Chapter 3

After explaining everything to Sango, Miroku and Kaede, Kagome made her way towards the sacred tree. She left her family back with her second family to get to know each other; it's weird to see her two families together. Soon she makes it to the tree; Kagome places her hands on the old bark of the tree. It is hard enough to believe that this tree is still alive in her time, well what was her time until everything happened.

"Why did this all happen to me?" Kagome says to no one in particular.

All of a sudden Kagome is hit with an awful pain in her head. The pain is so bad that it brings Kagome to her knees. Suddenly images start to pop into her head, visions of her past.

Flashback

Five year old Kagome stares at the person in front of her, the young prince of the Western Lands and her best friend, Sesshomaru. She smiles a toothy grin at him. "So what you want to do today, Sessho," Kagome asked?

Sesshomaru smiles down at her (Note: Don't die, Sesshomaru can smile.) "What do you want to do today, Kagome," asked the 7 year old Sesshomaru.

"To stay with you."

Kagome climbs into Sesshomaru's lap and cuddles her head against his neck. Sesshomaru wraps his arms around Kagome's tiny frail body. Kagome may be young in humans years at the age of five, but she is wise beyond her years. She knows that there is a war coming between her father's Lands and another land. She also knew that Sessho's father is coming to aid her father.

Kagome has never told Sessho but she has a small girlish crush on him. He is the only boy her father lets her around. One night she overheard her father and Lord Inutaisho talking about Sessho and her and something about an arranged marriage, but she didn't know what that meant.
For the rest of the day, Kagome chased Sesshomaru around and played ball. Kagome's father has been teaching her how to control her demon side, while her mother is helping her with her Miko powers.

Kagome's father is a very powerful Snow Demon while her mother is a half breed, her mother is powerful Snow Demoness, even though her father is a Priest.

Kagome looks down at Sessho. They are high up in a tree when the both hear Kagome's father yell. "Kagome, Sesshomaru, come into the castle right now please."

"Coming Father." Kagome yells.

Kagome and Sesshomaru jump out of the tree they were in, the head straight for the palace doors where Kagome and Sesshomaru's fathers are standing.

Kagome smiles sweetly up at them, then looks only at her father. "What did you want, father?" She asks.

"The men from the other lands are approaching. You will both be much safer inside of the palace. Now both of you head upstairs."

"Be careful father." Kagome says.

Kagome jumps up to her father's level and wraps her arms around his neck to give him a hug, he hugs her right back then after a few minutes places her on her feet on the floor.

With that Kagome and Sesshomaru head up stairs where Kagome's mother, her new baby brother Souta and her grampa would be waiting.

End of Flashback

Kagome places her hands on her head. The terrible pain shoots throughout her head as she tries to remember more of what happened that day. The last thing she remembers is her and Sesshomaru going upstairs to meet her family.

"Why can't I remember any more?" Kagome growls out in frustration.

Kagome still can't believe that she has a crush on Sesshomaru and they were that close when they were young. Kagome is still mad at her mother and her father for putting her in an arranged marriage with Sesshomaru. He is mister "I have I stick up my **" to her, he probably doesn't even want to marry her. Hell, he has tried to kill her a couple of times.

Kagome sits still under the shade of the Sacred Tree until the pain subsides and she is finally able to stand back up again. She places a hand against the tree for support until she is stable enough.

"A walk would do me some good." She says to herself.

Kagome then heads deeper into the Forest of Inuyasha, she knows it's dangerous to travel alone in the forest. But hell she is a demon and she is going to be damn if anything is going to stand in her way. After a few peaceful minutes of walking an ogre demon steps out of the trees right in front of Kagome. "Give me the Shikon Jewel." It growls out.

"Over my dead body." Kagome yells.

"If you wish."

The ogre demon jumps for Kagome but with speed that can rival Sesshomaru's, she dodges the attack and jumps onto its back. Kagome pierces her clawed hands straight through its back, letting acid drip into the demon, instantly killing it. Ever since transforming into her demon form, Kagome has felt even more powerful and fearless than ever. Kagome jumps off of the rotting demons body and back onto the path she was following.

Soon Kagome looks up after feeling a couple faint auras. She finds Kikyou's soul collectors floating over head, heading the same way she is. Only, they are not empty handed, they have souls, meaning Kikyou is nearby. Kagome starts running to keep up with the soul collectors. Using her Miko powers, she makes her aura and scent disappear to hide in the forest unknown. Soon the soul collectors dissipate and Kagome breaks through a hidden barrier.

Kagome follows the soul collectors a little farther until she can soon hear Kikyou's voice speaking to someone else. As she gets closer she recognises the other voice to be Inuyasha's. Kagome hides behind a tree and peaks around the corner, what she finds almost makes her want to throw up. There is Kikyou pushed up against a tree naked with Inuyasha pounding into her.

Kagome quickly whips her head back around and tries to block out their moans. How could Inuyasha do that to her? To chose a dead miko who pinned him to a damn tree for 50 years over her, a living person who loves him.

'Oh Inuyasha.'

Kagome tries her best to hold back tears from falling, there was no way she was going to let that god forsaken half breed see her cry. Kagome feels something coming to the surface, anger, hate, sadness. She soon feels herself losing control. Kagome lets her beast emerge and she jumps around the tree and looks straight at Inuyasha and Kikyou. She lets out a growl that makes Inuyasha and Kikyou jump apart and look at her. Inuyasha's eyes go wide.

"Kagome..." He says in a nervous voice.

"Yes Inuyasha. This is the last time you will betray me." Kagome growls out.

Kagome blindly jumps towards Inuyasha, claws ready to kill him. But something wraps around her waist and holds her back. Things start to go black but she has enough strength to see who is holding her.

"Father..." Was all she is able to get out before she blacks out.
