Disclaimer: Same as chapter one (1). I DO NOT own the Inu Yasha series, but I'd be in heaven if I did. I do so far own this story and the original characters. I DO own the characters that I have made up. They are: Meiko Asano, Akiha, Kiyomi, and Mihoko. I also own this this storyline. I made this up.
Inu Yasha~ Secrets
Chapter 5~ Inu Yasha goes to find Kagome and more secrets are revealed.
Sesshoumaru had insisted on carrying her the whole way. Kagome rolled her eyes, "Are we there yet, or even close"
"Almost", Sesshoumaru answered with not even a hint of aggravation in it. The truth was he had bee having strange feelings and dreams about this girl and he wanted to know why. He hadn't really paid much attention to girls during his journey to become the rule of the western lands because they would have gotten in the way. After he had gained what he had wanted to he tried to find a girl to love but he didn't find any success and after a few moths he gave up on it deciding that it didn't matter that they would only get in the way or use him to get what they wanted. And he certainly did NOT want to get used by anybody so he had dropped the subject from his thoughts and never thought of it again, that is until he started fantasizing… if you could call it that about this girl and having weird feeling towards her, noticing everything about her. If this was his only chance as what people called love then he certainly wasn't going to miss it.
Jumping into the well all at once they decided that they would bring Kagome back even if it meant kicking and screaming.
Meiko laid her head on her side as she tried to decide whose story was true. Well, daddy's story doesn't have all that much detail in it, and no one from his past to back it up. Mommy wasn't with him and didn't even know him when it happened. All I have to back his story up is his word. And he had been known to lie in his past when it was convenient. Maybe he was one of the demons who was power hungry and after it-NO! She yelled back at her thoughts, Daddy would do that he wouldn't lie to mommy… he would lie to me. But no matter what she thought the more she thought about it the more Inu Yasha's story made much more sense. His dad had obviously made it so that he could protect his mother and to keep his demon blood down so that he could protect her from himself. But her dad, he said it was in their bloodline for years and it was part of a tradition. FAH! What a weak-ass excuse, she realized soon enough and just as she was about to hand it to him when the door opened and she saw 6 pairs or eyes staring at her.
"Who are you?" the six said in unison.
With a sharp "hm" she started her explanation. "My name is Meiko Asano and I'm a friend of Higurashi Kagome or Kagome Higurashi whichever way you want to say it."
"Wait a second if you're her friend then why did you attack us last night?"
"Wait a second, She attacked you?" Sango asked, "Then that must mean your…"
"A hanyou, yeah. I attacked you last night because he had my father's sword. You stole it from him while he was saving a little girl from falling!" Meiko's voice loud and threatening as she lunged at a startled Inu Yasha.
"Wait!" Akiha screamed. "What your father told you is a lie. This guy close to my village, he's a youkai who had heard about the Tetsusaiga and it's powers, so he decided that he wanted it. But after hunting for it for awhile he decided it would be better if he had help, but no one wanted to help him with his selfish ways, so he decided if he got married he would tell his wife something to tell their kids. He then decided that he wanted the Jewel, so that he could be more powerful. But then a priestess named Kikyo was guarding it and she was supposed to be very powerful, many had fallen before her. She was also now involved with some hanyou. So he went on a little quest to find out if others would help him. He tried to bribe them when people refused, so then he grew really desperate and make sure that his wife would make sure that her kids would defiantly go after it. So he decided that he was gonna tell his wife that a demon had stolen the Tetsusaiga form him while he was saving a little girl from falling and he had tried to chase after the demon but he was already gone. He would tell her that the sword had been in his bloodline for years, and very special to him, it had old memories and it was part of a tradition that his family had had. He had a different story for the shards, he had to exchange the shards for the people he loved lives, so reluctantly at gun point the handed it over then tried to get it back, but he could get it and they had killed his mother too. Leaving him for dead after shooting him with youkai weapons. He would tell her that the demons wanted to use it for evil things because they were power hungry." Akiha looked at the girl looking to see if she was willing to realize the truth. The girl looked at her shocked. Then shook her head. "Someone must have told you."
"How? I have never been to this time and in my time he didn't even have a wife yet. I just found out about this well right before we jumped in it. And you can even ask Shippo and his friends, I told them about this story a little while ago when Sango told me about Inu Yasha's missing sword and their situation." Everyone except for Inu Yasha, Meiko, and Akiha nodded their heads 'yes'.
Sesshoumaru said that she could choose any room that she wanted to have. Kagome was smiling o the outside but inside she was wondering if she would regret this once she was no longer mad in Inu Yasha. She was also wondering he expected her to marry him now. God she hoped not, because although Sesshoumaru had claimed a little after coming here that they were meant to be together, Kagome had never even looked at him once like that, ok maybe once or twice like that, but not much. The more she thought about it, the more she thought about how much more happier she would be with him. She had almost made up her mind to marry him if he asked when Rin came up to her and asked her if she would help teach her how to read. Rin was a little girl Sesshoumaru had taken in. But no one knew why. After hearing her ask her this she suddenly thought what about school? Sesshoumaru didn't know about the well so how would he ever let her go back to school without him finding out about the well. She let out a sigh then realized that the girl was still waiting for an answer. Whoops, she thought. "Yeah, I'd love to teach you. Do you hav any books, or paper and pencil?" she asked forming a fake smile on her face to mask the confusion, anger, happiness, and even more confusion that she was feeling.
Meiko thought about it some more and rolled her eyes. Even from where she was standing she could sense that the hanyou in front of her was changing. His demon blood must be raising she thought and got scared even as she thought that. She didn't know what would happen when it completely took over and she didn't want to know. Handing the sword over to Inu Yasha she said that she was sorry and hung her head down in embarrassment and in anger. How could her dad have tricked her like that? She mumbled that she was sorry again and sat down on Kagome's bed. She sighed and Sango suddenly yelled, "Oh my god, where's Kagome? She said she was going back through the well so she should be here!" With that everyone looked around and said that they honestly didn't know. Miroku thought for a moment then suggested something, "What if something cause her to stay in our time and not go back?" Inuyasha looked scared because he thought that meant that someone had taken her. Meiko looked around then remembered what had happened. "Wait you guys…" everyone looked up at her as she continued, "I had smelt a human in the well, but I couldn't tell who it was then the human stepped out of the well… and I didn't get a good look at them, but I could have sworn it was Kagome. They climbed back in it, but eventually they climbed out and they looked very agitated. As they walked by me I could have sworn that it was Kagome but I didn't follow the person because I didn't want to get lost in that time, I didn't know my around and I would get lost. Besides I needed to use the well." She finished with a sigh and then before she knew it Inu Yasha was running down the stair back to the well.
"Wait!" Sango yelled stopping everyone else. "How did you get to our time without anyone knowing?" the girl looked at her with blank eyes and said, "I don't really know". Sango searched her eyes for a hint of dishonesty.
Inu Yasha looked around, he was now in the past. He sniffed around and soon found Kagome's scent. After awhile thought he smelt Kagome's and his brother Sesshoumaru's scent and this bothered him. At first a thought came to his mind that he had made Kagome his right here but then he realized that their scent led away from here. He decided to follow the scent until he found them.
Kagome was surprised when a voice inside her said that she wanted to stay with Sesshoumaru but then she argued that she needed to go to High School and if hose ever went back to her family they would make her go, if she stayed away from them long enough the might forbid her to go back to the past for fear she would never return. She knew she would have to visit them because she would miss them terribly. Besides she had to go back tonight or early in the morning for school.
"But you need a shard to use the well" Sango said.
"I…I think I know why Kagome was frustrated and ran away. I think she thought that was well was not working." Meiko said before she looked away guilt shown in her eyes.
"Why would she think that?" Miroku asked. Sango looked behind her when she thought she heard a noise only to see that Shippo and Akiha had fallen asleep snuggled in each other arms. That's so cute, she thought.
"Because…because something happen yesterday. Me and Kagome were in the kitchen and at that time I didn't know the truth so I thought I had to get all the shards so I gave her a 'hug' wrapping my hands around her neck and stealing the shard. I then told her I'd show myself out and she didn't argue because Inu Yasha had appeared outside asking why she hadn't come back yet and she dint know how to explain him to me. I pretended to leave then came back to the kitchen and watched as they jumped into the well together. I was just about to follow them, as a matter of fact I was at the well and had one foot in it when I thought 'what if she has other shards in the house. So I went into the house and searched it." she took a breath some of her guilt being relived but only a little bit. She exhaled loudly then continued. "I had been searching for a long, long time for the shards but I couldn't find it and on accident I thought about the well, then I decide to do as I had saw Kagome and Inu Yasha do and jump into the well. So I ended up in you time" she said gesturing to Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Akiha, Kiyomi, and Mihoko. Then I was fighting Inu Yasha but then I realized that it would be much easier if I stole it when he was sleeping so I pretended to yelp and ran away. I was gonna wait until everyone had fallen asleep but Inu Yasha was taking so long I threw some of my sleeping power thing on him that was passed down through the generations. Afterwards, once I hade quietly made my way back to the well I smelt someone else in it. So I waited and I could have sworn I saw Kagome." There that's my story.
Their scents had lead Inu Yasha to his brother's castle. Pushing past all the guards he made his way into the castle.
Getting off the bed, Meiko noticed the two sleeping kitsune and said , "Maybe we shouldn't wake them." When everyone agreed they took off for the well. Jumping in quickly once they reached the other side they had to admit sadly that they had no clue what so ever as to where to look. Deciding just to follow the general direction Kagome had left they had started to follow when Mihoko interrupted them.
"You guys, if this Inu Yasha guy could smell it out why don't we just go back to your camp and wait for him to come back?" Miroku thought for a moment then said, "Couldn't we just take Kiyomi to the camp and have her smell her sleeping bag or something?"
"Yeah, but its got our smells on it too and all those smells might confuse her." Sango argued.
After 10 minutes of arguing they finally decided to wait at the camp.
"Whatever happens she'll have to go back to her time tonight, that when her family comes home from vacation." Sango reasoned.
Sango suddenly realized something. Miroku hadn't hit on any of these girl or even asked them to bear his child. How weird, what is up with houshi-sama? Maybe it was because of what was happening, but no they had been in weird dangerous situations and he had still hit on women and asked them to bear his child. Hmm ill never understand him, Sango thought.
I hope Sango understands what I'm willing to give up to be with her, wait- atop thinking like that, if you don't defeat Naraku by the end of this year, you wont be around to be with her. This has to end before someone gets hurt…before she gets hurt. Miroku sighed. The truth was they had had many chances to start a relationship but Miroku was always scared that he wouldn't be able to defeat Naraku and that he would end up dieing and it would break eh heart. That is why he had always distanced himself when things got too close between them. Now this tug of war between his heart and his mind was driving him insane.
Inu Yasha opened the door in which he knew that Kagome and Sesshoumaru were in and saw them kissing.
