Part Eight: Return to me
Kagome slowly came back from lala land. She blinked her eyes open and took a look around herself. She sat up in bed as memories of the night before came drifting back to her. She blushed at the memory of the things she'd done and said with Inuyasha. Looking beside her, she found him gone and frowned. Where could he possibly be? She grabbed up the nearest piece of clothing she could find which happened to be Inuyasha's discarded shirt and slipped it on.
She smiled as the shirt tails covered her thighs. She could still smell him on the shirt. She climbed out of bed and made her way out of the room. From the doorway she could see Inuyasha talking on his cell phone. He was shirtless, obviously and wore only a pair of gray sweats that hung dangerously low on his lean hips. He had a deep scowl on his face and Kagome had the distinct impression that he was getting bad news. He happened to look up and spot her. He smiled slightly but it didn't hide the fact that he was upset about something.
She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his waist and lead her head intro his chest as he continued his conversation. He wrapped his free arm around her and held her as he spoke with the man on the phone. From the one side of the conversation she could hear, Inuyasha was getting some news about his men. Some had been hurt in the explosion and he didn't like that. She gave him a comforting squeeze before she left him to go to the bathroom.
Standing before the faucet and looking at herself in the mirror, Kagome saw something different. There was just something a little different about her. Sure she still had the same black hair and bright blue eyes but there was something else. Something she could feel deep down inside. Before she could figure out what she was feeling, she was pulled into a trance.
Kagome found herself standing in a dark room. There was a light centered on a blank wall. She saw things that she'd never thought possible. Fighting and killing. There were good times with laughter and love as well. She felt as if she was watching it all like a movie on the big screen. She tried to force herself out of the trance but no matter what she did, she was still stuck in the room. She looked around herself and found no one but herself. She did however see a full length mirror against the wall and walked over to it. As if things weren't strange enough, what was a mirror doing here?
She looked at her reflection thinking how young she looked. It wasn't until a moment later that she realized the smiling reflection was no reflection at all but another person.
“Kagome,” she whispered. That's who the other person was. She was the Kagome they'd all been searching for including herself.
“It took me a long time to find you,” her voice said from the other side of the mirror.
“What?” she asked as she looked at her reflection.
“I've been looking for you. You can't just walk around in a person's body, especially without their memories you know. I can't allow you to live my life.”
“Who are you?” she asked although she already knew the answer to that.
“I'm Kagome of course. Inuyasha, the man you've spent the last few days with is my mate. I wanna thank you for being there for him these past days but he's mine and it's my life. I have to go back.”
“Where will I go?” she asked Kagome.
“Nowhere. You'll still be here. We are after all the same person.”
“Oh,” she said softly.
“Are you ready?” Kagome asked. A hand reached out of the mirror for her own. She could only stare at it as the other hand took hers. The rest of the body came out of the mirror then and they were standing face to face. “It will be okay,” the other Kagome said.
“I know,” she said with a smile. “I'm ready.”
She watched as the girl nodded then smiled. Soon they both were consumed with blinding light.
Kagome opened her eyes and stared back at herself. She touched her face and the rest of her body. She was back. She was alive and she had her memories. She remembered the good and the bad. She remembered it all. Most of all she remembered…Inuyasha. She turned quickly from the bathroom and flung the door open.
“Inuyasha,” she said catching them man's attention. He looked up at her and gave her a small smile. She couldn't help but stare at him. One whole year. She was without him for a full year. Oh the pain and misery she'd felt without him by her side.
“Kagome?” Inuyasha asked at the intense look in her eyes.
She didn't answer. She didn't know what to say to adequately explain how she felt. She walked across the room and pulling his face down to meet hers, she kissed him. She put every bit of feeling she had into the kiss. She wanted him to feel her. Not the woman she'd been in the last few days but the woman she'd been in the last few years. She wanted him to know that she was his Kagome. His mate.
“Kagome?” Inuyasha breathed as he lifted his head from the kiss and looked down at her. He saw the sparkle in her blue eyes and the brilliant smile on her lips. “My Kagome?”
“Your Kagome,” she said simply.
Inuyasha kissed her again then. She was back. His Kagome was back. He wasn't sure how it happened but it had happened. He lifted her until she'd wrapped her legs around his waist to hold him close. She wasn't close enough. He needed to hold her closet. He was scared she would disappear again.
“Baby I've missed you so much,” he said against her neck and he placed soft kisses there.
“I've missed you too. It's been too long Inuyasha.”
“Too long,” he agreed as he ripped the buttons of the shirt she wore. “Too long since I've held you in my arms.” He dropped a kiss on her bare shoulder. “Too long since I've kissed your mouth,” he said as he then kissed her on the mouth. “Too long since I've been inside of you.”
He turned them so he could place Kagome on the kitchen counter. He leaned into her to give her a bone melting kiss. His hand ran down her naked body and touched her all over.
“I need you now Inuyasha. Please baby. Now,” she said as she tugged on his sweats until they fell around his ankles.
Inuyasha didn't answer. He just positioned himself and thrust deeply into her. They both groaned out their pleasure at the contact. Inuyasha looked deeply into Kagome's eyes and the fact that he saw recognition there was like and aphrodisiac to him. He slowly slid out of her only to thrust back in again. When she gasped, he grinned.
“Take me Inuyasha.”
He didn't have to be told twice. Their coupling was borderline violent with the way he made love to her on the kitchen counter. After he'd given her at least two orgasms, he lifted her from the kitchen counter, and still connected, he walked her across the room and into the bedroom.
“You have no idea what I've been through without you,” Inuyasha said as he lowered them both to the bed.
“I'm sorry,” Kagome said to him with tears in her eyes. “Sorry that I left you.”
“You can make it up to me now,” he said as he moved slowly inside of her. The rest of the morning was spent in bed recommitting themselves and reconnecting themselves to each other.
Hours later, the couple could still be found in bed. Inuyasha was lying on his back with Kagome cuddled against his side. Her head was placed on his well muscled chest and she was tracing circles on his chest. He had an arm wrapped around her.
“I thought I'd lost you forever,” Inuyasha told her.
“You couldn't get rid of me that easy,” Kagome said with a smile.
“I would never want to get rid of you Kagome,” Inuyasha said as he entwined his fingers with hers on top of his chest. “I fought too hard to find you again.”
Kagome lifted her head and looked into his sad amber eyes. “You will never have to be without me again Inuyasha. I found you once and I can find you again.”
“There will be no again Kagome. I will do everything in my power to keep you safe and alive. We're going to live through this one Kagome. Both of us. We have so much lost time to make up for. So much we weren't able to do. We were supposed to get married and start a family. We were robbed of that.”
Kagome gave Inuyasha a wicked grin then. “Well I don't know about the marriage thing, but I know one thing we could get started on right now.”
Hiten slammed his fist through the wall as he received the news. “Why won't that fucking dog die?!” he yelled to no one in particular. He was so angry right now. Why was it so hard to kill these people? This should have been done days ago. He rubbed his head as he turned and looked up at the picture of Naraku…his father.
“I will not fail you father,” he said respectfully. “I will get my revenge on them if it's the last thing I do.”
He then walked out of the room to find his second in command….his brother. “Manten. Change of plans. Taking them all on won't work so we'll kill them all one by one. Get on the phone with Ginta and Hakkaku.”
“Yes brother.”
“You have failed me,” Hiten said from the other end of the line.
“We blew the house. How the hell were we supposed to know that fucking dog would live?” Ginta said into the phone. He made sure to put the other man on speaker phone so his brother could hear as well.
“You two incompetent idiots let them get away. How hard is it to kill six people? How the fuck do you blow up an entire house filled with people and everyone lives?” Hiten's voice snarled from the other side.
“It's impossible for them all to live,” Hakkaku pointed out.
“If you did your job correctly then it wouldn't be possible but we've already established that you can't do that. It would be bad for business if word was to get around that you can't kill one man.”
Ginta scowled at the phone. “We can kill him and we will. They were just lucky last time. Everyone has a bit of luck.”
“Well you deal with it or yours will run out,” Hiten said and disconnected the call.
“Fuck!” Ginta yelled as slammed a fist down on the phone. He effectively broke it into as much pieces as he could. “That fucking dog is mine! No one ruins my reputation like this. Hakkaku get the cell. I have a call to make.”
The ringing telephone woke Inuyasha from his sleep. He slowly came back to consciousness and looked at the woman at his side. She was still deep in sleep. He kissed her on the lips and smiled when she wrinkled her nose and mumbled something. He reached over for his cell phone and answered it.
“Yeah.”
“Bad news,” came his brother's voice from the other end of the phone. “Mina wants to talk to you.”
“Shit,” Inuyasha said although he was expecting this. There was no way his house could just blow up and the police not investigate it. No doubt Mina would think he'd done it himself. “When?”
“Now,” Sesshomaru said grimly. Inuyasha looked over to the clock and saw that it was just after nine that night. Why would he want to speak with him so late? Then again it did look weird that none of them were there at the scene when no doubt the police and fire department showed up.
“Okay. Did he say where?” Inuyasha said as he gently sat up so as not to disturb Kagome.
“Yeah,” Sesshomaru said then gave him the address. “Do you want me to be there?”
“Nah. This I can take care of. By the way let the others know Kagome remembers everything.”
“That's great Yash!” Sesshomaru said. He was genuinely happy for his little brother. The younger man had been through so much in his life.
“Yeah. I want to be done with this quickly so I can get back to my mate.”
“Call if you need anything.”
“Yeah. Later,” Inuyasha said as he disconnected the call. He then turned to Kagome and saw her sleeping so peacefully he'd hate to wake her. He reached over and shook her shoulders gently. She moved slightly before she blinked her eyes open and looked up at him. She gave him a beautiful smile that he would never get tired of seeing. God he loved her. “Hey beautiful.”
“Hey,” she said with a yawn. She looked around. “What time is it?”
“Just after nine. I'm sorry baby but I have to go out for a few minutes,” he said as he started to pull on his clothes.
“Where are you going?” she asked him sluggishly.
“To meet with detective Mina,” Inuyasha said as he buttoned up his shirt.
Kagome shot up in bed. When she'd said she remembered everything, she meant everything. She remembered how the man had it out for them. “For what?”
“An interview. The house was blown up last night Kagome and none of us were there to answer the police's questions. Don't worry. I won't be gone long.”
“I'll worry anyway Inuyasha. You know that man has it out for you.”
“I'll be careful Kagome. We did nothing wrong so there is nothing he could pin on me. Get some sleep and I'll be back before you know it.”
“I can't sleep without you Inuyasha,” Kagome said as she sat up with her legs folded beneath her. “I'll wait up until you get home.”
“I'll be back soon,” he said as he leaned over and placed a kiss on her lips.
As she watched him go, Kagome could not help but feel that they were famous last words.
