Chapter 15: The Abandoned shrine

A/N: im nbot very proud of this chapter. oh and so sorry for the long wait! btw the next chapter is the last. Sorry if the chapters short.

Inuyasha had gotten over the hotel mint prank...eventually. That had been an hour earlier and half of Kagome was wishing he was still upset, it had provided some entertainment. Now, she had resorted to rolling the window up and down. Inuyasha got annoyed of that, "Kagome will you please stop you've already rolled the window up and down 167 times, it isn't going to change!"

Kagome turned her head towards Inuyasha, and she had a look of confusment on, "You kept count?" Inuyasha sighed deeply, and Kagome..well, Kagome just stared blankly at the open fields they were rapidly passing. For a while the car was quiet and it was smooth sailing, well driving technically. It was quiet until..."I'm Bored!" Kagome whined.

"we're almost there!" Inuyasha yelled.

Ten Minutes Later...

"I'm bored, are we there yet!"

"NO we are NOT there yet!"

"ok...Are we there NOW?"

"NO WE ARE NOT THERE AND WE NEVER WILL BE!"

"oh...so how about now are we there now?"

Inuyasha smacked himself in the head and let out a very deep breath. Secretly Kagome had done that to tick Inuyasha off, and boy did it work. The rest of the ride was very very quiet.

Kagome stepped out of the car and stretched. Then scanned the old shrine, the shrine was where her mom had picked her up. Infact her grandfather was the first person in her adoptive family she had met. In other words the place was very special to her. Inuyasha walked up to her and grabbed her hand.

"you ready?" he asked

Kagome took a deep breath, "Yeah" she anwsered. THen the two started walking up the steps and into the shrine. Inuyasha slid the well house door open and Kagome held her breath because of the musty smell. Moss hung off the side of the well and water dripped from the ceiling , apparently no one had been in there for a long long time. The two walked up to the well then jumped in. Both were very suprised when they met the dirt floor of the well and were still inside the well house.

"Wha-What happened!" Inuyasha asked Kagome and she just shrugged.

"Maybe it's not 'magic' anymore." she replied.

"No the well was never really magic, you only got down here because of...of ...the shikon no tama!" he yelled out

"well where do you suppose we get one of those?" Kagome asked him.

"well, i have no idea. It's proabably back in the fuedal era...Unless there's a shard in the house"

"I know there's probably one in my old room!" Kagome yelled out.

"Your're a genious!" Inuyasha shouted and kissed kagome on the forehead. Quickly Kagome and Inuyasha scrambled out of the well and were dashing towards the shrine house. Kagome was the first through the door and was flying up the stairs to her old room. Inuyasha was right behind her, as soon as both were in the room they were tearing up the room in search for the sacred jewel. drawers were flying through the air and the bed was all torn up and sadly that hadn't seen anything. Then Inuyasha had a brilliant idea, "Wait! Your're a miko right, so shouldn't you be able to see the jewel shard?"

"OH yeah i forgot about that." kagome replied and then scanned the room for the shard. "Nope not in here."

"Great now were going to have to search the whole house!" Inuyasha groaned. Kagome nodded grimly.

KAgome flopped down on the couch in the main room, she was exhausting they had checked every room except the kitchen. At least we only have one left. "Come on Kagome." Inuyasha said as he started walking towards the kitchen. Reluctantly Kagome got up and followed him. She gasped when she walked in. Right on the floor was her grandfather, and he wasn't breathing! Imeadiately she dropped down on the floor to try to help him. tears started welling up in her eyes as she realized he wasn't coming back. "Kagome, he probably had a stroke, but he's dead now theres nothing we can do. We have to keep looking for a jewel shard."

Kagome instantly stood up, "How could you say something like that! He's my grandfather and he's dead and you want me to just get over it!"She yelled.

"Woah sorry." Inuyasha grumbled and began looking for the jewel. Kagome looked at her grandfather in disbelief she didn't want to accept the fact that he was dead. suddenly a purplish glow caught her eye. The glow the was coming from a chain around her grandfather's neck. slowly she lifted the chain up and saw the jewel shard hanging off of it. "Inuyasha i found the shard!" she yelled forgetting she was mad at him.

"Yes!" Inuyasha shouted and pumped a fist into the air. Quickly he ran over to Kagome and drug her to the well house. "THis is it kagome your're gonna go see your friends" he said to her.

"Yeah it's great." she whispered.

Inuyasha lifted her chin up to his."You'll be fine."

Kagome flung her arms around him, "I don't want this to be the last time i see you." she sobbed.

Inuyasha lifted her head up again and kissed her on the lips. "You're always going to see me. I'm just another side of Inuyasha remember."

"Yeah" she whispered. Inuyasha took her into the well, and she was overcome with the feeling of floating. as soon as she was getting used to it the feeling stopped and she was met with solid ground. She opened her eyes and was greeted with bright sunlight. I'm really here in the fuedal era!
