She had met them...originally it was fine as just them...but soon he wanted to be more than just them.

(Present)

Eyes were wide in horror as a series of horrible events began to take place. Right before Kagome's eyes, the little boy she had bonded with over the two, going on three weeks that she'd been at Capsule Corps, started to fade in and out of existence. The Dragon was still waiting for the next two wishes, and looking at the boy who was now almost completely gone from sight, she screamed loudly. "WHAT DID YOU DO!?" She turned her eyes onto Bulma, a heavy wind began to pick up and another cry filled her ears.

"GOHAN!"

Kagome looked back again, this time it was Videl who was in sorrow and fear. Looking between her infant daughter and her husband who was lost. Not sure of what to do, he could only hold the two close in his arms as they started to fade and become translucent.

"OH KAMI! GOKU! MY BABY!" Chichi cried out, throwing her arms tightly around Goten's shoulders as he clung tightly to her clothes, scared to let her go.

Goten cried out to the woman holding him, "Mama!"

"Dad~!"

Hearing the barely audible voice of Trunks, Kagome turned to stare at Vegeta. He looked down at his hands, their translucent glow had him looking fearful for the first time since Kagome had met the man. A glow surrounded her and she knew the Jewel was working to protect her from the magic of the Dragon Balls, or...Shenron. She looked to the dragon and made her way towards him as she watched Bulma's legs give out. "I have two wishes...Shenron..."

"WHAT ARE YOUR WISHES?"

"Take me back a year before Vegeta was supposed to come to Earth, with the means, and knowledge required to find him again! My second wish, I want...for the first child I have...to be the very same, soul and body, of Trunks, the little boy you are erasing from history!"

"..."

"CAN YOU DO THAT!?"

Bulma screeched, "NO! HE'S MY SON! YOU CAN'T TAKE EVERYTHING FROM ME!"

"You were going to throw him away! You don't have a right to yell at me for the consequences of your own spiteful wish!"

'Shikon no Miko, I can grant these wishes~'

'No! Stay out of this you damn Jewel!' She waited in annoyance for the Dragon to respond, finally, Trunks who was still fading, became a glowing orb and shot forward, embedding itself within her womb. Her eyes furrowed a bit, but then realization struck her like a knife.

"YOUR WISHES WILL BOTH BE GRANTED! THE CHILD YOU CARRY WILL BE BORN WITH THE SOUL OF YOUNG TRUNKS! HE WILL NOT BE OF THE SAME GENES, BUT THE SAME SOUL! FOR YOUR OTHER WISH, YOU WILL KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!"

And just like that, light shined welcomingly around the large group, though unwanted all the same...and then...there was darkness.

(AGE: 761...SIXTEEN...YEARS AGO)

Kagome looked around in slight annoyance. Around a month ago, she woke up alone on the Capsule Corp lawn. She had checked for any auras that were around, and had been successful in finding two, Bulma's and Dr. Briefs. She had been wary of Bulma, but if the wish had come true, there would be no memories of herself, Vegeta or Trunks.

Since she had nowhere to stay, Bulma had been a completely different person than the woman she'd met before. She had opened her doors, to her, and they stayed up late nights talking about Bulma and her current on again, off again boyfriend. Kagome new of course that she couldn't beat around the bush forever, so...she had made a request of Bulma.

"Can you build for me...a spaceship?"

Kagome subconsciously placed her hand on her abdomen as she looked at the machine, it was huge, but incomplete. However, it had, only been a month since she'd asked, and Bulma was more than happy to try her hands at the task. In fact, her biggest problem had been what the ship would be made of and that was easily fixed when she came across Goku's old space pod, though not a lot was left from it. Bulma hadn't explained what the metal was from, but Kagome was not stupid, and had figured it out herself.

"Kagome!"

Turning, Kagome smiled, it was hard hiding what she'd done to this girl, but she seemed happy all the same, so Kagome would live on with the knowledge that she had already hurt her once before, and wasn't about to do it again. "What is it?"

"I'm calling a break for the rest of the day, I have a reunion to go to and I wanted you to come with me. Go get dressed!" Bulma yelled before she herself disappeared back inside.

Kagome couldn't understand, she had taken Kagome shopping almost immediately upon Kagome's request for lodging and her slightly modified story, well...her original...story. The one she had the first time she had woken up there. That same story then, had her locked in a room wearing her husband's baggy clothes, now she had a large guest room and her own clothes. It was a completely different girl.

"So I get to meet everyone again?" Kagome smiled, "That's fine...I have time..." she glanced down at her belly that hadn't yet started to show, but she knew it would start soon..."...a little bit, at least."

-x-x-x-

Dressed in a pair of spandex black capris that went just past her knee's, and a blue button up shirt with quarter length sleeves, a pair of white tinny shoes on her feet.

"Why not do something with your hair?"

Kagome who was lounging in the back of Bulma's cruiser, ran her fingers through her hair and smiled, "I like my hair, and nothing needs to be done to it."

"...hm...if you say so. I get bored when I have nothing to do, and end up almost always getting my hair done up somehow or my nails done, usually both."

Kagome smiled, 'Trust me...I know. In the short time I've known you...you've had at least five hairstyles...I do like this one though,' Kagome eyed the blue hair that was full and lush in its looks. Bulma had actually been close to cutting it all off when Kagome mentioned how she liked it long, so she ended up just restyling it.

"Oh, were here!"

Kagome peered out the window and was surprised to see a mini island coming into view below them. "Where are we?"

"Kame house, Master Roshi lives here. He has trained all of the guys one time or another...I think you'll like him since you always go one about training and such."

Kagome blushed, 'Not as much as others, I'm sure. Besides, I'm not really talking about training for me, I only asked for a Gravity Chamber in the space ship for Vegeta, if...I find him at all. I have all sorts of things in my head, the Dragon wasn't wrong when he said all I would need to Know would be there when my wish was granted, but it's jumbled...and makes zero sense.'

"Hey Guys~!"

Kagome felt the cruiser land as Bulma yelled out the window to her friends, everyone came running out to meet Bulma and Kagome almost wanted to duck inside and hide.

"BULMA!"

Kagome listened as three voices called to the Blue haired girl. She recognized only Krillin who, of course, didn't know her. No one did...she knew the dragon hadn't helped her keep her memories...no, that was the Shikon. The Shikon had kept the Dragon's Magic off of her, with the exception of her own wishes, in other words, she had retained all of her memories while everyone else lost them as if Vegeta hadn't ever come, and thus, everything after never took place. It still hurt watching all of the children fade, Videl...Kagome didn't know Videl, but the fear in her eyes, staring up at Gohan, and looking down at her daughter, tears terrorizing her cheeks as she watched everything fade from existence.

"Hey, who's that?"

Kagome who had been watching as the old man Roshi got his truffles thrown at him for ogling Bulma's chest, blushed at being suddenly seen by Krillin and the turtle next to him. Climbing out of the cruiser, Kagome smiled, "nice to meet you all, my name is Kagome. I'm Bulma's friend and, at the current moment, housemate."

"Housemate?" Krillin asked as he looked at Bulma.

"Yeah, she has no family here. If the story she told me is true, she woke up in a different dimension...or something. Right?"

Kagome nodded, 'yes...the first time I woke up on your lawn, it was different dimension, now it's the same dimension, though still not mine, and a different time.' Kagome sighed, "I am trying to get a space ship built...to find someone..." her hand dropped once more to her womb, closing her eyes, she felt like crying. "...he's extremely important to me...and I won't let anyone stand in the way of me finding him."

Bulma smiled, "...so is he your husband?"

Kagome shook her head, "no, he's more than that...he's my mate. You can get a divorce and never hear from your husband again...but a mate can not be ignored, and will never leave you. He is bound to you...through time and death. If he dies...I die...the same is for me. If I die, so than will he. I need to find him...he's alive, I know it, and I will find him."

Bulma wrapped an arm around her new friends shoulder and grinned, "I'll help you find him, it sounds like this guy really means a lot to you."

"Speaking of meaning a lot to someone." Krillin started but stopped as Kagome viciously shook her head, her hands crossing in the shape of an X as she did. Unsure of whether he should continue, he finally did. "...where is Yamcha?"

Kagome sighed and her head fell forward in defeat. She had dealt with Bulma's yelling about her now ex while they were getting dressed. Yeah, she had also asked if her boyfriend would be going with us...and the mistake was one she had hoped wouldn't be repeated in the near future. Sadly, she couldn't exactly give verbal warning to Bulma's bald friend.

"OH! That idiot!"

"...oh no," Krillin stepped back as he realized what he'd done.

Kagome smiled sadly, "He went out with another girl..." Kagome shuddered, realizing that Vegeta had technically done the same to Bulma with her...Bulma really had bad luck with men...but Kagome wasn't about to say anything about it with Bulma. She wanted this to be different, and she realized now that Bulma made a much better ally, than she did an enemy. That...and she was building a ship for her. If she made her mad now, she might put a detonator in the damn thing and blow it up once Kagome breeched the atmosphere.

"I didn't even tell him we were going to be here, he made me so mad! UGH~!" Bulma seethed angrily, shaking her head, she tried to control her rage and finally, she calmed herself down a bit. "Anyways, on a more important note, where is Goku? I haven't seen him in years!"

"Well, he said he'd be here, so...all we can do is wait," Krillin grinned.

Kagome saw the excitement, it was obvious just how much they loved Goku, and she could understand. She had already planned on pulling him aside to ask for his assistance, as well as explain the truth about everything, hopefully...he would understand...and believe her.
