Kagome seemed to walk further in the forest. It had been hours and there was no sign of InuYasha.

"InuYasha!"Kagome called out once more."Argh! Where could that hanyou be? You'd figure if he sniffed me out by now!"she said.

She walked a little further and then leaned on a boulder. Her feet were aching so much from all that walking.

"I'm so soar. I could really use a bath right now,"she said rubbing her feet.

It seemed that the heaven's answered Kagome's call. The air around her seemed to get thick and misty.

"What the?"

Kagome climbed onto the rock and looked from where the mist was coming from. Infront of her there was a hot spring that was surrounded by big boulders.

"Arigatou, Kami-sama!"Kagome said happily.

Kagome had undressed herself and stepped into the hot spring. She sighed in relaxation as she sat down.

She washed herself down not noticing a pair of wolf eyes spying her.

Kagome felt a prescence around her and was startled from hearing a rattle in the bushes.

Kagome covered herself with a towel and stood up reaching to her bow and arrow.

"Who's there!"she asked courageously. Suddenly out of the blue a twister had formed and zoomed infront of her on the ground.

The twister dissapeared and there was none other than Koga. He looked the same except his hair was longer, but it was still tied up in a pony tail.

"K-Koga!"Kagome shrieked.

"Long time, no see, Kagome,"Koga smirked.

"How could you still run like that without the jewel shards?"Kagome asked.

"Training! and It only took a year. It seemed that I didn't need those jewel shards anyway,"Koga stated. Kagome just stood there blushing noticing that she was only in a towel.

After she had dressed she walked over to Koga who watched her come towards him.

"So what have you been doing this past year?"Koga asked.

"Oh uhh the usual,"Kagome smiled nervously.

"Where's that mutt of yours? I haven't seen him for a few weeks,"Koga asked looking around.

"Thats what I've been-Wait? You've seen InuYahsa? Where!"Kagome asked.

"I was hunting for food until I spotted him slaying a demon not far..."

Flashback:

"Heh. Hey mutt!"Koga yelled out. InuYasha sheethed his sword and looked at Koga.

"What do you want?"he asked in his rudish tone.

"Where's Kagome? Shouldn't she be with you?"Koga asked. InuYasha faced his back to Koga.

"She's not with me...anymore. She went back home,"InuYasha replied. Koga was in a state of confusion.

"What! What do you-"

Koga cut himself as he watched InuYasha run into the forest.

End of Flashback

"Was he still in his half demon form?"Kagome asked clenching her hand. Koga looked at her and nodded. Kagome's eyes widened.

"Why? What's been going on with you two lately?"Koga asked.

"InuYasha...kicked me out of his life. So I just went back home."Kagome lowered her head. Koga looked at the hurt Kagome.

"Kagome, you could of just come to me,"Koga said. Kagome looked at him.

"It's fine. I'm..okay,"Kagome said.

Koga walked closer to Kagome and pulled her into an embrace hugging his arms around her waist.

"Does this mean I have a chance?"Koga said. He lowered his head to Kagome as his lips captured hers.

Kagome's eyes stayed open as Koga's eyes were shut.

Koga parted his lips from hers. She didn't respond back and he didn't feel any compassion from her. She didn't have feelings for him still.

"Your heart's still set on the mutt?"Koga asked. Kagome lowered her head.

"I'm sorry,"she said as she pushed back from Koga's arms.

Suddenly the two heard a sound coming from behind them. Koga shielded Kagome protecting her.

"Who's there!"Koga demanded. Kagome looked over Koga's shoulder and swore that she saw white dog ears.

InuYasha!

Kagome watched as she heard the stranger run away. Kagome ran into the forest trying to find out who it was.

How do I get his-THATS IT!

"INUYASHA! SIT!" Kagome heard a thud and smiled.

It's him! she smiled so widely.

"InuYashaahh!"Kagome yelled as she tripped over a root from a tree and fell to the ground. Kagome got up quickly, but fell backwards feeling pain coming from her right ankle.

"I got ya, Kagome!"Koga said as he caught her. Kagome looked ahead of her and noticed that the spell had broken and InuYasha was off!

"InuYashaaa!"Kagome yelled at him, but he didn't turn back.
