Chapter One: Leaving Home, Comforting Mother
She walked down a darkened hallway with a cozy bundle on her back. She looked back toward her mother's room. No one walked out, but sound of her mother sleeping peacefully calmed Kagome's nerves. She didn't have to worry yet. It had been ages since she would sneak out to go down the well. Kagome reached the front door. She paused to think. Could this be the best thing for her to leave? Would it be the best thing for her and her baby girl who was sleeping on her back? Kagome didn't know, but was ready to find out. She slowly closed the door. Kagome looked around quickly for the fat lovable Buyo who would give her away. When she realized he wasn't outside, Kagome ran to the well house. She missed InuYasha badly and had told him last night that she would return with their child as soon as she can. Luckily, her mother had a headache today and took sleeping pills to be able to rest. Kagome went to the well's edge and peered down the darkness. "Ok, Kagome, you can do this," Kagome muttered, adjusting her baby on her back. "All you have to do is go back and return before sunrise to get your clothes and stuff that would survive in the past. This is for Sakura. She needs to be near her twin brother, Hikaru." Kagome sat down on the edge of the well.
"Kagome?" a voice asked from the doorway of the well house. Kagome looked to see her brother and grandfather standing there.
"I'm so sorry, but Sakura and Hikaru should be raised together and I shouldn't be ordered to stay away from the one I love," Kagome cried, trying to not wake Sakura. Sakura's cries would wake Kagome's mother.
"Kagome, I know you miss InuYasha. Why must you result to this?" Kagome's grandfather asked.
"Because Mom doesn't understand how not be near the ones I miss so bad tears at my heart," Kagome answered. "I have to leave. I can live without the stuff I used to be so dependent on. I will visit. I promise." Kagome's grandfather and Kagome's brother, Sota, nodded with tear-streaked faces. "I will be back before sunrise to gather my stuff and talk to Mom. She will understand more if Sakura is with InuYasha. Sota, be good. Grandpa, keep up with the silly charms and scrolls. I have to go. I need Hikaru and InuYasha near me now." Sota and Kagome's grandfather, Grandpa as called by many, waved and nodded. Kagome waved back and jumped into the darkness below. She closed her eyes and felt her feet touch ground. "InuYasha, I'm home. Hikaru, Mommy is coming." Kagome began to climb the ladder that she built so that carrying Sakura and Hikaru up the well wouldn't be as hard. She reached the top and looked out at the village. "Sakura, we are home." Kagome smiled and adjusted Sakura on her back. She began to walk toward the village when a black figure ran in front of her. It stopped right in front of her. Kagome blinked and caught the silver gleam. She began to laugh.
"Finally, I was worried. I was wondering when you would finally take care of Hikaru. Sango refused to help me and Kaede helped out little. I'm at my wits' end. Take your motherly role back," the figure begged. Its golden eyes shined in the moonlight.
"InuYasha, I feel so loved," Kagome pouted. InuYasha smirked and hugged her, making sure Sakura wasn't crushed.
"I did miss you. Hikaru missed you more. He is only how old and he cries constantly," InuYasha said. Kagome smiled a 'he misses his mother' look.
"He misses me. InuYasha, Sakura and Hikaru are only ten months old. Soon, they will be walking and talking," Kagome replied. InuYasha nodded and released Kagome from his embrace. "Fall babies. October will rear its head and then, we will have a pair of one year old twins." InuYasha chuckled. They laced hands and began to walk toward the village. It wasn't long before Kagome heard Kaede's pleads of silence and Hikaru's cries coming from a hut. Kagome walked in. "Someone need my help?" Kaede looked at Kagome with shocked eyes.
"Kagome, you are back. This is good. Time for Hikaru's mother to tend to him," Kaede breathed. Kagome took Sakura off her back. Sakura stayed asleep as Kaede took her away from Kagome and laid her down in a crib that Kagome had brought with her when InuYasha learned that she was pregnant. Kagome looked at the crying boy that was her Hikaru. Kagome sat next to him on the hay bed. She picked him up and rocked him. Hikaru stopped crying and looked at her. He smiled and grabbed Kagome's longer than shoulder length hair.
"Hikaru, it is alright. Mommy is here. She will be staying for awhile. I love you, Hikaru. You shouldn't be separated from your sister any more," Kagome whispered. Hikaru closed his golden brown eyes and went to sleep, his black-streaked silver dog-like ears twitching. Kagome held for a little longer before placed him in the crib next to Sakura. "I'll be back my babies." Kagome kissed both of the babies. She then looked at InuYasha and walked out the hut.
"Must you go back now. Can I come with you?" InuYasha asked. Kagome walked on.
"Yes and yes. I need back up," Kagome said. InuYasha smiled and lifted Kagome in order to run. They were in the present time within a matter of minutes. Kagome and InuYasha crept in the house and up to Kagome's room. Kagome snatched the nearest suitcase and began to pack her clothes. Once all the clothes she needed was in, Kagome packed Sakura and Hikaru's clothes.
"This is taking too long," InuYasha hissed. Kagome glared at him. She hurried about, packing everything else she needed.
"I can always return to replenish what is little," Kagome whispered, handing the suitcase to InuYasha. "Take this to the well house and return here." Kagome opened her window. InuYasha took the suitcase and disappeared for a few minutes. He returned as the sun's rays began to kiss the earth. Kagome sighed and crawled into her bed. "I need to get some sleep. You can, too, if you want." Kagome closed her eyes as InuYasha sat outside her window. A few hours later, Kagome's mom, called by her childhood nickname Ai, walked in.
"Kagome, it is time for you to get up. Sakura is going to be up very shortly," Ai said as she shook Kagome. Kagome opened her eyes.
"Ok, Mom. I'll be down for breakfast in a minute," Kagome said in a sleepy tone. Ai shock her head and left the room. Kagome climbed out of bed and changed her clothes. She lift Sakura's blanket out of the crib and held it in her hand as InuYasha came into her room. "Hikaru still had his blanket, right?"
"I made sure he had it when he did sleep. Why are you holding Sakura's like that?" InuYasha asked. Kagome shrugged.
"I need this to explain to my mother," Kagome answered. InuYasha nodded in understanding. He knew that Ai wouldn't just let her daughter leave her. Ai wouldn't definitely not want her granddaughter leaving her like her grandson did when Kagome sent him to be with InuYasha. InuYasha followed Kagome as she walked down the stairs to the kitchen. Ai turned and saw the blanket in Kagome's hand. Worst of all, she saw InuYasha and knew something was really up.
Thank you for reading this story. I need to know if anyone liked it and would like me to continue it so that I will update since I don't know if this is a great story or not. Sakura and Hikaru are some of my favorite names and that's why they are Kagome's children (just if you are wondering) Well, I have talked enough and must go. See ya! - LadyKagome215
