I Saw You, Did You See Me?

"I'm going home," Kagome announced to her friends. I have a Math test to take tomorrow."
"Your not going home," Inuyasha barked. We have shards to collect. You can't be running off to your time every few days! You staying here wench!"
She smiled and said sweetly," Inuyasha."
"Yeah?"
"SIT!" He fell face first into the ground. "I'll be back in a couple days." She jumped down the well. The light danced around her as she traveled through it.
"Ow," she said rubbing her head. She got out of the well and made her way into the house. There she put down her stuff on her bed. 'I guess I need to restock on supplies.' She went into the bathroom cabinet and searched for a First Aid kit. 'Ah ha'. Then she went into the kitchen and searched through the fridge and cabinets.
After sticking all of the food she had into her bag, she plopped down on her bed. She was exhausted. Something popped in her mind. 'A bath. Just what I need right now.'

She dried herself off and put her pajamas on. She took out her Math book and sat at her desk. 'Better take a quick look at this before the test tomorrow.' She opened it up and started to to do some problems in her notebook. She shook her head in frustration.
"I hate Math," she said to no one. Her thoughts drifted away from her book in front of her to her friends in the feudal era. She often wondered what they did when she was gone. Sango and Miroku always told her "nothing but wait till you came back".
She also heard that Inuyasha would mope around when she left. That made her giggle. It was nice to know that he cared. Her thoughts shifted again. This time to Kikyou. 'If Inuyasha cares about me so much, why does he keep going to see her?'
She just couldn't figure it out. A couple things she learned in the past month only made her feel hurt inside. 'If he can't choose between us. Then one of us will have to find someone else. I can't just sit around and wait for him to decide. What if he chooses Kikyou in the end?'
Kagome didn't even want to think about it. He hurt her enough going to see her every time she was around. It always broke Kagome's heart. 'This is the final straw. I can't stand it anymore. Kikyou can have him. Like my friends said "you deserve better, so don't you ever settle for less".'
She closed her Math book and put it in her bag. She couldn't concentrate tonight. Too much stuff was going on in her head. 'Inuyasha, It's over. I'm not going to chase after you any more.'
With that out of her mind, she drifted off to sleep.

"Sis, have you seen Buyo (sp?)," Souta asked as he ran up to his older sister. He's missing I can't find him anywhere."
She sighed. "Look in the well."
He put his hands behind his head. "I rather not. You look as you always go down there."
She walked down the stairs that led to the well. "Buyo," she called. She heard a meow coming from the bottom of the well. She bent down to pick him up. She lost her footing and slipped down the well.
"Great I'm back in the feudal era." She looked around and noticed Souta looking down at her with Buyo in his arms. "I wonder why I didn't travel through." She shrugged and climbed out. "It's probably nothing serious. I guess I'll go back after my test."

She started to work on her test. 'I'll never pass this!' She turned and looked out the window. She saw a demon with red hair and another one that was slightly shorter with black hair and-
"Kagome, are you paying attention?" The teacher asked.
"Sorry," Kagome apologized.
'I know I just saw two demons there a second ago. But that can't be possible. Only Inuyasha can travel through the well.' She looked out the window once more. 'It must have been my imagination.'
With that thought dismissed from her mind, her attention turned back to her test. She was still frustrated. How could any one pass a test as hard as this? 'Who else here goes to the feudal era? I never have time to study. I'm always to busy.' She was probably the only one who thought this test was hard.
'What is the answer to this problem?!' she screamed in her mind.
'-5.'
'Who said that?' She looked around the room to see no one but her fellow classmates. 'I must have been imagining things again.' After she worked out the question, something popped in her mind. 'If it was me or my imagination, they were right about the answer!'
The bell rang.
She handed her test to the teacher, quite proud about how she did. At first she thought it was impossible. But whoever or whatever gave her the answer to that one problem really helped her out in the long run.
She walked home in quiet. Her friends bothered her earlier so they weren't with her now. But she still couldn't get what she saw in Math off her mind. 'Were those demons real or just a figment of my imagination?' She pondered on this for a while.
The sign said 'Don't walk'. Kagome was to lost in thought to notice. A truck came rushing towards her, and it couldn't stop in time. She finally snapped out of her thoughts and saw the truck. 'I'm going to die! Kami-sama, I'm going to die!
She put her books in front of her hoping it would provide her some protection. She waited to get hit, but it never came. 'W-what? How did I live? It was headed straight for me! I couldn't have gotten away! I didn't even move my legs!'
She looked in front of her to see that 'demon' she saw in school, the shorter one. After she closed her eyes and opened them again, he was gone. 'I think I'm just tired. That truck must have been my imagination.'
She stood up with the building wall used as support. 'I think I just need to go home and rest. Yeah, that's it. Then I can go to back to the feudal era and forget all about this.'

"Why are we helping that ningen?" The shorter demon asked.
"Hiei, she is the only one who can help us," the red haired one said.
"Hn."
"If you didn't save her we will never have had a chance to be free."
"Let's go Kurama."

"How was your day dear?" Kagome's mother asked her.
"It was pretty good. I think I did really well on the Math test. It was easy once I learned how to do it an easier way." She stuffed more food into her mouth before continuing. "I can't wait to see what I get on it."
"Good for you," her mother said happily. How did you do on your Math test Souta?"
"I got a C on it," he replied quite proud of himself.
"When you get an A is the day I'll give you twenty dollars," Kagome said.
"Really?!"
"Yep."
"Cool."
After she finished dinner she went into her room and grabbed her bag full of stuff for the feudal era. 'Better get going. I don't want Inuyasha to come to get me this time. That would be bad.'
She jumped down the well, but nothing happened.
"W-What?!" She said with a shocked face. 'I can't get through the well! What's wrong?!'
"Kagome what's wrong?" Her grandpa asked eyeing her suspiciously.
"I can't get through the well. I don't understand!"
Her grandpa took a closer look at it. "It's been sealed."
"By what?"
"A demon."
"How do we lift the seal?"
"Only the one who placed it there can lift it's magic. It's sealed on both sides."
She couldn't listen anymore. She ran inside and up to her room. There she lay on her bed and cry. 'I will never get to see them again. Sango, Miroku, Shippou, Kaede, Inuyasha, and Kouga. I miss them already.'
She looked out her window. 'Heck, I'll even miss Sesshomaru.' Then her thoughts centered on one question. 'How can a demon seal the well? If it's sealed on both sides, what side did it seal it on? Probably in the feudal era. There are no demons here. But why?'
All this thinking only made her head hurt. "I will not cry!" She sat up on her bed and looked out her window. Then she saw it.
" A d-demon?"
It lunged its claw at her and successfully hit, leaving a gash in her right arm. She closed her eyes. She didn't want to die. Especially by a demon. She opened them to see the two demons from earlier standing in front of her. The demon that attacked her was gone. 'Who are they?'
