So here are my answers to the reviews in chapter one:

"Well no use spending time on it now. If we're going to get anything done we'll need rest," Miroku said. Everyone nodded in agreement and went to their se4eparate areas around the tree. Sango, Kagome, Shippo, and Kirara slept close to each other and the fire. Inu-yasha slept in the lowest branch of the closest tree and Miroku slept under leaning against the tree. Morais slept in a tree that was little bit away from the others and choose a branch that was well concealed by the leaves.
The first to wake up was Kagome. Then Shippo, Miroku, Sango, and last Kirara. Inu-yasha and Morais didn't wake up till the afternoon. They were going at a slow pace so the others allowed the two sleepy demons get in some extra hours of sleep. After all they weren't in a hurry. Kagome made breakfast and later lunch. Miroku went to hunt for some meat and came back with several small, silver fish. Sango, Shippo, and Kirara went to get wood and came back victorious. That's how the day went slow and steady, but you know as they say it gets hotter when the sun goes down.
The sun was balancing on the edge of the world. Everyone was sitting around a nice warm fire.
"Hey I'm going to take a nice hot bath. Who wants to come," Kagome asked standing up.
"Me!" exclaimed Sango and Morais.
"Which way Inu-yasha?" Inu-yasha pointed directly behind him, "Thankies, now let's go." With that the four girls skipped gingerly in the direction Inu-yasha directed them. About five minutes later they arrived. They stopped and sucked in some of the warm steam coming from the natural wonder. Kagome was the first to enter the water. Next Morais and last, but not least Sango slipped into the water.
"Hey," Morais said.
"Yeah," Kagome and Sango said at the same time.
"Is, um, Inu-yasha seeing anyone?" Kagome twiddled her fingers and pondered on how she would answer. Did Inu-yasha think of their relationship like that? Did she think of the relationship like that? Sure Inu-yasha is a great guy and yes she did love him, but, as many other relationships, the question was not if she loved him, but if she was in love with him.
"I really don't know," Kagome finally answered. "What do you think Sango?"
"Well," Sango took a second to think, "It's really confusing. I'm sure Inu-yasha has great feelings for you. Especially love, but what kind of love. The love of a brother, the love of a husband, or the love of a lover. That'd be lust. How do you feel about Inu-yasha?"
"I'm not sure and that's the problem. If I was sure I love Inu-yasha like that I would have confronted him already. Sure I can be patient, but at this age I'm just not willing to wait. I would need to know what his answer would be. If he feels the same we might consider going steady. I not I'd give up and stop wasting my time."
"I completely understand," Sango said back.
"So, what's your answer," Morais said. She was getting impatient and the thought that Inu-yasha and Kagome might have something together irritated her.
"You'd have to ask Inu-yasha," Kagome answered. "Oh, wait, we forgot to tell her about Kikyo."
"Who's Kikyo?"
"You don't want to know," answered Sango.
"What she means is that with Kikyo there comes a lot of complications. You see Kikyo was the protector of the Shikon no Tama. Have you heard of it?"
"Yeah, my dad told me stories of it."
"Well, as you probably figured out Inu-yasha is a half demon. He wanted the Shikon no Tama in order to turn full demon and of course he ran into Kikyo. I guess love just sprang or something like that. Then along comes Naraku. He wants the Shikon no Tama, too. He's only a half demon."
"What," Morais exclaimed.
"Yeah, he's only a half demon. Anyways, He tricked Inu-yasha and Kikyo into betraying each other. Kikyo pinned Inu-yasha to a tree and put a spell on him. Kikyo died in the end and the Shikon no Tama went with her. All that happened fifty years ago. I found Inu-yasha and broke the spell. It seems that I'm the reincarnation of Kikyo and the Shikon no Tama was in me. I unfortunately broke the Shikon no Tama. Now I'm kinda obligated to fix it. Kikyo was resurrected and now we don't know were she is, but I'm almost positive that Inu-yasha still has a thing for Kikyo."
"Oh, well I'm going to go back to camp now," said Morais.
"Yeah, my too," said Sango. "Are you coming Kagome?"
"In a bit." The two girls dried off using the towels Kagome brought. After they were done changed back into their clothes and walked back towards camp.
"Who does Inu-yasha love," Kagome asked herself. She closed her eyes and dipped her head under the water.
