"Don't worry my liege I won't mess up this time like I did 50 years ago." "I'm sure you won't, now you may leave." "I wonder what Naraku is planning to do and why won't he tell me?" "Could it be that he knows of my power and only keeps me around so that he can figure it out and take it from me?" "If that's the case then I can't stay here I must do this myself."

"Inuyasha why do you always have to doubt me!" "I'm not, I just don't think you shouldn't go to the river alone who knows what will happen!" "Oh I see you think that I might meet up with Kouga since you two have had that fight over ME, any ways your just jealous." "Wha…What do you mean, I'm just trying to protect you." "Yeah sure, well I'll be on my way." Kagome walked away with a huge grin on her face leaving Inuyasha speechless. "Oh that wench how could she think that I would be jealous over Kouga?" Inuyasha stormed off cursing under his breath. "Hello Inuyasha!" Shippou yelped as he jumped on Inuyasha's shoulder. "Nothing." "Why are you so sad did you and Kagome have another fight?" "Kagome." "Yeah I guess." "Well I think you should go apologize." "What are you talking about she started it!" "I just think…" Inuyasha grabbing the little fluff ball and dropping him to the ground cut him off. "I'm not going to apologize to anyone and besides I didn't ask for your opinion!" "Fine, I'm going to the village you big butthead!" Shippou yelled as he ran towards the village. "Butthead?" "Oh well it's not like I did it, I mean she did it to herself blaming me that I doubted her."

"Inuyasha why do you always have to be a jerk?" "I know that you don't want to be but you're always to caught up in your pride to see how I feel." Kagome thought to herself as she walked farther to the spring. "Good I finally got here, it seemed so long without Inuyasha here to talk to." "Well I guess I won't waste anymore time." And with that she threw her clothes aside and jumped in the spring. "Wow!" "This water sure is cooled." "But it is refreshing and it always takes my mind off of things." She splashed water up against her body taking the entire dirt off of her from when she had tripped over a limb. "Inuyasha please don't be mad, I still want to be with you."

***********

"It's been along time since Kagome went to the spring, maybe I should go check on her." "Uh guys I'm going to go outside to get some fresh air I'll be back in a while." Inuyasha walked out of the hut walking towards the spring. "Sango do you think that our little Inuyasha is finally grown up?" "I sure do." "How touching it is huh Sango." "Yeah it's beautiful." A tear falling from Sango's eye as her and Miroku threw their heads back laughing. "Kagome I hope you're still not mad at me, and please be alright."

"Awe it looks as if my plan is going quite well." "I think I'll just wait a little longer and when the time is right I'll grab her."

Inuyasha started to feel a strange present around him. *sniff sniff* "What is that weird smell it's not a youkai but the power is magnificent." "I must move faster because if it's who I think it is then Kagome's in danger." Inuyasha leaped into several trees pushing the branches out of his way. "Damn I hope I'm not to late." He pressed on as the branches scraped across his face letting blood draw from his cheeks. But he didn't care all he could think of was Kagome.

"Now I must do it now." She jumped from the tree she was in swooping down taking Kagome out of the water. Kagome was stunned at the moment trying to figure out what had just happened, as her eyes grew large with fear. Landing to the ground she dropped Kagome. "So you must be Kagome?" Kagome couldn't say anything she was to shock at the event that occurred. "Answer me." Her voice boomed waking Kagome from her trance. "Y…yes I'm Kagome." "It seems I didn't mess things up this time." "Who is this mysterious woman and what does she want with me?" "Could she be searching for the jewel shards to." Just then Inuyasha came crashing through the trees like a crazy person. "So I see you have finally come I was starting to get worried but then again I'm sure you can take care of your self or can you?" "Who the hell are you, and what do you want with Kagome!" "Awe I see you still haven't figured it out, half breeds can be so amusing, any ways it's not her I want you fool its you." "What the hell is this crazy lady talking about she wants me?" "Could this be another one of Naraku's trap or is she working for Kikiyou and wants my soul?" "Well who ever she is she's not going to get out alive that's for sure." "So you think I won't get out of this alive?" "What how could she read my thoughts she's more powerful then I thought." "You're exactly right, I'm stronger then I used to be, 50 years ago." "Who are you!" "I'm sure this will refresh your memory." "50 years ago I knew a girl named Kikiyou." "Kikiyou?" "That's right Kikiyou, any ways she was a good friend of mine who was deeply in love with you." "She always talked about how great you were and that you were a good friend so I just had to meet you." "But when I went out looking for Kikiyou because she was going to show me to you, but I couldn't find her anywhere." "I could smell her faintly but it was enough to track her down." "So I crept up behind a tree as soon as I heard her talking with someone." "I thought maybe it was you but he was far to handsome to fit the description she gave of you, any who she handed the man a necklace with a small round pink ball on it that shimmered brightly in the sun." "I could tell that the man was not human by the scent of his blood it was the scent of a full demon and I didn't like it." "The man took the necklace and put it on, my necklace, but when he did his power seemed to grow greatly." "I had wondered why she had been sneaking off all the time I guess that was why." "Finally the man started to laugh as he hit Kikiyou with a superb force, I was shocked in horror at the sight but didn't dare go towards her until the man left." "When he did I ran to her aid but she looked ok no bruise or cut anywhere and when she woke up she seemed to be a completely different Kikiyou." "She kept rambling on how she despised you and how she must kill you for her sake." "I heard her talking about how you always went to a sacred spring it was then that I knew I had to find you and see if you could help. When I found you, you were sitting near the spring I could hear your thoughts thinking a Kikiyou, how much you loved her I didn't know if I should tell you but you needed to know." "So now do you remember me?" "Yes I do, Kikai!" "Awe you even remember my name how sweet." "Enough kidding around!" "Now tell me why you're here and what do you mean that the Shikon no Tama is yours!" "Well I'll tell you as soon as you show me your new skills you've learned." "Well that's just fine with me but I've got to warn you I'm pretty good for just a half breed." His laughter filled Kikai's ears. "You seem so confident about yourself could it be that you actually don't know if you can defeat me." Her voice echoed threw Inuyasha's sensitive ears. "Shut up!" "You're really starting to piss me off!" "Go ahead show your anger show your hate for me." "I'll teach you to mock me!" "Silly Inuyasha enough talk, fight!" "You just made a big mistake Kikai, I really didn't want to fight you but it's for Kikiyou's sake and I will not let anyone harm her I love her to much to let her fall at yours or Naraku's hands!" "Inuyasha how could you betray me, I loved you even if you don't love me you still said that you were over Kikiyou and that I could stay here with you." "Oh Inuyasha I think you're the one how made the mistake, you really should choose your words more wisely, hurting poor Kagome with your selfishness." "How does she know can she really read minds?" "Of course I do dear but that's not all I can do so why don't you just lay back and enjoy the event that it about to occur." "Your really sick you know that Kikai!" "I think you're the one who's sick, loving someone who's tainted with others blood and very souls."
