Kagome packed up her huge yellow bag that was heavier then before. She had brought extra, since she had a new group member, she wasn't at all happy about. “Hurry up Kagome!” Inuyasha Yelled. Sango gave her a sympathetic look, Shippo started arguing with Inuyasha, Miroku Sighed and Kikyo still had her blank expression. It had been a week since Kikyo had joined them. And since then Inuyasha had started becoming a jerk to her.
 
(FLASH BACK)
 
“What?!” the group practically yelled in unison. “I know it's a bit weird… but we can't let her travel by herself now that Naraku is after her” Inuyasha said pleadingly. It wasn't like Inuyasha to beg for something. Kagome sighed. “ I guess we have to bring her” She said as she got up and started to pack up her sleeping bag, since it was already morning there was not point of her going back to sleep. Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Inuyasha looked at her shocked. Sango quickly got up and followed her friend who was now cleaning their camp site. “Kagome are you sure about this?” She whispered. Kagome looked at her confused “and why shouldn't I be?” she asked trying to suppress her sadness. Sango looked back at Inuyasha who was watching over Kikyo and then back at her friend. It broke her heart seeing Kagome act that way. Kagome was a dear friend to Sango, a sister to Miroku and a mother to Shippo and it hurt them all when they saw Kagome pretend not to care, and how she would try to smile even when they knew she could break down at any moment. “But wouldn't it be better to say no? I mean I know you love him and wouldn't it be difficult if she was here?” Sango protested. Kagome looked at her and smiled. “Its true I do love Inuyasha…” she said with a tint of red across her check but quickly faded “but he doesn't love me” she said sadly. Sango winched at the expression on her face. “Kagome you know we're here for you?” She said as she placed a hand on her shoulder. Kagome smiled a genuine smile that Sango hadn't seen in a while. “Thank you”
 
(END OF FLASH BACK)
 
Kagome held onto Sango's waist and sighed. The soft wind blew through her hair making them dance against the wind and the sun shone on them making it a bit hot. She was now riding with Sango because Inuyasha insisted that he carried Kikyo and Miroku was flying with his shape shifting friend. It wasn't that she didn't like flying in the sky with Kirara and Sango, it was just she missed Inuyasha's warmth. She had become a bit distance to him since Kikyo came but still she held no anger. Kikyo had caused all her misery but still Kagome didn't hate her. What was wrong with her? “Kagome we're going down, Kikyo just sensed a jewel shard” Sango said as Kirara descended. That was funny she swore she couldn't sense anything…
When Kirara landed Kikyo pointed to the direction where she felt the jewel shard. “Its faint but I'm sure its there” she said as she hopped back onto Inuyasha's back. Inuyasha looked back at Kagome. “Can you feel it?” he asked. Kagome shook her head. Inuyasha frowned. “I don't think you should come” Inuyasha said looking away. Sango and Kagome looked at him surprised. “But why?” Kagome practically whispered as if she was scared of his response. “It's too dangerous, if we need someone to see the jewel Kikyo will be here” He said still not looking at her. Kagome held in her tears. He was trying to get rid of her. She wasn't even good enough as a jewel detector now that he had his Kikyo back. Anger swelled into her. It was the first time in a while she felt anger towards some one but it wasn't towards Kikyo. “And why should I go?” she asked in a dangerous tone. Her eyes where hidden by her bangs and her body shook violently. Inuyasha looked at her angrily. “I told you! it's too dangerous!” he yelled back. “Is that the only excuse you can find to get rid of me!?” she yelled back, tears welling in her chocolate eyes. “What are you talking about?!” he yelled back not noticing the pain in her eyes. “We've been through more dangerous situation then I can count why is it any different now! Is it because, this time I'm not needed?! Is it because I'm not good enough?! And now that you have the better one I'm not of any use any more?!” she yelled angrily. “Kagome…” Inuaysha looked sadly up at her.
“Don't Kagome me! I've had it up to here with you!!” Kagome said bring here hand above her head to show what she meant. “Sango is it ok if I take Kirara with me?” Sango looked at her confused. “What do you mean?” “Since Inuyasha wants me gone” She shot Inuyasha a glare with so much hatred that it made him shiver. “Sorry Sango, but is it ok if you ride with Miroku just till Kirara gets me to the well?” Kagome asked kindly as if she had never screamed at someone. “Umm… ok, but you'll come back right?” Sango asked worried that she may never return. Kagome knew this and smiled “of course I will, I'll come visit you guys.” Sango nodded and moved towards Miroku. “Kagome can I come? Just up to the well please” Shippo pleaded. Kagome nodded and left with out another word.
 
“Damn! Inuyasha why are you always so mean to her!!” Sango yelled furiously. “She's right Inuaysha, why have you been cruel to her lately?” Miroku asked shaking his head. Inuyasha stared at him dumbfounded. “What are you talking about? I haven't been cruel to her!” he said angrily. “Yes you have! You've been ignoring completely and now you just told her not to come!” Sango shot back. Inuyasha winched as he remembered Kagome's hurt voice. “I didn't mean too…” he said looking away. “Sango I think the reason why Inuyasha was being like that was because he was nervous about having the both girls around him.” Miroku suggested. “well its his fault in the first place” Sango said folding her arms “will you three stop with this nonsense and continue searching for the jewel shard… that girl is gone, there isn't anything we can do” Kikyo said, pointing towards where she sensed the jewel. Sango shot a glare at her but Kikyo ignored it. Inuyasha took this as a leave and jumped off. “She make's it sound like Lady Kagome Is dead” Miroku said annoyed. Sango nodded in agreement. “But I guess we should go… we'll talk to Lady Kagome about this when we get back” Miroku said sighing.
 
“Why that guy has nerves!!” Kagome yelled. Shippo glanced beneath them at how high they where. “Kagome? Do you like Inuyasha?” Shippo asked innocently. Kagome looked at him warmly. “I did but I don't think I have the strength to anymore…” Kagome sighed. Shippo's eyes watered, implying that he was on the verge of tears. Kagome looked at him surprised. “What's wrong?” she asked as she cradled him in her arms, worried he might cry. “Will you leave and never come back?” Shippo sniffed. Kagome was taken aback at what the little kitsune had just asked. Kagome smiled. “No of course not” she said trying to be cheerful. “I wouldn't leave you guys because of a little fight, I'll always come back” Kagome smiled. Shippo hugged her and buried his face into her shoulder. “I don't want to lose another mother” Kagome was now totally shocked. She didn't know Shippo thought of her like that. Kagome wrapped her arms around his small figure “you won't lose another mother” she said softly. She knew what it felt like to lose a parent or someone they really care for, they all did and that's why they all connected in a way.
Kirara landed onto the ground softly and walked towards the well. Kagome hopped of her back and gave a soft rub behind Kirara's ears. “Thanks” she said smiling. She was surprised that after her ordeal with Inuyasha she was still able to smile. Shippo hopped onto Kirara's head. “You'll come back later yeah?” Shippo asked. Kagome nodded and headed towards the well. “I'll see you later; I'm counting on you two to take care of Sango and Miroku ok?” both, Shippo and Kirara nodded. Kagome turned around and jumped in. but instead of a shinning blue light appearing she hit rock bottom. Shippo heard a loud `thump' coming through the well. “Kirara is that suppose to happen?” Shippo asked. He jumped of and landed at the edge of the well. Both of them looked down only to see Kagome at the bottom. “Are you ok?!” Shippo yelled down the well. “Yeah I'm fine but it seems the well won't let me go home” Kagome said rubbing her soar rear.
Kagome climbed back up the well and sat on the soft grass. She glanced at the sky. Just great! She was having the worst day ever, make that the worst week ever. She sighed and stood up. “I reckon we should go Keade's and ask her about it.” She said looking at the well, annoyed. Shippo and Kirara agreed. But before she could take a step forward something came through the ground, grabbed her and materialized into thin Air. Shippo stared at the place where Kagome once stood in shock, before he realized she was gone. “This is bad Kirara! We have to go tell Inuyasha that Kagome was kidnapped!!” Shippo said starting to panic. Kirara nodded and flew as fast as she could towards the last place she saw her master.
 
Kagome struggled, trying to get out of his gasp. He was riding something that looked like carpet through the Air. She couldn't believe it! She gets kidnapped by a weird ass guy who come out of nowhere disappears the same way he came and fly's a magic carpet. What was the world coming to? “Stop moving priestess!” he ordered. “Who are you and what do you want with me?!” she demanded. “I don't want anything with but my master does, he wants to get rid of your pain and make you new women” he said grinning. Kagome looked at him in horror “what the heck are you talking about?!” He sighed. “you will find out soon, but for now I think I prefer you quiet” he said before hitting her on the back of her neck hitting a nerve that made her fall asleep. “Help Inu…yasha” was her last words before things went dark.
