Ch.2 Trespassing

Kagome was galloping through the woods; she could sense that Link was getting tired so she slowed back into a trot. She must be close to reaching the end of the woods because they were beginning to thin.

Pretty soon the woods stopped and it looked like she was in a field.

"Hey! Get out!" Link stopped and a flash light hit Kagomes eyes, she put her hand up so she could see.

"Hey don't do -" They took the flash light off her and pointed the light toward the ground.

"Kikyo?" Kagome got off her horse and approached the two strangers. "I didn't know you could ride a horse? What are you doing here?"

"I'm not Kikyo. And what do you mean get out?"

One of the strangers stepped closer to her and put the flashlight on her face. "Yeah your right, now that I look your not Kikyo…" He turned to the other man and whispered. "Too ugly."

Kagome was shocked at how rude these people were being, she didn't even know who they were!

"Your on our property… are you a stalker, do I need to put up an electric fence?"

"No…I don't even know who you are, and I'm sorry but I was never sure where my property ended." Kagome climbed back on her horse.

"So your our neighbor…" The man looked at the other. "I never knew any one lived in that old house." He turned back toward her. "My name is Sesshomaru and this is my brother Inuyasha." Inuyasha rose his hand in a small jester of saying hello. "Now never come on to our property again. You may get away with it this time but never again… Stalker."

"For the last time I'm not a STALKER!"

"Sure… I'll be putting that fence up soon so watch out."

Kagome sighed and trotted away.

"Wow, she was rude." Inuyasha turned and walked towards their house.

"Tell me about it."

-o-

"Jerks." Kagome Trotted on home. She was exhausted. Shed been riding fro a while it was probably about midnight now.

She wondered if her mom was home. She'd been going out allot lately. Mostly to church but it didn't really add up. If she remembered right church was only about an hour long… she hadn't gone in a year or two, but that sounded right.

Her mom left for-. Low branch. Close one, that wouldn't be that good getting hit by a tree branch. She should try to stay focused, but its so hard not to get lost while your riding.

Back on the subject… which was?

-o-

"What are you doing?"

"Calling Kikyo. Why?"

"You two are broken up." Sesshomaru went over to him and hung up the phone.

"So…"

"So you have no reason to call her now."

"I was going to tell her we saw a girl who kind of looked like her. And besides I can still call her, were still friends."

"Right your still friends… sure."

"Hey don't get all mad just because you have no female friends."

"I have female friends."

"Really? Name one?

"Well there's… Sarah."

"Sarah died."

"So… I have… Sarah still counts. She and I were great friends."

"You've never even had a girl friend have you?"

"Yes I have. Sarah."

"Any one else…"

"Hey I can't get a girl friend any time any day."

"You want to make a bet?" Inuyasha pulled out a pen and a tablet from under the living room table

"Sure."

Inuyasha began to write the terms. "Your not going to go after our new neighbor are you?"

"No. I already told her I never want to see her again. Besides she's rude, and a stalker."

"So here are the terms."

"And I saw the way you were looking at her."

"I wasn't looking at her any special way, now stop trying to get off subject."

"What ever."

" If I was looking at her in a `special' way it was because she looks like Kikyo." "

"Ok ok, back on to subject."

"You must find a girl. Of coarse. She must actually like you, no paying anyone off. You have… one or two weeks?"

"I can do it in one."

"Confident are we… ok you have one week. It has to be a real relation ship, has to last for at least… a month." Sesshomaru nodded. "And If I lose you can… want to just make it a money bet?"

"That will be fine. If I find a girl friend and keep her for at least a month you pay me 500 bucks, and if I lose I pay you 500 bucks."

"Sounds good my friend." They shook hands and signed the paper.

-o-

"Kagome!"

"What!" Kagome called from her room

"Aren't you going to ride link today?" Kagome walked down the steps.

"I'm going to ride him later on."

"But it'll get dark. You can't ride in the dark." Her mom sat down at the kitchen table.

"Where have you been..." Kagome came in the kitchen and opened the fridge. "I always ride in the dark.

"Well if you ride in the dark at least ride in the field, stay out of the woods."

"The woods is usually the only place I ride now."

"Oh. You should stop that, and can you take Taki out for a ride to night? And clean her stall?"

"Why where are you going?" Kagome sat down at the table with a snack.

"I have to go to work. Remember I have to go out of town on business Thursday."

"Right in 3 days I know."

"You going to be ok by yourself?"

"Yes."

"Oh I'm not going to see you much before I leave so I'm telling you this now, Pay attention."

" OK I'm listening."

"Don't forget to clean Link and Taki. No people over, which means no parties, and can you do me a favor? Only ride in the day. And wear your helmet and stay out of the woods. And ride for only a little while. The woods are dangerous. There could be strange people wondering around there."

"OK ok." `Moms worry so much. But what they don't know won't hurt them. Best not tell her about my encounter with those people. Or does she already know… Its not really a big deal but if she herd about it, she might forbid me to go into the woods all together.'

Kagome had a little worried look on her face. "Yes I know about your encounter."

"Who told you."

"There dad and I are quite good friends."

"Really? Well don't worry I wont be talking to them ever. There rude jerks. How could you be friends with their dad?"

"He's very nice. You really should get to know them better."

"I think I'll pass." Kagome got up from the table and kissed her mother's head. "See you… when I see you."

-o-

"Taki Taki Taki." Kagome petted the horse's head. "Why is it that you dirty your stall so much faster than link?" She finished her stall and prepared to ride her.

She hopped on Taki and Went out the stall. Link Whined a little. "Don't worry Link, I'll be back in about 10 minuets for you." Link Whined some more. "Don't worry baby you'll always be number one in my heart, but behind my mom, so I guess your number two."

Kagome Finished with Taki and put her back in her stall.

It was about 11 now, her favorite time to ride. The Moon was at a crescent giving her barley enough light to see, She forgot her helmet again, shed forgotten it a lot lately and was becoming accustom to her hair flying freely.

She rode away into the woods. Her mother would never find out as long as she stayed away from the neighbors yard. And now that she knew where the property line was, it wouldn't be hard at all. Or would it?

It was dark in the woods. Link was in a gallop, and branches flew across her face. She could barley see the trees, but at least link could.

There was a strange light bouncing around in a straight horizontal line. Link slowed down wanting to stop but she pushed him onward. Bad idea.

The line was straight in front of them. Link reared and Kagome felt a shock as she fell toward the ground. Her head must have hit a rock because she was unconscious for a couple of minuets.

Once she awoke she sat up with a hand on the back of her head. It must have been some rear to kick her off like that. Usually when Link reared, which was very uncommon, she could calm him down.

Luckily, Link was standing next to her. At least she didn't have to go out and look for him.

She stood up but was still a little to dizzy and sat back down. On her way down her hand hit some kind of wire that gave her a mild shock. She couldn't see the wires, and she didn't attempt to feel her way around for them.

"That Jerk must have put up and electric fence. And one of those wire ones so I couldn't see it as easy!"
