Kagome was relaxing at home with the others, except Yuki and Tohru because they had gone out. Shigure had just finished complaining about being hungry when the door flew open to reveal a very pissed off Yuki
"You're hungry? Skin this and eat it." In his hand was a white snake.
"A-Ayame?" Kagome cocked her head as Shigure put the snake in the other room and shut the door, explaining that Ayame is Yuki's older brother and obviously the snake. The door flew open to show a man about the same height of Shigure with golden eyes and long light gray hair.
He started talking and then grabbed Kagome and Tohru and dragged them to lunch, after telling them to make it. Kagome already didn't like this man. He started talking about his relationship with Yuki and how bad it was since he was older by a lot and didn't care for Yuki at first, only beginning to once Yuki had a solid 'I hate you' feeling. Kagome understood why Yuki didn't like him, but she wanted to help. It reminded her of Sesshomaru and Inuyasha, accept Ayame didn't want to also kill Yuki.
They returned home and the problem between Ayame and Yuki just increased until Ayame started telling stories of his high school days with Shigure and Hatori, and Yuki began to get interested. This was until the story ended and Ayame was taken home with Hatori.
"You know, Ayame really does look up to Hatori." Kagome smiled. He at least had a decent and honest goal, though he approaches it completely wrong.
It was May again and Kagome was putting on a short sleeved knee length dress and black flats. It was the 1 year anniversary of Kyoto's death. Kagome and Tohru were going to meet Uo and Hana there and invited Yuki and Kyo to come with them.
They got to the cemetery to see Uo and Hana, both Sohma's were complaining about their outfits. They went into the cemetery and to Kyoto's grave. It was cleaned and had fresh flowers in them. Tohru's grandfather must have come by earlier. In no less than a minute there was a picnic blanket down and the girls were sitting waiting for the boys to sit and eat with them. Instead of mourning sadly, they decided to have a little party, like what Kyoto would have wanted.
They stayed all day and Kagome had so much fun. She had never had fun remembering the death of someone close to her. But it didn't seem to hurt as bad as she thought it would. The sun set and ended the day along with the mini party and everyone left, waving goodbye to Uo and Hana.
The next night Tohru and Kagome were pushing a laundry cart when Momiji came out of nowhere and started to help them. That's when it hit the two workers. Momiji's father owned the building. Momiji started talking about his family and showed the girls a picture of his mother. Just then, she came out of the elevator with her daughter and told Momiji that his mother must be worried sick about him.
That's when it hit Kagome hard. Her memory was erased. Momiji told them the rest of the story. Cursed Sohma's parent's either were over protective, or rejective. And Momiji's mother had rejected him hard. So hard her memory of him had to be erased so that she didn't get sick. Which in turn made Kagome want to beat some sense into his mother, though she knew it wouldn't help anything.
Tohru and Kagome began to cry and latched onto Momiji, both now holding a yellow rabbit, all crying about the memories they will not forget, but use to make them stronger.
Later that month, Shigure had successfully guilt tripped Kagome and Tohru into going to the Sohma family lake house. As Hatori drove Shigure, Kyo, Tohru, and Yuki, Kagome rode Diamond, causing Hatori a small shock when the small little cat changed into a huge ferocious one.
At the lake house Kagome, Tohru, Yuki, and Kyo went on a walk. There was strong tension between the two boys and Tohru started to apologize. Kagome sighed. Everything had to be her fault didn't it? Tohru couldn't believe that she wasn't the reason other people seemed irritated. The boys told the girls that it wasn't their fault, but the other male that put them in a bad mood, causing the two to fight.
Tohru took a step too far back and began to fall down the hill, accidentally grabbing Kagome with her. The boys jumped and as Yuki grabbed Tohru, Kyo grabbed Kagome, leading to a transformation. At the bottom Tohru began to apologize to everyone for being so stupid. The two girls began to climb the hill and grab the boy's clothes as they listened to the fight between the two. Kagome looked back to see Kyo trying to climbed the tree Tohru had fallen against while Yuki was sitting there surrounded by rats.
The two girls then looked at each other and started to laugh. It was a funny sight to see and to see the boys back to normal. They made it to the bottom again and sat there laughing telling the others how happy they were that they were back to normal. The boys of course transformed and the girls handed over the clothes so that they could get dressed.
They returned to the cabin and saw Hatori sleeping on the couch. Tohru hurried to get a blanket so he wouldn't catch a cold while Kagome smiled and watched him a little longer. He looked so peaceful when he slept. She remembered that sort of look on Inuyasha when he slept peacefully. Soon Tohru came in and covered him up when the door flew open and an anime vein formed on Kyo's, Yuki's, and Kagome's heads. It was Ayame.
"Did you invite him!" Kyo and Yuki had warned Shigure earlier about inviting Ayame, and he seemed to have ignored it. The yelling began, waking poor Hatori. The four high school students went down to the lake to hide from Ayame and his madness. Kagome looked out to the lake and smiled. It was beautiful.
"Kagome!" She turned to see Tohru. Diamond was in her arms.
"What is it?" Tohru stopped in front of her.
"She followed us out here." Kagome pet the currently small demon cat's head.
"You didn't want to be left behind with them either did you?" Her fur stood on end. She didn't like Ayame either. After a while longer they went to the house and Ayame had changed into a snake, soon having Yuki swing him around and 'accidentally' let go. Then Tohru began to freak. Kagome sighed. What an interesting day.
They went inside and had a short discussion on Horror movies, because Kyo had trouble during the first hike with the Jason comment Shigure had made. Shigure had said that Jason was a bear and of course Kyo wouldn't know. After an hour or two of horrifying poor Tohru, everyone went to bed, Tohru clung to Kagome in her sleep. Kagome sighed and smiled. She reminded her so much of Rin. She began to wonder.
How did Rin's life go without her there? Did she somehow become a demon through a blood pack with Sesshomaru, or did she stay human? Did she marry a human, demon, or half demon. Did she have children? And did her line continue into today? And most importantly, would Kagome meet them?
I hope this one's okay. Sorry I haven't updated for a while.
