"Really, forever?" Miroku asked in awe.
"Yes! Now help me finish the hut!" Inuyasha said.
"Kagome?" Shippou asked quietly. Kagome didn't answer or move. The only thing that said she was alive was her slow breath.
~2 days later~
"Finally done!" Miroku said in triumph. The worked had been slow since Sango couldn't help them. "Where has she been?" Miroku asked.
"Sango?" Inuyasha asked. "Yeah, her Dad said she was starting training.".
"But he won't tell us what!" Miroku yelled."
"Oh shut up!" Inuyasha said as he looked around the hut. It wasn't much. One table, 3 chairs, a shelf, and in the two opposite corners were two piles of fur, beds. Zentoaku and Tessaiga were hung on the wall with small pegs. The note was pinned up. Inuyasha could almost read it now. And the two rings were pegged up beside the note. On the shelf was some wood dishes and cups. "I'll get Kagome." Inuyasha said and turned out of the hut to the cave. Kagome hadn't moved since Inuyasha laid her down but her wounds were almost gone now.
"Shippou?" . Inuyasha asked to wake the sleeping fox.
"Inuyasha?" Shippou yawned.
"I'm moving Kagome to our hut." Inuyasha said and picked her up gently. "I wouldn't do that..." Shippou warned.
"Do what?" Inuyasha asked.
"Touch-Never mind..." Shippou started but stopped as Kagome's clawed hand flew up and tightened around Inuyasha's neck.
"Make...her...stop!" Inuyasha yelled. Kagome opened her eyes and bright green glared at molten gold.
"Kagome let him go," Shippou said and Kagome released her grip.
"Shippou!" Kagome cried and tried to leap to him, but Inuyasha kept a firm hold.
"What did I do to deserve that!?" Inuyasha asked angrily.
"She doesn't mean it, Kagome's trained to protect something and you got too close." Shippou explained.
"Keh! I don't want it." Inuyasha said and carried Kagome into his hut.
"If she is so trained then why did that wolf have her?" Inuyasha asked.
"Because of Kouga, She saw Kouga and his tribe as friends so she couldn't hurt them," Shippou said.
"Shippou you make it sound like I can't hear you!" Kagome yelled.
"Sorry," Shippou said sheepishly.
"It's okay, Listen dog, I'm sorry too." Kagome said to Inuyasha.
"It's Inuyasha" Inuyasha said sourly.
"Kagome!" A voice yelled. Kagome's ears twitched at her name. Miroku came running in.
"Who are you?" Kagome asked as her tail flicked in confusion.
"Miroku, thats Miroku," Inuyasha said.
"Oh, put me down please." Kagome said.
"Yes, Inuyasha put her down!" Miroku said excitedly.
"Why so you can touch the poor girl? Although this one might give you one big headache." Inuyasha said thoughtfully.
"Just put me down." Kagome said. Inuyasha snorted and placed her down.
"Kagome!" As soon as her feet touched the ground the fox charged at her. "I'm so happy!" Shippou flew at Kagome full force.
Kagome stumbled and fell backwards. "Eee!"
Inuyasha, who was standing behind her, caught her. "Dumb cats." Inuyasha muttered. The Shikon around Kagome's neck had fallen off and Inuyasha reached down to get it. Kagome looked up to see Inuyasha holding the Shikon no Tama and looking at it curiously.
"Kagome don't!" Shippou yelled, but it was too late. Kagome sprung forward and with one swift kick, knocked Inuyasha to the ground.
"Grrrr..." Inuyasha glared at Kagome who was leaning over him to grab back her jewel. Inuyasha, not going to lose to a GIRL, kicked Kagome in the stomach, knocking her back by Miroku.
"Inuyasha, respect a lady!" Miroku yelled, but an all out War had started. Kagome got to her feet, growling and went into a fighting stance.
"Wanna fight? Okay." Inuyasha ran at Kagome who ducked to the ground and used her tail to trip Inuyasha.
"You're going to lose" She said flatly.
"No I'm not!" Inuyasha yelled back. Inuyasha jumped up and pulled Tessaiga off the wall, turning towards Kagome.
Kagome froze a minute and watched Inuyasha remove the sheath.
"Scared?" Inuyasha taunted, "Psh, scaredy cat!"
Kagome snorted and ran at Inuyasha. Inuyasha brought Tessaiga up to block. Kagome jumped up, and putting her feet against Tessaiga, pushed off. The pressure of Kagome's kick set Inuyasha off balance and he tumbled out the door.
"Wow!" Miroku said as he watched Kagome gracefully land and retrieve the Shikon. Inuyasha came running back.
"I could have kicked your little butt!" Inuyasha yelled, placing Tessaiga back.
"Yes, you could have," Kagome said.
"I was just going easy 'cuz you're a girl and all" Inuyasha muttered.
"I'm sure, it was very respectful and kind." Kagome smiled at Inuyasha, which blew away his retort on her comment.
"Miroku? Inuyasha?" A girls voice called.
"Sango!" Miroku instantly had a grin.
"That's Sango." Inuyasha said to Kagome. Sango came out of the hut with something, well some ONE trailing behind her. Kagome got one look at the two and smiled.
"This is Kirara, she is my battle partner," Sango said, indicating the girl beside her. Kirara smiled and bowed politely, showing off her two yellow-tan tails.
"I'm a fire cat demon," Kirara said in a soft voice.
"Battle partner?" Kagome asked, and both girls turned to look at her.
"You're alive and kicking I see," Sango said, making Miroku snicker.
"Literally." Miroku snickered, Inuyasha punched him, Sango decided not to ask.
"Well, Father has me training as a Youkai Taijiya, It's our family business," She explained, "Though most refuse to acknowledge youkai, I'm training to exterminate demons!" Sango said proudly.
Shippou, Kagome, and Inuyasha shuddered.
"Not you guys of course," She said reassuringly. "Anyways, I wanted to say bye," Sango smiled sadly.
"Bye!?" Miroku echoed.
"Yes, Training is in New York, I'll be gone for awhile," She said.
"How long?" Miroku said, starting to sound panicky.
"...3 years," Sango said quietly, deliberately not meeting Miroku's broken hearted expression. "I promise I'll come back." Sango said, walking up to Inuyasha and giving him a quick hug. "Bye," She said sadly, and gave Kagome a hug, which she returned.
Inuyasha noted with annoyance, that SHE didn't get thrown across the room, for touching Kagome. Last, Sango went to Miroku.
"I'll miss you," She said, and they exchanged a quick hug. Sango walked out the door, and with one last glance, was gone.
A thought suddenly struck Inuyasha, "With Sango gone, who will make dinner?" All eyes turned to Kagome.

"Wow Mom really did a number on Dad!" Kisa says.
"Kisa! You're telling the story wrong, DAD beat MOM up! Dads a lot stronger!" Kyou yells.
"Shut up! Mom beat Dad up even Uncle Miroku said so!" Kisa screams.
"Whatever..." Kyou says and leaves.
"Now that my ANNOYING LITTLE BRO is gone I can get back to MY story!" Kisa says with a sigh.
"Right where was I?...O YEAH, Aunt Sango and Aunt Kirara left and everyone turns to Mom to cook, Such guys! Anyways, I'm gonna stop there. Mom says I need to be fitted for my new necklace, Kyou too. Oh! you don't know what the necklaces are. Well, I'll explain later! Bye!" Kisa says and runs from the room and slams the door.
