Chapter 11

Explanations

Inuyasha went to Kaede's hut and explained the recent events. He figured that when Kagome said that he chose Kikyo it was Nanashi deceiving her. He would have to go explain this to Kagome. Inuyasha could only hope Kagome would listen and not throw something at him. Inuyasha ran to the well but stopped right before jumping in. What would he say? Would he just blurt it out or walk into it? Inuyasha knew that the only way to find out was to go and talk to her. Inuyasha then jumped over the side of the well. When Inuyasha got to Kagome's time he could smell the rain. Inuyasha ran to Kagome's house going directly inside. He found Kagome in the kitchen alone. Kagome spun around when she heard the door close. She hoped it was Inuyasha and when she saw him she froze unable to move.

"Kagome."

"Inuyasha, is it really you?"

"Yeah Kagome I'm here."

"Inuyasha, I am so sorry about what I said."

"No Kagome. I'm sorry for going off with Kikyo so many times and for not telling you I loved you sooner. You had every right to doubt my choice."

"Inuyasha its ok Kikyo was your first love."

"No it’s not ok. If I wouldn't have gone with Kikyo so many times then you would have known it wasn't me. I'm sorry Kagome." Inuyasha then pulled Kagome into a tight embrace.

"Inuyasha.... I saw Sesshomaru here in my time and he gave me a rather disturbing scroll. He told me to wait for you rather than to go get you." Kagome said this while tears ran down her face.

"The Sesshomaru of the past gave me a scroll also but it didn't disturb me.... Do you still have the scroll?"

"Yes but I don't want you to read it."

"Why not?"

"I just don't want you to read it."

"Kagome tell me why!"

"........"

"Now!!"

"Because everybody dies." Kagome yelled as tears streamed faster down her face.

"Kagome, I won't let that happen."

"I know. Inuyasha take me with you this time."

"I'm never going to leave you here alone again."

"All right. That sounds......nice."

Kagome's breathing soon evened out and Inuyasha knew she was asleep. She was still standing being held in his arms but oddly she was comfortable even standing.

'My Kagome. I could have lost you forever but I guess my brother has gotten softer.' Inuyasha almost laughed at the thought. Inuyasha had already picked Kagome up and was heading to her room. He sat on Kagome's bed and held her close to him absent-mindedly stroking her hair.

'Damn! My plan didn't work and now it seems that I have one less problem. Nanashi is dead and so that threat is gone.' Naraku almost laughed.

"Kanna."

"Yes master Naraku." Kanna's voice was almost a whisper.

"Show me Kikyo."

Kanna held up her mirror as an image of Kikyo formed.

"Good she is walking this way. Kagura."

"Yes Naraku."

"Go get Kikyo. I wish to speak with her."

"As you wish."

Kagura flew on her feather toward Kikyo as she thought about why he could possibly want the dead miko. She also thought about a plan to finally get her freedom. Kagura found Kikyo at a stream she was calling upon her soul collectors. Kikyo didn't seem to notice Kagura's approach.

"Priestess. Naraku requires your appearance."

"Why is that Kagura?"

"I do not know."

"Tell him that I wish to know the reason why."

Kagura flew on her feather to Naraku. She knew he would not be very happy about Kikyo not being with her. Naraku was waiting for Kagura when she returned.

"Tell Kikyo it is about the hanyou and miko." Naraku knew that Kikyo still loved Inuyasha but he could change that.

"Kagome, wake up." Inuyasha had woken and was now shaking Kagome. Kagome finally started to wake. She noticed that Inuyasha was lying next to her and they were in her room. She looked the feeling of waking up beside him.

"This is nice." Kagome said snuggling closer to Inuyasha.

"What is?"

"Waking up beside you."

"Yeah it is. Oh your mom asked me to wake you so you could eat."

"Well then lets go." Kagome said as she got up. She was still in her school uniform. Kagome took Inuyasha's hand and led him downstairs. Kagome's mom was waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

"I see you and Inuyasha worked out your problems."

"Yes, I love Inuyasha too much to stay mad."

Inuyasha blushed when Kagome said her comment. Kagome's mom couldn't suppress the single tear that came down her cheek. She noticed that Kagome was not her little girl but was now a woman. Kagome's mom would always remember this day with joy.

"Well, lets eat and then you two can go back to gathering shards."

"All right mom. So what are we having anyways?"

"Well it is early sooo.... I think I'll fix pancakes, bacon, eggs and biscuits. How does that sound?"

"That sounds good mom."

Mrs. Higurashi then started fixing breakfast and within an hour it was ready. Kagome and Inuyasha ate and then said their goodbyes. Inuyasha wrapped his arm around Kagome and jumped into the well. Kagome took a deep breath and relaxed. Inuyasha picked Kagome up bridal style and ran toward the village. They stopped outside of Kaede's hut and Inuyasha let Kagome down.

"Kagome!!" Shippo yelled jumping into Kagome's arms.

"Hey Shippo."

"Kagome!!" Sango yelled pulling Kagome close for a long hug.

"Hey Sango."

"All right let her go before you suffocate her." Inuyasha was trying to get Sango to let go.

"Hey Miroku." Kagome said as Miroku came out of Kaede's. Miroku began to walk toward Kagome with his arms stretched out.

"I don't think so Miroku. You may be my fiend but I still don't trust that hand of yours." Kagome had her hands held in front of her to stop Miroku.

"I guess I deserve that."

Kagome just laughed at him. Inuyasha came up behind Kagome and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"So Inuyasha wasn't lying about you two." Sango said.

"Why would he lie to you guys?"

"I don't know.....To keep us from killing him." Sango said almost laughing.

Kagome just laughed.

"So what happened to make you not want to come back?" Miroku asked as he stepped closer to Sango.

"Where to start."

"Father always said it was best to start at the beginning." Sango said stepping farther away from the monk.

Kagome took her advice and started at the beginning and described what happened. She almost cried when she told them about the visit with Sesshomaru. When she had finished her story everybody but Inuyasha looked at her with shock evident on their faces. Sango and Miroku just stood there thinking for a minute. They knew who Nanashi was but they did not know who the other person was. Inuyasha was thinking about something as well. When he got back it was as if Nanashi had never truly been there. Maybe something happened that shouldn't have. Inuyasha stopped thinking about Nanashi and looked down at Kagome.

"So which way do you guys want to look first?" Kagome asked trying to end the silence.

"How about to the west." Inuyasha said as he looked at their confused faces.

"You do remember that is Sesshomaru's land right."

"Yeah but Naraku will more than likely go that way. Remember he went after Sesshomaru for power that one time."

Everybody was shocked that he was actually thinking.

"Yes ok sure." Kagome said seeing as she was the first to recover.

Kagome gathered her things as the others did theirs. Inuyasha just did his normal thinking about a million questions with no answers. When everybody was ready Kagome crawled on Inuyasha back. Sango, Miroku, and Shippo rode on Kirara as they all headed to the west.
