Parings: Kagome and Sesshoumaru Inuyasha and Kikyo

Chapter 1: Helpless and heart broken

Kagome pulled herself out of the well joining together the Common Era and the Futile(sp?) Era where she spent most of her time. Darkness had already fallen on the small village near the well. She knew Inuyasha and the others wouldn't be asleep. She had told them she would be back that night. Aside form that, they almost never slept. In fact, they only stopped because Kagome needed to stop and rest. Sango and Miroku did get tired but they never admitted it of course.

After painstakingly pulling her bag up out of the well, she headed towards the small village, her bag loosely slung over her shoulder. The sun had just set behind the mountains so the last few rays of light shone onto the path to the village. She loved this time period. The air was so fresh. It amazed her that the Common Era was able to pollute the air so badly with unnecessary environmental hazards. All they really needed was a fire and a spear.

Kagome was within a few steps of the edge of the village when Inuyasha finally picked up on her sent. He came jumping from roof top to roof top to great her with his usual, "Where the hell have you been?!"

Sighing, Kagome pulled the other strap of her bag onto her shoulder. "Can't anyone have a quick nap these days!?" She responded, raising her voice at the ignorant half demon.

Inuyasha scowled then turned and started walking towards the mountains to the east. "Common already," He said, angrily, "Sango and Miroku left an hour ago. We're supposed to meet them sometime tonight. Hurry up and get on my back so we can get this over with."

Kagome rolled her eyes and jumped easily onto his back, just as he leaped off the ground and into the nearest tree. This was never her favorite part of traveling with Inuyasha but it sure beat walking. She had left her bicycle at home this time. She often ended up carrying it and she didn't want to slow them down.

A small light appeared for the Shikon Jewel shard Kikyo held in her hand. The shard was nearly hole. All the work Inuyasha and Naraku had put in to collect them was finally paying off. There were only a few more left out there. An almost happy smiled formed on the woman's face as she thought about finally being rid of the damn jewel. She could finally get rid of that horrid Kagome girl and claim Inuyasha for herself.

Kikyo smiled as she thought about the young half demon. She realized that Inuyasha had refused to come after her as of yet. "He's still collecting the remaining shards," She laughed, "But once he has them, he will be mine."

Tucking the jewel into her sleeve, Kikyo stood up. Picking up her bow and arrows, she called forth her sole catchers who wrapped around her, lifting her into the air.

'He'll come for me soon enough,' she though, 'He won't be able to resist. After fifty years, he's still in love with me. He won't let me go that easy.'

"What took you so long Kagome?!" asked Shippo curiously, his bushy tail twitching a bit.

"Just taking a nap. Sorry it took so long Shippo." The little fox demon jumped onto her shoulder and sat down. This was his favorite spot. Kagome seamed to be the only one who was nice to him. Inuyasha was constantly striking the little fox and being so young, Shippo had no idea why.

"So Inuyasha," Miroku began, "Were are we going to look for jewel shards now? Isn't Kikyo the only person with Jewel shards we know of?" Miroku had a knack of getting on Inuyasha's nerve but unlike the others, Inuyasha didn't seam to mess with Miroku as much as Shippo and Kagome. 'Probably because of my wind tunnel,' Miroku thought to himself as he waited for an answer from the white-haired demon.

Inuyasha got stubborn again, "No. We'll get those from her later. Besides, how do we know she hasn't given them back to Naraku or something? There's no telling where they really are." Inuyasha crossed his arms and sat down roughly. 'I wonder if she's going to let me use the jewel to become human,' Inuyasha thought to himself, 'or will she give it to someone else? Or might she destroy it?' He let out a soft sigh and looked down at the blazing fire in front of him.

Kagome sighed, 'He just won't give up, will he.' She thought to herself, resting her chin on the palm of her hand. 'Why must he be so stubborn about her? Sure, he loves her, but whenever we mention her, he always mopes.' Kagome still didn't know where she found the patients so put up with him. Her own emotions were hard enough to deal with but adding another teenager to them. it was chaos.

"Then where do you suppose we look? We don't know where Naraku is or if he even has any more shards. So what's the point of looking for him?" Sango inquired as she petted the fuzzy cat-like demon in her lap. Kilala purred softy, his three tails swaying back and forth as Sango scratched him behind the ears.

"The point is revenge!" Snapped Inuyasha, "He killed Kikyo, remember? And Miroku will die if we don't kill him!" Naraku had dome something terrible to every one of them. Well, almost. He hadn't touched Kagome as of yet. 'I'll kill him if he even tries it,' Inuyasha thought to himself.

Sango sighed and shook her head. She decided to let him have his way. It wasn't a great idea to pick a fight with him. Especially over Kikyo. He always got really defensive whenever someone brought up Kikyo. If Naraku hadn't trapped them and she hadn't died, they would still be together.

Inuyasha stood up and looked off towards the forest. Something was out there in the woods, watching them. He knew the scent but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. He took a few steps towards the edge of the forest when it hit him. 'Kikyo,' he thought to himself, his eyes growing slightly. "I'll be right back," He lied, "We need more fire wood." And with that, he ran quickly into the forest, not waiting for a reply from his comrades.

Kagome looked at the diminishing pile of logs next to her. She turned her head back to Inuyasha and watched him walk off into the forest. "There's something strange going on. We do need more fire wood, but he's the last person to go and get it." She whispered to Sango, Miroku and Shippo.

"Yes," Miroku said softly, "Maybe we should follow him Kagome. If I know Inuyasha, he would never go anywhere to collect firewood. He'd cut down every tree in the premises with his sword and call it done."

Kagome nodded slightly, "Your right, he would. But I don't think we should go after him. He can take care of himself. I'm just worried he'll do something stupid."

"Which wouldn't be too out of character for him," Shippo added, grinning. Shippo scampered away as soon as he said that, forgetting that Inuyasha wasn't around. If he had been, Shippo would have gotten hit on the head for the third time that day. He was beginning to learn what comments would cause Inuyasha to become angry with him.

Kagome shook her head and smiled a bit, "Maybe your right Miroku. I'll follow him." She stood up and grabbed her bow and arrows, "I won't be too long."

"You're going to go alone Kagome?" Shippo asked as he jumped onto Miroku's head and looked after Kagome. Shippo always seamed to be looking after Kagome. It wasn't like he could do anything to help her if she was in danger, but he could still try to keep her out of danger.

"Yes Shippo. He will be less likely to detect me if I'm alone. I won't be gone long. If he was telling the truth, we'll be back in a few minuets." Kagome replied as she walked off towards the woods in which Inuyasha had just passed though.

Shippo nodded and watched Kagome as she disappeared into he forest. The little fox demon jumped off Miroku's head and curled up next to Kilala who had leapt of Sango's lap and found a soft place near the fire.

"Damn," Inuyasha muttered to himself, "I know that scent. Kikyo is near by. but where? I can't find her anywhere." The scent wasn't as close as he had thought. There was a slight breeze that was caring it closer to him. 'This could take a while.' He thought.

He landed in a tall tree and looked down into a valley below. A small river flew through the middle the trees were heavily surrounding it. He sighed and leaped on to the next tree. 'In this mess of foliage, it's going to take forever to find her,' he thought to himself.

As Inuyasha neared the river, the scent began to get stronger and stronger. "Kikyo!" He called over and over again but still got no answer. The scent of his old love continued to grow as he traveled quickly down the banks of the small river, his feet occasionally splashing the water as he went.

A sharp bend interrupted the easy flow of the stream and upon rounding it, Inuyasha found exactly where the scent was coming from. "Kikyo," he whispered as he walked slowly over to the sleeping woman.

Kikyo was half lying half sitting on the ground next to a tree. Her breathing was soft and light, as if she was whispering to Inuyasha to come closer. In a trance, he walked over to her knelt down in front of her, "Kikyo," he whispered again.

The young woman's black eyes flew open suddenly to meet the bright yellow orbs of Inuyasha. "What are you doing here?" she said, rather angrily.

"I caught your scent." The half demon responded, "Do you wish me to leave?" he asked softly as he reached out to touch her face. Kikyo always seamed to do this to him. Ever time he saw her he froze for a moment then could not comprehend anything but love for her. 'If only she felt the same way,' He thought as he watched the young woman.

Kagome walked quickly thought he forest. By this time she was sure inuyasha wasn't getting firewood. She had been able to follow him for a while because he left and occasional foot print but when she came to a river, she lost him.

"Where could he be?" She thought to herself as she walked slowly down the riverbank. It was getting darker and the half moon was barley enough light for her to see. She was just about ready to turn around and trace her steps back to the camp when she heard voices from around a bend in the river.

Quickening her pace, she soon realized that the voices she heard were those belonging to Inuyasha and Kikyo! But something was different. they were not arguing. Quite the contrary in fact. They were whispering to each other. Kagome couldn't make out the words. She rounded the bend and ducked behind a tree when she saw the two of them.

The two were seated below a large tree, their legs and arms entwined. Kagome's arrows dropped to the ground. Inuyasha leaned over and kissed the young woman. Kagome's heart was racing in her chest. 'How could he?' she thought.

Slowly she dropped to her knees on the ground, the twigs beneath her snapping with her weight. Kagome's eyes were fixed on Inuyasha and Kikyo who had heard the noise and where looking directly at her.

Inuyasha stood up and looked at her, "Kagome," he whispered. 'What have I done now?' he though, 'she's never going to forgive me for this one.'

Kikyo stood up as well and wrapped her arms around Inuyasha, "He's mine now little girl." Kikyo smiled to herself as she watched the little girl, 'I may be able to get rid of her sooner than I thought.' She thought to herself.

Kagome's eyes filled with tears. He was gone. Kikyo had claimed Inuyasha for her own. Forgetting her bow on the ground and unaware of the direction she was going, she ran into the woods, Helpless and broken hearted.
