Reunited and new hope
.The sun was rising.It was a beautiful sunrise that came much to soon.When Kagome noticed Inuyasha wake up she turned to walk away.The only reason she watched them everynight was to make sure Shippo was safe. She knew Sango,Miroku,Kirara,and Inuyasha were fine without a protector but Shippo was just a child. She heard Inuyasha speaking and went back to her original hiding place behind a tree right at the front of the forest.(AN:i just realized something,trees and Kagome usually come hand in hand. I'm serious she hides behind trees,sits in them with inu,crys by them,stands on them,sits on the roots,touches them,everything.its quite odd. oh well.)
WITH INUYASHA/INU POV
I woke up and thought I heard something in the Western lands but turned to see nothing. (AN:Kagome was already turned around so she didnt notice)
I went and woke everyone up and said "Sango I want you to take Kirara and search from the skies,I'll search on the ground and Miroku and Shippo you do whatever you do when we look for people. Got it?Get it?Good!Now let's go find Kagome!"I ran off while Kirara took to the air with Sango. Miroku and Shippo just sat there. 'I really do wonder what they do when we search for people...oh well!'
WITH SHIPPO AND MIROKU/SHIPPO POV
"So Shippo whatcha wanna do today?"Miroku asked as he turned to me. "I dunno what do YOU wanna do?" I asked "I dunno."Was his simple reply then we both said in unison "LETS TALK ABOUT HOW STUPID INUYASHA IS!"We both smiled and agreed and got to work on making fun of our hanyou friend.Yep this is what we did everytime the others searched for people or left us alone together.
WITH INUYASHA/INUYASHA POV
I continued running blindly since Kagome's scent vanished at the enterance. 'I wonder why I can't smell,hear,or see her anywhere...well Kikyo IS a master at being consealed while in hiding maybe Kagome learned a few things from that and now she is HARDER to find since she doesn't have those damn soul collectors.'I let out a heavy sigh and heard a scream followed by alot of thumps.
I ran in that direction and saw Kagome in a different kimono than the last time I saw her. This kimono was from the feudal era not her era and she was wearing my robe of the fire rat over her haori. 'Keh!guess the stupid girl hasn't gone home since then.' She was just walking then the ground gave out under her making her fall forward. She protected her face with her arms which resulted in her right arm getting a huge gash in it when she started to tumble down the edge of the hill.
Then I noticed the end of the hill was a cliff.
I was going to help her but I saw her stop herself right before her legs went over the edge. Apparently she had grown much stronger than the last time I saw her. Then the ground under her gave away and she grabbed onto the edge of the cliff with her left hand while the rest of her dangled freely over the abyss.
I saw her looking down for a while before she let go and I screamed "KAGOME!"I jumped forward and saw her sitting on a part of the cliff that shot outwards glaring at me.I jumped to where she was and reached out to help her but she pulled away.
"I don't need YOUR help. I don't need ANYONE'S help. I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself.So leave me be. I have changed since you last saw me but you haven't changed at all. You still visit Kikyo,hit Shippo,fight with Miroku, and annoy Sango. Followed by your constant reminder to make them feel guilty about the fact that they didn't stop me from going to the grove that night. Don't you get it by now?I didn't want you to look for me. I didn't want you to come for me. I wanted you to leave me be.I have been in hiding since that night.I actually sit and watch over the campsite everynight to make sure Shippo is safe. I knew you were watching the whole time I was falling down the cliff. I chose not to acknowledge you but you just HAD to be persistent and follow me here. Well news flash I don't NEED anyone to protect me anymore. I haven't NEEDED protection since a month after I went into hiding and I haven't WANTED protection since I saw you and Kikyo that night in the grove. So just leave me be. I would like to take Shippo back now though. He will be staying with me from now on. Good-bye Inuyasha."
After her little speech I just stared at her. 'She doesn't want my protection?She just stayed near by for Shippo?She doesn't want us?No. She doesn't want ME.Who would?I'm just a filthy half-breed.' 'You lie. Mate want you gone because you cheat on mate. You leave mate alone. You leave mate for dead girl. That why mate leave.' 'Who are you!?' 'I am youkai.Your youkai.Now make mate better.' 'But Kagome doesn't want me and she isn't my mate!' 'but you want girl be mate.' 'KEH!' 'Me right, you wrong,make mate better.'
After my little arguement with my youkaiI kneeled beside her and licked her wound. I saw her eyes widen in shock and heard her suprised gasp when I did such. "Inuyasha what are you-"I cut her off by saying "Youkai powers. My saliva can heal wounds so I'm healing your arm."I kept licking it and she let me. Maybe there's hope for us yet.
AN:sorry if this was a lame chappie but im sick and i wont be better for a while so im gonna write while im sick which may result in some PRETTY bad chappies so please forgive me. anways JA NE!
