~Kagome's Era~

When the blue light disappeared, Kagome was kneeling on the dirt floor of the well. She looked up and saw the wood ceiling. Kagome stood up and dusted her knee's off then walked over to the ladder and climbed up. Once at the top she took and laid out her bow and quiver of arrows next to the well then took off the yellow bag and laid it on the ground, then climbed out. Getting out of the well, she picked up the bag and her bow and quiver, carefully walk towards the door of the well house, since it was dark inside the well house as well as outside. She climbed the steps and walked to the door and opened it. Looking, she saw that there were still lights on in the house. Getting to the house she opened the door and walked in. Hearing the tv on, she walked to the family room.

"Mom! I'm home." She said as she walked into the family room, now dragging her yellow bag but still had her weapon and quiver on her back.

"Kagome dear, welcome home." Kagome's mother said.

"Why did you come through the well at this late hour, young lady?" Her grandfather asked.

"Her and Inuyasha probably got into another fight!" Souta said watching a tv program.

"My friends and I got back at the village late and yes and no about Inuyasha and I getting into a fight. His old girlfriend who he can't get over showed up and now he's having her travel with us. With her around I'm along with the others are put on the back burner and whom he is with right now. So, I decided while I've got the chance I would come home and visit, study, and get more supplies as well as getting a few gifts."

"You mean his old girlfriend who's the walking dead, and who's tried to kill you many times and tries to drag Inuyasha to hell. That you've told us about." Kagome's mother asked.

"Yes! Inuyasha does not see it's a trick how she came upon our camp wounded. We all see it but him." Kagome shook her head. "Mom, I'm going to take a hot bath then climb into bed. It's been a long day."

"Alright, dear. See you in the morning." Her mother said watching her daughter climb the stairs to her room.

Kagome climbed the stairs and once at the top walked to her room and dropped her bag and bow and quiver on the floor and went into the bathroom and started the water. Once the tub was full good enough for her she turned off the water and got undressed she got into the water sliding down till the water was to her chin "AAHHH, that feels so good!" While she closed her eyes for a bit then reopened them and washed herself then unplugged the tub and got out and dried off and wrapped the towel around herself then walked out of the bathroom to her dresser and put on a pink nightgown with a teddy bear on it and went and climbed into bed after brushing her hair out.

The next day she awoke when someone came into her room. Opening her eyes she saw her baby brother. "Oh morning, Souta." Kagome yawned.

"Sis, look at your alarm clock. It is fifteen minutes after noon and since you missed breakfast mom wanted food brought up to you." Souta said as he laid the tray of food on the desk and turned and walked out of his sister's bedroom.

After her brother left her room, she sat up and pushed back her blanket and sheet and walked over to her desk and sat down and ate her lunch then stood up and walked to her closet and looked through her clothes. "Ah what do I want to wear today? Better yet, what am I going to do today that way I can better plan on what to wear. Let's see, I can see if Mom is doing anything and if not see if she would take me out so I can get the supplies as well as the gifts done with." She walked over to her bedroom door and opened it and called out. "Mom, are you doing anything today?" Kagome yelled.

"I'm going into town to the library to pick a book that your grandfather put on hold that just came in, that is all dear. Is there anything that you need?" Her mother asked.

"I was wondering if you could take me shopping so I can get all the supplies and other shopping done and over with." Kagome asked.

"That will be fine, dear. I'll be leaving in twenty minutes." Her mother informed.

"I'll be down in a few, I just need to get changed." Kagome closed the door and ran to her walk in closet. She pulled out a navy blue T-shirt and went to her drawer and pulled out a pair of hip huger pants and black lace underwear and matching bra along with navy socks and got dressed then ran to the bathroom and brushed her hair and teeth. Then running to the desk picked up the tray and walked to her door opened it and went downstairs.

Once downstairs, she took the tray to the kitchen and put the tray on the counter then went in and got a note pad by the phone and made a fast list of things she needed. "Let's see I need to get at least 20 cases of beef ramen, some hot cereal, 6 boxes of brownie mix, chocolates, assorted fruits, shampoo, band aides, gauze, gauze tape, cold medicine, toothpaste, pretty silk kimono and obi for Sango, 9 boxes of exlax to put in the brownie for Inuyasha since Kikyo won't eat any of them. By the time she got done making the list her mother was ready to go. So Kagome and her mother put on their shoes by the front door and walked out of the house and across the shrine grounds passed the well house and scared tree and down the long flight of stairs to the road and into the car.

"So, what kind of book did Gramps have put on hold?" Kagome asked her mother as she looked out of the car window as they drove down the street.

"I'm not sure." Her mother told Kagome. "We'll stop at the library first, since they don't stay open that late on saturday anymore." They arrived at the library and her mother went in and got the book for her father then came back to the car and they were off.

"Were would you like to go first,dear?" Her mother asked.

"I would like to go to a dress store that makes traditional kimonos, because I would like to get a friend a gift." They arrived at the dress shop a short time later. Pulling up to the store both her and her mother got out and went in.

"What is your friend's height?" Her mother asked.

"She is about a few inches taller then I am, Mom." Kagome said. "She's very beautiful." Twenty minutes later they found a beautiful cotton kimono that was aqua in color with the right sleeve a light lavender with the lavender color going up and around the neck. Then at the bottom there was a light lavender band going around the bottom of the kimono. The obi was a darker lavender color.

Kagome and her mother were walking to the cashier when out of the corner of Kagome's eye a shiny brilliant shade of yellow caught her attention.

"Mom, wait!" Kagome said as she walked over to the thing that caught her attention. Getting to the rack Kagome pulled out the brilliant yellow silk kimono that would fit a child. The yellow kimono was elegantly made and looked to be made out of the finest silk. Upon closer inspection Kagome noted that there were small birds flying all over the kimono, the obi was a goldenrod color. "Rin would look pretty in this!" Kagome said and added it to the one for Sango. Then walked over and joined her mother at the cashier counter. "Ok mother, I'm ready now." After they paid for the two kimono's they walked to the car.

"Where to now, Kagome?" Her mother turned on the car and headed out of the parking lot.

"To the grocery store please, Mom." Kagome sweetly said. It took them a while to get from the dress store to the grocery store because it was the time for some people to be getting off of work. When they finally got to the store they got out of the car.

"Here Kagome, take this and do your shopping. I forgot I need to pick up a birthday cake from the bakery for your grandfather's birthday." Her mother said handing Kagome a credit card. About thirty minutes later the shopping was done and both mother and daughter were heading back home. Once back and parked at the bottom of the shrine steps both mother and daughter filled their arms with the first load of grocery bags and headed up all the steps. Opening the door to the house Kagome placed the bags on the dinning table and went out the door and down to the car to get more of the groceries and the two kimono's. Shutting the back door of the car she proceeded to walk up all the stairs again just to drop the stuff off and went back to the car to get the cases of ramen. By the time she was done with the trips to the car which were two more she gladly took off her shoes. Then sat at the dinning room table for a bit before unpacking the groceries.

"Souta could you run to my room and dump the stuff out of my yellow bag and bring it down to me please so when I'm done unpacking the groceries I can pack my yellow bag!" Kagome asked her brother while looking at all the bags that she had to go through. "Oh and bring the first aid box that is in my yellow bag as well."

"Ok sis, hold on." Souta got up from playing his samurai fighting game on his playstation 2 and ran up stairs and dumped the bag on her bed and grabbed the first aide kit and bag and ran back down stairs and handed the stuff to his sister. "Hey sis, is all this going to go with you?" Souta eyed everything.

"Yes, most of it is. You want to help with this?" Kagome asked.

"Ah not really but sure. Where and what do you want me to do?" Souta asked.

"Stand there and hand stuff to me and if it's used for here leave it on the table." Kagome opened her yellow bag and put it on the ground between her legs and the first aid box was opened and on the floor by her. "First off hand me three of the cases of ramen." Kagome said. Souta handed them to her and she opened the cases and poured the packages of ramen in her bag. "If you come across boxes of brownie mix put that to the side. Oh and Souta that small bag by your left hand could, you hand the whole sack to me it's something special for Inuyasha." An hour later the yellow bag was packed and still had room for her cooking pot, eating bowls, chop sticks, clothes, Shippo's treats, the first aid kit and extra gauze and gauze tape, and the tins that will be filled with brownies, chocolate covered fruit, and the kimonos. "After I make the brownies and chocolate covered fruit and put it in this bag I could maybe squeeze maybe something else that is small but that will be closely pushing it.

~Kaede's Hut~

Shippou was moping around Kaede's hut and starting to get on everyone's nerves. Except Inuyasha's and Kikyo's since they still not been to the hut yet.

"Shippou, would you sit down. Kagome has not been gone that long remember she left last night." Sango spoke up while she was working on her boomerang.

"Young Kagome, will be back soon. But ye pacing back and forth moping around being melancholy will not speed her return any faster. So sit ye down and save on our nerves." Kaede said pouring tea for herself, Sango, Miroku and Shippou.

"But it's so dull and boring without Kagome being here." Shippou pouted taking a seat next to Kaede.

"I have to agree with Shippou about Kagome being gone. It seems like the day slowly passes. She lightens up the atmosphere when she's around." Miroku stopped his hand from sneaking over to Sango's butt.

~For Reaches of Inuyasha's Forest~

"Inuyasha, if that wretched girl is just a jewel detector to you and nothing more then why don't you just take back the jewel shards from her and make it where she does not come back to this era anymore!" Kikyo laid in Inuyasha's arms.

"I do not care for her as I do you. I think of her as a friend. True, she's a jewel detector and the cook of our group but, she has stood by me in times of need, loneliness, and who revived me from the spell you put me under as well as the one who drew the tetsusaiga and gave it to me and not to my brother. I've also promised to protect her as I vowed to you. But my life and soul belongs to you and only you as well as my love. That will not change."

"What are you planning on doing when Naraku is destroyed?" Kikyo asked.

"For starters, I'm taking the jewel like I planned all this time and wishing to become a full blooded youkai like my half brother and father. After that I have not a clue. I've never given it much thought other then my wish to be full youkai." Inuyasha laid his head against the tree they were leaning against. Just then his stomach started to growl. "Let's head to Kaede's and get something to eat. I don't feel like hunting for my dinner. " So, Kikyo stood up adjusting her miko skirt as Inuyasha put his semi-erection back into his hakama and stood up and putting his haori on and straightening both. Then kneeling down for Kikyo to climb onto his back. Then he leaped into the tree and heading to Kaede's village.

~Kaede's Hut~

Mean while back at the hut, Kaede had just gotten the bowls and spoons and
sat down to dish up the pheasant and vegetable stew. She had just given Sango, Miroku, Shippo a bowl full of stew and some meat to Kirara. Then dished up herself some and was about to take a bite when the bamboo mat door covering was roughly pushed aside and Inuyasha and Kikyo walked in.

"In-uy-as-ha." Shippou said with his mouth full of food.

"Hey squirt, Mmmm what are you eating?" Inuyasha asked.

"Leave it to you to smell food, Inuyasha!" Miroku piped in.

"Shut up, monk!" Inuyasha growled.

"It be pheasant and vegetable stew. If ye want any ye must grab a bowl and spoon over yonder." Kaede pointed.

"Are you not going to greet your older sister?" Kikyo asked Kaede.

"Ye may have a piece of a soul of my sister, but ye body is made of magic, gave soil, and bones." Kaede said as she dished up some stew for Inuyasha. Then Inuyasha went and sat were he normally sat to eat in the hut. That is when he realized that their was one scent that was missing.

"Where's Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. Everyone just payed attention to their stew not saying a word.

"Mmmm, Kaede this is some really great stew!" Shippou said.

"Yes Kaede, you're going to have to teach me how much herbs and seasonings to put in the stew and what they are." Sango said. "Could I have a little more, please?"

"Was how to make this fine meal passed down, Kaede?" Miroku asked.

"Meow" Kirara sounded licking her lips.

"No it was not passed down, Miroku." Kaede swallowed her food and answered.

"Hello! I said WHERE'S KAGOME!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Lower ye voice, Inuyasha! Kagome went to her era last night and will be gone for a few days to a week. To visit her family and get more supplies as she called it, as well as study." Kaede told the now fuming hanyou.

"Are you going to look for the food every night, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked.

"No! I'll be much too busy!" Inuyasha answered.

"Oh! We forgot you have Kikyo and that takes up to much of your time." Sango said unafraid to say what she wanted.

"Well, I'm not going. I'm staying here and waiting for Kagome because she said she's going to bring back something for me and all of us. So I want to be here waiting for her." Shippou said.

"Feh! Fine, we'll wait but the day after she returns we all are heading out!" Inuyasha said handing out the bowl for more stew. Kaede filled it and he slurped it down.
