I've updated yet again! Although I didn't get to post up the other two chapters yet! So, I hope you all enjoy this next chapter and I'm going to let you carry on now! On with the fic!

"Sango?!" Kagome shouted. She has approached another friend.

"Kagome," Sango replied.

The next thing they knew, Sango had taken Kagome into her hutfor some tea. There, Kagome found Kohaku, Sango's younger brother who had also aged into an elder, and Kirara, who had lost some fur on some spots.

"Sango, what are you doing here? Shippou told me that you guys have been searching for me. I met him on the way here," Kagome explained.

"I was, until I gave up," Sango replied in a hoarse, old woman's voice. "I gave up and came to live here, where I surprisingly found Kohaku at this village. So, I decided to stay here for the rest of my life. Now, it'll be over soon."

"But, why? Why didn't you get InuYasha to come and get me at my world?" Kagome questioned.

"Because we already did," Sango explained. "We told him to see if you're over there, but he told us that you weren't home. He went for several days and you still weren't there."

That's right, we went away for awhile too, Kagome thought.

"So, since we couldn't get ahold of you, we decided to give up our search for the last Shikon shard. Besides, it was only one left. Until we've somehow warped time and made us 50 years older. Now, I live peacefully here in this village with no more demons to come and hurt us. I've also retired my job as a demon slayer. There is no more use for it."

"What I still don't understand is that why did you give up? You'll never know until you've tried your hardest. Why didn't you get InuYasha to come more often?" Kagome asked, now getting furious.

"Please, calm down Kagome," Sango said softly. "It wasn't our fault. InuYasha was the quitter, not us."

InuYasha? InuYasha stopped looking for me? Kagome thought once more. "Wait, of all demons are extinct, does that mean that InuYasha has also been wiped out?"

"Who knows?" Sango replied. "InuYasha is also half human, but I'm pretty sure that his brother is dead."

"Sesshoumaru?" Kagome asked.

"Yes, so now that they're all gone, the only living demon in this world is Kirara, but I believe that she'll lose her form too. She has lived all my life and now, she has gone blind," Sango said as Kirara blindly leaped into her arms.

Kagome watched as she petted Kirara gently. The room stood silently for a few minutes. Then Kagome stood up and finished her tea.

"Well, thanks for the advice," Kagome said silently, as she walked out the door.

"Be careful, Kagome," Sango reminded. "If you need anything, just come back and visit us. I'll be happy to do whatever I can to help." But Kagome didn't answer. The villagers watched her leave the village silently. Kagome began to walk up the trail slowly.

There goes another chapter finished. I'll tell you all now that Kagome is going to meet up with all of her friends again, including InuYasha, but that'll have to wait. Next chapter coming up pretty soon, well, not really. I'm going on a vacation with my family to Mexico and I won't be back in a week. As soon as I get back, I'll continue updating the fanfic. I'll expect a lot of reviews when I get back! Chapter 4 will be, 'Miroku"!
