Hoshiko awoke to the sound of commotion outside of the hut, she heard the sliding of the door being open and then closed. She waited until the voices drew farther away from the hut and then she got up to follow. She ran outside, just in time to see the hanyou run into the woods. Quickly but quietly she chased after him, his silver hair like a beacon calling her to him. Hoshiko hid in the tall grass far away from the quarrelling trio. A fight began between the wolf, and half demon, it took all her energy to restrain herself from not calling out to them to stop fighting. She watched as Kagome stood there, seconds later the miko finally regained her wit, in time to yell at Inuyasha.

"SIT!" she commanded, as the hanyou crashed into the ground. Hoshiko started to giggle, but quickly covered her mouth hoping none of them had heard her. They seemed to have not noticed, for they were too caught up in the events of their own lives. The wolf quickly became a strange swirling vortex and spun away, leaving Inuyasha and Kagome to fight amongst themselves. Being too far away, Hoshiko could not here the conversation that unfolded between the two, but she knew it was serious. Minutes later Inuyasha jumped into a tree, which resulted in Kagome leaving. Hoshiko stepped out of the patch of bushes and walked up to the tree the hanyou sat in, and kneeled down onto the ground, still staring at him. He had become annoyed with her silence, and jumped down from the tree.

"Who are you girl?" he asked glaring at her.

"I'm a friend. You really should stop you know," she replied.

"Stop what?" he questioned.

"Trying to push her away, it's obvious that she loves you. Why else would she have stayed by your side for so many years?" the little girl said, standing up to face Inuyasha. He looked at her all the confusion of the past week building up, and showing on his face.

"People keep telling me that I know her, yet I only have one memory from the past telling me so. Then when I ask her, Kagome always says that she doesn't know me. I can smell that she is lying. Why would she lie to me, about something so important?"

"Because Inuyasha, she wants you to move on. She wants to you to leave the old life you had behind, for your own good, even if that means abandoning her. She loves you, enough to lose you, all over again." The sun rose higher in the sky, as the silence that descended upon the conversation became longer. He spoke.

"What do you mean, once again?"

"Umm, never mind?" she said.

"Please just tell me, I do not want to be lied to again."

"News travels fast around these parts, even though you might have been dead for only a few days, everyone knew of it. No one knows how you were brought back, except with your reappearance, someone else disappeared, Kagome. Now I might not be a reliable source of information, but I think that, Kagome did something to bring you back."

"Yeah right kid, you really need to stop letting your imagination run away," Inuyasha said as he ruffled her hair, and then jumped back up into the tree.

"Inuyasha, you've no idea how close to the truth I am. Someday you'll regain your memory, and be able to win Kagome back," She said looking at him one last time before walking into the woods.

'Kagome, why do you not tell him the truth, he needs answers that only you can provide. Both of you feel the absence of something in your hearts, yet you ignore it, and try to move on with whatever life you have. If this goes on for much longer, the damage on your souls might become irreversible. Inuyasha you need to remember the past events, for the well being of you both.' A twig snapped behind Hoshiko, she spun around to see what was there.

"Hello? Is someone there?" she asked, fear rising in her veins. A demon stepped out from the trees. She screamed as loud as she could, before it knocked her to the ground.

--In The Hut--

Everyone was in the hut, all eating their breakfast when they heard the frightened scream of Hoshiko. Kagome ran out of the hut, to be followed seconds later by everyone else. She reached the place where she had heard it come from, and saw a demon advancing towards Hoshiko. It smiled at the little girl, swiping its claw at her, but she ducked in time to save herself. Spotting Kagome, Hoshiko ran over to her, and hid her behind her leg.

"Demon, what do you want with this girl?" Kagome asked.

"That is none of your concern," it replied, oblivious to the hanyou that stood behind him sword drawn. Inuyasha jumped above him, and swung his sword down. Kagome saw the shock on the demons face before it was killed. She turned around, and picked Hoshiko up. Looking back at Inuyasha, she saw him hugging Kikyou, and making sure she was alright. Kagome ran back to the hut, Hoshiko in her arms. Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara saw the look in her eyes; it was full of heartbreak and sadness. Sango pushed through the embrace of Inuyasha and Kikyou and ran after her friend. She finally caught up with her at the hut.

"Kagome, are you sure you're okay," Sango asked.

"No, I'm not," Kagome said breaking down, she started to sob. She ran into the embrace of Sango.

"Kagome, don't worry, he'll remember everything soon," Sango said trying to comfort the crying girl. Kagome wiped her eyes and smiled.

"You don't have to lie to cheer me up," Kagome replied leaving the hut. She walked outside the air calming all of her nerves. Walking on she came to a tree far from the view of people and sat down She replayed the battles that had gone on in her life lately.

'All of the fights that I've been in lately, they all had Hoshiko there. What if she has something to do with the fights, what would someone want with her?' Kagome thought. Rustling of the branches above caused her to look up, and she saw Inuyasha.

"Why are you here Inuyasha, shouldn't you be with Kikyou?" she asked the bitterness she felt towards her showing in her voice.

"She wasn't hurt at all by the demons, so I came here to think. Why'd you come here?" he asked his silver hair blowing in a faint breeze.

"Same as you I guess."

"I found something out today, want to know what." He said with a devilish smirk on his face.

"Sure, why not."

"Hoshiko said that we knew each other, and that makes what about five or so people saying I know you. Which means that you haven't been telling the truth, Kagome please just tell me, did we know each other in the past?"

"Inuyasha, the past is just that, the past. Go somewhere, dig a hole, and bury it. I will tell you nothing, for that is the way it has to be."

"I can't bury something that I don't know of Kagome, there are so many holes in my memory, all I want to do is fill them." She looked at him, and she found no pain or sadness, just confusion in his eyes.

"The memories you seek, I do not have only you have the power to recall them." She said getting up, and walking away. He watched her figure disappear from his sight, he was more confused now then he had ever been in his life.
