10th chapter is up, as you can see, and it is really long. Well, here it is.

The New Kagome and Some Shocking History

In the middle of the night, Inuyasha woke up to a new smell and to him, it wasn't a good sign. He looked down to check on Kagome. What he saw was very much not what he wanted to see. He proceeded to jump down and stared at her until she woke up.

Kagome opened her eyes and saw Inuyasha staring at her, "Ah! Don't scare me like that Inuyasha! What were you doing staring at me in the first place?"

He got up and grabbed her by the wrist to pull her with him.

"Follow me," he growled.

He sniffed the air and took off running in the direction of the water.

"Inuyasha, wait for me!" Kagome called as she started to run after Inuyasha.

After about a minute, she had caught up with him and was right behind him so she wouldn't make a wrong turn.

"Um… Inuyasha, how am I keeping up with you?" Kagome asked even though she thought he didn't know the answer. She was wrong.

Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks which made Kagome have to jump over his form to keep from running into him.

"That's strange," Inuyasha mumbled.

"Inuyasha, what's going on? Why are you acting like this and why am I very athletic all of the sudden?" Kagome pleaded for an answer.

"If you want to find out, just do what I tell you. Now show me your hands," he ordered.

Kagome raised her hand and gawked at them. Her nails were long and sharp like Inuyasha's.

"Let's go," Inuyasha continued.

Inuyasha took off jumping now that he knew she could do almost everything he could. Kagome followed obediently. They arrived at a small pond shortly after.

"Take a look," Inuyasha sighed and held his breath as she walked over to the pond.

When she saw herself, she screamed. She now had silver eyes, and silver ears. Her hair, that used to be raven black, was now black with a hint of silver. The rest of the night, Kagome sat at the edge of the pond just looking at herself. Every once in a while she would ask Inuyasha a question but other than that they said nothing else.

When the sun was about an hour into the sky, Kagome stood up and called Inuyasha over, "Inuyasha, I need to go home and show my family what's happened to me. I'll be back in a few days; until then don't tell the others what happened. I want to tell them myself."

"You make being a half-demon sound like being a bad thing," Inuyasha frowned.

"It's not that. It's just that I just got transformed into a demon after being a human for 15 years! You know; it's just a real shock for me. That's all," she replied.

She looked around, and then sighed, "Which way is the bone eaters well?"

"I'll take you. I don't feel safe that you're going by yourself anyway, even if you're a half-demon now, you still don't now how to handle your new found strength or anything." Inuyasha picked Kagome up and carried her off to the well.

As they reached the village where the bone eater's well was located, Kaede was walking out of the hut. Kagome signaled for Inuyasha to go down. They landed and walked over to Kaede.

"Hello Kaede!" Kagome greeted.

"Well hello where are the others?" Kaede asked startled by their sudden appearance, "My old eyes must be playing tricks on me but ye look different. Ye look to be a half-demon now."

"They aren't deceiving you," Kagome said sadly

"Oh! How did this happen?" Kaede gasped.

"I'll explain later. I just want to get out of here," Kagome whined as she heard people moving around in the hut that was next to Kaede's.

She ran to the well and jump in. Before she was in the well, she was stopped by a firm grip on her arm. She gazed into Inuyasha's eyes wishing that she could stay with him longer.

"What do you think you're doing?" he asked still gripping her arm gentle enough not to hurt her, but strong enough to keep her there.

"I'm going home, you even agreed to it. Why won't you let me go now?"

"I'll let you go on one condition."

"And what would that be?"

"I come with you."

"You can't do that."

"Why not?"

"Because someone will see you."

At this Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, "Oh and like you'll be going out."

"Oh yeah, I forgot, this is why I need to go. If I don't I'll keep thinking that I'm still human. And do this every time. Besides, after this, I won't be able to go to school or any of that so I need to go and say goodbye to my family." Inuyasha saw tears starting to form in her eyes.

"I just want to go with you, because last time you went through the well you were kidnapped by Naraku."

"Okay, but we both have to stay at the house."

They jumped in the well at the same time. As they were climbing out, Kagome sensed her mom. She poked her head out of the well to see where her mom was. She was standing almost directly in front of them. Inuyasha was the first to step out, and greeted Nisume.

"Hello Inuyasha. Is Kagome still in there?"

"Yes. Come on Kagome! Hurry up! It's not like you have the back pack thing!" he yelled.

Kagome slowly walked out. Nisume gasped.

"What happened?"

"Well it's sort of a long story."

"Let's get you inside," Nisume suggested as she dropped the broom she was using and wrapped an arm around Kagome's shoulders. As they entered, Sota ran into the entry way.

"Kagome! You're back! Is Inuyasha with you?" He reached the entryway just as he was saying the last word and made it longer as he saw her.

"Hey Sota," Kagome hugged her brother.

"What happened?" he asked.

"We don't know, but I have a pretty good idea." She replied.

"I think it's pretty obvious." Inuyasha muttered.

"Hey mom, got any food?" Kagome smiled innocently.

"I think I can cook up something." She answered, "You go on up to your room and wait. Sota don't even think of going up there," She added as she scolded Sota.

The two walked up to her room and sat down on the bed.

"This is just too weird. It's as if my mom knew this would happen someday. Did you see how calm she was? Sota and Kaede were shocked and I don't know what you were feeling," she sighed as she laid her forehead on Inuyasha's shoulder and closed her eyes.

Inuyasha looked down at Kagome and simply said "The reason she was so calm is because she loves, and forever will love you, no matter what."

"Is that so?" Kagome asked in a voice just above an audible level.

Before Inuyasha could reply, Kagome fell asleep. Her head slipped from his shoulder to his lap. Inuyasha closed his eyes and listened to some mockingbirds singing outside the window. He soon fell asleep as well.

Twenty minutes flew by. Kagome woke first and realized she was lying on Inuyasha's lap. She lifted her head and looked at Inuyasha. His face was as relaxed. His eyes slowly opened and he looked startled for a minute when he looked at Kagome, then his eyes focused and he yawned.

"That's the first decent sleep I've had in forever," he continued yawning.

"Let's go down and see if my mom is done cooking," Kagome suggested.

They slowly walked down the stairs and went into the kitchen.

"What time is it?" Kagome questioned.

"About ten," Sota informed, "You were asleep for about twenty minutes."

"Oh, so you were spying on us, you brat." Kagome seethed.

"What? It's not like you were doing anything inappropriate. You were just sleeping that's all," Sota tried to weasel his way out of this predicament.

"If only you had the sacred beads on I would sit you right now," Kagome grumbled.

"Uh...Kagome, aren't I supposed to be falling to the ground right about now?" Inuyasha asked as he held up the necklace so she could see it easier.

He tugged on it but it still wouldn't come off. "Damn, I was hoping that it would come off now."

"Um… sit?" Kagome said. Nothing happened. "Wow, that's strange. It should still work. I mean, I still am Kagome Higurashi, aren't I?"

Nisume sighed, "Kagome follow me. I want to show you something that might answer some of your questions. You two stay here. This is something only Kagome would understand," she said to the two guys.

Kagome walked behind her mom. Eventually, she led her to a room that Kagome had been told about but was never allowed to enter. Kagome stopped before she entered.

"It's okay. I'm asking you to enter. Now come," Nisume assured Kagome. "Close the door. I don't think even Inuyasha could here us even with his ear to the door. This room is sound proof."

Nisume pulled out three scrolls and two cushions. She set the pillows down in front of a low table and sat down on the one on the left while Kagome sat on the one on the right.

"This is our ancestors from my side of the family," she said as she unrolled the first scroll. "You can't tell anyone about what am about to tell you, especially Inuyasha. If you do, we might not exist. It is of the future and past at the same time."

"Can we just get on with it? This room gives me the creeps," Kagome pleaded.

"Yes, but I'm just trying to make sure you understand how important it is to not tell anyone about this. First, look at your great, well I'm not going to go all the way through the greats but it's a lot of greats. Look at these two."

"That looks just like Inuyasha and me! How I am now at least." Kagome stated.

"Very good. I didn't think you could recognize them. These scrolls are so dirty and worn. But yes that's you and Inuyasha."

"But that means… oh my gosh. That means…" Kagome gasped.

"Yes, you will marry and have children."

Kagome shifted her position on the pillow.

"Are you uncomfortable talking about this?" Nisume asked.

"No, I'm fine. Go on," Kagome closed her eyes.

She reopened them and looked on to see who else she knew was on there.

"It's Sango and Miroku! Yay! That means I finally succeed at getting them together!"

"I never noticed them. Oh it says here he dies of natural causes, and you did tell me that he had a void in his hand that would someday kill him?"

"Yes and the only way to lift it are to kill Naraku. Yay! This is a happy day! Okay maybe turning into a half demon made it a bit worse but still I'm finding out loads of helpful info!"

"Kagome don't forget you promised not to tell anyone about this."

"I know"

With Inuyasha and Sota

"What's taking them so long?" Sota wondered.

"How should I know? I don't understand humans one bit." Inuyasha replied dully.

"Want to play rock, paper, scissors to pass the time?"

"Why not? I got nothing better to do."

Sota and Inuyasha sat down and started playing the obnoxiously stupid hand game.

"Hey let's bet for a cup of ramen!" Sota exclaimed.

Gramps walked in and glowered at Inuyasha.

"What are you doing here?" he asked ever so rudely.

"It's because of Kagome." He simply replied.

Gramps left the room and the other two continued on.

With Kagome

"Kagome since you and Inuyasha have children, automatically they have demon blood in them until the percentage is so small that you don't have any signs that show you have demon blood in you. Now this is the part I'm not sure of. Which Kagome came first? The one that travels back in time and has demon blood or the one that is the ancestor of the traveler. It's like the chicken and the egg question: which came first? The chicken or the egg? In years to pass, you will become the ancestor."

"I'm sooo… confused."

"It is confusing, I guess. What I'm trying to say is that you had demon blood in you all along. It was just never showing itself."

"Wow, this is overwhelming."

"Shall we go then? I don't want the cake to burn."

"Did you say cake?"

"Yep."

"Let's go, I'll put the pillows up you put up the scrolls up."

They left the room and Nisume locked the door.

"Don't even think about breaking in here and looking at anything else or I'll have your head," Nisume warned.

"So did you know this would happen someday?" Kagome asked cautiously.

"Well we did wonder why there was a man whose name meant dog demon in the records, but after your 15th birthday, we automatically understood. That's why Gramps tried to seal the well. He was outraged by you-know-what. I was calm about this and studied the scrolls figuring out that this would happen to you."

"Wow!"

They walked into the kitchen and burst out laughing. Inuyasha and Sota were playing thumb wars with each other. Gramps was over in the corner plugging his ears. Kagome was out of grandpa's sight so he didn't see her ears.

"I had to watch this one to make sure he didn't do anything inappropriate," he yelled and walked around Inuyasha and Sota. When he saw Kagome, his face turned red, and he looked as if he were going to have a heart attack any second.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY GRANDDAUGHTER!" he yelled as he grabbed a broom and started smacking Inuyasha with it.

"He didn't do it! Stop!" Kagome yelled as she had to drag Inuyasha to the well to keep him from getting pulverized by the broom. "You go on. I have to explain things, and I can't have gramps beating you up in the middle of it."

He looked at her with a concerned look on his face.

"I'll be fine. Go on. I won't be staying over night. Get the others to the village and explain the destiny and all that junk to Kaede. Just leave out the part about me, if you know what I mean."

With a slight push, Inuyasha was at the bottom of the well and then gone.

"There I know he's safe. At least until he gets impatient like always, and comes to get me."

Kagome sadly walked to her house for the last time.

After four hours of explaining her stories, (including the Tamas) Kagome said her goodbyes and walked to the well. Before she was halfway there, she started crying and hesitated before she went inside the well house. After a few minutes of standing there, Kagome slowly slid the doors open and walked inside. Once she opened the door, she was immediately hit by the scent of Inuyasha.

"I see that you did come to get me, in a way." She smirked and jumped in the well. Inuyasha followed.

The two climbed out of the well and headed to the village.

Before they got there, Inuyasha interrupted the silence, "We start your training tomorrow."

"What training?" Kagome asked even though she already knew the answer.

"Well lets see um claws, stronger muscles, and it would be best if you had another weapon other than just that bow so that you can do hand to hand combat. Oh, and if you didn't notice you don't have fangs like me."

Kagome moved her tongue around in her mouth and felt normal old human teeth. "You're right."

They walked on in silence. They were greeted by Kaede when they got to the village.

"I told you to go get the others, you dimwit." Kagome scowled at Inuyasha.

"I did!" Was his innocent reply.

They walked into the hut and silence fell over everyone.

Kimi leaned over to Ema and whispered, "I guess she is not a normal half-demon."

"No," Ema whispered back.

"Care to explain to us why you are a half-demon all of a sudden?" Sango asked.

She spent another two hours explaining all of it again. Of course as she promised she didn't say a word about her and Inuyasha, and all the other stuff.

"Geez my neck hurts, your grandpa is brutal." Inuyasha whined as he rubbed the back of his neck.

Kagome glared at him and he just looked back at her with a what-are-you-going-to-do-to-me look.

"Sit."

Nothing happened.

"Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit!"

"Remember it doesn't work anymore, so ha." Inuyasha pointed at Kagome and had a look of triumph on his face.

"You forget that I can do it manually now." Kagome said as she hit him on the forehead.

"Ow! That hurt! I much rather prefer sit than this." Inuyasha yelled as he rubbed his forehead.

"If I had known that that hurt more, I would have done it a long time ago." Kagome retorted.

"This is an interesting combination," Sango stated

"For once it's not me getting hit!" Shippo yelled with glee.

Inuyasha ran from Kagome as she chased him to make him apologizing for the insult he made. Later that night, they set out again. Kagome had borrowed clothes that were just like Kaede's. Inuyasha didn't like this at all. They went along and Kagome realized that she didn't have her bike. For some odd reason, she was in a very happy mood and didn't care about her bike or the food she had brought from home. When they settled at a field and sat down to eat, Inuyasha actually admitted that he missed ramen and all that other stuff Kagome had cooked before. Kagome lie in the grass and looked up at the stars.

"They're beautiful," She whispered as if the slightest noise might scare them away.

Inuyasha came and sat by her. Everyone else had fallen asleep so it was just Inuyasha and Kagome now.

"Sure if you like little shiny things that disturb the sky," Inuyasha joked.

"That's exactly why I like them! Don't make fun of the stars!" she said as she sat up. "I can never see them back home."

There was a silence and then Kagome started to cry. She leaned against Inuyasha and said, "I miss them already Inuyasha."

"What? Are we not good enough for you?" he tried to comfort her, but was doing a lousy job.

"It's just that I spent all my life with them, and I'm more attached to them than I am to you guys."

This was the last thing Inuyasha wanted to hear, but nonetheless he continued to try and comfort her.

"You'll get used to it," he mumbled. "Don't forget that we have training tomorrow." He looked down at Kagome, and her eyes were closed.

"I am not asleep," She commented dully.

Kagome lifted her head and wiped the tears from her eyes. Inuyasha lie back on the grass and fell asleep while Kagome lie down, still wide awake.

"My first night as a half-demon and I can't even get to sleep. Everyone else is asleep."

She rolled over on her side and heard running water.

"A stream!" Kagome got up and ran to the stream she heard.

When she arrived, she got undressed and got in. The water was just the right temperature, and it was crystal clear. When she looked at her reflection, she sighed for she had forgotten she was now a half-demon. After she finished, she redressed and started back to camp. As she reached the edge of the forest she had been in, Myoga jumped down from a branch and landed on Kagome's shoulder.

"Nice to see you again Master Inuyasha," He said before he turned around to look at the person whose shoulder he was riding on.

"I'm not Inuyasha, but close enough." Kagome smiled.

Mioga turned around and just stood there gawking at Kagome.

"Well then, this is new. When did this happen?" he asked.

"Last night." Was her reply.

"Oh."

"Hey, do you know what Inuyasha means by training?" Kagome asked.

"Oh no."

"What?"

Kagome stopped running and jumped up in a tree. Mioga leapt off and sat on a twig next to her.

"Well, if he means his way of training, you would be dead tired after it."

"Wait. He's trained someone before?"

"Yes, when he was about 25 I do believe, we came across a young demon girl whose parents and sister had been killed. She was about 6. She had no one to turn to. Inuyasha felt sorry for her, knowing how she felt and all. We took care of her for about two to four months and in that time; Inuyasha trained her so she could survive on her own. It was almost sad to see him train her. He was so brutal that by time night had fallen, she had at least ten bruises from that day's session. I don't know her name and Inuyasha will surely not remember any of this. He trained her well though. She was actually strong enough that she could probably beat Sesshomaru."

"I start tomorrow."

"Then you need to get back to camp immediately, or you will be tired before you even start! Quickly now!"

Kagome jumped down and ran as fast as she could back to camp. When she got there, Inuyasha was sitting up and had his arms crossed.

"Where have you been?" he growled.

"I couldn't sleep so I went and had a swim in the stream," She replied.

"Hello master," Myoga said as he emerged from behind Kagome's left ear.

"Good evening Myoga. I do presume that you weren't with her the whole time?" Inuyasha raised an eyebrow.

"No I wasn't. As she was coming back, I actually thought she was you." the flee sighed.

"Is Kagome's blood tastier now?" Inuyasha smirked.

Kagome just walked over and hit Inuyasha on the head again.

"Why didn't you sit him?" Mioga asked.

"It doesn't work anymore. Although I would much rather prefer her sitting me than hitting me. Ow!" he whined.

"Uh, I am so tired," Kagome yawned.

"Well, too bad; training starts now." Inuyasha commented.

"But I haven't had any sleep!" Kagome complained.

"We have to go somewhere where we won't be bothered," Inuyasha said, ignoring the fact that Kagome hadn't had any sleep, he took off in the direction of the stream Kagome was at before.

"I will come too; to make sure he doesn't go too hard on her," Myoga muttered.

They came to the stream, and Inuyasha broke some long branches off of some trees. They were the perfect size for staffs. Out of no where, Inuyasha just lunged at Kagome with his stick ready to strike her as if she were any other demon.

This is my longest chapter ever, so I'm really excited, and proud of myself.
