Also, if im bring in a character again (like Hinote) then at the top their name will be in this thingy: *whoevers name* Ok so…enjoy!

Disclaimer: -tries to secretly grab Inuyasha while Rumiko isn't looking- -Inuyasha turns and glares and I back away- So obviously I don't own him! –sticks tongue out at Inuyasha-

HPOV (Hinote)

As I swiftly glided through the trees, I couldn't help but think about Sesshomaru. I had this weird feeling in my gut the second I saw him. It looked as if he had that same feeling.

I couldn't wrap my head around what that feeling was. It was like I wanted to constantly be around him. I shook my head and smiled.

I decided that I was going to go back and have a talk with him.

IPOV (Inuyasha in present time?)

I sat up in the tree looking out to the sky. I could tell that Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were staring at me but I just didn't acknowledge them.

I couldn't understand how randomly at times, a new memory would pop in my head with Kagome in it. Memories of me and mother traveling, suddenly turned into a memory of Kagome, Sesshomaru, my mother, and I traveling. I just couldn't understand it.

Sesshomaru had visited yesterday claiming the same thing. How at random times, old memories would just change. He said that one memory was of him coming to our campsite and seeing Kagome…and then decided to travel with us because of the weird reaction he got out of her.

I growled and shook my head.

"Keh! Nothing makes any more god damn sense!" I yelled. I leaped from the tree and began walking out towards the Bone Eaters Well. I sat down beside the railing and leaned my head against the side.

"Kagome, where are you?"

KPOV

As we continued our journey after we met up with Hinote, I began to think about Inuyasha.

Inuyasha, I wish I could see you. I miss you so much. I miss all of you…but you most of all.

"Kagome? Are you alright, dear?" Izayoi asked.

I looked at her and nodded.

"Yeah, just fine."

She looked at me with concern and then nodded.

"Alright, well then lets carry on. I want to try to get to at least a good clearing but a village would be better," she said, as she walked on.

I continued walking in silence until we came to a cleared out piece of grass. It was already dusk so we began making camp.

Sesshomaru walked off into the woods and Inuyasha walked off in the other direction.

Izayoi sat down and began preparing the fire as I also sat down on a log.

After she had the fire going, she turned to me and got that concerned look on her face again.

"So, tell me what was really bothering you today," she said.

I sighed. "Its just…I really miss Inuyasha," I said.

"You mean the one in your time?"

I nodded.

"Yeah, I bet you do. Im not surprised. Kagome, I will help you as best I can but I can't make any promises. Even though I have never seen you or your Inuyasha reactions together, I have seen your actions around this Inuyasha and I can tell you care for him deeply. I know you may not act the same as you do around your Inuyasha but you still care for this one. I want you two to be together. So, im going to help as best as I can," she said.

I smiled. "Thanks Izayoi. I also may have some idea as to who might have done this."

She looked at me curiously. "Who?"

"W-well, there's this evil demon in my time named Naraku. I have a feeling that he wanted to keep me and Inuyasha separated because in my time, Inuyasha, me, and three other friends are the greatest fighters in the land. So it only makes sense that he would want us separated so that we are weakened," I said.

She looked thoughtful for a moment and then nodded.

"Yes, that seems reasonable. I think I might know how to help you. I know a great magician/demon and he might be able to lift the curse long enough for you to slip through. Although, the journey there is a tad bit longer than to my village, if you're willing to go the extra length," she said.

"Yes! Of course! Oh, thank you Izayoi!"

I ran over to her and hugged her.

She laughed. "Its nothing, Kagome. Im glad I could help," she said.

Although little did Kagome and Izayoi know, Little Inuyasha had overheard their entire conversation.

"Kagome loves…my future self?" he asked himself.

The next morning, we all woke up in a hurry and began our journey again.

About a hour after we began our journey, a village came into sight.

But before we could get to the village, we noticed a cat half-demon lurking behind the trees, spying on the village.

She had long black hair that came down to her waist while it was in a high ponytail but there's not telling how long it was when it was down. She had on long blue pants with a blue shirt that came up her back and tied where her shoulder blades were. She also had a silver katana hooked on her waist.

I walked up behind her and tapped her. She slightly jumped and turned around.

Her eyes were dark blue and the slits were like a cats. She also had little cat ears on top of her head like Inuyasha had dog ears.

"Oh, hello. I didn't hear anyone coming. I guess I was too preoccupied to notice," she said.

"Hi. Um which by the way, why are you spying on the village?" I asked.

She laughed.

"Oh, its nothing. Im just curious as to how a human village works. If I even get close, they panic… so I stay my distance and watch," she said.

I laughed.

"Oh, ok. Well, my name is Kagome."

"Mine is Carina," she said. She smiled.

"Well, as much fun as this was, I have to go back to my family. Bye!"

She quickly ran away and I turned back around to join the group.

Me, Izayoi, and Inuyasha continued on into the village as Sesshomaru stayed in the woods.

Izayoi found us a room and we all went in to get some rest.

SPOV

As I waited in the forest for the next morning to come, I heard the rustling of leaves in front of me.

I moved my hand over my current sword, Toshiwakai (which means young since Sesshomaru is young at this time), and stared intently at that spot.

Then Hinote glided out of the bushes with a smirk on her face.

"Did I scare you?" she asked.

I scoffed.

"No one can scare this Sesshomaru. I was just prepared in case someone wanted to battle."

She sighed. "Whatever you say."

She sat down in front of me. I turned my head the the side to look at the moon.

"Um, Sesshomaru, can I ask you something about the time we met?" she asked.

I shifted my eyes toward her to show that I was listening.

"Ok well when I saw you, I sort of felt a pull towards you. Like I needed to be with you. Did you feel anything?" she asked.

I stayed silent for little bit, contemplating on whether or not I should tell her the truth. Finally I decided I should.

"Yes. This Sesshomaru did feel a 'pull' toward you. I felt the need to protect you and…"

She rolled her hands as if to say continue.

I looked away.

"This Sesshomaru wishes not to say that word. Not yet at least."

She sighed.

"Fine. At least I got that much. Well im glad that you said that. I like you very much Sesshomaru."

I turned my head towards her and gave a small smile.

She smiled a huge smile in return and I chuckled.

Slowly, I leaned my head toward her and she started leaning her head towards mine.

Finally, our lips met.

We continued that kiss for a while and then she pulled back.

She smiled and stood up.

"Well, so long for now Sesshomaru." She winked and jumped into the trees.

I growled a little growl and then smirked.

"Hn."

AN: Whew! I think that was a pretty good chapter. What do you think? Review and tell me!
