Musume no Shorai – Chapter 10

"See ya tomorrow!" Sachi waved back to the group before Kagome and herself jumped into the well.

"Tomorrow?" Kagome's question faded as they descended from the other's ears.

"Boy Inuyasha, I so do not envy you." Shippo stated flatly. Inuyasha whacked him on the head hard enough to cause a burse.

"If were just biding our time, we should tell the villager's to be on the look out." Sango said, Miroku nodded.

"Natsuko, go inform the villager's to be watchful of anything suspicious." Natsuko nodded and walked back to the village at a quick pace, Minaru fallowing behind her.

"Come on mom, why not?" Sachi wined when they returned to the present.

"Because it's to dangerous, and I said so." Kagome said, climbing up the side of the well.

"So, do you expect me to act like nothing happened, that I didn't just meet my father, or go to the past, or learn that demons actually do exist?" Kagome just ignored Sachi, and walked back to the house.

"Kagome, Sachi!" Sota was the one they found sitting on the couch when they first entered the house.

"Uncle Sota!" Sachi squealed, running over to him and wrapping her arms around him.

"Are you two alright?" Sota asked, prying Sachi off him.

"Were fine Sota." Kagome said. "Why are you here?"

"Mom asked me to come." Sota responded. "Said the two of you had disappeared."

"Where is gram anyway?" Sachi asked looking around.

"Upstairs sleeping." Sota said. "You two have been gone all night."

Kagome blinked slightly. All night? Had it really been that long..

Sachi let out a yawn, stretching.

"Speaking of all night, I'm heading to bed seeing as I didn't get any sleep." Sachi turned and walked to the stairs. "Night.."

"Sachi, we'll talk later." Sachi waved slightly at Kagome's comment before disappearing up the steps.

"Talk..?" Sota looked at Kagome with a confused look. "Did something happen?"

"Nothing happened Sota." Kagome said agitated. "Mind you're own business."

"What happened?" Sota pressed.

"Nothing happened!" Kagome walked towards the kitchen, rubbing her forehead. "I need a cup of coffee.."

"Something happened." Sota said, fallowing her. "You were there for eleven hour's, twenty three minutes, and forty-two seconds, now I want to know what happened."

Kagome turned and looked at Sota, who over the years had brown a bit of a beard, and was now a few inches taller than Kagome.

"You were keeping count?" Kagome asked, confused.

"Mom did." Sota defended. "She told me to keep track when she went to bed, that way we'd know how long you had been missing when we filed a police report."

"Police report?" Kagome was startled. "Why a police report?!"

"Because we had no idea where you two were." Sota told her. "Which brings me back to my first question, what happened?"

Kagome fidgeted with her sleeve. Why was it so hard to tell Sota what happened? Kagome managed to mumble something, but it was so quiet Sota didn't hear her.

"What?"

"Sa-Sachi..." Kagome's voice was cracking, darn it, she didn't want start bawling in front of her little brother over something so foolish. "Sachi found out about.. Inuyasha."

Kagome couldn't hold it back any more, she let out a few short sobs before she lost control over her tears. Sota did the best her could to comfort his sister, hugging to make her feel safe, but it seemed useless.

"All of the villager's are on the look out, and a few have decided to take turn's on watch." Natsuko informed, entering the small hut with Minaru.

"So now all there is left," Shippo sighed. "Is to wait..."

Inuyasha seemed the most on edge of the group, despite the un-caring face he was trying to keep.

"Relax Inuyasha, I'm sure we won't have to wait to long." Miroku said, then an explosion, fallowed by screaming villagers.

"You were saying? Sango sent Miroku her usual 'say anything and I'll cut you down' look.

"Inuyasha!" A feminine voice yelled between fits of maniacal laughter. "Come out and fight me like a real man!"

When the group ran out of the hut, the first thing they saw was a girl, floating in the sky over the village sending energy blasts at anything and everything.

"Give you one guess who..." Shippo said sarcastically as they all looked up at the floating girl.
