That was how the Detectives found her an hour later. Shivering at the bottom of a well. As the others watched, Hiei jumped down and scooped her into his arms. He jumped to the top and gently laid her on the ground. Kurama knelt down next to her and called out her name.
"Kagome. Kagome. Wake up!" Slowly her eyes fluttered and opened. A sob broke from her lips. "It's gone! He took it!" Kurama pulled her into his arms as she whimpered this over and over. He looked over her head at the three males watching them. Hiei's ruby eyes were narrowed and hard. Yusuke and Kuwabara both had amused smirks on their lips. Kurama rolled his eyes and looked down at Kagome.
"Kagome, calm down and tell me what's wrong." Kagome sniffed and took a deep breath.
"Katashi…he took the power out of the well. I can't go back to the past!" Koenma had told them all about her, the well, and her past adventures. He could feel the white hot pain in her aura. He felt awful for her. She had lost her friends, her family. Suddenly Kagome jerked out of his arms and stood up.
"Take me to Koenma." She demanded. The Detective stared at her in shock. Kurama stood up and took her hands.
"Kagome? Why do you need Koenma?" Kagome just shook her head and pleaded with her eyes. Kurama sighed. This woman would be the death of him. He glanced at Hiei. Yes, he was as good as dead.

Koenma stared at the miko. "You want to what?" Kagome leaned forward in her chair.
"I want to look at some files and books. I need to know why Naraku didn't die." Koenma was confused. "Kagome-sama…didn't YOU purify him? Why would you need to research it?" Kagome leaned back.
"It wasn't me. During the battle Midoriko took over my body. It was like I was in a deep sleep. When I woke up the battle was over and everyone looked so happy. I don't know how she destroyed Naraku." Koenma tucked his chin over hid folded knuckles, a serious expression on his face. The Detectives were oddly quiet.
"So you have no idea if he was purified? This is a problem. I agree, you should read whatever you can find on the subject." Kagome smiled at his agreement. "The Detectives will take you to the library. Tell me what you find out." Kagome nodded and rose from her chair.
"Now wait just a minute! Four people don't need to take her! I have things to do!" Yusuke yelled. Koenma sighed. "Kurama will take you, Kagome-sama. The rest of you may leave." Kagome waved to Yusuke and Kazuma as they left. Hiei was no where in the room. She felt a bit disappointed at that. She shook out of her thoughts when a hand nudged her shoulder.
Kurama smiled down at her. "Shall we go, milady?"

Kagome groaned and banged her forehead on the library desk. She had been reading books, files, and more books. None were helpful on the subject.
"Need any help?" Kagome jumped at the sound of Kurama's soothing voice. She gave a nervous chuckle and shook her head. "There's not much you can do. I'm giving up on this path. Maybe I should find someone…Sesshoumaru should still be alive!" Kagome's eyes began to water. Shippo could still be alive! Kurama wiped her eyes with his thumb.
"Have you tried to talk to Midoriko?" Kagome gave him a confused look. "Kurama, she died with the Shikon. I can't talk to her anymore." Kurama gave her a wry smile.
"Have you tried?"
XXXX
Kagome sat on her bedroom floor, contemplating. Could she still talk to her? She never had a reason to but now…Kagome closed her eyes. Why not try it? She took a deep breath and meditated. She felt her body become tired and her mind was floating. She could feel time slow and her conscious calmed. She opened her mind's eyes and gasped.
"Midoriko!"
