Ch.2
Finding his keys, Yusuke unlocked the door and went in, Kagome trailing behind him. Walking inside, he kicked some trash out of the way. “Don't mind the mess.”
A figure moved on the couch. Groggily getting up, a woman with brown hair held her head. “Ow… I have a major headache!”
Yusuke walked over to her and picked up some empty beer cans. “You trank too much again mom.”
`mom…?' Kagome wondered while she watching Yusuke from the doorway.
“Mom, this is Kagome. She's a friend of mine and will be staying here a while.”
Atsuko looked at Kagome. Smiling, she walked over to her. “It'll be nice to have another girl around the house!” She gave Yusuke a skeptical look before turning back to kagome. “If my son's being a pervert, feel free to hit him over the head.” Winking she walked into her room, patting Yusuke on the head as she passed by him.
“MOM!” Kagome giggled.
Yusuke blushed. “Well you won't have to worry about me. I'm not a pervert! Here, I'll show you where you room is.”
Walking down the hall, he grumbled to himself about `stupid mom's' and `I am not a pervert!'.
He opened the door, and allowed her to walk in. It was a plain room with a window and a futon in the middle of it. “It's not much, but its better then nothing.” Shrugging, he left her to explore her room. “If you need anything, my room is next door” he called out.
She laid down on the futon and curled into a ball. She spread her wings, and covered herself with them. She closed her eyes. She thought about inuyasha.
Even in this life, he has it rough. He was abandoned as a child and adopted into a rich family. At school he was an outcast, and people made fun of him because of his silver/ white hair and golden eyes. Good thing he's full human. Who knows what would be said if he had his cute puppy ears! He's hated by his older brother (it's not sesshomaru). His adopted parents are kind, but are too busy with work to pay attention to their children. Life wasn't so great for him.
That is why Kagome was sent to be his guardian angel. Only he could see her of course. The strange thing was, he remembered his past life, meaning he remembered her as well. When she appeared in his life, things became much better. He was accepted to college and moved to Tokyo, and found some friends.
After all the time she watched over him, they had fallen in love once again. That's when she decided to become mortal for him.
~Flashback~
That day, she left heaven for good, all for the sake of being with inuyasha. When she arrived at his house, what she saw made her heart break. Inuyasha was on his driving way, kissing someone else very passionately. The girl had long black hair that was tied in the back. She instantly knew who it was. Kikyo.
Kagome swallowed hard. If they had found each other in this life, fate must really want them together. But that didn't keep her from feeling the heartbreak and betrayal.
Kikyo was the first one to notice her. Breaking the kiss, she just stared at her. Inuyasha turned his face and spotted Kagome. Tears streamed down her face. “After all I've done for you Inuyasha, you betray me!” she cried as she ran to the park. Inuyasha only watched her go with sad eyes.
~End Flashback~
Kagome was crying silent tears. Not even in this lifetime could he forget about her. `And what's ironic is how they were both reincarnated at the same time.' She thought bitterly. She was brought out of her thoughts when there was a light knock on the door. Wiping away her tears, she quickly told them to come in.
Yusuke's face popped through the door. “Yo!” Opening the door all the way, he walked in handing her clothes. “Change into these. They should fit you.”
He noticed her red eyes and saw traces of dried tears on her face. `Poor girl, must have been crying again.' “Hey, why don't we go out somewhere?”
Looking up at him, she gave a small smile. “Sure, that would be nice.” She placed the clothes on the futon and walked over to him. She caught him off guard by hugging him. He blushed slightly. Heck, most girls were too scared to look at him, much less hug him! He awkwardly hugged her back.
She reached up on her tippy toes and kissed him on the cheek. “You've been real sweet to me Yusuke. Thank you …” She smiled again. This time more genuine.
`Woah, she's so pretty when she really smiles…' Yusuke thought.
She pushed him lightly out the door. “I need to change now, so run along now!” and she closed the door on his face.
`What the heck was that?' “Mood swings…” he muttered under his breath. Sitting down on the couch, he turned on the TV and started channel surfing to kill time.
Finally, Kagome came out. The white shirt was a little big, but clung to her chest, and the blue baggy pants fit her fine. “Uh Yusuke?”
He turned from the TV to look at her. She shifted uncomfortably. “Do you have some sort of wrapping I can use to bind my breast? This shirt shows a little too much…”
Sure enough she was right. The shirt was a little see through, and left little to the imagination. `I wonder what she would look like if she got her shirt wet…' A mental picture accompanied that thought. He blushed beet red.
“Hello? Yusuke…?”
Snapping out of his daydream, he got off the couch and went to the bathroom. `Now I see why my mom called me a pervert.' he grumbled to himself.
He walked back to Kagome, and handed her a roll of gauze.
“Thanks!”
He took one more look at her before she disappeared back into her room.
When she came back out, her hair was braided, and her chest was flat. She looked like a cute guy with a very feminine face.
Turning off the TV, he got up from the couch and put his hands in his pockets. “Ready to go?”
She nodded. As they started walking down the street, she suddenly clapped her hands together. “Can we stop by my old house? I need to get something.”
“Sure why not.” Yusuke curiously wondered to himself how and where she would hide something for so long. But then again, he didn't even know how long she's been dead. So eh decided to ask.
“How long have you been dead?” he asked bluntly. He didn't mean for it to come out like that.
She blinked. Extending her hand out, she started counting her fingers. “Around 5 years I think.”
“Oh, so wouldn't your parents still be alive?” He regretted asking her that. Her eyes were suddenly filled with sadness.
“No…” she said softly, “they died before I did…”
He frowned. “I'm sorry for prying..” `Great! Bring up more sad things!' he yelled to himself.
“Its s'ok. They died by an accident.” She said, balling her hands into fist. Raw anger flickered across her eyes before it was gone. If you weren't looking you would have missed it.
But yusuke didn't. `I wonder what that was about…'
She sadly smiled. “It's all good. I got to spend time with them in heave, so in the end it turned out ok.” `Except I left them again for inuyasha…'
Suddenly guilt over came her. She felt really bad for what her family went through…
Snapping back to reality, Kagome realized there was a hand moving in front of her face. Yusuke's concerned face was staring at her from the side. “You ok?”
She nodded. “Sorry… I was daydreaming a bit I guess…”
“Whatever. Just don't do that when we cross a street or something…”
She giggled. For now she will forget about the past and enjoy her night out with Yusuke.

After walking across town, they stopped in front of a shrine. Yusuke looked at Kagome questioningly.
She shrugged. “I use to live at this shrine.”
He rose an eyebrow. “Were you a monk or something?”
Kagome sighed. “Monks are guys. Priestess were girls.” She shook her head and started walking up the many steps.
Realizing he was getting left behind, he quickly jogged up the steps and easily caught up with her.
Finally reaching the top, she frowned sadly. Everything was burnt and rotting.
Yusuke looked around the dead place. He remembered hearing about this place being on fire. The daughter of the family was said to be missing. The only thing left was a tree. `Weird, I feel some strange energy coming from it…'
Memories flooded into her head as she saw her house. She remembered the day her family died like it was yesterday.
~Flashback~
Kagome had finally convinced Inuyasha to let her go back home. Climbing over the well's lip, she hopped in, getting engulfed in a blue glow. As she climbed up the latter from the well, she smelled something burning.
She opened the well door to see her house on fire. Her eyes widened, as fear engulfed her heart. Running closer to the house, she looked around for her family. She instantly felt a lot of shards.
Naraku appeared from the shadows with a sick grin on his face. “Ah my dear miko. So this is your world? It's quite interesting.”
Kagome's blood grew cold. `How did Naraku get here?!' she thought to herself.
He laughed. “I bet you want to know how I got here, don't you miko?” he asked as if reading her mind. “Simple, I heard you talking about how you were from the future. So one day, I watched you go to the well. I was intrigued when you jumped in and disappeared.”
Kagome glared at him as he continued.
“I was curious to how you could travel from different times. Then it hit me, the shikon jewel.” He smiled maliciously. “So what do you know? The next thing I know, I'm in a well house with your family waiting for you outside.”
“WHAT DID YOU DO TO THEM?!” she screamed.
“Who? Your family? Oh, I tied them up and left them in the house.”
Kagome's eyes glowed white for a second. “You bastard!” she spat out.
“Now now, is that how you treat someone who merely wanted to give you a present?” he asked in a fake sad voice.
Her rage grew each time he opened his stupid mouth. She clenched her mouth shut, to prevent from screaming out.
Naraku just smirked. He loved her reaction. “I'm so sorry miko, but I must be going now.” And in a quick blur of purple and black, he disappeared back down the well.
Kagome finally snapped. “NOOO!” she screamed as she clutched her face and fell to the ground.
~End Flashback~
When the fire fighters arrived, she went back to the feudal era. She told everyone what happened and swore to avenge her family. That was one of the few times she and inuyasha had gotten close.
Sighing, she walked up to the Goshinboku and put her hand on it. The tree was the only thing that survived the fire. Kagome could still feel the magical energy coming from it, and was instantly calm. She sadly looked at the place where Inuyasha was pinned.
As Yusuke was looking around, Kagome quickly chanted a spell making the tree glowed. Putting her hand in the tree trunk, she pulled out a black wallet. In the past, she had been saving money since she was too busy to spend it since she was in the feudal era so much. Placing it in her pockets she went looking for Yusuke. She found him wandering by the well.
Quietly walking over, she observed his expression. His eyebrows were furrowed together and he looked like he was thinking hard. She placed a hand on his shoulder making him jump.
He quickly turned around, facing Kagome. She rose an eyebrow. “Heh… sorry… ya ready to go?”
“Yep! Now… to the ICE CREAM PARLOR!” she screamed while jumping up and down.
Yusuke sweat dropped.
Kagome ran ahead of him and started hopping down the steps. As Yusuke was walking down the steps, he stopped and turned around. He narrowed his eyes at the direction of the well. `There's something odd about that well…'
