A/N: Sorry for the long wait. I've been pretty dam busy. Well, from
here on, the story isn't as happy, fluffy, and humorous, it gets to be more
of a drama/romance rather than humor/ romance, so I'm going to change that.
If you don't like that stuff you might want to stop reading the story
because it's going to get a lot more serious. I'll still throw in some
humor no worries! ^_^

And just to Mr. Mean heartbreaks coming up! YaY! LoLz.

To See You Again

Disclaimer: How can I possibly own Inuyasha when he owns ME? *sighs* Silly,
silly people...
His voice trembled slightly. It wasn't as if it were the first time he had ever talked to this horrible man. It was simply that he always had feared him. The way that he liked dark places. Now, he was in the dark even more, since he had "disappeared" from camp.
The room they were in for example... The candle's soft, gloomy light was all that lit up the place. The man's features were faintly tinted, so that he could only see fractions of his face.
"M-My L-Lord?" He asked, voice shaking.
"What is it?" The man's voice was calm. At least it would seem to be calm to someone like you or me, but to the little guy sitting in front of him, it was cold, malicious, and death stricken frightening.
"Why does it have to be her? If I might ask... Aren't there many oth- " He chose his words carefully, but was cut off.
As if he knew what the man cowering in front of him was going to say, he spoke in his spine chilling voice "Because...Inuyasha loves her. And what better way to destroy, than to destroy from the heart? Besides, I have my reasons." His voice was now full of ice, as his tone had a humorous tone to it. "Now, hurry, no plan carries out itself. Bring the girl to me."
"Y-yes m' lord!" Relieved to be away from the presence of the man, he got up quickly and hurried off, away from the man in the shadows.
Away from Lord Naraku.

Chapter Ten
Kidnapped
It had been three weeks since Inuyasha and Kagome had become an "official couple". Wherever Kagome went, she would be the recipient of nasty looks of envy, cold glares of hate, and the occasional "What a slut!" comment. The truth was that Inuyasha had become a pretty popular guy, he was dating Kagome Higurashi, whom many boys had been harboring feelings for.
That meant ALL the girls wanted him. Just the fact that Kagome had him, made them want him even more, as if he were some sort of prize to show off to everyone. Every girl, well almost everyone in the female population of Camp Saotome hated Kagome with all their living beings. They envied her. Why did she get the hunk? Why did SHE get Inuyasha? Why was SHE so lucky?
The lucky thing was that Inuyasha was always with her to throw some cold glares to the girls harassing the poor girl, causing them to turn red, and turn away in embarrassment. Sure Kagome loved being with Inuyasha. To have him back once again.
It was only fair wasn't it? She knew him all those years ago.
Then again, many years have passed, why should they make much of a difference when the two were so much different now?
The fact was that they were together now, and that was that. So why couldn't the other girls just leave her alone? It's not as if Inuyasha were the only boy on the planet.
Kagome told herself that over and over as she sat beside the lake. She was alone, and alone was good. It wasn't that she didn't like Inuyasha being with her most of the time, but sometimes she just needed some time to think.
Kagome smiled as she watched to swans glide so gracefully over the lake. She watched, thinking of how the swans seemed so much like her. To everyone else, they look so graceful, peaceful and free, they are together, and with each other's company are gliding across the lake with no worries. However, in reality, they are working hard underneath the surface, their legs paddling madly, trying to keep afloat.
"Hey..." Kagome smiled. Her alone time was over, not that she minded all that much. She felt Inuyasha sit next to her.
"What's up?" He asked, pulling her closer. Kagome smiled, watching the two swans fly away into the sunset.
"Nothing." She replied dumbly, as she scooted herself closer to Inuyasha, admiring his warm embrace.
"You still going to the dance tonight?" Inuyasha asked.
Kagome nodded. "Of course. You'll be there won't you?" She smiled at him. It was obvious, if he was going, she was sure to be there...and so would about 5 dozen other girls, Kagome had to make sure she made it clear that He. Was. HERS.
Kagome had the urge to fall asleep, but thoughts flooded into her mind. Thoughts of her childhood. Thoughts of the feeling of finding him once more.
It seemed strange, to see a long lost friend, especially when that person was more than a friend. For all she knew, he could've been dead. They had lost contact completely. Perhaps it would've been too painful to write? For whatever the reason, it didn't matter, Kagome knew that, because they were together now.
She gazed out to the lake, softly reflecting the setting sun. She loved the lake. And she still had seven more weeks of it to admire. Their summer had been extended because their school was being renovated.
"C'mon Kag, let's go." Inuyasha said, gently pulling Kagome up to her feet. "We're going to be late." Tonight was yet another dance at Camp Saotome.
Hand in hand they walked to their cabins, oblivious to the two men standing behind them.
"Go," One said to the other. In a the blink of an eye, he was gone, leaving the other to chuckle in the sunset. "Soon Inuyasha...soon..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*At the dance~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
When you're a teenager, there's nothing more relaxing than to punch a hole in either your bathroom wall, your plastered bedroom wall, or a younger sibling.
Well, when you're name is Kagome Higurashi, there's nothing more relaxing than to get lost in two certain golden orbs.
And, when your name is Sango Taiyou, you watch two certain people dancing, and roll your eyes at their "mushiness", then punch a certain pervert for...well, you probably know the story.
The music filled the air of the room, decorated by balloons and streamers. Kagome sighed, maybe, just maybe this could last forever, the song playing a soft, melodic beat, no one yelling, screaming, or people in pink telling you to hike here and run there, and climb up this, and be careful not to fall off that. Everything was peaceful, everything just seemed so...right.
She looked up and caught him watching her. She smiled. There was nothing like it, the way Inuyasha gazed at her, straight into her own eyes, as if she were the only one on the earth, or at least the only one who mattered to him, and that's what mattered to her. It was one of the many things she loved about him.
Wait a minute...she...loved him? Surely not so soon. Sure she told herself that when she was younger, but that was a long time ago, a lot can change and that included her.
"Are you okay?" He asked, as if reawakening her, she jumped, then blushed and nodded. Why worry about love? She liked him, wasn't that enough for now?
~*~*~*~~*~*~~*~*~*~*~Meanwhile~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Miroku watched with narrowed eyes.
They were so close.
Too close.
Look at the way he's looking at her...and she's accepting it.
She would NEVER let Miroku get THAT close! It wasn't fair. What did he ever do?
He watched as Sango smiled her brilliant smile, only not at him, at that bastard...Kuranosuke. (A/N: Okie dokiez, just so you know, Kuranosuke appeared in episode 78, Aiming for Sango, Only You. Apparently, she and the rest of the demon slayers went to his village six years ago to slay a demon, and he fell in LoVe! LoLz. Anyway, it turns out that at the end, another Sango and Miroku moment is thwarted by SOMEONE's pervertness, but at least there was a lot of Sango and Miroku in the episode! (! Okay, back to the story)
"Watcha doin'!?" Miroku jumped and spun around, too see an all smiles Kagome. Miroku sighed, and looked down.
Kagome cocked her head and lowered her face. "What's wrong?" She asked, seeing his face. Receiving no answer, she looked around, and found what was sure to be the source of his sudden non-hentainess. Her face lit up.
"What?" Miroku asked, referring to her happiness.
"You're...jealous aren't you?" She asked slyly, a mischievous grin appearing on her face at the thought of her two best friends.
Miroku frowned at her, "Are you crazy?" He asked, not doing very well at convincing her, much less himself.
"Nope!" Kagome smiled. If only he knew, she thought, a little disappointed that she was sworn to secrecy by Sango.
"Shouldn't YOU be with Inuyasha?" Miroku asked, changing the subject in an annoyed tone. Kagome's smile wiped off her face instantly, and she rolled her eyes.
She put on a fake, high pitched voice, "Like Oh My Gosh! You are like soooo cool Inuayasha! We just like, had to come and see you!" She said, glaring at where Inuyasha was surrounded by a bunch of cheerleaders. Well, the truth was that Kagome was a cheerleader, along with Sango, what she meant was the cheerleaders who bragged about it, who wore their uniform all over just to show off, when everyone knew she and Sango were much better at stunts, as well as modesty.
Miroku smiled, "You're jealous then?!?" He said slyly, and muttered something that sounded an awful lot like "hypocrite", before being the recipient of Kagome's famous "Start Running" glare. Miroku's hand went to the back of his head, and started backing away.
Kagome huffed, and turned to Inuyasha and his fan club. One of them, Kagura, was getting awfully close.
Kagome growled and turned to the punch table, she sat down and told the boy who was manning it to hand her a glass. He smiled and took one from beneath the table. Too angry to notice that this glass wasn't from the place where the rest of the glasses were sitting, she hastily grabbed it and downed it with one gulp. Ignoring the bitter taste, she ordered for another one.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Meanwhile~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"So anyway, Father just took over another company, and he's going to give it to me, and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah" Everything he said turned into a big blur. Sango was brought up to be kind, polite, and nice to all of the idiot population. She sighed, and smiled, and nodded, while inside she was saying "call me in about 3,890,987 years, you know, when I actually start to care!".
She continued to dance with the boy, constantly telling herself, "It's Miroku, yes, I'm dancing with Miroku right now...not Kuranosuke...Miroku. " She sighed as he continued talking about this and that, and whatever the hell else. Things were never this boring with Miroku...
Too bad she didn't realize that Miroku was watching her, wishing the same thing she was.
~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome downed another punch. How dare they come onto him like that!
How dare HE LET them come onto him like that!
How DARE they make this punch so bitter! She hadn't cared before but the taste wasn't one to ignore.
What the hell..."Give me another one." Had the world not been blurry to her eyes, Kagome would've seen the boy's smirk, she would've noticed that he was grabbing each glass from underneath the table and giving it to her, rather than on top of the table where he had reached to give punch to some other girls. She would've noticed this boy's eyes shone each time she ordered another one.
However, the reality was that the world WAS blurry to her, and she DIDN'T see his smirk, or where the drinks were coming from, much less noticed that there HAD been other girls who came.
The boy behind the bar smiled, "Are you okay?" He asked kindly, watching as she held her head, eyes squinting.
Did she LOOK okay? Was this guy crazy or something? And why was the world spinning so much? She felt dizzy. Oh so very dizzy.
Her world was taken over by blackness.
~*~*~*~*~*~*
Being awakened by alarm clocks is a very annoying predicament, however, Kagome Higurashi would rather have that than being awakened like this.
Her eyes slowly opened, "Get up bitch!" She felt another cold hand come in sharp contact with her cheek as her eyes squinted in pain.
Kagome was angry, she didn't know where she was, she didn't know how she got here, she didn't know where she was earlier.... come to think of it, she didn't know who she was at the moment.
Kagome narrowed her eyes in anger, as she lunged to punch. But she couldn't move.
It was then that she felt her arms in back of her, a tight bond at her wrists.
"My my, feisty are we?" She heard another voice, but wasn't able to see anything, her vision still quite blurry. Whoever had just spoke was a different person than the one who had rudely awakened her.
"Where am I?" Kagome managed to yell.
"That's not of importance, it should be the least bit of your worries my love." The same voice said, sending a chill up her spine.
No.
Kagome would be brave.
She had to be, no matter how clueless and hopeless she felt at the time.
"I am NOT your "love" and I don't even know who the hell you are, but you certainly are NOT Inuyasha!" She yelled to where she thought the voice was.
The voice broke into a low, cold laugh. "So, you say you "love" Inuyasha then?" Kagome stopped. Her cheeks turned red, half of embarrassment and half from pure anger.
"Tell me who the hell you are!" She screamed, getting impatient.
"That is not of importance." He said, making her blood boil, he smirked, knowing she was getting pissed off.
Kagome stopped, realizing she was growling.
That voice....
"NARAKU!" She screamed. He didn't even try to hide his voice.
There was a long silence.
"My, my, I was waiting for you to piece things together." The voice said, and someone stepped into view. Kagome's eyes widened when she saw the candelight's soft gleam illuminate the man's features.
"You...you..." Kagome sputtered. The man in front of her looked older, somehow, his features didn't look as if he were truly seventeen years old, but around the age of twenty-five.
His soft laugh struck fear into her heart. "Ah, it seems I'm not who you think I am." He chuckled.
Kagome forced herself to stay strong, "What the hell is going on? I thought you were at home!" Naraku had disappeared mysteriously from camp earlier, the counselors had told them that it wasn't a big deal, that he had to go home for family affairs.
"Well, for starters, you should know that you're not the only one on the planet with spiritual powers."
Kagome's attempt to keep strong was washed away. "H- How...how do you know?"
"I have my ways." He said simply. "Now, getting to the point."
There was another long silence.
"What do you want?" Kagome finally asked, wishing to Kami that the pain in her wrists would go away.
"Don't worry love..."
"I-am-not-your-love..." Kagome yelled.
Naraku looked at her, still smiling, which is what scared her the most, yet she stood her ground, actually sat her ground, but she kept her glare.
"Make him hate you." He said suddenly.
"Wh-What are you talking about?" she asked, noting the glint in the man's eyes.
"Make Inuyasha hate you." He said, as if people went around the same thing to everyone wherever they went.
"What are you talking about?" Kagome repeated. She didn't want to think of what the reply would be, still, she couldn't control the words from spilling out of her mouth.
"If you want your "love" to live... Make. Him. Hate. You." He said, voice rising into a loud, terrible laugh.
"B-but why?" Kagome sputtered, too shocked, scared, confused, and angry to do anything more. Now, one may think this was a completely dumb thing to do. But if you were in her situation, I would like to see what YOU would do. Now, as for me, I would've most likely broke down in tears and yell, scream, and kick everything out of frustration of how utterly and completely unfair it was, and how confusing the predicament was.
"That is not of importance." He said simply.
Kagome was about to say something, she wanted to scream, yell, shout, kick, kill... However, she couldn't, she just couldn't.
"Let her go." Naraku turned, and started walking away, out of her sight.
"Yes M'lord." The voice from before said. As Kagome felt whatever was binding her wrists loosen, she heard his voice once more.
"I will be watching my love."
Kagome felt something slip over her eyes, shielding her view. "Hey...what the-!"
"Shut up." There was a rough voice, as she felt two cold hands on her back, guiding her.
Kagome remained silent, walking in sheer darkness. Thoughts surged from her mind like a raging waterfall.
"Stop." The voice commanded roughly. Now, if Kagome had only thought about this voice, she would've recognized it by the tone, and she would've realized who it was just like she had with Naraku. However, she hadn't thought of it, she was much too troubled.
Her eyes were once again exposed to a color other than black. She blinked twice, she was right in front of her cabin.
Kagome spun around to catch a view of the person, but he was gone. Not a person in sight.
Kagome silently walked up the stairs to the cabin's door. Maybe, just maybe she would find out that it was all a dream.
"I will be watching my love."" Kagome shivered, remembering Naraku's parting words.
"Hey sweetie!" A soft voice came from behind her, she spun around.
Inuyasha.
"I'm always watching."
A/N: I'm evil! I'm so sorry for not updating in a long time. I would list all the reasons, but it's pretty long. Please review anyway. * puppy dog eyes * PWEEEAASSEEEE?!?
And just to Mr. Mean heartbreaks coming up! YaY! LoLz.

His soft laugh struck fear into her heart. "Ah, it seems I'm not who you think I am." He chuckled.
Kagome forced herself to stay strong, "What the hell is going on? I thought you were at home!" Naraku had disappeared mysteriously from camp earlier, the counselors had told them that it wasn't a big deal, that he had to go home for family affairs.
"Well, for starters, you should know that you're not the only one on the planet with spiritual powers."
Kagome's attempt to keep strong was washed away. "H- How...how do you know?"
"I have my ways." He said simply. "Now, getting to the point."
There was another long silence.
"What do you want?" Kagome finally asked, wishing to Kami that the pain in her wrists would go away.
"Don't worry love..."
"I-am-not-your-love..." Kagome yelled.
Naraku looked at her, still smiling, which is what scared her the most, yet she stood her ground, actually sat her ground, but she kept her glare.
"Make him hate you." He said suddenly.
"Wh-What are you talking about?" she asked, noting the glint in the man's eyes.
"Make Inuyasha hate you." He said, as if people went around the same thing to everyone wherever they went.
"What are you talking about?" Kagome repeated. She didn't want to think of what the reply would be, still, she couldn't control the words from spilling out of her mouth.
"If you want your "love" to live... Make. Him. Hate. You." He said, voice rising into a loud, terrible laugh.
"B-but why?" Kagome sputtered, too shocked, scared, confused, and angry to do anything more. Now, one may think this was a completely dumb thing to do. But if you were in her situation, I would like to see what YOU would do. Now, as for me, I would've most likely broke down in tears and yell, scream, and kick everything out of frustration of how utterly and completely unfair it was, and how confusing the predicament was.
"That is not of importance." He said simply.
Kagome was about to say something, she wanted to scream, yell, shout, kick, kill... However, she couldn't, she just couldn't.
"Let her go." Naraku turned, and started walking away, out of her sight.
"Yes M'lord." The voice from before said. As Kagome felt whatever was binding her wrists loosen, she heard his voice once more.
"I will be watching my love."
Kagome felt something slip over her eyes, shielding her view. "Hey...what the-!"
"Shut up." There was a rough voice, as she felt two cold hands on her back, guiding her.
Kagome remained silent, walking in sheer darkness. Thoughts surged from her mind like a raging waterfall.
"Stop." The voice commanded roughly. Now, if Kagome had only thought about this voice, she would've recognized it by the tone, and she would've realized who it was just like she had with Naraku. However, she hadn't thought of it, she was much too troubled.
Her eyes were once again exposed to a color other than black. She blinked twice, she was right in front of her cabin.
Kagome spun around to catch a view of the person, but he was gone. Not a person in sight.
Kagome silently walked up the stairs to the cabin's door. Maybe, just maybe she would find out that it was all a dream.
"I will be watching my love."" Kagome shivered, remembering Naraku's parting words.
"Hey sweetie!" A soft voice came from behind her, she spun around.
Inuyasha.
"I'm always watching."
