A/N: heheh, sry I haven't put up this chapter sooner. My life suddenly became sooo complicated and I was too busy to write another chapter. I started getting to caught up in my social life and now I'm not as into Inuyasha as I was before.*sniff sniff* sad isn't it? Oh well. It's winter break right now so my life's not as busy so I decided I should start righting again. I jus hope this chapter will be as good as the last one (since I'm not so into inuyasha anymore I might not put as much feeling into the story) anyways, last time I forgot to mention that this story is NOT just the real story (like in the anime) with some thoughts of kikyo. Every event is all original and made up by me.

the song used in this chapter is called "Long Ago" by Mariah Carey. Now on with the story.

Chapter 2: "Long Ago"

***Once upon a time

You whispered softly in my ear

Loving words and fairytales

That I longed to hear***

She turned around and I saw her face. At that very moment, I froze.

She was.she was.me? No! it couldn't be! But.her face, she looks just like me! How could this be?

***I gave you my body and soul

And you took control

As you slowly swept me up

And carried me away ***

"Kikyo! May ye please come down here for a moment? I would like ye to meet someone," shouted Kaede up the tree I was standing on.

I jumped down the tree and followed Kaede. She led me to the well where Inuyasha and that girl were.

Kaede gestured towards the girl, "Kikyo, this is Kagome. Ye might have noticed that she looks very much like ye. That is because, she is ye reincarnation." Kaede explained it all. She explained about where the girl comes from, what happened to the jewel, everything. Which, for some reason, made me dislike the girl even more.

"Kagome, this is Kikyo," Kaede said, as she gestured towards me.

The girl, Kagome, held her hand forward to shake mine, "hi, nice to meet you! ^^"

I looked down at her hand, then up at her, then I looked at Inuyasha.

I didn't say anything to anyone. I just walked around the girl and stared at her like a vulture stares at its pray. She didn't look worried, but Inuyasha looked at me like he was going to attack me if I went any closer to the girl. I could tell I wasn't wanted, by Inuyasha anyways, so I left and went back to the Goshinboku tree.

***You told me pretty lies

As I held onto you tight

You knew how to get your way

Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace***

***************************************************

That night, I watched as Inuyasha tucked Kagome in and kissed her goodnight. I did not want to see anymore of this immature little girl with Inuyasha. I did not want her to haunt my dreams as well. So I lay down on a branch of the Goshinboku and closed my eyes, about to drift to sleep.

***Long ago

You used to want me

Now it's all so far away

But you still haunt me

And take me back to yesterday ***

****************************************************

"Kikyo! Kikyo! Wake up!"

I heard my name and opened my eyes to see Inuyasha standing below the Goshinboku calling me to come down. I jumped down beside him and stared at his beautiful golden eyes shine in the moonlight and his soft, long silver hair swaying in the gentle summer breeze. Oh, how handsome he looks. Oh, how I lov---NO! I must not give in to these feelings! He is a demon! A beast! He betrayed me and took advantage of my trust, and my love. He deserves nothing more than to die at my grasp!

I raised my hand, wanting to choke him to death right there and then. But, I could not do it. I just couldn't! no matter how hard I try, I just can't bring myself to hurt him. But, why? I wanted to bring him to his death. I wanted to with all my heart, I really did! Or.did I?

***Every now and then

I drown in thoughts of yesterday

And the fools' paradise that you blew away

I feel you beside me again

And remember when you came to my window

On a dark and stormy day***

I lowered my hand to hear what he came here to talk to me about.

He stared at me from top to bottom with his mouth half open and his eyes shimmering. I grew impatient.

"Speak! I don't have all night! Do you have something to tell me or not?!?" I yelled at him.

"Kikyo, I.I." he stuttered.

"Well? What is it?"

Suddenly, he lept towards me and embraced me. I could feel his muscled arms wrapped tightly around me and his firm chest. I could almost hear his heart pounding, and mine too. for a moment, I felt warm and almost alive again. But then, I came back to reality and quickly pushed him away.

***Baby, I need you now

Tonight I'm crumbling down

Sinking in the memories

Shadows of you keep washing over me***

"Do not touch me, u beast! Do you have something important to tell me? If not, leave my presence this instant!" I shouted.

"Kikyo, I've.I've.missed you." Inuyasha said.

"You've missed me? Ha! Liar! If you have ever cared for me at all, then why did you betray me?" I felt my eyes watering and teardrops starting to fall and swiftly turned away and continued my rambling, "How dare you Inuyasha? You said you loved me!"

"I didn't betray you! It was Naraku!"

"Naraku? You dare lie to me even more? You dare blame your mistakes on some innocent man?"

"But Kikyo! It's true! Ask Kaede! Ask anyone! Ask Kagome!"

"Hmm.Kagome. That wretched little girl. You love HER now. Do you not?"

"Kikyo I---"

"NO! I do not want to hear anymore of your lies! Leave me at once!"

"but, but---"

"LEAVE ME!"

***Long ago

You used to want me

Now it's all so far away

But you still haunt me***

As Inuyasha fled away, I sat at the bottom of the Goshinboku and let my tears flow. Why are these tears running? How could I still care about anything Inuyasha says? How could I still care for such a monster?

All these pleading thoughts and tears led me to sleep.

***Long ago

You used to want me

Now it's all so far away

But you still haunt me

And take me back to yesterday***
