(A/N): Italics are Kagome's thoughts.

It's been a week since Naraku's defeat, and Kagome, Inuyasha, Ayumi, and Sesshoumaru were in relatively peaceful state of mind.

But the world was still in a full fledged war, the infected countries kept on fighting, but the accused, and accusing countries had come to an agreement to try and not open fire on each other. After they learned of who created this war, and after some apologizing, and a couple other compromises. Though that would be difficult for a while, not being able to fire at their 'old' enemy, but still having to fight their other enemy. It will take only about a month though, for any problem becoming allies though. There will be some, positioning of troops, a little hatred between the two sides, and the difference in tactics. But they all would be corrected by the local commanders, for they truly were many small problems, and the only 'cure' was time.

For Sesshoumaru that beginning of the week was fairly lazy, he was content to just sleep and recover from his wounds. By the time he returned to the base, that they resided at before that battle. Sesshoumaru had recovered from his wounds. And decided to stay around for a little while. See what the 'humans' have done in the previous years. Sesshoumaru had only a few times through the 500 years since the 'incident' happened. The only one worthy of mentioning would during WWII, but Sesshoumaru had only viewed that as a disgrace. He was a little curious as to how their culture had came along. He seen a lot on TV, a little bit of every category imaginable, even though every show was on re-runs.

For Ayumi, she received a transfer after the battle, one away from the frontlines, something to do with intelligence, they want to give her, her own command. After a little bit of training, and enough experience. And they gave her the week off on leave. She spent most of it relaxing, writing letters to friends and family. She even had a couple conversations with Kagome, that didn't involve Inuyasha, she decided to visit the still hospitalized Inuyasha for a little bit, and had a good talk with him, she even had a conversation with Sesshoumaru,. Though something was biting at her, Inuyasha..., she felt sorry for him, she felt that Inuyasha had not lied to Kagome, and tried his best to prove that he didn't lie. She was determined to stick up for him.

For Kagome, they had decided that since she knew what they could be facing, that they should keep her away from combat for a while, and give something her a different task for a while. They gave her the responsibility to train new recruits. For now she's on leave. She went and relaxed for the most of that week. She spent most of it with friends. She had a couple of conversations with Ayumi, and no mention of Inuyasha, which for some reason she couldn't stop thinking about Inuyasha. Stubborn old Inuyasha, she hadn't even came to give him a visit. She felt awful about it, but refused to talk to him.

For Inuyasha, he had it the hardest since the end of the battle. He had struggled to stay alive, the wound that he had taken from Naraku protecting Kagome. It had been deep..., deep enough to keep Inuyasha down for a while, considering the poison from Naraku. He could barely move for the first two days, but by the end of that week after, he was able to move, but with a great deal of irritation. And all he thought about was how he prevented Kagome's death, and his reward... another mislead comment that only served to hurt Inuyasha. It hurt him so badly that had given up on her. The woman that he had loved with everything he had, the woman who changed him, the one to soften his heart. And now the who broke him.


“Captain Higurashi,” Lt Fukizawa addressed Kagome, “How’s it going?”

“Good,” Kagome answered, “You?”

“Good,” Ayumi answered, “Have you visited Inuyasha yet?”

“No,” Kagome answered, “And do not plan to either”.

“What?!” Ayumi stuttered, “Why not?”

“I refuse to be hurt by him,” Kagome said, venomously.

“I believe Inuyasha when he says that it isn't what it looks like,” Ayumi replied.

“What?!” Kagome stuttered.

“He's been waiting for you this whole time for what?” Ayumi replied, “You to turn him down, in a horrible way”.

"I'm not going to him," Kagome snarled.

"He is suffering because of you," Sesshoumaru said entering the conversation.

"He's tough," Kagome answered, "He'll get over it".

"His body may be resilient," Sesshoumaru stated, "But at the moment, that's all that is".

"Really," Kagome answered sarcastically.

"Yes, really," Ayumi immediately answered.

"I'll think about it," Kagome said.

"I do not believe that," Sesshoumaru replied.

Kagome stayed quiet from that statement.

"Well," Ayumi urged, "Can you reply to that?"

"Of... course," Kagome stuttered, "Well..., ahhh..., why do you not believe me?"

"You haven't done anything to done anything as of late to say otherwise," Sesshoumaru answered.

"Yeah," Kagome said, "Like what?"

"Your actions to Inuyasha in our last battle against Naraku," Sesshoumaru answered, "What you did after he took the attack from Naraku".

"What did you do?" Ayumi asked.

"She said something, I didn't hear what she said, and she went forced herself away, and didn't care for Inuyasha's well being," Sesshoumaru answered, "I think she also injured him in the process".

"You did what?!" Ayumi loudly blurted.

"I injured him further," Kagome answered.

"How could you?!" Ayumi almost yelled.

"I'm not going to be second to anyone," Kagome snarled.

"That's just inexcusable!" Ayumi said.

"And none of your business," Kagome snarled.

"None of my business?!" Ayumi questioned, "I can see it his, and... your eyes, you still have feelings for him".

"What?!" Kagome snarled, "How dare you say that, get out of here, your dismissed".

"Well I'm not going," Ayumi snarled.

"Get away from me," Kagome snarled, venomously. So much that Sesshoumaru off all people backed off.

"Well I'm not going to," Ayumi answered.

"You do know what you are doing, right?!" Kagome snarled.

"Yes," Ayumi answered.

"Well then," Kagome snarled, "I'll leave then".

"Oh, no your not," Ayumi snarled, grabbing Kagome's shoulder. Kagome turned around and pushed Ayumi. In of which came back, and slapped Kagome. Kagome was almost sent to the ground from it, and the sound from it. The sound echoed throughout the walls.

Kagome gave an evil glare, and Ayumi could see a lot of anger coming out. So much that it scared her. But she wouldn't back off from her stance. It would be the worst she could do, and luckily for her Sesshoumaru got in the way as Kagome lunged at Ayumi. Sesshoumaru had picked Kagome up, and decided that she should go back to her room, and not going to let her out until she calmed down


He wasn't able to earlier, but he felt like he was able to. He really wanted to get out of there. Away from her. He was still in pain with every step, but he pushed on. He kept him out of sight of everyone as he left. No one knew he had left until he was outside the base. And Inuyasha headed right towards a focal point of the war. He ignored the fighting, and avoided any battles that got in the way. But he seen something disturbing, he seen that the people from the 'infected' countries slightly change their form a little bit. Earlier, they look completely human, but now, there was all sorts of mutations. And they were taking quite a bit of firepower to be taken down. And that... he could care less about. Just something that Kagome will have to deal with herself. He made his way through the well, and headed back to the castle that he had made only for Kagome. Then it hit him, just as he thought about the castle. He stopped and drew the Tetseiga.


She had gotten furious, with Sesshoumaru's actions. She pounded on the door, she wanted to get another shot at Sesshoumaru. When he picked her up she used her purification powers and tried to get loose from his grip, but he managed to hold on. Kagome had given up trying to get through the door, and decided that her window was the next best option. She started to climb down only to find out that she ended up back in her room, by the hands of Sesshoumaru. She gave up, she had tried to escape for hours, and to no avail.

Damn it Sesshoumaru! Just fucking leave me alone! I want out! Why are you defending Inuyasha? I don't know why you have made peace with Inuyasha. Why defend him? You tried killing him so many times, and now he has a peace with Inuyasha. Why can't I think about anything else? Ever since you came back, I've been thinking about whenever I had the chance. How did you get Sesshoumaru and Ayumi to believe you. And Shippo, how'd did you convince him, damn it! Why should I be thinking of you so much? Ayumi is right I should go and talk to Inuyasha. And tell him that I have moved on.

Kagome went to the door, knocked on it, and "Sesshoumaru, let me out, I want to talk to Inuyasha. Sesshoumaru, opened the door.

"Inuyasha has left," Sesshoumaru stated, "I think back to the feudal era".

"Ohh," Kagome replied.

"Happy?" Sesshoumaru stated.

"Huh...?" Kagome stated, she stood there silent, and then it hit her, as to why she couldn't stop thinking about him, "When did he leave?"

"Not long," Sesshoumaru answered.

"Do you know where the well is?" Kagome asked.

"Inuyasha had once shown me," Sesshoumaru answered.

"Can you take me there?" Kagome pleaded.

"Alright," Sesshoumaru said, "Get on my back".

Kagome climbed on, and Sesshoumaru rushed of, out of the building, and leaped out of the fence of the base, Sesshoumaru moved as fast as he could with Kagome on. He manoeuvred his way through the always battling city. All the way to the well.

"This is as far as I go," Sesshoumaru said.

"Thank you," Kagome said.

"I would say to go to the castle Inuyasha built for you," Sesshoumaru said.

"He did what?" Kagome said shocked.

"Just go," Sesshoumaru said, "For I will not be here when you return".

"Okay," Kagome answered.

Kagome jumped through the well, and looked around. She seen it, the castle Sesshoumaru mentioned, it was bigger than she thought it was. And then..., she seen him, she seen him draw his sword. Kagome had the feeling that it wasn't good, and she started to move towards him. What she seen horrified her, and she broke into a full sprint to get to Inuyasha. She seen him point the end of the sword towards his stomach.

"INUYASHA!" Kagome screamed, she would of sat him, but, she thought that would only hurt him more, and lucky for her Inuyasha heard her, and looked. Kagome tackled the Tetseiga, pushing it out of the way. And she would of fell on it, if it wasn't for Inuyasha stopping on her.

"What do you want?" Inuyasha snarled.

"I've made a huge mistake!" Kagome said.

"Good for you," Inuyasha snarled, "What is it?"

"You," Kagome answered, "I acted horrible towards you, and you really didn't deserved it".

"And I should believe you how?" Inuyasha said.

"You don't have a reason to," Kagome said, taking Inuyasha's rosary off, "But won't do anything like that again!"

"I don't know if I should," Inuyasha said, with the utmost seriousness.

"Please," Kagome begged, "For me?"

"Alright," Inuyasha gave in, "I'll give you a second chance for you".



After a couple nights in their castle. Inuyasha, and Kagome went back to her time, they decided to continue to help her time end the war, that they had a hand in starting. And came to the decision of returning to the feudal era after the war ended. Inuyasha, and Sesshoumaru ended up fighting at the front lines. Inuyasha had stayed in Tokyo, and Sesshoumaru was sent somewhere else. They had the same style though, held a slight distance from the fighting, and appear in the thickest of fighting, where they were needed. And the war turned, changed shape, into a fierce battle for survival. The 'infected' were outnumbered, but were turned into half demons, and was going to turned even more brutal.


The war finally ended, many people died, very few remained. The world was in ruins, and the infected were decimated. None of 'infected' had survived. And Inuyasha finally was able to come back home, back to his Kagome. Neither had done anything to hurt their relationship, and their love towards each other had only grown. They said their goodbyes to their friends, and left for the castle in the feudal era, to spend their lives in happiness.
