'Character thought'

Previously, on Kagome's Return...

Inuyasha ran as fast as he could through trees and on the ground. 'This familiar scent..' He thought, approaching the Bone Eater's Well. He peered down inside the dark well, listening intently for any sounds. His ears twitched as her heard a slow breathing. Inuyasha extended his hand down into the well and grasped a smaller, softer hand. He yanked up a girl gently, and set her just outside of the well. He stared at her.

"Inuyasha... I'm sorry.." I whispered quietly, "Were you waiting for me?"

Inuyasha stared at me for a long few moments, and then asked with honest confusion, "Who are you?"

I stared at him for a few seconds, and then made a smile. "Inuyasha... that isn't funny, you know," I said, putting my hand on his chest. "Aren't you happy I'm back? Didn't you miss me at all?"

'I thought... maybe you thought of me as something more then a Shikon Jewel Finder.'

Inuyasha stepped back and looked at me as if I were a stranger. His eyes gave me a mixture of confusion and curiosity.

"I don't remember meeting you, but you smell familiar." Inuyasha finally said. "Who are you? Do you know me, or one of my friends?"

My smile faded. "Seriously, Inuyasha, this isn't funny. Don't make me regret coming back here." I threatened.

He stared incredulously at me. 'Is this woman for real?' He thought to himself.

"Look, I don't know who you think you are, or who you think I am in your mind, but don't take a threatening tone with me." Inuyasha said to me in a threatening way.

I scoffed. "I'll say whatever I want." I said defiantly. "These games after three long and painful years are--"

"KAGOME!" I heard a voice shout, and I turned just in time to catch little Shippou pouncing on my chest and neck.

"Shippou!" I smiled, giving him a big hug.

I looked to see Kirara, Sango, and Miroku rushing after me. I noticed a little bundle of black in Sango's arms, and a bundle of pink in Miroku's arms. When they got closer, I noticed they carried two adorable twin girls in their hands.

"Wow! You two have gotten together and everything, huh?" I said, a big smile on my face.

"Oh, Kagome! We're so happy to see you again!" Sango said, hugging me tight, though being careful to not smoother her daughter.

"Yes, we are.." I felt a hand on my bottom suddenly, and my eyes turned from happy to dangerous.

"Miroku..." I glared, and suddenly slapped him hard across the face. "You pervert!"

He put his hands up in surrender just as Sango was about to give me her daughters so she may beat him to a pulp. "Wait, wait!! I only did that to remind Kagome of good times.."

Sango rolled her eyes. "Sure."

The little girl in Sango's arms began to laugh. "Daddy's a pervert!"

The other little girl began to laugh with her, as Miroku struggled to convince everyone that he wasn't. And, just as before, no one would believe him.

"This is Sakura," Sango pointed to the daughter in Miroku's arms after he had finally settled down, "and this is Rei." She lifted the child in her own arms slightly.

I smiled. Seeing my friends again almost made me forget about Inuyasha...

...until I heard him clear his throat.

"What the heck is going of around here?" Inuyasha, having finally lost his patience, demanded. He did not conceal the irritation in his voice. "Who is this girl?"--No need to guess who the girl was--"And why is she so friendly with you?"

'Why is she so familiar, too..'

I glared at him. "Are you serious? You're STILL going on about not recognising me!? I swear, Inuyasha--"

"She's an old family friend." Sango suddenly cut in witha firm tone, making me momentarily quiet, "You met her once for a day... maybe that's why you don't remember her."

Inuyasha stared at Sango for what seemed to be forever (even though it was about a minute and a half), and then relented, letting his irritation go.

"Oh. Really?" He looked to me, and then shrugged, beginning to walk off. "Never mind, then."

Miroku looked to me, and I noticed not only his eyes were filled with sorrow for me, but Sango's and Shippou's, as well.

"Come with us, Kagome. We have something to tell you." Miroku said and he began to lead the way to their home.

Their house was quite cramped, though very cozy. I was given a brief tour and found that there was a very little living room (where they could cook also, though), two bedrooms, and a locked weapons room. Sango kept the door locked just in case the girls would wander inside. I sat down on the floor of their living room before a small table and watched Sango pour tea into three cups. Miroku sat across the table from me, watching for a moment outside his window to see his daughters chase Shippou all around outside.

Sango passed us each a cup, and then sat down next to her husband.

"Kagome... please try to forgive Inuyasha. It wasn't his fault for what happened." Sango said quietly.

"Inuyasha would never intentionally forget you in a million years." Miroku added.

I blinked at them. "What are you trying to say, Sango, Miroku? That Inuyasha really HAS forgotten me?"

A nod from Sango was all it took to shatter my heart into small, heavy pieces. I stared down into my cup of tea. 'He... forgot about me.' I thought miserably. 'Why Inuyasha? Why would you do that? Is it that I thought too much of the entire situation the whole time? You only thought of me as the Shikon Jewel finder, and nothing more?'

I forced myself to stop thinking of why when I realized was about to cry. I cleared my throat and quietly asked, "How?"

I heard Miroku's heavy sigh, and then he quietly told me, "Kikyo."

　

Oh. My. GOD!! Kikyo made Inuyasha forget! How? Why? What could she possibly gain from that?! And let's not forget how heartbroken Kagome is! Inuyasha no longer remembers her, or anything and everything they did. But she does. And she loves him. What will happen between them? The only way to find out is to review and comment! :D
