InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Back to Where I belong ❯ Sorry & screwed ( Chapter 3 )

A/N: I hope that you all are liking the story so far. I know that I’m enjoying it more then I thought I would. I just want to ask if you read it can your review it. I really want to know what you think of it so far, and I can’t if you don’t tell me. Thanks!

Disclaimer: I had a dream once that I owned Inuyasha, but then I woke up. I haven’t come closer to owning him since then.

************************************

I was suppose to be leaving tomorrow, but I was having a thousand and one doubts about it. What if something happens to mama, and Souta is left with no one to take care of him? What’s going to happen to Bouyo? What is my mother going to tell everyone when they wonder what happened to me? What if it doesn’t work, and I end up in between two worlds? What if I die? What’s going to happen to Hojo?

Finally, I couldn’t take it anymore. I got out of bed, got dressed and wrote everyone a note. I knew now that if I didn’t do this now that I never was going to, and I was going to live a very unhappy life with Hojo, whom I did not love, as much as I wanted to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear, Mom, Grandpa, and Souta,

I know your going to be shocked when you wake up and find me gone, but laying in bed tonight I started having doubts. I know this is what I truly want, but I’m worried that by tomorrow I’m going to change my mind. As much as I want to be happy I can’t. If I can’t bring myself to do this now then I won’t ever do it and now that it has been brought to my attention that I don’t love Hojo I can see that I never will, and I’ll never be happy with him. As much as I want to. I can see that I never belonged in this time. Not after being with Inuyasha and the others. They’re family to me, and I miss them so much…

I love you all and I’m going to miss you more then you’ll ever know. I’ll always think of you and I’ll always have you in my heart. I hope that you can forgive me for leaving like this.

I love you all

Kagome

As I jumped into the well and allowed myself to be transported to the one place that I called home I thought of what I had just done. I had my said goodbyes to them while they had been sleeping, but it wasn’t the same. In the letter it didn’t even sound like me. I knew that I couldn’t have everything, but if I had thought for one minute that I would still have the courage to do this come sun up I would have. It would have been safer for me if I had.

As blue light surrounded me I felt my energy leaving me, and couldn’t believe that at one time I had enjoyed this feeling, because now, I couldn’t breath, I was in a amount of pain that could barley stand, and I desperately wanted to go to allow myself to pass out.

The well had been a lot weaker then I thought, when I felt myself land one of the first things that crossed my mind was that I was home at last. I hurriedly made a barrier with energy that I didn’t have, and then I passed out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Miroku was so tired that he felt that he could sleep standing up. He was about to lay down next to his wife when he felt it. It was a shock to his system. One minute he was exhausted, and the next he was wide awake. He bent over his wife and shook her awake.

Sango growled and snuggled deeper in to her sleeping mat, “Miroku I just fed the baby. If she needs someone to take care of her you know what to do. Let me sleep!”

“It’s not that.”

Sango turned and glared at her husband, “This. Had. Better. Be. Good.”

Miroku loved it when his wife was mad at him. Even though she was sleep deprived and her hair was messed up he still looked better then any other women he had ever met. He really didn’t want to upset her by telling her that Kagome was back, because although it was good news she couldn’t see her friend right now, that Miroku knew, but he had made a promise never to keep anything from Sango and he was going to tell her.

He leaned over a kissed her head, “Miroku…”

He laughed, “I love you Sango.”

H was putting it off, “I love you too. Now what do you want?”

Miroku hesitated, “Kagome’s back.”

His wife’s eyes widened, “What? How do you know that?” she exclaimed.

“I could feel her power when she passed through the well. It was feeding off almost all of her power, and I could feel it.”

Sango was up now, sitting up on their sleeping mat. It was dark out and the only thing that occupied that room was a sleeping mat, the crib, and the fire whole. He could only make out a slight outline of Sango from the moon. He was glad that they were in the only room with a window, because he wanted to see his wife when he told her all of this. There was more then one room to the hut, but Sango didn’t want to be away from the baby, and she wanted to stay in the warmest room in the hut. He was glad for that now.

“She’s so far away,” she argued.

“Darling, she had more power now then she ever did before.”

Sango was already getting up, “We can’t tell him yet,” Miroku said before Sango could even go to Inuyasha.

“But he’s going to know-”

“She’s solved that problem. I am very much sure of that, She is weak right now, and I am almost certain that she wants to recover on her own,” Sango’s husband assured.

Sango didn’t know what she wanted to do. She knew that Inuyasha would want to know that Kagome was back, but Miroku was right. Kagome would want to recover on her own. She laid back down on her mat, and Miroku joined her, wrapping his arms around her covering her in warmth. It was amazing that things she felt with him.

She snuggled into Miroku, “We can’t leave her.”

“We’re not.”

“What if-” Sango argued again.

Miroku didn’t want to alarm his wife, but there really wasn’t anything he could do. He just rubbed Sango’s back until she started to calm and go to sleep.

“Hands Miroku,” she warned half asleep.

Miroku laughed at his Sango and went to sleep with his wife.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the middle of the forest among the trees you could make out the form of a half demon sitting in a sacred tree. His form was outlined by the moon, and he had a sad and relaxed look to him.

Inuyasha had been sitting in his tree when he had felt something change in the air. He was a second away from going to the well, and seeing if there was anyone there. He stopped himself though because he had done that one to many times, and he didn’t feel like feeling like an idiot again.

So he just relaxed again, and stared out at the moon until he felt sleepy. He could sleep easier knowing that Sango and Miroku were asleep. He knew that Miroku had made a barrier around the hut and they were all asleep and safe so he allowed himself to close his eyes.

He did eventually feel sleep pulling at him, but even half asleep he felt that he was ignoring something important.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I awoke with a pounding headache. I was so hungry that I could have eaten my own hand, and most likely would have if I had that energy, but that was the problem. I still didn’t have the energy. I wanted the help of my friends, but I didn’t want them to see me like this. The well might have been cold, hard, and smell funny, but I was going to stay down here until I was ready to face everyone.

I sent a pulse through out that well to tell Miroku that I was okay and then my energy once again wasted, I passed out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inuy asha flinched and Miroku saw it. Miroku had a feeling that that Inuyasha could fell things that he wasn’t suppose to and he fought not to say anything even thought he badly wanted to. It was amazing what the half demon noticed where Kagome was concerned.

“Did anyone feel that?” Inuyasha asked slowly as if not sure he wanted to say anything.

Of course Sango was on it the second he said anything and was asking about it almost the second the question left his mouth.

“Sango, sit down,” Miroku said trying to keep her from saying anything.

Inuyasha looked suspicious and I told him a bold faced lie that even he believed. Probably because he thought that it was the truth himself.

“It was the wind.”

When Inuyasha found out what his friend was hiding….

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ < p>I finally awoke and was able to move. I wasted no time getting up slowly and eating the little food I had, two granola bars and a packaged muffin, then leaning again the well wall. It was dark and cold inside the well. The only thing that kept my company was the bones in the bottom of the well. I wanted to leave, but it was the middle of the night, and it wouldn’t be safe for me to do it because I would be left with no barrier so I stayed where I was.

I was shaky, weak, and I felt sick to my stumach. I knew that I didn’t smell the best, and my hair was matted to my head. I knew that dirt probably looked better then I did and felt better to.

It accrued to me while I sat there that I would have been in major trouble even in the middle of the day. Even though it was easy enough to get out of the well. It wouldn’t be easy for me to get out, and keep myself from any attacks that might follow my trip to Keade’s hut. I couldn’t afford to get in that kind of trouble. I didn’t have the energy for any kind of fight. I was going to be lucky if I was able to make the easy climb out of this well.

I looked at my dirty clothes again, and grimaced. I dusted myself off (as if that would make a difference) and waited for the sun to come up when I could think about what options I had, but the only option I had was calling out to Miroku. Why had I even bothered? Maybe Inuyasha wouldn’t find out, and kill me for trying this.

I sighed. I was screwed.

A/N: I ask only one thing of you. That you review.
