Chapter 22
Kagome's mom and the Goshinboku (long title lol)
"Kagome wait! Where are you going?" Sango yelled. She ran out of her room, downstairs, and outside. Kagome was no where to be found. She was gone. Sango ran back inside her house and grabbed her phone. Knowing the number by heart, she quickly called Mirokus cell.
"Hello?" Miroku answered on the other line.
"Miroku! It's Kagome, she's gone. She got mad at me and I have no clue where she went. She just ran out and I tried to stop her but she was already gone when I got to the door. I don't know where she could've gone. What if she get's lost or something?" Sango asked quickly.
"Whoa slow down. Kagome ran away?" Miroku asked.
Sango took a deep breath. "Yes. I told her she should listen to Inuyasha and she got mad at me for taking his side then she just ran away. I don't know where she could have gone. I know she didn't go back to her house because she's still mad at Inuyasha and she dosen't know how to get to Rins house. I have no clue where she went to." She said calmer.
She heard Miroku sigh and then a lot of ruffling over the phone. She heard Inuyashas voice in the backround. "Where is she!? Where's Kagome!?" Inuyasha yelled Miroku came back on the phone. "We'll be there in a bit." He said and hung up.
Sango nodded even though he couldn't see her and then hung up.
-Kagome-
'She's suppose to be my best friend. How can she take his side!? God Sango.' Kagome thought as she ran. She kept running until she realized she had no clue where she was going. She was just running to nowhere. Kagome stopped running and saw she was at a small kids park. There were two or three kids playing on the slides with two adults. She saw the swings and sat on one of them. Slighty she swung back and forth. She sniffed and realized that she was crying again. Her hands came up to wipe her tears away.
'Mom. Please help me. I need you. I miss you so much. Please, I don't know what to do. I'm so scared.' Kagome thought closing her eyes. In her head there was a flash of light as a flashback came back to her.
Flashback
"Mommy!" A small 4 year old Kagome yelled running to her mother in a small park close to their house. Her mom was standing in front of a big tall beautiful tree that little Kagome always heard her mother tell her stories. They always came here when her dad was away at work or out somewhere getting drunk. It was only one year before her mothers death. Her mother greeted her with open arms. Kagome jumped in her arms and hugged her mom giving her a kiss on the cheek. "Mommy can you tell me another story?" Kagome asked sweetly.
Her mother smiled at her and nodded. She had a sad and distant look in her eyes. "Of course sweety. But I want to tell you something important." Her mother said.
"What is it!?" Kaogme asked putting her hands together.
"Sweety. You know how I always tell you stories here?" Her mother asked. Kagome nodded happily. "Ok. I want you to know about this tree. It's called the Goshinboku (god tree). This tree has been throughout our family for generations, a very long time. Thats why its so special to us. Me and you. I want you to know. Whenever you are in trouble and you need help. Just come here and you will find me. I will always be here for you. Right here." She place her hand on Kagome heart and kissed her on the forehead.
"Ok mommy." Kagome nodded and kissed her mom back on her forehead.
End of flashback
Kagome eyes widen at the sudden flashback. She didn't know how she remembered that. It was so long ago. Now she remembered. She used to go to that tree everyday. Until it turned to every other day then once a week then once a month until she forgot about it. She knew where she was going now. The only place she wanted to go now was that tree. She would return to Sangos later though she was still mad at her. She got off the swing and went in search for that tree. It was near the old well and her grandfathers shrine. Her grandpa had died long ago and her mom told her she used to live in the shrine but when her mom got married she moved out to the house she lived in with Kagome.
-Sangos house-
Sango sat at her couch impatiently waiting for Inuyasha and Miroku. She heard tires screech and then someone pulled into her driveway. Next second the doorbell rang and in burst through the door Inuyasha. Obviously he was impatient as well.
"Where's Kagome!? Is she okay!?" Inuyasha asked quickly as he ran into the living room where Sango was at.
"I don't know where she is. She just left." Sango said.
"Well we could go looking for her. I don't think she will be in any trouble." Miroku said.
"Yea I know she's not in trouble but where would she go?" Sango said.
"Hm...maybe she'll come back later. If she has no where else to go she'll probably come back."
"But it's cold out there. And the weather said it's gonna snow tonight. All she has on is a sweater and sweatpants, she didn't take a jacket with her." Sango explained.
"I'm going to go looking for her." Inuyasha said and left immediatly in his car.
"Miroku, I want to go looking for her. She's alone and it will be getting dark in 3 or so hours. It's already three 'o' clock." Sango said glancing at the clock on the wall.
"Alright. Let's go."
"Ok. I'm gonna borrow my moms car." Sango said. She grabbed her moms keys and left to the car. Her mom was out of town for now and she left her car just in case. That really came in handy. Both Sango and Miroku got in the car and were off looking for Kagome.
-Kagome-
Kagome finally made it to the Goshinboku after taking a taxi. It was getting really cold out. She stared up at the Goshinboku for a while. It's been so long since the last time she came here. The tree was still as beautiful as she remembered it to be. She sat on a bench next to the tree and started to think about what has happend in her life. She was glad that her father was finally in prison. But everything she thought about came back to Inuyasha and it just made her sad again.
'Inuyasha....how could you do this. I love you so much but...' She trailed out of her thoughts when she felt this strange pulse in her body. It made her shiver a little. She turned to the tree and stared at it. She felt another pulse. She had this urge to touch the tree, like it was calling for her. Without a second thought she got up from the bench and walked up to the tree. She put her hand on it and kneeled down. She was getting tired and very cold. The second she touched the Goshinboku she felt this strange relaxation and couldn't help but shiver at another pulse that coursed through her body. She turned around and leaned her back against the tree. She closed her eyes and relaxed. Why did this tree make her feel so calm?
'Kagome' A sweet and gentle voice said. Kagome quickly opened her eyes and looked around. She knew she heard her name. It sounded distant and echoed but she heard it.
"Who's there?" She asked. Silence answered her. There was no one around. Maybe she was just hearing things. Oh well. She closed her eyes again trying to relax.
'Kagome' There it was again. The same distant echoed voice. Her eyes shot open again and she looked around.
"Who's out there!? What do you want!?" She yelled.
'Kagome...It's me. Mommy.' The voice said.
Kagome mouth fell open and she desperatly looked around. Was she really hearing things? It couldn't be her mother. She was dead. "M-Mom?" She said thinking she was crazy herself.
'Yes Kagome. It's me.' Her mother said. Kagome stood up quickly.
"Mom!? Where are you!? How come I can hear you!?" Kagome asked.
'You can't see me Kagome. I'm talking to you in your mind. Do me a favor and close your eyes.'
Kagome sat back down again leaning against the tree and closed her eyes. Her mind was blank then she saw a flash of light. After the flash was gone there was a figure standing there. She knew who it was immediatly. It was her mother standing there in white clothing. She was in a field surrounded by flowers and leaning against the Goshinboku. It wasnt anything like it looked now. It was like she was in a different time period. 'M-Mom?' Kagome said in her mind.
'Yes sweety. It's me.' Her mom said smiling at her. Kagome wanted desperatly to run up to her mother and give her a big hug.
'Mommy. I missed you so much. What's happening? How come I can see you now?' Kagome asked in her head.
'Kagome. I don't have much time. I told you whenever you need me or you need help come here to the Goshinboku...'
'I know. I remembered. That's why I came mom. I need help. I don't know what to do...'
'I know honey. That's why I am here. I came to help you.'
'Then you should know about Inuyasha. Mom what am I suppose to do? He kissed another girl and...'
'Kagome. I can't tell you exactly what to do but I can give you advice. Now you love him don't you?'
'Yes. I do.'
'Then all I can tell you is listen. Listen to him.'
'No! I can't! I don't want to.'
'Sweety. I know you love him. And I've seen how much he loves you. Just listen to him sweety.'
'But. I don't know. I just can't mom. I can't do it.'
'Listen. And remember this honey. I love you so much. And I miss you. Don't forget that I will always be here for you no matter what. I am always watching and protecting you. I must go now. But remember my words. Listen okay. I love you, my Kagome.' Kagome saw as her mom started to fade away in her mind.
'Wait mom! No you can't leave me yet!' Kagome yelled but it was too late. Her mom was gone and her mind went blank again. "I love you mom. I miss you so much." Kagome said as a tear came down her cheek. Soon more tears came pouring out of her eyes. She missed her mom so much it hurt. She sat against the tree with her knees brought up to her chest and her head buried in her arms.
-Inuyasha-
Inuyasha was driving around everywhere. He had the window down in case he caught her scent. He's been around the whole block at least 10 times. He had no clue where to look.
"Kagome. Where are you?" He thought out loud.
He tried calling her cell phone a million times already but all he got was her voicemail. Maybe she left her cell phone at Sangos house. He didn't have time to think about that he had to find Kagome. It was going to get dark really soon. The sky was already starting to darken a bit. Now that it was winter it started to get dark early. He stopped searching around their neighborhood and decided to go back to where she used to live and search around there. Then all of a sudden it started to snow.
'Damn. Now she's definatly going to get sick. I have to find her soon. Kagome please be okay.' Inuyasha thought.
-Kagome-
Kagome has calmed her crying but was still in the same position with her head buried in her arms and her knees brought up to her chest. She shivered and looked up. That's when she noticed it was lightly snowing. Maybe she should head back now it was starting to get really cold. She looked at the tree once more then got up.
"Bye mom. I love you so much." Kagome said and walked away. It was getting dark already and it would be completely dark in less then twenty minutes. She crossed her arms over her chest in attempt to keep a little warm. She started to walk on the street trying to figure out which was the fastest way to get back to Sangos house.
She walked for a couple of minutes not knowing where she was really going because she was so deep in thought. She didn't even notice when a silver convertable stopped next to her on the street.
-Inuyasha-
Inuyasha was driving around her old neighborhood when he saw Kagome walking on the street. She was walking back from an old abandoned shrine that was down the block from where she used to live. He wondered why she was back here. She looked really cold even from the distance he noticed her shiver.
He stopped next to her on the sidewalk. She didn't seem to notice. He got out quickly.
"Kagome?" He said walking around the car. She didn't answer the first time. "Kagome?" He said a little louder breaking her out of her thoughts.
She turned her head quickly at the sound of his voice. "Inu-Inuyasha?"
"Kagome are you ok? Look I know you're mad at me but let me at least give you a ride back to Sangos house." Inuyasha said walking up to her.
Kagome looked away from him. She felt something warm on her shoulders and noticed Inuyasha gave her his jacket. She opened her mouth to speak but nothing came out. 'Mom. Please help me. I don't know what to do.' She thought.
'Listen Kagome.'
She heard her moms voice again but she couldn't see her this time. She looked towards the sky and nodded with tears welling in her eyes. Inuyasha noticed the tears beginning to form and grew concerned.
"Kagome? Are you okay?" He asked.
She looked at him and nodded. "C-Can we go in the car?" She asked. He nodded as they both got in the car. Once Inuyasha got in his side he quickly turned on the heater. "I'm listening." Kagome said looking forward out of the windshield.
Inuyasha stared at her for a while until he figured out what she meant. "Kagome. I'm so sorry...but I didn't do anything. Kikyo...she came on to me. She kissed me at the exact time you came so it looked like I wasn't doing anything to stop her. I was going to push her away immediatly but you came so she had already pulled away. Kagome you know more than anyone how much I hate her. Now do you think I would really let her kiss me? Kikyo?" He asked looking at her. Kagome stayed silent but looked down. "Please forgive me Kagome. I love you so much and I will not stop until I get you back to me."
