Kagome sat down at the school's yard pensive. She couldn't yet phantom the idea that the sinister daiyoukai had managed to gain the upper hand at their science talks. She was the one born in this Era, and he was supposed to stay behind like the ignorant mass he lived with in the Feudal Era. He was not supposed to outsmart her or push these doubts into her. He was not supposed to meddle in her private affairs with Inuyasha, or with him, which were none, by the way. She did not like Sesshomaru and that was the only truth.
A pair of squirrels, fluffy tailed and jumpy personality, jumped down from a sakura tree nearby. She couldn't help but stare as the bigger one—probably male—sat straighter and gazed around them carefully. She smiled sadly. It seemed as if she just caught them mid-tryst and they were deadly afraid of being caught.
The young miko shook her head. Her eyes were glazed over, half in memories and half in dream land. She would love to be that female squirrel and only think about doing animal-things with Inuyasha. Then her life would be half-fulfilled.
A shrill snapped her out of her musings and Kagome's eyes flung towards the squirrels alarmed. A third squirrel, bigger than the other two, appeared and the male squirrel ran away leaving his small mate behind. The female ran as well, after been left alone to fend for herself, but the bigger squirrel easily caught up with her. She stayed and quietly allowed him to sniff her.
Sadness overwhelmed Kagome then, and she couldn't help but wonder…would Inuyasha leave her too? Or would he come and fight for their love? Or was she, once again, deluding herself and Inuyasha loved Kikyo still?
Would Inuyasha rely on instincts or…love?
Would Inuyasha choose Kikyo, and her new body given to her thanks to Jaken's wisdom? Or… will he come back and drag her from her house and take her back to Feudal Japan and to their fairy tales life again?
Her shoulders slumped, who was she kidding? She knew the answer to that… right?
