Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry it took so long to update. I had school and stuff..you know band, band, band, and oh yeah band. Okay now you know my terrible secret I'm a.a.a band nerd......YEAH!! All you band people out there know what I'm talking about =) enough chitchat ON WITH THE STORY. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "Crap"

Kagome tripped over a rock and landed flat on her stomach.

'Great' she thought sarcastically.

Something rustled in a nearby tree. She looked around and spotted the cause of the noise. Smiling to herself she got up and started walking again. A few steps later she yelled.

"Hey Kouga can you do me a favor?"

"Uh.." He jumped down landing in front of her. "What gave me away?"

"I knew the whole time what kind of miko do you think I am?"

"Oh really? Even when you were singing, or when you were talking to yourself?"

"W-w-well ah-ah-I.....shut-up......Why are you fallowing me?"

"Well you weren't exactly discrete when you were leaving the cave and I don't plan on letting my woman wander around the woods at night without protection."

"First of all I'M NOT YOUR WOMAN and second of all I'm perfectly capable of protecting myself. Please go back to your cave and let me go home!!!"

"I don't think so."

He grabbed her arm and started back towards the cave. She quickly jerked her hand away.

"KOUGA WILL YOU GO AWAY AND LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!

Kouga looked at the girl in complete awe.

"Ah-I'm s-sorry Kagome I didn't mean t-to do anythi-ugh....sorry."

And with that he left.slowly..(=O shocking). Kagome watched his retreating form flooded with guilt. Her head dropped she stared at the floor for another 5 minutes before she decided that the ever confident Kouga would get over it and she continued towards the Well.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kagome spotted the well through the clearing.

"Ugh.finally" She started to run...just as she reached the last trees someone grabbed her securing her arms around her waist and covering her mouth. Her eyes widened she struggled succeeding in nothing. Her intruder dragged further and further away from the Well.

The intruder let her go and she quickly stepped away turning back to the face of her abductor.

"MIROKU!?!?" ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Don't you just love cliffhangers.I know I do...well I have another apology...I'm so sorry this story was poorly written but I just got back from performing at a football game and I'm extremely tired and I had been putting this off so I promise the next update will come sooner and I hope it is written better.
