Hi…Hello people. I'm here with another stupid fic of mine. Well…I'm really sorry if you have to endure reading this fic. Don't worry, when I find myself on the right track, this fic will be fixed. I really want another fic like my 'It's Hard to Tell'. It seems I can't live without making any InuKag stories.

To Be With You
Chapter 1
"Put your luggage over there girls." Mrs. Higurashi said to her daughters, Kagome and Kikyo.
They're just new in this town, or so Kagome and Kikyo thought. They have done this often. Transfer to places because of their mother's work. But now, she said this is permanent. Well, she always says that.
Right after Kagome and Kikyo put their things out of the way, they rounded on their mother and asked if they could do anything to help.
"No, don't worry. I called some people to help fix up and clean the house. You can go outside and enjoy the sunshine. Maybe you can even meet some friends!" she answered.
"Are you sure you can trust these people?" Kikyo queried.
"I'm sure. They are my long time friends. Haven't I told you? This is my family's house from my childhood to my adolescence." Their mother said cheerfully.
"That's news to us!" Kagome said in surprise.
"Okay, just go and enjoy yourself girls!" she said pushing her daughters gently out of the door.
Kagome and Kikyo explored outside their house. It's really much different from their old home but it feels welcoming more than ever. The wind is cool against their faces and flowers of every color send their sweet scent everywhere.
Kikyo got fascinated with the designs of the clothes on one shop and decided to stop over and look. Kagome who isn't very interested herself rounded the corner to explore more of the town's beauty, only to find a place that seems not to fit in here.
There is a vast land everywhere she looks at and at the edge of it is a wild looking forest.
Sneaking off, not thinking about her sister finding her gone, her feet made contact with the dewy grass.
"It's more windy here…and there are so many trees! I really love nature! I really wish mom is serious about us staying in this place permanently." She said to herself.
Her feet brought her farther away from the houses to the edge of the forest. She wasn't surprised to see an 'OFF-LIMITS' sign there. People, especially kids, might go wandering and get themselves lost in there. There are wires all over to make sure no one will pass.
The forest looks enchanted in Kagome's eyes. The trees are large and definitely tall as she looked up. The deep depths seem dangerous…yet, to her, magical.
"Oh this is crazy." Kagome remarked with a small laugh.
She always loved trees, animals, forest…everything about nature… But she never entered a forest before. She's not aware of the dangers it might cause her.
But still, her eyes are glued to the scary darkness beyond the trees. It's as if there is something special for her to see there. But what it was… she doesn't know.
"I need to go." She said, removing her gaze from the trees and starting to walk away from it.
It's already afternoon and she's hungry. A nice snack is what she needed now. But she'll return, she decided about that.
Kagome again found herself in front of the store where Kikyo went in. She saw her standing there nervously.
"Where have you been!" Kikyo exclaimed when she finally saw Kagome.
"Just wandered around." She answered nonchalantly.
"You've been so long. Let's go home now. Next time tell me where you're going so that I'll not be dead nervous about you!" Kikyo said.
"Sure…I'm sorry." Kagome muttered.
They went straight home before it got too dark in the streets. They knocked on the door and their mother opened it and ushered them inside.
"Did you enjoy yourselves girls?" she asked.
"Yes, mom. Their fashion here is really beautiful. I liked the dresses sold down the lane." Kikyo answered, smiling.
"We could buy some of those next time if you like. How about you Kagome?" Their mother asked rounding on Kagome.
"Well…I enjoyed…Do you know that there's a field by the end of the lane, mom? And there's a forest at the edge of the town! It looks so enchanted!" she suddenly said.
"Don't get yourself lost in there Kagome. It's off limits and it's dangerous." Her mom cautioned.
"I know. It's just that…the forest is like…inviting me…" she muttered, really unsure of what she was saying.
"There are more than just ordinary creatures there. Everything that lives there is banished from this land. Don't ever go near there again Kagome. I—I don't want to lose you." Her mother said while giving her a tight hug.
"Yes, mom." But she knows she's gong to have to break that promise.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Kagome is now in her own room, thinking.
"More than just ordinary creatures? What is mom talking about?" Kagome wondered. She's going to find out for herself the next day.
Her sleep is troubled by very weird dreams. She seldom dreamt of anything ever since she was a child. And it seems that everything she dreamed when she was a little girl is coming back.
"You are destined for this Kagome. You can run…but you can't hide. Your destiny will follow you wherever you go. You should accept this…"
Where is that voice coming from? She wondered.
"It's I who will decide your destiny."
There it is again…Who are you? She called out.
And there it was, in front of her, more clearer than ever…
The Shikon-no-tama…
Sh—shikon-no-tama? Kagome asked herself totally confused.
"I am your destiny…that you should follow…"

I'm really sorry. It's weird right? Don't worry this story will be clear for you to understand soon. Maybe a couple of chapters can explain it but for now let's just keep this chapter hanging, okay? It really looks hanging to me. I can't even understand why I wrote this. It's my fingers' fault! They keep typing and typing!
Anyway, please review. Thank you!
