Thank you for reviewing for me bows. At least I know that I'm not all alone, but sighs I still wish that more people well review. But I'm not going to cry as long as people review, ok? You hear that people? Alright this chapter is the longest so far, I think. Oh well, I'm blond. Oh yah! Read and Review!

Disclaimer: I now know I do not own Inuyasha. Or Kagome. Or any one, for a matter of fact. I'm not a slave owner!

Kag POV

'I got ready for bed quickly tonight. Oh well, I still got a ways to go. I think.' I thought, as I was crawling into bed, that I made out of things that I found in the wild. And a small, thin quilt that I made, with my mother last time I was home. 'If the wind is still as wild as it is now, I might just stay here. But...' I thought out my plan, as i slowly fell into a gentle sleep.

When I woke up, late the next morring, I felt stiff, 'I've slept on alot harder surfaces than this one. Oh well, I'll live.' I thought, sighing.I sat up, and streched

"Owww! I pulled something."

I looked around. "It seems normal here. Well, I don't have worry to much." I giggled a little bit and slowly got up. My legs felt like they were jello, and I was going to fall on my butt. 'What's with me today.'

I walked weakly to the river that I was coincidently camped near, to wash up and get ready for the day. The river was icy-cold,so I quickly washed up and jumped out. Now I'm awake and I don't hurt as much. Shivering, I dried myself and got dressed, Then quickly went back to camp to grab my water container so I could fill it for the day.

After I was done packing up my stuff, I started going back Northwest to my village that I was staying at.

I walked for about 5 hours, before it started snowing. I happily, yet sadly stoped in a small clearing in the forest I was in. I sighed. Maybe 'I shoudn't stop. I can go farther if I don't stop now but I didn't have breakfast yet so...' my thoughts were stopped by a loud female scream. I jumped and looking around.

"SOMEONE HELP ME!" the womans voice sounded like it was in front of me.

I ran, weaving though the trees. I sighed, it's my friend Mima, on her dragon Free Faller!

"Mima!" I called to her. Mima has black hair, blue-green eyes, and her outfit is made with blue dragon scales.

"Hey Kagome! Long time no see." she rode Free Faller over to me, slowly.

"Yah, a very long time. So, how are you?" I asked, as she hopped down.

"Good. You?"

"I had a few bad times, but mostly good times." I replied, some snow flying into my face.

"Oh, thats good. Um, where's Aki?" Mima asked, looking around.

"Aki? Aki is dead. Some Dragon Slayers got her." I replied sadly, remembering the certain point in time.

"Oh, sorry."

"Thats ok, I'm fine now." I looked down at the ground quickly, then back at her. "You act like you've never rode Free Faller before."

"Well...it's scary when she...well...freefalls." she looked at the ground, then quickly back at me, seeing the surpised look on my face she looked at the ground, "I know, I should be used to it after 5 years of training, but..," she sighed, "I don't know."

"Lets go to the village, I need to rest." I suggested kindly

"Ok." she grabbed Free Faller's lead and waved for me to follow her. "So, are you going to get a new dragon?" she asked.

I looked up, and let the snow touch my face, as I thought It over.

"I don't know," I replied after a few seconds. "Maybe I'll go back home and stay there for a few years. Maybe, maybe not."

"Oh,ok. I thought, you would have thought it over by now." she said, looking back at me.

"Yah, yah I know." I sighed. We trudged through the snow towards the village. The only thing that was different was the snow, I have never seen this place with snow. I'm usually gone this time of year. Usually back at home with my family, or out traveling with Aki.

The sky was filled with clouds, and some dragons. The river was frozen over, with a bit of ice. There aren't many young children here anymore because it's a training camp. That's why my family isn't here.

Mima looked back at me. "Why the surprised look?" she asked.

"I've never been here at winter." I looked back at her, as I replied.

"Oh, yah." she giggled a bit. "You should see the couples."

"What?" I asked, giggling. "Oww!" I got hit in the back of the head with something. I turned and looked around for what hit me, nothing but snow. A snow ball!

"Hey Kagome!" yelled Joujo, my 'boyfriend'.Well, he thinks he's my boyfriend anyway. He's cute with his browny-black hair, and brown eyes, but...he's just not my type.

"Joujo!" I hollered back. "How are you?"

"Fine. Yourself?" he replied, his cheeks pink from the cold.

"Good." I smiled.

"Are you coming, Kagome?" Mima asked me.

"Oh yah. One second." I looked at her then back at Joujo, "I'll see you later, Joujo."

"Yep." he waved and left. "Bye!"

"Bye!" I looked back to Mima, who had an annoyed look on her face saying, 'come on. Now!' "O.K. O.K. I'm coming. I'm coming" I turned to follow her to my small hut.

After I put all my stuff away and had supper, I went out to find Joujo. When I found him, he was with another girl he likes. Her name is Alexandra, but her nickname is Alex. "Hey Joujo! Hi Alex!" I yelled to them.

"Hey, Kagome. Whats up?" Alex asked. We are pretty good friends.

"The sky." I joked.

"Hahaha, very funny." Joujo laughed at my joke.

"Yah, that is funny." Alex giggled, smiling.

"Thanks. I thought you would like it." I replied, smiling. I've known Alex since I started training here. She has raven black hair, like me, and green eyes.

"Mima told us what happened to Aki. I'm so sorry." Joujo said sadly, patting my back reasuringly.

I looked at him,'well he's not lying about feeling sorrow,but I know he isn't telling me something.' I thought.

"Thanks. I miss her alot, but i'm slowly living with it." I smiled at him as I replied.

"Oh, were we supposed to know?" Alex asked, looking confused.

"It's alright. You know now." I told them. "I better go find Kikyou and tell her that I'm here."

"You haven't seen her yet?" Joujo asked.

"No, I just got here not too long ago."

"Oh, so you were just coming in when I frist saw you." Joujo said. I nodded. "Oh i get it now. Well, see ya later, then."

"Yah, bye. See ya, Alex." I said, waving goodbye to everyone.

"Bye." Alex replied waving.

I turned and left to find Kikyou, my grandmother. I walked into her hut, "Hello?" I yelled quietly.

"Hello, Kagome. What a surpise!" she greeted me as she came from the door at the back of the main room. She gave me a hug.

"Yah, it was a surpise when Aki died too." I sighed then I hugged her back. She let go of me.

"Oh, you poor girl."

"Why does everyone keep feeling simpathy for me? I'm ok now." I tried not to snap at her.

"Because the dragons feel like family to most people. And I'm just guessing, but I think most people think that you feel sad about Aki since she was yours all your life." she explained to me.

"Ok." I replied, still confused. I looked exactly the same as her. We both have raven black hair, and dark brown eyes, and we both have the same type power. Their is a little bit of a difference though. At least, that's what Kikyou said.
