on with the story....
"Uhm....what just happened?" Sota asked emerging from his room wondering what all the noise was about. He ran down the stairs and saw the half-demon pacing in the living room. Not* very happy either.
"Inuyasha?" He asked timidly.
Inuyasha turned glaring at him; without saying a word.
"What happened?"
"Feh. Your sister is so damn stubborn!" He yelled. "She doesn't believe a thing I say!"
"What do you mean? What just happened?"
Inuyasha sighed. "Just..forget about it." He said, trying to keep Sota out of the problem.
"I'm going to pay a visit to Miroku, Sango and Shippo in my world. I'll be back by dinner. Stay here." He ordered.
Sota nodded as his eyes followed the half-demon out the door until he disappeared.
"Stupid girl....never believes anything I say.." He mumbled jumping into the well.
He jumped out of the well, still angry and rushed to find Sango and Miroku.
************************************************************************
Miroku and Sango were sitting in front of a lake, staring at the view. Sango was playing with Kirara and Miroku merely stared at her. After a few minutes, he broke the silence.
"Sango......things have been pretty hard for us...It's only a matter of time under my wind tunnel consumes my body. I-I just wanted to-----"
"Don't talk like that." Sango said angrily. "You're always such a pessimist. Where is all this coming from?"
"No listen, many* things have happened the last few weeks. I can't put it off any longer. And you know what I mean.... I just wanted to say you mean a lot to me."
Sango looked at him oddly. "Are you okay Miroku?"
"Yes, I'm okay. Sango, that's the truth."
Sango smiled at him knowingly and he grabbed her hand.
"I feel the same way." Sango whispered.
***********************************************************
After following his nose for about five minutes, he finally caught up with them. Something was different about Miroku and Sango......It felt like, he interrupted them and their scent was odd too. He found them in front of a lake, in very odd positions. Sango had her head on Miroku's shoulder and Miroku had his head on hers. Inuyasha just stared at them and gave a cocky smile.
He crept up behind them and they didn't notice.
"Miroku, when do you think Kagome and Inuyasha are going to get back?" She asked quietly.
"I don't know. Hopefully not for a long time." He responded.
Inuyasha stared at them. 'What do they mean by that?' He thought. 'Did something...happen?' He thought.
Miroku turned around and saw Inuyasha.
"INUYASHA! Ahem. I mean, Inuyasha, what brings you here?" He asked.
"Well I'm glad to see you two have....uhm...gotten together."
Sango blushed. "We were just....talking."
"Oh, yea sure sure. Talking and getting together?"
Sango blushed furiously.
"Well are you going to give me an answer?"
Sango gave a slight nod and turned away quickly. Miroku was staring down at the floor timidly. Things were going pretty good for him, even better since now he had Sango.
Miroku then got a little uncomfortable and sighed. "Inuyasha, what brings you here?" He repeated.
"I wanted to talk to you."
"Alright then, let's talk. Sango, stay here." Miroku said happily.
Sango nodded and sat down looking at the view.
Wait, where's Shippo?"
"Miroku and Sango blushed. "Er......he went off, for some reason."
Inuyasha smirked at them and laughed. "Oh."
Miroku cleared his throat and motioned for Inuyasha to follow.
"So what was it that you wanted to talk about?" He asked when they were a great distance away from Sango.
"Uhm, well.....I've been having some....problems with-----"
"Kagome?" Miroku finished.
"Uh, yea. How'd you know?" He asked looking straight at the monk. Miroku shrugged and stared at him.
"So what about her?"
"Do you have any suggestions? The woman won't believe a freakin' word I say!" He said angrily.
"Have you ever thought that it was your temper and your loyalty to Kikyo that caused her to remain disbelieving to you?" He asked.
Inuyasha grew dead silent.
"I......I haven't said anything about Kikyo!" He yelled defensively. "AND I'VE TOLD HER MORE THAN TWICE THAT I CHOOSE HER AND NOT KIKYO! BUT SHE WON'T LISTEN!"
"Calm down, Inuyasha. I understand about your fury. But, there is no need to take it out on me my friend."
"Feh! You should talk! It's easy for you because you already have SANGO! At least she believes you!! WHERE AS ME..? KAGOME DOESN'T BELIEVE A FREAKIN' WORD I'VE SAID!!"
"Are you sure you told her straight forward?"
"Yes! I EVEN KISSED HER!"
Miroku gave Inuyasha a perverted smile. "Oh....was that all you did?"
"SHUT UP!" Inuyasha said whacking him on the head. Miroku then had a huge bump on his head.
"It was merely an innocent question." He said, rubbing his head.
"Pervert. Can't you think of anything else?!" He said still angry.
"Wow Inuyasha, Kagome must have really dumped you. I've never seen you this angry."
Inuyasha hit him again, harder in the head.
"DUMPED ME?! WHAT THE HECK MAKES YOU THINK SHE DUMPED ME!! YOU STUPID MONK!!!!"
"What, may I ask then, are you so defensive about?" He asked, twirling his staff.
"I'M NOT GETTING DEFENSIVE!!!! WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT?!" He asked angrily, stomping and pacing in the grass.
"You're stomping around and yelling my friend." He answered ever so calm.
Inuyasha growled. "WELL? ANY SUGGESTIONS?! OH FOR GOODNESS SAKE! AT LEAST* KIKYO BELIEVES ME!!!" He said, suddenly stopping realizing what he said.
"Ki...kyo." He whispered.
"Inuyasha, are you truly over Kikyo?"
"I'm still going to avenge her, so no."
"I mean in matters of love." Miroku said.
"What do you mean? How cold I forget her? She died because of me. I can't possibly forget her." He sighed.
"Listen to yourself, Inuyasha." The monk said quietly. "Put yourself in Kagome's point of view. What would you think?"
"She knows I don't mean it like that!" He said angrily. "I mean I can't forget her because I owe everything to her! That doesn't mean I love her anymore!"
"Oh, really? Than why hasn't she responded to anything you've said or done? If I were Kagome, I'd think you're nothing but a two-timer, and I'd stay away to avoid heartbreak." Miroku said beginning to become very theatrical. He started doing hand movements and was getting very dramatic. Inuyasha ignored the monks "poses" and realized that the monk's words were actually true.
"Miroku, help me out here." Inuyasha said trying to stop the monks "tragic" play.
"What do you want me to do?" He asked.
Inuyasha sighed and put his head down and swallowed hard. "I'd better get going."
Miroku looked at him oddly and sighed. "Inuyasha, you're not doing anything dangerous are you?"
"Feh! That's none of your business, monk." He said running out of the monks view. Miroku shrugged. Sango walked into the clearing. "Sango!" He said happily.
Sango smiled back at him.
"I hope everything goes well for Inuyasha and Kagome. Just like it did for us." She replied sadly.
"Don't worry Sango, I'm sure it will. Inuyasha just needs to realize everything he said." He replied.
*********************************************************
Inuyasha ran across the fields and searched. He couldn't pick up that scent. He needed to tell her. He was going to choose Kagome and he felt like she should know.
"Kikyo, where are you?" He asked himself.
"You called, Inuyasha?" Kikyo said appearing out of nowhere.
"Where...Where'd you come from?"
Kikyo didn't answer. "What do you want?"
"I-----I've come to tell you that I've made my choice."
"Oh..?" She asked with a great bitterness in her voice.
"Yes I choose------"
"Wait, before say anything," Kikyo responded, "It doesn't matter who you choose."
Inuyasha looked at her oddly. 'Why is she acting so understanding?' He thought.
"It doesn't matter who you choose. Because I'll keep Kagome out of this time either way. She only get you killed later, at least I have faith in you." She said giving a cocky smile.
'Should have seen that one coming. Then again, Kikyo always did believe me.' Inuyasha thought.
"Kikyo, you need to understand you're-----"
"I'm what?"
Inuyasha breathed in deeply. "You....you're not of this world anymore."
Kikyo smirked. "You owe it to me to avenge me. At least that is what you have said. Did you know that when the Sacred Shikon no Tama becomes whole you could wish me back to life?"
'My plan's working, he's getting second thoughts.' She thought. 'The Shikon no Tama could never bring me back, but if I have to lie to take Inuyasha to hell with me, I'll do it.' She thought with an evil smile to her ideas.
Inuyasha was shocked. "It....what?"
"Yes, it'll bring me back.....I know what you're thinking. You're thinking maybe it'll just bring back the soul in this; now my frozen recreation, full of hatred and unable to love." She smirked.
"Well, it brings back my soul, my real soul before Onigumo and Naraku interrupted our lives. Don't you want to stay together Inuyasha?"
"I......."
'I never knew the jewel could bring her back to life....But Kagome....I....' He thought.
"We can go back to all those times we had together. We could live together just like we wished before the demons ruined our lives."
"But I----------"
Kikyo put up a finger to silence him.
"I know, you feel attached to that girl too. But remember you two live in different worlds...Different times...How would people react in her world if they saw a half-demon? And I'm not talking about your sake, I know you don't care about yourself, you only care if the people you care about are okay. Think about her. It would ruin her life if she was with a hanyou. Humans are killed for even talking to demons, what more in her world?"
'She...she's got a point. Kagome....she could be in danger. I don't want her to get hurt, emotionally or physically.' He thought.
"What were you going to say, Inuyasha?" Kikyo asked looking him straight in the eye.
"Uhm..."
'Maybe I should consider this first.'
"I forgot. Sorry I brought you here for nothing. I'd better get going." He said, it was already dark and he promised Sota he'd be back by dinner.
"That's alright Inuyasha." Kikyo said after he left. "I've got you.....right in the palm of my hand." She grinned laughing to herself.
*****************************************************************
Dinner was over and Kagome and Sota were getting worried. Inuyasha still hadn't gotten back.
"Where did he say he was going?" Kagome asked.
"What so now* you're worried about him?" He asked, rather irritated.
"What do you mean?" She said, looking at her brother oddly.
"Why don't you ever believe anything that Inuyasha says? Why would he lie?"
Kagome sighed. "You don't understand. I know* he loves Kikyo. I don't want to get mixed up in the brawl."
"Sis you need to listen and stop judging. NEXT time he says something, listen and don't interrupt."
"What do you know? You're only a little kid."
"Well, that goes too ways, for a little kid, I must be pretty smart. I know when to listen and not to listen. Where as you don't. So, either you're really stubborn or just that your intelligence level isn't very good." He said not looking at her.
"Who have you been talking too? You don't talk like that."
"Heh, sis people say the weirdest things when they get frustrated. Do me a favor and listen* to him. Sis.....you need to consider this. If you keep pushing him away, some day some time, some other woman who believes everything he says will fall for him. I know it won't happen in a while, Inuyasha is really loyal. But, think about it will you sis?"
Kagome didn't respond. She merely sighed and went up to her room.
'Even Sota.' She thought to herself. 'How can everyone be so blind thinking he really cares for me? Or......is it me that's blind? No, it can't be me.' She said to herself.
'Fine, I'll listen the next time he says anything.' She thought not knowing what just occurred between Inuyasha and Kikyo.
*********************************************************************
"It's already dark! It's way past dinner!" Inuyasha said, wondering what Sota; more importantly; what Kagome was thinking.
He sped towards the well and jumped in. In a flash he was back in Kagome's world. He looked at the clock which Sota had taught him how to read. 'Late. Late five* hours.' He said staring at the clock. "It's already one." He mumbled walking up the stairs. Sota pushed open his door and stared at Inuyasha.
"Where were you Inuyasha?" Sota asked.
"Sorry kid, I had some things to do."
*Flashback*
Kikyo looked at him defiantly. "I know, you feel attached to that girl too. But remember you two live in different worlds...Different times...How would people react in her world if they saw a half-demon? And I'm not talking about your sake, I know you don't care about yourself, you only care if the people you care about are okay. Think about her. It would ruin her life if she was with a hanyou. Humans are killed for even talking to demons, what more in her world?"
*End Flashback*
"Where's Kagome?" He asked looking around.
Sota laughed. "Inuyasha, it's one in the morning, she's a asleep; of course."
"I've got a feeling that she isn't." He whispered.
*Flashback*
"Did you know that when the Shikon No Tama is completed, you could wish me back to life?"
*End Flashback*
"And why do you say that?"
"I dunno. It's this weird feeling that I have. I know when she's around, I know when she's up, when she's asleep, when she's talking...."
*Flashback*
"Think about it." Kikyo said looking him straight in the eye.
*End Flashback*
Sota laughed. "You've gone crazy."
"What?"
"You have. Knowing all that, you must really* watch her.....A LOT.
Inuyasha blushed. "Uhm....I don't really have a choice. Uh, you know Shikon Shard search and all...." He said trying to make up an excuse.
"Oh sure Inuyasha." Sota said knowingly. "Hey, I'm a boy too, I know* what you're doing. Your trying to hide all your feelings."
Inuyasha took a step back. "How....I mean what makes you think that? Feh!" He said turning around not facing the little boy.
"Your so cool Inuyasha." He said happily tugging on the dog-demon's sleeve.
"What?" Inuyasha asked.
"It's one in the morning. I'm getting back to sleep. You should too, so you can wake up early enough to see my sister! You know you want too!" He said laughing, running into his room.
Inuyasha smiled a bit, then covered it up again. "I'll get back at you, tomorrow." He whispered, not wanting to wake Kagome or any of the others.
************************************************************
"Is that Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered to herself in her room. He was right, she wasn't asleep.
"Maybe I should apologize to him; it was pretty rude of me to go off like that." She mumbled.
"No....I'll do it tomorrow."
The sun rose. It was 6:30 in the morning. Kagome rose from bed and yawning. She rubbed the sleep from he eyes and sighed.
"First day of vacation and I wake up at 6:30." Kagome yawned and all the things that happened yesterday came flooding into her head.
She walked out of her room still in her pajamas. She walked down the stairs groggily, still tired. She stopped when she saw a certain half-demon playing Playstation with her brother.
"No fair!" Sota yelled.
Inuyasha shrugged. "Uhm....what just happened?" To tell the truth, he was only pressing those "button" things and had no idea what the point of this game was.
"You beat me, again." Sota said sadly.
'That scent.' Inuyasha thought to himself. 'Kagome!' He thought frantically.
He turned around slowly and sure enough there was Kagome. 'She looks beautiful when she wakes up to.' He thought.
"Snap out of it Inuyasha. You might get her hurt." He said to himself, remembering Kikyo's words.
"What did you say something?" Sota asked, looking at Inuyasha then turning to find his sister.
"Good morning." She said to both of them.
"Morning Sis." Sota said looking back at the game.
Inuyasha just stared. "Uhm...Morning Kagome."
'What wrong with him? He's acting weird.' She thought.
"Have you two eaten breakfast yet?"
"Yup!" Sota responded turning off the game.
Inuyasha sighed and stared at his Tetsuaiga.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
Sota smiled and ran up to his room.
Inuyasha and Kagome both looked at Sota oddly, and the little boy yelled from his room, "I'm just...cleaning my room! You two keep talking! Don't mind me!" He said, wanting to give them a little privacy.
"Uhm, what were you saying Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.
"Uh....I just wanted to....uhm apologize for yelling at you the other day...uh.yea.."
"Um, yea. That's okay. I'm sorry for going off like that." He said awkwardly.
"What were you going to tell the other day?"
*Flashback*
"I know you care for her, but she might get hurt.
*End Flashback*
"Well you see............"

....Should I continue...?
Well that's the end of Chapter 20! Chapter 21 coming up! Thanks to everyone who read and reviewed!! Thanks to everyone who said this was a great story!! I really appreciate it!!
To: Litwolf89
Q: Was Miroku's dad and grandfather killed by their air voids or did it disappear when they had their sons and they just died of other causes?
A: Miroku's dad and grandfather were both killed by their kazaanas (or air voids.). When they had their sons, the air voids were still in their hands still growing and sucking up their body. In fact, in one of the episodes, they showed a flashback from Miroku's life when he watched his father get sucked into the air void. He was only around five or six.
Well I hope I answered your question!!!!! Please continue to read and review!!! Feel free to ask anything else!! And remember, when you do an email-address you can email me anytime with questions! I love em!!!! Do you like the story so far? THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING AND REVIEWING!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! PLEASE CONTINUE TO R/R!
To: Inuyasha 94
Q: I know Sesshomaru has a half-brother which is Inuyasha and Inuyasha's mother died so what happened to Sesshomaru's mother?
A: Well, ^__^ .. When Inuyasha's father met Inuyasha's mother, he left his former demon wife to be with her. I assume that Sesshomaru's mother just left. I assume she was probably angry with Inuyasha's father, because demons basically always hate humans. Not much information has been given about his mother, but I have also heard that now at this time in the series she has already passed away. Sorry if that wasn't much of an answer!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING AND REVIEWING!!!! Do you like the story so far? THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO R/R!! Feel free to ask any more!!! I love questions!!! :DDDD
Well those are the only questions I got!
And now I ask all the people who read this....do you like it?

BUT ANYWAY....THANKS TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO LIKED IT!! I REALLY OWE IT ALL TO YOU!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO READ AND REVIEW!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
The Miroku and Sango fluff stuff:
Just in case anyone is wondering, Miroku and Sango are* now together. I was really actually planning on a lot more of fluff and a really* really* good get together, but lots of people suggested they should get together now. ^__^ So I guess I just cut that out. But if anyone wants the original, if I get enough reviews about that, I may put it up. But as of now, I'll just keep that up. :DDDD
To all the people that ask about when Kikyo ruins everything, well if you read the chapter, now you know why. ^__^ Please continue to post your reasons and comments about her!!
Oh, and if anyone doesn't mind, I'm kind of trying to prove to some people that Inu/Kag make a great couple, so could you please post some reasons about them being a great couple too? Of course I'm talking to the Inu/Kag fans and anyone else that supports them. ^__^
THANKS SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO REVIEWED!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

"We can go back to all those times we had together. We could live together just like we wished before the demons ruined our lives."
"But I----------"
Kikyo put up a finger to silence him.
"I know, you feel attached to that girl too. But remember you two live in different worlds...Different times...How would people react in her world if they saw a half-demon? And I'm not talking about your sake, I know you don't care about yourself, you only care if the people you care about are okay. Think about her. It would ruin her life if she was with a hanyou. Humans are killed for even talking to demons, what more in her world?"
'She...she's got a point. Kagome....she could be in danger. I don't want her to get hurt, emotionally or physically.' He thought.
"What were you going to say, Inuyasha?" Kikyo asked looking him straight in the eye.
"Uhm..."
'Maybe I should consider this first.'
"I forgot. Sorry I brought you here for nothing. I'd better get going." He said, it was already dark and he promised Sota he'd be back by dinner.
"That's alright Inuyasha." Kikyo said after he left. "I've got you.....right in the palm of my hand." She grinned laughing to herself.
*****************************************************************
Dinner was over and Kagome and Sota were getting worried. Inuyasha still hadn't gotten back.
"Where did he say he was going?" Kagome asked.
"What so now* you're worried about him?" He asked, rather irritated.
"What do you mean?" She said, looking at her brother oddly.
"Why don't you ever believe anything that Inuyasha says? Why would he lie?"
Kagome sighed. "You don't understand. I know* he loves Kikyo. I don't want to get mixed up in the brawl."
"Sis you need to listen and stop judging. NEXT time he says something, listen and don't interrupt."
"What do you know? You're only a little kid."
"Well, that goes too ways, for a little kid, I must be pretty smart. I know when to listen and not to listen. Where as you don't. So, either you're really stubborn or just that your intelligence level isn't very good." He said not looking at her.
"Who have you been talking too? You don't talk like that."
"Heh, sis people say the weirdest things when they get frustrated. Do me a favor and listen* to him. Sis.....you need to consider this. If you keep pushing him away, some day some time, some other woman who believes everything he says will fall for him. I know it won't happen in a while, Inuyasha is really loyal. But, think about it will you sis?"
Kagome didn't respond. She merely sighed and went up to her room.
'Even Sota.' She thought to herself. 'How can everyone be so blind thinking he really cares for me? Or......is it me that's blind? No, it can't be me.' She said to herself.
'Fine, I'll listen the next time he says anything.' She thought not knowing what just occurred between Inuyasha and Kikyo.
*********************************************************************
"It's already dark! It's way past dinner!" Inuyasha said, wondering what Sota; more importantly; what Kagome was thinking.
He sped towards the well and jumped in. In a flash he was back in Kagome's world. He looked at the clock which Sota had taught him how to read. 'Late. Late five* hours.' He said staring at the clock. "It's already one." He mumbled walking up the stairs. Sota pushed open his door and stared at Inuyasha.
"Where were you Inuyasha?" Sota asked.
"Sorry kid, I had some things to do."
*Flashback*
Kikyo looked at him defiantly. "I know, you feel attached to that girl too. But remember you two live in different worlds...Different times...How would people react in her world if they saw a half-demon? And I'm not talking about your sake, I know you don't care about yourself, you only care if the people you care about are okay. Think about her. It would ruin her life if she was with a hanyou. Humans are killed for even talking to demons, what more in her world?"
*End Flashback*
"Where's Kagome?" He asked looking around.
Sota laughed. "Inuyasha, it's one in the morning, she's a asleep; of course."
"I've got a feeling that she isn't." He whispered.
*Flashback*
"Did you know that when the Shikon No Tama is completed, you could wish me back to life?"
*End Flashback*
"And why do you say that?"
"I dunno. It's this weird feeling that I have. I know when she's around, I know when she's up, when she's asleep, when she's talking...."
*Flashback*
"Think about it." Kikyo said looking him straight in the eye.
*End Flashback*
Sota laughed. "You've gone crazy."
"What?"
"You have. Knowing all that, you must really* watch her.....A LOT.
Inuyasha blushed. "Uhm....I don't really have a choice. Uh, you know Shikon Shard search and all...." He said trying to make up an excuse.
"Oh sure Inuyasha." Sota said knowingly. "Hey, I'm a boy too, I know* what you're doing. Your trying to hide all your feelings."
Inuyasha took a step back. "How....I mean what makes you think that? Feh!" He said turning around not facing the little boy.
"Your so cool Inuyasha." He said happily tugging on the dog-demon's sleeve.
"What?" Inuyasha asked.
"It's one in the morning. I'm getting back to sleep. You should too, so you can wake up early enough to see my sister! You know you want too!" He said laughing, running into his room.
Inuyasha smiled a bit, then covered it up again. "I'll get back at you, tomorrow." He whispered, not wanting to wake Kagome or any of the others.
************************************************************
"Is that Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered to herself in her room. He was right, she wasn't asleep.
"Maybe I should apologize to him; it was pretty rude of me to go off like that." She mumbled.
"No....I'll do it tomorrow."
The sun rose. It was 6:30 in the morning. Kagome rose from bed and yawning. She rubbed the sleep from he eyes and sighed.
"First day of vacation and I wake up at 6:30." Kagome yawned and all the things that happened yesterday came flooding into her head.
She walked out of her room still in her pajamas. She walked down the stairs groggily, still tired. She stopped when she saw a certain half-demon playing Playstation with her brother.
"No fair!" Sota yelled.
Inuyasha shrugged. "Uhm....what just happened?" To tell the truth, he was only pressing those "button" things and had no idea what the point of this game was.
"You beat me, again." Sota said sadly.
'That scent.' Inuyasha thought to himself. 'Kagome!' He thought frantically.
He turned around slowly and sure enough there was Kagome. 'She looks beautiful when she wakes up to.' He thought.
"Snap out of it Inuyasha. You might get her hurt." He said to himself, remembering Kikyo's words.
"What did you say something?" Sota asked, looking at Inuyasha then turning to find his sister.
"Good morning." She said to both of them.
"Morning Sis." Sota said looking back at the game.
Inuyasha just stared. "Uhm...Morning Kagome."
'What wrong with him? He's acting weird.' She thought.
"Have you two eaten breakfast yet?"
"Yup!" Sota responded turning off the game.
Inuyasha sighed and stared at his Tetsuaiga.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
Sota smiled and ran up to his room.
Inuyasha and Kagome both looked at Sota oddly, and the little boy yelled from his room, "I'm just...cleaning my room! You two keep talking! Don't mind me!" He said, wanting to give them a little privacy.
"Uhm, what were you saying Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.
"Uh....I just wanted to....uhm apologize for yelling at you the other day...uh.yea.."
"Um, yea. That's okay. I'm sorry for going off like that." He said awkwardly.
"What were you going to tell the other day?"
*Flashback*
"I know you care for her, but she might get hurt.
*End Flashback*
"Well you see............"

To: Litwolf89
Q: Was Miroku's dad and grandfather killed by their air voids or did it disappear when they had their sons and they just died of other causes?
A: Miroku's dad and grandfather were both killed by their kazaanas (or air voids.). When they had their sons, the air voids were still in their hands still growing and sucking up their body. In fact, in one of the episodes, they showed a flashback from Miroku's life when he watched his father get sucked into the air void. He was only around five or six.

To: Inuyasha 94
Q: I know Sesshomaru has a half-brother which is Inuyasha and Inuyasha's mother died so what happened to Sesshomaru's mother?
A: Well, ^__^ .. When Inuyasha's father met Inuyasha's mother, he left his former demon wife to be with her. I assume that Sesshomaru's mother just left. I assume she was probably angry with Inuyasha's father, because demons basically always hate humans. Not much information has been given about his mother, but I have also heard that now at this time in the series she has already passed away. Sorry if that wasn't much of an answer!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING AND REVIEWING!!!! Do you like the story so far? THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO R/R!! Feel free to ask any more!!! I love questions!!! :DDDD

The Miroku and Sango fluff stuff:
Just in case anyone is wondering, Miroku and Sango are* now together. I was really actually planning on a lot more of fluff and a really* really* good get together, but lots of people suggested they should get together now. ^__^ So I guess I just cut that out. But if anyone wants the original, if I get enough reviews about that, I may put it up. But as of now, I'll just keep that up. :DDDD
To all the people that ask about when Kikyo ruins everything, well if you read the chapter, now you know why. ^__^ Please continue to post your reasons and comments about her!!
Oh, and if anyone doesn't mind, I'm kind of trying to prove to some people that Inu/Kag make a great couple, so could you please post some reasons about them being a great couple too? Of course I'm talking to the Inu/Kag fans and anyone else that supports them. ^__^
