[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
*Chapter 2*


Through the heat of passion he felt a presence, then it hit him. The sweet smell of his traveling companion, Kagome. He looked up just in time to catch a glimpse of her dark raven hair, all the color drained from his face. He tried to get up from Kikyou, only to have her hold him tighter to her chest.

"Where do you think you are going?" she whispered huskily. "You belong to me, remember the promise you made, love?"

With a quick, hard shove against her chest he pushed himself up from her. 'Oh Gods, what have I done' he thought feeling nothing but shame. "KAGOME!!" he yelled into the night and took off after her. Though she had only left his sight just mere seconds ago she was no where to be seen. He quickened his pace knowing exactly where she was going, she always went there after they fought or he had hurt her. He was too wrapped up in catching up with her that he failed to notice the smell of his half-brother.

He got to the well just in time to see his half-brother and Kagome fall into it. Looking down into the well he saw what he had expected to see, absolutly nothing. 'She is in danger, I don't care how mad she is going to be at me I am going after her' he thought and with that he jumped into the well.

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

'He is mine and I am finally rid of that supposed reincarnation of myself' smiling wickedly at her thoughts she turned to leave calling to her soul catcher demons.

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

S he came to at the bottom of the well and imediately felt something heavy laying across her chest. She blinked a couple of times to adjust her eyes to the darkness that surrounded her trying to figure out what was laying on her. She heard the muffled moan coming from whatever that was now slowly coming into consciousness. Then it hit her, Sesshou-maru had grabbed her as she fell into the well. That had to be who was laying across her, realizing that she immediately pushed him off her and stood at the same time. He hit the floor with a loud thud.

"Shit, this isn't good" she mumbled to herself. 'He isn't going to be happy' she thought 'I will just have to take him back as soon as he wakes'. With that she sat down to wait for him to come to completly.

As he started to wake he could feel a fuzzy feeling in his head, something soft and warm layed beneath him. Then he was on the floor, hitting his head on the hard cold ground as he landed. Grabbing his head to subdue the pain that had shot through it, he opened his eyes. He knew he was at the bottom of the well that the girl had thrown herself into. 'How long have I been out' he wondered as he stood. He could sense her presence to the right of him, sitting quietly, still feeling the immense anger that radiated off of her.

He turned to her, grabbing her arm pulling her to her feet. "Are you quite done trying to kill yourself, wench?""I wasn't trying to kill myself you baka, I was trying to get home in which I have done. And I have a name, Kagome...KA-GO-ME, not wench! Now if you don't mind I need to take you back, I do not want you here, come with me now" she ordered as she roughly pulled her arm out of his grasp.

'What the hell was she talking about' he wondered 'we are at the bottom of the well, surely she didn't live here'. He followed her, not because she ordered him to, but because his curiosity was now getting the best of him. As they made their way to the top of the well the smells and sounds hit him like a brick wall. The stench of humans overwhelmed his sense of smell, the sounds of passing cars flooded his ears, which grew louder with each second that passed. He let out a low growl of anger and turned to Kagome, 'Where has this witch taken me.'

She heard the growling and turned in enough time to see his hand reach out to take hold of her. She couldn't dodge out of the way quick enough and was caught in his grasp yet again. She could see anger flash through his eyes, at least she thought that was what she had seen for his face was now emotionless. "Where have you taken me, witch?" His voice sending icy shivers down her back. "I told you, I went home" she stared coldy at him, her grey/blue eyes piercing him like daggers "You see I live in the future, not that I am expecting you to believe me nor do I care. What matters now is me getting you back to your time."

He stared at her taking in her beauty 'She always looked the best when she was mad'. The corner of his mouth slightly twitched making the closest thing to a smile he had done in a long time. 'Gods what am I thinking' mentally slapping himself out of it. 'She is just a human, a disgusting human'. With that thought he yanked her to the door of the well shrine, he wanted to see if what she had said was true and she was going to show him wether she liked it or not. "Open it wench!" he ordered. The smell of her fear slowly crept up into his sensitive nose and he knew he had her.

She blinked a couple times to push back the tears of fear that had welled up in her eyes. She knew she couldn't stop him even if she wanted to and unlike Inu Yasha she had no control over the Great Demon Lord. She sighed, swallowing back her fear and pride, she looked him straight in his eyes. "Fine, you can stay here", 'not that I have a choice in this matter' sighing mentaly to herself, "but you must promise me not to hurt any one. Today is my birthday and my Momma is throwing me a party. You will not ruin this for me, your brother has already done enough damage today. If you make me this promise and keep it, I will take you out tomorrow and show you Tokyo." With that said she stood there in silence and waited for his reply, praying silently that he would agree.

After a few moments of complete silence, pure torure for Kagome, he answered. "Fine I will make you this promise, and you will do well by keeping your end of the agreement." With a sigh of relief she opened the door that led out of the shrine and headed towards her home. Blinded temporarily by the sudden rush of sunlight to his eyes, he followed her, taking in his surroundings. He stopped and stared in awe when he noticed the tall structures which made his home look like that of peasant's. Noticing that he wasn't moving she quickly turned back towards him, grabbed his arm and pulled him into her house.

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

He hit the ground hard and howled in pain, 'What the fuck?'. He looked down and saw that he had not gone through the well as he always had in the past. He stood there in disbelief for a few seconds then he started to claw at the ground trying desprately to get to Kagome. A low growl started to form in the lowest depths of his chest, slowly working it's way up. By the time it reached his mouth he had thrown his head back and a single name rumbled from his body. "K-A-G-O-M-E!" The sound of animals rushing out of the area lasted for a few seconds, then everything grew deathly quiet except for the sound of almost silent tears that fell from his eyes.

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Back in Kaede's village all the villagers, including the three other traveling companions, heard his yell. Everyone stopped what they were doing, then they all ran in fear scurrying as fast as they could to get into their homes.

"Was that who I think it was?" a trembling Shippo asked his companions. "I think it was" Sango replied unable to hide her fear as well. None of them had ever heard such a frightening sound come from their friend.

Miroku was the first to break the silence after she had spoken. "I think that our friends may be hurt, needing our assistantce. We should go." They said nothing else, both Shippo and Sango just nodded their heads in response. They grabbed their weapons quickly and headed out the door.
