Authors note: Yay, 5 reviews. Thank you everyone who reviewed, I appreciate it. As I have mentioned before I have big plans for this story. Ok, it has the same outline as the show and I just finished watching the episode where Inu-Yasha defeats Reiokotsai (can't spell that.. because YTV is only putting up one episode a week… raaaa… YTV is the Canadian station I watch Inu-Yasha on. Ok now on with the chapter.

I'm glad you guys like it!

DarkAngelB- Yah I know what you mean. I thought it was time for a change. I like cats anyways so I thought for once it would be cool to turn Kag into a half kitty. And OF COURSE it's a SessKag fiction… I really wanted to do one and I have so much inspiration cuz all of a sudden it was like, omg I LOVE SESSHIE! And it went downhill from there… But I'm glad you like it!

Shinobi-chan- Inu-Yasha has been really horrid to Kagome with Kikyou and stuff so I thought it'd be nice for Kagome to finally take control and say no. Oh and she will… Inu-Yasha will get mad of course. But Kagome and Sess are going to do something to piss Inu-Yasha off later in the fic…

LastWolfOfHeart- They may become nicer to each other, but Kagome will still hate him for what he did. Not even friends. It'll be like Kagome is ok with Inu-Yasha but doesn't care about him anymore, yah know?

Chapter 3: Word travels Fast

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Kagome sat down. Trying to think out a plan as to what she could do next. Maybe she could have stayed in the village? No, word travels too fast. Inu-Yasha and the gang would go to the village and try and coax her into coming back. Probably saying Inu-Yasha didn't mean it. Yah, right.

Kagome had gotten used to being demon so far. It all still amazed her though. When she was excited, mad, sad, or happy her tail would respond with a different swish and wave. She could hear and smell things miles away. She was learning ways to control her demon blood and use her miko powers at the same time. Training. If she was going to be outside of a village some strong demons may challenge her. She had learnt a move. Shinto Shurigan where she used her claws to send out dangerous blades.

Kagome decided to practice her technique a bit before once again hearing Sakura's voice. Kagome hadn't gone too far from the village but Sakura still shouldn't be there. Kagome turned around and saw the girl with something in her hands.

"Sakura… why are you here?"

The little girl smiled as she put something small into Kagome's hand.

"As a gift for helping the village my mother and father told me to give you this. It isn't much but…"

Kagome looked down as two little green eyes peered up at her. It was something that looked just like Kirara. Exactly like Kirara. Kagome then looked at Sakura. Sakura paced a bit.

"My pet Suki had kittens and I thought it'd be ok to give you one."

Kagome's eyes glistened a bit. This was so kind. And also the little demon in her hands reminded her of Sango whom she missed dearly.

"Thank you Sakura… I shall name her Suzu!"

Kagome once again looked down at the demon and tears finally fell. Kagome felt something tug at her shirt gently. She looked down at Sakura. Sakura looked concerned.

"Kagome-sama, why are you crying?"

Kagome smiled a bit. She balanced Suzu in one hand and used the other to grab Sakura's. Kagome led Sakura down to underneath a tree and sat down. Kagome put Suzu down and pulled something out of her backpack. A picture.

"You see, Suzu reminds me of my friend Sango's own companion named Kirara. See?" Kagome pointed to the right corner where Sango was holding Kirara lovingly. "I still miss her. And you remind me of my little friend named Shippou…" Kagome pointed to the kitsune her arms. Sakura smiled and pointed to Inu-Yasha.

"Who's he?"

Kagome frowned.

"He was a man whom I thought I could trust. But he betrayed me and now I hate him. He used to be my best friend, yet he was disloyal. It's his fault I can't see my friends. His name is Inu-Yasha."

"Why?"

"Because of the way he betrayed me, I cannot stand to be near him. And he travels with my friends." Sakura frowned a bit. She didn't like seeing Kagome so sad. Sakura hugged Kagome.

"I'm your friend."

Kagome smiled.

"Yes, you are."

"Kagome? How did you draw this picture?"

"I didn't, you see I have something that can make pictures."

"Cool!"

Kagome got an idea. She put the picture back in her backpack and rummaged around for something else. She finally pulled out a Polaroid camera. She had forgotten it was a Polaroid.

"Here, sit close to me and I'll hold Suzu and take a picture?"

Sakura nodded and Kagome stretched out her arm and took out the picture. She shook the new picture until it finally showed. The little girl was amazed. She was laughing.

"May I take one Kagome-sama?"

Kagome laughed and said yes. Kagome took the other picture of her and Sakura and put it in her backpack. Kagome taught her how to use it then posed. Sakura gleefully took the picture and her herself shook the picture until it showed up. Sakura handed the picture to Kagome. Kagome grinned to herself. She looked pretty in the picture. The wind was blowing just enough to let a few strands of hair fall in her face. She had a serious look on her face. Kagome laughed when she noticed even the young demon posed at Kagome feet. Instead of putting the picture away in her backpack Kagome took a pen out and wrote something on the back before giving it to Sakura.

"When you see the people that were in the picture please give them this picture. Tell them I'm ok, and if they ask any questions about me please answer truthfully. None of them would ever hurt you. Trust me. Tell them Sango-sama can read it."

The girl hugged Kagome once more.

"Of course I trust you Kagome-sama."

"Now you should go. Your mom might get worried. I will one day come back."

The young girl nodded and headed back off to the village. Kagome turned to Suzu who replied with a mew. Kagome beamed down at the little creature at her feet.

"I guess I won't feel so lonely now will I?"

Once again Suzu mewed happily and closed her eyes. Kagome started to walk and Suzu obediently walked behind her, almost at once taking her new master. Out of the blue Kagome sensed someone nearby. She started to look around in reaction. Her eye soon caught a flash of white somewhere in a tree. She then looked at it again. A baboon pelt.

"Naraku."

Inu-Yasha sniffed the air.

"Definitely. I smell her here. This must be the village she stayed at. But I'm not sure if she's still here."

Sango frowned.

"There's only one way to find out…"

They headed into the village. People started to scream because Inu-Yasha was a demon. Inu-Yasha was used to it by now. All he could say was stop every few minuets. Sango and Miroku rolled their eyes as Shippou laughed. Suddenly a little girl came out of a house and stared curiously at Inu-Yasha before smiling. She ran over and tugged on Inu-Yasha's sleeve to talk to him considering he was trying to calm down the village and hadn't noticed her. He looked down annoyed.

"What do you want?"

The girl held up the picture.

"Kagome-sama told me to give this to people in the picture she showed me. She said Sango-Chan could read the back."

Inu-Yasha grabbed the picture. Kagome? She looked beautiful in the picture. She looked tougher. She was probably doing well out on her own. Inu-Yasha gulped as he passed the picture to Kagome and the others. Of Miroku first commented on how hot Kagome was then noticed how she looked stronger. Sango commented on that to. Kagome looked surer of herself in the picture. She was wearing a pair of tight jeans and a baby pink tee. Her hair hung at her shoulders while a few pieces fell in her face. It had been 3 days yet it felt like so much longer. Everyone missed Kagome. Inu-Yasha turned to the girl.

"How do you know Kagome?"

The girl bit her lip, a bit nervous but she remembered Kagome's words and the words came to her.

"Kagome-sama lived and worked in this village for three days. She saved me. Ask me anything, she told me I can trust you and I should answer all your questions."

"Did… she mention me?"

"Yes, she showed me a magic picture like the one I gave you. It had all of you in it. Kagome said you betrayed her and made you feel really bad. She said you were her best friend but you hurt her, she was really sad when she talked about you…." Inu-Yasha felt even worse. Kagome wasn't the one to hold a grudge. Why couldn't she forgive him? Why couldn't everything just be all-better? Because life wasn't easy… "And she also mentioned how I reminded her of Shippou. That must be you!" She pointed to Shippou. "And she said that Sango was her best friend… She wants to be with all of you… except Inu-Yasha. She says he's the reason she can't you guys because Inu-Yasha is with you guys. Anymore questions?"

Everyone raised their eyebrows. It didn't sound like Kagome. Inu-Yasha broke away from that feeling and asked the question he really wanted to know.

"Which way did she go?"

The girl hesitated before pointing toward the forest. Maybe that wasn't what Kagome meant by answering all their questions. She watched the people leaving. They walked, but Inu-Yasha ran. Finally the girl called out once more after Inu-Yasha.

"Don't hurt Kagome-sama!"

Inu-Yasha frowned even more. Kagome must be mad.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Kagome laughed.

"What do you want Naraku?"

"Word spreads quickly around Japan. So you have become full demon. Congratulations. You hate Inu-Yasha now?"

"Even though it's none of your business, yes. I can truly answer you straight that yes I hate him."

"Would you… kill him?"

"No. I hate him, but I have no reason to end his life."

"I've had enough of your talking."

Kagome jumped easily onto the branch and ripped the baboon pelt in half. She snickered. He didn't actually think she'd give in so easily. She sniffed the air and frowned. Inu-Yasha.

"What do you want?"

Inu-Yasha nervously approached Kagome. Her heart skipping a beat but once more regained its hard exterior.

"Kagome, please you have to understand."

Kagome jumped down and stood in front of Inu-Yasha.

"No, you have to understand. Why do you bother coming here? You know I can't stand you. Inu-Yasha I have made my decision and you have made yours. I don't to have anything to do with you our Kikyou."

"Yes, I am with Kikyou. But you hafta understand that you're the best friend I ever had."

"You think you weren't mine? Inu-Yasha a cared deeply for you. More then you can imagine. I understand if you couldn't see me as a mate but saying I am nothing?"

"Kagome, I didn't mean it that way. I wasn't thinking."

"You know Inu-Yasha. That's the thing about you. You don't think. I'm pretty sure you had your mind on a lot of other things. Like doing Kikyou. Inu-Yasha too many straws on the camels back breaks the camel. Same with my heart. Too many blows and it breaks. Too many times have I forgiven you." Kagome started crying. "I can't forgive you anymore. I just… can't. I'm sorry."

Suddenly there was a voice in her head.

'Kill him. Think of what he did to you, all the pain. He knew you were there. He would have smelt you he is a demon. He hurt you on purpose Kagome. Now you should hurt him.'

"NO!" Kagome started screaming in agony. Naraku's voice protruding her thoughts. Telling her to kill.

"I won't, it's wrong. I won't kill him. Naraku, you won't WIN!"

Inu-Yasha noticed what was going wrong and went down and hugged Kagome. He hated seeing her in such a way. He couldn't get rid of Naraku but maybe he could help Kagome take control. Noticing Inu-Yasha near her Kagome finally regained her consciousness. She buried her head into Inu-Yasha's chest crying.

"I can't…"

She soon stopped crying and stared at Inu-Yasha a bit before gently pushing away.

"No… I won't be hurt anymore… Never again will you hurt me."

Kagome walked away and leaned against a tree, her back facing Inu-Yasha.

"Just go. Please, just go."

"But. Kagome we want you back. I'm sorry. Please come back. Everyone misses you…"

"GO!"

As much as it hurt him Inu-Yasha obeyed and left. Maybe he couldn't talk to her but Sango probably could. He went to get them.

"She… she kinda forgave me… not totally. But…"

"Where is she then?"

"She's never coming back. I know she won't. You guys don't understand how much I hurt her. I'm sure we will see her another time. I won't talk to her but you guys will. Next time. Let's just look for jewel pieces for now…"

"But without Kagome we can't know where they are!" Shippou yelped. Everyone nodded in agreement. It was true.

"We can still try."

They nodded and solemnly headed back to the village.
