~ Kaede's Hut ~
    
  It was almost sunrise when Inuyasha walked into the hut. Everyone was sound asleep.
 
  "Feh! I can't believe everyone's still asleep! Hey, get up, we hunt for shards today!" Inuyasha spoke.
    
  "Mmmmm huh! What's that Inuyasha?" Kagome yawned.
    
  "I said, get up we search for shards today starting this morning. So if you want to eat, then get up now! We leave soon. What are we going to eat this morning anyhow?" Inuyasha asked.
    
  "For you, a Milk Doggy Bone!" Kagome said harshly.
    
  "A Milk Doggy Bone? What's a Milk Doggy Bone?" Inuyasha asked.
    
  "It's what us humans, give their pet dogs to freshen there breaths when their breaths stinks like something crawled into their mouth and died.
That, Inuyasha, is a Milk Doggy Bone!" Kagome said holding in a laugh.
    
  Inuyashs then thought, "Does she know I was with Kikyo all night?"
    
  "Inuyasha, Kagome's going to the village seamstress to get fitted to have clothes made to wear, since she can't go back home and since she'll be going to the ceremony," Shippo blurted out.
    
  "Besides, there's only 4 pieces of the jewel left to get. The two Kouga has, the one Sango's brother has and one other. Other than the ones I have here pulling out her new neck lace with a bottle and shards in it. Also, the ones that Naraku has and the ones Kikyo took from us and gave
to Naraku. So we only have to find one only piece.
    
  Just then they heard a group of village men "Stop! Who be you seek here, youkai?"
    
  "I was sent here to give this to a miko named Kagome," the youkai said, as everyone ran outside.
   
   Kagome spoke up. "I'm Kagome. Please tell us who you are and where you are from!" She noticed the youkai was a male in his humanoid form. Judging by the stripes all over his body he was a white tiger. He had white hair with black stripes. His eyes were an aqua color.
    
  "My name's Naoko {which mean Honest in Japanese}, I was sent by Lord Kaori and Lady Yukiko to give these gifts to you to show their deepest regret for the scare at the lake." A package neatly wrapped with orange silk fabric white cord was handed to Kagome.
    
  "Thank You. Tell the Lord and Lady of the Eastern Lands thank you and I accept their gift," she said sweetly with a smile. The tiger bowed to
her and then turned into his true form and ran towards the east.
 
  Kagome went back to the hut and unwrapped the gift. When she opened the bundle, she was shocked to see four elegant kimono's.
    
  "Kagome-chan, what's this?" Shippo said picking up a pouch.
    
  "I have no clue Ship... It's a shard. But how? Well, Inuyasha, we don't have to worry about were the last shard is. So now the only shards are
the one's Kouga has because Naraku has the one in Kohaku's back," She said.
    
  Untill lunch came around, Kagome took Sango to the hot spring to get her mind off her brother and to cool her temper down because of Miroku's hand.
    
  "It's good to soak in hot springs. It lets your stress just melt away." Kagome stretched in the sun.

    
  "Kagome! How do you tell a person you like them?" Sango asked while poking the water.
    
  Unkowingly a pair of amber youkai eyes were watching them and with youkai ears listening to them as well.
    
  "Sango, are you sure you want to ask me? I mean, look what happened when I told Inuyasha how I felt. What did he do! He broke my heart, and he is with Kikyo every night. When you try to tell
the person, you will feel shy, but take your time. But NO matter what, be true to yourself. At least with you two, you won't get hurt. I just wish I can find a mate to love that won't hurt me, that would love and protect me," Kagome said trying to smile.
    
  "Well, we better get back before the boy's come looking for us." They both got out of the water, dried off, put their clothes back on, and left.
    
  Amber eyes watched the two women leave. Sesshomaru whispered, "You've found someone who loves you, dear Kagome. Just wait, you'll know soon!" He left, so he could get to the village. Kagome and Sango just reached the village in time to see Sesshomaru walking to the hut.
    
  "Hey, Sesshomaru, what are you doing here? Of course you're always welcome!" Kagome walked over to him. Sango walked into the hut.
    
  "I've come to give you this." He handed her the bundles. "Now I must go." Leaning down, he kissed her forehead then moved to her ear. "I do hope you like them. The white one I had a seamstress make just for you! The others were my mother's," he said. Before standing up, he took his tongue and licked her cheek by her ear. "I better go now before I have to fight my little brother," aware of his little brother walking towards them. "Untill we meet again, hopefully soon!"
 
  "Not if I have anything to say about it she won't!" Inuyasha growled.
    
  "SIT, BOY!" She yelled. "Another thing, Inuyasha, stay out of my buisness. We're NOT MATES SO STOP TRYING TO CONTROL ME!" Kagome yelled at Inuyasha. "Yes, Sesshomaru, untill we meet again." She watched him lift into the shy. Seeing amusement in his eyes and a grin on his face, Kagome walked into the hut. "Hey, look what I got from Sesshomaru!" Everyone, even Inuyasha, came over to look. Setting the package down, she noticed that there was a small package and a large package. She desided to open the larger blue bundle. Inside were the kimonos and
things that belonged to his mother. Then she turned to the smaller one. There was a note that had a wax seal to close it with the symbol of the crescent moon. Opening it and read it.......
    
  Miko Kagome,
    
  I know in the past, this Sesshomaru and yourself have been adversaries and many times tried to kill you for one, helping my little brother and two, for being human.
  Yourself and the child, Rin, my ward, have shown me that not all humans are bad.
  I'm admitting that I've showed and treated one such as yourself with astound disrespect. Please accept these gifts that you're about to open as an attempt to repay the dishonorable acts that I've done upon you.
    
  Lord Of The Western Lands
  Sesshomaru
    
  "Aaaaahhhhh! WOW! Who, and where's the real Sesshomaru? Why is he being sooo nice?" everyone asked. Inuyasha was sitting there with his mouth wide open.
    
  "Well, anyways, open your gifts, Kagome!" Sango was like a kid in a candy store.
    
  "Wow, Kagome, turn it around and look at the back!" Shippo said. Kagome turned the kimono around and tears welled up in her eye. "He has this made for me!
It's so beautiful! The Kkitsune almost looks like
you, Shippo!" Kagome exclaimed, wiping the tears away.
    
  "Look on the sleeve, Kagome! There's a paw print on it." said Sango, wrapping all the kimono's up and putting them by the others.
    
  "Kagome, I've talked to the village seamstress while ye and Sango were at the hot springs. She'll have the kimonos done tomorrow by dinner,"
Kaede stated.
  
  "Sango, could you and Miroku walk with me? I need to keep a promise to my grandpa and Sota." Then she walked up to Sango and whispered in here ear, "That way you and Miroku can talk!" With that, all three walked to the well.
    
  At the well, she sat on the lip. "I don't know how long it will be." With that, she jumped into the well.
    
  ~ Higurashi Shrine Modern Japan ~
    
  Kagome's grandpa came out of the house to do his nightly check to
make sure everything was closed and locked.
    
  Kagome climbed the ladder and walked to the doors. She opened the door and checked outside, only to see that her mother was in the house. She stepped out of the well house and saw her Grandpa by the scared tree. She walked over
to him.
    
  "Hello, Grandpa! How are you, Sota, and Mom? Did you talk to her?" she asked, while looking at the scared tree.
    
  "Hello, young lady. We're all doing fine. Sota wants to go back to that era. I can't blame him so do I. Your mother is still mad but she'll let
you come into the house to get anything that you would like to get."
    
  "I'd like to get some things to take to Shippo and Rin. But I need to hurry. I need to go to the ceremony tomorrow night."
    
  "Sure, come, we'll go in." Her Grandpa walked in.
    
  "Grandpa, did you see Kagome? How's she doing?" Sota smiled.
    
  "I'm doing fine, Sota! I'm just picking up some things then have to go because the ceremony for my friend Kouga starts tomarrow. I'll be getting the last shards from my friend and preparing for the last battle with Naraku to get the shards he has in order to complete the Jewel." Walking to her room, she asked, "Hey, Sota, could I use one of your old school bags?"    
 
  "Yes, Sis, go right ahead," Sota called up to her from the stairs.
    
  "Could you get it, please?" She walked to her bed and looked at the stuff so far. "Okay, I've got bubbles for both Rin and Shippo, dolls for Rin,
toy cars for Shippo, story and poem books to read to them, jump rope for Rin, jack-in-a-box for Shippo, paint, paint brushes, coloring books,
crayons, and pad of paper for each { I have to come and get the big paper roll later}, and bags of candy, lastly, board games that everyone
can play." She was getting upset. "Sota, where's the bag?" She turned to see her mother in the doorway with the bag. "Never mind!"
    
  "Here you are, dear! What's this ceremony that you're going to? How long untill your final battle to complete the Jewel?" her mother asked.
    
  "I'm doing fine. The ceremony is in honor of my friend Kouga, he found a mate, and I'm not sure on the battle. It could be at anytime. I mean, when
I go through the well, it might be going on then. We have no way of telling. Naraku's a formidable foe and hard to find unless he wants to be found!" Kagome said, stuffing the bag.
    
  "Kagome, we may not see eye to eye about somethings, but I'm still your mother. Please, when you go back be careful. I don't want my baby to die back in that era!" She walked over and picked up the bag and walked Kagome down the stairs.
   
  Kagome hugged and kissed everyone, took the bag, and said her good-byes. Then she ran to the well. Going into and shutting the door, she looked through the slots in the door and said, "I'll try to be safe, Momma!" With that, she went to the lip of the well and jumped in.
