Well I decided to
update again and I know that my other fics need updating but I know I
won't be able to get anymore ideas for those until I get the ideas
for this one out of my head. Plus, I'm planning to update The
Breakdown: Life After Death sometime this week anyway.
Disclaimer:
I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho, InuYasha, or the song "Good-bye
to you" by Michelle Branch.

HieiLover177: Yeah the TV part was kinda
confusing but I just had to put it in there for some reason. Omg
remember, "TVS are portals to different times" lmao. I bet
by the time you read this you'll have finished the whole Fruits
Basket series lol.
Gothic Miko Princess: I probably should've made
it longer but I'm kinda lazy X I made this chapter much longer than
the last one. Glad you liked it!
Last Time:
"There's a well called "The Bone Eater's Well" in a family's shrine. Their daughter has traveled to the and from our time and the Feudal Era several times. You'll be enlisting this girl's help, and the use of the well for your mission. We will be bring the girl here and explaining our situation to her. Once we've done that we can only hope she'll agree to help us." Koenma answered.
Now:
Kagome
laid in her room and cried into her pillow. She hadn't come out of
her room for three days and she didn't plan on coming out anytime
soon. Her eyes felt really dry from crying so much but the tears just
kept coming as she thought about what InuYasha had said to her.
Suddenly Kagome found herself in Koenma's office with a bunch of
people staring at her. She suddenly became very self conscious. Her
hair was messy and her eyes were red and puffy from crying.
"Where am I?" She asked.
"You are currently
in the Spirit World." Koenma answered.
"I..what?"
Kagome said confusedly. "So I'm dead?" Then she spotted
Kuwabara "OH MY GOD! I DIED IN MY SLEEP AND WENT TO HELL! But I
always pictured hell to be a little more fire-y and scarier than
this." She said taking a better look at her surroundings.
"Your not in hell Ms.Higurashi. Nor are you going to hell. We
brought you here today because of a demon named Naraku who is gaining
power in the Feudal era." Koenma began. He explained the whole
situation to her. A/N: I'm not going to explain the whole thing
again because I'm basically too lazy so let's fast forward a bit
"So, this is where you come in. We know that you have traveled
to the Feudal Era and back many times and you probably know a lot
about this Naraku character correct?" Koenma said
"Yes, Kagome answered then added, and there are already people
in the Feudal Era trying to stop him."
"Well
that's great, but we fear that they won't be able to stop him all by
themselves and neither will we and we understand that you have
befriended some of the people in the Feudal Era who tried to stop
him, correct?" Koenma said in one big, long, run-on sentence
that would have caused English teachers around the U.S. to have
fits.
"Yes I am friends wit- Kagome began but
then stopped. She remembered the fight she had with InuYasha and
remembered her vow that she would never go back. "I'm sorry but
I sealed off the well from our end and I won't be going back. I'll
unseal the well for you and you can go in, but I won't be going with
you." Kagome said coldly.
"Ms. Higurashi I
don't think you quite understand the importance of this. We need you
to go along as well to help locate Naraku and to get your friend's in
the Feudal Era to agree to work with my detectives on this."
Koenma said firmly. "Besides, if you don't go I'll have no
choice but to send you to spirit world jail and I don't think you
want to go there."
Kagome sighed realizing she had no
choice. "Alright, I'll go." She said.
"Good, and I suppose I should introduce my spirit detectives.
They're Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei and Kurama." Koenma said pointing
to each one as he said their name. Then Koenma summoned a portal that
would take them to Kagome's house. They all went through it and when
they got to the well they were shocked.
"Geez,
you must've gotten majorly pissed! How many rocks did you throw in
there?" Yusuke exclaimed.
Kagome ignored
him and began taking out the stones and everything else she threw in
there. Everyone else started helping to and it took them an hour
before the well was clear. They all jumped into the well and were
transported into the Feudal Era. Almost as soon as Kagome got out of
the well Shippo clung to her leg.
"Kagome!" He greeted
her happily. His greetings were almost immediately followed by Miroku
and Sango's.
"Kagome-san! I was afraid you would never
come back!" Sango said pulling Kagome into a friendly
hug.
"Yes, I too was afraid of that." Miroku said
hugging Kagome and then groping her. Kagome slapped him and looked
around.
"Where's InuYasha?" She asked.
A grave silence fell over Miroku, Sango, and Shippo until Miroku
spoke.
"After you left he went to go find Kikyo
and kill Naraku on his own." He said sadly. "I'm sorry,
Kagome." He added seeing her expression.
"It's
fine. I'm over him anyway." Kagome said putting on a brave
face.
"Who's InuYasha?" Kuwabara asked
speaking for the first time and drawing attention to the spirit
detectives.
"He's no one." Kagome answered
coldly. "I guess I should introduce you guys. Sango, Miroku,
Shippo, Kirara, this is Hiei, Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama. They're
going to be helping us defeat Naraku." As Kagome said this she
pointed to everyone as she said their name and her icy tone turned
into her normal warm friendly voice.
"We
should probably get going since we only have a few shards left before
we finish the sacred jewel and I think we should find them before
InuYasha does." Miroku said.
"Right.
I'm not sensing any shards nearby so we should head back to where we
were before-...before I left." Kagome said her voice
cracking slightly at the end.
So they traveled
through the woods until nightfall and they made camp in a clearing.
Sango and Kagome went to the hot springs nearby to bathe while the
guys went to get firewood and set up camp.

Kagome and Sango
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Aaaah this water
feels really nice." Kagome said sitting down in the hot
spring.
"Yeah, it does." Sango agreed and she closed her
eyes.
Kagome took her cd player out of her backpack and set it on
the rocks near the spring and put her headphones on. The song she
listened to was "Good-bye to you" by Michelle Branch.
With
the guys
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
They
had just finished setting up camp and were now sitting around the
fire.
"Miroku, what happened between Kagome and that InuYasha
guy?" Yusuke asked.
"Well, they argued all the time and
it was usually no big deal. They'd argue and then just forget about
it. But this time InuYasha hurt Kagome really bad. Not physically
just emotionally."
"What did he do to hurt her so
bad?" Kurama asked.
"He said some things that
weren't very nice." Miroku answered. "It's kind of a long
story since you don't know the person they were fighting about and
their whole history and everything. Plus, I'm not sure if Kagome
really wants me telling you."
"Hn, I'll find out
on my own." Said Hiei, he had become interested in this for some
reason and his jagan eye was glowing and he saw what Kagome was
thinking about as she was listening to her song.

Of
all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over
with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the
days that pass me by
The first few lines of the song made Kagome remember the nights she had spent crying over InuYasha. She was not going to cry anymore though. He isn't worth it. That's what she told herself anyway.
I've
been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are
starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The
last three years were just pretend
And I said,
She remembered
InuYasha's words so clearly it was almost as if he were standing next
to her and yelling them again.
"Kagome, why don't you just go
back to your own time? You did once before and I was a lot happier
when you were gone! I'm sure I'll be happier this time too! A lot
happier with Kikyo!"
Kagome felt tears sting her eyes as she
replayed that painful scene in her mind. All that time she had spent
thinking of him and how she had been so happy when she was near him.
It had all been such a waste.
Goodbye
to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one
I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing
that I tried to hold on to
"Never again
will I fall in love. Never again will I put myself through that kind
of pain. Good-bye InuYasha, and good-bye to every feeling of love I
have ever felt and will ever feel." Kagome thought as tears
flowed freely down her face.
"Kagome, are you alright?"
Sango asked her. Kagome felt herself snap back to reality. She had
forgotten where she was and that Sango was there.
"Yeah I'm
fine. Let's head back now. It's getting late and we should probably
get some rest." She responded.
Hiei's
POV
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I
got out of her mind and mine took a moment before it registered
everything I had just seen in this miko's mind. I felt sympathy for
her. I knew what it was like to feel unloved and betrayed by those
whom you cared about and who you thought cared about you. Maybe
there's more to this girl than I
thought.
That's
where I'm ending it. I hope you guys liked this chapter. I'm sorry if
I'm not able to update this for awhile but I'm probably going to be
pretty busy with school and what not so It's possible that I won't be
able to update until June but I'll try really hard to update before
then. Don't forget to R&R
Thursday Addams
