Last Time: “You are a fool Hiashi to think that you could possibly fight with that arm. Admit defeat now, or you will regret it.” Kagome coolly said, getting into battle mode.

“Please listen to her father.” Hinata pleaded, not liking where this match was headed.

“Oh be quiet Hinata. Father is doing just fine.” Hanabi snapped, but actually feeling the same way as Hinata.

“I will not concede.” Hiashi stated, getting his emotions in check.

“Suit yourself.” Kagome replied, smirking. Making a hand seal, Kagome made two copies of herself, while she just stood back and watched the show.

“What do you thing you are doing?” A cold voice, calmly asked from behind Kagome.

Clearly shocked, Kagome jumped a bit and turned around only to come face to face with Sesshomaru.

“Sesshomaru - sensei what are you doing here? I thought you weren't coming until tomorrow.” Kagome stuttered nervously.

“I got here earlier than anticipated. Now I will not ask a third time, what are you doing?” Sesshomaru asked again.

“Fine, I'll pull back the clones, but he deserved it.” Kagome stated, making her clones disappear.

Confused at why she did so, Hiashi tracked down the real Kagome and her conversing with an older man who looked very deadly.

“Oh yea, Sesshomaru - sensei I want you to meet Hinata. She's going to be Kikyo's new apprentice.” Kagome stated, leading Sesshomaru towards Hinata who was now starting to fidget under Sesshomaru's gaze.

“She is worthy enough.” Sesshomaru stated, studying Hinata.

Seething Hiashi made his presence know again, “Fine go with them Hinata if you wish to do so, but do not expect to be welcomed back here if you go.”

Chapter Six: Uchiha Family Reunion

“Hey where's Kagome?” Naruto asked, surveying their makeshift camp.

It had been a year since the last time Kagome had been to Konoha. Hinata was currently with Kikyo doing a mission in the Land of Waves.

Jiraiya had sort of left him with Kagome, Hiten, Shippo, and Sesshomaru. He said something about having important business to tend to. He didn't really mind being ditched by the pervert; he liked it here with them.

They knew about his prisoner and yet they didn't really care. In his two years of being with him, he's felt the happiest he has ever been. But that didn't mean he didn't miss Konoha, in fact it was quite the contrary.

“She's probably off moping.” Shippo yawned, getting up. Only to get a bomp on the head by Hiten.

“Hey what was that for?” Shippo asked, rubbing the spot where he was hit.

“Why would Kagome be moping.” Naruto asked, ignoring Shippo.

“She's not moping she's just sulking.” Hiten said, also ignoring Shippo.

“She's not sulking, she's moping.” Shippo argued.

“Don't those basically mean the same thing?” Naruto added, only to have his question fall on deaf ears as Shippo and Hiten continued to argue.

“Not - uh.” Hiten protested. As soon as those words left his mouth, Shippo jumped on him, trying to choke him.

As this was going on, Naruto decided to just sit there, watching the two idiots make fools of themselves, inwardly debating if he should break up their fight or not. Opting for the later, Naruto just sat their, an amused grin adoring his face.

“What are you morons doing?” An angry voice inquired, immediately putting an end to the two boy's fight.

Looking towards the direction of the voice, Naruto saw Kagome standing right behind him, a whole net of fish in her hands, with a ticked off look on her face.

“Oh hey Kagome. Where've you been?” Shippo grinned sheepishly, Hiten also doing the same thing.

“I told Sesshomaru - sensei this morning that I was out fishing. By the way, where is he?” Kagome scrutinized, surveying the camp for Sesshomaru.

“What you mean he's not here?” Naruto exclaimed, looking around also, his earlier question forgotten for now.

“Do you mean to tell me that you guys are barely noticing Sesshomaru - sensei's absence?” Kagome asked, getting irritated at how dense her teammates could be.

“Uhhh… maybe.” Shippo meakly answered.

“Idiots.” Kagome stated, setting the fish she had caught down. “We might as well as stay here until he shows up. Shippo you get started on the food, Hiten you gut the fish, and Naruto work on your chakra control exercises.”

“Okay but what are you going to be doing?” Shippo asked, getting the fire started.

“Don't worry, I'll be in about an hour or two.” Kagome replied, taking off before any body could protest. Not long after Kagome had left Sesshomaru appeared, with the same impassive face as ever. But there did seem to be an unfamiliar emotion in his eyes that he couldn't really place.

“Where's Kagome?” Inquired Sesshomaru.

“She just left. Why what's wrong?” Shippo answered then asked as he got up from his position next to his fire.

“Hiten, Naruto stop what you're doing and get closer. You guys are going to need to hear this, and I won't repeat myself.” Commanded Sesshomaru.

Nodding their heads in acknowledgement, Hiten and Naruto made their way towards Sesshomauru and Shippo. Each wondering what exactly was going on.

-----------xxxx----------

Gazing at the cloudy, blue sky, Kagome lay under a big sakura tree, starring out into the sky lost in a sea of thoughts. Today was June 9, her twentieth birthday. Memories of the last time she had spent her birthday with her family started to resurface like it had last year.

Flash Back

“Wow. I'm so glad that you're back nee - chan.” A young Sasuke exclaimed, hugging his older sister. “Oh yea, and happy birthday.”

“I missed you too Sasuke - kun.” Kagome replied returning the hug.

Breaking their hug, Sasuke asked, “So did you learn any cool new jutus, any that you can teach me.”

“All in do time Sasuke. So where's Itachi, father and mother.”

“Oh they went with Itachi's ceremony, today he becoming head of the anbu and they won't be back `til dinner time.” Sasuke answered a sour look on his face.

Knowing what was wrong, Kagome spoke, “Come on Sasuke, since we have time to kill I'll teach you a new jutsu that nobody in Konoha knows.”

“Really” Sasuke brightened.

“Really” Kagome smiled.

“Finally somebody's gonna teach me something cool.”

“Doesn't father or Itachi ever teach you anything?” Kagome questioned.

“Father's always busy with Itachi, and Itachi's always busy with whatever.” Sasuke answered, touching his forehead where Itachi always flicked him.

“Here wait for me right here, I'm gonna go put up my bag real quick.” Kaogme said.

End Flash Back

Soon another memory began to pop its way into her mind. The last time she had spoken to Itachi.

Flash Back

“Oh, come on Itachi. Please for me.” A thirteen year old Kagome begged, her brother Itachi. “Please for my birthday!”

Letting out a rare chuckle, the thirteen year old Itachi replied, “You forget nee - chan that it's my birthday also.

“Hey I'm older than you onee - chan, so you'll just have to do what I say.” Kagome pouted, stretching the word onee - chan.

“Psst. You're only older than me by five minutes.” Itachi retorted.

“I know that. But seriously please, you know I leave tomorrow.” Kagome begged, giving him the puppy dog eyes.

“Fine but stop with the eyes, you know I hate it when you do the eyes.” Itachi scowled.

“Yes!” Kagome cried, doing a little victory dance.

“But on one condition.” Itachi interrupted.

“And what condition is that.” Inquired Kagome looking slightly suspicious.

“You gotta promise me something.”

“Promise you what?”

“Promise me that no matter what happens, you and I will always be there for one another, and we'll always be a family.” Itachi stated, looking serious as ever.

“I promise, but what about Sasuke?”

“What about him, he's just a nuisance anyway?” Itachi frowned.

“Oh come on Itachi, I know you don't mean that. I mean he idolizes you, and I know for a fact that you care a lot for him even if you don't show it.”

“I know I just don't like the fact that he's so eager to be a ninja or like me for that matter. I mean he doesn't fully understand that we're just caged dogs only to be le out when our master order us.” Itachi stated bitterly.

“Don't worry nee - chan I'll figure out a way to help you someday.” Kagome sadly said, placing a comforting arm around Itachi. She was lucky, she wasn't a Konoha nin, and was free to choose her own path. Itachi and Sasuke on the other hand had sealed their fate the day they picked up a shuriken. Father worked Itachi way too hard for her liking.

“Thanks `Gome, let's get going before it gets any later.” Itachi wistfully said, using a name that he hadn't called his sister since early childhood.

“Are you alright `Tachi?” Kagome asked, looking over Itachi, for he was starting to act too gloomy for her taste.

“Yea I'm fine.” Itachi answered. “So are you going to lead or not.”

Hesitantly nodding her head yes, Kagome turned around and started to take her first step forward. However, before she could even take one more step, Kagome felt something strike her from the back, and before she fell into oblivion, she saw a pair of sorrowed filled obsidian eyes.

End Flash Back

Lately that memory had been resurfacing more than she had liked. Kagome just couldn't get those obsidian eyes out of her mind. All the nights she could not sleep, she wondered why, why, and why?

Letting out a small sob, Kagome slowly stood back up. Looking towards the sky, she decided that she had been out here long enough; she should probably head back to camp.

Stretching, Kagome started to walk towards the direction on camp when she saw Naruto appear. Slightly surprised, Kagome asked, “Hey Naruto what are you doing here?”

“Well you had this look in your eye and I wanted to make sure you were alright.” Naruto shyly admitted.

“How sweet of you.” Kagome replied, running her hand through Naruto's hair.

Blushing Naruto started to stutter, “We should head back, Shippo and Hiten are worried about you.”

“Lead the way.” Kagome responded, letting Naruto walk ahead of her.

Nodding his head Naruto started to walk, soon though he felt a kunai around his neck.

“Who are you and what the hell do you want?” Kagome questioned.

Smirking the make shift Naruto replied, “My, my you certainly are a clever one. But one shouldn't expect any less from an Uchiha”

Digging her kunai deeper, but not enough to draw blood, she inquired, “You didn't answer my question. Am I gonna have to draw it out of you by force.”

“Maybe.” The fake Naruto replied, quickly freeing himself of Kagome's grasp. Once he was a safe measure away from the Uchiha, the nin transformed back into his normal self.

Studying the nin, Kagome concluded that he was a Sound nin by the ____ he wore. He wore a pair of circular glasses, and had silver hair that he wore in a ponytail. She faintly recalled hearing about someone with silver hair like that from Kakashi but Kagome couldn't quite remember what exactly he had said.

“What is it that you want with me?”

“It's not I but my master. Maybe you've heard of him, he goes by the name of Orochimaru.” He stated with a smirk.

Upon hearing the name Orochimaru, Kagome swiftly charged the sound nin, and had him pinned against a tree before he could even register what was going on.

“Give me one good reason why I shouldn't end your miserable life right now.” Kagome glowered.

“I can take you to see Sasuke.” Was all he said.

Letting out a growl, Kagome reluctantly let him go. “Trick me and I'll make you wish you were in hell by the time I'm threw with you.”

Rubbing his neck, the silver haired sound nin lead the way towards Orochimaru's current hideout.

xxx---------------------------------xxx

“What's the big emergency Sesshomaru?” Inu Yasha asked as he, Sango, Bankotsu, and Jakotsu met up with Sesshomaru, Hiten, Shippo, and Naruto.

“Orochimaru, Itachi, and Sasuke are in the vicinity, and Kagome is missing.” Sesshomaru stated.

“Kagome - chan's missing.” Sango blurted out.

“Hai, now I want you guys to split up in group of twos and if you run into any trouble give the signal. We will meet back here by sun rise, and if you find Kagome,head back here.” Sesshomaru ordered.

Nodding their heads in acknowledgement, Shippo and Hiten split up together as Jakotsu left with Inu Yasha, Sango with Bankotsu and Sesshomaru with Naruto.

“So uh… Sesshomaru - sensei I was wondering umm why Kagome has been acting kind of off lately.” Naruto asked, after a few moments of uncomfortable silence.

When Sesshomaru didn't reply, Naruto thought that he wasn't going to say anything when Sesshomaru finally spoke, “Tell me Naruto do you know what today is?”

“Uhhh… June 9th.” Naruto answered, counting his fingers.

“Correct, and do you know what June 9th is?”

“Not really.”

“Today is Kagome twentieth birthday.” Sesshomaru calmly answered.

“Why would Kagome be so upset over that?” Naruto asked, still very confused.

“Several years ago when she went home for her birthday, she fell into a coma. I suspect that something significant happened and I think I know what, but otherwise she has not said a word about that day.”

Nodding his head, Naruto began to get lost in his thought about, the enigma that was Kagome. You felt that you knew her perfectly, but she always had a few surprises up her sleeve. What really happened to her all those years ago?

“Naruto, prepare yourself.” Sesshomaru suddenly stated.

“What, why?” Naruto started, until he too, noticed the nins that were following them.

xxx---------------------------------xxx

“Hey Bankotsu do you think that Kagome's gonna be alright?” Sango tentatively asked, twiddling her fingers.

“Hey there's no need to worry, Kagome's a strong girl she can take care of herself.”

“Yea, but these are her brothers. Who knows how they might feel about seeing herself again or vice versa.”

“Don't fret Sango this is Kagome we're talking about.” Bankotsu supplied reassuringly.

“Alright, so how long have they been following us?” Sango whispered in Bankotsu's ear, leaning closer to him to make it look like she was hugging him.

“I'm surprised you barely noticed, man wait until I tell Inu - sensei about this.” Bankotsu teased. Growling, Sango slapped him on the back of his head.

“Fine let's split up and ambush them.” Bankotsu snarled, upset that Sango had hit him in front of the enemy.

“Sounds like a plan” And with that they both took off before the nins following them could comprehend what had happened.

xxx---------------------------------xxx

“Jakotsu I swear if you touch me one more time I'll…” Inu Yasha started, until he suddenly sensed something in the trees.

“What was that Inu - sensei, you gonna punish me for being a bad boy?” Jakotsu asked, in the best seductive voice he could muster.

“Quickly Jak, Sango and Bankotsu are in trouble.” Inu Yasha stated, already taking off in the direction where Sango and Bankotsu had left.

xxx---------------------------------xxx

“Hiten I mean it, slap me one more time and I'll tell Kagome that thing you did with her kunai.” Shippo threatened.

“Do it and I'll her, Sango, Bankotsu, Jakotsu, and Naruto about the incident with Miroku.” Hiten retorted.

“You wouldn't dare.”

“Try me.”

Growling, Shippo lunged at Hiten, however before he could actually touch Hiten, Shippo disappeared in a puff of smoke. Smirking, Hiten also disappeared in cloud of smoke.

The two sound nins who had been following the duo, jumped down from their position in the trees, both curious as to what had happened to the two ninjas. But as soon as their feet touched the ground, they were both rendered unconscious by Hiten and Shippo who suddenly appeared.

“That was easy.”

“Sure was, now come on let's go before somebody notices.” Hiten said, jumping to the trees.

“Hey! Who died and made you boss?!” Shippo yelled after Hiten, following him into the trees.

xxx---------------------------------xxx

“So, you're the long lost Uchiha that theirs been so much speculation about.”

“And you must be the pedophile, Orochimaru who betrayed his home town and got my little brother to do the same.” Kagome lazily stated, looking bored.

“You know I'd watch that tongue of yours you insolent little brat.” Orochimaru spat, seething about the comment of him being a pedophile.

“Hit a nerve did I.”

Scowling, Orochimaru said, “Kabuto why don't you show Kagome here the little projection jutsu that you managed to create.”

Smirking, Kabuto made a few hand signs, and soon a scene of an empty forest appeared.

“I didn't come here to watch some stupid projection, where's Sasuke?” Kagome barked, losing her patience.

“Keep watching.” Orochimaru stated.

Doing as he said, Kagome continued to watch, soon Sasuke suddenly appeared. There was no sound so she couldn't hear what he was saying. Soon however, another nin appeared. A nin with all too familiar obsidian eyes.

Snarling, Kagome charged Orochimaru, “What the hell is this?”

“Just a little show I've decided to put on for you. What's wrong you don't like it?” Orochimaru stated, feigning hurt. As soon as the words left his mouth, he switched their positons, where he was the one holding Kagome by her neck.

“Tell me Kagome, just what lengths are you willing to go to for your precious brother.”

Smirking Kagome said, “Go to hell.” And with that she suddenly vanished.

Clearly not expecting this, Orochimaru roared, “What just happened?” His reply came in the echoing laughter of Kagome Uchiha.

Upset that she had gotten away, Orochimaru started to devise a new plan, this time he wouldn't underestimate the Uchiha.

xxx---------------------------------xxx

“So Sasuke I guess we meet again. I see that you haven't learned your lesson from the last time we met. Tell me, do you need another demonstration of last time.” Itachi stated his sharigan already activated.

“Any last word Itachi, for this is the day you pay for your sins.” Sasuske retorted, activating his sharigan.

Not bothering to respond, both brothers charged each other, Sasuke prepared to do One Thousand Birds Current and Itachi Tsukuyomi once again on him. Inches away from each other, they soon felt some one grab them by both of their wrists and break it.

“Hello little bothers, fancy meeting you guys here.” An angry voice calmly stated.

Looking up, both brothers saw another pair of sharigan eyes, starring intensely at both on them.

“Ka… Kagome.” They both stuttered.

TBC

AN: For the pairing, right now I'm leaning towards the incest or Neji, haven't quite decided, I might even put her with Sesshomaru or Kakashi. I guess it depends on how the story goes along. Thanks to all those who review, I'll try and have the next chapter out soon. I'm probably gonna change a few other pairings.
