Chapter Seven: Recollection

Kagome woke Monday morning and groaned. It was the last week of summer break and then they were back in school. She really wasn't looking forward to dealing with the jealous wrath of all the other girls because she and Inuyasha were now engaged. But she knew that it was inevitable, since she and the others had returned from the beach they had ran into some of the other girls that had made moves on Inuyasha when he had first came to the school and they had seen the ring on her hand.

But that wasn't what had woke her at six in the morning. No it was the dream she had had again. Kagome had been having the same dream again and again since the first time she had had it on the last day at the beach two weeks ago. It always started the same way her and her friends were in an old village with a tall tree that looked a lot like hers and Inuyasha's tree where they had met.

Kagome would always be wearing a Miko's outfit and Inuyasha would always be in a red kimono with a sword at his side. Sango would be wearing a kimono with armor under the dress and Miroku was always dressed as a monk. She never saw Kikyo or any of the others but the four of them were always in the village talking and taking care of each other. Then there would be a bright light and that was when Kagome always woke up. It was so aggravating.

Just then Kagome felt like something was watching her, but when she got up and looked out the window nothing was there. It seriously freaked her out. She had had the feeling back on the beach when they were going ready to leave which was why she asked Inuyasha if they could take the long way home that day.

Flashback

Inuyasha was packing the truck up with their gear when Kagome walked over to him with a frown on her face. Inuyasha noticed her trouble expression and was worried. Kagome normally could tell when there was trouble around, which was really what drew him to her. After the first day they had met nothing but trouble had come after them. He promised her that nothing would get to her but he couldn't keep that promise because of her father. Now however he wasn't going to let anything happen to his love.

"What's wrong Kagome?" asked Inuyasha

"I don't know. Something isn't right." said Kagome

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not sure, but something's wrong, Inuyasha." said Kagome "Hey lets go the long way home. It would be safer."

Inuyasha was confused and taken back, but he trusted Kagome's word so he agreed. "Okay go tell the others ." he said.

"Okay." she said and Kagome walked away.

Kagome walked over to where Miroku and the others were talking and getting ready to head back to the city. Kikyo looked over to where her sister was coming from and noticed her expression. From what she gathered from it whatever Kagome saw wasn't good. Kagome walked over to them and told them that they were going the long way home.

"How come?" asked Kikyo confuse. What had Kagome seen that caused her sister to be so worried?

"It's just as well." said Nalika flying down with Kyrian.

"How come?" asked Kagome.

"Koron is waiting at the mountain top to cause a landslide." said Kyrian. Kagome and Inuyasha had told their friends about their history with Koron and the two wanted to make sure that he didn't try to attack them.

"Nalika will you check the other way as well?" asked Inuyasha walking back to Kagome.

"Of course we will." said Nalika and the two demons flew off.

"Inuyasha I'm scared." said Kagome

"Kagome I won't let anything hurt you. I promise." said Inuyasha and the others just went over to the truck to give the two of them some privacy.

Flashback ends

Kagome knew that Inuyasha would keep his promise but she was worried about the dreams that she had been having. Kagome had no idea what they meant but they had to have a meaning if they kept coming to her. She hated having spiritual powers and the ability to see in…

"Oh my god, that's it!" she called out. Then Kagome ran over to the storage where she knew her grandfather was getting ready for the day. Kagome knew that the family had an old family tree in the storage somewhere and her grandfather would knew exactly where. "Grandpa are you there?"

"Yes Kagome. What is it?" asked her grandfather as she ran into the storage shed.

"Can you tell me where the old family tree is? I need to check something out." said Kagome

"It's over there on the shelf. You might want to get Inuyasha or Tyzen to get it for you, though."

"Thanks grandpa." said Kagome and she took out her phone. She started to dial Inuyasha's number but then stopped. It was seven in the morning and if there was one thing that hadn't changed since her and Inuyasha met was the fact that he hated to be up early in the mornings when he didn't have to be. "I guess I'll have to call Tyzen, though I don't really want to." Then Kagome stopped again she didn't even have Tyzen's number. Sighing she left the storage shed to get Kikyo up so that she could call her mate when Kagome ran right into Inuyasha.

"Oh hey. I was just coming to see if you were up." said the half demon.

"What are you doing up so early?" Kagome asked her fiancée. She had never known Inuyasha to be up so early.

"I couldn't sleep." Inuyasha said simply. "I've been having weird dreams and though my brother's in them he has no idea what their about."

"Well could you help me?" asked Kagome

"Sure with what?" asked Inuyasha

"I need to get my family tree scroll, but I can't reach it so I thought you or Tyzen could get it for me."

"Sure come on I'll get it." said Inuyasha and they went to the storage shed. Kagome pointed out what scroll it was and Inuyasha got for her. But when she unrolled it she didn't see what she was looking for. "So what's going on Kagome?"

"I've been having strange dreams to but it's only got me you Miroku and Sango in them and the four of us look like we're from the feudal era. You always have a sword on your side and wearing a red kimono. I'm always dressed as a Miko and Sango and Miroku are dressed as a monk and demon slayer, which is what she is." said Kagome

"That's true, and Miroku comes from a long line of monks." said Inuyasha. "And you come from a long line of priests and priestesses. So that would explain why you would be dressed as a Miko. That's what they were called back then."

"But why am I have these weird dreams?" asked Kagome

"I don't know Kagome. What's really weird is I've been having similar dreams except in mine the four of us are fighting a demon called Naraku and so is Sesshomaru."

"I wonder what it means." said Kagome.

"Hey maybe we should talk to Miroku and Sango to see if they've had the same dreams." said Inuyasha

"I agree but let's wait until after ten at least. I know Sango doesn't like being woke up early either."

Inuyasha laughed "Neither does Miroku." and the two walked into the house.

Tyzen walked around the mountains where he was once thrown out because he was a half demon. However when his father was killed in a battle Tyzen found him and his father gave him the leader's symbol and in doing so made Tyzen the leader of his clan. Just like his five other beast friends. He knew that the others of his clan hated him but when the clan was in trouble Tyzen risked his life to save his people. That there made them respect him enough to listen to him when he told them of his father's passing of the leadership and when he brought Kikyo into the clan as well.

Just then Reiden, the leader of the white tiger clan, walked over to Tyzen and tapped him on the shoulder. "Hey Ty what's wrong?"

"Nothing Reiden, I was just walking." said Tyzen then he saw the other leaders of the five clans. "Hey guys."

"Hey Tyzen what are you still doing on the mountain?" asked Kyrian. "Shouldn't you be with Kikyo?"

"Yeah you're usually down in the city with the other half demon and the humans." Said Talen the leader of the blizzard wolf clan. Tyzen was actually glad that Talen didn't really come off the mountain that much. Since Koga went to school with Inuyasha and the rest of them and he was the leader of the southern wolf tribe, him and Inuyasha would have a major time just keeping the two away from one another let alone keeping the from fighting.

"I'm getting ready to leave." said Tyzen

Nalika smiled as she walked over to her mate and friends. She knew that Tyzen was having the same visions that she and Kyrian were having which was why he was still on the mountain and not with Kikyo yet. "Hey Tyzen before you leave can you give this to Kagome when you go down?" asked Nalika handing him a jewel that he had never seen before.

"Yeah sure." said Tyzen

"As for you three. There's the clan meeting in two minutes. I expect you all to be there." said Nalika

"What about Tyzen?" asked Talen in his usual surliness.

"Tyzen is doing something for me. There for he is excipient from the meeting. Don't worry there's another Blue dragon to lead when he's not here." said the black phoenix and Tyzen smiled. He knew exactly who the other was but never told anyone besides Nalika Kyrian and Kikyo that she was his sister.

"Later guys." said Tyzen and he left the mountain barrier which hid the village of Sacred Beast Demons from the outside world. Only the ones that led the five tribes could tell someone where it was and only the Leader could show them. That was why Tyzen was glad he was good friends with Nalika and Kyrian. If not for them then he wouldn't have been able to mate with Kikyo because she had to meet his tribe and his tribe had to accept her.

Tyzen was so busy thinking about the past that he didn't realized who was standing in front of him until he sensed the miasma. He hadn't felt this kind of miasma since the half demon Naraku was alive and Inuyasha's group defeated that demon almost six hundred years ago in their past lives. Looking up he couldn't believe what he saw. Not only was a demon but the very same demon that had killed Kikyo and caused her and Inuyasha to hate one another.

Tyzen had to admit that he was actually grateful for the evil demon's interference. Had it not been for Naraku Inuyasha and Kikyo probably would have gotten married in their past which meant he wouldn't have her now. But since Naraku had cause the two to hate one another then Tyzen knew that was the reason why he and Kikyo were now fated to be with the other.

"Well, well if it isn't the half dragon demon."

"Who are you?" asked Tyzen he had a good idea of who the guy was but he didn't want to be mistaken when he told Nalika and Kyrian.

"I believe you know who I am little Dragon."

"Naraku." said Tyzen through his teeth. Though he helped Kikyo and Tyzen get together Tyzen still hated the guy and with good reason. It was him that killed both his mother and father. "How is it you're here? Inuyasha and the others killed you back in their first life."

"True but now fate has given me a second chance." said Naraku and he shot Tyzen with an attack filled with Miasma.

"Ju-just you wait Naraku. Inuyasha beat you once before he can do it again." said Tyzen before he lost all of his powers.

"Not without Kagome and I intend to make sure Kagome and Inuyasha never see their wedding day." And Naraku left Tyzen there almost dead, never expecting help to come from the least likely place.

"No…" whispered Tyzen as he saw two gusts of wind picking up and coming his way.

Koga kneeled down beside Kikyo's mate and almost passed out himself from the scent of the Miasma. He couldn't believe it was so strong. Never as long as he's known about it was there a demon with such a strong miasma as this, but something was nagging at him that he did know of a demon once long ago but couldn't remember the name. "Ayame I need you to go get Kagome Inuyasha and Kikyo. Bring them to the village. I'm taking Tyzen there, only Kagome's spiritual powers will be able to save Tyzen at this point but you have to hurry. If we wait too long the miasma will spread and there won't be anything that we can do."

"Right." said the she wolf and Ayame ran down the mountain to Kagome's shrine.
