Chapter One: Never Forgotten
The alarm clock went off as it's hand struck on 7 . The sound was loud and annoying. Kagome quickly got up and pressed the button at the top of the clock,making the alarm turn off. She sat there in her bed and sighed. Then she slowly stood up and made her way to the bathroom. After getting dressed and making her bed she walked downstairs and sat at the dining table and awaited her breakfast. Her mother was looking as happy as she ever was when she made her way towards Kagome with a plate of freshly made pancakes. " Eat up dear." She said with a smile on her face. " Today is a big day for you isnt it Kagome?" Her mother asked while she took a seat at the table. " I guess so. " Kagome replied in a soft voice. " Im so happy that you're willing to attend a public school again. You can finally go and make new friends, rather then study at home with home schooling like you did for the past year. " Kagome looked at her mother's hopeful face and couldnt help but smile. " Yeah... I guess so.." After finishing her plate Kagome cleaned her dish and bade goodbye to her family as she made her way towards the front door. While she was putting her shoes on her mother came over and hugged her and whispered, "Are you sure you want to go through with this? I know its been hard on you, but please, try to get over what cannot be changed. " She looked at her mother and hugged her back. " Dont worry, Im fine now. You always said that I was a strong person." Her mother smiled at her as she left through the door.
It had been a whole year since she hadnt been able to go through the well. It was hard for her to accept the fact that she could never see Inuyasha and the others again. The pain was unbearable for the first few months. She often fell into a great depression, locking herself in her room and waiting by the window. Praying that Inuyasha would come and ask her to go back with him to the other side. She waited, and waited, but he never came. Kagome often cried herself to sleep at night and often wondered if she was having a nightmare. A nightmare that she wanted to wake from. A nightmare that was actually reality. At one point she became bedridden and had to leave school and study at home. As time passed she gradually accepted the fact that Inuyasha was never going to come and get her or that she would ever see his face again. Even though she had accepted that fact, she couldnt get his burning image out of her mind. She could not forget him even though she had tried greatly. It was already too late and she knew it as well. Kagome had given Inuyasha her heart and soul and there was nothing that could change that. She had decided there would never be any other man that could make her feel how she felt for Inuyasha. She had lost the one person she truely loved forever.
Kagome was not all that excited about entering highschool or about the fact that it would be her first time being with other people of her age since she left middle school. She hoped that school wouldnt be so diffcult although she knew it would since she already missed the first semester. As she approached the school she heard a girl scream and then a loud smack. Looking to the direction of the sound she saw a young girl with long black her tied up in a ponytail. Kagome gasped and she felt as if her body was holding in her breath as the young girl turned around. "San..go..?" Kagome whispered. The girl looked exactly like Sango, every aspect of her was just like Sango. "Could this be Sango's reincarnation?" Kagome thought to herself as she continued to stare at the laughable scene. It turns out that the young girl who looks just like Sango had slapped another student. A male student matter of factly. He had black hair and a small ponytail that was tied at the nape of his neck. "That must be Miroku's reincarnation..." Kagome thought while taking in a deep breath. Kagome couldnt help but feel over joyed to see some familiar faces but at the same time she felt a pain in her heart. " They certainly look just like them... from 500 years ago... but... they are not them... Kagome's thoughts were soon interrupted when the young girl repeatedly said hello. "Hey are you listening to me? Whats wrong with you?" The young girl asked. Coming back from deep thought Kagome looked a bit surprized and tried to sound as calm as possible. " Oh im sorry. Im Kagome, Im new here." "Oh,Im Sango. Its a pleasure to meet you." "And I am MIroku. Its a pleasure to meet you as well." The young man said with a hand mark on his face that was still visible as he moved beside Sango. "Um... Its nice to meet you too." Kagome said with a smile. " Is it a coincidence that they have the same name? " Kagome thought to herself as all three walked into the school building. "So what class are you in?" Sango asked. " Room A-2" Kagome looked around at the doors and then back at Sango. " Oh I have that class!" Miroku exclaimed with a smile. " We can walk to class together! " Kagome then smiled nervously, " Um.. yeah. Great." The school bell rang and the students scattered to class. Sango left them and Miroku led the way. " So, Is Sango your girlfriend?" Kagome found herself asking Miroku. "Well, she is a girl and my friend, but thats all there is..." His response was reasonable but she caught a hint of sadness in his tone of voice. "Well here we are." The door slid open and the class was full of students talking and students throwing paper airplanes. Kagome took a seat by the window and began to think about him again. "I miss you..." She whispered softly, still gazing out at the sky. "Are you ok?" Kagome turned around quickly and smiled. " No Im...fine..." She felt the words slowly roll off her tongue and found herself hypnotized by a set of amber glowing eyes. "You must be new here since I've never seen you around. Im Inuko. Whats your name?" His voice seemed to echo in her head. "Im.. Kagome.." She said hesitantly. She couldnt believe what she was seeing. Once again her thoughts told her it was not him."He looks like him... but he isnt the one you fell in love with..." Her heart cringed and she felt a jabbing pain. However her facial expression did not show it. Soon class started and she found herself unable to focus on her schoolwork. She couldnt help but stare at him. He looked so much like Inuyasha. Although Inuko did resemble Inuyasha his behavior was definitly different and his appearance was a bit different as well. Inuyasha was strong-willed, short-tempered,insensitive at times, stubburn, and not to mention rude. But he was also caring, gentle, and protective. Inuko however was polite and friendly. Something that definitly assured Kagome that it was not him. "Its only his reincarnation." She thought sadly.Inuko had the same face structure and body build, and even the long hair.But it wasnt silver, it was black and tied back at the nape of his neck. He didnt have the cute dog ears like Inuyasha or the sharp claws. Still she never truely gave up on the hope that Inuyasha really would come back to her.
Soon class ended and everyone was leaving class to go to break. Kagome just sat there at her desk with her arms folded and her head lying on them. She then noticed Inuko standing in front of her desk. She looked up at him not sure of how she should react. He smiled at her and left a small piece of paper on her desk as he left class."Nani..?" She whispered to herself as she took the paper into her hands and read its content."Meet me at the big tree by the gym after school. Its important."What could be so important? Kagome was terribly confused at Inuko's gesture and didnt know if she should or shouldnt go. The whole day she thought about it and still didnt know what to do. The end of the school day was nearing and she had to decide. "I guess I'll go." She thought to herself as the school bell rang telling the students that it was time to go home. Kagome slowly walked out of class and made her way towards the gym. There by the big tree next to the tennis court she saw him waiting for her. She walked over to him slowly and couldnt help but feel a bit nervous. " So you wanted to see me?" She asked. He smiled at her and took a step towards her. " Yeah.." "About what actually?" He looked up at the sky and sighed. " This may seem a bit awkward but I need you..." Before he could finish his sentence a voice screamed "INUKO!" From behind Kagome. Inuko's eyes widen and his face showed his annoyance towards the owner of the voice. Kagome did feel awkward. She then felt one of his arms around her waist as he pulled her close to his body. His other hand gently caressed her cheeks. "What are you..." Her words were then muffled under the contact of their lips. His kiss was aggressive yet gentle at the same time. She could feel her body melting in his arms. "STOP!" Her inner voice screamed at her. She then placed her hand against his chest and tired to push away from him but only managed to break the kiss. Kagome looked up at him but he was staring at somewhere else. Finally he turned his gaze down at the girl in his arms. He felt a lump in his throat as he looked into her eyes. Her eyes that seemed to swallow him whole. He saw the formation of her tears and realized that was he did was reckless. She was crying now, but softly. Inuko didnt know what to say or how to console her. He was not use to comforting other people. "Im sorry." He said in a sincere voice, but she did not stop crying. "Why?...why..." The words fall out of her mouth softly as she broke lose from his hold. " Im sorry." He repeated. She quickly ran away from him and headed for home. Inuko stood there motionless as he watched her figure dissappear out of view. His heart sank and his head started to pound violently. He placed his hand at his temples, gently rubbing them. Hoping the pain would go away."Inuko!" Miroku shouted as he ran by to Inuko's side. "Did you take your medicine?" He asked.
Kagome wiped her tears as she arrived home. She didint want anyone to know she was crying, especially her mother. "Mama,grandpa, Souta... Im home!" She shouted with a fake smile on her face. Her mother then appeared from the kitchen and went to hug her. " So how was school Kagome?" She thought about how she met Sango and the others and about the kiss. She felt as if her heart was ripping and her eyes holding back an ocean of tears. "It was fine." She lied. Afterwards she went up to her bedroom and locked her door. Kneeling by her bed she slipped her hand under and pulled out a small shoebox. She opened it and took out a photo. She drew the photo close to her chest and started to cry. " I've never forgotten you..."
