CHAPTER 10!

~INUYASHA'S POV~

"What are you talking about? I don't even know you! How could I possibly tell you that I love you?!" I blurted out. 'What is she talking about?'

But her reaction was something I never expected and I began to regret saying what I did. She paled considerably and her once brilliant eyes glazed over with tears. "I-Inuyasha, this isn't funny," she whispered shakily as if trying to convince herself that I was joking. This is just all too confusing. "Please, be serious. D-did you really forget about me? Can you really remember nothing about us?" she begged, her eyes still full of hope. She looked so frail and fragile right now, seeming as if I said the wrong thing, then she would break.

I was lost for words. Something was pulling in the back of my head, like a buried memory. Buried for all the pain it caused me or just to make sure I could become a full youkai by hiding away all my strong emotions. I wasn't sure which, but there was something important about this girl. Kagome, the name seemed familiar, but faraway at the same time. "Hey! How am I sure that you just aren't just trying to steal my shards? And how is it that you know me, but I don't know you?" I demanded.

"Inuyasha, I've known you for about three years now!! You know you can trust me! I don't know how you forgot about me, but I-I can help you. Maybe I can help you remember...." she began loudly and a little irritated but trailed off at the end.

"Feh, if you really have known me for three years, then you could probably pretty much tell me anything about myself!" I challenged smirking.

"Hmph, fine! Let's see, um, you are a hanyou, your father was the great inuyoukai, Inutaisho (A/N: is that how you spell it?), you have a half brother, Sesshoumaru who is a full youkai and you both detest each other. Sesshoumaru also travels with some frog youkai or something named Jaken. You inherited the Tetsusaiga from your father and Sesshoumaru was after it for a while, and what else, oh yea, Kikyo." She answered huffily, but saying Kikyo's name with contempt. "Kikyo was the mighty priestess and guardian of the sacred Shikon no Tama. You two fell in love and you were going to become a human so you could be with her. But both of you were deceived by Naraku, but you guys didn't know it was Naraku at first. Kikyo then sealed you to the Goshinboku for fifty years, but she died shortly after sealing you because of the fatal wounds that were inflicted upon her by Naraku. There, I summarized the beginning of your life in less than three minutes," she finished smirking, but I could have sworn that her eyes were a little watery when she said that Kikyo and I were in love despite the fact that her eyes were dry now. (A/N: sorry if this chapter/paragraph is confusing, but itz kinda hard to word!)

My eyes almost popped out of my head in surprise but I quickly put on a stoic face, hoping she didn't notice. How did she know so much?!? "Feh, lucky guess," I replied. Immediately I could sense her frustration building.

"WHAT?!?!? LUCKY GUESS?!??! Inuyasha! Stop being so stubborn!! That wasn't some lucky guess and you know it!" she yelled at me.

"Feh," I said again, turning away. Stupid girl, I'm not that easy to read, am I?

"Can you really remember nothing at all?" she asked, her voice softer this time. I turned and looked at her, she was much meeker than she was just three seconds before. "You have to remember something!" she said commandingly and hopefully. (A/N: wow, I do that a lot too, the hopefully thing and the eyes filled with emotions, im like a broken record....) "Come on! Just anything! Anything at all!!"

"I-I thing I remembered one thing, but it only became clear to me earlier today so it's probably just nothing," I answered quickly, turning away.

"Tell me," her voice was gentle, yet commanding.

"I was at some sort of cliff near a cave. There was an old hag, next to an unconscious girl that was slightly beginning to glow. She was a little pale and looked almost dead. She looked exactly like you. The girl I mean. (A/N: lol!! I added that cuz if you are like me, you would have been confused, hehe -_-;;) In front of me was-was Kikyo," I paused there, waiting for her reaction to Kikyo's name. All that happened was that she furrowed her eyebrows. She looked really cute like that. Wait! Where'd that come from!?!?!

"Go on," she urged.

"Well, Kikyo, was in pain, her shoulder was bleeding profusely and-and she asked me why-why I betrayed her," I finished quietly, remembering the pain, anger, and hate swirling in Kikyo's deep brown eyes.

"D-do you remember anything else?" she asked, sounding slightly disappointed.

"No," I snapped. "How about you answering some questions now?"

Her brows furrowed together again, but this time she seemed a little annoyed, if not angry. But as quickly as it came, her anger subsided and she simply sighed. "All right, I suppose it's fair."

"Alright, how do you know of me? Like really know me?" I asked, this question had been gnawing at the back of my mind, dying to be answered.

"Um, you were sealed to a tree the first time I met you. I released you and you were gonna kill me in order to get the Shikon no Tama, but Kaede put the rosary around your neck and I was then allowed to use a subduing spell on you. Then-" she started but I cut her off.

"A SUBDUING SPELL??!?! On me?!?! yea, right! As if!" Feh, she's already lying. Subduing spell, as if any spell could subdue me!

"What? Don't you believe me?" she asked innocently.

"Of course I don't believe you!"

"But there really is one!" she returned, gazing up at me, eyes wide and innocent.

"Feh, then prove it!" I challenged again.

"Alright, if you insist! But don't say I didn't warn you!" she said, shrugging her shoulders. "Sit boy!"

Immediately the rosary around my neck began to glow a pinkish-purple, then an immense force pulled me downwards; I couldn't fight it!! "Aaahhhh-" the rest was muffled by my face slamming into the dirt. Now that I think about it, 'pulling' was an understatement. It took almost a full half-minute for the spell to completely wear off and I got up and leaped onto a high branch.

~KAGOME'S POV~

After falling face first into the dirt, he looked kinda pissed. But of course, who wouldn't? Especially if you had no control over it! I couldn't help but smother a laugh when I saw his face.

When he finally recovered from the shock or the spell wore off, I'm not quite sure which, he leapt up onto a thick, high branch in a nearby tree, looking away as if nothing had happened. Too bad he didn't notice all the dirt on his haori.

"Inuyasha!" I called up. "Come back down! How do you expect me to talk to you like this?!"

"Feh, you seem to be doing a good job so far," he grumbled in reply but came a few yards lower anyway.
