Chapter 2:The Tree House, the Truth About Kagome, and A Very Mysterious Force

Inuyasha ran as fast as the wind and glided through the air. Kagome giggled. "Look, no hands!" Then she looked down and her eyes widened. "Uhhh, we are a little high, don't you think?" "You don't like it up here?" he asked. "Don't look down, don't look down." Kagome chanted over and over in her head. "I am alright." she said with her eyes closed.

"Uhhh, Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. "Yeah?" she said with her eyes still closed. "You can let go of me now, we've landed." "Ohhhh, sorry!" She said shyly and let go of him quickly and blushed. "Hey, where are we anyway?" she asked looking around. "We are lost." he said sarcastically. She glared at him. "Look up." She did as he said and blinked. "Wow, did you build that enormous tree house?" she asked still looking up at it. "Yup, with my own two hands." He grabbed her hand and jumped up off the ground dragging her with him and landed on the porch high up in the tree. "We could have used the ladder." she said while her heart pounded. "It takes longer." he said with a smirk. He opened up the door and nodded for her to go in. Miroku and Sango were already there, making tea. "It even has two stories!" Kagome said looking around glossy-eyed. "This is were we live." Sango said with a smile. Kagome blinked. "Ohhhh..." "Want some tea?" Sango said smiling. "Sure!" Kagome said.

"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked after taking a sip of her herbal tea. "Huh?" "What are you exactly?" Inuyasha just looked at her. "Did I say anything to offend you?" she asked. "No, you want to know what I am, I just don't want to scare you." He said looking at her, almost proudly. Sango and Miroku rolled their eyes. "Oh, yeah, right..." Kagome said sarcastically. "Well, I am actually..." He paused and his ears twitched. "I am a demon, well, half demon." "Cool......." she said walking around him. "You aren't scared?" he said with a confused look on his face. " No, I think it is cool." "Oh." "Are you like, a doggie demon or something?" she giggled. "Yeah, suuuure..." he said and sat down on the couch. Kagome jumped on the couch and went behind Inuyasha. "What are you doing?" He said looking up at her. His ears twitched again. "Ohhhh, how cute!" she squealed. Then she started to scratch his ears. "More to the left..." he said relaxed. Sango and Miroku just stared at them dumbly and then started chuckling. Kagome noticed them and said "Oh, sorry!" Then she jumped of the couch. Sango and Miroku kept on switching glances at Kagome and Inuyasha and then smirked. "WHAT?!" Kagome and Inuyasha said at the same time. "If you don't stop looking at me like that then I will claw your heads off!" he hissed at them. "Oooooh, you have claws too!" Kagome said smiling. "Yup." he said looking at his hands then smiled with pride. They both totally ignored Sango and Miroku. Kagome started messing with his ears again. "I wish I had doggie ears..." she giggled. "Where are you from?" Inuyasha asked Kagome. She sat down on the couch and so did everybody else. "Well, you guys probably won't believe me....." she said. "No matter what, we all will believe you." Sango said. "Unless it isn't true." Miroku said. Sango jabbed him in the ribs. "OUCH!" he yelled. "That is a stupid question, Miroku, just shut up!" Inuyasha hissed. "Well, I live in a city called Tokyo." "Tok-ee-o? Miroku sounded out. Sango and Inuyasha glared at him. "This morning, I was going to school....*she paused* and somebody or something was calling my name, but was nowhere in sight, I didn't know who they were. Then a bright flash blinded me and I woke up in this very forest. I wasn't in my city anymore. Then I found your school. And, it was weird...my schedule was the exact same in your guys school as in the one in Tokyo, my teachers even had the same names as the ones here...and now I am stuck in this feudal Japan with no way to get back home!" The she rested her head on her knees and tears came flowing down her eyes but she remained silent. "I-I just want to go home!" she said sadly still crying. Then she felt a hand run through her hair and looked up. "Inuyasha?" she said with tears in her eyes. Then she hugged him with her face against his chest and cried loudly. Inuyasha looked down at her with wide eyes. "**YAWN** I am going to bed..." Sango said after a while of smirking and smiling. "Me too..." Miroku said and they both walked away. Inuyasha held Kagome kind of *bridal style* in his lap then lied down. "Don't worry Kagome, I will help you get back to your era." Inuyasha whispered. Kagome looked up and Inuyasha wiped away her tears. She hugged him again. "I will protect you" he said softly and then fell asleep.

Sango came downstairs after a great night of sleep. She then saw Inuyasha and Kagome asleep on the couch. Kagome was sleeping in front of him and his arm was around her and it looked like she was holding onto his hand for dear life. Sango smiled and said quietly "Ahhh, sweet love..." Then Miroku came downstairs and saw them sleeping on the couch and said loudly "Awwwwwwwww..." "SHHHHH!" Sango said. Kagome turned around in her sleep and then was facing Inuyasha. She felt his warm breath against her face and she slightly opened one eye. She smiled as she saw his sleeping face and dog ears twitch. "He is so cute when he is sleeping...huh, what am I saying?" she thought to herself. Then she picked up his arm and lied it between both of them and she got up and stretched. "Well, hello sleepy head!" Sango said quietly and then smiled. Kagome yawned. Miroku came over and said "So what were you two doing after Sango and I went to bed?" he asked and then smirked. Sango jabbed him his ribs. "I don't remember...I just fell asleep...but Inuyasha said something, before we both fell asleep but I don't remember what he said, but it made me feel better somehow." Kagome said and then yawned. Inuyasha's ears twitched again and Kagome giggled. Sango and Miroku stared at her then smiled. Kagome's eyebrow raised and she looked at them weird. "What?" she asked confused then glared at them. "What time is it?" Kagome asked after a while. "It is 9:30 Miroku said staring at the clock. "I am so glad it is the weekend!" Sango said happily. "Ditto." Kagome said "But I don't normally get up this early." They all laughed. Kagome walked over and sat a kneeled down in front of the couch where Inuyasha was sleeping. "Kagome!" Inuyasha said in his sleep. "Don't...go...Kagome, don't...leave...me!" Then his ears twitched. Kagome looked at him weird and then giggled. She tapped him and then flicked his ear and he opened his eyes. His eyes widened and he got up and hugged Kagome and said "You didn't leave!" "Uhhh, Inuyasha, you're squishing me!" Kagome said. He loosened his grip but was still hugging her. He noticed Sango and Miroku looking at him strangely. "Are you alright, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked. "Huh, oh yeah, why?" "Because you are hugging Kagome and almost killing her!" "Oops, it's not my dream anymore!" Inuyasha said blushing. Everybody just looked at him weird. "What!" he growled. Miroku smirked and said "What were you doing in your dream?" he asked suspiciously. "What's it to you!" Inuyasha growled. "Because you were talking in your sleep!" Miroku said then laughed. "Huh?!" Inuyasha eyes widened. "Well, what did I say, come on, spit it out!" "You said" Miroku laughed. Inuyasha glared at him. "You said, Kagome, don't go Kagome, don't leave me here!" Miroku laughed even harder. Inuyasha blushed. "Oops...heh heh..." Kagome blushed a little. "It is ok Inu, I sometimes talk in my sleep too." Kagome giggled. "Ha, now Kagome is making up a pet name for Inuyasha, Inu, HA!" "SHUT UP MIROKU!" everybody yelled at him. Miroku fell (anime style). " I am starved, lets go get something to eat." Inuyasha said poking his stomach. "Where, Inuyasha, we don't have any money." Sango said. "I have five dollars..." Kagome said holding it in her hand. "Five dollars won't pay for all of us..." Miroku said and then his stomach growled. "We could hunt..." Kagome said pulling out her bow and arrows from her backpack that she found when she first came to feudal Japan. Inuyasha's ears twitched. "I guess that is a good idea, Kagome, we have no other option." he said and then his ears twitched one more. "Figures you would support Kagome, lover-boy." Miroku mumbled to himself. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!?" Inuyasha yelled in his face. "Ok, lets not fight because I am starved..." Kagome said while stepping between the two. Sango grabbed her big boomerang, Miroku picked up his staff, and Inuyasha grabbed his sword (A/N: you know, the Tetsusaiga? ^_^). Miroku stepped between Sango and Kagome and put his arms around their shoulders and said "Let's go, ladies!" and then his hands fell down their shoulders and touched their butts (accidentally). "HENTAI!" both Kagome and Sango said at the same time and Inuyasha, Kagome, and Sango punched Miroku in his gut as hard as they could. He fell to the ground. Inuyasha stepped over him and looked down at him and his ears twitched. Miroku's eyes slightly opened. "Serves you right, perverted monk!" Inuyasha hissed at him. "Ewwww, you spit on me!" Miroku said while trying to get up. "Good!" Inuyasha snapped at him. "Let's go people, I am starved!" Sango yelled already on the ground next to Kagome. Inuyasha ran out the door and jumped down off of the porch and landed next to Kagome. Miroku came sliding out of the door slowly. "Hurry up slowpoke, I am starving here!" Inuyasha yelled. Miroku locked the door and then slowly climbed down the ladder. Inuyasha grew really impatient and then ran up the ladder and grabbed Miroku and ran back to Sango and Kagome. "Wow....two seconds" Kagome said with her eyes really wide. "I am gifted" Inuyasha said then smirked. "We should split up to hunt quicker." Sango said as her stomach growled. "I will go with Sango!" Miroku said really loud and quick. Everybody just looked at him. "Then it is decided, Miroku goes with Sango and I guess I will go with Inuyasha." Kagome said smiling. "Suit yourself." Inuyasha growled and then ran off. "Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled and then ran after him. "Let's go, Miroku." Sango said calmly. Then Miroku ran up behind her. "HENTAI!" Sango screamed and then hit him with her boomer rang. "DON'T EVER GROPE ME...AGAIN!" she screamed even louder then usual.

**Meanwhile**

"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled and her voice echoed through the forest. "Where are you, Inuyasha?" Kagome yelled again. "I hope you aren't playing a game, you know I don't know the woods." she said and started to get worried. Then she heard something and saw a rabbit nibbling on a flower. Kagome quietly pulled out an arrow. She took aim and shot. ***She missed. "Damn!" she said and her stomach growled.

A half an hour passed and Kagome was really worried. "I-I think I am lost." Kagome said wearily. Then all of the sudden some strange force started to pull her. She couldn't pull away. "LET ME GO!" she screamed. It echoed through the woods.

"Did you hear that, Miroku?" Sango said looking worried. "No, what was it?" he asked looking at her weird. "It-it was Kagome, let's go!" Sango said and then dragged Miroku with her as she ran.

"HELP!" Kagome screamed again. "LET GO OF ME"! Then it started to push her towards a cliff. Kagome was getting closer and then saw about a one hundred foot drop to an ocean but she couldn't move, it felt like she was paralyzed. "HELP!" she screamed. Then the force pushed her off the cliff. She screamed as loud as she could. Then Sango and Miroku shown up. "Kagome!" Sango screamed. They listened but didn't hear no splash in the water below. Then they heard crying. "Help!" Kagome yelled while she was holding onto a root sticking out the side of the side of the cliff. Then Inuyasha appeared out of nowhere. "Kagome!" he yelled. He reached down the side of the cliff. "Grab my hand!" he ordered. "I-I can't!" she yelled back. "DO IT!" he ordered even louder. Kagome took one of her hands off of the root and went to grab Inuyasha's hand then the root broke and screamed "Inuyasha!" He ran back towards Sango and Miroku and then ran and dived down the cliff. "Kagome, I will save you, don't worry." Inuyasha thought to himself as he soared faster and faster towards Kagome. Kagome closed her eyes. "I am going to die, was this meant to be?" she thought to herself. The she felt something grab her waist. She opened up her eyes and saw Inuyasha holding on to her. She smiled and then he pushed off the side of the cliff and glided down. "Kagome, Inuyasha!" Sango said crying. Miroku stood there for a while and they didn't come back then tears came to his eyes. "May our friends...rest...in...peace." his voice quivered. He hugged Sango and they headed back to the tree house.
