Chapter 8
Inuyasha rushed as fast as he could back to Kaede's hut. He could smell the grief rolling off of Kagome and wanted to get her somewhere safe before trying to figure out why she was grieving. It took them most of the day to get there, but when they did Inuyasha rushed straight to the hut.
"Kagome, are you ok?" Inuyasha asked the second they were inside.
Kagome only whimpered, and then tightened her grip on Inuyasha. Her eyes had taken a blank look in them, like she had gone deep into herself and wasn't coming out. Inuyasha sat down and placed her in his lap and let her cry on his shoulder. They sat like that for an hour before Sango and Miroku came.
"Inuyasha what's wrong?" Sango asked, coming towards Kagome.
"GET BACK!" Inuyasha growled, holding Kagome closer.
"Inuyasha what's going on?" Miroku asked, slowly pulling Sango back.
"You're scaring her. Don't come any closer." Inuyasha snapped out.
Sango looked over at Kagome and saw her eyes wide and blank. "Inuyasha, what happened?" She asked.
"I don't know she just got like this once we stopped." Inuyasha whispered, running his claws threw her hair while trying to comfort her.
"Why don't you bring her to her time and ask her mother, maybe she will know." Miroku suggested.
"I'll go in the morning. I don't think we should move her tonight." Inuyasha answered, "I also think you both should leave your scaring her. She won't get any sleep with both of you around."
Both Sango and Miroku nodded and left. Inuyasha grabbed a blanket from Kagome's bag and settled in for a long night.
**In Kagome's Head (Kag POV)**
They're all coming back. The memories are going to kill me. Every beating, every mean word, I remember it. I also remember my real step father dying, and the future me. I DON'T WANT TO REMEMBER! I WANT IT ALL TO GO AWAY!
**Back to Inuyasha (author POV)**
"I DON'T WANT TO REMEMBER!" Kagome screamed, then a soft pink glow surrounded her.
"Kagome? What's going on?" Inuyasha asked, looking scared.
"I want it all to go away." Kagome whispered before falling asleep.
"What the hell was that?" Inuyasha mumbled, but soon also fell asleep.
**The next morning**
"Kagome, wake up!" Inuyasha said, shaking Kagome awake.
Kagome looked around her and saw Miroku and Sango standing there. She dove behind Inuyasha and peeked over his shoulder at them. "Inuyasha?" She asked, as if waiting for his approval.
"Kagome, this is Miroku and Sango, they're friends. You can trust them." Inuyasha said in a soothing voice. (a/n is that even possible?)
Kagome nodded and came out from behind him. She did stay very close to him though and every time Sango or Miroku tried to come close she would jump behind Inuyasha again. Every time this happened Inuyasha would laugh and smirk at them.
Inuyasha decided to leave at noon, giving Kagome plenty of time to get used to other people. He had no idea how she would respond to her own mother.
Noon came sooner then he wanted and they headed toward the well. Once they got to the other end Kagome started to get more and more afraid. She even refused to go into her own house. 'Something's wrong, I thought she might remember something here at least.' Inuyasha thought, glancing down at the very afraid Kagome.
The only thought going threw Kagome's mind was to get away. She needed to get away from here and fast. That was the only thought she had. Everything else was blank. She was running on pure instinct. She didn't know who she was, or how she got here but she knew she had to get away. She clutched Inuyasha's hand and tried with all her might not to just run away.
Inuyasha's head shot up and he looked around. 'Why did I just catch my own sent?' Inuyasha thought, glancing around.
He grabbed Kagome and threw her onto his back. Running as fast as he could he followed the sent back to a forest, almost as large as his own forest. Following the sent even further it lead to a house, and inside he could smell his sent along with Kagome's, Sango's, and Miroku's.
Inuyasha knocked loudly on the door and waited for someone to answer. After about five minutes he knocked again and yelled, "I can hear you in there you know. I want to know who the hell you are!"
The door snapped open and standing in front of him was himself? 'What the hell......?' Inuyasha thought, looking straight into his own face.
"Oh, it's just you. Come on in." the future Inuyasha said.
Inuyasha walked in and looked around. Kagome just smiled and grabbed both their hands. "Um, Kagome, did you know about this?" Inuyasha asked.
Kagome nodded then walked into the living room where her future self waited. That sent a jolt threw her body and Kagome started to get pissed. "WHY THE HELL DO I REMEMBER?" She yelled, glaring at her future self.
"You used the power of the Shikon no Tama which would jolt your memory of using it the last time. I only set a block on your memory, I didn't actually erase them." The future Kagome answered.
Kagome growled and stomped her foot. "Could you have warned me or something? I went into a state of shock and forgot everything except Inuyasha. That was not good! I was afraid of MIROKU AND SANGO for god's sake!"
"You wouldn't have remembered if I warned you remember?" future Kagome snapped out.
"Oh yea....." Kagome whispered out embarrassed.
"Um, would anyone care to explain this to me?" Inuyasha growled out, looking at their future self suspiciously.
'Oops....." Kagome thought.
**End of Chapter 8**
So how did you like it? Only a chapter or so to go, so everything unexplained will be. I really hope I get some good reviews, thanks for your patience!
