Kk, im REALLY, REALLY, REALLY sorry for not being able to write for such a long time. Please forgive.

'Okay, Kagome, yes, you can heal my arm,' Sesshamarou looked sheepish about what he was going to say next, 'but no, I'm not going to the Shaolin monastery.' Kagome's eyes fell, but lit up again when she asked,

'Okay, but can you go to the Kalin Monastery? And can I come along?' Sesshamarou looked surprised.

'Why would you want to go there? All what they ever talk about is martial arts. For example, when they wake up, the first thing they say is 'martial arts sun','

Kagome fiddled with one of her black tresses, wondering if she should tell him. After all, what she was about to say was only between Kikyou and her. She was even afraid to think about the day when Kikyou was wheeled into the hospital, right into her ward. Kagome was sick with leukaemia at that time and could hardly recognize her twin sister. She looked dreamily out of the passenger window. Then, she decided,

'Sesshamarou, I am about to tell you something,' she said earnestly, 'And don't squeal like a girl until AFTER I'm finished, okay?' she asked. Sesshamarou nodded, puzzled.

'First of all, well... let me just tell you what really happened to Kikyou. You see, the reason we look so much alike is that we're twins. When she heard that I was in the hospital with leukaemia, she pretended that she got sick so that she could share a ward with me. Imagine my surprise when she was wheeled in! She explained how she doesn't want to be Inuyasha's playmate anymore and was intending on going either to the Shaolin monastery or the Kalin monastery to study martial arts. I had to help her by first, staging her death and then, staging my own. I only managed on the part about staging her death. My own death wasn't that easy and I failed, but nevertheless, Kikyou is finally free AND just to top it off, she's away from Inuyasha. Do you understand why I want to go to the Kalin monastery now?' she asked. Sesshamarou opened his mouth. For a moment, Kaogme thought that he was going to scream and plugged her ears. But what came out was this,

'So you mean that she wasn't dead at all?' he asked. Kagome nodded.

'I just staged her death, bought a coffin and laid a piece of wood in it.' Kagome closed her mouth and gave him a fiery stare,

'If you tell another soul about this, and I'll promise you that you won't see the day light of tomorrow,' She said, cracking her knuckles so that he would see she wasn't joking, 'and NEVER tell Inuyasha, or else you dear little brother's life would be in grave peril. He would want to find Kikyou and then when she sees him, she'll...' Kagome pursed her lips, thinking she said too much and continued to look outside. Sesshamarou rested a hand on her shoulder.

'I see, your sister is Kikyou and she asked you to stage her death so that she could escape.' Kagome nodded.

'And you want to go to the Kalin monastery to see her,' Kagome sighed,

'Were you listening to me at all? Yes,' she snapped.

'Temper, temper,' said Sesshamarou leaning closer to her, 'If you promise me one thing, then I'll take you to the Kalin monastery.' Kagome cocked her head sideways,

'I don't care what it is, as long as I can see Kikyou again... I'll do anything.'

Sesshamarou nodded,

'Tomorrow, I have a feeling that Kagura is going to come again, and can you do me a favor...?'

Kagome giggled,

'Oh that!' she said, 'Of course, remember the eyeliner?' Sesshamarou grinned as the car stopped.

'so when are we going to the Kalin monastery?' asked Kagome as they stepped up the front door of the mansion,

'Whenever you want, but I can't book a flight for tomorrow,' he said, opening the door. Inuyasha fell back. He had been pressing his ears to the door, listening to the conversation.

'When are we going to the Kalin monastery?' he asked innocently. At the word Kalin, Sango, who as been working in the kitchen, stopped and dropped at least ten dishes.

'Kalin? We're going to the Kalin monastery?' her eyes were sparkly. Kagome looked at Sesshamarou,

'I guess we need to have two more passenger seats,' she said, closing the door.

Kk, I'll leave it there. Review!
