Last time...
Inuyasha looked from Sango to Keade and back. 'Was she scared of me? When she looked at me I saw that fear Sango was talking about but it had a mix of sadness. Oh Kagome was your dream about me?' "What can we do?""I don't think there's anything we can do but hope" Miroku said.
"What happens if she doesn't get her memories back soon?" Shippo asked.
Keade sighed, "People will take advantage of her, that demon ye smelt before Inuyasha probably knows Kagome doesn't have her memories; he could get her to "join him." We will have to be careful and keep and eye on her"
"No you wont" Came a voice from outside the hut. They all turned their heads to see...
This Time...
...Kagome, "You wont have to worry about me, I can take care of myself." She said.
"Kagome, did you hear that?" Sango questioned.
She nodded as she sat down facing everybody. A little kitsune jumped into her arms, "So it's true? I am reborn but cant remember my past?" she asked the group.
They all started at her and nodded in unison except Miroku. He seemed deep in thought, "Kagome, you asked us is it true. Dose that mean you knew before?"
"Yeah." She paused for a moment, "Can I get my memories back?"
Baba joined in the conversation, "I child ye can. I brought ye here hoping ye memories would return to ye."
"So all my dreams are..."
"Your memories" Kagome looked over to see who spoke and meet eyes with Inuyasha, "You were..."
"I know," Kagome said. "I was human in my past life as well as a Miko."
Everyone was shocked at how much she knew, "Kagome how do you know so much of your past life. Did you memories return to you?" Sango asked.
She shook her head, "No not yet, Naraku told me"
"WHAT!" they all shouted.
"But Naraku's dead, you killed him Inuyasha, right?" Sango asked.
"I'm sure I did, but then again Naraku was powerful. He may have found a way to continue to live.
"But why wouldn't he attack us for the jewel?"
"Jewel? What jewel?" Kagome asked confused.
"Maybe he got away but needed to recover from my swords attack. I mean Tedsuiga (sp?) is very powerful." Inuyasha said proudly.
"Knowing Naraku it wouldn't take him 10 years to recover even from that attack." Miroku answered.
"Well maybe he's not after the 'jewel' anymore. Maybe he's after something else."
Miroku nodded, "Yes, we've been looking for the jewel for years seeing as it disappeared after Kagome's death."
Kagome gave a questioning glance. "Okay mind telling me what this jewel is?"
Sango looked up and nodded beginning the tale of the jewel. "The Shikon jewel originated from my village. It was a powerful jewel that could give you one wish. Demon's and human's alike wanted the jewel to become more powerful. Even half demon's wanted it to become a full demon." She looked over at Inuyasha.
Kagome followed Sango's eye and stared at Inuyasha, "You wanted to become a full demon? I wonder why that sounds familiar."
They all stared at her while Miroku continued, "Well you came through the well as you probably already know and meet Inuyasha. He was pinned to a tree by the former miko Kikyo."
Kagome nodded taking as much information as she possibly could. "Alright and the jewel shattered and there was a fight right?"
"Yes and no more like a war. When the final battle came we defeated Naraku but you died in the prose's."
Kagome nodded "Alright but wear's the jewel now?"
Miroku sighed, "No one knows. After you death is just, disappeared."
Kagome stared and looked at the ground. "I'm sorry,"
Sango answered, "It's not your fault Kagome."
She shook her head tear's reaching her eyes, "Not that but It's just hard to believe, I just don't believe you guys or Naraku I just don't know anymore." She stood up and walked out of the hut. They all followed her and sighed. Inuyasha then stood up following Kagome.
Kagome was just outside the hut and Inuyasha sat down beside her. "This seat taken?" She shook her head. He sighed, "When did Naraku tell you?"
She continued to stare into the forest as she answered, "In my dreams."
He looked at her, "What did he say?"
"He was warning me."
"Of what?"
"Nothing, it's nothing to worry about."
"It doesn't sound like nothing. Kagome if there's something wrong tell me please, I want to help you. Your one of my best friends, you showed me friendship and that there's more to like then being the strongest or the best and, I want to help you in anyway I can." Inuyasha said looking down on the ground while grabbing her hand."
She jumped a bit when the words repeated in her head. 'Choose choose, choose' Kagome's bangs shield her eyes. Inuyasha looked at her as she moved her gaze from the ground to him. Her hazel eyes were glazed with tears as she stared at him. She rubbed her eyes trying not to cry. Inuyasha looked at her with concern. He knew whatever Naraku warned her about wasn't good. He wanted to ask again but was cut off when a scent hit his nose. He stood up and put his hand on his sword right when Miroku and Sango came out.
Miroku looked around, "I feel a dark presence." Sango nosed in agreement. "But who is it?"
Inuyasha sniffed again and growled, "Sesshomaru!" Everyone jumped, "He's probably back for Tedsuiga" He walk towards the forest with Sango and Miroku following close behind with Kagome and Shippou behind them. She stayed quit while they walked through the forest. When they reached their destination Kagome saw Sesshomaru with his companion Jaken and a young human girl. She looked about 17 years old and Kagome thought she looked familiar. She then remembered in one of her drams with Sesshomaru in it. There was a little girl with him. 'Rin that was her name, she's certainly grew. I wonder if there mates.'
"Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha yelled, "Back for Tedsuiga I see"Sesshomaru smirked, "Maybe I am" He then raised his claw hand running with his demon speed towards Inuyasha. Inuyasha quickly unsheathed Tedsuiga to block. The two brothers stared at each other. 'Why isn't he using his sword? And why dose he still was Tedsuiga? He has a powerful sword already' Inuyasha then looked over Sesshomaru's shoulder at Rin. He then smirked as they both jumped back, "So that's why so still want my sword, for that little human girl Rin. She needs a powerful sword to protect herself when you not able to. Totosai wont make you one so instead you decided to take mine. Is the incident that happened at Naraku's castle 10 years ago to Rin? When Naraku almost killed her while you were busy fighting Kagura?" Inuyasha expected a growl but didn't hear instead he heard his brother laugh. He attacked Inuyasha again, with Inuyasha once again blocking it.
"Your more then a fool then I thought little brother. I'm not hear for the sword this time" He then kicked Inuyasha in the gut and sent him flying into a tree. He looked straight at Kagome, "I'm here to clean up some garbage." Inuyasha hit the tree opening one eye, 'He's not here for the sword he's here for...' "KAGOME!"
Sesshomaru was suddenly was right in front of Kagome. She took a step back but he stopped her as he grabbed her by the neck. She put her hands on his arm trying to get him to let go. He smirked at her efforts, "So you came back Kagome, as a hanyou I see." She looked at him with one eye open, she opened her mouth but nothing came out. Inuyasha stood up from his spot, leaning on the tree. "Sesshomaru! Leave her alone!"
He laughed, "Oh, I don't think so. She was powerful as a mere human girl; she's even more powerful then before. Se has demon strength and Miko powers. With her not remembering her past anyone can take advantage of her forcing her to destroy the world or something." He tightened his grip on her. She opened her mouth again to scream but nothing came out.
"Kagome knows about herself. She may not remember but she knows who to trust and not to trust." He watched as his brother's hand began to grow with poison, "No Sesshomaru don't kill her!" Kagome's neck began to glow the same colour. He saw that her grip was loosening around his brother's arm. "Naraku told her about her past, she knows he's her enemy!"
Sesshomaru froze, dropping Kagome. She collapsed on the ground breathing hard. Sango and Miroku rushed to her side aiding her in any way they can. The glow on her neck slowly disappeared, as she lay on the ground motionless. Inuyasha clutched his fists and growled, "Sesshomaru!"
"Don't worry little brother, she's not dead." He paused for a moment, "Are you saying that Naraku is still alive?"
Inuyasha continued to growl, "Were not sure"
Sesshomaru looked down at the motionless Kagome, "This girl is probably the only one who can fight him and have a chance. You better get her memories back soon or else there will be trouble." He turned around and left with Rin and Jaken close behind.
Inuyasha watched as his brother left. When he was sure he was gone he ran to Kagome's aid. "Kagome, Kagome, say something!" He picked her up as her eyes began to flutter open. "Kagome" he said breathing a sigh of relief. She stared up at him at him with a confused look. She was un aware of what was going on. He smiled down at her as she gave a weak smile back. He stood up with her still in his arms walking through the forest looking at her threw the corner of his eye every moment her got. He noticed that she was avoiding his eye, looking back at his friends he motioned them to go on ahead. They nodded understanding him and walked in another direction.
Sango walked though the forest holding Miroku's hand, "Miroku, what's going to happen with Kagome?" She asked.
He shook his head, "I don't know, hopefully she will regain her memories in time."
She looked up at him with worried eyes, "In time for what Miroku, You don't think Naraku's still alive do you?"
Miroku sighed and nodded, "Yes I do believe that he's still alive, it's odd how I think it's true but Kagome's dreams have been real. Things that actually happened and things that may happen as well."
"But her dream have shown things that already happened,"
He nodded, "Yes but has Naraku talking to her alone ever happen? Has him warning her of something ever happened?" Sango shook her head. Miroku squeezed her hand, "I'm sure everything will be fine."
She shook her head in frustration, "No everything's not going to be alright! He killed my family Miroku my brother is gone because of him, all I have is you and Miko and I am not willing to give you up." Tears pricked at her eyes and she blinked trying to get rid of them.
Miroku stared into his wife's worried eyes and held her close to him kissing her forehead. "I promise Sango that I won't let anything happen to you, or Miko, I promise."
Kagome noticed Sango and Miroku leaving and she looked up at Inuyasha with a puzzled look. Inuyasha felt eyes on him without looking he continued to walk. Once he looked down she turned her head away quickly. He frowned; he didn't like Kagome avoiding him. He sighed stopping and putting her down against a tree. She winced, "Sorry" He said.
She shook her head signaling it was all right.
He nodded looking into the forest as the sun began to set. They staid silent for a moment when he broke the silence with something that has been bothering him for the last little while. "What Naraku told you." He began without looking at her, "It's bothering you isn't it?" He turned his head to face her watching her eyes move from side to side as if she was un sure of what to say. HE continued to watch her for any signs of emotion and found it; sadness. "Kagome?"
She finally had the courage to look him straight in the eye as her eyes began watering. One signal tear flew down her cheek as she turned her gaze to the ground. Inuyasha put his hand under her chin bring her tear stained face to face him. He wiped her tears with his thumb as she tried to blink back the tears. "I...I don't want to talk about it." She finally said.
He sighed, "Dose it have something to do with me?" He asked removing his hand. She stared at him hesitating but answered, "N...no"
He knew she was lying he could see it in her eyes. He wanted to know what the hell Naraku told her and what it had to do with him but knew not to push it, especially with Kagome. He looked out to the sun to see it was almost completely gone, "How are your wounds?"
"It's getting better. It doesn't hurt as much as before."
He nodded as he picked her up again, "Keade and Baba will give you some herbs. It should be healed sometime tonight" He then began walking to the hut.
They finally reached the hut, laying her down he nodded at Keade. She nodded back, "Miroku and Sango told us what happened to young Kagome." Inuyasha sighed walking to the corner of the hut hearing a happy grown up kitsune run in. "Kagome! Are you alright?!"
She nodded as she watched Keade get some water and herbs. She knelt down by Kagome and began to bandage her wound with Baba to assist her. Once they finished nursing Kagome Keade cleared her throat before speaking. "It's healing just find Kagome. I wouldn't be surprised if it heals before night fall." Kagome nodded slowly showing she understood. Keade handed her a bowel of food, "Have something to eat child. It will help."
Kagome thanked the wise old women, then turning her head to face the door. She had that same feeling as before. Like someone she knew and cared for needed her. She shivered at the feeling.
Inuyasha noticed this, "Kagome, you cold?"
She was about to answer when Sango and Miroku came into the hut with Miko, "How you feeling Kagome?" Sango asked right away walking over to her.
She smiled, "I feel a lot better thank you"
Sango nodded watching Miroku sitting around the fire beside her remembering there conversation when they separated with their friends and before picking up Miko from his friends house.
They all sat around the fire talking about Naraku and what they think is going on. Kagome only half listen to the conversation seeing as she was lost in her own thoughts. 'I don't love Inuyasha; I just care for him as a friend. Mike, I love him and don't want him to die, but then again I don't want Inuyasha to die either.' She shook her head in frustration. 'I cant think about this right now'
Inuyasha noticed her frustration and knew exactly what she was frustrated about. He was frustrated about it to but didn't say anything. He knew Naraku told her something about him he just didn't know what it was.
Miroku and Sango continued to talk to Keade when a scent hit her nose. She sniffed a couple of times. At first she thought it was a demon but then it quickly changed to human blood. She recognized it right away her eyes widening, her mouth dropped in shock. Inuyasha Sango and Miroku noticed this when the same scent hit Inuyasha's nose. He also smelt the demon first but then the human blood. "Kagome?" He asked.
A/N: Hey all. That's it, it's about half the chapter well half of what I wrote so far at least. SO SORRY it took so long to update. The next chapter may take a little longer because I have to catch up with my writing on that story but yea at least I updated right? Actullly when I wrote this chapter i didn't put any Sango/Miroku in it but i decided to put it in because the story needs it. Songs of twisted fate will be updated soon as well. I started it and it took a while because I couldn't find the lyrics to the song I needed for Kikyo vs. Kagome but a friend helped me out. But in that chapter there will be two songs not one so Kawwai said she wanted to do the other one so she's going to type it. In other words, that would mean it may take a while. I know lone authors note at the end BUT if you read my other Author's note's you'll know I'll be writing another story. I know I have a lot already but it's just, I've been waiting to long to write this but I'll need my reviewers help.
Okay so the story is in the modern time and Kagome is a singer BUT know one will know her real name for a reason you will find out soon. But I need help in thinking of one. So it would be like a nick name that singer's have. (Well actually the bands have but whatever) I was thinking Stargurl but I just don't think its right for Kagome. Unless you guys approve of chores. Please send in your suggestion's or if you like the name Stargurl or not.
PEACE................................SMOCH..............................................LOVE YEA!!!!
