General Author's Note: This story is written by Inu Kaiba and Roxyfoxy, a joint project. All reviews are for both, so you'll know. Please visit her profile and read her works also! The link is in my profile.
Inu Kaiba: Definitely a horrible start. But it'll get better. I hope. I was relying on my old crappy skills at the beginning, so that's why it sucks… I apologize in advance for any OOC at the beginning…

Shippo ran in really happy. "Isn't today the day Kagome comes back?"
"That's right." InuYasha said smiling. "She said she had some tests but she'll be back soon."
"I'm off to the well, now. Wanna come wait with me Shippo?"
"Yeah sure!" he squealed bouncing up and down in his cute kitsune way.
"All right, follow me." He said leading Shippo off to the well

Meanwhile…
-
"God dammit. I'm losing my head just rushing to go to the Feudal era. He's probably going to bitch at me like he always does. Feh my room is so disorganized… God dammit I got to stop caring about this!"
Kagome's room had her books, papers, scattered all over the floor, and around her bedside.
Kagome quickly placed a brush through and jolted out her bedroom door, with her backpack hung over her shoulder
Sota glanced out of his bedroom door curiously with paper and pencil in his hand. For hours he had struggled, getting frustrated on a math test. "Umm… Kagome I need your help..."
Kagome had already had her hand on the door knob, while he watched her cringe with anger hearing Inuyasha's angry voice already running through her head. "Gee, doesn't surprise me that you're late. You can never be on time. You bitch at me for being late! God damn it Kagome you need to learn to make a promise without god damn breaking it!"
Kagome shuddered at the thought, and furious she had to be interrupted at the wrong time. Sota gulped noticing her twitch and standing there and awful silence.
"What's with everyone bugging me today! First my room, now my brother… it's my freaking fault I'm late! Grr... He blames everything on me. Blames me for being late because everyone is flying at me with their problems. You'd be extremely close to the well but it wouldn't help you get there faster. But no... Everyone has to piss me off... What the hell do I look like? A saint! No!"
Sota waited for a response. He seemed nervous waiting for his sister to reply to him. He knew the moment she went silent like that and shuddered; it was better to back away and acted like nothing happened
"Umm Kagome..." He whispered swallowing again
Kagome just looked down heavily breathing in and out getting furious by the minute. "I'll show Inuyasha. I'll show him I'm not taking his bullshit. He knows he'll get sat. That asshole… That jerk… The fact that I care..."
"Umm earth to Kagome…?"
Kagome's head just rose when she heard her thoughts crash by her brother's voice. She just whipped her head around, beaming at him with her hands transformed into fists. "What the hell do you god damn want?"
"Umm Kagome, you alright?" Kagome just placed a fake distorted smile on her face making her look much more crazy than usual.
"Of course... Never felt better..." She grinned while Sota took a step back to be safe.
"Did you and Inuyasha get into a fight again...?" Kagome felt herself snap that instant.
She always heard that line every time she was mad. From her mom, her brother, her grandfather, Sango, Miroku, everyone... She hated it. It made it sound like they were a couple and they were fighting all the time
"Sota leave me the hell alone! Don't expect me to help you with anything! Get the hell out of my way!" Kagome screamed smacking her brother out of the way and flew out the door and towards the well.
-
InuYasha sat down beside the well, ears twitching. "Feh, it figures. She's always late."
"InuYasha, you shouldn't be so hard on her..." Shippo said. "Aw, who needs your two cents?" He spat turning away.
"You going to give her a hard time?"
"Does it look like I want to get sat?"
"...No."
"Then I probably won't."
"...What do you plan to do...? Then?"
"That's between me and...ME!"
Shippo stared at InuYasha like he'd grown a third head, and had freaky spots on his arms. "Ok then..." and smiled for emphasis. 'However,' he thought to himself. 'InuYasha is truly a weird crazy idiot.'
Shippo looked at InuYasha. "What's your take on Naraku?" he asked looking bored, and yawning. It was definitely noticeable that the tension was thick and that they were both bored out of their skulls sitting there waiting.
"Feh," InuYasha said. "He's a bastard that needs to die. He's also an ugly monkey. I will take pleasure the day I rip his head off and see the blood spatter to the floor. Or when Tetsusaiga rips through his neck and his head flies through the air. I'll be laughing, no matter how crazy I look. What do you think of him?"
"I want to kick his butt."
"You know that won't happen Shippo."
"...You're right."
"You know Shippo, when you're older, you'll be able to kick butt just like the rest of us, instead of just drawing it all on paper."
"Shut up! I'm sick of you all saying, oh you'll be better when you grow up!"
InuYasha looked at Shippo as if he had suddenly turned into Naraku. "What's with you?"
"What's up with me? I'm sick of you all treating me like some little shit, that can't do anything. By the time I grow up, Naraku will either be dead... Or he'll have taken over the entire world! By the time I grow up, it'll be too late!"
"You know what screw you, you can fuck off with Kagome, I'm going to be ON MY OWN, and try BY MYSELF to beat Naraku. Good bye." And with that, Shippo walked off, not even glancing back
InuYasha glowered at Shippo as he trailed off angrily, and then turned his gaze back to the well, ears twitching eagerly awaiting Kagome. "Stupid brat... He'll be back. I know he will. He thinks he's so cool just because he hangs out with us, but he's really too young to do anything."
-
Kagome slung her backpack over her shoulder noticing Sota in the window, with a pitiful look on his face. "Always in a rush for Inuyasha. I'm late enough anyways. I guess I could help Sota for a bit..."
Kagome had an exhausted look on her face, still awaiting for him to bitch her out like there was no tomorrow. Still, she knew she was late enough and that he could wait a little bit longer.
"Sota..." Sota popped his head out the door with the paper and pencil still in his hand.
"I thought you were leaving Kagome..." Kagome sighed and placed a smile on her face, grabbing the paper and pencil from his hand.
"Well Inuyasha should learn to wait. I'm late enough as it anyways. So I could spend a little bit of time helping ya..."
Sota placed a huge grin on his face, as Kagome sat down on the floor correcting everything, feeling herself twitch at the fact he could come through the well and bitch her out. "Sota… A right angle is 90 degrees... And that's a straight angle, meaning its 180 degrees..." Kagome went on placing it into his hands faking a smile. "You understand now?" Sota looked up to her and gave her an unexpected hug. "Thanks Kagome."
Kagome smiled and pushed him away a bit. "If you didn't help me I'd likely fail..." Kagome grabbed her bag and glanced at the clock that said at least 6:30. Her eyes opened wide knowing she had spent more time than she though she did. "Oh crap! He's going to hate my guts...well I'll bring this to fix it." Kagome said placing something into her bag and rushing to the well.
-
He sighed, and then stared down the well, sniffed once, and then again. "Nope." he said to himself. "She's nowhere nearby..."
Needless to say he was bored and frustrated. So, he decided to play a game. He called it: Thinking of ways he 'WOULD' torture Kagome for always being late 'IF' he 'COULD' without being 'sat'.
"First I would yell at her. Then I would call her a bitch. Then I would teach her never to be late. Then I'd play hang man, like that game in Kagome's era. Except she'd be the man I'd hang. And the correct phrase would most likely be, "I'm so sorry InuYasha, I'll listen to you and swear I'll never be late again." Yeah, that would work." He said to himself.
"Feh, I'm not going to sit here waiting like an obedient puppy dog. She can come back with no one waiting for her." He turned and walked in the complete opposite direction of the well, into the forest that was named after him.
He remembered how Kikyou had pinned him to the tree in that forest, which had irritated him to no end. Suddenly he was sent sprawling and his face hit the ground.
"WHO THE FUCK PUSHED ME OVER!" He screamed to no avail as it appeared no one was in the vicinity. He scanned the area and finally realized what he'd tripped on, most likely because he hadn't been paying attention.
"A book?" he asked as he sat on the ground cross legged and flipped through the pages. Then his expression changed to one of wide eyed shock. The thick, heavy, hard covered book contained black and white sketches of naked men and women.
InuYasha stared at the book as if it had bitten him. "I will not let this book near Miroku."
He chanted it over and over. "I will not let this book near Miroku, I will not let this book near Miroku, I must hide this book from Miroku."
InuYasha didn't understand most of the book, but the name written on the inside cover he understood. He would always know the kanji for that name. "Ka-go-me…" He pronunciated, sounding out every syllable. "Well, if this is hers then..." A smirk graced his face and he began laughing. "I am so not giving this back, she can suffer without it. She can think of it as her punishment for always being late."
He laughed some more and ran far, far into the forest. Little did he know he would never see the textbook again, and that she could never get it replaced, because of how old it was. He stopped when he was sure he was far enough in the forest that almost no one would find the book.
With that taken care of, He dug his nails into the ground and dug until he had a decent sized hole. Then he dropped the book inside, scooping the dirt on top of the hole as he went. He patted the soil and added last minute touches, making it look like nothing had ever happened, and no one had ever touched the earth there, save the feet that walked over it.
-
Kagome placed her one foot in the well, flying in mid air for a moment until she softly landed at the bottom of the well. "Hmph… hopefully this stuff will make it better. If not then he knows what's coming to him..." She muttered to herself grabbing the vine and sitting on the edge of the well.
Kagome looked around noticing it was already sunset and Inuyasha wasn't near the well at all. The sunlight stung her eyes, as she placed her hand on her face to shield the light so she could see around her. "That's just like him. Now I have to go find him... Figures..."
Kagome sat for a moment and admired the scenery. Beautiful she absolutely adored it. She looked up to the purple pink sky and stood for a moment calling Inuyasha. "Inuyasha? Where the hell are you... He can't expect me to go looking for him..."
Kagome huffed taking a couple steps towards the dense forest, pushing away every branch and twig that was in her face. She felt a couple smack her hard as she pushed herself through, wincing at the pain she felt burning on her cheek.
"This would have been easier if he just waited for me!" Kagome muttered, placing her hands out and careful walking through everything. She took another step and felt herself fall and tumble down a hill, feeling her body slam and touch every rock leaving her to roll down with red marks all over her body.
-
With that finished, he held his hands behind his back, one hand inside the other and began walking back, catching bits and pieces of the sky through a blanket of trees as he walked.
He kept walking along, watching as the branches off the trees danced in the wind. It was almost as if the gentler part of Wind Sorceress Kagura was using her magical fan to make the winds dance. They'd all known for awhile that Kagura wasn't all bad; she was just like the rest of them. She like the beautiful serenity of nature, just as much as he did. He smiled. 'One day, after we beat Naraku, I'm going to have a nice long chat with Kagura, and treat her as she should be treated. Like a person."
She could hardly breathe. Her hands were laid out and her ankle stung badly. She could feel the dirt all over her, and she was wheezing just to get some air. "I can't... move..." Kagome tried getting up but her body collapsed as she weakly screamed.
"This is all Inuyasha's fault!"
Kagura had confessed to them, on a night when Naraku was building his strength up, and wouldn't notice her gone. She'd told them all how she wasn't bad, and was controlled by Naraku. He knew in his heart he wouldn't have believed her then and there, but she started crying and he knew those were real tears. He could smell all the sorrow coming from her. Now, InuYasha thought of her as just another person that Naraku had wronged. And if he could, he'd play matchmaker for his brother with Kagura, no matter how much he hated Sesshomaru. Perhaps they could get along on speaking terms again, like fifty years ago.
He smiled. 'Oh and we mustn't forget Miroku and Sango. They also belong together.' he thought to himself.
All of a sudden he tripped yet again and went sprawling. "WHO THE FUCK KEEPS THROWING THIS SHIT IN FRONT OF ME!"
He was practicing clenching and unclenching his fists, with a look on his face that plainly showed he wanted to rip someone's head off. "YOU WANNA FIGHT SHIPPO, HUH? YOU WANNA GET EVEN BECAUSE OF OUR FIGHT, HUH? WELL I'LL KILL YOU! YOU HEAR ME? KILL YOU!"
He was growling and he was on his feet again, eye searching from tree to tree, trying to see who threw what in his path.
That's when he looked down and realized what he had tripped over.
It was a really big bag. And it happened that no one else in the Feudal Era had one just like it. No one except... "KAGOME!"
Kagome grasped the tree branch beside her, trying to get herself up from the cold, damp, ground. Her bag was nowhere in sight, only her studies books were all scuffed up around her.
"Damn if Inuyasha stayed where he was I would have been fine..." She wined gathering all the strength she had to lift herself up, but she felt her one leg numb and definitely sprained.
She cried, trying to pull herself up the hill stubbornly. "I need to find Inuyasha..." She cried grasping the other tree branches and feeling the ground slip underneath her. She went sprawling back grasping whatever she could find, and felt her roll and smack on her back helplessly screaming. "Inuyasha!"
"That's Kagome's voice!" He yelled and dashed off in the direction he'd heard her screaming from. "KAGOME!"
Inu Kaiba: A whole chapter about as long as at least three or four Demon Mauvais chapters. I think Amnesiac will definitely be much better than Demon Mauvais. And much longer too. And as always with me or Roxyfoxy… We start the story off and it's not got an ounce of what the summary claims.But we all love the story anyways. Well I hope to update soon
Roxyfoxy: Well I enjoyed writing this fanfic so far. I hope you guys enjoy reading it. Please R+R
