AN: Yay! Inuyasha shall return next chapter! I'm sorry if this chapter is a little short, I'm trying to get a chapter posted on this fic as well as my LOTR fic before Thursday, because Thursday I leave for vacation and will be gone for a week, and I won't have much time to write for a while, so I hope you enjoy this chapter!

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. Simple as that, even though I wish I did.

Chapter 6- Study session and a surprise

Kagome shifted silently in her seat, glancing up at the clock, while trying to keep her attention on the teacher, who was explaining something that involved partners and writing a paper.

""Normally I wouldn't assign this type of project, but I want you to learn something about your assigned artist for a future project." The class was silent. There was no use in asking if they could choose their partners, they knew this teacher picked their partners for them.

The teacher quickly paired them up and gave them the rubric for their paper, the artist's name was written at the top. The teacher had obviously noticed the growing friendship between Isamu and Kagome, for she paired them together- something most teachers would avoid doing, thinking that friends would talk more than work on the assignment.

Kagome sighed as she glanced over the rubric. She hated writing papers for English as it was, so having to write a paper for art wasn't making her to happy.

"Picaso. A paper on him should be fairly easy." Isamu commented, more for Kagome to hear than for himself.

"We can work on it tonight, if we have time." Kagome glanced at the clock again. "I don't think we should even bother starting anything on it yet, we don't really have enough time to get anything done anyway." Isamu nodded in agreement and put the rubric in his folder.

"What time should I come over?" Kagome thought a moment before responding.

"Around six or so." Isamu nodded again. The rest of the class period, which was only five minutes, passed in silence. Both were eager to leave, the sooner school was out, the sooner the study session would begin.

Isamu was eager for different reasons than Kagome. Tonight, although it was sooner than he had hoped for, he would overcome the biggest obstacle in his reaching the feudal era, opening the well.

As Kagome was walking home a nagging feeling developed in the back of her mind. The kind that usually meant that someone was watching her. She stopped and looked around, nobody, as far as she could tell, was paying special attention to her. She started walking again. The feeling grew, and with it the presence of a demon grew.

She stopped walking again, but this time remained still, focusing her miko powers on the area around her in an attempt to find the demon that was following her.

You won't find me, miko. I am far more powerful than you are. A voice spoke to her, she glanced around. You won't find me, though you can't ignore me. The demonic presence dissipated as the voice registered in Kagome's mind. That demon.... Was he the one from my dream?

Isamu looked down at the address in his hand, then back up at the shrine before him. This is it. The thought went through his mind, but he pushed it down. Not yet. We aren't even sure she trusts us yet. He argued with himself as he walked up the steps to the shrine. Once he was at what appeared to be the house he knocked quietly. A few seconds later Kagome opened the door.

"Come in." She stepped aside to let him in. Motioning for him to follow, she made her way back to the table where her biology book lay open. She had been working on her other homework, trying to get it all done before six, so that she wouldn't have to worry about it possibly not getting done before school the next day.

Quickly she closed her biology book and slipped it into her backpack, pulling out her geometry book in its place.

Several hours passed, Isamu acted like he was beginning to understand what Kagome was explaining to him, which wasn't really that hard, considering he already knew the material.

After finishing her explanation of one of the problems Kagome looked at her watch. It was already eight, she had been explaining the assignment for two straight hours, and hadn't realized it.

"Do you understand it now?" She asked him quietly, fully aware that she had probably lost him in the explanation, or bored him to the point that he was confused.

"Yeah. Thank you for explaining it to me. You're a great teacher." He smiled at her, speaking truthfully.

Kagome lead Isamu toward the door, deciding that since the study session was over, and since it was getting late, that it was time for Isamu to leave. Isamu taped into her mind, instantly deciding that he wasn't going to leave just yet, not when he knew Kagome trusted him and he had the perfect chance to further his plans even more.

"Kagome, can you show me around the shrine? I've never been to one." He asked softly, they had already reached the door.

"Yeah, I guess I could, though it is kind of dark." Kagome shrugged. She didn't sense anything wrong with his intentions, so she opened the door and stepped outside, closing the door securely after Isamu was outside with her. "Come on." She started walking away from the house, towards the god tree.

Before Kagome could start to give him a quick tour he taped into her mind again, this time messing with her thoughts. He displaced her memory of the study session, hiding it with a black haze that could only be lifted by him, or if he died.

"Huh?" Kagome mumbled to herself. She was dizzy, and the person next to her was just smiling, seemingly oblivious to her discomfort.

"Kagome- Koishii, are you alright." The kitsune wrapped his arm supportingly around Kagome's waist.

"Hai Isamu." She shook the dizziness off, "what were we doing again?" She asked him softly, confused as to why she couldn't remember what she had been doing for the past few hours.

"You said you were going to open the well, so that we could return to our home in the feudal era." Isamu smiled when Kagome nodded and left his arms, determinedly bound for the well house.
