Note: Several, prob a lot, episodes were skipped to get the story moving along nicely. I am glad you are enjoying it and I wish that I was getting reviews from more than just a few people but that is okay. :) I love you all. :D My Little Jordan Monkeys.

So, this chapter follows episode 99 a little tiny bit (only going along with the moments were Inuyasha and the group are shown), however Sesshomaru and his group won't make an appearance...that follows the episode (99)...meaning that they are coming into this chapter with an original conversation (pulled out of my ass, I mean, MIND XP) starting (b/c Sesshomaru needs to see his mate, of course, even though it will be once in a while since he is Sesshomaru and he doesn't particularly like humans...so mate by horniness happened and he currently doesn't like her being his mate but he is stuck with her until she dies [she isn't] or until she is claimed by someone else [not happening] or if he himself dies [also not happening]).

Warning: Has some original conversations in this chapter. Some characters may be out of character. xD Love ya! Ignore any errors!

Chapter Fifty-Two: Seeing Koga and Sesshomaru Again

The gang was walking like they always do. Kagome was dragging her bike around instead of riding it.

"Kagome, if you are going to bring your bike with you all the time, could ya start actually riding it?" Kaori asked her with a hint of annoyance in her tone.

"Sorry but sometimes I don't feel like riding it," Kagome stated.

"Which is all the time. You hardly even ride it," Kaori stated.

"...Because I don't feel like riding it sometimes," Kagome stated again.

"Pfft," Kaori scoffed.

"Kaori is right. Either ride your transportation machine or get rid of it," Inuyasha commented. "It could slow us down."

"No!" Kagome exclaimed. "If we're attacked, it will make escaping easier for me."

Suddenly, Koga ran into them. Almost literally.

"What are you doing here, mutt face?" Koga questioned Inuyasha.

"I was just about to ask you," Inuyasha replied.

"You see, I would be looking for Naraku but I keep seeming to run into you," Koga stated.

"Shut up," Inuyasha said. "I'm the one who's gonna get Naraku." Koga ran past Inuyasha. "Hey!"

Koga held Kaori's hands in his own. "Kaori, so sorry I haven't located Naraku for ya."

"Uh... It's fine, I guess..." Kaori said, pulling her hands away.

Hakkaku and Ginta ran up. "There you are, Koga."

Koga looked at them. "Did you find something to eat?"

"Not exactly," Ginta said nervously.

"You came back empty handed?" Koga questioned.

"Listen up you mangy wolves, you better not be planning on attacking any humans," Inuyasha stated.

"As if we will kill humans," Koga said.

Kagome thought for a second. "You could have some of our food."

"Yeah." Kaori agreed. Kagome handed her a bag of chips which she handed to Koga. "Here you go."

Koga held her hand. "Kaori, I know how much you worry about me."

"Eh... I worry cause you are my friend. Nothing more and nothing less." Kaori sweat dropped. "I really wish he would just...marry that Ayame chick or something and leave me alone before I hurt him."

"We aren't giving our food to him," Inuyasha said, pushing Koga away from Kaori and stepping in front of her and him. Koga was holding the chips Kaori offered.

"She can do what she wants," Koga said, glaring at Inuyasha. "She may be your mate for now but she'll eventually be mine." Koga punched Inuyasha in the face.

"Why you-!" Inuyasha hit him back and the two started fighting over the chips.

Ginta looked at Kagome and Kaori. "Have either of you heard of a guy called Sesshomaru?"

"Yeah, he is Inuyasha's older brother," Kagome said.

"And if you haven't noticed that Kagome smells like Sesshomaru then I will just tell you that she is his mate," Kaori stated.

Kagome blushed. "Stop mentioning that... I want to forget that even happened..."

"Kind of hard for you to do that considering that was the first time you had se-" Kaori's mouth was covered by Sango. Sango pointed at Shippo who was on Miroku's back. "Oops. Nice save though, Sango."

"Inuyasha's brother?!" Hakkaku exclaimed.

"Yeah," Kaori said.

"And he mated with Kagome?!" Ginta exclaimed.

"...Yeah, he did," Kagome stated, frowning a little.

"She loved every minute of her bonding time with him, even though that will never happen again considering that Sesshomaru is very cold hearted and hates humans...with the acceptation of Rin who Kaori is fond of," Miroku commented.

"We didn't need your help explaining anything, Miroku, but thanks anyways," Kaori stated.

"Sesshomaru doesn't seem that cold hearted anymore from that last time we saw him," Kagome stated. "I mean, he allowed us to stay with him so we could play with Rin. He cares about her, even though he doesn't show it."

"He still may be a bit cold hearted though," Sango commented.

"Thanks for your input," Kaori said.

Koga and Inuyasha were still fighting so Kagome made Inuyasha face plant into the ground and Koga ran off, followed by his two friends. After some more walking, the group encountered a demon, getting rid of it, and then stayed with the village that they had apparently helped.


Kaori was standing outside of one of the huts in the village. It was getting late. Kagome walked out of the hut.

"What are you doing?" Kagome asked.

"Just thinking." Kaori looked at her. "I might go give Sesshomaru a little visit. Wanna come along?"

"Uh... I don't know..." Kagome said.

"He won't harm his own mate," Kaori stated. "And it has been long enough for him not to be in heat."

"..." Kagome sighed. "Fine."

"Awesome." Kaori pulled Kagome onto her back and started running off.

"Do you even know where we are going?" Kagome asked. Kaori didn't have the best sense of smell.

"I have a feeling Sesshomaru is in the direction we are going," Kaori stated.

"...We are going to get lost," Kagome said, sighing.

Kaori laughed. "Probably. Just like last time."

"What kind of reassurance is that?" Kagome asked, glaring at the back of Kaori's head.

"It wasn't," Kaori said.

"I was being sarcastic," Kagome said.

As they argued, they soon came across Sesshomaru, Jaken, Rin, and the headed demon thing they had with them.

"RIN!" Kaori shouted in excitement, dropping Kagome and running over to Rin to hug her.

"Big sister Kaori?!" Rin exclaimed. She started to smile really big and hugged Kaori back. "I missed you!"

Kagome had landed on her ass on the ground. "You don't know how to put people down gently, do you?"

"Sorry," Kaori said.

"Neko," Sesshomaru said to Kaori, looking at her.

"Uh, yes?" Kaori asked, tilting her head and letting go of Rin.

"Have you been watching my mate closely?" he asked her.

"...Yes. Never let her out of my sight... Except that one time but she's still alive so that all worked out!" Kaori rubbed the back of her head nervously. "He actually cares about Kagome a little bit then?"

"If my mate is killed, I will kill you," Sesshomaru stated, glaring at Kaori.

"Well then," Kaori said. "Good to know..."

Kagome blinked from where she sat on the ground. "Um.. What just happened?"

"Are you staying?" Rin asked.

"I wish I, erm, we could but we were just quickly visiting," Kaori said, hugging Rin again.

"Awww..." Rin frowned and pouted.

"Don't worry. Next time, I will stay longer for sure. It's just... Inuyasha doesn't know where I am." Kaori kissed Rin's head. "Be careful and stay be either Sesshomaru or Jaken."

"Okay!" Rin exclaimed.

Kaori went over to Kagome and helped her off the ground and onto her back. Kagome blinked again. "Well," Kagome said. "Hi and bye Rin. I was...in shock so, um, sorry for not saying anything to you."

Rin giggled. "It's okay."

"See you next time. Bye...Sesshomaru." Kagome hid her face in Kaori's back as Sesshomaru looked in her direction. "Take care of yourself and Rin, I guess..." Kaori soon started running with Kagome still on her back. Eventually, they were back at the village. "That was a very quick visit," Kagome commented.

"Well... it took a long time to get there and we didn't tell anyone we were leaving," Kaori said.

Suddenly, Kagome was back on the ground and Kaori was in Inuyasha's arms.

"Where the hell did you go?!" Inuyasha exclaimed. "I was about to hunt you down."

"We gave Sesshomaru a quick visit so I could see Rin for a lil' bit," Kaori revealed.

"You could've told me," Inuyasha said. "I was worried."

"You always worry about me." Kaori rolled her eyes and smiled. She hugged him. "I love you."

"I love you too," Inuyasha said. He kissed her.


Morning came and the gang was leaving the village. They weren't too far away when Inuyasha stopped walking, causing all of them to stop walking.

"I don't like the smell of this," Inuyasha said.

Koga soon arrived and stood in front of Kaori. "Hello Kaori."

"Hi, Koga... Nice to see you...again." Kaori stared at him. "So...?"

"Get lost already!" Inuyasha yelled.

Koga pulled out some flowers and weeds. "I wanted to thank Kaori for the food from yesterday."

"Wow, they are actually really nice." Kaori took them from him.

Kagome looked at them. "Are those daisies? They look like daisies to me."

"You are taking his flowers?!" Inuyasha exclaimed.

"See ya around." Koga was soon running off again.

"That was quick," Shippo commented.

"He just wanted to give Kaori flowers," Sango said.

"What if I gave you better flowers? Would you get rid of those?" Inuyasha asked Kaori.

Kaori blushed slightly and laughed. "Probably."

"I'll get you some right now then!" Inuyasha ran off to find flowers.

"I never thought Inuyasha would go pick flowers," Miroku commented.

Kagome laughed. "He'd do anything for Kaori...and do anything for Kaori to get rid of something Koga gave her apparently."

"Yeah, no kidding," Sango commented.

"He is so adorable~" Kaori cooed. Inuyasha came back with a lot of weeds but also a lot of flowers. Kaori naturally gave Kagome the flowers Koga had given her to take the flowers Inuyasha got. She kissed him. "Thank you." Inuyasha smiled really big.


I kind of rushed at the end a bit because I want to sleep and I wanted to post this chapter today. I am gonna go sleep now. My canker sores (yes, I have 2 now which sucks ass) are bothering me a lot so I am gonna sleep off the pain (only to wake and feel the pain again... Yay).

I love you. I hope you loved the chapter. Bye!
