An Unrevealed Secret, A Hidden Past

Disclaimer: * sigh * If you don't know by not that I DO NOT own Inuyasha you're retarded.

Notes: In this chapter, Raven finds out more about her past! I bet everyone's been waiting for this and the next few chapters!

Chapter Eleven:

An Unexpected Guestin the Sengoku Jidai

The gang milled around the beach that day, bored to no end. Raven was at work, Shippo was playing with Kirara, Miroku was feeling up and teasing Sango, and Inuyasha was dying of boredom since Raven wasn't there.

A few hours later she returned, and sat right down next to Inuyasha.

"How're you do Inuyasha?" she asked with a grin.

"Nothin," he growled. "Look, I have something to tell you. I--"

"HEY!" she suddenly cried, making his ears ring with pain. "SOMEONE'S OUT THERE!" Everyone turned towards the foamy, crystal clear sea. Something dark blue dotted the horizon.

"What is that?"

"A raft of some sort?"

"Could be."

"Should we go and investigate?"

"No!"

"Just wait till it comes to us!"

The raft gently bumped against the shore, and Raven scrambled next to it, almost falling in her haste.

"Oh my god! There's a body!"

"Is…Is he ~dead~?"

"I'm not a doctor!" The man moaned and rolled to his side.

"Inuyasha, carry him to Kaede's hut!" After much begging and whining, he hoisted the guy on his back and walked back through the forest.

* * *

It was a few more days before the man moved at all. He had a practically fatal wound across his chest and various fractured limbs.

"Sir, are you awake?"

"Yes." He voice was nothing more than a faint whisper.

"What's your name, and where did you come from?"

"Agent Nine, came from…America. Who are you?" Raven crawled up closer to Agent Nine. He was pale and sweaty, with his dark hair plastered to his face.

"Raven."

"Mmmm." He opened his eyes and stared at her in shock.

"Could it be! Is it really you?" She looked at him quizzically, until he rolled over, and bowed to her.

"Sir…Agent Nine, you shouldn't be moving in your condition! And what do you mean?"

"You're bosses'…daughter. Looking to find you in plane, got in storm, crashed, ended on raft…found…" He groaned in pain. "Haven't much longer to live. I have to send the message!"

"What message? Who am I? Who's my father?" Agent Nine rolled back over onto his thatched mat and delved deep in his pocket, pulling out a type of jet black thingy with a small antenna sticking from the top, and he quickly tapped in a number.

"Agent Fifteen, this is Agent Nine. Found bosses daughter, not much time until they get her…She's in Shikon Sea…west of the Cays. Get her before it's too late." He turned it off and stared at Raven, pain evident in his eyes.

"What did you mean?" Her heart was racing. This man knew who she was! All of her questions would be answered! She could go home!

"You really d-don't know, do you? You're name is Kagome, Agent One, in training. You're father is Naraku. They will come for you, but don't let them! Defend yourself. They will hold you hostage just like before."

"Who is ~they~?" But soft snores were coming from the man. All of this new information was sinking in. She ~did~ have a life! An exciting one at that! They must be the bad guys, and Agent Nine came to warn her! They held her hostage! Anger ran through her, but she was much to excited to worry about all that. She knew who she was! But parts were still unclear. What was her profession? What was her father, Naraku, that he was some kind of boss? Where they Agents working for the good guys? These questions danced in her head like jumpy flames. [As you can see, she is very naïve]

Raven…I mean Kagome, wouldn't tell her friends until everything was clear, and she fell asleep, a happy grin on her face.

* * *

Kagome woke early in the afternoon that day. No one was around, not even Agent Nine. Was he feeling better? Was he healed enough that he could be walking around? No! Impossible! Only Inuyasha could heal with that speed. Quickly, she shrugged out of her sleeping gown and into her working dress, which was getting a little frayed at the edges. She bumped into Kaede outside in her haste and mumbled an apology.

"Where is Age-I mean, the stranger?" Kagome asked worriedly. Kaede turned sad old eyes to the eager teen.

"I'm sorry, Raven, he passed away in the night. Those wounds were too much for him to stand, but he seemed so much better last night." She shook her head and looked at Kagome's tear filled eyes.

"NO! He can't be dead, I mean…"

"It's not your fault, child." She knew it was vain, and inconsiderate, and selfish, but now how was she supposed to figure out her past?

"Where…where did they take the body?"

"Near the graveyard to be burned." She felt something icy cold hit the pit of her stomach. "Would you like to…"

"No thanks, but I'll visit the grave later." Kagome chewed her lip in frustration and distress. Kagome: Agent One. That named played in her head over and over again. "Where are the others?"

"At your `secret' little place." She nodded and walked slowly through the woods.

Inuyasha was in a different tree this time, Shippo and Kirara swimming the stream, and Miroku was laying on the ground, a red handprint on his cheek, Sango standing over him, breathing fire.

"Guys," everyone diverted their attention to her and she suddenly felt self-conscious. "I've got something to tell you."

* * *

When she was done, all of them stared at her opened mouthed[except for Kirara of course]

"Your real name is Ka…go…me?"

"Yes." She nodded.

"Are you sure Agent Nine was a good guy and it wasn't just some well thought out plan? For all we know, he could be plotting your murder right now!"

"I am not positive, but They-the people who he talked about-kept me hostage! I have had a vague dream about that a long time ago and dismissed it and he will not plot my murder…he is dead."

"Oh."

"What do you remember about the dream?"

"Not much." All eyes were on her. "All I remember is that I was tied to a chair with ropes that were cutting in my skin and I was bleeding. There was lots of blood everywhere. That's all." She gulped and looked at her friends. Was it possible that she was a bad guy? ~Nay, I mean, I have lots of friends and…~

"Are you OK?" Inuyasha's voice broke into her thoughts.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Is it possible that you ~are~ captured by the bad guys and your Agents or whatever came to get you and there was a big battle?" Sango asked.

"Very likely." Miroku still had skepticism around the corners of his deep eyes, but gave her a smile. "But we still have full trust in you R-Kagome, no matter who are what you are." A tear threatened to trickle down her cheek, but she dabbed it away. She had such good friends!

"I think I should hold an investigation, you know, so I can get this all figured out."

"Maybe you should take a break, I mean, this has to be weighing pretty heavy on your mind." Kagome nodded.

"Yeah, I guess so." She didn't like to lie to her friends, but the wanting to figure out what had happened to her was like a persistent itch that wouldn't go away. Inuyasha, who had been particularly quiet throughout the discussion offered her a ride home, and she quickly accepted.

Though it was late afternoon, she felt like a quick nap. When Kagome woke up, it was early evening.

"I think I'll have to have a talk with old Kaede."

~*End of another sucky chapter. I really had no idea on how to write this chapter, but I know it needs definite improvement. I am open to your suggestions[like on Kagome's reactions, thoughts, ect.] just send in reviews! Well, the next chapter is ultra short, but is followed by a semi-long chapter in which Kagome finds out what she really is: a good guy or a bad guy. But I won't write it unless I get at least 40 reviews. Isn't that evil? Adios until next time*~
