something about me working on some songfics? Well, I reread one of them and

pet!!
Chapter 4!!!!
Hmmmmm.....song of the day....In A Little While by Uncle Kracker...well? what are you waitin for? Go download it or whatever...
(A/N: I am sooooooo extremely super sorry about the confusion!!! Ok, kagome left and she's been gone for 3 years! Only 3, not 4 not 2, but 3!! I know I said 500 in chapter 2 and 1 year in chapter 1 and 3 in chapter 3, but it's only been 3, shippo has been waiting for her to return for 3 years, kagome has been gone for 3 years.am I getting through to you guys? ^_~)
"Well, let's go inside, Shippo! I'm sure you're hungry and would like something to eat!" I said happily as I walked out of the forest, Shippo skipping by my side. Everything had just taken a turn for the better!! Sango and Miroku were still alive and Shippo was here and Naraku was dead!! Nothing could ruin my mood right now!
"Oh, I'm hungry too!! I agree! Let's go inside!!" grrr.. I spoke too soon.
"Hojo? What are you still doing here?" I asked him slowly through gritted teeth.
"Huh? What are you talking about? I'm supposed to be here!! Always for you!! I'm your boyfriend and my hopes are that one-day we can get married and have a big family and." rambled Hojo, continuing and not noticing Shippo's tensing and growling and my exasperated sigh of defeat. What does it take to get rid of this bozo?
"YOU IDOIT!!!!!" Shippo exploded, startling Hojo. "How dare you even try to lay a claim on Kagome!!!"
"Huh? Hey, kid, where'd you come from? You know, it's not nice to be at someone's house if you weren't invited. (Feh, and he should talk!)" he stated matter-of-factly.
"Ok, I'll tell you this one last time. Go home, Hojo and DON'T come back!!" I said coolly.
"Alright! I'll see you tomorrow!! Don't worry! I'll pick you up for our picnic!!" he called happily as he mounted his bike and began to cycle away. Too bad, uh maybe not, that he had forgotten about the shrine steps and well, you can guess what happened. "Aaaahhhh!!!"
"Do we have to see if he's ok?" whined Shippo. I smiled.
"Yea. It's kind of our fault he fell. No wait. Actually it isn't but it's not nice and I wouldn't want to get sued or something." I sighed. Shippo just kept his head down, staring at the ground and muttering and he continued to hold my hand. Geez, after three years, I was still more than twice his height. But that's ok! He's all the cuter!! ^___^
We walked over to the edge of the stairs and looked over. Down at the bottom, was Hojo lying stomach up with swirlies in his eyes and his bike, in pretty bad shape might I add, next to him. It was all I could do to keep from laughing at him. The idiot finally got what he deserved! (A/N: Im sorry to any Hojo likers!! I've only seen 1 episode with him in it and it was the one where Kagome came back to her time with the noh mask.I didn't like him very much!! He's kinda an idiot!! I mean, if kagome really had all those illnesses, why would she be in school??!!?) "Should we just leave him there?" I asked Shippo, already knowing the answer. He nodded emphatically and we walked/skipped inside the house. (A/N: eheheheh!!! ^_^)
Inside my house, I took Shippo into the kitchen and gave him some chips to snack on as I grabbed a Snickers bar. (A/N: I absolutely LUV snickers!!! They are sooo good!! Oooo and so are Reese!!! Mmmm^________^) We both sat there eating for a few minutes when Shippo decided to break the silence.
"Are you going to come back with me?" I stared. "I know something bad happened but it's probably gone! And Sango and Miroku miss you a lot too!! And also, we're going to need a new miko because old Kaede-babaa is really tired lately and she's been talking about searching for a new miko for the village!!" I looked downwards. I missed all of them too, but, I'm just not sure I can handle this right now. I looked up at Shippo and immediately regretted it. He had a pouting face on and looked up at me with big, watery eyes. I sighed out loud. Grrr. How could you say no to a face like that?
"Grrr.oh alright! I'll come! But only for a few weeks!" I surrendered as Shippo jumped into the air with a victory shout. He got off his chair and was bouncing around the room in joy as I sat there barely nibbling my Snickers. (A/N: I could never do that!! It would have been eaten if it were me!! ^____^) Before I could react, Shippo dragged me off my chair and ran up the stairs and plopped me down on my bed in my room. "Oof! Hey! Shippo! Wait!! Hang on!! I can pack myself!!!" I called as he ran madly around my room, flinging clothes from my closet and pouring out my dresser drawers. He stopped where he was and looked at me as innocently as he possibly could. He had a sock hanging off one of his ears, had some how managed to get tangled up in an oversized tee-shirt that was slightly twisted around his legs. I walked over and began to disentangle him and got out my small travel suitcase.
"Ok, Shippo? Why don't you just sit on my bed like a good youkai and let me do the packing ok?" I asked him, flashing him my sweetest smile.
"Um, ok, Kagome-chan!!" he answered happily, busy trying to sniff the kitsune reflected to him in the mirror. I began to fold and pack the clothes and stuff I was packing and as soon as I finished, I began to clean up my room after hurricane Shippo ransacked it.
"Yay!!! Kagome!! This is soooo much fun!!!" exclaimed Shippo as he bounced on my bed.
"No! Shippo! Don't-" I began urgently. I closed my eyes and winced as I heard a loud crack. I slowly opened my eyes, fanning away some of the dust that has now appeared in my room. "Sh-Shippo? Are you ok?" I asked looking towards the bed as I opened a window.
"Ow!!!" whined Shippo, sitting on my bed and holding onto his head while above him, dust continued to fall from the large crack he made in my ceiling. "Eheheh..um, sorry?" he said following my gaze upwards.
"It's ok. I'll take care of it when I get back home." I sighed. Boy, my mom's not going to be very pleased with my housesitting.
A few minutes later, we stood by the edge of the well, looking down. "Are you sure you came through the well? I'm sure I sealed it." I asked wonderingly.
"Uh huh. It was shining purplish pink! So I just hopped in!" he stated cheerfully as he jumped in.
"Wait!-" I began again but stopped when I heard a thump and another 'ow' from Shippo.
"Why isn't the stupid well letting me through?!?!" he yelled angrily. "Kagome!!! Will you pleeeaaaase unseal it?!?!"
"Yea, sure, hang on!" I called down. I closed my eyes and focused on the well. When I opened my eyes again, Shippo was staring curiously at me and some purplish pink light was fading from the room.
"That was cool. Can you do it again?" he asked innocently.
"Eheheh..um you wanted to get back to your time right?" I asked changing the subject.
"Oh, yea! Ok! Let's go!!" I took a deep breath. It was now or never! And I jumped in with Shippo.
A/N: I know!! I know!! This chapter is shorter than the others.or is it? I am soooooooooooooooo super excited!! Tonite they're playing the inuyasha episode where inuyasha turns human for the first time!! I've wanted to see that episode for such a long time!! I agree with you! They should have inuyasha more than once a week, but if they did, I wouldn't have much time to write cuz I'd be watchin tv instead!! Also, in january, they're gonna play inuyasha Monday-Tuesday nights!! I think so at least....ok well review !!!!! and I'm gonna try to get the next chapter out as soon as possible for all my devoted readers!!! ^____^
