Thunder boomed at the sight of anything, it was pouring. Everyone was stuck inside, it was supposed to be sunny but of course it rained. The weather channel couldn't explain it, but they were ordering people to stay in their homes or in a secure building in case something bad happened in the serious storm.

"We are all sleeping here in the living room so get a lot of blankets and anything you need for bed to be ready." Mama announced.

The little kids all were fast to sleep; they hated bad weather it made them drowsy. Mama took a couch to sleep on, while Seijuro took another one, Rin was fast asleep in the small one.

Megumi wore shorts and a t, her hair was braided down her back so it wouldn't get tangled. Sango was in pajama pants and a tang-top, her hair was down with a pony tail at the end. Kouru wore a dress that went to her knees; her hair was in its pony tail. Kagome left her hair down like always and was wearing a big shirt that came to her thighs.

Miroku wore his boxers and a shirt as did Sano and Sesshomaru and Inuyasha and Kenshin. It was funny to see their legs, accept for Sano.

"So I was thinking we all watch a horror movie mania!" Miroku said.

"Alright." Kenshin smiled.

"Okay, but don't tell me the movie or I'll freak out." Kagome warned.

"First we need to figure out how we are going to sleep." Megumi said being organized.

Kagome sat next to Kenshin, right in front of Rin's couch which was in the middle. They each had a pillow on their backs and shared a big blanket. Inuyasha sat next Kagome and joined their group, he always liked being around her.

Sesshomaru was isolated; he went behind Seijuro's couch, which was the farthest away from the TV. Sango and Miroku cuddled by Mama's couch, they were engaged and saw nothing wrong with it at all. Kouru, Sano, and Megumi got close to the TV and laid on their bellies. The little kids dominated the Seijuro's couch area. Mama and Seijuro went to sleep, not wanting to watch this.

The feeling of fear came to Kagome's belly. The movie had started.

Kenshin looked down as he saw Kagome trembling, she was scared. In the movie a guy's head had blown up. She took his hand and held it for dear life. Inuyasha was so infatuated with the movie he moved up to the TV.

"No don't go in the closet…" Kagome whispered. The person walked in and got gagged, Kagome grabbed on to Kenshin now, he didn't know what to do so he held her. Everyone at their own times glanced at Kagome; they couldn't help but smile at her in Kenshin's arms.

"Kag-san?" He looked at her.

"Tell me when it's over." She mumbled, she dug her head in his shirt.

"You're scared, aren't you?" he mused.

"No, I just don't like the actor playing in the movie." She lied.

"You don't need to lie for me Kag-san." He said huskily.

"A-alright." She blushed, good think it was dark.

She looked up to see his face, so many emotions stood there. Humor, friendly, worry, honesty, and more she couldn't classify. He smiled at her antic to try to watch the movie, it was funny. She forced herself to watch and every time something scary happened, her eyes got big or she stared at an object until the part was over.

"You'll have nightmares." He reminded.

"Kenshin you are sooo not helping." She whined.

"Wow…Kagome." He laughed.

Kagome calmed as soon as the movie ended.

"That was okay." Sango smiled.

"It could be better." Kouru decided.

"I hated it." Kagome said blankly, making everyone laugh.

The door bell rung, Kagome got up and opened the door. The figure collapsed.

"Kikyo!" Kagome knelt down to her side. Inuyasha and the others all ran in. Kikyo was washed up, she was whiter than usual and she was soaked, she looked like a corpse.

"Kikyo!" Inuyasha yelled. He picked her up, pushing Kagome in the progress. Kagome went back and hit her head on a wall.

"Kagome revive." A woman said.

Kagome awoke, she was completely clueless, she than was looking at the her walking mirror, Kikyo.

"Kikyo, what happened?" Kagome asked. There was a sacred shield around them, so no one could hear or come in.

"Kagome, you hit your head last night." Kikyo said. "Megumi couldn't do anything to treat a miko so I took it on my own hands."

"Thank you, but why are you here?" Kagome asked.

"I came back for Inuyasha, he's my soul mate. Now my life has no purpose so I wish to live with you, learn from you. You are a master priestess, and I want to be your apprentice. You will teach me the ways of your time and life style so I can be with Inuyasha. I do not want to take him away from you, Kagome. But you must understand, I cannot make Inuyasha love me less. I cannot make him love you more; it is his heart that he chooses to give. He will pick me, and you will go through pain. We are different yet the same. So I ask you to leave him alone." Kikyo said.

"I can't promise anything. My heart is what it is, you don't choose who you fall in love with, Kikyo. I'll never leave him, we have a bound not even you can break and I love him for loving me in a way you can't have. He is yours and that's the sad truth about it. But I'll never stop being with him for you, he'll always be my friend as I'll be to him because I love him. You can have him; I see more clearly than ever that you and he are going to be together. And I can't stop that, no matter what hell I go through. Destiny has been unkind to me. Perhaps fate wanted me to be miserable. I will never train you, but I can help you, I'm not better than anyone. Kikyo you are my enemy, yet you are my closest friend."

"Thank you, Kagome. You are a saint, Beautiful in every way thinkable." Kikyo smiled.

"Kikyo, make sure he's happy, okay?"

"You have my word."

Inuyasha barged in the room as soon as the shield was down. He was sure Kikyo would kill Kagome but instead he saw them hugging.

'They look like twins…' The thought circled around the room.

Kagome smiled Kikyo repeated. They were both beautiful, it was scary. The difference was that Kikyo looked older, mature, and full of elegance. While Kagome was a angel, young, full of life, childish, and innocent.

"Kenshin it's not nice to stare at Kagome." Megumi whispered in his ear making him blush.

"Your secret is safe with me." She smiled.

Kenshin gulped at fox-lady.
