"Yeah, I want you to come with me," she said.

My mouth fell open, "Kagome, I don't think it's such a good idea to go at all." She gave me a sour expression which I ignored. "You see, your obsession…"

"I'm not obsessed with the feudal era. I simply want to see my friends!" She put her hands on her hips.

I held mine in front of me, "okay, okay… I'm sorry."

"Will you help me?" Her voice was pleading. "You're the only person I have kept contact with after I returned from the feudal era."

I sighed, thinking. Would it truly be that bad to help her? I had known Kagome for one year now, and I already knew that once she had set her mind to something she would get it. It was a trait I both loved and loathed about the Japanese woman. She would not let me stand in her way. Nothing could. I knew.

But then, there was the fact that time travel was tricky business. One could end up altering the future. I eyed Kagome who still waited for my reply. She had been influenced by the Jewel and gone back in time. Without it, she could not. So she had, herself, concluded that she needed yet another magical item from the same time period to travel. She was smart enough to understand that, at least.

But she must have been sent back to her own time to not disturb the timeline. If she returned, would that mess everything up? Could I risk it? And what damage would happen if I came along? I sighed good and long before I finally made up my mind. I nodded, "I'll help you." She squealed.

I held up my index finger and gave her a stern look. "On one condition – we will only stay there one week." Kagome ran towards me and pulled me into a hug.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" she repeated and tightened her hold on me. I mentally cursed. My senses told me that this was a really bad idea – and the feeling would not leave me alone.
