*Chapter 10*
(AN: I added some stuff, though not much to the last chapter so you might want to read it again. It is a scene I had left out of the movie part.)
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
Sh e listened carefully as Miroku told her everything that happened down to where they had last saw Inu Yasha. She felt sorry for her half dog demon friend but she was still mad at him. 'He brought this on himself' she thought. Miroku finished with his story and everyone was quiet. "Well I guess we should go look for the baka" Kagome said braking the silince. "I believe you are right child, but first you must get some rest. You spent alot of energy healing the young kit and you will need to be getting that back." Kaede looked at the young miko in front of her as she spoke.
Kaede walked out of the hut, as she did Kagome stood up and walked over to Sango. She handed Shippo to Sango, looking down to the kit she said, "Shippo I need you to stay here with Sango." She patted him on the head when he went to protest, looking to her friend whom she considered a sister "I must speak with Kaede alone about something. It is important that you keep Shippo and Miroku here. I am sorry if I have caused you any worry." With that she hugged her friend the best she could with Shippo being in her arms and turned to leave, calling back over her shoulder "I will be back shortly."
She found her mentor in the garden just on the outskirts of town, she was pulling weeds from it like she always does at this time of day. Silently she walked up to her, kneeled and began to help her pull weeds. She helped for a long while in silence trying to figure out a good way to approach her problem with out causing great worry. Finally, not coming up with anything, she just asked, "Kaede?" "Yes my child?" "When I was back in my time I was hit with a great force. I passed out from it and I don't know what it was. Do you know what could have caused this?" She noticed that Kaede had stopped pulling weeds, a few moments of silence passed before the old woman spoke. "My sister is no longer in the world with the living. The part of your soul that she had held on to till that day was merely returning to its rightfull owner." Kagome gasped 'Who could have killed her' she wondered. She turned to the old lady "I am sorry you lost your sister again." She put a hand on her mentor's shoulder. "Tis alright child, she did not belong here and she was no longer the sister I remembered, you need not worry." Kagome nodded and went back to helping with the garden. "Thank you, Kaede, I was worried something was wrong with me." The old miko simply smiled and continued with her work.

He sniffed at the air, he could smell her, he knew her scent by heart. He sniffed at the air again and found that his half brother had gone in a diffrent direction than Kaogme had. Not smelling any blood in the air he knew that she was alright but he still quickened his pace. He wanted to see her, to explain to her that what had happened was not was she had thought. He could see the town ahead and he couldn't wait to see her, he wanted to see her smile. It always made him happy when she smiled.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
Kaed e and Kagome had finished pulling the weeds from the garden and had returned to the hut by the time Inu Yasha had gotten there. Everyone turned as the door flew open, she had just enough time to yell sit before the red streak that was Inu Yasha had reached her. "Oi, what was that for wench?" his voice came from the ground where his face had landed. Sango was now in the far corner of the hut, her face was full of anger and a little of fear, her hand resting on the Hiraikotsu. Shippo stuck his head out from his hiding place under Kagome's hair and watched Inu Yasha closely. "I can't believe you hurt Shippo!" Kagome screamed. "And you have the audacity to ask why I did that." She was livid now 'the nerve, I aught to...' She growled as best as her humen vocal cords would let her then she let out a stream of 'sits'. "Sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit SIT!" Everyone had turned to Kagome, everyone but Inu Yasha whose face was burried in the hole he was making from all the sits. Shippo had jumped off her shoulder and ran to Sango, they were all scared, they had never seen her this angry before.
Kagome sighed and sat down with a plop after releasing the 'sits' on Inu Yasha. As much as she wanted to she just couldn't be angry with him anymore. Everyone in the room had calmed now, noticing the change in their friend's mood. The spell's effect was now wearing off and Inu Yasha was picking himself up off the ground. He kept his head lowered, his bangs covering his eyes "I am sorry, Shippo, that I hurt you. I never meant to, I just lost control." Shippo jumped out of Sango's lap and walked cautiously over to him. Seeing that he was not going to lash out at him the kit jumped into his lap and hugged him around his waist. "I understand, I deserved it, I shouldn't had pushed you like I did. You are the closest thing to a father I have had since my true father died." With that the kit broke down into tears.
Inu Yasha didn't know what to say or do, to say the least he was shocked at the kitsune's outburst. Slowly, he put his arms around the kit and hugged him back. When their embrace ended Inu Yasha turned to Sango and Miroku "I am sorry I lost control like I did, I shouldn't have. Thank you Sango for trying to comfort me and thank you Miroku for bringing me back to myself." They both nodded too stunned from his admittance and apology to say anything. Standing he went to Kagome and grabbed her hand "I need to talk with you, alone." She smiled weakly, got up and let herself be lead out the door by Inu Yasha.
They had walked till they got to the Goshin Boku where he let go of her hand. 'I remember the first time I saw him. He was pinned to this tree sleeping, or so I thought, he looked so peaceful.' She turned to him and took his hand, she was surprised when he didn't pull away. "Inu Yasha, Kikyou's gone, someone or something killed her. I am sorry, I know how much you love her." 'Always thinking of others before herself' he thought smiling. The smile faded from his lips, "I know, I am the one who killed her, but I will get to that. There is something I want to talk to you about." He gestured for her to take a seat before sitting himself. After she had sat down he began, "The day you left I was with Kikyou, of course you know that. I didn't know why I was there or what I was doing, it just felt right. Then I could feel you, smell you, and I came out of the daze I was in. I pushed Kikyou away to come after you, I knew that I shouldn't have been there with her. I saw you fall into to the well with Sesshoumaru and I tried franticly to get to you, but the well had shut itself off to me. I am sure you were told what happened after that." He paused and when she nodded he continued. "Kikyou came to me after they had left and I yelled at her, asking her why I did that with her. She told me that she had put me under a lust spell which caused me to pursue her the way I did. I became enraged, losing control over my youkai blood and I killed her. After that I was afraid to aproach the others, I knew that they would be scared of me because of what I had done. So I stayed out here and thought while I waited for you to return. I realized after thinking that I love you Kagome, you are my strength in battle, you make me whole. I would die if you were to leave me."
They sat in silence for a moment, Kagome was going over what he had said in her mind. She was also searching in her heart for the love that she had once had for him, but she only found the love you would give to friends or family. The love she did find was for Sesshoumaru, she knew that after seeing what she did that day her heart would be closed to him forever in that way. "I am sorry Inu Yasha, I just don't love you in that way anymore. We are still friends, but we can never be anymore than that. That day I saw you with Kikyou broke my heart and she took away the love I had for you. I have no intentions of breaking my promise to you, I will always be by your side. I would still like to be friends if you allow it."
He could feel his heart breaking, the pain was almost unbearable. Her words were still sinking in, and he could feel the tears come to his eyes. He knew he had lost the chance to be her mate forever, but he would glady take her friendship. He wasn't going to lose her completley and he was happy for this. "Yes, we can be friends, that would make me happy." He grabbed her and pulled her to him, hugging her as if he would lose her forever if he let go. Letting the tears come freely now, he layed his head on her shoulder and cried.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
He reached his home by dusk, as he pushed the door open a small figure rushed at him. Wrapping her arms around his leg she said "Sesshoumaru-sama, Rin is happy you are home! Rin picked flowers for you when you were gone." She released her hold on his leg and held up the flowers for him to see. "Stupid human, Sesshoumaru does not want those ugly things." Jaken was now standing behind the little girl, "Sesshoumaru, my Lord, I am glad to see you have returned." When he looked up at his lord he cowered in fear from the look he was giving him.
Sesshoumaru looked down at Rin, patted her on the head, "Rin, I need some more flowers for my room. Put these in the dinning room." "Hai!" After she got out of hearing range he turned to Jaken "Go, and don't let her out of your sites. If you fail me I will surely kill you." "Yess Sesshoumaru-sama" After watching him walk after Rin he turned and headed towards his room, he needed to think.
