So am I doing a good job updating?

Toshi carried Kagome on his slick back. He was getting bigger, much bigger. Sea dragons grew fast, so it was no surprise. He was the size of a horse. They surfaced and the breeze was light. It wouldn't take long to reach the shore now, Toshi was fast. Toshi was faster than a race horse. He jumped out of the air and Kagome left out an excited scream.

"I can see it!" she yelled. "Land!" Toshi made a low rumbling noise of happiness. Kagome stroked his scaly neck. The greenness glittered from the sunlight. Toshi dove back down and flew threw the water, like it was nothing. Kagome squinted her eyes from the speed, but smiled all the same.

He jumped out of the water, and Kagome pushed off of him with a happy yelp of joy, soaring over 6 feet high. She dove back down, making a small splash. Toshi swam under her again and lifted her up. Then Kagome heard a sound. "Shh. . . ." she whispered. Her hearing was much greater than before. "I can hear Toki!"

Toki was collecting shells by the shore, where the water was shallow enough to walk. But, of course, neither of them had legs. "Toki!" she called out and waved her arms.

Inuyasha's ears flicked. Kagome? He lept out of the tree and walked over to the shore. "Kagome!"

But then something he didn't expect happen. Another girl was sitting peacefully in the water. "Kagome!" she called out in response. She smiled brightly. "Toki!" Kagome smiled again. Kagome dove back down.

She popped up next to the girl and knocked her over in a hug. The other girl embraced her tightly. "Toki I missed you these past few days. Have you met Toshi?" she said. Referring to the dragon.

Toshi walked out of the water, the very earth trembled as he stepped. He shook the water off his scales and licked Kagome's cheek.

Inuyasha's ears dropped. Had he been replaced. I waited so long, only to find that sh really doesn't need me anymore.

A big wave came and pushed the girls onto the sandy shore. They both giggled. Kagome lied down on her stomach and flicked her tail back and forth above her head. "Toki I need a favor," she said. "Ok," said Toki, who was in the same position as Kagome. Toshi lied down next to Kagome and rested his head on his massive paws.

"I told you I would have to leave once I reached shore," she started. "I know," said Toki sadly. "I did not forget," Toki added. "But can you still sing me a song?" Toki smiled. "Of course I will Kagome! But I'm going to miss you." "Me too Toki. I want you to take care of Toshi."

Toshi lifted his head up at the sound of his name. He made a low rumbling noise in his throat, upset that she was leaving him. "You both mean so much to me, I want you guys to be there for each other since I can't be."

Toki nodded. "I understand." She sat upright, Kagome did the same. "Do you want to hear my song?" Kagome nodded. "All right then."

"I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you:

Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good."

Then Kagome felt something she had never felt before. She knew the rest of the song! Though she had never heard it, it was clear to her. Toki stopped singing, waiting for Kagome to finish the two person song.

"It well may be
That we will never meet againIn this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend:
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you:

Toki sang the next line.

"Because I knew you."

Kagome smiled and they sang the next part together.

"I have been changed for good."

Toki's eyes softened at the next part she sang.

"And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done, you blame me for"

Kagome's smiled faded, into a solemn look. Her part was next.

"But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share"

Then they both came in together again.

"And none of it seems to matter anymore

Like a comet pulled/ Like a ship blown
From orbit as it /Off it's mooring
Passes a sun, like /By a wind off the
A stream that meets/ Sea, like a seed
A boulder, half-way /Dropped by a
Through the wood /Bird in the wood

Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better."

Kagome smiled.

"But because I knew you."

Toki smiled too.

"Because I knew you."

Then the last line was sung together again.

"Because I knew you,

I have been changed for good."

Tears welled up in both the girl's eyes. They embraced each other with tears streaming down their faces.

Kagome's body slowly started to glow a pink purple color. A bright light flashed and Kagome was back into her normal angel form. Her wing flicked.

"I knew there was something different about you!" exclaimed Toki. Kagome stood up. "I have to go Toki. But first I want you to meet someone, but I don't know where he is." Inuyasha lept down next to her. "Feh, looking for me wench?" he said. "Inuyasha!" she exclaimed and launched herself into his arms, nearly knocking him over. "I missed you so much!" she said, snuggling closer to him. "Yeah, yeah, I missed you too wench," he said with a smug grin on his face.

"Inuyasha this is toki. Toki this is Inuyasha," she introduced. "Hold on. You're an angel, and he's a hanyou? How did you ever meet?" "I don't think that's the important part about it," she smiled. Toshi stood up and walked over to Kagome, licking her cheek. "Toki will be the best friend you can have," she said softly and kissed him on the nose. "Thank you for your help, both of you," she turned to Toki at the last part. Toshi licked her again, and then crept back into the sea.

"I think it's time for us to go," said Toki sadly. "I'll never forget you," said Kagome. She leaned down one last time to give Toki a hug. Toki swam back into the deeper part of the sea. She waved one last time, and then disappeared under water.

"I was beginning to think I'd never see you again," Inuyasha said in a serious voice. "Don't worry," smiled Kagome.

"We will always to be together."

That was a good size chapter. A tiny bit of fluff in the end, no?
