A/n: YAY I'm back and my writer's block is almost all gone!!! I got this really nice note book which I'm writing the story in, I think on chapter 13 or something. But I have a question for you reviewer's do you want any of these characters in this story: Shippo, Kouga, or Sesshomaru? That's all!

Disclaimer: I don't, I repeat do not own Inuyasha and gang. God I hate doing these!


Chapter 8

Kagome woke up to a start. The sun was shinning birds were chirping, her arm was feeling great. Every thing in feudal Japan was right.

Kaede walked into the small hut. Wondering why it was so quiet, people should be up by now making breakfast, doing chores, but nothing it was dead silent.

"Kagome child, are ye awake yet?" Kaede called out into the disserted hut.

"Yes Lady Kaede, I'm awake." Kagome walked into the main room where Kaede was.

"Well good morning child, are ye ready for training yet? Or shall we wait till another day?" The old woman asked.

"Oh we can do it today. Sorry I was not here the other day. I was... having a weird day that's all. Just let me go change and we can go." Kagome left Kaede and changed into her normal wear, which was a white haori, and red hakama's, with her hair her let down. (A/n: The clothes are just like Kikyo's in the show. Not the hair though.)

Kaede sat down waiting for the young miko. She was an old lady in her 50's, ageing nicely. Her hair was completely grey and was quiet long, it come down to her butt. When Lady Kaede walked she walked with a hunched back. Kaede like Kagome was a miko or priestess, but she wasn't as strong as Kagome. When Kaede first sensed Kagome's strength she had very strong yet strange powers laying dormant in her. There was another power in her that was amplifying her own powers, but Kagome does not know of either powers yet. Not until one of the power's bloom.

Kagome walked out and told her she was ready to go.

Kaede and Kagome walk to the training field. The field was used for the demon slayers, monks, priestess' and other warriors to work on there skills. It was just a big field with targets and open space.

Kagome was a good archery girl and used some of her miko powers to in-force the arrows.

"Ok Kagome let's get started!" Kaede said. (a/n: I'm not going into detail on what happens, but pretty much she has Kagome work on barrios, spells, herbs and such!)

After lessons

It was around noon and Kagome was hungry.

"Ok Kaede, I'll see you tomorrow, Bye!" Kagome walked into her families hut. Sitting in the main room sat her Okan-san and little brother, Souta, started eating lunch. They were having some vegetable soup her Okan-san made.

Kagome sat next to Souta, ruffled his hair a bit, then grabbed a bowl of soup

"Arigoto, Okan-san" She said through a mouthful of soup.

"So Kagome how was it?" She asked.

"How was what? ...Oh! well Kaede said I'm improving a lot and my powers will take around a month or so to come." She said flatly.

"No, not that silly, I meant..." Mrs. Hig leaned to Kagome's ear "You and Inuyasha, how did it go?"

"MOM!" Kagome said blushing "Not while Souta's here!"

"I don't care, go and talk your girly talk! I'll just go play at Kohaku's house." And with that, the little boy was out to his friends hut.

"Ok tell me now!" she asked excitably

"Well, what's to tell, all we did was eat dinner, talked and he carried me home, nothing exciting." Kagome said very bluntly.

"Oh that's it then? No hugging or smooching?" She asked.

"OKAN-SAN! No we didn't do anything like that!" She said untruthfully.

"Oh ok, if you're sure. Well Kagome were running a bit low on wood and water, would you like to go get some?" Mrs. Hig asked.

"In the forest?" Kagome asked nervously.

"Yes in the forest" Mrs. Hig eyed her suspiciously. Kagome walked out of the hut.

"Umm...ok I guess" she answered as she walked straight for the forest.

'Okan-san knows Inuyasha is wondering here, so why does she make me come here? God! But then again I want to come and see him…just a minute where the hell did that thought come from?'

'You know you want him, you want to hug him, you want to kiss him…' Her crazy side went on.

'Shut up!' Kagome finished the discussion between herself.

Kagome started to pick up some fallen off branches, when she felt someone staring at her.

"Hello?" She asked keeping her eyes fixed on the branches she was holding.

"What are you doing here?" he asked snaking his arm around her waist.

"Oh umm… hi Inuyasha, just picking up some fire wood that's all" She said blushing at his actions.

"Would you like help?" he asked.

"Umm… sure, if it's not that hard for you" Kagome said.

"Yeah like anything's hard for me!" Inuyasha said very full of himself.

He leaped out of her reach and found a tree; it was a farley good size tree too. Inuyasha flexed his long, sharp demon nails and in seconds cut the tree into 50 small logs like a breeze all landing in one neat pile.

Kagome was speechless. He had just cut a whole tree!

"Th...thank you, umm could you help me carry them to my hut so I can drop the logs off and grab some buckets?" she asked.

"Feh! Whatever!" He said lifting all 50 logs in both hands.

Goggling at his strength she completely forgot on what she was doing but only one thought was in her mind.

'God he's hot.'

"We going?" Inuyasha asked.

"Uh huh."

Kagome and Inuyasha made there way back to her hut and dropped the logs next to the hut, while Kagome picked up the four buckets. She waited for Inuyasha until he came by her side and grabbed two of the buckets out of her hands, and they headed to the river.

Once they reached the river they filled all four buckets up, full of, no duh, water. The buckets were filled so they decide just sit on the shore and relax with there feet in the cool water.

"Ahh it's so nice out." Kagome said looking to the sky.

"Yeah." Inuyasha said. He let he's eye's wonder to her arm. "Hey, how's your arm?"

"A lot better! Take a look." She lifted her sleeve up and showed him the skabbed bite mark.

"… thanks to you Inuyasha." She said lightly blushing. Inuyasha turned his head so she wouldn't see him blushing and so he was facing the river. He saw something moving in the water and realized it was a fish. He turned and faced Kagome again.

"Bet you I can catch that fish."

Inuyasha rolled up his hakama's and put the outer part of his haori further on the shore and walked into the river.

He waited till the moment was right then… he slipped on a rock and fell face first in the shallow water. All Kagome could do was laugh as hard as she could at the poor wet puppy. Once her laughs had subsided she decided to give him a hand. She stood up rolled her hakama's up and walked over to him and reached out to him. He grabbed her hand but instead of standing up he pulled her in as well. Both of them sat there in the water soaked, splashing and laughing at each other.
