Anyways... I don't own Inuyasha..yadayadayada.. Here's the chappie! Remember to review! I love feedback!

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

She walked through the forest; thick leaves surrounded her, making it impossible to see the moon. It was already night, yet her surroundings seemed to be getting darker. She felt something watching her.

Damn! Why did I have to come here? Should I call Inuyasha and go back to the hut? She shook her head. No, it's probably just my imagination. She came upon a small lake filled with crystalline water , a strange glow was coming from it's center. A sphere suddenly hovered above the water and she could hear sweet music surrounding her.

"Kagome..." it said, a voice as sweet as nothing could ever be. It repeated her name "Kagome.." The miko was being lulled to sleep, visions of happy times with her family filled her head..."Kagome..." she closed her eyes. "Kagome...die!"

A giant tentacle shot out from the water ready to take her into the now dark thick waters. She couldn't move no matter how much she tried, "What's going on?" The demon showed itself in it's true form, but she still couldn't move, couldn't stay awake. Her eyes were closing against her will. The last thing she saw was a flash of red and silver in front of her, trying to shield her.

Inuyasha.

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

What the hell is that!

Inuyasha looked at the glowing ball that was hovering on the lake. "This doesn't smell good.", his sensitive ears picked up a sort of music, sweet and soft; however her could barely hear it. The music was being directed only to Kagome.

He saw the tentacle come out of the water and with his inhuman speed was in front of Kagome in a heart beat. "You ok Kagome?" he turned around just as she fell back whispering his name. He caught her and jumped as the tentacle was inches away from his arm.

"What did you do to her you bastard!"

The water demon smiled, "You shall see, soon her most painful memories will fill her mind and consume her soul!"

"What are you talking about! Bastard! You'll pay"

Inuyasha pushed his sword forward, "Wind Scar!"

The monster was enveloped in gray waves of water and screamed in agony. It fell forward into the water and started disintegrating. "Feh. Bastard." Inuyasha smirked at the easy kill; his happiness was gone though, when he saw the monster's back. In the middle of the ashen body was a purple spider mark.

Naraku.

ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Back at the hut Inuyasha set Kagome down on the mat. "Where could the others be!" They had come back to the hut when the sun was peaking over the horizon as Inuyasha has to bandage Kagome's arm that got injured on the way back. It would still be too early for the others to have gone anywhere, especially Shippo.

"Meow" Inuyasha looked at the corner of the hut. Buyo stretched lazily and walked over to the confused hanyou. Once the cat was next to him he saw a note where the cat had been sleeping before. He stood and picked it up; the author was definitely Miroku...

Inuyasha, reports of a demon attacking a nearby village came to us ,and we have gone to their aid. We tried to find you , but it seems that you were off "comforting" lady Kagome off somewhere in the woods. You dog you! We leave this note under a cat we found in the hut yesterday. It seems reluctant to leave and it eats quite a bit (even more then YOU). He seems to be very lazy, so I doubt he'll move. We'll be back in a round 3 days, and we've taken Shippo and Kaede with us. Hehe, more privacy for you two lovebirds. Just make sure to...ok, well, Sango will hit me again if I don't stop writing this note.

Have fun,

Miroku

"Oh well, at least I have a Miroku free three days!"He looked over in worry to where Kagome lay. She doesn't seem sick, just sleeping. I'll wait for a couple of hours to pass and then I'll wake her up. He looked at her face. Her hair was strewn around her, her pale face shone like the moon, her lips...

Stop it, she'd never think of you that way.

He stood up and turned to leave when he heard Kagome move around on the mat. He turned around and saw her moving as if she was gonna wake up. She stretched her arms and legs and felt around for a blanket with closed eyes. Inuyasha took off his haori and put it on top of her; she mumbled something and snuggled into the fire rat cloth. A smile lit her face.

Feh. Women.

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

hours later...Kag's POV

I opened my eyes to see red. It was something red, something fluffy. The warmth that I got from it was wonderful and I felt like I had slept for days. I opened my eyes more and sat up. Buyo was currently staring at my feet.

"Hey, kitty, so, how do you like this era?"

Buyo meowed lazily and went to the corner to resume whatever he had been doing before. I looked around for a moment. I wonder where the others are?

I stood up and stretched, my muscles ached a lot, and I saw that my arm had a bandage on it. I remember now. Last night, the monster, Inuyasha being there, me passing out. What happened after that?

The hut suddenly shone in light and Inuyasha poked his head through the door.

"You're finally awake"

"Yeah, woke up just a minute ago. Where are the others?"

"Off helping some nearby village that's under attack by a demon.

"Do you think they need our help?"

"No, Miroku left a note, I think they'll be fine without us."

I sighed. At least they won't ask about last night. Oh mom, why did you and Sota and Gramps have to go, if you were here I wouldn't feel so alone. Then again, I'm not alone am I. Inuyasha's here with me.

"So you feeling better?"

"Huh?" I looked up. "Oh yeah, slept really nice , but my arm hurts."

"Yeah, you hurt it during the night. After the fight with the monster." His eyes suddenly narrowed.

"What were you doing out there anyways? You were almost killed!"

I laughed nervously, "I needed a little walk, ya know, to clear my head."

"A two hour walk!"

Hehe, "Yeah, the time just flew by. Sorry."

"You sure you're okay though?"

"Yeah, we should probably head out and get some food. I really don't feel like ramen today, but don't worry, you can have some."

I stood up and gave him back his haori. "Thank you for lending it to me, it kept me warm."

Inuyasha's face was alight with a small blush.

"Feh, let's go. I'm hungry already.

ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Inu POV

We walked around, looking for berries and fruits. Kagome felt like wandering around, so we did. The sun was high in the sky but the wind kept the day cool. For the first time since she came back Kagome looked relaxed; her hair flowed in the wind and she opened her arms pretending to fly.

"Hey Kagome, what are you gonna do after we get all the jewel anyways? There's not much of it left to find."

My question seemed to depress her. Her face became dark and her body lost it's happy energy.

"I don't know, maybe I'll stay here; god knows I don't need any more math test in my life."

"But what about your family? Your mother, brother, and that weirdo of your grandfather. You would miss them wouldn't you. Plus you can't leave me without my daily supply of ramen."

I caught the scent of salty tears.

"Kagome? You alright?"

She didn't answer.

"Kagome, look at me." Nothing happened. I walked over to her. "Look at me" Her face looked up and she gasped. Tears were streaming freely down her face.

She was looking past me, her eyes wide.

"Sota?"

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
