"What? Why not?" Inuyasha asked hearing his request.
"I just don't want them to worry, please." Kalim asked him. He had just explained how everything he had before, is now gone with that shard, and he had asked to keep it a secret from everyone else.
"Feh, fine." Inuyasha said in that tone he was known to give.
"Thanks." Kalim said with a smile, Inuyasha started to walk away when Kalim stopped him again, "What is it?" Inuyasha asked him.
"Well...as you saw...I kind of can't fight..." Kalim started, "So I was wondering..."
Inuyasha interrupted, "We start tomorrow." Kalim smiled saying thanks in his own way, he decided to follow Inuyasha back to where everyone else was. He knew he had to keep everything a secret from them, and was hoping Inuyasha would keep that secret as well.
"Well Kalim you seem like you are doing better, you are walking perfectly." Sango commented.
"Yeah, it was only a temporary thing, I guess I was just too sore or something." Kalim shrugged, placing a hand on his injured shoulder. He tried to remember where the injury came from but, as it would be, he had no memories.
The day quickly turned to night, and the group was sitting around in a building thanks to Miroku's 'exorcising' of mansions.
"Hey Kalim, mind if I talk with you outside for a bit?" Kalim shook his head.
"Not at all, Kagome." he said with a smile, they both withdrew from the room and went outside out of Inuyasha's hearing range.
"What is it Kagome?" he asked her as they stood near a tree, Kalim leaning against it.
"Well I wanted to know...I wanted to know why you made Kaya cry, and told her you wouldn't be going back, because you will go back right?" she asked him, and he nodded.
"I just didn't want her to wait on me, I don't belong there. I want her to find the one she will love forever who actually does belong in her time, in your time. I will be going back, but only briefly, I remember I had a reason... I just don't remember what the reason is." he thought for a minute.
"Don't you want to pay respects to your mother who died there?" Kagome asked him.
"Mother? What mother? How was I in your time for so long again?" He was now getting confused from fragments of memory being lost, while others remained intact.
"Do you really not remember?" Kagome asked, "She took care of you in my time, you lived right across the street from me." He clutched his head again.
"What's wrong Kalim?" Kagome asked.
"Oh, nothing." he answered, just a head pain.
"So, you really weren't attracted to Kaya like I thought, were you?" Kagome asked him continuing their prior conversation.
"Kaya? Who's that?" Kalim asked confused, he had lost another portion of him memory.
"Kalim? We were just talking about her..." Kagome explained, "That head pain! That must be him losing his memories, what is causing that to happen?"
Kalim sat down for a minute trying to remember what was happening, but couldn't put the pieces together, "I have no idea what you are talking about." The whole conversation about her was lost from his memory as well.
"Let's go inside." Kagome suggested, "Oh Kalim, how long will it be until you forget us? I must try to figure out how to stop it before it happens."
Kalim went to where he would be sleeping for the night, and as he lay down on his back he thought to the conversation that he remembered, "Who is Kaya? Were we really talking about someone by that name?" he asked himself. He thought back to the other time.
He was at the mall with Kagome, and three people appeared saying hi, but they left and he remembered an exchange of words with him and another. Then he thought to when he was outside, someone was talking beside him.
"Why are you out here all alone?" he remembered a female voice asking, but there was no image of someone next to him in his mind.
"It is going to rain." he smiled at her, "Rain makes me feel at ease, it calms me greatly." he explained.
"Gah! Who's voice is that?" he held his head trying to remember, a faint picture popped into his head only for a second before disappearing, "Who or what is messing with my head? With my memories?"
Day came and Kalim awoke stretching, he knew he had to be ready for training with Inuyasha, he walked outside.
"Ready Kalim?" Inuyasha asked jumping down from the tree.
"Yup." Kalim nodded with a smile.
"Okay then, remember, I am not going to be too easy on you. You need to learn how to read attacks, the only way to do that is to be pitted in a fight. It has to be a serious one." Kalim nodded understanding everything Inuyasha said to him.
"I will try my hardest." Kalim said, and at that moment, they both charged at eachother.

Uh-oh, looks like more of Kalim's memories are disappearing. Why is this happening? Is it tied to the jewel shard Naraku stole? (Don't ask me, I am not sure how I will make this turn out.). It looks like Kalim starts his training, will he be able to last through Inuyasha's harsh training? Find out when I figure out how to put this all together...heh heh, don't hate me for the cliff-hanger...please? I put out a second one on the same day, love me for it?
Off-note to the fic, I really should focus on school more, after failing a test. I will be focusing a little more so that is one reason I will be slowing down chapters and why I put out two, just to make up for not posting much in the future.
Ja Ne!
