Chapter 2

(Disclaimer: I am not taking or copying anything off of the Inuyasha show, and I do not own Inuyasha or any of the other characters of the show!) And thanx to Brynn and Lonely-Yashafor reviewing my first chapter!

"Kagome," the man said, with longing in his voice. "It's so nice to finally meet you. My younger brother always came home telling our mother all about you." He smiled as he said this, fangs showed as well as the rest of his teeth. He had that mysterious look to him; something just told her that she needed to be with him, to go with him.

"Really?" Kagome asked, shocked at this. She didn't know what to think really, just shocked.

"Yes," he replied. "Oh, and my name is Sesshoumaru. This is Jaken," he pointed at the goblin, "and Rin." He stepped aside to reveal a young child with long raven hair and green eyes looking scared.

"Hello?" she said, confused again. Why does this seem so familiar? Kagome asked herself. It was like she did this before, deja vu. "Mom, grandpa, Souta?" she asked, looking at all three, her eyes asking for help. But they just shook their heads and walked upstairs. They had to leave me here alone, didn't they? She thought.

"Kagome," he said again, more longing in his voice, "I have come to ask you to return with me." He smiled and Jaken just sighed, rolling his eyes. Sesshoumaru went and hit Jaken on the head. "Would you stop that!" he yelled, glaring at him.

"But me lord, why do you need this human girl? You already have Rin," Jaken explained. He pointed at Kagome then at Rin, looking a little mad and angered by this. "Me Lord, please," the little creature pleaded.

"Jaken, you already know why I must get Kagome," Sesshoumaru explained, sighing. "So, Kagome, would you please come with me?" He gave a quick smile that soon faded when Kagome began to speak.

"To where exactly and why? And who was your little brother? How would he know me?" she asked, demanding answers. She was determined to get the answers that she wanted and needed.

"Well," he said, pausing. "My brother was and is Inuyasha, he knew you from school as a little child." He looked down at her longingly, looking a bit soft, yet hurt as he explained about his brother and knowing her. "Well, it's back to my time."

She looked at him, raising an eyebrow and placing a hand on her hip, tapping it also with her forefinger. Sesshoumaru looked her up and down, taking in everything that he saw. Her full-rounded breasts, the perfect shape of her body, that small waist of hers, and the nicely shaped, tanned calves. He couldn't help but stare at how short her school uniform was, and how much it revealed. So much that he had to look away. Jaken was the only one who noticed him do this and just shook hi head, sighing.

"So, what do you say, Kagome?" Sesshoumaru asked again. I have to bring her back with me, he told himself. He was determined to get her to go with him. He didn't want to force her though. He needed her to go on her own free will.

"Well," she paused. "I don't know. I mean, I really don't know you or where you're from." She was confused, she wanted to leave her home, but not with this stranger and not so sudden. She looked at the ground and then walked over to a couch and sat down.

Once sitting, Kagome fiddled with the edge of her skirt. I want to see Inuyasha, she thought. It's been so long since I last saw him. It was a long time since she last saw him, eight years to be exact. That day when he came over. "Inuyasha," she seemed to say out loud. "You mean to tell me that that little boy eight years ago was him?" Then it hit her, everything and soon she was filled with comfort at just the thought of his name. Inuyasha, she thought.

That was the name she could never remember these past eight or so years. And now that she had, she felt all warm and tingly. Kagome was smiling at just the thought of his name, but she missed him so much. "Will Inuyasha be there?" she asked, looking at Sesshoumaru with eyes so huge and showing of happiness at the sound of his little brother's name.

Jaken and Sesshoumaru both sighed at this. Only Sesshoumaru felt a little hurt by this happiness Kagome showed. "Well," he said, pausing. "Yes, my brother will be there." He was sure not to say Inuyasha's name for the happiness that she showed at the mere mention of his name.

"Well, maybe I should go," she replied happily. She sighed and looked off, up at the ceiling. "But, maybe I should think of it first." She paused, thinking of what to say.

Kagome stayed silent for five minutes before Sesshoumaru interrupted the silence. "Kagome," he said, sounding a little frustrated, "Please, please come back with us. With me." He didn't sound like he was pleading, but his eyes showed the pleading themselves.

"Lord Sesshoumaru?" Rin asked, finally speaking for once. She was pulling on the fur part of his outfit, and she began speaking again, "Can we go home, my lord? I don't like it here." She glanced around the room as she spoke the last sentence.

"I don't believe she wants to go with us," Jaken replied. "I agree with Rin on this one, me lord."

But I need her to go. Sesshoumaru wanted to say aloud. I want her to help me raise Rin into a proper young woman. Rin needs a human woman to raise her, Kagome is that woman. Sesshoumaru desperately wanted to say this to Kagome, to explain why he wnated her to come back with him. "I know," he finally sighed out. "Let's go then and give her time to think." He started towards the door.

Jaken and Rin both looked shockingly at him, then at each other. Both muttered a "what," which Sesshoumaru did n't hear. "B-but me---."

"No! We leave and give her time," Sesshoumaru interrupted Jaken in the doorway of hte house, then walked out and headed for Kagome's backyard.

"Yes, my lord," Rin said, running after him and smiling. She seemed happy to leave, but Kagome didn't mind much.

"Me Lord!" Jaken yelled and ran after the both of them.

Kagome sighed as they left. She fell flat on her back on the couch, whispering a little "Oh my God." Either she was shocked to hear of Inuyasha or scared to have a stranger want her to go with him and making that decision scared her quite a bit, also.

> > > > > > > > > > >

"Why did I mention him to her!" Sesshoumaru yelled once he was back in the Feudal Era. "Why?" he growled. He was angry, angry at the way Kagome looked at the mere mention of his younger brother's name: Inuyasha. He hated him, hated him with a fiery passion. He would have killed him, would kill him, but their father would not allow it. Neither would Inuyasha's human mother.

A half-demon, ugh! Just the mere mention of it made him sick to his stomach. How could his father betray his mother? Sesshoumaru always wondered this. 'Oh, of course. Mother died the day of my birth,' he always answered to the question.

"My Lord!" He heard Rin yell from behind him. He heard her running up towrds him, straining for breathe and not too far behind was Jaken.

Sesshoumaru let out a stiff laugh at this. He always considered it funny of how a mere human girl could always outrun o fdemon of his stature, Jaken of course. Of course, this was the only laugh that he ever got. Each and every day, but he kept it to himself. He always kepps it to himself. No one ever saw or sees this side of him, but he hoped to share it with Kagome. Someday, someday he would get her and be able to share it with her.

"Kagome, dear?" her mother said questionably. She looked nervous as hell, like she'd been to hell and back. "You're not leaving, are you?" She had tears in her eyesm and they were about to fall. "Are you?" Her tears were now falling down her cheeks. "Don't leave me like your father did, honey." She fell to her knees and laid her head in her daughter's lap. She was crying and it was keeping her from going insane.

"Mom," Kagome sighed, running her hands through her mother's hair. "I'm not going anywhere, but even if I did-----." She was cut off by her mother's sobbing, and Kagoem held her mother's haeving shoulders. "Even if I did," she continued, "I would be sure to return to my home, here with you and grandpa and Souta. And I promise that." She smiled as she said this, which cause her mother to look up and smile as well.

"Really?" her mother said, cheerfulness and joy in her voice. "I love you, honey." She got up and hugged Kagome. "I really do." She had a smile like no other and she was glad that her daughter was not leaving her like Kagome's father had done.

"But I need to see Inuyasha, mother," she said flatly with a straight, seroius face. "I really need to do this one thing, but I don't know how to get ahold of him." Kagome now had a sad expression on her face. "How?"

"Honey, I don't know," her mother daid after a long silence. "Wait until that man comes back or something." She gave a slight smile. "What do ya say?" She gave Kagome a slight shove and waited for an answer from her.

Kagome smiled, laughing, and replied, "Yea, maybe I should. Thanks Mom." She got up and headed upstairs to her room. Maybe I should wait, she told herself.

She waited and waited. Eating dinner, then laying in bed thinking. She did have a few tests the following day at school, but she didn't mind and didn't really care.

Hours seemed to pass on by, way too quickly as a matter of fact. And soon she was dreaming of Inuyasha, of what he may look like now after eight years, and of what they might do/talk about. She smiled in her sleep and hugged a pillow like it was going out of style. And sleeping was what calmed her from this afternoon's little episode. Inuyasha, she thought. Plus, that was all that she thought and dreamed of that whole entire night, until...

"Kagome!" her mother screamed the following morning, to find Kagome gone. Her daughter's bed was empty and some of her clothing happened to be gone as well.

Well, hopefully you likes! So, you'll have to wait to see what happens until the next chapter.
