Betrayed

Chapter 5

In the morning, Kagome woke up and went downstairs and saw that the man wasn't there. Maybe he went to work. She didn't care where he went.

Her mother wasn't there so Kagome decided to check her room. Kagome walked up the stairs slowly and stopped in front of her mom's door.

Kagome heard sobbing from inside. It sounded like her mom. She opened the door and walked inside.

Her mother was on the bed crying, and Kagome could see bruises starting to form on her arms, stomach, and face.

She felt anger, anger for that horrible man for hurting her mother. No one had the right to hit her mom like that, even though it was her fault for marrying that man.

Kagome walked up to her mom and hugged, letting her mom's tears soak her shirt. Her face was still emotionless, even though she knew she should be feeling sorry for her mom, or at least something. (A/N: Ooooooo, just like Sai, from Naruto, he doesn't know when to show emotion or something like that.)

After awhile, her mother stopped crying and dried her tears. Kagome got up and walked out the door, knowing that her mom didn't need her anymore.

For the next week, Kagome stayed in her room. Sometimes she went on the computer, sometimes she fingered the locket. Once when she went on the computer, when discovered this wevsite, she totally freaked out. It was called FanFiction. It officially creeped her out, there were things in there about her! (A/N: That's very creepy! Hahahahahaha, imagine the look on her face as she discovered fanfiction).

She didn't go downstairs for her food. Instead, her mom came upstairs with her food. But, if her mom didn't like taking the dishes back and forth, she didn't say anything.

When the week was up, she was going to leave, but her mom stopped her on the way out. Her mother started crying again and begging her not to leave.


Kagome's POV

I watched as my mom attached herself to me, crying over the fact that I was leaving. I tried prying her off, but she held on tight.

I stopped trying to push her away and just stayed still. I closed my eyes and sighed, my mom was making this harder then she needed it to be.

This was such a drag, so troublesome. (Just like Shikamaru! He says that all the time! Oh yeah, he's from Naruto.) I opened my eyes again and said, "Okay, stop crying, I'll stay for another week."

Immediately, she let go and jumped with joy. 'So annoying.'

'Hai, she is annoying isn't she, yeah?'

'It's you, what do you want?'

'Nothing, I was just stopping by for a friendly visit, yeah.' Her voice dripped with sarcasm.

'So, what do you want now?'

'Nothing, I was just, uh . . . I don't know, our mom was being annoying, I just had to say something, yeah.'

'Yeah, did you find something more about Anita?'

'How could I? I'm stuck in your head, yeah!'

'Okay, don't need to be so loud. I was just asking.'

'Whatever.'

'So what-'

'Your mom is asking you a question.'

'What?'

'I SAID your MOM is asking you a QUESTION!'

'Okay, I was just asking, sheesh.'

"Yes, Mother?" I asked, "I wasn't really paying attention. So can you repeat that?"

My mom nodded and said, "You can't be locked up in your room all day, everyday. So, would you like to go out tomorrow? Like to the movies? Or shopping while you're here?"

I nodded my head and walked back up to my room and dropped my bag on my bed. I walked over to the computer and turned it on. I waited for it to load up and stared at the ceiling.

When the computer was finished loading, I went to FanFiction. It was creepy, but it was also cool that there was other fanfics that weren't about me.

I happened to stumble across a manga/anime called Naruto, I read a few stories and I liked them. They were cool.

It was weird too; they lived at a place called Konoha. Is it the same place where Anita used to live? I never saw Konoha on the globe of the world. I wonder where it is.

Anyways, I think I'm getting hooked on that fanfiction stuff. So I got off and lay down on my bed, half on and half off.

Once again I stared at the ceiling; it was so boring here in the Modern Era.

The next day we went to the mall, after that day we went to the movies.

Soon, the week was up, and I was happy, two weeks from the feudal era was too long now.

This time, I was sneaking out of the house, trying to avoid staying another week. Still, my mom caught me.

This time she didn't ask me to stay home another week, but she still cried a bit.

I didn't like to see my mom cry, but I decided that if I didn't have people close to me, then I won't feel the pain they cause me.

I left after that, I walked to the bus stop and got on, using the money my mom gave me.

I walked up the steps to the shrine. I snuck in, making sure the couple did not see me again.

Once I entered the storage shed, I immediately jumped into the well, calming down as the warm, soothing blue light swallowed me and sent me to Sengoku Jidai.

When I got there, it was very quiet. I wondered why.


Normal POV

Kagome went to Kaede's village and went into her hut. No one was in there, so she went to look around the village.

Everyone in t he village was sad and depressed, Kagome wondered what happened. They weren't doing their jobs properly; they were doing their jobs halfheartedly.

Kagome got fed up and asked the nearest person why everyone was moping. "Because Lady Kaede has died." The man said.

That made Kagome freeze as eyes widen and she falls to her knees. She clutches her chest where her heart is. 'It hurts, it hurts so much.

She gasps as the pain in her heart increased. 'Kami-sama, it hurts, help me out of this pain and misery. Tell me what I should do, I'm so confused.'

Kagome got up, her eyes stinging as she wanted to cry but didn't. She put on her bag and walked out of the village, her hands still clutching her chest.

'Why does this happening to me? It's that feeling again, the feeling of being. . . Betrayed. . .'

Kaede left her, just like Gramps, Souta, mom, even InuYasha. They left her.

Soon Kagome began jogging, and it turned into a sprint. After a few hours, longer than she ever gone in one time, she collapsed in a grove, a cherry blossom grove to be exact. Kagome propped herself up against one of the trees there. She wasn't paying attention to her surroundings.

Her bag was next to her, half of its contents spilling out. Kagome just sat there, looking at the sky as the sakura petals danced around her with the wind.

'So beautiful, so fragile, so. . . Pure. The sakura blossoms are even prettier here in Sengoku Jidai.

As she sat there, she felt the walls she put around her emotions crack. Kagome felt it crack slowly, and soon she felt a flood of emotion.

She felt sad, depressed, overwhelmed, angry, and most of all. . . Betrayed. Kagome burst out crying, unable to keep her emotions under control.

She stopped the loud noises she was making, but she couldn't start the tears from coming. Her tears flowed down her cheeks as she looked up at the sky and watched as the sun went down slowly.

Kagome heard laughing throughout the grove and her head snapped in that direction. The tears immediately stopped flowing.

Suddenly, a black blur bounded into her lap, knocking her back against the tree.

Kagome gasped as the girl in her lap moved around. Her back hurt.

Big, brown eyes stared up at her. "Hello pretty lady! Rin is Rin. Do you see Sesshomaru-sama?"

Kagome's eyes widen at the sound of his name, was he here?

'Ooooh, a chance to see Sesshomaru-sama, yeah. Then you can ask about him about the locket, yeah!' screamed her conscious.

"Rin likes the sakura petals! Rin wants to know if you like them too!"

"Ah, hai. They're beautiful."

"Rin thinks you are too!"

Kagome looked down at the girl in her arms and smile, a faint ghostly smile that was nowhere near as great as her other smiles she's given.

"Rin thinks you should smile more!" The little girl smiled at Kagome and reached her hands up.

Kagome froze as small, soft hands brushed away her tears. 'This child is so innocent, so fragile, and so beautiful, just like the sakura blossoms.' She thought as Rin dried her tears.

"Rin wants to know why pretty lady was crying. You look really sad."

Kagome didn't answer, but she just stiffened as she felt a demonic aura nearby. But, as soon as she tried to pinpoint their location, it vanished.

Kagome's eyes narrow, but she didn't say anything. She just tightened her grip on Rin and smiled at the small girl.

She was talking about what she liked, which included flowers, butterflies, and her Lord Sesshomaru.

Rin stopped talking and looked up at Kagome. "Is something wrong?" The little girl asked, knowing something was wrong and frowning slightly.

"Mo, nothing's wrong." Kagome said, giving the little girl a fake smile.

Rin nodded her head and they watched as the sun set, allowing them to see the full moon.

Kagome, getting tired of the silence, asked "Rin, why aren't you with Sesshomaru?"

Rin frowns, and then hugs Kagome, crying on her shirt. "Rin can't find Sesshomaru-sama!" She wailed.

Kagome once again felt the same demonic aura nearby. She quickly snapped her head in the direction of the demon. Just as she was about to run, the youkai came.

It was Sesshomaru.

He walked over to them and placed a hand on Rin's head. Rin immediately calmed down and looked up at Sesshomaru.

She jumped out of Kagome's lap and threw her arms around Sesshomaru's neck, shouting in joy.

Kagome smiled slightly at the two, and she turned away, looking at the other end of the grove.

As she turned her head, Sesshomaru noticed a glint in the moonlight. His eyes widen a fraction as he noticed what it was.

'That locket, is mine. I wonder why she still has it. It has been months since she found it here.' Sesshomaru thought as Rin was hugging tightly.

Kagome looked around her, she didn't really know where she was, and she hadn't bothered checking. Then, Kagome finally noticed where she was.

'This is the Western Lands! Had I run that far?'

'Hai, you did, baka.'

'Don't call me a baka, if anyone's a baka, you are!'

'You do know that if you call me a baka, then it means you're calling yourself a baka, yeah!'

'Just shut up!'

'Sesshomaru-sama is looking at you, yeah.'

Kagome looked back at Sesshomaru, and he was looking at her. He gazed at her unblinkingly before Rin interrupted them by saying, "Sesshomaru-sama, where were you?"

Her looked down at her and said, "Checking something."

Rin just smiled, Kagome guessed that she accepted that answer from him.

Rin sat back down in Kagome's lap. Sesshomaru sat down in front of the two and stared at the miko who looked at his ward who was falling asleep.

He smelled the lingering scent of salt, indicating that the two was crying. He also caught the scent of the silver locket around the miko's neck.

The soothing scent of the sakura blossoms and Kagome's own sweet scent of vanilla calmed his jittery nerves.

Usually, he could calm himself down so that he would not show emotion. But today was very stressful. He caught a whiff of Naraku's scent nearby and took off.

Rin was still asleep and when she woke up, she left their camp searching for him. By the time he got back, she was gone, and Jaken didn't know where she was.

They were far away from her, making it harder to find her.

Kagome relaxed and closed her eyes, deciding to sleep, even though she didn't have anything to eat since earlier today.

Sesshomaru watched as Kagome's breath evened out, and her heartbeat slow, indicating she was asleep.

Slowly, he sat next to her, pulling her and Rin onto his lap. HE wrapped his arms around both of them and drifted off into a light sleep.


A/N: I think the beginning of this story, meaning chapter one, is too similar to other SessKag stories. One of my friends said so. I like this story, but I couldn't think of a better beginning! That sucks. But I'm still going to continue, don't worry, and because I know you all this story! Please review.

Thank you all who have reviewed!
