Return of Sadness, Kikyo comes home!
____________________________

"Everyone stand back,"Inuyasha yelled. "Who on earth could this be,"Kagome whispered to Inuyasha. "I don't have a clue. This could be the work of Naraku."Inuyasha said. A big large man walked from the shadows, "You have no right to speak of Naraku vile humans." "Who the hell are you bastard?"Inuyasha asked angrily. "Ryokan, but that does not matter, I am here to destroy you." "What the hell is with this guy, Kagome, you and Shippo get out of here I will take care of him!" Inuyasha threw the first punch waiting for Kagome to run for safety. The large man wavered and fell. Inuyasha was just too much for him, he had not anticipated a fight and he was not a fighter and yet Naraku had blackmailed him and said his dogs were plenty to handle Inuyasha and his size was intimidating but he didn't think so because Naraku wasn't afraid. "Come on tough guy,"Inuyasha yelled rearing back for another punch. "Please don't hurt me,"the man whistled and his dogs and him retreated.

"Kagome, Inuyasha took him out with one punch."Shippo said. "Yes I knew he could do it, I don't understand though what Naraku has against Inuyasha."Kagome said. "Kikyo is that you?No it can't be, who are you girl?."an ominous voice said from the darkness. "Who are you, no that young boy called you Kagome, so you must be Inuyasha's new fling, I say you certainly do look like his old one Kikyo." "Naraku, how dare you, leave us alone, why do you torment Inuyasha what crimes has he committed against you?" Kagome asked practically yelling. "That is not your concern but just the same don't be like him and get in my way. Tell Inuyasha I will get him." Then the voice was gone as Inuyasha raced to them to see if they were okay. "I guess I should walk you to your house and walk Shippo home."Inuyasha said. Kagome looked a bit disappointed. "Are you up to it Inuyasha, are you okay?"Kagome asked. "He looks fine to me,"said Shippo. "Yeah the runt is right for once."Inuyasha laughed. "I don't know what you think is funny, you could have been seriously hurt or worse killed, this guy Naraku has to be stopped."Kagome frantically said. "Kagome this is not your worry, its mine let me worry please,"Inuyasha pleaded. "Wow he said please, I didn't know you had manners Inuyasha!"Shippo giggled. "Why you......Owwwwww."Inuyasha was stopped before he could harm little Shippo. "What did you do that for Kagome?"Inuyasha whined. Kagome just turned around and walked up the steps to the shrine. "Kagome wait!!!!"Inuyasha exclaimed. Kagome just kept walking till she reached the door. Inuyasha grabbed her and hugged her. "Don't worry Kagome I will protect you and I will get Naraku."Inuyasha said sweetly. Kagome sighed. "You don't get it Inuyasha you won't ever. I will always worry that is just how I am, I wish you would let me help, I am not Kikyo you know everyone seems to think so I wish they would realize I am my own person in looks and everything else. Who is she Inuyasha, what was she?"Kagome asked on the verge of tears. "Kagome don't cry, I know you're not Kikyo I know who you are, you shouldn't worry."Inuyasha said. With that he made a hasty departure to walk Shippo home.

Kagome soaked in the tub for a while. "Tells me not to worry but won't tell me who she is, I will just have to find out!!!" "Great now I am really talking to myself."Kagome said to herself. (the next day) Kagome decided to go on a mission to find out who this Kikyo is. She asked some seniors and juniors. They sure did have alot to say about her all good of course. She graduated last year top of her class was a priestess an expert archer took care of her little sister Kaede then disappeared. She took care of so many people she was an aspiring healer. 'Great Kagome thought.' She got alot of you look like her you know and then when I went to the school library to look her up in the yearbook I was shocked, she was beautiful and yet sad looking. Under her name her quote read:Normal. How odd Kagome thought, must be a hidden message. She decided to look up Inuyasha in the book. He was there all right in the Junior section looking goofy. His hair was pulled back and looked black, I thought he had silver hair, Sesshoumaru does. Oh well she thought as she put the book away now I need to find out the relationship of Kikyo and Inuyasha. (After school) The day was pretty slow and Inuyasha of course kept his distance he did manage to take her ramen, Shippo whined but Kagome promised to give it to him tomorrow. She picked up Souta and noticed someone was following them. "Excuse me miss, you dropped this back there."A little girl said handing Kagome her notebook. "Thank you,"Kagome said taking it. "Oh my you look like my big sister."The girl gasped. "Let me guess Kikyo, right?"Kagome said agitated. "Yes I am sorry I can tell you must get told that alot. My name is Kaede."Kaede told her. "Oh perfect then, Kaede can you tell me what the relationship was between Inuyasha and Kikyo?"Kagome asked. "Sure they were in love and dating at the end of school this summer."Kaede said. "Oh."Kagome said looking down. "Well gotta run."Kaede said.
*****
Inuyasha decided to go to the store after practice and pick up some cds that Kagome liked. He wondered about this dance music. When he got back to his place he played one and heard a very good one "The way you walk the way you understand me ............I want you just, just the way you are,"The voice sang. Made him think alot about his relationship with Kagome. She is right though she is not Kikyo. I still love Kikyo though. I don't want to hurt Kagome, I am confused. I guess its time to tell Kagome who Kikyo is and why Naraku hates me even though I didn't do anything to him. Inuyasha listened to the rest of the song remembering Kikyo and thinking of Kagome. He fell asleep with one name on his mind and lips. "Kagome."
*****
Kagome slept fitfully that night dreaming of Inuyasha. She walked into a forrest she saw Inuyasha walking in front of her she stopped to call out but just as she did he stopped and Kagome saw someones arms around him. Kikyo. The embraced and kissed. Then Naraku's voice came in, "I told you not to get in my way." Something hit Kagome in the back and went through her as she fell Inuyasha turned around and saw her. Kagome cried out in a whispered tone,"Inuyasha." Then she woke up she was actually crying. Her phone started ringing. She looked at her clock it was eleven pm. Who on earth was calling she thought to herself. "Hello."Kagome whispered into the phone. "Meet me tomorrow at the Sakura Gardens before practice." Click. "Inuyasha." Why does he want to meet me there tomorrow? She wondered. She went back to sleep this time it was dreamless.
*****

Inuyasha did not know why he called her last night so late and asked her to meet him here when he could have just walked her home and they could have talked all the way to practice. "Inuyasha, are you well?"came a voice behind him. He turned around. "Kikyo."
*****
Kagome hurried to drop Souta off, wondering why Inuyasha didn't just walk with her home, she barely saw him throughout the day though. He must be busy she thought. She ran because she wanted to hear what he had to say. She went through the entrance and didn't see him. She walked around for fifteen minutes, this place is so big, where on earth is he. She decided to walk back to the front and hopefully he would be there but on her way she noticed something strange. Silver hair! Its him it must be, she walked closer only till she saw he was kissing someone! Kagome was instantly upset she wondered why he was doing this to her, she ran past them because that was the only way out. She ran all the way home and to her room where she cried.
*****
Inuyasha felt a breeze pass him but the wind wasn't blowing, it brought him back to reality. "Kikyo what are you doing?" "I think its obvious, but I must know why you betrayed me Inuyasha so I have been following you." Kikyo said to him with bitterness. "I never betrayed you, it wasn't me, I would never betray you Kikyo." Inuyasha told her. "I have longed to see you Inuyasha and let you know of my undying hatred for you how is it I can believe you?"Kikyo asked. "I swear to you, Kaede told me what happened and then Naraku showed up. I never stopped....."Inuyasha began but suddenly stopped thinking of Kagome. "Never stopped what?"Kikyo asked. "I have to meet someone I have to go I almost forgot about them."Inuyasha mumbled leaving. Kikyo yelled out to him,"Is this person more important to you than me?" Inuyasha turned around. Kikyo saw the look on his face that told her yes. "I can't change the past Kikyo forgive me."Inuyasha told her as he was leaving. He hoped Kagome was waiting and didn't see them. He waited by the front gate for an hour before going to the club, she wasn't there. Something must have happened to her.
*****

Kagome couldn't stop crying. She saw it all and finally she knew firsthand what their relationship was only she regreted it. Damn me for being nosy she scolded herself. Its pathetic to cry about him he isn't your boyfriend she scolded herself more. She went into the bathroom to wash her face. 'Knock Knock.'"Kagome?" It was Sango. "Sango what are you doing here?" "Miroku called me over to converse over things about Naraku and when I got here he said you ran in the house and looked upset, I thought you could use some girl time to talk."Sango told her. Kagome let her in and told her what she saw. "I am sorry Kagome, what a pig he is. I am just so sorry."Sango soothed her. "Thank you Sango but I guess I had to find out sooner or later." Kagome said. 'Knock Knock' "Kagome may I come in?"Miroku asked. "Yes."Kagome replied. Miroku came in,"Is eveything okay?" "She just had a bad experience that is all."Sango reassured him. She whispered to him,"She saw Inuyasha kissing another girl." Miroku whispered back,"Kikyo?" "Yeah."Sango told him. "Sango you told him didn't you?" Kagome griped. "Well he is your friend too he cares Kagome."Sango told her. "Sure only when he can cop a feel."Kagome said. "Nice description of me, I really do care Kagome,"Miroku groaned. They heard Kagome's mom hollar to her. "Kagome someone is here to see you." "Send them up mom."She yelled to her. The footsteps were getting closer, hmm I wonder who it could be Kagome wondered. The door pushed open. Everyone gasped.
