Chapter 1

"Hey Sango please tell Inuyasha I'm going for a walk when he comes back. I think he went with Miroku to great some herbs from the village. They should being coming back soon" Kagome informed the demon slayer.

"Whatever. Just don't be too long or Inuyasha is going to have a fit" Sango said.

"Yeah, I know but I just hope he won't start arguing with me" Kagome said while walking out of the hut.

Kagome walked down the path when she spotted Kikyo's soul collectors going into the woods. Kagome quickly caught up to them and followed them deep inside the woods. She then saw Kikyo resting on a tree branch not to far down from the ground. The soul collectors gave Kikyo the souls and every time one went in she glowed. After that Kikyo noticed Kagome behind a tree watching her. Kikyo signed and then came down from her branch. She slowly walked over to the tree where Kagome hid. Kagome came out of hiding already knowing she was already discovered.

"Why must you hide from me? You have nothing to fear" Kikyo asked and reassured Kagome.

"We've already discussed why before and you tried to kill me. Of course I have something to fear when I'm around you. She said the same thing last time we met" Kagome thought about their last encounter.

"Something the matter? Did you and Inuyasha get into another fight or something?" Kikyo full of concern. (Yeah right…)

"No, no, we didn't, it's just…" Kagome was interrupted by Kikyo. "What is it?" Kagome wondered. "Huh? There's a demonic aura near here? But I didn't sense anything before." Kagome was very confused.

"That's because it just arrived. It must of sensed Inuyasha's powers and hid its self for a while hoping he would go away" Kikyo explained.

"Huh..? You lost me with the whole explanation. Why would the demon be scared of Inuyasha? Every demon has the nerve to take on any demon even Inuyasha because he's hanyu. I know a lot of demons even weak ones that dared to try to kill Inuyasha" Kagome still confused. "Ah! there's demons all around us! I didn't even bring my arrows. Kikyo help me" Kagome freaked out.

"Why should I? Give me one good reason why I should save a living soul when I hate the living" Kikyo said emotionless.

"Why Kikyo?" Kagome's voice started to become soft and loud with fear. "You're supposed to be a nice miko. And how could you turn on your own reincarnation.

"So, what if you're my reincarnation. The only reason you are a live is because I died from that bastard Naraku. Now I have to live on souls of dead women. Thanks to Naraku I was killed and then resurrected and my heart urns for something. I have know idea why my heart urns for and I'm not free to hate or love anymore" Tears began to run down Kikyo's pale face.

"Kikyo…I'm sorry" Kagome sweet talked her.

"I don't need your compassion Kagome. I don't need your care nesses or anyone else's" Kikyo's face was full of tears still.

Inuyasha came from the tree tops and killed all demons that were surrounding them. Inuyasha landed gracefully to meet the ground. He was shocked to the two together and seeing Kagome was still alive. He first turned to Kikyo with silence and then looked at Kagome.

"Lets go Kagome the others are waiting" Inuyasha spoke quietly. "Kikyo what brings you here in these parts?" Inuyasha suspiciously asked.

"Inuyasha so caring and considerate" Kikyo smirked.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Inuyasha questioned. "I'm not looking for a fight with you" the hanyu decided.

"Humm, I love it when you get mad and how you just worry about my well being" Kikyo starred into the hanyu's amber eyes. "Kagome, why do you tend to come here? There is no reason why you should come to this era. Why don't you just go back to your own time and stay there" Kikyo smirked at her reincarnation.

"Hey, I don't see you helping Inuyasha gather the jewel shards" Kagome yelled at the miko. "Well, she has a good reason why. It's my fault that the sacred jewel shattered into the same fragments that they are today" Kagome mumbled to herself.

"You're the one to blame! You were the one who made the jewel exist. Am I right or not?" The resurrected miko shouted in question. "Inuyasha is a fool to stay with a girl that does nothing but get herself into trouble. It seems to me when ever I bump into you guys she's always getting saved by you or getting in the way" Kikyo concluded.
