Wow, I am SUCH a procrastinator. It took me THREE months to insert html brackets?!
Er, yes.
Basically, here's why. If you don't want to read this, then use your brain and skip to the story. And yes, I'm doing this in third person, just to mock my guidance counselor.
Lyri got obsessed with J-rock(that actually happened a while ago).
Lyri started reading only yaoi fanfics.
Lyri lost interest in anime for a SHORT WHILE.
Fanfiction.net got rid of J-rock section, and smut.
J-rock yaoi smut is VERY hard to find now, and isn't all in one place.
Lyri got bored of going to 5939735391 websites to see if the fics were updated, and goes back to reading Inuyasha fanfics.
Lyri gets inspired to work on this.
Now on to the bloody fanfic. I need to stay up, because stupid me thought it would be a good idea to wash the sheets at 10 pm.




"I really can't believe this. A week is pushing it. They've ran away before, but this is unbelievable."
"I bet they've gone and eloped." The tall youth laughed, grinning.
"Sesshoumaru, watch your tongue."
"Father, that's physically impossible." He laughed again. "While the older brother has women waiting at his feet, the younger one has to settle for a childhood friend. Inuyasha, you really are pathetic."
"Sesshoumaru? Are Kagome and Inuyasha really in love?"
"No, Souta, they're not." From the counter, Ms. Higurashi continued to cut the carrots.
"Sesshoumaru's just teasing you," Inuyasha's mother added from the sofa.
"Oh." Souta looked disappointed. "It would be cool if they were. Then Inuyasha could really be my Oniisan!"



"They're back! Kagome, my ears are back! I'm human again!"
Inuyasha was happier than Kagome had ever seen him. "I'm happy for you, Inuyasha."
But I'm not., Kagome thought sadly. I really thought that we were the Inuyasha and Kagome of fifty years ago... Maybe it was just my own selfish desire.
"Kagome, let's go!"
"Right!" She grabbed his hand, jumping out of the well.


One Week Later
Kagome sighed, tapping her pencil against her desk. Their families had easily bought the lie about not having money to get back from Shibuya. Life was normal again. Except that ever since they had returned, Inuyasha had been ignoring her. Inuyasha...she thought. I miss you.
She picked up the picture on her desk. It had been taken the night of the concert. She had on a dark red shirt, and a black miniskirt. Inuyasha wore a tight black top, and black pvc pants. His arm was around her shoulder. They were smiling.
The next picture showed them on their first day of Junior High. She looked nervous, but Inuyasha's hand was firmly on her shoulder.
The pictures went on and on, backwards through time. Swimming when she was ten, Kagome dripping a green popsicle on her bright pink swimsuit. Holding a newborn Souta. Her first day of school, holding Inuyasha's hand.
Her eyes settled on the last and oldest picture. It was taken at the park, and Kagome and Inuyasha had fallen asleep, their bodies curled up together on the grass. They looked so happy and innocent.
A tear fell slowly down her cheek.


"Would you like some more rice, Kikyou-san?"
"No, I'm fine, thank you. You are an amazing cook, Ms. Youhan."
Inuyasha snorted. This girl was fake, fake all over. And the looks that she gave him...
"Well, Sesshoumaru, I'll say that you've finally brought home a perfect girl. Kikyou-san, would you like some tea?"

...Kikyou, the oldest sister, swore that she would someday get her vengeance on Inuyasha and Kagome.

Inuyahsa stared at her. This girl's eyes were cold. Like there was no life in them.
"Okaasan, could I invite Kagome over for dessert?"
"Why, that's a wonderful idea, Inuyasha! Kikyou, Inuyasha's bringing his friend over. I'm sure you'll like her."
Inuyasha sprinted out the door as fast as he could.


"KAGOME!"
Kagome whipped her head aroud and looked out the window. Inuyasha stood there, a worried expression on his face. "Kagome, I need you to come over. Now."
She stared at him. "Sesshoumaru has a new girlfriend."
"He always does!"
"This one's different. Kagome, I can't explain now, just grab your polaroid."
"Polaroid?! Inuyasha, what are you..." He rolled his eyes, grabbed the camera, and pulled her through the window.


"Oh, hello, Kagome! This is Kikyou-san. Kikyou-san, this is Kagome. She's a very good friend of Inuyasha's."
Kagome studied the girl. She was dressed immaculately in a white blouse and red skirt. Her long, straight black hair was tied behind her with a white bow. Her eyes were thin and cold. Kikyou. The older sister who had killed the Inuyasha and Kagome of fifty years ago.
She ate her cake silently, her eyes focused on Kikyou. She wasn't anything like Sesshoumaru's previous girlfriends, they had all been ko-gals dressed in the latest fashions. Yet Kikyou was prim and proper.
"May I take a picture?"


Inuyasha flapped the picture around, waiting for it to dry. They had taken several, a group picture, one of Inuyasha as a human, a picture of Kikyou. Both had agreed that they needed to show these pictures to Kaede. Kagome shoved items in her backpack, anything and everything she could possibly need. They needed to find out the truth, and that could take a long time. The pictures. Ramen. Clothes, underwear, swimsuits, and her polaroid with more and more film. Inuyasha's pack was already slung on his back.
"Kagome..." He looked at her, his voice quiet. "I...I'm sorry I ignored you. I was just so confused about everything that's happened..."
"I understand," she said quietly. I don't! Inuyasha, we're best friends! Why have you been ignoring me? I want to see you! I want to be with you!
"And you're willing to go back in the well, even if it means changing back again?"
"I've been thinking. What if we really are the Inuyasha and Kagome of fifty years ago?"
He didn't give her a chance to respond. "If this is our destiny... we can't run."
"Inuyasha..." She smiled, hopping through the window. "Let's go."


"Kaede!"
"Kagome? Inuyasha?"
"No time to explain," Kagome said breathlessly.
Inuyasha produced the polaroid of Kikyou, shoving it in her face.
Kaede's face went white. "Kikyou-oneesama..."
"Then it's her?"
"Most definitely. Where did you find her??!!"
"My brother's girlfriend." Inuyasha pulled out the group picture.
Kaede studied it. "The great Taiyoukai of the west, and his mate." She ran her fingers over the picture of Inuyasha's parents.
"You knew them?"
Kaede nodded. "Yes.
Kagome stared out at the sunset. It had become some sort of ritual, watching the sunset with Inuyasha.
He's late,Kagome thought. He said he'd be here.
She lay back on the grass, watching the clouds move. Inuyasha believes it. He believes that we're the Inuyasha and Kagome of fifty years ago. She paused, closing her eyes. If we are... If we truly are them, then are we destined to fall in love? Are we destined to the same fate as them?
Or was it before? Am I in love with Inuyasha?



I have to tell her. Before we leave, I'll tell her. Inuyasha's mind was racing as fast as his legs. I'm late... but I'll tell her.

She leanedback, snaking her arm around his neck. "Inuyasha..." She said quietly. She closed her eyes, and he leaned down to kiss her, slowly and deeply. "Kagome... Oh, my Kagome..."
They continued kissing, eventually lying down. "Mmm... Inuyasha... I love you... stay with me forever, Inuyasha."
"Always, Kagome... I love you."
She placed his hand on her breast. "Tonight."
He paused, staring at her. "Kagome... do you know what you're doing? Are you sure that you want to mate with a Hanyou?"
She smiled. "In my mind, Inuyasha, I've been your mate all along."
They were naked. He ran his hands all over her body, kissing her and carressing her. He poised himself above her, then slowly lowered himself. "I love you, Kagome." Kissing her, he pushed into her.


Kagome awoke with a start. She and Inuyasha had had sex??!! She had made love to Inuyasha. "Kagome."
He was behind her, his long white hair flapping in the breeze. "Sorry I'm late." His words were soft and kind, whispering into her ear. His lips were so close.
She rested her head on his shoulder. One clawed hand came up, stroking her hair. "It's okay," she said quietly. "I didn't wait long."

TELL HER! She needs to know!You need to tell her.
I can't. I don't want to lose Kagome. Even if we're only friends, I want her in my life.


"Take me somewhere different tonight."
Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow. "Bored already?"
"I was bored a long time ago." Kikyou drew a slip of paper from her purse, placing it in front of her date's nose. "Take me here."
Sesshoumaru studied the paper. "Where is this?"
She rolled her eyes. "Get out, I'm driving. We're going to meet my friend."


About fifteen minutes later they arrived in a dark alley. Kikyou parked the car, not caring that she had run over a few garbage cans.
A tall youth stood at the end of the alley, smoking. Kikyou raced over to him, and kissed him on the cheek.
Sesshoumaru followed her, unsure of what was going on.
The youth took a long drag on his cigarette, blowing it out smoothly. "Are you Sesshoumaru?"
Sesshoumaru nodded. "I've been waiting to meet you." He held out his hand, and Sesshoumaru shook it uneasily. "I'm Naraku."
Naraku grinned, his eyes growing smaller. His arm was around Kikyou, and her grin mirrored his. Sesshoumaru glared. "What do you want?"
Naraku laughed. His laugh was hollow, and anyone could tell that he was planning something sadistic. "The same thing you want. The same thing Kikyou wants."
Sesshoumaru turned to Kikyou. "What do you want?"
Kikyou laughed, opening her red-painted lips, then grinning. "I want to kill your brother."



Woo. Kikyou's a bitch. Isn't she always, tho? She's just a bit skanky here. She's a woman with a mission, tho. However disturbing that mission may be.
This is coming from a girl who wrote a story about a man who enjoyed stapling people for english.
Oh, and the band in Chapter Six was Malice Mizer. If you don't know who they are, go here. And yes, that really does happen in concerts. *hugs her Merveilles L'espace DVD*
Okay. Will shut up now, crazy fangirl that I am.
