'It wouldn't hurt..' She kneeled down next to him, and leaned
her face in, touching her lip's to his. She gasped when she felt his hand
upon her head, and slight movement on his part.
She opened her eye's and pulled away, looking flustered. "Miroku.. I-"
She began, but stopped short when she felt a hand on her cheek. Miroku
rubbed her cheek, and brushed his thumb up against her lips.
"Sango, I love you." Miroku said, this time meaning it. He had said
it before, but this time, meant it with all his heart. She could tell also,
that's why she replied,
"I love you too, you stupid pervert!" She jumped happily into his arms,
and kissed him.
But, they both thought the same thing, once while they were kissing.
'What about Inuyasha and Kagome?'

Order Twelve
Someday
How the hell did we wind up like this?
Why weren't we able,
To see the signs that we missed?
And try to turn the tables...
I wish you'd unclench your fists,
And unpack your suitcase.
Lately there's been too much of this,
Dont think its too late.
Nothin's wrong,
just as long as,
you know that someday I will...
Someday, somehow,
gonna make it alright but not right now.
I know you're wondering when,
Someday, somehow,
gonna make it alright but not right now.
I know you're wondering when...

Kagome couldn't do it. She couldn't take it anymore. She
had been hurt too much, and she could not, WOULD not stay
around for it anymore. She wouldn't allow herself to cry, or weep.
Not over him, not anymore. It was over before it even started, and she'd
make sure with the bottom of her heart that nothing like that happened
again. And if it did, hell would freeze over. Quote me on that.
Ms. Higurashi and her brother Souta were downstairs, totally un-aware
of what was happening. And she would be sure to keep it that way. For,
she was running away.
This was it, no more friends. No more school. No more nice home, shelter,
or good food.
No more Inuyasha.
That thought stabbed a pain into her chest, and she clenched her shirt.
She fell onto the bed breathing heavily. Her attacks were getting worse,
she had no idea what was going on. This pain, just stabbed at her heart
at random times. Maybe it was trying to tell her something? She doubted
it. But she didn't care either way. She was leaving, and that was that.
She was all packed. Done, all what she needed, plus her money she had
hidden away for later. She figured she could live a couple months without
a job and still get food, but would have to find some sort of place soon.
Then, she remembered her cousin that lived in a small town in Kyoto. She
grinned, and picked up the phone.
After explaining her situation, her cousin, Mayu, gladly accepted. She
was now going to use the money she had for a plane ticket, and fly over
there. One last thing, a note.
She picked up a pen, and a piece of paper. She began writing, and after
about a half an hour of doing so, she jumped out her window onto a tree
that was close up, and slid down it. She ran off to the airport, which
happened to be about ten minutes away, so she was in luck.
Kagome Higurashi, had ran away from home. The only thing that would
have proven she existed, was the piece of paper that rattled with the wind
on her bedspread. It read, as follows:
Dear Everyone,
Yes, I am gone. There is no use looking for me, I will be gone by
the time you figure out where I am. I'm sorry I had to depart like this,
but it was for the best. I know it may have been selfish of me to do so,
but maybe I'll come back one day and visit you all. I want you to know,
I will miss you all with all my heart, and it is not YOUR fault. It's all
me, and how I feel. So, here are my notes left to specific people.
Miroku and Sango - I love you guys, like family. You have always
been there for me, and I don't know what I would have done if I never met
you. I will miss you guys, and maybe, I'll come visit you one day. I hope
you guys have a wonderful relationship, because I could tell something
was going on.
Mom and Souta - I love you guys also. So much, my family. You have
taken care of me when I needed it, and loved me when I was wrong. I will
NEVER forget you, and rest assure, I will be back one day. Souta, yes,
you can have my playstation, so then you can stop bugging me about that,
ne?
Cousins, family, other friends - I can't exactly name you all, but
I wanted to thank you so much for letting me enter your lives with such
kindness. You have accepted me for who I am, and I will never forget it.
You will be in my memories, and heart always.
The list went on and on, but the last entry, was wet with fresh tears.
Inuyasha - What can I say, Inuyasha? I know, your so happy I'm gone,
for you have hated me ever since I met you. But, I can not bring it to
my heart, to hate you back. With all my heart I can't hate you, and I can't
say I'll come visit you. You don't want me to, you would probably call
me an idiot, and hit me. You'd tell me to get out, and I can see the sinister
smirk on your face while your reading this. But, in your heart, your sad
because no one is left for you to pick on. I guess you can go back to Kikyou
now, and she can be the top playgirl of the school once again, before I
came in and intruded on your life. I'm sorry for anything I ever did to
you, or hurt your feelings. Anything, I would do anything for you, even
though you hate me so. I'm sorry for trying to be your friend, because
I know you didn't want it. I managed to fool myself into thinking maybe,
just MAYBE you could have been my friend.. or more. But, as usual, I was
sadly mistaken. Well, I can't write to you all day, I just want you to
know, I will remember you forever. I will never forget you, and your wonderful
voice, and the kindness you have shown me even if it WAS fake. The memories
of all the times you pranked me, will be etched in my memory forever, sad,
ne? But, I only have one thing left to say to you, Inuyasha.. my final
farewell.
I still love you.

Miroku and Sango left for Kagome's house, hoping it wasn't too late.
They caught on with what she would probably do, so they had to inform someone
about this. That would be her family, and maybe they could force Kagome
to stay. They arrived to Kagome's and knocked on the door loudly. Souta
came to the door, and he was quickly ran over by them, as they ran up the
stairs and slammed Kagome's door open.
They saw maroon curtains flowing in the wind, window open. It was quiet,
and the sun rise was reflected into her room. The stars were some-what
visible, and the one thing that caught their eye, was a simple piece of
paper, floating on the bed. Sango slowly entered the room, and sat down
on her bed. Souta and Ms. Higurashi came running up the stairs to see what
was going on, and they didn't see Kagome, but only a note that Sango now
held in her hand.
They knew. They knew what their family member had done. Sango looked
at the note solemnly, and looked back to Miroku. Her eye's began welling
up with tears, and she jumped into Miroku's arms, sobbing. Souta and Ms.
Higurashi hugged each other, and cried also.
They looked out the window Kagome had traveled out of, and looked at
the star that twinkled in the sky. It disappeared. Just like their hope
and happiness had.
Miroku, over his sobbing, picked up the telephone. He dialed Inuyasha's
number, and told him to come over to Kagome's quickly. He did so, after
getting directions. He walked into the house, and up to Kagome's room like
instructed to. Souta, her little brother put a piece of paper in his hand,
as he began to read.
When he was done, he dropped the paper. It floated innocently to the
ground, as did his body. His eye's were wide, and his heart was beating
rapidly. His breath got quicker, as this situation pounded into his brain.
"She... she's gone.."
***
Kagome was now in the airport terminal, and boarding the plane. She
got on, and sat down, her big back-pack following her. She smiled at the
attendant, and the airplane took off.
She opened a book she had, had in her backpack, and began to write.
"There once was a lonely girl, who fell in love with a very lonely man.."
she began, but when someone called out her name behind her, she freaked.
"Kagome!" The name chanted, throughout the plane. She turned around,
and luckily, it was only a little girl reading her backpack. She sighed
in relief, and was about to continue, but the announcement broke her thought.
"It seems we will be arriving in Kyoto a little earlier than usual,
on a count of the good weather! Our arriving time will be in about a half
an hour, so keep yourselves busy for that short amount of time!" The cheery
voice was cut off, and Kagome sunk back into her seat. She sighed, and
thought she wasn't going to get any work done on the plane. So, she pulled
out her CD player, and put her headphones on.
"How the hell did we wind up like this?
Why weren't we able, to see the signs that we missed?
And try to turn the tables.
I wish you'd unclench your fists, and unpack your suitcase.
Lately there's been too much of this, dont think its too late."
Tears started becoming noticeable in her eye's. 'Why did everything
lead back to him? Maybe I shouldn't have left..' She looked out the
window, and sighed. 'It's too late to go back now, I must live with
the consequences of my actions.' She told herself, firmly.
She looked out the horizon, and said something quietly to herself. "I
wonder what your doing now... Inuyasha.." Her head fell back on the seat,
and she fell asleep.
***
Inuyasha had long run out, and was sniffing the air vigorously. He was
catching Kagome's scent easily, and was running fast in her direction.
His breath was cut short when he finally realized, he just ended up in
the airport. He was very worried now. She could have gone anywhere! To
the other side of the world!
He ran into the building, ignoring everyone who screamed at him. His
main goal was Kagome, and he would find her, if it meant his life. He would
make it up to her, and NOTHING would happen to her like that again!
He went up to the lady at the main counter, and said, "Look up for Kagome
Higurashi." He said, simply.
"Please wait a moment sir, but we cannot give that information. It is..-AH!"
She screamed, as she was being held up by the collar of her shirt. His
eye's began to glow a tinge of red, as he said in a deep and dangerous
voice,
"LOOK UP for Kagome Higurashi!" He said, forcefully.
"Yessir!" She said, typing as fast as she could. She finally came up
with a result, as she said scaredly, "Flight 8-B 42, To Kyoto."
That's all he needed to hear, as he ran to gate three like instructed.
He got there, and saw the next flight was leaving in ten minutes, so, he
pulled out a huge wad of money out of his pocket. There had to be a million
dollars there, at LEAST. "Get me a seat."
"Yes." The lady said, taking the money. She let him get first on the
plane, and first class. Before he knew it, everyone was boarding. He silently
said, before the plane went off, "I'm coming, Kagome."
***
Apparently, her cousin was late on getting there. She had called a couple
minutes ago that she would be an hour late, and was very sorry, but it
was an emergency. So, here she was, waiting at the gate she had come in,
and watching people go in and out. She listened to her music quietly, and
hummed the tunes.
"Nothin's wrong, just as long as you know that someday I will...
Someday, somehow, gonna' make it alright but not right now.
I know you're wondering when, someday, somehow, gonna' make it alright
but not right now.
I know you're wondering when..."
"Yes, someday, it will be okay. But not now, not anytime soon. I'm not
ready, not ready to face Inuyasha.." She said, quietly. She was about to
fall asleep, when the announcer said very loudly, "Flight 8-B 43 arrived."
Kagome sighed, and decided it would be fun to watch the many faces of
people from around the world, so she watched as people tall, fat, big,
and small come out of the terminal gate. Some were wearing coats, some
barely anything. It was amazing how people were different these days. All
the people were apparently out, and she was going to go get a drink of
water. She got up from her seat, but then she heard yelling and groans
of people being pushed. Being curious, she tried to get a look of what
was going on.
Curiosity killed the cat, Kagome.
She couldn't make it out, but there was someone struggling to get out
of the plane as quick as possible. They finally were getting up to the
top of the line, and were shoved out of the crowd onto the side. She didn't
catch a glimpse of them, but she really couldn't care less, about that
anyway.
Now, she could care when she was suddenly thrown to the ground, and
picked up. And then, dragged across the terminal to the parking lot which
was for some reason, heated. She looked up, and looked the stranger in
the eye who had taken her, and was about to get killed, badly.
Brown...clashed with amber...
Am...ber...?
