-Honey-

I was eating cake in the club room with Usa-chan when the door opened and Kagome walked in.

"Oh, Kagome-chii!"

I said with a smile and noticed she didn't return it like usual.

"Is something wrong Kagome?"

I asked seriously as she came over, picked Usa-chan up, and sat in the chair he'd been in while holding him in her lap.

"Honey, I'm confused about something."

She said and I looked at her.

"About what?"

I asked and she sighed before lifting her head to look at me.

"There's someone here who makes me feel like Inuyasha did before he…."

She said trailing off and I held up a hand to stop her.

"I know, continue."

I said and she nodded.

"It's just that, I don't know what to do. I mean, I reacted the way I do around the person now when I was with Inuyasha and look what happened."

She said and I waited for her to continue.

"I'm afraid of what will happen if I act on these feelings. I won't say I'm completely over what happened between me and Inuyasha because, well to be honest I'm not. But to say I don't feel anything for this other person would be a lie. I just don't know what to do."

She said and I smiled at her.

"Well, I think you should first deal with the Inuyasha and feudal era thing before trying to take on another thing. Because if you try to avoid the first and go after the second, then the first will just keep getting in the way."

I said and she looked at me in shock before slowly smiling at me.

"Thank you Honey."

She said and I smiled at her.

"Don't mention it. You ready to train?"

I asked and she nodded before she got up and set Usa-chan down, then followed me out of the club room to the dojo. I shut the doors after us and turned to her.

"I'm ready whenever you are. And remember, when you can pin me down, you're ready to go back."

I said and she nodded before charging at me.

-Kagome-

I charged at Honey and he dodged my first attack and came at me himself. I jumped back and swept out with my feet and managed to make him stumble. I threw myself at him to throw him off balance the rest of the way and we rolled on the floor, struggling to gain the upper hand. I grabbed his arms and flipped him over my head, then moved to pin him down, but he kicked me off of him and got to his feet. I gasped before getting to my feet as well.

"You've improved greatly and you were really close. You want to try again?"

He asked and I nodded. He smiled at me before charging at me. I waited until he got close enough then I took a step back so he went farther than he had expected, then I quickly stepped forward and punched him in the gut making him double over. I grabbed his upper arm as I kicked his feet out from under him. We fell and I landed ontop, pinning him down. I smiled down at a wide eyed Honey as I straddled his waist and pinned him down.

"I win, Honey senpai."

I said with a smile and he blinked in surprise before smiling in return. I got up and helped him to his feet. He pulled me towards him and suddenly hugged me.

"You're ready to go back Kagome."

He said and I blinked in surprise before hugging him back.

"Thank you Honey."

I said as we pulled apart.

"Do me a favor?"

I asked and he nodded.

"Anything."

He said and I smiled at him.

"Tell Hikaru and the others about me, about my past I mean. You can tell them everything."

I said and Honey's eyes widened.

"Are you sure?"

He asked and I nodded.

"I consider them to be my friends Honey, and friends shouldn't keep secrets from each other."

I said and he smiled before giving me another hug. Then he left the dojo and I sighed to myself. I was finally going to go back, but Honey was right. I was ready for this.

I grabbed my bag and slung it over my shoulder before heading for the door. I made my way back home and showered. I ate dinner with my family and knew that I had to do this. If I wanted to be able to move on with my life, then I had to do this.

"Mom, Jii-chan, Souta."

I said and they all looked at me.

"I'm sorry for how I've been acting ever since I got back from the feudal era and I'm sorry I made you all worry."

I said and they looked at me confused.

"Kagome, you don't have to apologize."

My mom said, but I shook my head.

"No, I should have known you two wouldn't hurt me but because of Inuyasha I shied away from guys completely and for that I'm sorry."

I said looking at Souta and my grandfather.

"What brought all this on Kagome?"

My mother asked and I sighed.

"I'm going back to deal with things. I'll be back once I've finished. If the school calls, tell uncle I'll be back by Monday. I do have a test to take after all."

I said with a smile before leaving the kitchen and heading out the door straight for the well house. I picked up the two katanas my grandfather had given me and strapped them to my waist before looking down at the well. I wasn't going to hide anymore. Nekozawa had helped train my miko powers and Honey had helped me learn to defend myself. I wasn't going to run away from my problems anymore, I was going to face them. I took a deep breath before hoisting myself up and over the lip of the well. I was surrounded by the familiar magic of the old well as I floated through the void of colors as I traveled through time to the feudal era. I reached the other side and looked up. I saw the night time sky and took a deep breath of the clean, feudal era air. I was going to settle things, once and for all. Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sango were going to pay for what they did to me and I wasn't leaving until they realized they couldn't hurt me anymore.
