Previously……

She looked at Shippou who just looked stunned. Then it dawned on her. Lord Touga, of course! It was Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru's father! Now she gaped at the young, living form of their father. So she was hurtled more than 500 years from the feudal era and Inuyasha's dad wanted to rip out her throat, well what else is new. But she had a bigger problem, how on earth was she going to get home? . . .

Kagome glanced at Touga, who was getting more and more fascinated by this young woman. First she's mad, then she's scared, then she's mad again, then she's awed, and now she's scared … again. He shook his head. He blamed it on the whole ningen thing. Kagome decided she needed to leave before she lost her head both physically and mentally.

She turned around and started walking in a brisk pace away from Touga. Shippou was right on her heels.

“And where,” commented Touga, “Exactly, are do you plan on going?”

“Anywhere away from you,” she snapped back. Touga raised an eyebrow at this. Youkai were normally good looking, and most women flaunted themselves at him, but she was the first women, ningen or youkai, not to flaunt themselves at him. He found this woman fascinating. He watched her go. Her walk was confident and independent.

Boke said, “Well it's good to be rid of that wench. How arrogant.”

Touga ignored the imp and followed the tempting miko.

Once she thought they were way out of ear shot, Kagome said, “Well now all we have to do is to find the Bone Eaters Well then we'll go home.”

Shippou bounded up and perched in Kagome's arms and said, “I just hope that the well exists, we've gone back 500 years from our era.” Kagome stopped. The kid was right. Kaede never said when the well was created. She also noticed how the kitsune had said, “our.”

“You right, what if we can't get home,” Kagome said panicked, but then more calmly, “Shippou, I-I can't stay with you guys and Inuyasha. I have a family too.”

Shippou sniffled, “But when the sacred jewel is complete, you may not be able to return to us.” Unshed tears sparkled in Shippou's eyes. Tears nearly fell from Kagome's eyes too.

“Oh, Shippou I don't know what I'm going to do,” Kagome whispered.

Suddenly a voice said, “Perhaps you could accompany me to find you a way home.”

Shippou and Kagome jumped and fell down a hill. The voice started laughing at them. She glared up at the source of the voice. “Touga,” she snarled. Said demon, was standing in a tree, in a very Inuyasha like way. The daiyoukai flinched at the amount of venom in her voice. Unfortunately for him Boke decided to speak up, “How dare you use that tone to my lord, wench.”

Touga groaned. How infuriating this imp was. He always seemed to disapprove of any female thing he took interest in. Naturally the daiyoukai thought his father was behind it. The old coot was always trying to force girls on him. He smirked though at what Kagome was going to do.

The girl picked up a rock the size of the imp's head and threw at Boke. Her aim was true and the rock crushed the imp. Touga laughed softly until another projectile hit his head. He fell out of the tree and onto his rear. “What was that for?!” snapped Touga, angry.

“I left. You followed. You annoy me,” Kagome snarled, as she marched up to the daiyoukai, “You boss me around. I am not a servant. I don't care if I hurt your oh-so-precious, royal behind.”

Touga was infuriated. Never had anyone talked to him, like that. He growled lowly and stared at the unconquerable girl.

Kagome scoffed and turned around, picked up Shippou, and continued walking, completely ignoring the demon lord.

Kagome continued to storm through the forest. She unconsciously went to the village to get Sango and Miroku. She stopped at the edge of the village however. She forgot that they wouldn't be born for another 500 years. Kagome sighed and walked back to the forest.

Touga growled as he followed her scent to the edge of the forest. The girl had insulted him, left without a word, hit him with a rock, and then she has the audacity to leave. He didn't know why his youki wanted to dominate the girl so badly. He growled again as his beast yanked on its chains, determined to dominate the girl. He caught sight of the ningen and moved in for the kill….

Kagome continued to walk through the forest, but the whole thing seemed younger. She marveled at how the beautiful forest was. She smiled and continued walking to where the well was supposed to be. It was there! The old, wooden well, it was there in all its time travel glory. Finally they walked into the clearing only to be ambushed by Touga. She was knocked over by his first attack. Touga hovered over her. His eyes were red with blue irises and pupils. `Just like Inuyasha,' Kagome thought worriedly. However instead of an unnatural desire to kill she saw anger and … lust? Kagome read all these in the daiyoukai's eyes.

Slowly, Touga's eyes turned back into the soft golden hues that she saw in Inuyasha's eyes. The daiyoukai looked over the girl with sadness. “Why?” he whispered softly, “Why do you hate me? I have only known you for about an hour, yet I have never seen anyone except enemy warriors hate me in such away.”

Kagome whispered her reply, “I don't hate you it's just that I don't know you. From the start it seemed that you hated me.”

“I do tend to be a bit defensive at first,” Touga whispered. He got off her and looked at her pleadingly. He didn't know why he felt the need to have the miko accept him. “The well, Is the well the way you get home?” Touga said quietly.

“It is,” Kagome replied and she picked up a frightened Shippou and headed in the well. Kagome looked back at Touga's pleading eyes, begging her not to go. She turned back and jumped. The blue light surrounded the pair and they vanished from the era of Touga.
