A/N: Yea the second chapter is up!

Five years later; February 22, 2005

"I'm tired Myouga" complained a girl with ebony hair tied up into a high bun, and tired filled brown eyes. Dropping down to the floor the girl drew up her legs and rapped her arms around them. "Can't I rest for a little while?"

"No, Kagome we have to continue training you so you can become just as strong as your late sister" answered Myouga. Glancing around the room Myouga calculated how much it would take to repair the wooden floor boards, the wooden walls, the racks for the weapons, and the ceiling which part of it came flying down when Kagome was thrown against it by Myouga's last attack.

"I feel sleepy" Kagome whispered, yawning into her hand and rubbing her eyes with the other. Lowering her head to her knees, Kagome rested her forehead on her silk-covered arms.

"Well you should enjoy training alone while you can, because starting tomorrow you'll be training with another instructor and he won't be as nice as I am" Myouga warned Kagome, turning toward one of the two doors in the dojo. "I'm heading into the main house, do you want some food before you go to sleep?"

Kagome nodded and Myouga exited the dojo to enter the main house. Kagome lifted her head and looked around the dojo. There were swords on one wall. Axes, knives, and arrows on another, as well as two doors one that lead out into the hallway of the main house and the other to a green house with a hot spring that was built into it.

"Well, since there will be yet another annoying man in this dojo I guess that I'll enjoy a nice hot bath in the hot springs before I'm nearly killed again in training" Kagome spoke out loud to no one in particular

Myouga walked back in and spotted Kagome rising from the floor and begin to walk to the door opposite of him. 'Should I tell her? No, then were, would the fun be in that?' Myouga thought to himself. " Hey Kagome!" Myouga yelled, knowing full well that the room would echo.

Kagome winced as the sudden noise left her ears ringing. "Yea?" asked Kagome, turning on her heels to stare at Myouga accusingly.

"Don't you want to meet our new guest?" Myouga asked innocently

"No," Kagome answered automatically "I want to enjoy a nice hot soak in the hot spring surrounded by the beauty of nature while drowning out all of todays dirt and replenishing my aching muscles"

Kagome turned around and entered the green house.

'3 . . . 2 . . . 1' Myouga counted down in his head.

A scream followed by Kagome running out of the bath house with a tomato red face, told Myouga that Kagome saw their new guest.

A man with long silver-white hair, amber eyes and a tan muscular complexion came running out after Kagome, covered in a small white towel that hung around his waist.

"Who the fuck was that girl?" asked the man

"That was Kagome, Inuyasha now hurry up and finish freshening up so Kagome can bathe" Myouga told Inuyasha following Kagome out to the main house.

"Stupid girl" muttered Inuyasha under his breath before he re-entered the green house.

"You seem so weak, I can't believe that you're related to Kikyou" Inuyasha remarked entering the dining room fully clothed in a red horai.

"Well I can't believe that you're a demon-vampire" Kagome told Inuyasha "I thought that all demons were supposed to be ugly, slimy creatures that have a hideous smell and they kidnap virgins because they can't find their own women"

"You shouldn't believe everything that you hear or read about demons" Inuyasha answered taking a seat next to Kagome. "There are some like that and then there are some like me that look human enough to blend in with humans"

"Well if you're as human as you say that you are," Kagome began "then what's with the dog ears on top of your head?"

Inuyasha's little triangle shaped dog ears twitched at her comment causing a squeal to escape Kagome's mouth, followed by a "How cute!"

"I was born with them, so all I have to do is wear a hat and that would not only disguise them but it also blocks out some of the noise from all of that contraptions that are roaming the streets or I could put a spell on myself that would hide my ears and change my hair from white to black and my eyes from amber to violet"

"Those contraptions are cars and trucks" Kagome answered leaning forward to touch Inuyasha's little ears.

A small purr escaped from the back of Inuyasha's throat even though he tried to suppress it. Growling at his weakness Inuyasha barked at Kagome "DON'T TOUCH MY EARS!"

Kagome pulled back quickly and sat down. Glaring at Inuyasha Kagome raised her voice high enough to hurt Inuyasha's sensitive ears. "Well excuse me! All I wanted was to feel them" shifting in her seat she added in a lower voices "It isn't my fault that you get happy when someone rubs your ears"

Angry for her saying that he got all happy every time someone touched his ears and guilt from him screaming at her for his own weakness swirled within him. Cursing under his breath Inuyasha let the subject drop.

After a couple of minutes in silence something hit Inuyasha that he had to notify Kagome of.

"Hey wench, tomorrow we're not going to train in the dojo, we're going out vampire hunting"

Myouga chose that time to come in with trays of food and placed one in front of each of them. Taking a seat next to Inuyasha, Myouga said "Inuyasha I don't think that it's wise. Kagome is inexperience in hunting vampires as of yet and needs to be trained inside the dojo before taking her out to battle something that could cause her to end up like her elder sister"

"This is a great way for her to learn first hand," Inuyasha answered

"Are you sure?" asked Kagome, stuffing a squid into her mouth

Inuyasha glanced at her from the top of his rice bowl. "Of course I'm sure"

"But I might get killed!" protested Kagome slamming her bowl down with such force that the table shook and almost broke in half.

"I'll be there"

"Kidnapped?"

"I'll make sure you don't" Inuyasha assured her.

Kagome looked at Inuyasha with a hard look before she quickly stuffed the last of her food, rose from her chair, took her tray to the kitchen and left Myouga and Inuyasha sitting in the dining room, speechless.

"What's wrong with her?" Inuyasha asked when he was sure that Kagome was out of ear shot range.

"How quickly you forget that her sister was killed by a vampire" Myouga answered, his mouth full of rice.

"Oh yea, well we can't let her fear of death get in the way of her job, right old man?"

Myouga coughed up his squid "Old man? Boy, didn't your parents tell you that you should respect your elders and not call them 'old'?" asked Myouga.

"What 's the difference?" asked Inuyasha while he placed his dishes in the sink and left the room.

"Stupid half demon, doesn't know how to respect his elders" Myouga whispered to himself and continued to eat his dinner.

A dark figure moved from shadow to shadow around the main house. Sliding into one of the bedrooms, the dark figure loomed over the form of a sleeping girl that lay on the bed obviously having nightmares from all of her tossing and turning.

"Kikyou!" yelled the girl sitting up right and startling the person that was crouched over her.

The girl took one glance at the person that loomed over her and then began to scream.

Panicking stricken, hands shot out from the person's side and pressed them over the girl's mouth "Ssshhh" whispered the person.

Realizing that it was a man and assuming the worst the girl shrieked through the intruders hands and began to mumble something that the perpetrator couldn't understand and before he could register what was happening a huge blinding pink light shot him across the room.

'Wow, I guess I was wrong about her being weak' thought the man.

The girl ran across the room and turned on the overhead lights. Blinded for a moment by the suddenly bright lights, Kagome blinked rapidly to adjust her eyes and then narrowed them on the person who broke into her room.

"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked staring in disbelief at Inuyasha who was sprawled on the floor.

"I came to tell you that you got to wake up early tomorrow and then you end up throwing me across the room" Inuyasha complained standing up and dusting himself off.

"Well who told you to come into my room in the middle of the night?" Kagome glanced at her alarm clock that sat on the dresser next to her bed "It's only 1:38 a.m." Kagome commented, "You could have woken me up in the morning"

Inuyasha stood up quietly and just stared at Kagome then he let his eyes wonder around her room that was filled with pink sheets on the bed, a wooden desk in the corner near the window, a small trunk at the end of her bed, a wooden dresser next to her desk and a closet.

"Key" Inuyasha remarked heading toward the door "Just remember that tomorrow we're leaving early"

"If I can even get enough sleep, you know you could have just woken me up in the morning" Kagome remarked before something accord to her "Hey, Inuyasha?"

"Yea" Inuyasha asked walking to the door that had a poster of a boy posted up and small pictures of her friends no doubt. Inuyasha was surprised by the sudden growl that escaped his mouth from seeing the poster of a man on Kagome's door. 'What the hell is wrong with me?' Inuyasha thought

"Why are we leaving at sunrise if vampires don't come out 'til sunset?" Kagome asked staring at Inuyasha questioningly obviously she hadn't notice the growl that came from his throat a short while ago.

'Good,' Inuyasha told himself. 'Don't know why I'm getting jealous of a poster; a poster of all things!' opening the door Inuyasha told Kagome "So we can infiltrate their lairs" with thathe walked out.
