InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Feudal Vacation; Secrets Revealed! ❯ Kagome's Return-Inu Yasha's confession ( Prologue )

It is three years since Kagome was first pulled into the Bone-Eaters Well, and Kagome has graduated from high school. It is a quiet Wednesday in June, and Kagome is getting ready to leave for an entire 2 months, into the feudal era. They only have about 4 more shards of the Shikon Jewel to gather before it is complete. That was all Inu Yasha had been talking about. All he talked about was how he would be full demon soon. Kagome scoffed at him and said that wasn't going to happen as long as he had the Prayer Beads on. Then she proved by using the magic word. "SIT!"

"Kagome!" her mother yelled, "I got your pack ready!"

Kagome ran out the door with a quick, "Thanks Mom!" and jumped through the well into the feudal era. As soon as she emerged from the well, a small bundle of fur jumped into her arms.

"Kagome!" Shippo exclaimed hugging her tightly, "I'm so glad you're back. Inu Yasha's been really mean!"

Kagome's right eyebrow twitched at the mention of the hanyou's name. "Don't worry, Shippo. I'll set him straight."

"Kagome! I'm so glad you're back!" Sango exclaimed, hugging her friend. Miroku smiled warmly.

"Hey, you guys… uh, where's Inu Yasha?" Kagome queried.

"The last time I saw him, he went that way," Sango answered.

"Thanks," Kagome said, before heading off in that direction. Shippo tried to follow, but Miroku and Sango held onto his arms and bribed him with chocolate.

Kagome saw Inu Yasha in a small clearing ahead of her, and was about to run towards him, when she saw Kikyo. She halted immediately to listen.

"…don't want you back Kikyo," Inu Yasha was saying.

"What do you mean, "you don't want me back"?" Kikyo demanded, "A while ago you would've taken me back in a heartbeat, Inu Yasha. Why the sudden change of mind?"

"You're right about one thing Kikyo. I would have taken your offer a long time ago. However, it wasn't my mind that changed. My mind always told me you weren't worth it. It was my heart that changed. I never loved you Kikyo," Inu Yasha took a deep breath, "Maybe I did, but that was a long time ago. That was before I met…" He trailed off.

"Before you met who Inu Yasha?" Kikyo scoffed, "That pathetic excuse of my reincarnation? Why if it weren't for Naraku-"

"SHUT UP! Kagome is my woman now! I don't love you any more, Kikyo!" Inu Yasha yelled.

Kagome gasped from her hiding place, making Inu Yasha's ears twitch and drawing his attention to the thicket where she stood. He smiled as he sniffed the air. Why didn't I catch her scent before? he asked himself. Then a little voice in the back of his head answered, Because you were too busy arguing with Kikyo.

"K-Kagome… How much did you hear?" Inu Yasha asked her, as she emerged.

"Enough," she answered blushing.

"Oh, well isn't this sweet?" Kikyo said, "Look at the little girl blush. Too bad she isn't woman enough to handle Inu Yasha yet." Kikyo smirked as Kagome turned to her fuming.

Kagome composed herself in just enough time to dodge the arrow that flew towards her. She stared at Kikyo, then, gathering herself once more, walked towards her. Kikyo smiled, (more of a grimace), as Kagome stood face-to-face with her. Then Kagome pulled back her arm and gave the prissy little ex-priestess a swift uppercut in the chin, knocking her out cold. >>Author cheers Kagome on! "I always hated that bitch!"<<

Inu Yasha couldn't muster a single response to that, which is unusual. Kagome turned around, slapping her hands together and smiling sweetly at Inu Yasha.

"Well, now that she has been dealt with, I need to talk to you," Kagome said, dragging him to the village, and Kaede's hut.
