Don't tell

Kurama's pov: "Hello, Kagome." Said the woman Kagome called Alaire "Um...What cha doing here?" asked Kagome nervously "Well I'll tell you the details later in private, but I need your help." Said Alaire "Okay...could you please excuse me and Kurama for a minute?" Kagome asked "Sure!" replied Alaire as she sat down on a near by fallen tree

Me and Kagome walked a river that was near and stood by it. "Um...Kurama...I'll probably be gone for a few days. I need you to tell the others I gone to get some important items. Please don't tell them I've gone off for a...different reason..." said Kagome as she looked into the river and twisted her fingers

"What is this 'different reason'?" I asked curiously and suspiciously narrowed eyes "A, A favor...Don't worry it's nothing dangerous just a debt." Kagome said nervously, I knew she was lying 'I wonder what this Alaire has planned...Alaire...where have I heard that name before...' I thought "Well I better not keep her waiting. I'll be back as soon as I can." Kagome said as she started to walk away but I grabbed her arm and turned her around and pulled her close

Kagome's pov: I started to walk away, ashamed of myself for lying to Kurama, when I was grabbed, turned around, and pulled closely to Kurama. I looked up to emerald green eyes, I thought I saw his eyes turn gold but it was gone so fast I could have imagined it. "Don't go...I know your lying about nothing dangerous...I don't want you to be hurt...If not then let me go with you...I can help you with whatever you have to do..." he said

"I'm sorry...I can't. This is something I have to do alone, and don't worry I can defend myself...I'll come back in one piece..." I said getting lost in his emerald orbs "...I..." he started but a twig...well a LARGE 'twig', snapped him on instant alert and he let go of me and swiftly turned around. I saw who snapped the twig and smiled. I turned around and ran into the clearing where Alaire was waiting for me. We both smiled and nodded and quickly ran out of the clearing.

"Thanks for sending Jessie as a distraction. I don't think I would have survived lying to him, and I'm too afraid of having him find out my 'job' and hate me for it." I said thankfully and sadly "One thing: Your welcome and two: If I'm not mistaking I believe he SHARES a body with a thief, a legendary kitsune thief. So I don't think he will hate you." Alaire said as she smiled at me "Your right! I forgot about that...and how did YOU know that?" I asked

"Oh, I just over heard your group talking about it...well more pacifically 4 men at a hot spring. The dumb one, the hanyou, the hentai, and the punk I believe." Said Alaire with a finger on her chin tapping it with a false thinking look on her face. "Alaire!" I scolded "What?" asked Alaire innocently

"You just can't stop peeping on men can you. Ever since I first met you that's been like your only hobby." I said laughing "Hey I can't help it, and I have other hobbies too!" Alaire said "But every man we meet you stare at him like he's a god!" I said "I resent that! There are men that make my skin crawl, like that Naraku dude and ...what was his name...Kuwaka no...Kuwana...no...Kuwabaka...Kuwabara yeah Kuwabara, there's some examples for ya!" said Alaire

I just laughed and we stopped running and walked to the hide out...forgetting to hide our trails...

Kurama's pov: I turned around seeing what madder the sound and scolding myself for getting distracting. When I turned around I saw a female with dark brown hair and gray looking eyes. "Who are you and what do you want?" I asked in a smooth cold voice

"Who I am is of no concern, and I want nothing. I just came to distracted you so Kagome can sneak away..." she said as I swiftly turned around and saw no Kagome. I turned around to face the mysterious woman but saw no one.

'Interesting...Kagome's definitely hiding something ...' said Youko 'I know.' I said 'Why don't we follow her. I can smell her trail. Obviously we can follow her.' Said Youko 'I don't know...I don't want her to get mad at us and lose her trust in us.' I said'I said follow, not reveal didn't I ' said Youko '...fine...' I said

I started to head to the forest when the name Alaire hit me. I smiled. 'Youko's adopted daughter...'
