The girl blinked. "Who are you?"

Inu Yasha took a step forward. "Kagome?"

The girl just looked around, not knowing where she was, or who she was for that matter.

"Kagome!"

She snapped back to him, not because he called her name, but because it sounded like he was referring to her. "You mean me? Am I Kagome?"

Inu Yasha took another step. "What's wrong with you?"

"Wha-What do you mean? Where am I? Who are you? Who am I?"

"But it's me. Don't you remember?"

The girl was starting to get pissed off. "Look, what part of `who are you' do you not understand? I don't know who I am let alone who you are. Man, my head hurts.

Inu Yasha didn't believe this. "B-But you're Kagome. Kagome!"

The girl held her head. "Could you please not shout? My head really hurts." It was all too much for her. She didn't know who or where she was, who this guy that was claiming to know her, and, worst of all, her head was driving her crazy.

She finally couldn't take it and passed out. Inu Yasha rushed over to her unconscious form. "Kagome!" She remained motionless, only enough signs remained to show that she was breathing. "Kagome."

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------"Is Kagome gonna be okay?"

"I don't know. Kaede, is she?"

"Aye, child. Ye need not worry. Young Kagome will be fine."

"Hey, Inu Yasha! Why weren't you there to protect her?!"

"Look, brat, I told ya, I was barely there in time to save her from the two demons."

"This is all your fault! You were s'posed to make sure there were no demons around."

"And ya think ya can do better? I haven't seen you kill any demons."

"Just like you. Ya can't trust a `dog' to do anything right. Whack! Ooowww!"

"That's what you get, ya little brat."

"Stop it you two. This is not the time... to... smack you pervert! Here's Kagome, and you're just..."

"Calm ye selves. Young Kagome awakens."

The girl fluttered her eyes open slowly and saw four people looking over her: A monk, a girl with a cat on her shoulder, a kid with a bushy tail, and an old woman. When she sat up, she saw a fifth with piercing golden amber eyes, which looked straight at her with amazement.

"What's going on?"

The kid with the bushy tail jumped into her arms. "Kagome, are you okay?"

"Who's Kagome? Who are you all?"

The girl with the cat spoke up. "You mean you don't know who you are?"

The girl shook her head.

The monk with a head printed boldly on his left cheek came in. "You don't remember anything?"

She shook again. "No. I'm sorry. Nothing."

"I see. It seems you have lost your memory. What Inu Yasha spoke of was true. Lady Kaede, have you heard of this before?"

The old woman started rekindling the fire. "Aye. When one takes a certain hit to the head, one tends to forget things; perhaps what they did, where they are, or perhaps themselves; in this case, everything."

The fifth person stood up and headed out of the grass curtains of the door.

"I wonder what's wrong with Inu Yasha," Said the girl with the cat.

"I will go see," Said the monk and did so.

"Lady Kaede, if that is your name. Is there any way for me to regain my memory?"

"Only time tells. For now, `tis be wise ye stay here. `Tis safest. We will try to aid ye lost memories."

"Okay."

Just outside the hut, Inu Yasha was having some problems of his own. He sat in a tree above Kaede's hut as he remembered the previous two nights.

"Kagome, what happened to you? Why can't you remember?" He remembered what she said the night before she was attacked.

`Inu Yasha, I wouldn't forget this time, Sango, Miroku, or Shippo. And I especially wouldn't forget you. I promise I wouldn't. Not now, nor ever. Never. I promise, I won't.'

`Why, Kagome? Why?'

"Inu Yasha!" Miroku snapped him out of his thoughts.

Inu Yasha growled down at him. "What is it, monk?"

"Inu Yasha, you have been acting strangely lately. Why is that so?"

"Feh, that's none of your business."

"Is it because of Kagome's memory loss? If it is, then stop acting like a child. We need to concentrate on regaining herself. It may take days or weeks to do so."

"I said keep your damn nose out of my business. Keep doing it and I'll it off your face!" He took Tetsusaiga and its sheath in his hand for reassurance.

"I know how you feel."

"You don't know anything," Inu Yasha murmured.

"But we need to help Kagome. Naraku can appear at anytime, any moment. She is a very essential part of our group. But in her condition now, she is very vulnerable, and there's a high chance that he'll take advantage of this situation." Miroku saw that Inu Yasha wouldn't listen and switched to his back up plan.

"Inu Yasha, do not feign it. I know how you feel. Look, I... overheard you and Kagome talking the other night."

"You did what?!"

"I know I shouldn't have..."

"Damn right you shouldn't have! Monk, you've just shorten your life by five years!"

"What's going on out here?" Sango asked as she, Kagome, Shippo, and Kaede exited the hut.

Inu Yasha looked over at Kagome for a moment before folding his arms and looked the other way with an "hmph". Suddenly, she saw Inu Yasha sitting in a near-dead tree facing the horizon of a sunset and a rising full moon. Then the image went away. `Weird. That seems so familiar, yet I still can't remember.' She just shook it off and walked over to him. "You're Inu Yasha, right?" No answer. "Sango and Kaede have told me about the Shikon no Tama and Naraku, the demon that's after it." Still no answer. "I know I don't remember anything, but I'll try to do the best I can do."

"Just go away," Was all he said.

"For some odd reason, I knew you'd say something like that." Kagome sighed.

"It seems that Inu Yasha is being more aggressive that usual," Concluded Miroku as he walked over to Sango and Kaede.

"Yeah," Agreed Sango. "He hasn't been this upset since Koga last called him a mutt-face and a mongrel and claimed Kagome as his."

"Who's Koga?" Asked Kagome.

"Oh, he's no one. No need to pay attention to us."

"A possessive maniac, that's who he is," Sango mumbled.

Shippo suddenly jumped on Kagome's left shoulder. "Look, everybody! Something's coming." And pointed in the direction of a tornado speeding towards them at an amazing rate.

What's the tornado? Why does Inu Yasha act so cruel to Kagome? When will the cliffhangers end??? Read more to find out. Review, Review, Review!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

See ya next time. (I need help.)
