~Somewhere in Western Lands~

"Rin, why did you not follow what your Sesshoumaru-sama told you? You should of not done that against his wishes!" Kagome said.

"Because Rin wanted to see Kagome-chan and Shippou-chan but Sesshoumaru-sama would not take Rin. So Rin, waited till Sesshoumaru-sama and Jaken-sama left." Rin told Kagome.

"Rin, do you know how far to Sesshoumaru-sama?" Kagome looked around. When Kagome saw a greenish-white sphere coming towards them. "Kirara, let's land in that clearing below us NOW." Kagome said and they descended. Upon landing Kagome just slid off of Kirara's back when the sphere landed and transformed and there stood a red eyed and angry Sesshoumaru.

"Miko, what's the meaning of this?" Sesshoumaru icy voice bit out.

"Sesshoumaru, I was bringing back your ward. When she showed up at the village and without you, and found out she left without your permission I knew you'd be angry so, I was bringing her back to you. I told her she should of not gone against your wishes." Kagome said. Kagome turned to Rin and helped her off of Kirara. "Rin, go to Sesshoumaru-sama." Once Rin was on the ground she ran over to Sesshoumaru.

"Sesshoumaru-sama! Rin's sorry. Rin wanted to see Kagome-chan." Rin lowered her head started sniffling. Sesshoumaru looked up to the sky and took a deep breath and let it out then looked down at his ward.

"Come, we go!" Sesshoumaru said.

"Wait, I almost forgot I brought grifts." Kagome said walking over to them as she slid the backpack off her shoulder. "Gifts for Rin. May I give them to her?" Kagome asked looking at Sesshoumaru. Seeing Sesshoumaru nod. She knelt down and opened the backpack. She pulled out a shiny yellow kimono with small birds flying all over and a goldenrod obi. Then three tins. "Here you are Rin, your first gift." She handed it to Rin.

Rin opened the cloth wrapping and pulled out the kimono and obi and held it up to herself. Rin turned and showed Sesshoumaru and he gave a slight nod then she turned back to Kagome "Thank you, Kagome." She gave Kagome a hug.

Then Kagome picked up the tin and opened it "And here is your second gift. These are called brownies and these are chocolate covered fruits. I made these." Rin reached out and took a brownie and a few pieces of the chocolate covered fruit and took a bite of the brownie and her eyes got big and she smiled then stuffed the rest of the brownie in her mouth then after swallowing she tried the chocolate covered fruit and she did the same by stuffing the rest of the hand full in her mouth. Which caused Rin to start chocking. Kagome reached out and pulled Rin to her and started rubbing Rin's back. "Easy Rin. Don't stuff your mouth full like that. You'll be fine. You're like Shippou-chan because he does the same thing." Rin pulled away and looked down and saw three tins.

"Kagome-chan, are all three tins Rin's?" Rin asked. Kagome shook her so Rin looked closer to see who they were for. "Let's see this one's for Rin." Then seeing the names on the other two "Kagome-chan got gifts for Sesshoumaru-sama and Jaken-sama!" Rin said out loud and full of happiness. Then turned and went to Sesshoumaru "Sesshoumaru-sama, Kagome-chan has something for you and Jaken-sama." Rin brought Sesshomaru over. Kagome looked up. "Kagome, give Sesshoumaru-sama his gift." Rin said.

Kagome reached down and picked up the tin and opened it. "These are just like Rin's and I baked these and I put the chocolate over the fruit. I know you would not eat these neither would Jaken because they are what you would call human food but made some for you anyway." Kagome held out the tin. Sesshoumaru did not make a move to take the tin. So she brought them back and put the lid on them and sat them with Rin's gifts and lowered her head and thought to herself "What was I thinking like he would really take and try anything made from a filthy human." Then she looked at Rin "Well Rin, I've got to be on my way before Inuyasha and the others come looking for me and I know your Sesshoumaru-sama would not like that." Kagome stood picking up the backpack and walked over to Kirara and was ready to climb on Kirara's back when Rin's voice stopped her.

"Kagome-chan, don't leave." Rin came running to Kagome with tears in her eyes. Kagome placed the backpack on the ground and knelt down as Rin ran up to her and wrapped her arms around Kagome. Sesshoumaru watching the whole thing transpire.

"Rin, I've got to go as you've got to go with Sesshoumaru-sama. It's the way things are. I'm sure in passing we'll see each other again." Kagome said as she brought Rin so see could look into her eyes. "No more tears alright." She said as she wiped Rin's tears away.

"But I don't want Kagome-chan to go." Rin pouted.

"I would like to stay but I must go. So hold your head up be strong and go back to Sesshoumaru, and enjoy your gifts at least your not afraid to try something new. Now go Rin." Kagome said as she picked up the backpack and climbed onto Kirara." Let's go back to the village, Kirara." Kagome looked to the shy as Kirara leaped into the air and headed to the village.

A little while later Kirara landed in the village in front of Kaede's hut. The Kagome and the small Kirara walked into the hut.

"Kagome, you're back!" Shippou called out.

"It's about time you returned." Inuyasha blurted out as he was holding Kikyo against his chest.

"I'm sorry. I had a little girl who did not want to let me go." She said as she walked over to were Sango was sitting.

"Kagome, when are you going to hand out the gifts that you brought for all of us?" Shippou asked.

"As soon as I sit down, Shippou." Kagome said as a loud thump sounded. She looked to the side to see Kikyo trapped under the now face down cursing Inuyasha. "Sorry Inuyasha, I did not mean to do that." She said as she walked to sit at her spot in the hut.

"Yea, Whatever!" Inuyasha sat back the way he was and Kikyo back the way she was.

"Now then." Kagome said as she opened the bag. She reached in and pulled out a tin and read the name on it. "This one goes to Shippou. Here you are, Shippou."

"Thanks Kagome." Shippou opened the tin. "What are these?" He pointed to the stuff.

"Those are brownies and chocolate covered fruit and I baked the brownies and hand dipped the fruit into the chocolate." Kagome pointed at each of them. Shippou picked up the brownies and put it into his mouth. "I made some for everyone so everyone can eat their own and not take the others stuff." She turned and looked at Inuyasha. Then handed out the others to Miroku, Kaede. "Sango, I hope you like this." She pulled out the cotton wrapped gift along with the tin and hand them to Sango.

Sango took the gifts and opened the silk wrapped gift and was awestruck to see a aqua kimono with the right sleeve a light lavender and a darker lavender obi "Oh Kagome, it's beautiful. Thank you!" Sango said and hugged Kagome.

"You're welcome." Then Kagome picked up the bag and walked over to Inuyasha and Kikyo and knelt down and pulled out a tin that had two hearts joined. "Inuyasha, Kikyo what's inside is the same as everyone else but this tin when I bought it was plain so I took it and had two joining hearts put on the lid and had your names written in each heart to show you that I respect your choice Inuyasha an to show I have no hard feelings and I give my best wishes." Kagome said as she handed the tin to Inuyasha and trying to hold her tears as she stood up and walked over to the yellow bag and took out her towel and shampoo and walked out of the hut with everyone's eyes following her. Inuyasha looked at the tin then back to the mat covered door Kagome had walked out of and back to the tin.

"Miroku, could you watch these for me? I think Kagome-chan needs someone to talk to." Sango said standing up and handed Miroku the stuff and walked out of the hut.

"Sure, Sango." Miroku took the stuff as he watched Sango walk out to follow Kagome. "You Know, Inuyasha, Kagome has shown tremendous growth in the last year and a half since I've joined the group. Kagome must really love and respect you to go through all kinds of pain mentality and physically for so long to give up her happiness for the one she cared so deeply for so you and Kikyo could be happy. Now that is true friendship and love. If you can find it in your heart you should at least thank her for the delicious gifts she made for all of us." Miroku stood up and walked outside as well.

~The Hot Spring~

Kagome had just got to the hot spring and took off her dress and got into the hot spring when Sango came walking up to the hot spring.

"Kagome, could I join you?" Sango asked.

"Sure, Sango. I don't mind." Kagome moved over so Sango could get in and now had her back to Sango.

"You know you can talk to me about anything right Kagome!" Sango took the shampoo and moved behind Kagome and poured some on Kagome's hair then placed the bottle back on the ground and worked it into a lather.

"Why does it hurt so much, Sango?" Kagome still had her back to Sango.

"What hurts?" Sango asked.

"Love, heartache, letting go?" Kagome was fighting the tears.

"I'm not sure why. Lean your head back and I'll wash out the shampoo." Sango said.

"You know, Inuyasha is the first male that I've ever given my heart too. Sure there's that guy back home who goes by the name of Hojo but he's just a friend. Inuyasha was the first that I had seen when I first came to this era. Him there pinned to the sacred tree by Kikyo's arrow. We've been through alot together." Kagome said with her eyes closed while Sango was getting the shampoo out of her hair.

"Kagome, think of it this way. It's Inuyasha's loss. He goes from someone who is caring, beautiful, loyal, and alive. To something that is cold, hateful, and dead. But know this I'll always be there if you need to talk to someone or if you need a shoulder to cry on. You are like a sister to me. You are there when I need to talk, your there when I'm hurting, Your there to help when that pervert of a monk is to much. Speaking of the perverted monk!" Sango picked up a rock and throw it into the bushes. Then a loud thud and ruffle of the bush leave as the rock struck the monk and he was out like a light. "Kagome, it would do me honor to have you consider us as sisters." Sango said.

"I would like that." Both Sango and Kagome hugged. "We better get out and dried and dressed before Miroku wakes up. But I have an idea to cool him down. Help me to get him to the edge of the hot spring." Kagome lifted one side of the monk and Sango got the other and got him to the edge of the hot spring. "Now on the count of three we'll throw him in 1...2...3..." They swung and let go of Miroku.

"Aaaahhh! Ladies come on that's not fair!" Miroku said as Sango and Kagome headed back to the village.

"Got caught again didn't you, Miroku? When will you ever learn?" Shippou said as he jumped out of a tree and landed by Miroku at the edge of the hot spring.

~Kaede's Hut~

~FLASHBACK~

Inuyasha had finished off the brownies and the chocolate covered fruit while talking to Kikyo telling her that Kagome would never do anything to poison him. That she was to good to lower herself like that. That she would not deceive anyone like some people would.

"If that's the way you feel still about me, Inuyasha I'll just leave!" Kikyo had said and walked out of the hut.

"No wait, Kikyooo!" Inuyasha called as he ran after her. They both had not been seen since.
