Chapter 10: A Silent Apology.

After a few days of brooding Inuyasha thought it was time they went and looked for Kagome so he could at lest try and make it up to her. Some how.

They had heard about a shard rumor to the west of Kaede's village. They figured it was the best place to start. Knowing Naraku had Kagome maybe he would be there to get the shard as well and maybe Kagome would be with him. Or at lest they could fallow him back to his castle and rescue her.

They had set out early in the morning and cover a good distance by early evening with Inuyasha running and holding Shippo while Sango and Miroku rode on Kirara. Half satisfied with how far they had gotten Inuyasha decided to take a brake, using the excuse they Kirara might be getting tired caring the two human. When actually he wanted to stop and collect his thought on what to do next. With out Kagome to senesce the shards they really had no idea how far they still had left to go or even if they were really going in the right direction.

He just knew that they all need a good rest and he needed to think.

As the others set up camp, Inuyasha set himself up in a near by tree.

Lonely. That's how he felt.

Yes he had Sango, Miroku, Kirara, and even Shippo, but it wasn't the sam. Something was still missing. Something really big.

He knew what it was, but he still hated to admit he had a weakness and that weakness was Kagome.

Where are you Kagome? He asked to the sky as he sat in his normal position in a tree looking to the sky with that far off look. Usually when he got that look Kagome would look at him with that look that clearly asked 'what are you thinking?' . But she never asked it aloud. Maybe it was because she knew that he already knew her question and if he wanted to answer it he would.

Inuyasha closed his eyes and debated whether or not to look down. He hoped that if he did he would see Kagome down there with that questioning look on her face.

If she is down there, I won't hesitate this time, I won't give her some excuse or call her some name to get her off my back. I will tell her every thing. I will tell her that when I am up here thinking I am usually thinking of her and the only reason I don't look down is cause I know she would be able to see it clearly on my face. I would tell her that I am sorry for all the pain I have caused her. That I will never do it again, that I will stay by her side no matter who or what my cross our path. Kagome.... I would tell you how much I need you. And how much it hurts when you not around me. Kagome....

Inuyasha lowered his head he hoped beyond all hope that if he opened his eyes and looked down he would see her. But he knew he wouldn't. But just to make sure he slowly opened his eyes. For a split second he had a little hope, but it was soon shattered.

When he looked down he seen Kagome's sleeping blanket laid out. He started for a moment. Then he started to growl realized Shippo was laying on it, the growl just got louder and louder. Inuayasha jumped down.
"What the hell do you think you are doing." Inuyasha yelled.

Shippo scrunched up onto a ball under the sleeping blanket and peeked his head out. "I.. I was only getting it... it ready for her encase she... she came back," Shippo answered in between sobs.

Inuyasha stared at the kitsune for a moment before realizing that he was not the only one that missed Kagome. They all did. He just had to blind to see it and knowing the way was he had probable made it seem like he was the only one that missed her.

But here in front of him was the small fox demon that looked at Kagome was if she was his mother. That loved her endlessly and always showed it, unlike Inuyasha. Shippo was the one who was always there to try and make Kagome feel better after Inuyasha would say something mean or run off with Kikyou or just do something that was just so Inuyasha and it would end up hurting her.

Inuyasha looked down at Shippo and sighed all anger leaving him now and the sadness returned.

"Oi squirt is there room in there for me. We both can keep it warm so its ready for when she comes" Inuyasha asked quietly. He too had the same hopes as Shippo, that Kagome would come walking out of the woods as though she was just coming from taking a bath.

Shippo stopped crying and looked up to Inuyasha with a small smile on his face, "there is always room for you Inuyasha."

Inuyasha laid down and raped a arm around Shippo and pulled him close like Kagome use to do.

"oh and Shippo."

"yeah?"

"Anyone hears about this and your dead." Shippo's smile only grew bigger as did Inuyasha's as they both fell into a soft sleep, both keeping their senses open just encase Kagome was to return.
