A Promise Made is a Promise Kept

Facts: This story will somewhat follow the storyline of Inuyasha, just with some twists...such as Kikyo never existed before Kagome, so she's not a reincarnation, just Kagome who is just born into the Feudal Era as well, so no "future/modern day girl" hopping between eras...oh yes, and when Kagome refers to "home" she means back to her village...and I think that covers the rough details...the rest of the story will unravel more details, if you have questions then just ask and I'll try to answer.
Summary: The battle for the Shikon jewel is finally over, but not without casualties. Someone dies, leaving the group distraught, but one of them is determined to find their fallen comrade with the wish from the jewel...will fate be kind and reunite our friends?
The Shikon jewel was finally complete. The battle had been fought for a great amount of time, but no in vain. Naraku was finally defeated and banished to the depths of hell. Though victory had been achieved, our groups couldn't help the heaviness that lingered over their hearts. Yes, of course they were the successful party and had beaten Naraku, but not without a few casualties...one in particular. The Exterminator and Monk rested against a tree, cradling their physical injuries, but mostly wishing to be able to heal the emotional wounds, which were far worse than any physical ones ever could be. The young Exterminator began to weep over her friend, as did the Monk, as well as trying to comfort the woman whom he loved. A little ways into the distance could be seen a young kitsune, though instead of weeping he was bawling for his fallen friend. He was very young and had already lost so many people in his life, so he didn't know how much more loss he could take in his life.
While these three thought of their own loss they realized that their pain could not equal that of their comrade, who was silently weeping over their lost friend, but trying to remain strong for the others. Before this battle these two had formed a very special bond, but now that bond was lost to them. They remembered back to a week before the battle had ensued...
--Flashback—
"Wench! When is the food going to be ready?" grumbled an impatient hanyou.
"Soon enough." ground out a tired raven-haired girl. Across from them sat an Exterminator and Monk, watching this exchange of words with amusement, knowing very well what was to come.
And of course, as predicted, "Wench, is it done now?!"
The tired girl turned to face the hanyou and glared at him and replied, "Inuyasha I have a name, it's KAGOME! So USE IT! You've been traveling with me for how long and still don't know my name?! Kami, I don't know why I put up with this! HERE! Take your stupid food!" and with that the young girl handed everyone their dinner and stormed off.
After watching the young girl take her leave, the kitsune spoke up, "Well now you've done it Inuyasha! Kagome's mad at you! AGAIN! I guess I should just be thankful that she didn't say she was going home..."Inuyasha just glared at the kitsune, warning him to stop speaking.
"You know he's right Inuyasha. How many times must you anger Kagome and make her leave? What happens if one day she really does give up and goes home and refuses to come back, or worse, gets attacked by a demon when she storms off and we never find her?"
The Exterminator decided to speak as well, "I agree with both Miroku and Shippo. Inuyasha, don't you find it unwise to upset Kagome? Especially after all she's done and sacrificed to help us in our search and when we're so close to completing the jewel?"
"Well it's her fault the stupid thing is broken in the first place!"
"Yes Inuyasha, but she's still made sacrifices, including leaving her position as village miko to accompany us."
"Stupid Monk, she's the only one who can see the shards!"
"But Inuyasha, aren't you the one who attempted to steal the jewel for your own selfish reasons, thus bringing it out of the protection of its guardian, where it was then stolen by another demon from you, but in the process of getting it back and out of the hands of evil, was shattered? So aren't you mostly to blame for disturbing the jewel in the first place?"
There was silence and then WHACK then THUMP sound as the Miroku was hit upside the head and fell to the ground...he had clearly won the argument...but not without paying for pointing out the flaws in Inuyasha's reasoning.
Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore and finally snapped, "Agh! Leave me alone! Don't you all think I know all this already?! I ain't stupid ya know! Feh! I don't have to take this." and with that last remark, the hanyou jumped into the trees, leaving a silent group behind.
Meanwhile, Kagome had found a cliff overlooking a vast field of various flowers and decided to sit and watch the sun begin to set. This is what Inuyasha found when he came to look for her and he unconsciously let out a sigh. He knew he was often mean to the young girl, but he couldn't help it.
First chapter done :o) I have others done too, but I don't know how successful this story will be because it's my first one...so sorry if it sucks! I'll try to keep up with updates, which should be easier now that school is ending :o) Well, I hoped you liked the first beginning of "A Promise Made is a Promise Kept" – criticism of any kind is welcome, as well as questions
