--A Few Days Later--(A few days after the last chapter)

Hoshiko knew he was coming, he would be here today. She knew word had gotten out of Kagome collecting Shikon jewel shards from the demons.

'How will she react when he comes?' she questioned.

Looking out past many fields she saw a group of travelers coming her way. Smiling she skipped to Kagome's hut, knowing they would be here soon.

Kagome sat outside of her hut watching the villagers go on with their daily chores. She then saw Hoshiko bounding towards her.

"What has gotten you so happy?" Kagome asked the small child.

"It is a surprise!" came the reply. Suddenly a village woman come running up to Kagome.

"Priestess! A group of travelers have come requesting a meeting with you. Should I turn them away?" asked he woman.

"No, tell them I will be there in a second." Kagome said turning around, only to see Hoshiko wasn't there.

"Hoshiko!" she heard a giggling sound.

"Hoshiko is this the surprise?" there was no reply so she began her walk over to where the villagers gathered.

"Make way, make way for priestess Kagome!" yelled someone in the crowd. She walked through the path made for her.

"No, How?" she asked as she saw the silver-headed hanyou. A flash-back came to her before she could stop it.

'She ran to his life-less body, tears pouring out of her eyes. She broke down, collapsing on top of Inuyasha, his blood gathering in a puddle around them.'

"Inuyasha, no," she said not realizing it had been spoken aloud.

"Do I know you?" he asked staring at her.

'Why is her scent so familiar? Where have I smelled it before?' he thought as he sniffed the air around them.

"Hey Inuyasha, want to tell me where we are sleeping tonight, Kikyou and Sango want to dump their stuff…Kagome?" Miroku asked.

"Miroku, do you know her?"

"We've ah met." He said avoiding eye contact with Inuyasha.

A gasping sound came from behind Miroku, he looked to see Sango standing there, wide eyed. Kagome giggled at their reactions to her appearance. Before any of them could pass words with one another, the hanyou spoke.

"Who the hell are you wench?" Inuyasha's last word uttered made her want to cry, he really didn't remember her.

"I am the temporary priestess of this village. What is it that you want here?"

"We heard that some girl around here was collecting Shikon jewel shards. We've come to retrieve them."

"I'm the girl you're looking for. But I will not hand them over, for the Shikon Jewel is mine to protect."

"We will be taking them, how is your choice, I personally like force," Inuyasha said cracking his knuckles.

"Nara will you prepare my hut for these people?" Kagome asked.

"Of course," Nara said coming out of the crowd.

"Thank you." With that said Kagome turned around and walked towards Inuyasha's forest. When she was out of sight of onlookers, she ran until her feet were numb, but she went on ignoring the pain and pushing it away. She had reached the clearing, the sacred tree towering over her. She kneeled down on the ground and gave in into the overwhelming sadness. Tears leaking out of her eyes, she stood up, sensing a presence. Using the tree as a supporter, she looked behind her to see golden eyes staring back.

"What do you want?" Kagome asked Inuyasha.

"I want to know, why does it feel as if I know you?" he asked, his brow furrowed.

She turned not allowing him to see the pain and heartbreak that ran through her eyes.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I have just met you. I do not know you," she replied. He ran up to her, grabbing her arm, and turning her around.

"Tell the truth bitch!" she struggled trying to rip her arm from his grip. He looked down at her arm he was holding, and saw blood streaking against the pail skin. He dropped it, and stared at his fingers, the nails still holding crescents of the drawn blood.

"Why does it hurt?" he asked as she looked at him.

"When I first saw you, I felt relief for no reason. Just now, when I saw your blood, I felt a pang in my chest. It was as if my mind knew I should never hurt you, yet my body didn't. Who are you?" He asked. The area was quite, a wind blew her hair as she covered her eyes with her bangs. He turned around, about to leave her to her misery. She then looked up, tears in her eyes.

"This wasn't suppose to happen," she said as he turned back around a question look in his eyes.

"You weren't supposed to find me; you were supposed to go on. I won't allow you to throw every sacrifice made, to go back to searching for the Shikon shards. I fit weren't for the Shikon no Tama you wouldn't of…"she stopped herself, already knowing it was too late.

"Wouldn't of what?" he asked his curiosity getting the better of him.

"Never mind Inuyasha, I will give you the shards you asked for if you allow me to travel with your group."

"Ch, no way wench, it's too dangerous." He said sneering. It was her turn to have a cold smile.

"You've no idea what danger I've been through."

'And yet you've always saved me from it. Why not now Inuyasha?' she thought.

"You better be able to protect yourself," he said jumping up into a tree nearby.

Taking that as a yes, Kagome walked back to the village. With every step she felt the golden eyes burning into her back.
