Chapter 3

Inuyasha's POV

'Oh Kami! My head!' I woke up to the smell of herbs.

I suddenly remembered what happened, and I knew it was only cause I hadn't used my feet in so long. But everyone will just think I'm lying, so I won't say anything.

I decided to see how much thee hut had changed. Kaede making potions, that used to be Kikyo, herbs neatly shelved, I guess that doesn't change, the taijiya sleeping next to me,

The miko clothing... wait a second, why is she sleeping next to me?

"Ah ye are awake. The taijiya has been worried about thee." Said Kaede, what would that old hag know.

"Feh!" Why would Sango worry about me.

Kaede's POV

'Inuyasha is quite the lady's man.' I thought 'I just wish I had the same chance as both the child and my sister had.'

Flashback

I took my usual route to get herbs until I went back. That's when I decided to make a visit to Inuyasha's forest. There were always rumors circulating about him. Some said that he is the most powerful demon in the land, and that he tricked Kikyo into loving him. Others say he was abandoned at birth, and his arrogance is just a mask. They also say, it was a powerful demon that tricked them into hating each other. I prefer to think that the second and last one are true.

I came up to the tree that Inuyasha was pinned to, and I was stunned, never had I seen him in this light. I felt a pang of guilt. I felt like I was disrespecting the memory of my dearly departed sister. I climbed to the top of the Goshinbuko tree. I reached out, trying to touch him. Suddenly a wave of energy pushed me back. I landed on the floor and started wheezing.

"Fuck!" I knew that I would never be as strong as my sister, so I would never get the chance to love Inuyasha.

Alright, so there you have it, the third chapter. I know it's probably not what you want, but trust me, this is important to the story line. I'm sorry for not getting this out quicker, my sister came back from vaca and has been hogging the computer. The top of the poles say that most of you want me to keep everyone from the original cast. Of course I will bash Kagome and Inuyasha will still be paired with Sango, and who knows, Kagome might get lucky. See you all in Hell!
