A/N: Wow! I'm so sorry for taking forever to write this. Hides head in shame I dunno why but I could never get motivated to write this chapter. Then I started thinking "You know what? I really don't like it when there is a good story and it never gets finished. So what about the people that like my story?" It helped reading the reviews it always makes me happy knowing that people liked my story. So without further ado, I dedicate this chapter to all the people who read my story and like it. Thank you!

"Kagome? Her name was Kagome?" Sango asked excitedly.
"Ya. That's what I said. Why the hell are you so excited?" Inuyasha asked looking genuinely confused.
Is he really that dense? Didn't I tell him a little while ago that Kagome had come to this world? Sango sighed and shook her head. She wasn't going to waste her time trying to explain it to him. I might as well just show him when Kagome comes again. I hope it's soon.

Bent over her desk working on some impossible math problem Kagome sighed and gave up. Glancing around her bedroom Kagome smiled. She liked her room. It was the one place where she could escape all the everyday problems in her life and just relax. It was decorated just the way she liked it too. The walls were painted black and on them were many different posters of her favourite bands. In one of the corners sat her bed. Kagome resisted it's inviting presence knowing how hard it would be get up once she laid down. Tearing her eyes away from her bed Kagome found herself staring at her overflowing bookshelf. Reading was one of Kagome's favourite pastimes and Kagome often found it difficult to find enough space to put all her books.
And I'll never have time to read if I don't finish this math... Kagome told herself sternly.
Turning back to her math Kagome just stared at the paper. Unwittingly her thoughts strayed back to a certain silver-haired boy for the hundredth time since their encounter this afternoon.
"ARGH! Get out of my head!" She yelled scaring her cat Buyo. He glared at her from his spot on the end of her bed and then closed his eyes once again.
"It must be nice having nothing to worry about but eating and sleeping..." Kagome told her cat.
Flicking his tale irritably, Buyo stood up and left her room.
"Ouch. That hurt." She called after her cat.
Shaking her head, Kagome went back to her math. I wonder if Dog-Boy has to do math too...Dammit! I'm doing it again!

Two hours and three math equations later Kagome yawned and decided that she was going to bed. Once she brushed her teeth and pulled on her pajamas she jumped into her bed and pulled her comforter up to her chin. Sighing with contentment Kagome closed her eyes and fell asleep almost instantly.

"Kagome!"
The sound of her name brought Kagome back to her senses. Looking around she realized that she was in the same clearing that she had been in last night. Glancing in the direction that her name came from Kagome saw a familiar face and smiled. "Sango. Nice to see you again."
"Same goes for you" Sango said. "Wanna finish what we started yesterday?"
It took a moment for Kagome to figure out what Sango meant. Then it dawned on her. "Oh ya! You were going to introduce me to your friends."
"Yup. Hopefully this time you don't disappear before you get to meet them."
"Then what are we standing around here for." Kagome said motioning with her hands. "Lead the way."
"Sure thing, Kagome." Sango said with a mock solute. "This way."
Walking in a comfortable silence Kagome took the opportunity to take in the sights. This world is so beautiful. Strange, yet beautiful...This thought shocked Kagome. Wasn't this just a dream? When had she started thinking of this place as a real world and not one of her minds illusions?
Shrugging her shoulders and telling herself not to think much about it Kagome went back to admiring the scenery. They had just passed Sango's village and were nearing the spot where she had disappeared last night. Involuntarily Kagome shuddered. The whole disappearing act had been just a little bit creepy. Definitely not something she did on a regular basis. But if I keep coming here in my dreams maybe it will become one of my daily routines. But how many people have the same dream more than twice? Let alone a continuation of the first dream. Oh well... I'll leave these thoughts for later... I wonder what Sango's friends will be like?
Suddenly Sango stopped dead in her tracks. Tensing a little bit she said, "Kagome. You are about to meet one of my friends. If that's what you wanna call him..."
Kagome barley had time to figure out what Sango said before she felt a hand on her behind. Screaming she whirled around and struck out with her fist.
"Ooooouch." The moan came from the ground and Kagome saw her tormenter. He was pretty good looking with his black hair tied back into a ponytail. His purple eyes shone with mischief and mock hurt.
"Serves you right, pervert." Sango walked over to the man and looked down, not offing him a hand up. "You should be ashamed. Preying on innocent girls like that."
"I'm so sorry Sango but I was blinded by the beauty of this gorgeous stranger." Then seeing the frown on Sango's face he corrected himself. "Of course, she is nothing compared to you, fair Sango."
Rolling her eyes Sango turned to Kagome. "Kagome meet Miroku, the resident pervert."
Getting to his feet Miroku bowed deeply and kissed Kagome's hand. "Nice to meet you lovely Kagome."
Face beet red, Kagome stuttered out an answer then hid behind Sango.
"You'll get used to him. Don't worry about it." Sango said over her shoulder to a shaken Kagome. "Sometimes he just can't help him-"
SMACK
Once again Miroku was lying on the ground, Sango standing angrily above him. "That is the last time I ever defend you!"
"But Sango be resonable. That wasn't fair! You taunted me with your beauty. That was cheap!"
"Quit complaining and get up. I'm taking her to see Inuyasha. You wanna come?" Sango said without even waiting for a reply. "Come on Kagome. It's this way."
Rising slowly from the ground Miroku called after her, "Umm Sango. I don't think this is the best time to take her to see Inuyasha. He isn't in a very good mood."

Inuyasha sat on one of his favourite branches and glared at nothing. It's all that girl's fault! Because of her he was in this mood. If she would just get out of his head then he could finally think straight but no. His thoughts were being as stubborn as the girl was. And her appearance. Why? Why did she have to look like the identical twin of the woman he hated? Was this some kind of sick joke? Well I'm sure whoever made it must be laughing now...
"If only I could remember her name..." Inuyasha muttered.

"Come on Kagome. We are almost there." Sango said excitedly.
Sango had led Kagome and Miroku through a forest. She seemed to know where she was going but Kagome was lost. In fact, Kagome was a little bit in awe of Sango's sense of direction. To Kagome, every tree they had passed so far looked the same.
"And here we are." Sango said stepping into a tiny meadow centered around a giant tree.
Kagome shaded her eyes from the sun and looked up at the tree. It took a second glance to notice a figure sitting up on a branch. I wonder how they got up there. Isn't it a little dangerous to be up that high?
"INUYASHA!" Sango called up at the figure in the tree. "Come down here for a second!"
"Why should I?" Inuyasha yelled back, deciding he was fine where he was. But then Inuyasha noticed that there were three people at the bottom of the tree instead of the normal two. His curiosity piqued Inuyasha stood up, stretched (can't seem too eager) and jumped down to the ground.
As soon as his feet hit the ground he heard a sharp intake of breath and looked for the first time at the stranger. "YOU!" The words just slipped out of his mouth before he could stop them (not that he wanted to).
"HE is your friend?" Kagome asked Sango trying to keep the scorn from here voice. So Dog-Boy has a name...Inuyasha...
"Inuyasha have you no manners? How come you act all surprised? Didn't you just tell me yesterday that you found the One and her name was Kagome?" Sango smirked, enjoying his frustration. Her smile widened when she saw the connection work itself out Inuyasha's eyes.
Glaring at both the girls Inuyasha just growled.
"The One? What are you talking about Sango? Where is this place and why am I here?" Once the questions started Kagome found it hard to stop them. "Why is it that I disappeared? How come I've never had dreams until now?"
Holding up on hand stopping Kagome's questions, Miroku spoke for the first time since they got there. Kagome had almost forgotten of his presence. "All your questions will be answered in due time but first I suggest you make your self comfortable. This could take awhile."
