Long Lost Love
Chapter 3
Stranded
"Why did...um...Why did you, " Inuyasha rubbed the back of his neck. He wasn't the type to studder in what he was saying, "Why did-"
"Why did I what, Inuyasha?" Kagome asked knowing what he was going to say, "Why did I forget my promise to you, and date Hojo? Is that what you were going to say?"
He simply shook his head, "I was just going to say why did you storm off like that...but thats a good question too."
Kagome mentaly knocked herself in the head. She never wanted to talk to Inuyasha about this, and here she was bringing it upon herself. She sighed deep, "Inuyasha what did you want me to do for six years?"
"I told you I'd come back to you, Kagome, " Inuyasha said to her, "Why didn't you listen? Why did you believe me?"
"I was supposed to wait by the well for you to return for six years!" Kagome exclaimed, "No Inuyasha! Thats just selfish. What would I do if you really did die? Would you want me to wait forever!"
"That isn't wait I said..." Inuyasha sighed looking at the ground, "I figured as much. The reason it took so long for me to come see you was mainly because of the damages on my body...not to mention my brain. Naraku completely totaled me before...Shippou came to my rescue."
Kagome couldn't help but smile at Inuyasha's reaction to what he just said. He sighed then continued, "It turns out he hit some kind of...nerve in my body and I couldn't walk for 3 years. Once Naraku was dead Kikyo sacrifist her body to heal me, while Kaede did the same with her sacred blood. It took another 3 years for me to heal completely."
"What do you want me to do, Inuyasha?" Kagome asked, "Just tell Hojo I'm leaving him so I can go with you? I'd look like a common sult!"
Inuyasha grinned, "Well you'd be my common sult."
"SIT BOY!"
"Agh!"
Inuyasha pulled his head from the ground, "It was a joke, Kagome!"
"Well it wasn't a good one!" Kagome challenged.
It was quiet for a while, if you ignored Inuyasha's groans while rubbing his sore head, "So what are you gonna do, Kagome?"
"Inuyasha...why didn't you find somebody else?" Kagome asked finally; a question that was building up inside of her, "Why me Inuyasha? You should of been able to find a new girlfriend, right? So why me?" Kagome would of kept on talking, but she felt arms go around her.
"I love you Kagome..." Inuyasha said holding her close to him, "I've never loved anybody as much as I love you...why can't you see that?"
"Inu..." She whispered wanting to hold him back but it wouldn't be right. She had Hojo, not Inuyasha, "There isn't anything I can do about it."
Inuyasha held the girl closer to him, "Yes there is. You can dump him, and come back with me. You know you want to Kagome..." He kissed her neck, "Do it for me...more importantly do it for yourself. I love you Kagome...I really do."
Of course Kagome loved him as well, but what about Hojo. She couldn't just curse him out, leave, then return saying she didn't want to be with him anymore. It would make her look like a sult, and thats not what she wanted, "Inuyasha...I...I can't."
Inuyasha sighed, "Well, I'm not going to push you do to do what you don't want to...but promise me you'll give it some thought okay?"
"Yo! Inuyasha!"
He let go of Kagome for the time being, "Shippou?"
"A demon has captured Mayumi!" Shippou said panting once he reached them, "And it ate my sword!"
Inuyasha cracked his knuckles, "Damn, what did you have it on the floor or something? What about Sango, or Miroku?"
Shippou grabbed him by the collar, "They're off making out someplace, just help Mayumi please!" He threw Inuyasha towards the demon he was talking about.
Kagome ran towards the demon, 'Wow Shippou's really powerful now...I wonder why he can't beat the demon by himself.'
Running towards the demon, Inuyasha jumped into the air, extending his claws to their full fighting potential. He slashed the monster's arm off, and Mayumi fell safely into Shippou's arms. Inuyasha shook the blood from his hand, "What are you talking
about Shippou! You could of taken that demon easily!"
The demon fell to the ground, then died of blood loss. Shippou smirked, "Yeah, I just wanted to see how fast a weakling like you could kill it." He kissed Mayumi on the cheek, then walked off.
Inuyasha growled, "If he wasn't the strongest being in Japan, I'd hurt him so bad!" He stopped walking when Kagome started laughing, "What are you laughing about Kagome?"
Kagome walked over to Inuyasha and hugged him, "Your just like how I remembered you Inuyasha."
Miroku, and Sango could be seen walking from their secret spot a few feet away. The two were smiling from ear to ear as they approached Inuyasha and Kagome.
"Hello, Kagome...Inuyasha." Miroku and Sango said in unison.
Kagome gasped, "Oh no! I've been here for hours!" She began running towards the well, "I have a class, and I have to make up a lesson plan!"
Shippou, and Inuyasha ran for Kagome, "Hold up!"
She didn't stop. Running so fast, Kagome didn't notice that her jewel shard falling from her pocket. She stupid jumped head-first into the well in such a hurry.
"Ahhhhh!"
Miroku chuckled wrapping a bandage around Kagome's head, "It was very foolish to jump head-first into the well Kagome. Though, one cannot wonder why the transportation did not work."
Shippou rested his head back into his arms, "Isn't that easy? She lost the jewel shard in her frantic rush to get home. Its not brain surgery stupid."
"Well Kagome should of sensed it." Inuyasha said through folded arms, "What she lost her preistess powers?"
There was an akward silence for a while, as everybody took in what Inuyasha said. Sango broke the silence, "You don't think being in a normal world made Kagome lose her powers do you? How is that possible?"
Kagome sighed, "Guys don't worry about it. We can just use a piece of the jewel shard you all have? You did say the only piece missing was mine right?"
Shippou rubbed the back of his neck, "We had Kaede die off wth it. Its in her grave in some unknown place. Her dying words were to burry the Shikon No Tama with her body in an unknown area so demons couldn't tourture us with its knowledge. And besides, nobody could touch it due to that spell."
Those words rang through Kagome's head like bells. She lost her microscopic piece of the jewel, and their wasn't anyway to get back to her own time without it.
Kagome stood up and walked out of the hut they were in, "Not to panic. I'll just lose my job, and have my boyfriend wait an iternity for me to return. No worries...I can...I can handle this."
Inuyasha increased the grip on his fists. He shoved his hands into his pockets, then approached the shocked girl, "You okay, Kagome?"
"No, I'm not." She answered honestly, "I'm not okay Inuyasha. Now if you don't mind, I just want to be alone." She walked even further down the forest tracks.
Inuyasha sighed to himself muttering a few words to himself, "I'm not giving Kagome her Jewel shard back until she loves me again..." He said angrily, "Damn that Hojo...Damn him to hell."
He turned in the direction Kagome ran off to, "You will be mine Kagome. I lost Kikyo, and I'm not losing you. Just remember that..."
