What Happened on the Other Side of the Well (this chapter has been reposted... apperently it had lryics in it and I didnt realize it untill i got a review...thanks for letting me know and I'll be looking through this hole thing and looking for anythng else... thank you to the reviewer who told me this... next time i wont make the mistake again...Sorry)

Kagomes POV

I'm at the well… my brother is also with me… I'm glad… at least I will prove one of us wrong… most likely me…

'Good luck, Kagome.'

I turn to him, 'as long as I have a brother like you I will always have luck.'

'Say hi, to InuYasha for me please.'

'I love you Souta…'

'You have been the greatest sister I could ever ask for…'

We hugged, and with tears down our cheeks we let go and I jumped…

'I love you sister Kagome…' that was the last thing I heard from him…

'Welcome back… Kagome…'

--

'Welcome back… Kagome…' that was the first thing I heard when I went through the time loop.

I can't actually believe that it worked! Souta was right all along, smart kid… and I'm taking some credit for that… now comes the hard part… climbing…. ugh…

It took some time but I made it… I climbed up… and oh my god… there he was… standing no more than two feet away… looking the same… meaning, he didn't go to hell with clay pot, nor did he wish to be a full demon… but why did he never come for me?

'Kagome…'

His voice is still the same… everything is the same…

He came over and pulled me up… 'InuYasha…'

This has got to be a dream… I must be sleeping… and I don't want to wake up…. I'm afraid that this will all be a dream after all…

--

well its not… after we stood and stared at each other for what seemed like hours he finally spoke.

'Kagome?'

I nodded; I think my new appearance has shocked him… well I'm not the same girl you used to know…

'you… came back…'

'I did…'

'how?'

'Souta… he made me… why didn't you come for me?'

'it wouldn't allow me…'

'but I could hear you… we had a talk remember…'

'you ran away when I asked you to come back…'

'I didn't want to understand how us being able to talk was possible…'

'you've changed these past years… how are you?'

'I've changed… like you can see… I've changed schools, went out of my mind, told my class about this place and you… erased their minds after… I went through more things than you'd believe… I've learnt to lie, pretty damn well mind you…. How 'bout you? How are you?'

'umm… I'm ok I guess…'

'what did you do with the jewel?'

'uh…'

'you don't have to tell me.. its ok.'

'I used it on you…'

'what? How?'

'I wished that you would one day come back… but only when you were ready.'

'oh… thanks I guess.' What about kikyo? Are they together? Is she still around?

'the guys will be really happy to know that your back…'

'huh?… oh right… how are they?'

'they're doing fine… Kaede died last year…'

No…. 'No… that's terrible…' I can't believe she's gone…

'Ya… but she went peacefully… died in her sleep with a smile on her face…'

'Who's the new miko?' Kikyo… I bet

'We don't have one really…. Miroku, is now… but he might want to give it up soon.'

'How's Sango?'

'She was in pretty bad shape when Kohaku died… and she was really upset that you left…'

'Oh… Shippo?'

'I haven't see him in along time… he joined up with more fox demons, a month after you left… but he came to Kaede's burial at least.'

'And what about Kikyo?' Was that a good idea?

'She's gone…'

What! Like dead gone or she left kinda gone… 'she left?'

'she went back…'

oh InuYasha… what? 'what?'

'we understood something from the past… we weren't meant to be… she said it was time for her to go… I told her I couldn't go with her… I had to stay here and look out for this village… it was the best… what we had long ago was nothing more than a fling… I saved her life a month before she left, from a soul eater… we decided that was square for us.'

I can't believe I missed so much… I wonder what else I've missed…

'What else happened?'

'Lets get back to the village and you can find out.'

So we headed back to the village… I still can't believe I made it back… I know… this really is a dream… I really did jump into the well and I hit my head on the wall or the ground and I'm unconscious… yup this has to be a dream…

--

We walked all the way in silence… maybe he to thought this was only a dream…

As we near the village entrance, I cant help but feel at home… yet wondering.. will I ever be able to go home?

Nothing has changed…yet. The villagers are looking at me again… just like they did the first time I came here…

"look at the way that girl is dressed? Is she a demon? She looks like the miko Kagome."

They say the same things too… haha, I guess I made a good impression the last time I was here… that's good.

There were new villagers here, they looked happy, but the people I was looking for were nowhere to be found...

'InuYasha…'

'they went to help an aiding village, yesterday… they'll be back tonight.'

Oh, well at least we'll have a chance to catch up… like me, InuYasha has also changed… he's not as arrogant anymore… why didn't he go help the others with the village?

'InuYasha… why-'

'I didn't feel like going… I had to do some other things…'

Speaking of him doing other things…. What did he do when we went our separate ways?

'Hey, InuYasha… what did you need to do… that day we left each other?'

'Not now… you don't need to know that…'

Huh? What couldn't be important? You left me saying that I couldn't come along because it was dangerous and you didn't want me to gat hurt! What is his deal?

'Why wont you tell me?'

'I'll tell you…. Just not now…'

If he thinks that will end this topic…. He's got another thing coming… I know how to pry out information from people.

'Don't worry Kagome… I'll tell you tomorrow.'

Oh…. Damn…. and I wanted to see if it worked on him….

'Souta says hi…'

'Oh… that's…. err… nice…'

'Haha… so what else have you told my brother?'

'That's between me and him… it's a man-to-man thing…'

'That's what he said…'

'Haha, I told him to.'

I knew it… they were plotting against me.

'And he remembered it too… cool.'

'Why wouldn't he remember? He practically thinks you're his hero. If he could he'd tell all his friends, and he would of brought you in for show-and-tell if he could.'

'Uh, wow… cool.'

'But of course he did tell his friends about you… he just left out the doggie ears, fangs and the fact that you live 500 years in the past and are a demon.'

'Hey! What's wrong with my dog ears?'

He's taking offence…. Usually is his ever so popular "Feh." What did happen while I was away?

'Nothing's wrong with your ears!' except the fact that I've missed them…. They're still so cute!

'Damn straight!'

Whoa…

'Since Miroku and Sango wont be back till tonight… what do you wanna do?' lets go running around… meaning you run and I get a piggy back ride…

'I don't know?'

this is where it got awkward… why I didn't suggest the run I don't know… 'where did you burry Keade?'

'you wanna go pay your respects?'

'ya.' I cant believe she's really gone…

he bent down, 'hop on.'

Yay! 'kaye.'

--

we went to see her resting place… it was sad… but now I'm on his back and we're just running around.. well more like he is…

'haha! Oh wow! Look!' I pointed out a group of rabbits eating in the open field… he stopped.

'Good eye.'

Huh? A complement? Ok…

We stood there for a bit and then we went on our way…

'You know what InuYasha…?'

'What?'

'This feels like flying…'

'Ya?'

'Yup…Thank you…'

'For what?'

Cause I wanted to fly so you gave me your wings…'Never mind…'

'Feh… women…'

'Haha!' There's my old InuYasha…

'Hey, Kagome?'

'Ya?'

'I caught Shippo's scent… you wanna see him?'

'Sure.' I wonder if he grew?

--

We found Shippo… he was really happy to see me… of course he didn't recognize me and bugged InuYasha about having another lover look alike on his back… then he realized it was me… and I don't know who blushed redder… InuYasha, Shippo or me… but I know Shippo got a nice thump for the comment at least…

And he did grow…. At least he was four feet now… not that tall… but when we left I asked InuYasha about it and he said he'd get tall soon enough.

It feels like I never left… the sun is still up, but it feels like it should be almost midnight… when we left we ran more… I think InuYasha has gotten faster… maybe that's why?

This is the life… just running around like this…

'Hold on Kagome…'

We're going up a cliff, 'where are we going?'

'Ah… to see Kouga…'

I thought they hated each other? 'Why?'

'I promised I'd bring you to them when you came back…'

'Is he mated with Ayame?'

'You'll see…'

In no time flat we were at their den.

'Hey wolf! I gatta bone to pick with you!'

Well that's a nice announcement…

'What do you want you mangy mutt?'

Nice welcome… 'Thanks for the nice welcome Kouga.'

'Kagome?'

'yup.'

'hey! When did you return?'

'today…'

'I want you to meet someone.' He walked back into the cave, and came back out with a bundle in his arms, and with someone behind him.

'This is Mari… my daughter.'

She is soo cute… she looks like… Ayame… 'Who's her mother?'

'Me.' Ayame stepped out from behind Kouga.

'she looks at lot like you.' Red hait and everything…

'thanks. But she has her fathers attitude… and she knows how to scare me to death already… just like him too'

Kouga smirked.

'how old?'

'a month.' Kouga was stroking her cheek… he looked soo happy.

'we should go now Kagome.'

I said bye to them, and climbed onto InuYasha and we left…

--

The sun is still up! I think he has gotten faster…

'Hey InuYasha…'

'Ya?'

'I think you've gotten faster…'

'Really? Or maybe time has held its breath so you could see…'

'Humm.' I smiled and snuggled comfortably on his back and enjoyed the feeling of flying…

This is when I really think this isn't a dream… but that I really am back here with InuYasha… thank you Souta…
