"Night guys!" Kagome called out as she went off to bed. It was almost midnight, and she was getting tired, so, she

headed up to bed. Matt slept in Sota's room, while Yonai and Karri shared then extra room.

She slipped into some pajama pants and a tank top, then crawled into bed. The moon and stars were the only light in her room, but she could still tell where everything was.

For her birthday,Matt had gotten her a new car. A black Mustang with a red and blue strip down each side. Yonai and

Karri had gotten her a platnium chain, and sapphire pendent. Her mother and Sota hadent gotten her anything, which she asked

they do. She didnt really want anything for her birthday for some reason.

"Kagome?" Matt whispered as he slowly opened the door to her room. She sat up as he came in and sat at the end of her bed. "Did I wake you up?"

"No."

"Okay, good. Wee need to talk." Kagome looked at Matt. His face was serious.

"About what?" she asked. 'InuYasha stupid!' her head screamed.

"That Inu-Youkai you know."

"You mean - InuYasha?"

"Yea."

"Okay, what about him Matt?" Kagome asked. For some reason, she felt like she shouldnt have asked that. matt looked at her for a minute.

"Why the hell did he show up today?"

Kagome thought for a minute. That same question had gone through her mind when he first showed up to. Then it hit her. "To protect me."

"Then why did he throw Yonai to the ground?" he asked. Matt's face was still serious, but kagome knew he was just looking out for her.

"Because she slapped me. You were there. You saw."

'Fine.' Matt thought. "Then how do you know him?"

Kagome didnt know what to say. What could she say really? 'I travled 400 years back in time and he was pinned to a tree. I set him free and he tried to kill me. We've been friends ever since' just wouldnt cut it.

"I've knowen him for a while." she decided.

"Then how do you know he wont try to kill you and the family next time he decides to drop by?"

"Matt, InuYasha was just trying to protect me earlier. He would never hurt anyone I care for. He cant."

"What do you mean he cant? He's an Inu-Youkai kagome, you have no power over him."

"I do.. In more ways then one..." she trailed off. Matt looked at her in confusion. "Nevermind, now go to bed."

"Alright. Night Kag."

"Night Matt."

Matt slowly closed the door to Kagome's room, then wen off to Sota's. Just before he reached the door, he heared something from downstairs. First it was just a low mumble, but soon became slearer. It was his name. Someone was calling him. 'Damn my curiostiy.' he scolded himself, but went towards the voice anyways. The voice wasnt coming from the house, but from the backyward. Slowly, even though his commen sence was telling him to stop, he kept walking farther and farther into the woods.

"There you are Matt." the voice said. It came from a tree, but Matt couldnt see anything. He could only hear the voice.

"Who are you and what do you want?!" Matt asked the voice. He tried to move. To run back. But his body wouldnt move.

"Do you not trust InuYasha?" the voice asked, ignoring Matts question.

"Yea.." he said slowly. At the moment, he didnt trust any youkai. No matter what.

"Do you want to keep him away from Kagome?"

"Yes."

"Good." he said. Matt looked up to see to blood red eyes looking down on him. "As do I."

"Nice to see you again Naraku." said a calm voice from infront of Matt. "Didnt Kagome kill you?"

"Shut up Sesshomaru." hissed the voice, now known as Naraku.

"Go to hell." Sesshomaru barked, walking out from the shadows. his apperence startled Matt. Purple markings, blue moon, gold eyes, long silver hair. He resembled InuYasha, but was different. "You're getting old naraku. You went for Matt and not Kagome."

Naraku laughed at him. "Kagome is the one I'm after, yes, but I want your damn hanyou brother out of the way!" He laughed one more time, then was gone.

"Go back to bed." Sesshomaru said to Matt, then vanashied himself, leaving Matt out there alone.

'This isnt good.' Sesshomaru thought. 'He shouldnt be back.'

'What was that about?' Matt thought as he traveled back through the shadows.

"Mmmm.... No.... Dont..." Kagome mumbled as she tossed and turned in her bed. "No!" she screamed. She sat up so fast in her bed the room started to spin. But she didnt care. One word came to her mind. Naraku.

Kagome woke up that morning to see her brother Sota sitting in the middle of her room, trying to open her diary.

"Oh crap." he said quickly. "I cant explain!"

"Oh, you will." she said sweetly. "While I beat you up!"

"No!" Sota excliamed as he dashed out her room. He went down the stairs and into the backyard with Kagome right behind him. Right as she was about to grab his dark hair, two strong arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her behind a tree.
