Inu: Hello, all. Sara is, at the moment, watching a Kansas University basketball game. So, I have taken the liberty to write this chapter and make it all better. I mean, all the suspense and drama gets exhausting to read. I think this chapter will be a little calmer and maybe even happier, if I don't get caught writing it . . . if she caught me messing with her story . . . I don't know what will happen. Hopefully nothing since she's in love with me. Well, she doesn't own the characters of my show, so, don't sue her. She wouldn't be very happy and I don't want to be here if she is. That is a death wish right there.

Makinglifeabetterplace: Don't apologize to the wench. She shoulda made a better effort at saying that I was fallin for Sara, the wolf hanyou. Well, as for Kagome, she was telling me earlier that she was thinking of hookin her up with that damn wolf youkai. Yeah, it did take her forever to update. She was too fuckin wrapped up in doing her damn homework that she didn't. Hey, what's this? * reads sticky note on computer * Oh, so you are 'Update- ing One?' I have heard so much about you, or well, read so much about you. Well, keep reviewing and I am sure she'll keep updating. And, * turns head and sits with his arms folded in his haori * I don't care if you woulda cared if she told me. I woulda beat it out of her anyway.

HieiKitty -or- PhibbiKitty: He, Hi to you too. I don't think Sara would actually stand there and cry on her brother's shoulder in real life. HAHA!!! * rolls on ground in uncontrollable laughter * You have Miroku with you!!

Feh, that's enough babbling. On with the chapter. Now, This chapter is after Kagome releases me from the tree. So it is 50 years later. Miroku, Sango, and Shippo are in our little group thingy. Don't forget that Youkai blood keeps youkai and hanyous' from showing signs of aging. Keep that in mind as you read MY chapter.

~*~Chapter Twelve: Love Will Bring Us Together~*~

"Oi! Wench! Hurry your ass up and fix me Ramen!" The silver haired boy with dog-like ears on his head jumped down from his spot in the tree above the camp. His human companions were gathered around the fire, as one in particular busied herself with the instant noodles.

"Inu Yasha," the apparent school girl, sporting a green-plaid skirt, a white blouse, and a red tie, stated as she poured the contents of the small pouch into the pot, "if you want some, then I suggest you be nice. We are near Koga's den, and I am sure he'd love to come and kick your butt." She reached for another packet of Ramen.

Inu Yasha 'feh'-ed and told her to hurry. Kagome loved to throw the fact that Koga liked her in his face. Ever since he had gotten her back after the battle with the Birds of Paradise and Koga had claimed her as 'his', she would tell Inu Yasha that she would run off with Koga and help him find the jewel shards. She didn't actually mean that she would, but she loved the reaction she got from the comments. Sure, she liked that wolf youkai, but she wasn't sure if there could be more between them as long as she was with Inu Yasha, and Inu Yasha was still hung up over Kikyo. (Inu: Hai, she still thinks I am in love with Kikyo.)

Sango glanced at Miroku, who was watching the scene in great amusement. The fact that Kagome had Inu Yasha, literally, by the collar with her subdueing spell and now with the comments of Koga, had him locked in a trance. Sango watched the houshi in great wander. 'What is this man thinking?' He sent a look her way and their eyes locked. The amusement apparent in his, and the wander in hers, made them both ask the same question: 'What is he/she thinking?'

"Gosh, Inu Yasha," a child-like voice called him from beside Kagome, "she really has you. Maybe you should get a leash and have her pull you around every where." Sango and Miroku were pulled out of each other's hypnotic glance when they heard the kitsune throw in his own opinion, or a death wish, depending on if you were paying attention to the response.

Shippo's eyes widened as his small, clawed hand flew to his mouth. He hadn't ment to say it aloud, it just flew off his tongue. But, before anyone or anything could save him, the kitsune was running full blast from a very peeved hanyou. Curses were hanging in the air as the fight for life began. Kagome had had enough. She decided to do it. He wouldn't be too happy, but it would save Shippo's life. . . for now.

"SIT!!!"

~*~

Koga's youkai ears picked up the voice. Even though he was supposed to be waiting for his sister, he couldn't help be distracted. A smirk came to his face when he thought of the possible scenarios that could have befallen the hanyou for such a scream. He was caught up in his own thoughts that he didn't notice a figure sneaking up behind him. She took her katana and held it to his throat. He froze, but relaxed as he recognized the smell voice.

"What's this? A wolf youkai caught with his guard down?"

"Good-evening, dear sister." He calmly, but happily said as she removed her katana. He turned to face her. The time that had passed hadn't changed her much. She still looked young, only now around 18 instead of 15. When the workload with her father was too much for her to take, she would go and hang around with Koga. It had bee six months. Although she was always happy to see her brother and childhood friends, only this particular visit held a more captivating reason, which made her glow with the joy she felt. "Have you had a good trip?" He hugged her, and she reacted the same manner.

"I have wonderful news, boy!" She said as she looked up into Koga's eyes. They softened when she used his nickname. "I have decided to stop helping Father. There is no reason to, because there hasn't been trouble for some time." His smile grew when he heard the announcement. He was going to be able to be with his sister again. "And I have even more glorious news! I have his scent! His spell has lifted!" His eyes were filled with shock.

"The one whom you love? The guy who was taken from you?" Sara nodded. She embraced her again, lifting her off her feet and twirling three times before placing her on the ground. "That's wonderful! And, since you have found that your love lives, I would love for you to meet who I am hoping is mine."

Sara nodded, excited that her older brother had found someone he loved. So, off they went, in search for the one Koga loved. Little did they know, two loves would be reacquainted before the night was through.
