Chapter 5: She's still mine
(In Modern Day Japan)
"Mommy! Mommy!!" A little boy with short brown hair ran towards his home. A beautiful young woman with brown eyes and raven black hair turned around smiling at him.
"What is it, Tidus sweetie?" The young woman's voice was that of an angels, it was filled with worry, love, and was like music to the boy's ears.
"It's Keiko! She's stuck in a tree! Help her mommy! Help her!" Of course, what parent would be so cruel as to leave their own child stuck in a tree, especially this parent. She wasn't selfish, she would always think about what happened to others before she made her actions, never herself. The little boy took his mother by the hand and dragged her over to the big tree in front of their home. The young woman helped her daughter out of the tree and told both her son and daughter to go back inside. Then put a hand on the tree and sighed.
"The Goshinboku..."
"Kagome! Come back inside! It's getting cold!! (AN: if you didn't realize it was Kagome already...)" The woman looked back and smiled warmly at her mother. Although the smile wasn't real...nobody knew. She was never really happy these days...that's why she went and had kids. She finally realized how cold it was and ran back inside with her mother.

(Feudal Japan)
'It...It has been almost three years...since I last saw...her.' A particular young hanyou thought. He looked up and saw the most beautiful sunset he had ever seen in his whole entire life. "Kagome..." He breathed. "I...I miss you so much...If only you knew..." He jumped out of the tree and began to walk, he didn't know where he was going, nor did he care. He just kept going. The next thing he knew, he was in front of the Ho Ne Wo Ta Belu Ido (Bone Eater's well). "I...I guess it's worth a try..." He jumped in, and the well was filled with a beautiful blue light which made Inuyasha's heart jump with joy. That is...until he heard this.
"Mommy! Mommy!!" An unfamiliar voice rang in his ears, the child was no older than a 6 year old.
"What is it, Tidus sweetie?" That voice. That was the one he would never forget, even in death. Kagome. 'She...She already has children? With who...why...has she forgotten about me already? ....Kagome....'

(The Higurashi Residence)
Kagome spun around on her heel and swung the door open. 'I sense something...A it be...' She ran outside. Inuyasha heard footsteps, and quickly hid behind the well. He heard the door fly open. "Inu...yasha...he's not here..." The angelic voice filled his head once again.
"Mommy..who are you talking to?" Kagome's daughter looked up at her in confusion.
"Nobody sweetie...Mommy just thought...nevermind, you wouldn't get it..." That last part, only Inuyasha caught it. The little girl just shrugged and ran back into the house. "I know you came Inuyasha. Just let me see you again..." She whispered. She turned around and almost went completely pale when she heard someone say her name.
"Kagome..." Wait. That voice, so familiar...who...Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha?...what are you-"
"Who is it?"
"What?"
"You have kids?"
"Oh." She chuckled a bit. "I'm not their biological mother."
"Their what?"
"I'm not their real mother." She laughed lightly again.
"Oh." 'I should've known...I'm...glad...she's still mine.'
"Inuyasha."
"Hm..." He looked up and found himself staring into Kagome's beautiful brown eyes. They went glassy and for a moment, he saw sorrow. But then, he saw the one thing he had longed to see for three years. Those eyes suddenly filled with happiness, joy, and they were so full of life. Just like the Kagome years before. "Kagome..." she was inching closer to him. Closer, closer, closer, bullseye. Her lips landed right onto Inuyasha's. Her arms wrapped around his neck, his arms gradually slid around her small waist, pulling her closer and deepening the kiss.
"Inuyasha, you don't know how happy I am!"
"Kagome...I love you. You better remember it, because I won't let go next time...my Kagome."
'His Kagome...Inuyasha's Kagome...yeah...that sounds right.' Kagome smiled to herself and as buried her face into his shoulder.
"I love you too Inuyasha."
Flashback
"Inuyasha...?"
"What?"
"What will happen when Naraku's dead?"
"You know what will happen Kagome." He raised an eyebrow at her.
"No...I mean, to me..." Kagome's voice cracked.
Silence....
"I don't know...but no matter what you decide, I'll be there for you. I promise" She smiled, but he didn't notice.
End Flashback
"Kagome...one more thing."
"Wait." She slowly slid the prayer beads off his neck. "Now what?" She smiled.
"I'll be here for you...I'm choosing the path my hearts wants to follow...I promise." 'After all, those kids need a father...right?' He smiled back.
