"So another journey.." Souta started as he watched his sister grab some stuff from her room. To him it seems like fate always messes with his sister. She can never be happy, without have a problem. He watched her stuff clothes into her bag she used to take with her from the past.

"I'm sorry Souta.. I'll be back i promise." She kissed his head as they walked down the stairs. Sakura and the others ready to go. Kagome's mom watched her as she went to the ninja. She sighed knowing her daughter was always fates toy, her dad also knew. But he had high hopes for Kagome and thought she could manage on her own somehow. "Alright Kagome. I guess I'll see you later dear." Her mother said. Kagome hugged her mother tightly before waving. "I will come back! Take care of Shippo for me!" She said as she walked next to her cousin. She didn't want to leave Shippo behind, but she didn't want him getting hurt.

"Where is your home?" Kagome asked Naruto. He looked but Kakashi answered. "Well when we turn this corner, we have to teleport to a forest." Kagome nodded. 'Wait teleport..'. Sasuke walked in thought. His mission was to protect to find out what the Akatsuki was up to and what they were looking for. He then finds out that his brother is after this girl with unusual powers, and this girl.. she's been though a lot. She's over protective, quiet and, unusual. But most of all, it intrigued him. He found her interesting somehow. Maybe it's the way she looks at him, blush and look away. No that's not it. Or could it be how she overpowered him, and took down Sakura with ease. Yeah. that's it. "Alright Kagome hold on!" Naruto said as he grabbed her by the waist. The team made a sign with their hands, and before she knew it they poofed into a forest.

"Wow.." Kagome said as she followed them. They walked for fifteen minutes, until they came upon huge gates with leaf signs on it. She gaped as men who dressed like Kakashi, walked up to them and greeted them.

"Hello! Welcome back!" One of them said. "Who's this?" They motioned toward her. "That's my cousin Kagome Higurashi. As to why she's here that's confidential." Naruto said. The guards nodded. "Well I'm sure Lady Hokage will be waiting on your report. See ya!" The they both went back to their posts." The ninja and Kagome walked through the gates. "Um, What's Hokage?" Kagome asked. "Well the Hokage is the leader of the village. The strongest ninja." Sakura explained. Kagome nodded taking in the info. She glanced around and noticed almost everyone around had on head bands. Markets were here and there as were homes and huge Mansions. "Don't worry Kagome, you will get used to all of this soon enough." Kakashi said through his reading.

Kagome hoped so. For her sake.

"Come in." She heard a lady say as the entered a office. Squad seven then bowed with a 'Hokage-sama.' Kagome flushed as the lady known as Hokage stared at her strangely. she had brown eyes and blonde hair the was pulled into two hanging ponytails. There was also another woman with black hair standing by her side. She was holding a pink pig.

"And who might this beautiful lady be?" The lady asked. Kakashi, who put his book away, rose from bowing as everyone else. "My lady this is Kagome Higurashi, she is Naruto's cousin. We found out recently that the Akatsuki organization is targeting her." The Hokage's eyes widened for a split second. "How?" Kakashi filled her in on the recent events including what happened with Sakura. The Hokage nodded. "Alright, Well Kagome Higurashi," Kagome straightened. "My name is Tsunade, i will be assigning you on watch. I hope you understand how your life is effective to this whole village." Kagome nodded. 'I'm effective to this whole village..' "Okay. I will be assigning you a place to stay, Any volunteers?" Kakashi shook his head. "I would but i share a room with Genma." Sakura also shook his head. "I live with my mother." Naruto was about to say something but Sakura stopped him. "She wouldn't want to stay in Naruto's either! It's a mess!" Sakura said. He pouted. Tsunade turned to Sasuke. Sasuke sighed. "I'll take her." Sakura looked at him. "I have the room at my compound."

Tsunade nodded. "Very well then. Kagome you are to stay with Sasuke at all times. We can't risk you bieng captured." Squad seven nodded as Kagome nodded hesitantly. 'Of all people him... Man i hope i stop dreaming...' Then they were dismissed.

It was about seven p.m when they were dismissed from Tsunade's office. They stood outside of the entrance.

"Well Kagome-itoko1 I'll see you tomorow. And Teme! Don;t you try anything with my cousin got it."

Sasuke would have hned. But he wanted to have a little fun with this. He smirked and said, "What if i do?" Naruto growled at him. "I'll rip your head off!" He shouted. Sakura shook her head as she said goodbye and dragged Naruto with her. Kakashi disappeared, because he had to do a missions report. Kagome gulped she was Left with him alone. Sasuke started to walk, she walked behind so she won't get lost. They walked for awhile until they came to a huge mansion. Kagome gaped at it. It held fans everywhere. "You really.. live here?" Sasuke took that as a dumb question. "If i didn't then why would we come here?" Kagome flushed as they walked inside. She left her shoes at the door and followed him through the house. It had so may rooms, but no one was there. She began to wonder why it was so empty. Along they way the past a room with huge doors. S?he stopped at them. 'I sense a lot of Trauma here.. blood lust, and death... what happened here?' She looked at the doors briefly before running to catch up to Sasuke.

They stopped at a room. "This is your room. There is a bathroom 2 doors down on the right and my room is right there next to it. Kitchen is around that corner and the training yard in to the right of the kitchen." Sasuke said with no problem. Kagome sunk the info into her ind so she won't get lost. He then walked toward where his room was.

"Wait!," She stopped him. "Thank you.." He waved without turning around, and kept walking.

"Finished!" She said quietly as she finished unpacking. The room was all black much to her liking. She glanced around and instantly got bored. Walking out of her room she started to walk around the huge mansion. She turned many of corners until she came to the room she sensed. Her hands shook as she reached for the handle. 'Should i even be doing this.. I'm totally violating his space, but my aura won't rest until i find out what's in here..' She pulled the handle as dust flew from the opening. She walked in slowly. She gasped at the sight on the floor there was dried up blood that stained the wood. Out linings of bodies lay almost all erased.. 'What is this..?'

"What are you doing in here!" Sasuke yelled. Kagome whipped around to see an angry Sasuke looking back at her.

"I was-"

"Who said you could enter here!" He yelled again this time his eyes changing to red with markings. Kagome backed away from his aura. It reminded her so much of Sesshomaru.

"Sasuke I'm sorry.. I was just curious.." Sasuke let out an angry sigh. "Keep your curiosity to yourself. Get out of here." He then moved out the door enough for her to get through. Kagome quickly went out and back to her room.

Sasuke slammed the corridor shut, and watched her run off. He had a feeling he made a big mistake yelling at her.
