The Awaken
By FireDemon86
I don't own Inu-Yasha
After a wide range of question from Kagome's family and a bruised Miroku coming in and sitting down Inu-Yasha seemed content being with her family halfway through the questions however Kagome's grandfather stop asking things and seem to be very deep in thought no one except Kagome seem to notice. Miroku apologized for earlier and he and Inu-Yasha seemed to become friendly then out of the blue Shippo who had been quietly sitting on Kagome's lap and never taking his eyes off Inu-Yasha said.
" Inu-Yasha have we met before because I'm getting a really weird feeling about you."
Everyone just looked at him but he was being dead serious and Inu-Yasha saw this and gave some serious thought just then that voice came roaring back to Inu-Yasha,
< You have to try to remember him! He is…remember the fox child, >
Just then Inu-Yasha head flashed with images of him and Kagome and a small child perched on her shoulder he had a tail and fox feet but the face was the same. Inu-Yasha looked down at the child in front of him again the same brown hair smile nose and big eyes the ears seem to be the only difference between the two of them he shock his head tiring to shake that idea out of him.
< No the boy had a tail and was a demon this is a normal boy they can't be the same...>
< But they are trying to remember…>
< Shut-Up! Who asked you? >
" No sorry Shippo never saw you before."
Everyone except Shippo shrugged and returned to the conversation but as Inu-Yasha look down at the little one he look stared into his eye to see the unwavering sureness he had those eyes never showing doubt but, Inu-Yasha's were and he knew it.

(About an hour later)
Kagome's mother turn to Inu-Yasha and in a cheerful and inviting voice asked.
"Inu-Yasha would you stay for dinner there's plenty and we would love to keep talking to you."
He looked at the clock and then to each face around the table spending extra time on Kagome's impractical
" I hate to be a bother…"
" Don't be silly your welcome anytime."
" Well I guess."
" Good Now Kagome help me get the plates out."
Kagome rose from her seat then put Shippo down and followed her mother, Then Sota got up and took his books up to his room and then Kagome's Grandfather spoke up, "come on boys lets wash up for dinner."
The four of them got up and cross the hall to enter the down stairs bathroom. After washing they came back and sat down Kagome and her mother were already sitting there food and dishes on the table Sota join everyone a moment later and with that they sat down to eat after dinner Kagome went up to her room with Inu-Yasha close behind once he enter the room Kagome closed the door and began to speak.
" So what do you think of my family."
" There nice, with a family like them it's no wander your so sweet."
" Why thank you Inu-Yasha that's one of the nicest things I've ever heard."
She smiled at him and went to sit down at her desk; Inu-Yasha raised an eyebrow with a questions look.
" What are you doing?"
" My homework why,"
" Just wandering hey you have math,"
" Yea do you like math?"
" Yea if you want help or I could just do it for you,"
" No thanks I do my own homework but I might need your help. Oh and by the way when do you go back to school and where do you go to school."
" I'm home schooled ever since I moved in with my dad for some reason he hates public school."
" Oh that kind a cool,"
She open her books and began to do the homework that had been assigned then a hand came to her shoulder and then a second one began to rub, she smiled and he bent down to her ear. He began to whisper sweet words into her ears just then the door open and Shippo walked into the room Inu-Yasha instantly stop and stood up and drop his hand to his sides both of them turn to see the intruder. To look at Shippo at that moment you would think it was a different person his eyes were alive and seemed to glow, his hand that hung at his sides were shaking then in a few running step and jumped up into Inu-Yasha's arms. Inu-Yasha eyes widen in surprise as he look to Kagome for help Shippo starts to speak fast and through sobs that have now began.
" Inu-Yasha it's really you when I started have dreams and little voices that talked about my former life I though I was going crazy.... Then my mom died.... And I placed here and with Kagome I almost couldn't believe my eye it was the girl from my dreams really and truly her then when I saw.... You it was too unreal.... But it is it's you and know I probably sound crazy, but I remember you from before you were my friends and the ones who took care of me after my father died you were like a second father to me."
He looked up tears streaming down his face and all Inu-Yasha could do was look over to Kagome for help but both of the minds were deep in thought because someway somehow this all made sense and things were beginning to click into place then Kagome look up into Inu-Yasha's eyes as if seeing him for the first time. Kagome rose out of her seat to get a tissue for the boy as she walk toward her dresser where the tissue box sat she noticed a glowing come from inside her jewelry box Kagome walked closer and opened the box to see the jewel her great grandmother Kaede who died before she was ever born but had said it was to go to Kagome, it was glowing. She remembered she wore it the first time she gone to Inu-Yasha's house than as she picked it up it was like the outer blue shell of it broke away and there now was a glowing pink gem. She turns slightly to see Inu-Yasha looking at Shippo and Shippo eyes close tight tears still falling.
< What's going on Shippo's crying about a former life and it's strangely making scenes and I get the feeling it's making scenes to Inu-Yasha to so what dose that mean and what's up with this weird jewel. >
< Do you really want to know because once it starts I won't be able to stop it until you complete the work we started? >
< You again how is it you always show up at times like this? >
< Do you want to know? >
< Fine ignore me yes I want to know. >
Just then the jewel glowing intensified and the light surrounded everyone it was pink at first then became a blinding white that seemed to be lessening and Kagome could see. She look to see Inu-Yasha and Shippo lying on the floor seeming unconscious then a figure started walking toward Kagome the body was black against the white-light. As she got closer Kagome nearly jumped out of her skin. It was her and this copy or whatever came close she took Kagomes hand and began to speak.
" Hello dear I'm glad we finally meant face to face cause tiring to talk or convince someone is so much harder if your not."
" Who are you are you the voice that talks to me."
" Yes now we must begin because my time is short. I must ask you again do you want to know because once I start this you can't stop till it's finished."
" Yes I understand. Now what is going on?"
" 500 years ago I half demon lived and fell in love with a priestess but it was a doomed love. The two were trick into a hatred and lack of trust that would be there deaths or at less one of their deaths. Because of the trick the half demon stole the jewel of four souls to which the priestess was protector it had the power to grant any wish a person or monster might have, but if used for evil it would be tainted but used for good it would be purified and fade from existents. Priestess then used her power to seal the half demon to a tree where he slept for fifty years, where as the priestess died that day taking the jewel with her to the other side. 500 years later the priestess was reincarnated in us and through the dry well on this shrine traveled back to that world and freed that demon from his 50 years sleep. During a battle that followed that jewel to further prove we are the reincarnated priestess was ripped from our body by a demon, haven't you ever wondered how you got that star shaped scar on you lower stomach? Well shortly after that another demon comes after the jewel and well trying to get it back we broke it and it's shards were shattered. You and the half demon go after them and make friend and enemies one friend was a small kitsune demon who you took in after his father died, Shippo. Then there was a monk named Miroku and yes same one, soon he to will begin to awaken so don't worry over him. Then a demon hunter named Sango and once again don't worry, she will even have help to remember because her cat to joined our group Kirara. Now earlier I said about enemies they to will come again like Naraku and Kikyo along with obstacles and just annoyances like Koga. But do not worry the tries that bind you two together are strong even now."
" Hold it this is all nice it's confusing but nice but bonded who?"
" You and your half demon protector Inu-Yasha."
" BACK UP! Inu-Yasha my HALF DEMON PROTECTOR!"
" Yes even now he is realize this and his power is beginning to stir look."
She raise a hand and point while moving aside Kagome could see Inu-Yasha along with Shippo they were crouched down hands on there heads seemly oblivious to each other or Kagome.
" What are you doing to them they look in pain!"
Kagome screamed which cause her other self to back up for moment in sheer surprise then Kagome looked closer and saw Shippo and Inu-Yasha's nails became longer more claw like then she notice there ears became pointer and Inu-Yasha raised slightly almost as if moving up his head. Both boy now had fangs and the last thing to change that Kagome could notice from the few times they open their eyes. There eyes became more animalistic then Kagome's attention was brought back to the other her, then in a calm voice that even surprised her she asked.
" What's happen to them, what are you doing to them and why?"
" They are regaining there power don't worry before it stared they were asked just as you they agreed they want the truth as much as you."
" O.K. So what happened 500 years ago and why don't I, Inu-Yasha, and Shippo remember and why are there two of me?"
" O.k. well you were in love with Inu-Yasha and he was in love with you but you never got the chance to tell him or him you. Because during a battle the one you have been remembering Inu-Yasha was nearly kill you saved him from that undead bitch but we were kidnapped by your all time enemy Naraku who tortured you. Inu-Yasha came to save you he had to give the demon your shards of the jewel to get you back so once the jewel was whole the demon used it but because it was not for good it just joined his body. Then the battle started you were too injured to help much but boring the battle the jewel was returned to you, purified it with what little power you had left then fell unconscious then the battle ended..."
" How did it end, how did I get back here and Inu-Yasha and Shippo?"
" They all died... It was the jewel that changed things though why I can't say."
" What do you mean changed things?"
" We died Kagome so did they but it stopped that it brought everyone except Kikyo back."
" But I know Kikyo came back we were talking about her she's and street trough whore that isn't content till everyone around her is unhappy."
" Kikyo's evil was passed onto another but not her soul that's still in you."
" So why can't I make a wish why does Inu-Yasha and Shippo have to change?"
"Because there is still evil that seek the jewel and until that evil has passed and you've finished the mission I started you can't make a wish or finish purifying the jewel."
" Why can I at lest do that?"
" Because to purify the jewel it take pure ands true love...the only way you merely did before and almost kill yourself try was because you took the way you felt towards Inu-Yasha and focused it. All that love pure and true was the only thing that came close to purifying the jewel."
She paused and looked a way then sadness darted across her face as she spoke and Kagome could feel the longing in her tone.
" I afraid my time has run out and I have to go don't worry I won't be gone long or far, for I'll always be with you."
