru, then back at Kikyo and Inuyasha "I really am a Miko of the jewel."

Kikyo nodded.

Kagome started to breath faster, that meant everything they had told her was true. She was from here. She slowly turned back to look at the boy and his father.

Sesshomaru walked up and looked at her white and red dress, and she felt uneasy under his gaze.

Kagome stepped back.

His eyes raised up to meet hers "Do you know who I am?"

She blinked "Um, Sesshomaru, Lord of the West?"

"Kagome do you remember me?" Sango asked,

She shook her head "The only thing I saw was Naraku, I killed Naraku."

"Why did you bring her to such a place?" Sesshomaru then asked,

"Its a festival" Inuyasha spoke, "Unlike you, we like to have a little fun."

"We were trying to jog her memory" Kikyo added,

"It seems the arrows worked somewhat" Miroku added,

"It is unsafe" Sesshomaru stated "Naraku has been reborn, you will return to the West" Sesshomaru turned,

"When you say you?" Sango asked,

"All of you may come, I can assure you his soul will not rest till the one who took his life is found."

Kikyo nodded "He is right, for all, we know Naraku could be walking through this festival, and we wouldn't know it."

"I would know" Kagome spoke, "Id feel him."

Sesshomaru eyed her "That is judgment I would not bet my life on as you can not even recall your own son, now come"

Kagome's face harden with a mixture of anger and hurt feelings, she could not understand how she could have ever loved the guy, he had been nothing but cold and mean to her since she got here.

"Kagome"

She shook her head, and her heart skipped a slight beat as he said her name. She didn't know why.

"It is for the best, and maybe you will gain more memories," Sango said softly. Kagome could only nod as they all slowly followed the demon Lord back West were it all started.

She didn't trust him or the unexplained feelings she was having.

Kagome looked back at the festival. For a fleeting moment, she thought about running back to the well, but she was now sure that the well would never return her. It was unclear but she had a feeling that she did belong here.
