Ok well I desided to do a short update cause it's pretty damn obvious that I'm not gonna get the four reviews I asked for….. Growl.

Running to the edge of the clearing, she looked over the surroundings to make sure everything was secure. Despite the barrier surrounding the place to ensure safety, her years of wandering Sengoku Jidia would not allow her to do otherwise. Seeing everything was fine she took off out of the barrier and towards the Tama-tachi.

Not too far away

The mornings events had been quiet, no one really spoke. Sango and Miroku looked between InuYasha and Kagome. Both had come into the clearing together without so much as a word. They had each gone to their respective places and gone to sleep. They both silently wondered if perhaps the two had made peace. Yet still they were curious to know how.

The next morning InuYasha had woken them early and they had set off in the direction in which they had seen the two strange youkai disappear to. They only noises to disrupt this eerie calm had been Miroku's antics and Shippou's occasional childish questions.

Kagome and InuYasha were both deep in thought though still alert of their surroundings yet the glaze over their eyes showed a disconnect with reality. InuYasha's thoughts centered around the new development that had occurred. He was elated yet he felt as though he had lost something, but this was for the better….right?

Kagome rather than being terribly upset felt better than she had in a long time. Though this was why she was in a daze, shouldn't she be upset or at least sad to give up? If so why did she feel so happy? Yea it was great not to have to think about it anymore but still… "Huh?" Kagome looked up and instantly knew the feeling that had bombarded her sense's. The group stopped as the simultaneously realized that Kagome was no longer with them but standing stock still behind them.

"What's wrong Kagome-chan?" Sango asked as she always did. Kagome stopped focusing on the jewel shard and realized how much of a rut she and her friends were in. ' Wow, we really have to try doing something else for a change.' She looked at them smiled and started walking to her left and simply said. " The jewel shard just popped out of nowhere, kind of startled me." The other's looked at her with slight amazement. She had never been so non chalent about sensing a shard that was close. She looked back at her friends and asked if they were coming.

The group stumbled out of their stupor and fallowed Kagome. The entire group didn't seem to mind that they were headed towards a jewel shard as if they were on a noon day stroll, but if Kagome didn't sense any ill will from the shard there was no need to barge in as though there was.

Yea, it's short but hell i'm busy and come on... I asked for four and got two reviews.. which i'm grateful for...don't worry my next update should be it's usual length regardless of review responce.
