Chapter Two

Inuyasha was racing though the forest trying his damnedest to get away form the accusing voices that were chasing him like a pack of hell hounds out for blood. He was running so fast that all that could be seen of him was a flash of red and then it was gone. He was so deep in thought that he didn't ever realize were he was headed to. But then it didn't really matter to him were he was going just as long he got away and got away fast. All he could think about was the argument that he and Kagome had had and then the ridiculous accusations thrown at him by Miroku and Sango.

'Don't care?! Don't care?! How can they think I don't care about her?! I've known her longer than any of them. We've been together since almost the beginning of this whole mess. I mean sure, when we first met at my tree all I could think of was killing her. But that was only because I thought she was Kikyo and it only lasted until I realized she wasn't that she wasn't.'

'I can't believe I thought they smelled the same. Kikyo always smelled like healing herbs, sandalwood and the summer wind. Were as Kagome-- Kagome always smelled like-- jasmine and she smelled very clean and also whatever that strange unnatural scent is that dominates the air of her era. I hate that smell. At least it only lasts a few days after she's been her, then she starts to smell like the forest.'

'But now that Kikyo's been reborn she reeks of old blood, dirt and death. How could I've ever mistaken the two? Besides the scents, their personalities are completely different. Kikyo was always indifferent and distant and Kagome is caring and friendly. Kikyo was compassionate but she never got to close to anyone. I don't think she ever really cared about me at all. She only saw me as someone who could, to some extent, relate to her loneliness. Towards the end it was beginning to seem like what I cared about didn't mattered much; as long as she could get rid of the Jewel and live a normal life.'

'But Kagome-- right from the beginning Kagome tried to become my friend, of course I didn't trust her for an instance, but that wasn't my fault. I mean look how I grow up, look where I grow up. So I am an insensitive bastard, but so what, you have to be if you live in this time. If I didn't act like I cared for nothing, then I'd most likely be dead.'

'I don't see why it's such a big deal that I didn't remember the day of her birth. It's not like I was there or anything, why should it be important to me? But still I 'spose I could be more considerate of her feelings. I mean we have known each other for going on two years now and she is nice to be around. Sometimes I wish it was like the old day when it was just the two of us. That stupid fox-child and damnedable lecher of a monk can be so irritating. And then there's Sango, the demon exterminator. I swear if it weren't for Kagome she'd try to exterminate me.'

Inuyasha suddenly stopped running, all this time he'd been run strait toward the Gods' Tree. 'How'd I end up here? I don't remember running in this direction. Oh well.' He shrugged his shoulders and leaped up to his favorite branch.

'I don't know, but maybe Miroku and Sango-- and Shippo were right. Maybe I was being a jackass. I shouldn't have blown up at Kagome like that. Maybe I'll wait a couple of days and then go back to her time and apologize. I hope she'll forgive me this time. I said some really shitty things to her.' With that last thought Inuyasha closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Kagome climbed out of the sacred dry-well of the well-house in her family's shrine and sat down on its edge. She was thinking of the argument she'd had with Inuyasha. 'I wish I hadn't of lost my temper with Inuyasha like that. It wasn't really his fault. I don't know why I expected him to remember my birthday. There's no reason why it should be important to him. It's not like he was there anyway.

'But it's not just my birthday that I was thinking about today. Two years ago today was the first time we met, and what a meeting that was, all he could talk about was some girl named Kikyo. Kikyo. Now there's a woman I wish I had never met. What a bitch. Jeez, talk about holding a grudge. All she's talked about and tried to do, since she was brought back form the dead, is make Inuyasha's life miserable. Doesn't she realize that he's totally dedicated to her? I mean for gods' sakes he's already agreed to go to hell with her, once the damned jewel is put back together anyway.'

'Argh. The jewel, I never thought I could hate something so much. Just look at all the lives it's destroyed: Inuyasha's, Shippo's, Miroku's, and Sango's and it's in the process of destroying mine I'm sure. Oh gods what am I going to do?

I so sick of all this crap; of all the demons constantly demanding my blood or some such nonsense, of all the humans trying to kill me because they either think I'm a demon or just unnatural because of the cloths I wear. I just with this was all over with. Sometimes I with this had never happened in the first place. If I hadn't shattered the jewel, if I hadn't released Inuyasha, I that damned Centipede Demon hadn't busted though the well into my time and drug to the feudal era-- but then I wouldn't have become friends with Kaede, Inuyasha, Shippo, Miroku and Sango.

Maybe I'll just stay home for a few days and rest. Then maybe I'll this will have all blown over and I go back to the feudal era without loosing my temper with Inuyasha so much. Hah, yeah right, that'll be the day. I going to loose my temper with Inuyasha when feel like it no matter how my rest I get. But at least I'll feel a little better, not so exhausted or irritated.'

With this last thought Kagome got up from the edge of the well and started heading towards her house. She walked up to the back door slid it open, walked into the kitchen, greeted her mother who was making diner. She then went to the stairs and walked up to her room, dropped her backpack onto the floor, gathered some cloths form her dress and headed to the bathroom to take a shower. When she got into the bathroom and started undressing she got to thinking about her supplies.

'Oh, and I should probably stock up on some more birth control pills. I don't want Inuyasha going crazy again like he did the last time I had my period for more that three days. It sure was a good thing I had the foresight to ask mom for them after my first month in the feudal era. I don't even want to try and image what I would have been like if my period had lasted its normal seven days instead of the regulatory three that the birth control pills induce on me.

Hell, I barely want to remember last year when I ended up having to stay in the feudal era for three month and I ran out of my BCPs. Gods what a mess that was. I seriously thought Inuyasha was going to change into his true demon form if he didn't get to screw someone. Luckily, or maybe unluckily, we were in Kaede's village at the time and she was able to make a very powerful sleeping draught that put Inuyasha out for a week. Crisis averted. I just have to be sure I never run out again.'

Kagome finished undressing and turned on the water. As she stepped under the pulsating stream she breathed a deep sigh of relief. She had missed hot showers so much while she'd been gone. Sure a soak in a hot spring was great but sometime a girl just need to a pulsating shower head to beat out those painful knots you get in your shoulders.

"I should probably get some more chocolate bars for Shippo. Also, I think I'll get some more ramen for Inuyasha, use it as a peace offering." She said out loud to herself. Kagome finished her shower, dressed in the comfortable cotton pajama bottoms and a loose t-shirt and headed for bed. As she lay down in bed the last thought she had before falling asleep was 'I hope Inuyasha and the others forgive me for being so irritable these last few days'. With that she was out the proverbial light.
