A/ N: hey again. I went ahead and revised this chapter since I didn't like it. Especially after I had time to reread it after a couple of days. It's basically the same with some minor and major changes. A lot of minor and little major. Anyways I just wanted to mention that. Bye till chapter 2.

Shout outs:  I would like to thank Tiger of the Wind1 for letting me use 2 of her characters from her own stories.  Also, would like to thank Darkside685 for reading over my story before I posted.

DISCLAIMER: *sighs U_U* I still don't own Inuyasha and co. or some of the characters that I will put in here * T_T* but the ones I do own are mine mine mine…^-^

'Where the hell is she?'

He was running through the dense forest with all his might. A red and silver blur to those with an untrained eye.  It was still pitch black outside but his keen eyes saw through it--his powerful legs gliding over the path well worn from travel, in an effortless manner. His long sliver white hair and blood red haori sleeves blowing in the wind he created while running. His two snow white ears were swerving in all directions on top of his head, hearing even the slightest of noises made--sensitive nose catching even the faintest of scents for miles around.

'Kagome'

He had been running all day and was growing very tired, but he wouldn't stop till he got there.

'It's my fault, I should have been there to protect her…..Kuso…I've searched every place she could be--there's not even the faintest trance of her scent anywhere'

He leapt up into the trees, jumping form treetop to treetop--almost as if he was flying; ducking or breaking branches in his way with his sharp claws. He leapt into a clearing away from the dark forest—his haori blowing gently in the wind that had come out of nowhere. There it was-full moon showing its mystical, luring light around the area and upon it- the Bone Eaters Well-were she had first come from her time to his. He had finally reached his destination.

He peered down into its dark depths feeling the power that resonated in it. It always awed him that this well, this old piece of junk that was well worn for its time; had such a power as to bring him the one thing he needed in order to stay alive. At least that was his opinion considering he would never tell anyone that, least he killed them afterward.  He looked up across from it towards were Goshin Boku was; his beautiful golden eyes filled with such sadness it broke ones heart.

"Why Kagome? Why…. why did you have to witness it, why did you have to say all those things."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok this is from my pov of how this all started; starting from the beginning of course.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She stood there behind a tree covered in darkness—even as the bright sunset made the scene around her a brilliant display of orange, red, and yellow. Some of scene, though sad, was cut off by the thickness of the forest. Still, the light weaved in and out of some of the trees in bright sort of-- magical beams--casting the remaining of its dieing light on the forest floor. She was as silent as she could be, for she knew that if he was to hear her make the slightest noise she would be caught by them. They were both standing under the Goshin Boku massive canopy all of the brilliance of the sunset faded into darkness around them. They were facing each other-so that she had a view of both of them from the side. Her shirudamachuu were floating around them occasionally coming so close to where they were that they blocked her view. They were casting there eerie glow on them, making them a light blue then disappearing into a shadow of its former self.  Sure she had seen this sight before her before and it always broke her heart, but for some odd reason she could never just turn away. She was now walking up to him, bringing there bodies closer. Her hand touched his cheek but he didn't move towards it or away.

There voices were low as they started talking that she had strain to here them.

"Inu-Yasha….my love….. you know you still have to keep your promise to me. So tell me, why do you stay here and just not come to hell so we can be together?"

"You know exactly why Kikyo. The Shikon no Tama still has to be completed and with Naraku gaining more power from the shards you took from us, its going to be even tougher for me to defeat him and revenge your death."

"I had my reasons for doing it Inu-Yasha"

"What..for instance.. could that possible reason be?"

"You will learn in due time. But as for you Inu-yasha…I feel as if you're slipping away from me. As if your love for me is going towards another.  That girl…my reincarnate. Tell me Inu-Yasha… do you now love her more than me?"

Her eyes were holding back tears--of betrayal, hatred and possibly even love? He couldn't stand it when she cried. Heck he couldn't stand it when any female cried.  Yet he couldn't deny that what she had said was true. He was falling in love with Kagome with each day that past while they were together. He embraced her, one arm around her thin waist, his hand resting on her back, the other running through her midnight black hair in an effort to take away her tears, her sadness. She sighed in bliss leaning into him more.

"Kikyo, I could never love anyone else over you. You were the first person to treat me kindly, with respect, maybe even the first person to ever love me but..."

He was cut off by her kiss. She had managed to wrap her arms from around his lean muscular body to around his neck pulling him toward her. Her kiss was filled with passion yet it held emptiness only one as the living dead could have. He never returned the kiss though. Then he suddenly heard it, sniffling.

'Kagome'

He broke away from her, ears turning every which way in order to find her. After only a few seconds he knew exactly were she was for she was very close. He turned to walk away and leave but was halted by her cold voice.

"Inu-Yasha"

Her eyes had returned to there original cold, dark nature. There depths burning with a hatred toward only one person who could take him away from her. Her fists were by her side, clenching and unclenching in order to hold in her anger.

"Where are you going?"

He turned his eyes to her. Sadness and hurt was apparent in them yet they also held a tone that said there would be no arguing after what he had to say.

"I have to go to Kagome. If you had let me finish talking, you would have known that I cannot deny that I am in fact falling in love with Kagome. Instead you decided to kiss me before I could finish saying anything."

With that he leapt away after her because apparently she had started to run. She stood there looking after him as he fled into the forest after her.

'That child will pay dearly for this'

Her shinidamachuu swirled around her, there bodies lifting her into the air, slowly disappearing into the night. Making it look like she had never been there.

"Oi…Kagome wait"

She was running away, away from them...from him. She was running blind, hands over her closed eyes trying to keep the tears at bay. Her uniform was getting torn and her legs scratched by the branches of the trees and bushes. She wasn't that hard to catch up with either. Using his demonic speed he easily caught her, soon holding her by both of her arms. He turned her towards him; she was fighting against him not making any progress. She wanted to get away. She opened her eyes. Both of them holding such sadness when he looked into them. Then a spark of anger flashed before him.

"Oswari"

The prayer beads around his neck glowed a brilliant purplish-white, pulling him down to the ground as it dulled. The only problem was since they were so close when she had said it, Kagome was pulled down also. But before he could injure her with his weight, he landed on his arms holding himself a few inches above her. Had there situation been different, they would have both been a deep crimson by now.  He was leaning against her, there bangs blended together in a mixture of white and black, faces nearly touching as they locked eyes--him into her deep chocolate pools and her into his bright sunset gold, his eyes holding such concern for her but at the time she didn't care- her own burning with unshed tears.

"How could you?"

Her voice sounded so meek and so much like a small lost child's.

"Kagome"

There he went again. Saying her name in a way that usually always melted her heart. But not this time.

"No"

She shoved him away, getting out from under him- the spell having finally worn off. They were facing each other- her on her knees, hands in fists on her lap, head down and turned to the side. Him his usual way looking..watching her.

"No. I don't want to here your lies. All I wanted was to stay by your side even though I new I could never have your heart. I wanted you to love me or possibly…maybe…at least…"

Her resolve was broken, tears now streaming freely down her cheeks.

"Kagome….I"

He was getting closer to her, reaching out to her……wanting to comfort her anyway possible. He was then in front of her… hand reaching out to her face wanting to wipe away all her tears but instead she slapped his hand away.

"Don't you dare touch me!"

Ok now he was shocked and confused to say the least. Just a few seconds ago she had been in tears. Now she had an angry aura around her, coming out in powerful waves. A few tears held in her brown eyes. She was standing, looking at him with spite. Her arms to her side, hands in tight fist shaking with suppressed anger.

"Don't you ever touch me Inu-Yasha. I don't want or need your comfort. Just leave me alone! I don't even know why I started falling in love with you in the first place. You're nothing but an arrogant, insensitive, possessive, uncaring for anything except your self and Kikyo bastard! Someone who played with my heart then broke it into a million little pieces, stepping on it to break it into a million more!  I HATE you Inu-yasha!! Oswari, Oswari, Oswari!"

She then proceeded to stomp off deeper into the forest, not really caring were she went at the time just so long as she got away from him. Inu-Yasha just laid there, in his crater shaped hole, waiting for the spell to wear off. What she had said hurt him to the very pit of his soul and he hadn't even had a chance to get to explain or defend himself. First he'd let her cool off then he'd go talk to her.

Back to present

--------------------

After remembering that horrible ideal, he jumped over the side and into the well. The glow of blues, purples, and pinks transported him to the future 500 years from his present time. When he landed on the other side, he climbed out and ran to her window. He leapt into her room, her window always being unlocked ever since the first time he'd visited her. He sniffed around only to discover her lovely scent was days old. After returning to the past, two days had gone by after there fight, and she hadn't been seen. He'd gone back to Musashi's domain hoping that she'd be there by now. Disappointment filled his heart when she wasn't. He sat down in Kaeda-baba chan's hut in a corner, legs crossed and tetsusaiga across his shoulder. Not soon after though he was bombarded and to were Kagome chan was by Miroku, Sango, not to mention a very worried Shippo.  After first being threatened by Sango a few times, he finally told them what had happened, leaving out certain details. Sango and Miroku looked at each other, sharing a knowing look. Shippo on the other hand was in a fit. He wanted his Kagome back. It was always Inu-Yasha's fault that she disappeared. After a few minutes of silence when Shippo cried himself to sleep, Sango spoke suggesting that they get some rest and Kagome would be back when she was ready.

Everyone soon fell asleep except for Inu-yasha. He went out to a tree in-between the village and the well. When he finally got comfortable he looked up to the star filled sky before drifting off into a dreamless sleep.

 'Please kami…let her be alright'

ok people how'd you like it? R&R plez

This is going to be long but I do want you people to plez read this to the end.

 I was going to continue it for a few more pages but I thought this would be as good a place as any to stop. I know I promised u my new character in the beginning but for sure she's going to be introduced in the next chapter, along with one of the two characters Tiger of the Wind1 is letting me use. Thanks again Tiger ^-^.

Oh O_o

incase some of u were wondering what those japenese names were in the story I have the translations after this. I got them from a website which I have to get the name and thank them in the next chappy. Im going to try and put more of the original names in my story.

And FYI.  Yeah I know long and boring. But important ^_~

Some off these stories that I've read had kag's eyes different colors. Mainly blue, brown, or grey. Well I did some research and figured it out. In the anime her eyes are brown, but in the manga (especially if u look at the pictures) they're blue or grey. Now later ill have them changing from there brown now to a bluish-grey later.  

Phew O-O now for the names:

------------------------------------------

Goshin boku- the god tree

Shinidamachuu- Kikyo's soul skimmers

Kuso- damn it

Oi- hey

Kami- god

Musashi's Domain- kaeda's village

--------------------------------------------

Wow! I'm done * jumps around happily*  Thanks for reading this. R&R
