Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. If I did, do you think I'd be writing
this!? I'd be in a hot tub in content happiness.
A/N: Kami-sama, I made so many mistakes. Thanx to you guys for catching them! Okay it should've been content, but I put contempt. I think it's in Chapter 4 that I made that mistake. Thanx, Arin (Nadoko-no-baka) for catching it. You guys gotta read her story!(Unbroken Silence) it's awesome and I guess you could call it an AU. (Yay I learned that AU means alternate universe.) Oh yeah, Souta should've been 3 years old, not 1, so I'm gonna change it from now on to 3. He just magically got older as of now. Thanx to tsukinoko for catching that. Wow! Over 50 reviews! *spazs out and runs aroung happily* People actually read my story! *runs with eyes closed giggleing like a crazed fangirl who got Inuyasha's kimono* Whoo-hoo! *continues to run with eyes closed straight into a pole* Uhgnn!! Oww... *falls limply to the ground with a red mark down her face*
SHOUT-OUTS:
Twin Star of Suzaku: thanx for being the first to tell me what AU means.
Tsukinoko: Don't worry there'll be a memory when Kagome's dad dies. I'm kinda working up to that point now, with him smoking and all. It'll either be in the last chapter or next to last chapter.
Nadoko-no-baka: Hey Arin! I cowered after I read your review. You know you scare me. Gomen about the comtempt, content thing. GOMEN!!! *bows many times while saying 'don't hurt me'* Yes everyone reading this has to read Unbroken Silence because it's cool and has a cool opening/poem thingy at the first of chapter 2. You better like your Christmas present. It's so awesome, and I can't wait til' it comes. Call ya later Arin! ^_^
Jupiter's Light: Thanx for reviewing!
Skittles: Oh God, I love your story! I'm so happy you started reading it. You rock! ^_~ Well if it ships that fast I should get it tomorrow...At least, I hope I do. I need to check my e-mail for a conformation thingy. I haven't checked my e-mail in like, a week. I'm glad you think this story's cute. I seem to have a low opinion of myself it seems. I was waiting for a flame, but no one has flamed me...yet. I can't wait til' you write more of you're story! I be waiting. ^_^
EuGIeBeAr: I'll make that memory sometime. M/B in this chapter or the next.
naisdreams: Okay now I know what AU means. I'm happy now! ^_^ I don't like them much either. That's why I only write these kinda fics. (Even though this is only my second one) But some AUs are okay, if they remember their past and crap like that.
Lemon-Queen-69: You're the best you know that. You've helped me so much and given me such long reviews about stuff you do and stuff like that. I really enjoy reading your reviews! And you told me where to download kazaa too. You rock! Windows '98 does suck. Kagome' dad dies of a heart-attack. Yeah, I know, my dad smoked for 26 years. He stopped when I was three though, after he had his first heart-attack, and then he had another heart- attack. But he didn't die and that was like five years ago. That's basically where I got the idea for this fic. Oh yeah, I love your fic, "I wish I was different". It's very cool. I hope it's an Inu/Kag, but I still have another chapter that you recently put up to read, but I gotta finish this chapter first since I'm about to go outta town to Mississippi from Alabama to take my Grandma home.
bookwrm580: I know I'm evil, and proud of it. AU means alternate universe. whoo-hoo, I found out! ^,^
Misao CG: Miroku is a bad influence...I think it's funny though. Miroku's like the comic relief. ^_^
tsukinko: Thanx for telling me about the Souta age thing. I must've been off in my own little world when I thought he was eight. @_@
lil washu: AU= alternate universe. yay! I found out what it means. *starts break dancing on a table* cough, cough Just pretend I didn't do that... I hate it when people smoke too...It's really bad for ya, you know?
Aeyikie: NOOO!!! MY INU PLUSHIE!!! My one joy in life!!!!*drops to knees and starts to cry* Okay I wrote the chapter, now can I have my plushie back?
Suya: I like being mean! That's why I make the cliffhangers! *smiles evily and starts to plot next cliffhanger* Hohohohoho! Evil Kodachi Kuno laugh!
RaspK FOG: protector. What was I thinking when I spelled it 'protecter'? I'm a baka. Thanx for catching the mistake.
pinkpiggy: You don't think I'm weird? Cool. I'm glad you like my sense of humor in the author's notes. But I have to go now since the voices in my head are getting restless. *cluthes head* The Voices!!!! Noooooo!!!!! (^_^)
nightangel: Thanx for reviewing!
____________________________________________________________________ Memories by a Golden Locket: Ch. 6 : Hotspring Talk. (This first part will be divided with the guys and girls, with stars...Just read!)
"Isn't this wonderful, Sango?" Kagome sighed contently as she relaxed in the water.
"Hai, it does. Hey Kagome?"
"Hnmm?"
"Why have you been acting so strange lately?"
**************The Guys (Miroku, Inu,)***************
They walked to where they heard Kagome talking to Sango.
"Isn't this wonderful, Sango?" They heard from the other side of their bush.
Inuyasha looked at Miroku and pushed him down so the girls wouldn't spot them. "You better not look at Kagome, monk." He said in a dangerously, low growl.
"Then why are we here?" Miroku whined.
"To see what's wrong with Kagome." He whispered harshly as he pulled Miroku down more and glared at him.
"Did she tell you anything?" Miroku asked him.
"She told me of a weird nightmarish memory she imagained, but that's all."
"So you wanna know more?" Miroku stated more than questioned.
"Hai, I wanna know what's bothering Kagome so we can get on with our quest and complete the jewel." Inuyasha said, but his heart wasn't in it. He really was worried for her and even Miroku could tell. So, together, they hid behind the bushes to listen in on the girl's conversation, even though Miroku had more on his mind.
******************The Girls*****************
"Well lately, I've been having these memories."
"Memories? What about?"
"Well..."
"C'mon Kagome. You know you can tell me anything."
"Okay... I've been having these memories of my father. Sometimes they're happy, but this one time I had a memory with an ending that didn't really happen."
"What happened at the end?" Sango asked her best friend beside her.
"Well you see, I was little and my father and I were fishing on a bank. Well everything turned black and the water glowed and I became fifteen again, instead of eight. Well anyway, I was running through a really creepy graveyard...and I...tripped. I crawled to this tombstone and pulled the vines off it...It had my father's name on it..." Kagome was pausing in her story because her voice was catching. She wanted to tell someone and Sango was someone who you could open up to and she'd listen and comfort her. Kagome gulped as she and Sango got some towels to dry off while they continued talking.
********Back to the Guys**********
The scene shifts to Inuyasha with his foot holding Miroku's face down in the dirt while the girls got out of the water naked to get the towels. Inuyasha was still sitting crouched, but his great since of balance let him balance perfectly on one foot. He was looking at the ground listening while Miroku struggled to get up so he could breathe sweet oxygen once again. As soon as the girl's stood up, Inuyasha had seen Miroku watching and decided to make him eat dirt. Inuyasha wasn't about to betray kagome's trust by watching her without her knowing. Heck, he knew how many 'sits' he'd get if he was caught. He probaly wouldn't be able to walk for a few days.
********Girls********
Kagome and Sango sat on some large rocks, wrapped in towels that Kagome brought from her time, trying to dry their hair some. "So that's why you've been zoneing out on us..."
"Hai." Kagome said softly as she stared at the ground, the locket hanging once again from her neck, shimering in the faint sun light, as the sun was starting to set. One of the shorter memories came to her mind.
*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~Memory~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Little Kagome, Three-year old Souta, and their dad sitting on the pier, each with corndogs in their hands, as the sunset shimmers before them. The sunset eluminates the sea before them in a radiance of colors, each color rippling in the wind as the water did. Little Kagome smiled as she held her dad's hand, Souta held on to their dad's shirt as he yawned and rested his head on his dad's side. This image was perfect, but even in the memory, Kagome could still swear she could still smell the horrible smoke on his clothes. The smoke which took his life..
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*End Memory~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kagome and Sango were now fully dressed and walking towards the bushes where Miroku and Inuyasha were hiding. Inuyasha had enough sense to run while he left Miroku there to be caught. Sango looked at Miroku disgusted. She pulled out Hiraikotsu and pounded the living crap outta him. "HENNNTTAAAIII!!!"
"But, Oww.. Inu. Ouch.. ya. Ohh! sha. was Oww! here Kaim-sama! too! stop please." He managed to get out while pleading for Sango to stop hitting him. Kagome took a while for the words to sink in before yelling out "SIT!!!" There was a Thud followed by a string of curses. They all ran toward the source of the voice and Kagome yelled out "Sit!" again to make sure he couldn't get up before they found him.
Close to the halfway point to their campsite, they found Inuyasha pinned to the ground cursing into the dirt for his misfortune. "So, Miroku was right. You were spying on me!" a slap was heard behind her and Miroku fell to the ground with Sango screaming "Hentai!" with her hand still raised from the slap.
Inuyasha couldn't really tell her he was really worried about her and trying to listen to what's wrong with her instead on spying on her bathtime. How would that make the Great Inuyasha look? He had an image to maintain, not to show his soft spot towards a human. So he did the only thing he could think of. He got up in his trademark pose, arms crossed over his chest, with nose in the air and said his favorite word. "Feh."
Kgome was mad. He wasn't denying spying on her and he didn't give her an explanation. "Sit! Sit! SIT!" She held the last one out for angonizing slowness. Once he was almost three feet under ground, she and Sango continued to walk back to camp in the ever nearing darkness.
Kagome and Sango, followed by Miroku, still rubbing his cheek and a sulking Inuyasha neared camp right before the darkness slipped into place. A fire was already going thanks to Shippou and Kirara. Kagome smiled as Shippou once again jumped into her arms. "D'ja sit Inuyasha?"
"Hai. I did." She said as she smiled down at him. She looked at Inuyasha, who looked kinda sad almost. She sighed. He could be so imature sometimes. "Inuyasha?" He looked up at her. She walked closer to him. "Would you like me to make you some Ramen?" She smiled at him to show him she wasn't mad anymore. He thought of just jumping in a tree, but had time for the word 'Ramen' to sink in.
"Ramen?" He looked at her hopefully.
"C'mon." she commanded as she pulled him towards the fire and started to rumage through her pack for the Ramen. Sango looked at her friend.
"Oi, Kagome?"
"Yes?"
"What was a memory you had of your dad?"
Kagome thought for a minute as thoughts flooded her mind. She remembered a baseball game with her father and brother. It was her birthday and her father had paid them to put happy birthday across the scoreboard. She smiled. But, started to wonder about the customs of birthdays in the Warring States Era.
"Do you know about birthdays?"
"The day you were born?" Miroku asked.
"Yeah, when you turn another year older." Kagome said, wondering if they understood.
"Feh. What's so great about getting old?" Inuyasha asked.
"Well, in my Era, it's a big deal."
"Here it's just like any other day." Shippou stated.
"What do you do in your Era, Kagome?" Sango asked her.
"Well, it's a celebration. You have a party with a cake that has candles on it to symbolize how many years old you are and you have your friends and family come over to celebrate with you. It's a really special day and they bring you gifts to help celebrate you getting older." She smiled.
"What does that have ta do with your dad?" Inuyasha gruffly asked.
"I'm getting to that!" she snapped.
"Geez." Said Inuyasha
"Well anyway, Sota, my dad, and I were at a baseball game..." She paused at their confused expressions. 'Maybe this wasn't the bast idea...' She thought to herself. "Baseball is a sport where you hit a ball with a stick and run around desinated areas called bases. Well anyway, my dad got them to put 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAG!' across the scoring screen." Again they looked confused and she let out a frustrated sigh. The Ramen was almost done. They looked at her and saw she was in no mood to explain things to her friends from the past so they just said "oh" and smiled and nodded. "You guys have no idea what I'm talking about do you?" She questioned.
"Not a clue." Miroku said.
"Didn't think so..."
They ate their Ramen in silence and Kagome went to sleep. She was dead tired now and all this remembering stuff was making her more tired than usual. She crawled to the sleeping bag and was out like a light in seconds with Shippou curled up at her side of course. She tossed and turned in her sleep as the memories flooded back to her. "Daddy..." She whispered as a single tear escaped her eye.
