"I just can't believe that selfish bastard. How many times will she have to try to kill you, Kagome?! How many times will it take for him to realize her attempt to drag him to hell with her?! 100? 500? Hell, maybe even a thousand?! I don't see how you can put up with his crap, Kagome," said the Slayer, who was taking her angry out on an nearby tree. "Then that clay pot of an whore! Oh, I just want to melt her!."
"Sango, can you have Kiara take me to the hut? I just want to get my stuff, and then kiss Shippo a goodbye. I'll be going home, shortly, after I say my good-byes," said the sadden miko.
"I agree with you Lady Kagome. I believe it will be best for you to stay home, until you are ready," said the monk, who was still in shock from the way InuYasha handled the miko. If, it wasn't for her, none of them would be where they are now. She was the heart of this group. If she every left for good, then this group would never be the same.
"I agree, Miroku."
After, the three landed on ground, Shippo rushed to his adoptive mother, and jumped in her arms. "Momma, I missed you so much. InuYasha was such a big meanie, momma. I thought-," the kitsune started to cry uncontrollably. He was crying at the fact, Kagome could've been gone forever, and he didn't like the thought of that. "I'm here now baby. Mommy will never leave you, Shippo." The miko wanted to shed her tears, but decided against it.
"Shippo." He stop shedding tears as he heard his adoptive mother calling his name.
"Yes, momma?," asked the kitsune with concern in his emerald green eyes.
"Shippo, mommy will be leaving, shortly. So, I need you to be strong , while I am gone, please. You got to be a big boy. Sango and Miroku will be watching you. Do you understand?" The little fox youkai didn't like the do sound of that. So he asked, "Mommy are you leaving, forever?," tears started to form in the kitsune eyes again.
"No,baby of course not. I'll be going home, for a couple of days. Also, you remember Kiyomi?"
"Yes."
"Well she is coming tomorrow, so I have to help out, before she comes."
"Oh. But you will coming back, right momma?, asked the kit with a gleam of hope 'that she will be saying yes' in his eyes.
"That's right baby. Now I want you to stay with Miroku and Sango and Kiara at all times, do you understand?" he nodded his head.
"Good, now I'm about to pack my things, and I need your help. As most of the items scattered out everywhere. Also, I'll be leaving the red and white pack with you guys. You know the medical aid kit, just in case somebody needs it." Glancing up she noticed that the elderly miko started walking towards them. "Shippo, honey can you go get some of the items, and place it in my bag, sweetie." The kitsune rushed inside of the hut as he gathered some of the items.
"Yes Lady Kaede?"
"Kagome, I am so sorry for the hanyou actions against ye. If there is anyway I can help let ye know. I also, understand that you will be leaving shortly, after you finish packing. Seeing that ye are in a rush, I'll tell you once, ye is by herself and has time to take all this information. This information is a theory, but I'll tell ye of this theory once you have returned and is alone. Once again, I-"
"Lady Kaede, one of the villagers is in need of your assistance with their wound," said a villager, who stop abruptly to bow his head at the elder priestess and young miko. "Please forgive, miko."
"There is no need for that. You'll will address me as Kagome," said Kagome, who could see the shock in the in the young villager eyes. She smiled to reassure the villager. He nodded his head.
"I'll will have a chat with ye child, one you've returned." After the old lady left, Kagome thought about what this theory could have possibly been. From, her been in such a deep thought of what this information could've, she didn't even notice Shippo calling her name. Until, he tugged on her sock. Realizing her adopted son was tugging on her sock, she felt ashamed that she didn't notice him at first. "Sorry, baby. I was thinking about something. I see you found all my items. Thank you so much, sweetie."
"I did mommy, but it was too heavy for me to lift."
"Oh that's alright, honey. I'm glad you packed it for me. You'll get one of those Hershey bars, when I return." She chuckled at the face her son made, he practically was drooling from the thought of a delicious treat from the future. "Kiara," called the miko.
The fire cat transformed and started purring and rubbing against the girl from the future leg. Kagome rubbed the cat's head and bent down to give her son a kiss on the forehead and cheek. "I love you Shippo. Be good."
"I love you too mommy. I'll miss you." The kitsune went back into the hut and Kagome called out to Sango and Miroku. After hearing their names being called, they rushed to their friend.
"Yes, Lady Kagome?," asked the monk.
"Well, I'm about to leave. Please, take care of Shippo for me. Don't let him get hurt. Keep him from any danger." Nodding their heads, they understood how much she loved kitsune. And she'll lose it, if something happen to Shippo. "I'll see you all soon. Bye." Already knowing what was about to happen, once she gave the monk a hug, she chuckled. As giving him a hug, she felt his hands sliding down her backside, then he fell out of her arms. "Lecher." Both girls started laughing at the unconscious monk.
"I'll miss you Kagome, even though it's for a couple of days. We'll try to hold InuYasha off, while you are gone," said Sango
"Yeah, we will," coming from the monk, who was on the ground.
"Thanks you guys. Well I guess its time then." She jumped on Kiara. As Kiara flew off into the sky, Kagome turned around waving and saying her good-byes to her sons and friends. Thinking this would be a perfect a little bit of some rest, so laid against the fire cat soft fur and drifted to sleep. After twenty minutes, the ride was over. Kiara then nudged the miko with the tip if her cold wet nose to wakes. Sleepily, the miko got up and pet the cat good-bye. She kissed her on her forehead, and tried to send the cat off. Realizing, the fire cat wasn't leaving, until Kagome was safe. Before she jumped into the Bone Eaters Well, she told Kiara to be safe and to watch over the others. The youkai cat nodded her head understandably.
She farewell the nekomata one last time, and jumped through the well. Feeling that she was home, she climbed the ladder, and was glad to be somewhere comfortable. At her home. Yeah, she was comfortable in the Feudal Area; however, the Feudal Area couldn't offer certain thing her home did. And the same could be said about the Feudal Area. She looked into the dark pit of well for some moments. After getting tired, she walked out the shrine and closed the doors.
She rushed to the vines that grew on her side of the house and grateful that her mom had not cut them down yet. She gripped the strong vines and climbed up to the to roof, and open the window. After managing to get through the window, she took off her shoes, and changed into her favorite pj's. Once through, she climbed into bed and sleep took over her eyes.
