Chapter 8
History is Revealed a Little at a Time

Miroku got up and put some distance between him and Sango before going to sleep so he wouldn't get slapped in the morning. Sango rolled on her side, closed her eyes and let her dreams sweep her away from reality. 'Sango, I love you.' Miroku thought.

'I better go and check on the girl.' Sesshomaru got up from his cherry oak desk, where he was reviewing historical documents looking for clues about the pendant. He gracefully walked to the room Kagome was staying in.

Kagome spun on her heel to walk out the door only to face the great demon lord. "Um.....hello." Kagome squeaked. "Your appearance certainly has improved." Sesshomaru said while looking over her newly transformed body. Kagome fidgeted not liking being under his observing eyes.
"You no longer smell like a human." Sesshomaru moved closer to her and inhaled her scent. "You will tell me why." "I wish I knew myself." Kagome answered. "Well you will tell me where you came from then." he stated. "From...from...from the future." she was starting to get nervous. He was getting really close to her and his claws looked like little, sharpened daggers that he could easily shred her to pieces with. 'How could someone so... handsome be so dangerous? Did I just think that he's handsome?! I'm losing my mind.' she thought.

"How did you get here?" he questioned. "Through an old well in the middle of a clearing where the God Tree is in Inuyasha's forest." she replied. 'I remember faintly a story that involved the royal family of the Eastern lands and that well.' Sesshomaru thought. He turned around and headed back to his study and pulled an book bound in green leather with gold leafing off his cherry oak bookcase. The book was titled: The Tragic History of the Eastern Royalty Line.

The next morning Sango made a breakfast of Ramen for everyone. "Hurry up! We need to rescue Kagome from Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha hurried Sango and Miroku along. Sango and Miroku ate as fast as they could and then quickly broke down and packed their temporary camp. "Lets go now!" Inuyasha huffed. "We're going as fast as we can Inuyasha!" Sango said, aggravation lacing her words.

Nobody knew what Inuyasha was thinking at that moment. For one minute he was following Kikyo around and pushing Kagome away. The next minute he acted as if he couldn't care less about Kikyo and goes to rescue Kagome.

As the sun started to go down the group met up with Kikyo. "Hello Inuyasha dear." Kikyo said. "Kikyo" Inuyasha hissed. Kikyo made her way over to Inuyasha slowly. "What's wrong dear?" Kikyo asked as sweetly as she could.

"This can't be good." Miroku spoke what was on both his and Sango's mind. They both watched as Kikyo made her way over to Inuyasha slowly and as Inuyasha's temper began to rise.

A growl arose in Inuyasha's throat. "No Kikyo, I don't want you here." Inuyasha looked at Kikyo his eyes full of hatred and anger. "Fine" Kikyo walked backwards back into the forest slowly. "Have it your way. Go chase after my reincarnation." She then disappeared into the black forest completely.
