Thanks for the reviews everybody. Especially the one's who gave me some tips on how to make this a better story like Sango Taijiya. I'm going to take your advice.

I Promise To Come Back

-10 Years Is A Long Time To Wait-

"WAKE UP!!!"

Kagome shot up out of bed and ended up falling flat on her face from the top bunk.

"Owwie…" she mumbled.

'Now I know how Inuyasha felt… Inuyasha' she thought to herself.

She started to daydream again about a certain hanyou friend of hers.

"Sango she's daydreaming again! Bring her back to earth!" yelled the girl who had woken Kagome up.

A tall athletic girl with long brown hair walked in. She raised an eyebrow when she saw Kagome on the floor.

"Hey don't look at me it was all her!" she said defensively.

Sango just sighed at her friend and laughed. She remembered when she first met her when they were toddlers. Sango was 3 at the time and Kagome was 2. She remembered how she had promised to visit Kagome at the western lands, but never got to fulfill that promise because of her taijiya training. She remembered the day her new baby brother was born and how excited she was. And she remembered the horrible day from 10 years ago. The day Naraku and the bandits ambushed the taijiya village that had an alliance with the western lands. She remembered how her family and friends were killed. She remembered how Naraku took control over her little brother Kohaku and used him to stab her in the back. She remembered being carried away and tossed in a dungeon where she had reunited with Kagome…

Sango started to tap Kagome's shoulder, but Kagome did not respond back. Then Sango started to shake Kagome, but she still did not respond back. Finally Sango took a deep breath and did a high-pitched whistle right into Kagome's ear.

Kagome jumped up, "Nani?"

"Finally you woke up sleeping beauty." Sango said.

Kagome smiled sheepishly, "I was awake… but my mind began to wander."

"Inuyasha, huh?" she asked.

Kagome nodded with a very weak smile. Sango just shook her head and sighed at her best friend.

"You just can't let him go can you? I know you love him but you have to let him go." Sango said.

"Why should I?" Kagome snapped back.

"10 years is a long time to wait Gome-Chan. For all you know he could have forgotten about you and moved on and get married, have some kids." Sango told her.

Kagome stood up with tears in her eyes, "How can you say that Sango?"

"I'm being realistic and logical about this situation Kagome!" Sango said.

"I made a promise!"

"Fine… you made a promise to Inuyasha. But, please enlighten me on how you're going to escape?" Sango asked.

"Escape?"

"Yes escape!" she yelled.

"From what?"

Sango spread her arms far apart, "From here! This hell hole!"

Kagome raised an eyebrow.

"How are you going to get from rags to riches Kagome?"

"Huh, nani?"

Sango sighed, "Inuyasha is the royal family of the western lands right?"

Kagome nodded.

"So how are you going to escape from being a maid here so you can be with Inuyasha?"

"I don't know." Kagome responded.

"Exactly… Now lets get to work before Kikyou flips." Sango said.

Kagome went to the bathroom to change into her maid uniform. But, the words Sango said still rang in her head.

"10 years is a long time to wait."
