T.A: hello peoples…. I am so glad I got so many hits for this story, I am glad you guys like it! Only it would have been better if I had a few reviews, but I guess you can't have everything now can we?! But I hope you like this new chap. The story is getting really intense!

Kasha: Baka!!!!

Toxic: leave me alone, Kasha!

Inu: it's your story so its your fault.

It could have been hours that he had been standing there as the sun peeked over the horizon for Kagome appeared in front of him, eyes filled with question as she stood in front of him touching his face which caused him to stir.

"Are you ok… still upset about Kasha?" she asked pulling him into a hug.

He stepped away from her a little and looked at her with determined eyes.

"I have to go find her, Kagome, please forgive me."

"But….I don't understand, why go look for someone who doesn't care or want you?"

Inuyasha glared at her the remark she made hurt him a little and it showed as he pulled his hakama top closer to him.

"Because….I owe her that much." he said as he raced off into the direction he sensed Sesshomaru went, as he disappeared into the forest Kagome looked at herself in the reflection of the river and sighed.

"what did you do to her? have you done something so repulsive that you cant let us in to help you… you cant do this alone Inuyasha." heading to the campsite where the others were.

"Guys…we have to find Inuyasha and help him."

Sango looked at Miroku and Shippo as if Kagome has gone crazy.

"Why…can't he take care of himself like always?" Shippo asked as he pulled an apple out of his pocket and started eating it.

"No…I think he has gotten himself into big trouble that has to do with Kasha and he thinks he owes her….we need to help him."

The three looked at each other and then back at their friend, all three simultaneously shook their heads in agreement to help their poor love sick Miko, Sango stood up and looked at her little demon Kirara and smiled at her as she transformed bigger; the four jumped on Kirara and they headed for the direction Kagome said that Inuyasha headed into. As they flew by clouds and birds Kagome thought to herself.

"what has gotten into him lately, it seems like since that Kasha girl had came he became someone else; like he's in love with her or something." pulling loose strands of hair behind her ear.

The gang continued their journey, while down below Inuyasha was standing in front of his brother and Kasha, she had a look of fear in her eyes as she saw Sesshomaru inching near her.

" zanryuu!!!!" yelling as she pushed herself away from him.

"Speak right before I make you."

"Go…away, leave me alone!!!"

Inuyasha was shocked that she knew proper Japanese, but also that he taught her; his thoughts burst as he heard a yell coming from Kasha and saw that Sesshomaru had grabbed her by the hair and threw her in front of him.

"Now…tell her why, Inuyasha, why you abandoned her."

Her eyes almost became so small you couldn't see them, her heart raced as tears gushed out as she stared at him.

He looked at her and looked t his brother he couldn't believe that he was making him do this to her, telling her the reason for what he did would be something that even time wouldn't even heal the pain she will feel after he tells her.

"INUYASHA!!!!!"

As Kirara landed near him they all got off and hurried towards him, Kagome noticed the young demon girl on the ground and soon noticed Sesshomaru she didn't understand why he wanted Kasha; in her opinion she was just a low class demon. She walked over to Inuyasha keeping an eye on the demon girl, she noticed the fear in her hanyou's golden eyes as he stared back at Kasha on the floor; Kagome didn't understand why Sesshomaru was there and why he wanted Kasha.

"Sesshomaru! What do you want Kasha for…can't you leave her alone?" Kagome yelled as she pulled out her bow and arrow.

"I don't have to explain myself to the likes of you." pulling out his tensaga from his side.

Miroku and Sango took out their weapons as well, Miroku with his sacred staff and Sango with her giant boomerang, standing next to their friend hoping to protect his former friend.

"Go away….I don't want you here, Inuyasha!"

Kagome was surprised she could hear her talking proper Japanese to them.

"Why, Kasha, why wont you let us help you?' letting her bow fall loose in her hands.

She looked away tears flowing down her cheeks as she stood and walked back to Sesshomaru's side never laying eyes on them.

"I've asked for help…and only got burned…never again."

"But why?! I thought you two were best friends?!" tears falling from her eyes, she placed her finger and caught one, looking at it like not believing it.

She felt sorry for the girl, best friends should always stay friends, no matter what. She needed to know what was it that was so bad that made her hate Inuyasha.

"No…we weren't just friends…well not to me anyways… I loved him and he betrayed me."

Inuyasha's eyes widened at her reply, he looked to the ground, holding his chest as he felt the sorrow and guilt after all those years. The gang looked at their hanyou friend with incredulity and pulled their weapons down at their sides, feeling no need to help him anymore.

"What did you do, Inuyasha?" chocolate eyes glaring at him as she stepped closer to him, hand resting on his shoulder.

"…" nothing more escaped his mouth as he looked back up and into her eyes filled with neglect.

"I have no more reason to be here, Kasha." turning around and putting his sword back at his side and pulling her by the arm with him.

Just as he said this a Back Flash wave was thrown his way, causing Kasha to be thrown the other direction hitting the ground with a low "thump". Sesshomaru looked back taking out his blade glaring at his little brother.

"you are not taking her!"

A small smile formed at the corner of Sesshomaru's mouth as he charged at him, swinging his sword and catching him on the side as blood slipped down.

As he stood his ground he looked over at Kasha, she was sitting on the grass holding her arm which was bleeding.

"Is that how you protect her, making her bleed?"

Inuyasha looked over, seeing the crimson liquid seeping down her arm and the scared look on her face, his eyes widened as he noticed her laying down on the grass curled up holding her arm as her hair pooled over her face. Kagome pulled back a sacred arrow, aiming it at him.

"Don't make me do this!"

As she pulled the arrow something seemed to make everything worse, causing the arrow to strike Kasha in the shoulder. Everyone stopped looking at her as she pulled it out of her shoulder and looked up at them.

"Kasha?" she questioned as she stared at the young demon girl.

"NO!!!!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran towards her

Her eyes started to roll back, her hair twirling crimson and purple markings partnered on her body; she began coughing up blood.

"What did you do, Kagome!!!" he tried to reach her but she drew up a barrier causing him to be pushed away.

"Leave…me alone….Master Sesshomaru please take me home." coughing up more blood and finally passing out.

"KASHA!!!"

Sesshomaru flashed stepped over to her unconscious body and placing her over his shoulder, Inuyasha stood up looking at the way his brother showed affection for the way he placed her on his shoulder; for some reason he felt jealous.

"Sesshomaru…where is her jewel?" Sango asked as she stepped forward.

"I…do not know." disappearing into the horizon.

"This is bad." Kagome whispered as she pulled her bow and arrow away, she walked over to her hanyou and helped him up.

"What happened between you two?"

He looked at her hearing what she had said but not really registering it in his head, all he could think about was the image of Kasha in the state that she was in, eyes closed tight, barrier pulled up hair turning; he had never seen her like that…only once.

They had been laying in the grass together, her head gently placed on his lap as he played with her hair. She was laughing at him as he tried to teach her English.

"Can you imagine…..Watashi, anata…in a little house in the mountains…" she had blushed

"Married? I didn't think demons could get married…but I guess."

She stood up, looking worried eyes filled with fright.

"What…. I….will marry you…..Kasha?!"

She began to grab her head, tears forming at the corner of her eyes, her hair turning a purple. Inuyasha quickly grabbed her pulling her into his arms glancing at her in pain.

"KASHA!!! What's wrong!!!!"

As he stood up with her in his arms, he noticed the blood on the grass from a wound on her leg that reopened, he quickly put two and two together and raced back to their home, where hopefully Kaji would be there to help; as he raced back his mind what if they were married his face blushed at the thought because he had known that she had been with no other and that would make him her first.

"What happened?"

His thoughts burst as he looked up at his red headed friend, he was much taller then he and more built, for he was a year older than the two; his sea blue eyes stared at his sister as he carried her on to the futon that lay on the ground pulling out a blue gem from his wrist that dangled around on a bracelet. He hung it over her forehead and silently chanted a incantation that to this day he vaguely remembered; she soon slowly went back to her former state.

"If I was not here you would need to give her blood….if you can not find her crystal." looking away from her to stare back at him with glowing eyes.

"Why?"

"I do not know… she has always been like this…but listen well young hanyou… if she is away from her crystal long enough for this form to transform completely then all hell will break loose." pulling loose strands of crimson behind his ear.

"I don't understand…Kaji… what will happen?"

"I don't know… maybe the same as me when I do not have my blue gem… but all I know is that she could destroy us all."

"INUYASHA!!!!!"

His thoughts burst as he heard Kagome scream his name, bursting the faint memory that played over in his head; he turned his attention to her and noticed that she was being held by the neck of a demon. The demon was tall, his face was covered the only thing showing was his sea blue eyes and faint strands of red hair falling out; he held her by the neck up against the tree, squeezing as he demanded where Kasha was. Miroku and Sango, ran to her aid but was pushed back with a strong barrier that was surrounding them, Sango threw her Boomerang at the barrier to see if she could break it but it was no use. Inuyasha stood looking at the sight before him, a little shocked as the wave of the familiar demon energy that surrounded the demon. He quickly charged at the two breaking the barrier only because the demon switched his attention to him, dropping Kagome on the ground; as the two charged at one another, Inuyasha could see the tribal tattoos patterning his shoulders and stopped looking at him. The demon didn't stop took this as a way to strike him in the face with a flamed fist. The young hanyou was thrown to the side from the mass strength coming form the unknown demon, as he look up from his spot on the ground the demon stood over him, glaring at him with his glowing eyes ready to give him the final attack. Kirara fired a fire blast at the demon, causing his coverings to burn off, Inuyasha could know see his face, his eyes shrank as he saw the familiar face of his friend.

'Kaji?"

He looked back at the young demon that lay on the grass, hate fueled his gaze. His appearance hadn't changed much,. He was as tan as ever like his sister, his fire red hair only draped his shoulders, he had a scar running across his left eye and that caught Inuyasha's attention. As he stood from the ground he looked at his friend, not seeing the lucky go happy attitude he knew so well.

"Kaji….what are you doing here?'

Kagome looked scared eyes filled with tears as she noticed Inuyasha's face as a smile crept upon his face.

"Great…another friend from his past." pulling her arrow and bow into her back pack.

Toxic; Wow…that was a long chapter…sorry it was so long! But I am guessing you guys liked it right? Anyways what's going to happen once or if Kaji joins the group? Will he tell the gang the horrible deed his past friend Inuyasha commented? So you know what to do…REVIEW!!!! Thank you!

Sayounara!!!
