I do not own InuYasha or anyone else cuz I don't like slavery...... giggle I rated this story PG-13 because its so sad! really, I'm crying sob. Anyway I would like to deticate this story to all my friends for giving me moral support and that stuff. But this is detected to Hedgehog in particular because she waded through all my misspellings to edit this thing. Plus if I did'nt she would personally kill me Hope you like Recollection!

I laid in bed watching the ceiling for a while, in that comfortable state before you have to actually get up, but when you can still think. Now that school was out for the summer I could spend most of my time with InuYasha, and everyone else. We had beaten Naraku, but there were still his creations to deal with, and most the Shikon Jewel shards had gotten scattered when Naraku was killed. I sighed, not the "I'm tired with my life sigh," but the "I'm so happy this is the only way to express myself" sigh. Then I dragged out my backpack and rooted around inside it to see what I'd forgotten, I always forget something. Yep, no ramen, InuYasha can't get enough ramen, if I had forgotten them he would have killed me. I went downstairs and started fixing breakfast, pancakes and hot chocolate, two foods they never serve in Feudal Japan. After I finished eating I started to look for some paper to leave a note, but before I could find any, grandpa came downstairs, through a muffled yawn he mumbled, "Kagome! its summer, why are you up so early?"
"Because, I promised InuYasha I'd be there early today, we are going to try tracking down some fragments that are pretty far away. Oh, by the way, I'm going to be gone for a couple weeks this time, 'K? Knew you'd understand! Bye now!"
I rushed out the door, conveniently not hearing grandpa's belated protests. I only stopped running once I got to the wellhouse. I always feel so weird doing this, I thought to my self, climb into the well, climb back out into Feudal Japan.

On the other side of the well I came out in the now-familiar wilderness and started heading toward the village where everyone would be waiting. I paused for a minute, something seemed strange, different. Nah, probably it's just that I haven't been to the past for a while because I've been studying for my finale exams, which I passed! Praise the gods!
I kept going, until I heard InuYasha's voice over to my right, what's he doing over there? And who's he talking to? Oh well he probably came to meet me.... Wait is that Kikyo?!? I crept over to see what they were doing, InuYasha and Kikyo were walking through the woods together, alone! I thought he was so over her! Then I heard InuYasha say, "Kikyo, I love you so much. No one else has made me feel the way you do. No one else can possibly take your place, there is room in my heart for only you."
How could he! The double-crossing, two-timing son-of-a-! He said those same, almost exact, words to me just a week ago! With a straight face too!
Now as a side lesson, always look where you are going, especially when evesdropping, as this next scene will demonstrate.
I tripped over something, probably a rock, because I was watching InuYasha and Kikyo, and stumbled into them. I stared into his face, seeing the expected surprise, and......... anger? How dare he be angry! I've been betrayed! I should be the one who's angry!
Then InuYasha spoke, "Who are you? What are you doing here? Were you following us!"
Those words hurt deeply, he had forsaken me. I looked up into his face, with tears on mine. "InuYasha!" I cried, then I saw the anger, what happened to all that love I saw in his face just a week ago?
I ran off then, I couldn't deal with him anymore. I kept running, just in a random direction, with tears streaming down my face. He lied to me! He told me he had forgotten her! She's dead! I thought we had gotten rid of her! Why couldn't he just tell me he cared for her more then me? Why did he just lead me along? Not even Miroku would do that.

I need to talk to Sango.

Well did you like it? If people don't give me feed back I won't post the next chapter, cuz I'm insecure and have nightmares......
