"Guys I would like to go back to the taijiya no mura. I need to visit the graves again." Sango said in a low voice, sad and unwanted. Miroku looked at her and nodded, "I'll go with you..." She nodded back at him. "Okay. When do you think you guys will be back?" Sango looked at Kagome. "I need to repair my Hiraikotsu too. It crack on one of the edges. About three days I guess..." Kagome nodded and turned to Inuyasha. He nodded. "Ja Kagome, Ja Inuyasha, Ja Shippo!" "JA!" Kagome and Shippo said as Inuyasha stood against the house. They flew off on Kilala and disappeared in the distance. Kagome turned to Inuyasha, "Why didn't you say good-bye?" Inuyasha stepped off the ground, lifting off the hut. "Ah, they know how I am..." he said walking toward the forest path. "Where are you going?" "Goshinboku" She watched as he walked into the forest. 'What's wrong with him? It's as if he's lost in his thoughts a lot lately...' she thought turning to the hut. "Oi Kagome?" She turned to Shippo. "Yes?" "Um...well...why is Inuyasha look so sad?" "I don't know Shippo. He hasn't told me why he is sad." They walked into the house.

---------------------------------------

Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks as he smelled a familiar scent. He went through the trees and found her. There she layed, on the braches of Goshinboku. A blewish glow to her as the Shinidama Chuu flew around her. "Kikyo..." Her eyes fluttered open to his voice. She slipped down off the branches. Floating down as the shinidama chuu collected her and brought her down safetly on her two feet. She looked at him, face emotionless, as they flew off of her. "Inuyasha." He looked at her with wide eyes. "Why are you here Kikyo?" She walked up to him. Standing infront of him. "What I cannot come here?" "That's not what I ment...Is Naraku after you again?!" She shook her head, "No. I had come here to see the tree..." She turned to it and then walked to the side, "And now I must be goi--" She turned to stare at the hand that was around her wrist. She looked up into the amber eyes. "Inu--" "No...Don't leave!" he said bringing her into an embrace. "Don't leave again..." She put her arms around him. Soon she pulled away and leaned against him.

Their lips locked as she kissed him. He was surprised at first but gave it back in return. He cut the kiss when he heard a sharp gasp. He jerked his head to see the intruder. His eyes softened. She stood there eyes wide with a bag of chips by her feet. He heard that fall with the gasp. She started to back away. He let go of Kikyo and started to walk forward, "Kagome..." Her eyes went wider to her name. She couldn't help the large ball that formed in her throat. She turned and ran. Not to the village but back to her time. She didn't even bother to get her bag, she left it. She held the shikon shards in her grasp as she ran to the well. She stopped at the ledge. Looking back to see no one follow as her tears fell on the wood. She turned back and looked in the darkness. She stood on the ledge and jumped down. The timeslip tried to comfort her. She could hear the well moan with Goshinboku. She could feel it's comfort, but it wasn't enough.

-----------------------------------

Inuyasha looked back at Kikyo. She had no emotion again. "Do you care for that girl Inuyasha?" Inuyasha looked away. "Then you best be going after her..." He was shocked at her answer as he snapped his head back to where she stood. She was gone. "Kikyo...? Kikyo!" No answer came to him. He looked down and Kagome's face flashed through his head. Her eyes full of the tears that didn't fall. The mouth that was open slightly, hard breathes releasing from its hollows. He turned and ran in the direction she retreated. He knew as soon as he didn't feel her presence that she had gone to the well. He ran faster as her scent started to fade from his time. He stopped as his palms hit the sides of the well. He looked down and didn't hesitate to jump in.

-------------------------------

Kagome got out as quick as she could. She started running again. She passed her mom who had groceries. She heard her mom yell her name but she never answered her. She ran down the shrine stairs into the busy streets of Toyko. She ran down the blocks from her house. Trying her best to get away from anything that reminded her of Inuyasha. She kept running till she ended up at a park. She fell to her knees, struggling to get her breathe, as tears were absorbed into the ground. She got up again and ran into the park. Into the forest to the side of it. Into a place she called her own. Somewhere where he can't find her.

--------------------------

Inuyasha hopped out of the well. Kagome's scent was faint and when he got out of the well house, it was practically gone. "Inuyasha?" Inuyasha turned to Miss.Higurashi. "Yo..." "What's wrong with Kagome?" He flinched to the question. "Can't answer that. Trying to fix that problem at the time...but I can't--her scent is gone..." Miss.Higurashi sighed, "I saw her run down straight, possibly towards the park...please just--" She couldn't finish since Inuyasha ran off to retrieve her daughter. "...don't hurt her..." She turned and went into the house.

---------------------

He sprinted, dodging the on coming cars. 'Kagome...' Her shocked face flashed through his mind again. He flinched and sped up. 'Please just listen to me...'

-------------------

She stopped at a tree and sank down next to it. She touched the marking on it. It was a heart imbedded into it. Her mom's name and her father's withen it. She smiled as the tears kept falling. She took her hand away and looked at the warm pools of salty water on her legs, soon trickling down them as she moved. She looked up at the setting sun. 'Why?' "...why...?"

Suddenly she heard movement in the trees as the wind moaned. Told her to run, but she couldn't. She wouldn't. He jumped out of the trees landing on the ground swiftly. He looked at her with guilty eyes. Full of fear, sadness, and grief.
