Hi everybody. It's me Anime-Goddess-Sakura. I'm back. Thanks to all those that reviewed. I'm so happy. I can't believe all of the responses that I got.

P.S. Disclaimer I don't own Inuyasha.

Chapter 2

Kagome looked up and was happy to see that there was no roof. She was back in the feudal era. She took a deep breath and smiled at how fresh the air was. 'Still one last thing to do before my complete transformation.' She was about to climb when she remembered that she could just jump. She secured her backpack and jumped. She landed gracefully on the edge of the well. 'Three, two, one.'  "Kagome!" Shippou yelled while launching himself at her.

"I've missed you so much and Inuyasha said that you weren't coming back and that I should just forget about you." Shippou yelled while tears fell from his eyes. "He said that?" Kagome asked her voice taking a deadly tone. Shippou stopped crying and looked at Kagome. "Wow, Kagome you look great." He said as he eyed Kagome's new look.

Kagome was wearing a pair of light blue baggy pants and a white blue halter-top that stop midway her stomach showing off her flat stomach.  Her long hair was held in a high ponytail and had blue highlights in it. Light blue fingerless gloves adorned her hands. Both of her ears had two silver earrings attached to them. She used only a little bit of eyeliner to accentuate her blue eyes even more. For the rest she only wore some lip gloss and some light blush. Her navel was pierced as well. She wore white combat boots.

"Thanks Shippou." Kagome said smiling. "So where are the others?" Kagome asked. "They're at the village; you know Miroku and Sango are up to their usual stuff." Shippou said as he shook his head. Kagome giggled. It had been a whole week since she had seen her friends. "What do you say if we go and surprise them?" Kagome said smiling wickedly. "Yeah!" Shippou cried out while jumping on Kagome's shoulder. "Hang on!" Kagome yelled as she ran through the woods.

Shippou had to gasp at how fast they were going. Kagome could match Inuyasha in speed and maybe even beat him. "Kagome, how come you're fast now?" Shippou yelled. "I've changed a lot pup." She said as she jumped over some fallen trees. Within a few minutes, they were in the village. The villagers looked strangely at Kagome. Yet quickly continued with their business when they saw that Shippou was with her. That meant that she wasn't an enemy. They hadn't recognized her though.

Kagome quickly walked to Kaede's hut. She had masked her scent so that Inuyasha wouldn't be able to smell her. She pushed aside the mat and stepped in. "Can I help you?" Kaede asked. Yet silenced when she saw that it was Kagome. She looked so different that it was hard to tell that it was her. Now no one could tell her that she looked like Kikyo. "Kagome!" Sango yelled as she hugged her friend. "Kagome you look great!" Sango yelled, as she looked Kagome over. Kagome smiled at her friend. Yet she froze when she felt a hand on her behind.

"Lady Kagome, I've missed you a lot." Miroku said as she petted her. Snago was about to hit him on the head, when Kagome beat her to it. Miroku was knocked into the wall by Kagome whom had just slapped him. "I'd say you've become stronger lady Kagome." Miroku said before he lost consciousness. "Wow, Kagome that was quite a slap." Sango said smiling. Kagome giggled as she watched Shippo give Miroku a kick in the leg. Yet she stopped smiling when she heard the next words. "Hey wench, so you've finally decided to come back." Inuyasha said as he got up. Kagome didn't pay attention to him. "So child what have you been up to?" Kaede asked as Kagome sat down. "I've been very busy Kaede." Kagome said a smirk playing on her lips.

Miroku that had finally regained consciousness couldn't help, but think that she had changed somewhat. Inuyasha on the other hand was fuming. She had completely ignored him. Nevertheless he had to admit that she looked good. "What exactly do you mean?" Miroku asked his curiosity getting the best of him. "Wouldn't you like to know?" Kagome said grinning like a chestire cat. Miroku blinked as he tried to comprehend her answer. Kagome blew a hair that was in her face away. "So are you guys ready to find the rest of the shikon jewel?" Kagome said standing up. "Feh, you bet we're going to look for those shards seeing that you've been gone for a seven whole days." Inuyasha said as he stood up. "Inuyasha!" Shippou yelled enraged that Inuyasha was being mean to Kagome.

"It's okay pup." Kagome answered as she stood up as well. "And besides Inuyasha, Kikyo is outside." Kagome said in a calm voice. "What?!" Inuyasha yelled. He sniffed the air. Kagome was right; he could smell earth and bones. "She's just in time, I have some business to discuss with her." Kagome said as she stood up. She calmly pushed the mat aside and stepped outside. She sniffed the air and picked up the scent of dirt and bones. It was coming from the forest. She calmly walked towards the sacred tree where she knew that Kikyo would be. And she was right too.

"What are you doing here my reincarnate?" Kagome turned around and saw Kikyo standing there. Kagome smirked at her nickname. "I guess you were looking for your mutt." Kagome said sarcastically. "Yet if I'm not mistaken he will be here any second." Kagome said. She was right. Within a few seconds Inuyasha was there. Kagome sighed as she saw the lost puppy look in his face. "Inuyasha." Kikyo whispered. In Kagome's opinion she sounded like a snake. "Kikyo." Inuyasha whispered. Kagome rolled her eyes. It was always the same Kikyo would call out Inuyasha's name, and then Inuyasha would call out Kikyo's name. Inuyasha would have the dumb lost puppy look on his face. Then Kikyo would try one way or another to take him to hell. Then she, Kagome would save him. Kagome swore that this time she wasn't going to save his ass.

Unknown to them they were being watched, Sesshoumaru was sitting in a tree high above them. He had masked his scent and his aura so that none of them would sense him. HE had observed everything and he found that Inuyasha's wench had changed somewhat. And for some reason she seemed purer. He was knocked out of his musings when the object of his thoughts spoke. Okay are you two done?" Kagome asked breaking the moment. "Hey, what do you mean wench?" Inuyasha yelled. "Whatever Inuyasha." Kagome said as she looked at Kikyo. "Kikyo I must give you something that belongs to you." Kagome said as Kikyo looked quizzically at her. "That would probably be my soul." Kikyo said arrogantly. "You're right." Kagome said her face and not showing any emotions. At that same moment Shippou, Sango and Miroku arrived. "Kagome, you can't do that!" Shippou yelled. He had seen when Kagome's soul had been taken away from her. She was like a lifeless puppet. He didn't want that to happen to her again.

"Lady Kagome, don't do it!" Miroku yelled. Sesshoumaru was curious about why the wench's friends seemed almost afraid of what she was going to do. And not to mention she was going to give her soul to his brother's dead bitch. It didn't take a genoius to know that everyone needed a soul to function. However it was to expect that a human would do something foolish like that. The race was after all nothing more then annoying cattle to the Demon Lord of the West.  Kagome's friends couldn't come any closer to her for they seemed to be stopped by a shield. Even Inuyasha was surprised. Kikyo laughed. "Then why don't you give it to me?" Kikyo said.

"Very well." Kagome closed her eyes and concentrated on Kikyos' soul. Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow at the woman-child in front of her. His youkai instincts kicked in when he felt the purifying energy around him. A pink ball seemed to concentrate in the middle of Kagome's chest. He held back a growl; the girl was a miko after all. However in that moment she didn't seem human at all. Her hair was flying around her and her body seemed to glow brighter as the pink ball seemed to leave her body. She suddenly snapped her eyes open. If Sesshoumaru was one to show emotions, he would have gasped. They were completely white. The ball grew bigger and bigger until it shot towards the dead miko. Kikyo was blasted away and Kagome fell on the ground. "Kikyo!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran towards her; he forgot completely about Kagome.

"Kikyo are you okay?" he asked as he helped her up. Kikyo gasped when she felt her heart beating; she was alive. She laughed, for once showing emotions. "She was a fool to give me back my soul; she's now no more then an empty vessel." Kikyo said looking towards Kagome. Yet she was shocked when she saw Kagome stand up. Kagome opened her eyes and gazed at Kikyo. Kikyo took a step back when she saw the color of her eyes. They were silver blue. Her pupils were now like Inuyasha's and Sesshoumaru's.  The half of the shikon no tama around her neck was glowing a bright pink as Kagome herself was surrounded by a bright light.  Sesshoumaru could have sworn he saw white wings coming out of her back. Yet when he blinked the wings were gone.

"Thanks Kikyo I needed to get your mortal's soul out of my body." Kagome said smiling. "What do you mean?" Kikyo asked. "You really thought I was your reincarnation?" Kagome asked smiling. Kagome chuckled as she saw Kikyo's and Inuyasha's face. "Anyways I think we should continue our journey." Kagome said as she turned around and began walking away as if nothing had happened. "Wait why did you do this?" Kikyo asked. "You must hate me for taking Inuyasha away from you." Kikyo asked standing up. Kagome turned around and walked towards the once dead miko.

Kikyo looked like she was going to take a step back. Yet she held her ground. Kagome on her turn seemed to glow as she neared the older woman. "I must admit that it hurts to see Inuyasha push me everytime away only to be with you." "However I now understand that he loves you and you love him and I'm not going to come between the two of you." "Even though it might hurt me." She said raising her hand and caressing Kikyo's cheek. Kikyo felt like she was engulfed by warmth. "I give you my blessings." She said as she turned around and walked away.

Kikyo raised her hand to touch her cheek; she had purified the hate in her heart. Tears trickled down her cheeks as she watched her walk away. She now knew what she was. And she knew that the young girl had a harsh road in front of her. "Thank you Kagome." She whispered as Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her towards him. Inuyasha watched as the young girl walked away. "Inuyasha I need to think for a while, when I'm done we can continue our journey." Kagome yelled to him as she disappeared into the woods.

"Kagome?" Shippou asked, jumping on Kagome's shoulder. "What is it pup?" she asked as she turned and gazed at him. "Why have your eyes changed?" he asked curiously. "There are a lot of changes yet to come." She answered trying to hold back the tears. She had done the right thing; Kikyo was alive and after the battle with Naraku Inuyasha and her could finally be together. Yet it still hurt. She had now and forever said goodbye to Inuyasha. "Mommy, why are you crying?" Shippou asked when he saw the tears streaming down her face. Shippou had begun calling her mommy since she began calling him her pup. "It's nothing sweety." Kagome said brushing away the tears.

"Don't worry mommy, you will someday find the person that will love you for who you are." Shippou said taking Kagome's face in his little hands and turning her face to look at him. Kagome couldn't help, but smile. Even though he was still very young, he understood things better then any adult. She quickly took him in her arms and hugged him hard. "I love you my pup." She whispered. "I love you too, mommy." Shippou said hugging her back.
