Why they changed it I have no idea. Grrr, anyways people…enjoy

Chapter Seven- Journey to the future

Sesshoumaru growled "do not make deals with me, Kagome" he warned. Then he quickly grabbed Kagome around the waist and hopped in. Kagome of course was more than shocked when he did that, but quickly forgot about that when a blue light took over {I wonder if the well will let Sesshoumaru through} she wondered.

Within no time the blue light stopped and they were on solid ground. Sesshoumaru released Kagome of his grasp though she did not notice he was even behind her and he looked up. Darkness. He then looked at Kagome who was starting to climb out {could she have been telling the truth?} he wondered. He then jumped out, beating Kagome out of the well.

Kagome climbed up and looked down to see if Sesshoumaru was behind her. He wasn't. She shrugged {guess he wasn't allowed through} she thought before she finished climbing out only to see Sesshoumaru waiting. She let out a surprised 'eek' and nearly fell back, but caught herself. Her heart was beating quickly as she looked back and saw Sesshoumaru who was now staring at her intently "what? You scared me"

Sesshoumaru folded his arms "you fight youkai that could kill you and yet you are afraid when someone stands in front of you" he pointed out.

Kagome glared and was ready to retort when she remembered {oh yeah, demon lord, could and would probably kill me if I were to tick him off} she thought. Instead she just stood up "well let's go inside my house then so I can get my supplies"

Kagome walked up to the shrine door and opened it before taking a step outside. Sesshoumaru instantly growled when all the smells assaulted his nose {this air is so filthy} he thought.

Kagome tensed when she heard the growl. She then remembered something Inuyasha once told her. Full-blooded youkai have excellent smell, much better than a hanyu's sense of smell. Kagome turned around and looked at the taiyoukai {so of course he can smell everything} she thought {every human}.

Sesshoumaru looked at her. His face held no emotion, not even his eyes displayed his disgust for the smell of her world. The only thing to give him away was that one growl he made. He stared at Kagome "what is this world?"

"I told you it's the future," she reminded.

He growled again "it is disgusting"

Kagome frowned {I strike what I had thought about him being not so bad, he's just like the first time I met him} she thought. Kagome waked back to the demon lord "well Sesshoumaru-sama, humans dominate here"

Sesshoumaru glared at her {humans' rule here?} he wondered. He mentally shook his head "let's hurry up here"

Kagome nodded "hai, Sesshoumaru-sama"

Together they walked out of the shrine and into the house. Kagome looked around "hello?" she called "is any one home?"

"Oh Kagome your home!" came a female voice from another room "we started to worry since you haven't been home in awhile"

"I'm sorry mom, but some stuff has happened"

Sesshoumaru glanced at Kagome "hurry and get what you need"

Kagome nodded "hai, Sesshoumaru-sama"

Just then Mrs. Higurashi came in "how long are you staying this time?"

"Not long mom" Kagome replied, "I only came to get supplies" she then looked at Sesshoumaru "mom, this is Sesshoumaru-sama. I'm going to be staying with him for awhile"

Mrs. Higurashi looked at the taiyoukai and bowed "greetings. I am Aksumi Higurashi"

Sesshoumaru decided to be polite as well. Never know he might get some information about Kagome. He bowed in return "a pleasure to meet you"

Kagome blinked {he's changed again} she thought {now he's being sociable} she mentally shook her head and looked at the taiyoukai "I'll be right back" and with that she ran upstairs to get some clean clothes.

Mrs. Higurashi watched her daughter retreat upstairs before returning her attention to the man in front of her "please, do come in and have a seat while you wait for Kagome"

Sesshoumaru gave a slight nod "arigato" and he followed the woman in. {Well now I at least know where that Kagome gets her manners from} he thought as he took a seat in the kitchen. He looked around the room. It was interesting. Mrs. Higurashi excused herself and left the room.

Just then Kagome came in and jumped slightly at the youkai lord sitting at the kitchen table.

Sesshoumaru looked at her "are you finished yet?"

Kagome shook her head "I don't have youkai speed like you Sesshoumaru-sama"

He growled, "You'll do well to watch whom your speaking to"

Kagome ignored him. She was in her time; she should be able to do what she wanted. This was also her home and she should be able to act anyway she wanted. Kagome saw her mother return into the kitchen and went to the sink to start on the dishes "mama, do you know if we have any good books that can be used for teaching children?"

Mrs. Higurashi looked at her "why do you need to know that?"

Kagome sighed, "I'm going to be spending awhile with Sesshoumaru, teaching a little girl that lives with him"

Her mother smiled "that's very kind of you sweetie, uum, yes we do have some books. Go see your grandfather, he should know where they are"

Kagome groaned, but did as she was told. Sesshoumaru just watched this everyday living style that Kagome had been brought up in. He noticed the humans in this world were very different from the humans in his world. One difference was, Kagome's humans were educated. Another, humans in his world smelled disgusting, but even he had to admit humans didn't smell that bad in this world. Well Kagome's mom didn't smell awful and…even though he would never say it out loud, Kagome smelt okay too.

Sesshoumaru was brought out of his thoughts by the sound of Kagome coming back in with some books. She then looked around in the cupboards "mama, where is the candy?"

Mrs. Higurashi looked up from the sink "I believe the chocolate is in the fridge while the other candy is in the candy jar"

"Arigato mama" Kagome said as she pulled out the candy and was suddenly reminded of Shippo. She frowned a little {I wonder if he's okay. I hope Inuyasha isn't being too hard on him} she thought. She found herself very close to the little fox demon every since she first met him. Shippo was so young and he had no one else really except her. Kagome felt a little ashamed of herself for running away without telling Shippo or even taking him with her.

Kagome then shook her head of the thought. In no time she would return to the group and everything would be back the way it was. She stuffed the candy in her bag; she figured Rin had never tried candy and so would find it fun to try it.

Sesshoumaru stared at Kagome and could feel sadness in her aura "are you ready yet?"

Kagome nodded "yes I am"

Mrs. Higurashi turned from the dishes "have a fun time, Kagome, oh by the way is your dog-eared friend joining you?"

Kagome stiffened before looking at her mom "uuh, no mom, he isn't. I'm staying with Sesshoumaru because" she quickly had to think of an excuse, eh a close truth wouldn't hurt "Inuyasha and I had a disagreement. Plus I just needed a break from everything"

Her mother nodded "okay then"

At that minute just as Kagome and Sesshoumaru were about to leave, Souta came into the room. He was now 12 and slightly taller. He was quick to notice the taiyoukai "whoa is it halloween already?"

Kagome glared at him "Souta!"

The boy jumped "what? It was just a question. Who is he?" Souta asked, pointing to Sesshoumaru "he looks almost like Inuyasha"

Kagome rolled her eyes "that's because he's Inuyasha's half brother"

Souta's eyes widen "really? Wow that is so neat!" he looked up at the demon lord who was standing still as a statue "are you sure he's related to Inuyasha? This guy's a stiff"

"Souta!" Kagome glared at him "you should show more manners"

Souta looked at his sister "well you aren't showing any, you haven't even introduced us"

Sesshoumaru watched the child and assumed that the boy was Kagome's brother. He also found this Souta to be quite clever {just like his sister} he thought as he remembered a few times Kagome had broken his armour when he wasn't looking or even had the guts to talk back to him.

Kagome rolled her eyes "well we were on our way out" she sighed "fine, Souta meet Sesshoumaru-sama, Sesshoumaru-sama meet my brother Souta"

Sesshoumaru nodded. He refused to bow to a child. Souta's eyes went wide "sama? That means lord" again Sesshoumaru gave a curt nod and Souta grinned, "wow, you're a lord?"

"Indeed" Sesshoumaru replied.

Souta walked closer to him "are you a demon too, like Inuyasha?"

Sesshoumaru gave a low growl "he is a hanyu, a half demon. I on the other hand am a full-blooded demon. Do not get confused"

Souta nodded "oh" he glanced at his sister and then back at the taiyoukai "so how'd you get to be friends with my sister? You seem to proper too be friends with Kagome"

Kagome shot her brother a death glare "Souta" she said in a warning tone "I'm going to get you when I come back"

Souta ignored his sister "so, Sesshoumaru-sama, have you killed any demons? What's your business with my sister? You aren't dating her are you?"

That did it. Kagome punched her brother in the head "of course not! Believe it or not me and him use to be enemies" Kagome groaned "forget it, I'm not having this conversation, I'm out of here" with that she started to walk to the well with Sesshoumaru following close behind very amused at what had transpired in the home.

At the well shine, Kagome looked at the well, calming slightly. She couldn't believe her brother would suggest that or act that way in front of Sesshoumaru. She couldn't wait to get back to the feudal era and take her break. It then registered that she wouldn't be with Inuyasha, not that it mattered because she was still upset with him, but that meant she wouldn't see Shippo and that saddened her.

Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome and could feel her aura sadden again "what saddens you?"

Kagome turned and looked at him "I just miss Shippo a little"

"Who?"

"He's that little fox demon who's always with me" she answered

Sesshoumaru gave a curt nod before wrapping his arms around her waist and jumping into the well. He had no desire to stay there for any longer than he had to.

Hai- Yes

Youkai- demon

Arigato- thank you

Taiyoukai- Great demon
