Looking In The Past

Chapter Two

Findings And Secrets

I'm so sorry I haven't written in awhile! It's not my fault! I've been gone most of spring break and I have to tell you something very important after the chapter. Please don't hate me! Again, sorry!

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any other character other than Miroku in a way. I will let you use him in your stories and stuff. Sorry for the rush, but I'm in a hurry.

Findings and Secrets

He twitched in his sleep. He was dreaming, but it seemed horrible and unwanted…a nightmare. Was he just scared and having nightmares because he wasn't used to this world? No one knew. Had he been like this before? No one knew. Poor Inuyasha.

He slept off in a corner, kept secret and away from the others. Perhaps this was why, was this a habit that he didn't want to let anyone know about? Keh, enough with the questions. He was curled up into a tight ball with blankets covering him. He shivered and twitched all through the night.

Morning rose and one by one, the kids rose from their 'beds'. It was more of a want-to-be bed, just stacked up sheets and pillows that were comforting enough. Miroku yawned and stretched his body, as Kagome came in pajamas and slippers to open the doors. The sun shined in on the children, and it glared into their eyes.

"Close the doors!" Sango yelled out.

"Sorry, sorry." Kagome said and closed the shed doors, "How did you guys sleep?"

To Kagome's sweet perky voice, Inuyasha's eyes succeeded to open. "Ehh.. Kagome?" He muttered, and stood up walking towards her.

"Inuyasha!" She squealed.

"H-hey." He said, trying not to seem so excited.

"Mommy just made our breakfasts!" Kagome said.

"Yay!" Miroku was instantly up.

"Food sounds good." Sango said still sleepy.

The whole group of friends walked outside of the shed type place, and into Kagome's house. Inuyasha could smell the food instantly; it filled his nose with a fresh smell. Pancakes. He had these before once when Kagome brought them to his village, her leftovers from that very morning. There weren't enough seats so they all sat down. But Inuyasha wanted to sit off in a corner.

"Why?" Miroku asked him, "Come sit with us!"

"I…just don't want to." He responded and sat beside a small bookshelf and started eating slowly.

"Just let him do what he wants." Sango said. Kagome and Miroku nodded. And Inuyasha sighed.

"What was wrong with you earlier today?" Miroku asked Inuyasha while they were playing in the shed.

"Do you promise not to tell?"

"Yes. You're my best friend, Inuyasha! You can trust me."

"Eh…whatever. Well…I…"

"You…?"

"DON'T RUSH ME."

"Sorry, sorry…" He coughed, "You?"

"I…last night…I dreamt Sesshomaru came and took Kagome away."

"Nonsense. Kagome and Sess don't even get along!"

"I wasn't done. He came and took her away, and somehow…they fell in love. And she never…ever, talked to us."

"KAGGY WOULD NEVER DO THAT, INUYASHA!" Miroku was about to burst in tears, the thought of his best friend leaving them just because of a boy.

"It was just a dream…err…nightmare, I just hope nothing like it ever happens."

"What ever happens?" Kagome said entering the shed.

"Uh…err…I hope no one ever breaks my record!" Inuyasha thought quickly.

"Oh, well…no one can, Inuyasha!" Kagome giggled, and then turned around.

"Keep your promise, twerp." Inuyasha said and followed her out.

Once again, they were playing a game outside. This time, the object was to find one another, the game…Hide and seek! Sango was it. She counted to thirty and everyone ran around looking for a place to hide. She found Kagome first; she was hiding next to an old bike and a bush.

"You're it!" Sango said. Kagome ran to the tree to count. Once everyone was hidden…

"20. 21…22…23…24…" She counted.

"25." A dark eerie voice said. Kagome looked up. Her eyes widened…It was….

"She can't find us. Not a chance!" Sango and Inuyasha were hiding behind a tree giggling. Miroku was next to Kagome's mother's car.

"Shh! She'll hear us!"

"Hehe! Sorry!"

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome was shaking, she never liked this boy. He was cruel and evil to her. He once threatened her to kill her. How could Inuyasha's half brother be so…so…different than him? She liked Inuyasha, she just wasn't sure if it was in a friend type of way, either. She was just a kid!

"Yes."

"What are you doing here? Y-you got through the well?"

"Well, if I didn't…how did I get here?" He said rolling his eyes, "Look…I've got a deal for you."

"What are you talking about? You hate me!"

'But I need to get back at my half brother, Inuyasha.' Sesshomaru snorted as he thought. "Yes. But you're coming with me. I…I like you Kagome." He lied. What was this thought about getting back at Inuyasha?

Kagome froze. What was she supposed to say? She didn't have the courage to say anything bad to him. She stood still.

"Will you be my best friend…? I mean, girl…friend?"

Now she was in shock.

'Gotta get back at Inuyasha…even if it means lying.' The thoughts continued.

"Err…Yes?" She regretted what she just said. She couldn't say no. She wasn't one to hurt someone, even if they hated him or her.

"When I was mean to you before, I just didn't want to be nice to you because that was a feeling of being nice." The lies continued. Sesshomaru took Kagome's hand, and began to run into the woods. Far, far, away. Kagome was forced to follow, due to the fact that her hand was within Sesshomaru's grasp.

"Where is she?" Inuyasha was getting impatient; it had been at least 5 minutes. She couldn't be that bad at this game could she?

Inuyasha and Sango stood up and ran to the tree where Kagome was supposed to be counting. At the tree, Miroku was standing looking around.

"Where's Kagome?" Miroku said.

"I don't know." Inuyasha and Sango said, at the same time.

"B-but…oh…my…dream…" Inuyasha said and ran off.

"What's he talking about?" Sango asked.

Miroku fell silent, "I said I wouldn't tell." He sat himself on the ground, "I told him I wouldn't…and I'm sorry, Inuyasha…I'm sorry this had to happen."
