Sango and Miroku walked back to the camp site after cleaning up. Kirara and Shippo were already

asleep. Sango couldn't stop smiling. She had always hoped that her first time would be special, and with

someone that she loved, and it was. She desperately loved Miroku, and he had been so gentle with her, how

could it not have been special. This of course was Miroku's first time as well, and he thought the same thing that

Sango had thought. It was indeed a special moment, and now there would forever be a wonderful bond

between the two of them. Sango layed down in her sleeping bag and was soon joined by Miroku, who drapped

his arm acrossed her waist, before falling asleep. Sango smiled and fell asleep against his chest.

Inuyasha woke in the morning to find that Kagome was still asleep. He gently kissed and nuzzled her

untill she woke. When she woke up she gave Inuyasha a deep long kiss, and smiled at him, before getting up

and motioning for him to follow her into the shower. He didn't hestitate for a second, and ran to the bathroom

at her side. Kagome giggled and turned on the shower, and undressed. Inuyasha did the same. Their shower

was quite steamy, and when they got out Kagome was sore, and Inuyasha was exhausted. They had to go back

to the fudal era today. Inuyasha and Kagome got dressed and then packed Kagome's bag. They said

goodbye to her family, and then jumped down the well. The blue light of time travel once again appeared, and

they were in the fudal era.

Sango and Miroku had known that Inuyasha and Kagome would be coming back today and so they

waited by the well. Inuyasha jumped out of the well with Kagome in his arms, and he smiled at the two by the

well, something he never did. Sango imediately knew that Inuyasha had made Kagome his mate, and Inuyasha

could smell Miroku all over Sango, and vise versa, so of course he knew that they had made love. Kagome

was her normal cheery self, and she smiled, and said " so did anything happen while we were away?" and she

gave Sango a little playfull wink as Inuyasha set her on the ground. Inuyasha gave her a quick kiss on the cheek

and then looked to Sango and Miroku for answers. Sango knew what they wanted to hear but she was a little

embarassed to say it.

Sango shuffled her feet in embarassment and looked at Miroku to save her. He smiled and changed the

subject. " Kagome?...did anything happen between you two while you were away?" Miroku said, lifting one

eyebrow in curiosity, even though he already knew the answer. Kagome blushed and then said " umm...so

have you guys ate yet..no ok...i brought food." She ran over to her bag and pulled out cups of ramen and put

them over the fire. Miroku and Sango laughed because they hadn't even answered her. Inuyasha helped her cook

the ramen, accationaly giving her an affectionate nuzzle, which made her laugh. Sango watched the couple with

a bright smile on her face. They were finally together, and it made her happier then she had ever felt to see her

best friend...no her sister so happy.

Sango was sitting under the cherry blossom tree and she was being showered in little pink and white

flowers, which floated off of the tree every few minutes. Eventually Miroku walked over to her and smiled a

gorgeous smile and he sat down next to her, and eventually he layed his head in her lap and caught the little

flowers and gave them to Sango, who giggled. Kagome smiled and gave a thoughtful look in the direction of

Sango. " Food's done." Kagome said cheerfully. Sango and Miroku walked over to the fire and ate, as did

Inuyasha and Kagome. When they were done they spent most of the day catching up on everything that had

happened this past week. Before they were done talking Inuyasha stood up suddenly and looked at Kagome,

she imediately knew where he was going, because she sensed Kikyo near. She asked if Inuyasha wanted her

to come with him, but he said no, and so she stayed.

Inuyasha entered the clearing, where Kikyo waited for him. " Inuyasha I knew you would come." Kikyo

never smiled and so she didn't now. " What do you want Kikyo!" Inuyasha said with a smirk on his face. Kikyo

looked at him and said " are you coming to hell with me Inuyasha?" Inuyasha looked her right in the eye and

said " I probably would have about 2 years ago...but that was before I met Kagome...She is my mate now, and

we will make a family together someday, and destroy Naraku." " I will not go to hell with you Kikyo, but I will

avenge your death, because it was my fault, and I will let your soul rest in peace." Inuyasha said flatly, and he

began to walk away from her, but she lunged at him with hatred in her eyes. She had her bow and arrow out

and ready, but Inuyasha was to quick for her, and she nearly fell. Inuyasha broke her bow in half and said, "I

want you to leave Kagome, my family, and me alone from now on Kikyo." and he walked away, leaving her by

herself.

Kikyo stared in disbelief at Inuyasha's retreating back. " did that just happen?" she asked herself

Kikyo looked pathetic laying on the ground next to her broken bow and arrow. She had a look of betrayal and

hatred on her face. She walked out of the clearing swearing to kill Inuyasha if it was the last thing she did.

Inuyasha came back to the others and gave Kagome a little kiss. "What happened Inuyasha?" Kagome asked

with a worried look on her face. Inuyasha smiled and said "I told her to leave my family and friends alone...

forever." Kagome was relieved and she gave Inuyasha a tight hug, and a passionate kiss and whispered

"I love you Inuyasha." she playfully tugged on one of his ears. Inuyasha smiled at her and said "I love you too

Kagome." he sat down and pulled her into his lap, and sighed contently.

The next morning the Inu-group set out to search for Naraku once again. Kagome was on Inuyasha's

back, and Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were all riding on Kirara. Kagome whispered to Inuyasha "I can sense

Kikyo." Inuyasha's eyes grew wide and he took off with Kagome on his back, in the direction that Kagome had

pointed. It didn't take long to find a very angry Kikyo waiting for the two of them in a small meadow. Kagome

hopped off of Inuyasha's back and looked at Kikyo with the same look she always gave her, sadness. She

felt bad for Kikyo, always having to wander the earth alone. Kikyo began laughing hysterically, and she

screamed "DIE INUYASHA!...and take your witch with you!" She readied her bow, and fired an arrow,

Kagome fired her arrow and it intersected with Kikyo's, both arrows split in half and fell the the ground. Kagome

glared and said "who are you callin a witch?"

Kagome fired another arrow just before Kikyo. Inuyasha sensing that his mate was in grave danger,

shot the wind scar straight at Kikyo, and he yelled "DIE!" a high pitched scream echoed through the air, as

Kikyo's remains were blown away by the wind. Inuyasha didn't feel anything at all, I was only infatuated with

her, not in love, i love Kagome. Inuyasha thought to himself. Kagome walked to his side and whispered

"S...she's really g..gone." she was shocked, she held no grudge against Kikyo, and yet she was happy.

Inuyasha hugged her tight and said "yeah...she is...she can rest in peace now...her soul is at rest." Kagome

nuzzled against his chest, as they walked off together, completly in love.
