A/N-Yes that's right, I'm actually updating. I'm going to try to update it least one story every weekend now, and it will alternate between stories. This weekend it's this story ^-^
IMPORTANT- In this chapter there is dream sequence, and flashbacks. So both will be in Italics and I'll let you know if it's a dream or a flash back before hand.
Disclaimer-I don't own Inuyasha and co., merely the plot of this story.

Chpt:1 – Girl of my dreams
-Dream-
Seven year old Inuyasha stared in horror from his hiding place in a cabinet with the door slightly open as his father was shot in the chest. He watched as Professor Higurashi hugged a small girl tightly and then told her to run. It was odd, for some reason Inuyasha felt as if he knew the girl, but for the life of him, he couldn't remember her name.
Then, as the girl was running several loud gunshots rang, hurting his sensitive ears, as he saw Professor Higurashi suffer the same fate that his father had been bestowed. Suddenly the small girl was there again, crying as she shook Professor Higurashi, but he didn't wake up.
A cruel voice ordered some one to drug the small girl, as a man in black came from behind the girl and knocked her out. From where he was hiding Inuyasha couldn't make out the figure of the person who had the cruel voice, but their voice alone chilled him to the bone.
Suddenly Inuyasha wasn't in the cabinet, but was instead sitting in a chair in a room filled with police. He looked to the side and saw a newspaper on the table next to him, and on the front cover was a girl. That same small girl he'd seen when his father was killed, but no matter how hard he looked for it he couldn't find her name anywhere on the paper.

Inuyasha woke with a start as the Limo hit a bump in the road jolting him out of his sleep. "Man, it was that weird dream again" Inuyasha fumed as he propped his elbow on the arm rest and looked out the window. "But, that girl… She keeps showing up in the dream, and I still can't remember her name, I can barely even remember what she looks like…" he sighed watching the scenery flash by. Inuyasha bounced in his seat hitting his head as the limo hit another bump "Damn it!" Inuyasha cursed as he rubbed his head. "I can't believe I let Sesshomaru talk me into this! ." He seethed angrily.

-FlashBack-
"Explain to me why I'm doing this again!" Inuyasha huffed unhappily. Seshhomaru sighed inwardly as he handed his plane ticket to the woman "Because Inuyasha, I have important business to attend to overseas and I need YOU to go to the Takani residence to Finalize my funding deal with them!" he replied in a stressed tone.
"Important business my ass! You're going to Hawaii for Kami's sake, I hardly call that business!" Inuyasha yelled. "Don't be such a coward, and it IS important business and I HAVE to go now. Besides, I'm also having you do this because that Kikyou person gives me the chills. Don't screw this up or you'll be disowned" Sesshomaru called as he boarded the plane.

"Besides that Kikyou person gives me the chills" Inuyasha mimicked. "Where does he get off calling ME a coward when it's him who's afraid of his own business partner." Inuyasha rapped his fingers on the armrest aggravated. "Besides his little business doesn't really need funding, and what a lame ass modo it has, I mean come on 'Tensaiga your metal miracle' give me a break!".
"Takani residence Sir" Said the limo driver as he pulled up the driveway to a rather large manor. Inuyasha groaned mentally as the limo stopped and the driver opened the door for him. Inuyasha stepped out of the limo and grabbed his bag "What's even more stupid about this, is that I have to spend 3 freaking days here! How does it take 3 whole days just to finalize a business deal!?" Inuyasha fumed as he made his way up to the door.
"Well here goes nothing" Inuyasha said as he pushed the buzzer on the intercom. "State your name" Came the voice of a security guard on the other side. Inuyasha rolled his eyes "Taisho Inuyasha" was his blunt reply. "Ah yes, for the business deal, come in" the guard replied.
Soon a butler appeared at the door and let Inuyasha in. "Mrs.Takani Kikyou will meet with in you in the lounge room, I'll show you there, and then take your belongings to your sleeping quarters" Said the butler as he led Inuyasha down a hall.
As Inuyasha and the butler were walking a girl with raven black hair and blue gray eyes that seemed glazed over walked past them, to Inuyasha it looked like she hadn't even noticed they were there. "Weird" he thought as he continued to follow the butler. "Please, take a seat and Mrs.Takani will be with you momentarily" Said the butler as he led Inuyasha into a large room, and then departed.
Inuyasha looked around and settled for a comfortable looking chair with dark blue coverings. "Feh! Sesshomaru owes me big time for this!" . "Inuyasha I presume?" Kikyou said as she entered the room and took a seat across from Inuyasha. "Yah, that's me" Inuyasha grumbled.
Kikyou raised an eyebrow at how bad Inuyasha's manners were, but brushed the thought aside, there were more important matters to attend to. "About the Tensaiga funding deal, we've come across a few complications and need to re-write the contract. We can't really finalize the deal until the new contract is written and signed, so until then make yourself at home." Kikyou said blandly.
Right about then the girl who Inuyasha has seen earlier was walking by and caught Inuyasha's attention. Kikoyu followed Inuyasha's gaze and saw that it was fixed on Kagome. "Who is she?" Inuyasha asked curiously. "Just a girl that is held in our care, don't bother waisting your time with her though, she doesn't speak or anything." Kikyou said coldly. "Here, I'll show you, Kagome come here" Kikyou ordered.
Kagome stopped momentarily and gave Kikyou a blank stare before continuing on as if she didn't understand. "You see, she isn't that responsive" kikyou continued "Anyways you'll be shown to a guest room, I hope you find it to your liking" Kikyou finished, and with that she stood up and left.
"If you'd follow me Sir" Came the voice of the butler who had led Inuyasha to this room in the first place. "Uh, ya, sure" Inuyasha replied as he got up and followed the butler. As they were walking Inuyasha saw the Girl again. Man, it seems like the only thing she does is wander around aimlessly all day Inuyasha thought as they came near her.
"Hi" Inuyasha said to Kagome as they were passing by. The girl Inuyasha had heard Kikyou call 'Kagome` stopped for a moment, and it looked like she was going to open her mouth to respond when the butler stepped between them. "Ah, my apologies Sir, I'm not sure if Mrs.Takani told you this, but Miss Kagome doesn't speak, and she isn't very responsive to anything I'm afraid, you really shouldn't waist your time on her. On another note here is your room Sir, may it be to your liking." The butler finished and then left Inuyasha to his own thoughts.
Right after that a maid came in. "hello Sir, my name is Naoki and I'll be tending to you during your stay, is there anything you'd like?" She asked sweetly while smiling. "Ya, I was just curious, who is that 'Kagome' girl?" Inuyasha replied earnestly.
The maid's smile faltered… "Well uh, you see, Kagome is in the care of Mrs.Takani and she doesn't talk, and she's not really that responsive, you really shouldn't waist your time with her" came the maids response. "Ya ok, thanks, you can go now, I don't need anything" Inuyasha said. The maid then nodded and left.
"What are they all programmed to tell me the same thing!?" Inuyasha fumed as he plopped down on his bed. "Three times now, and they've all told me the same thing! If I didn't know any better I'd say they were paid to say that. And what's with the 'she doesn't talk' stuff, it looked to me that when I said 'hi' that Kagome girl was going to say something to me." Inuyasha nit his eye brows together in annoyance.
Inuyasha didn't know why, but there was just something about her, Kagome, that pulled at the back of his mind. He felt like he knew her from somewhere. And he felt like he wanted to know more about her… Inuyasha yawned tiredly and layed back in his bed "sleep now, think later, ya, that sounds good" he thought as he drifted off into sleep.

-Dream-
It was happening again, the same dream…Inuyasha looked around and there he was in that same cabinet, but this time after they knocked the small girl unconscious instead of him ending up in a police station the next second it continued on… Inuyasha watched as a short man with glasses took a needle from a small black bag and then injected it into the small girl.
"What in the heck" Inuyasha thought as he continued watching. The short man who had the needle stood up and looked at some one Inuyasha still couldn't quite see from his hiding place "The drug will subdue her for up to twelve hours, during those twelve hours she won't be able to act very much on her own accord, and probably won't be able to speak much either, in a way it traps her in her own mind, it's the most effective subduing drug there is. I should presume it meets your standards?".
Kikyou smirked "Yes that'll be perfect so long as she is drugged every twelve hours we should be fine" came the response from the same cold voice that Inuyasha had heard before, but Inuyasha still couldn't see who it belonged to.
Inuyasha watched as the small girl was picked up and carried outside. And then suddenly Inuyasha was back in the same police station from his previous dreams, and he saw the same newspaper with the same little girl's face on the front cover. But then, the face on the cover changed, and the picture began blinking back and forth rather fastly between the picture of the little girl and, Kagome?

"What the!" Inuyasha jolted up in his bed in a cold sweat. "Man, these dreams just keep getting weirder and weirder every time, but I can't help but think that they mean something." Inuyasha sighed and rubbed his forehead, and then there was Kagome, what did she have to do with any of this. I think it's about time I get some answers…Inuyasha though wearily.
Then a sudden thought came to him. Kikyou DID say he should make himself at home, and while at home he WAS allowed to be as nosy as he wanted. Problem solved, if no one else was going to tell him the whole story on this Kagome girl then he was just going to have to ask Kagome herself!

A/N- sooo…. What do you guys think? Good? Bad? If you guys are a bit… confused, that's ok, you're not supposed to completely understand this story yet ^-^ . But these are some questions that you guys might be asking, so ya, I'll explain a few things…
When Dr.Taisho (Inu's dad) and Professor. Higurashi (Kag's dad) were killed Kagome was 5 yrs old, Inuyasha was 7 yrs old, and in this story, Kikyou was about 20 yrs old. Now it's ten years later, so now Kagome would be 15, Inuyasha 17, and Kikyou 30.
If you guys have any questions, or you have a feeling you know what's going to happen next, tell me in your review! ^-^
