We are after the jewel shards once again and to defeat the monstrous half- demon Naraku. It's already been a year since I fell down thee well and released Inuyasha from the Sacred Tree. During our journey we meet wonderful people. Shippo, an orphan fox demon, Miroku, a lecherous monk with a wind tunnel in his right palm from Naraku, Sango, a demon slayer that had her village killed and brother taken away by Naraku, and then there's Kirara, Sango's neko companion. Now there's Inuyasha, a half demon who was pinned to a tree by his lover Kikyo. Naraku tricked them into thinking they betrayed one another. After Kikyo sealed Inuyasha to the tree, she died a few minutes later and had the jewel burned with her body. Then there is me, Kagome. I'm an average 15 year old teenager, YEAH RIGHT! I'm the person who started this journey by breaking the Shikon no Tama in the first place. Because of me we have to kill demons for the shards. Because of me I met my best friends and the guy I love.

"Hey wench, hurry your ass up. You're slowing us down! "

"Okay okay I'm coming. " I started running only to stop half way.

"Hurry up god damn it! We don't have all day Kagome! "

I completely ignored him and closed my eyes and spread out my aura to locate where the jewel shard, that I'm sensing, is. My powers have grown over the year, and now I can create barriers, find auras, and shoot from long distances. Not much but still, it's enough for me to feel that I can protect myself without protection from other people. Inuyasha on the other hand still thinks I'm a pathetic human and needs protection 24/7. One day I'm going to show him that I can protect myself. Ah ha, I finally found the demon's aura that has the shard. I only sense one shard and the demon is fairly weak. I take out an arrow and put it on the bow. I wait a few seconds to steady the bow. I shoot. I open my eyes to see the arrow fly into the woods. A scream was heard and Inuyasha went running in the direction of the scream. We ran after him and finally caught up to him to see a huge bear demon with my arrow in him. It started to get up and Sango took out Hiraikotsu while Inuyasha took out his Tetsusaiga. "HIRAIKOTSU!" was heard from Sango. The large boomerang flew to the demon and sliced of one of its legs off. Once the demon was on the ground Inuyasha did the final attack. "WIND SCAR!" The attack hit the bear demon head on and was now laying motionless on the ground. I made my way over to the demon and took out the shard and fused it with the others. A white light came over me and I could feel power come into me. Then it was over. I thought it was weird but then I pushed it aside. I look at the jewel to see it a quarter of the way done. Hmm Naraku has most of the jewel shards and Koga has two of his own. I wonder if there is any other demon who has a jewel shards.

"Great job Lady Kagome in finding the shard." Said Miroku

"Yeah, good job Kagome." Sango chimed in.

"Feh. She wasn't that great."

"SIT BOY"

THUMP

"How dare you say that, I found this demon that had the shard. If not for me you would of past him!" I yelled at Inuyasha. I walked over to a tree and sat down. When the spell wore off, Inuyasha got up murmuring something about the wench's time of the month and how she's being a bitch.

"We might as well camp here tonight since it's beginning to be night fall." Miroku stated-matter-of-factly.

"I agree with you Miroku." Sango said.

"Keh. Fine."

Inuyasha jumped into a tree and sat down looking at the group make camp. Miroku and Shippo went to get fire wood while Sango arranged were Miroku and she was going to sleep. Inuyasha looked over at Kagome to see her laying out her sleeping bag and then look through her bag. She took out 7 cups of ramen, 3 for Inuyasha and 1 for the rest of the group. When Miroku and Shippo came back with the wood, Kagome stared the fire and Sango went to get the water. When the food was ready Inuyasha came down and ate the ramen like no tomorrow. Kagome was in her own little world when she started to look through her bag and took out her calendar. She looked at it and then through it back into her bag.

"SHIT!"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and glazed over at her with surprise. Kagome remember she said it out loud and cupped her hands over her mouth. She looked up laughing nervously.

"Sorry guys just remembered my birthday is in two days. Having fun shard hunting makes you forget things. HEHE." Everyone was still looking at her like she was crazy and I was getting on her nerves. She couldn't take it anymore.

"Guys… Guys… GUYS STOP LOOKING AT ME THAT WAY! Screw it. I'm going for a walk." Kagome got up and walked away from the still stunned group. Sango was the first to get out of the daze.

"Did she just cuss?"

"I think she did," Miroku looked up at Inuyasha and laughed "Inuyasha I think you're rubbing off on Kagome."

"Give me a break monk." With that said Inuyasha jumped down from the tree and ran in the direction he last saw Kagome. He stopped at a river to see Kagome sitting on a rock looking at the night sky. The moon was beaming down on her hair to make it look like pure silk and her eyes glowed beautifully. Inuyasha looked Kagome up and down at her glowing skin and then stopped at her lips. 'I wonder if I'll ever get to feel those lips against mine or feel those legs under me? WAIT A MINUTE, WHY AM I GETTING THESE THOUGHTS?' Inuyasha thought it over and over until he finally got it. He totally forgot about it. 'Matting Season. Shit I have to get Kagome out of here. She's going to be in danger.' Inuyasha jumped behind Kagome and picked her up bridal style. He heard a gasp from her and then saw her look up at him.

"INUYASHA! PUT ME DOWN"

"Shut up bitch. I'll put you down when we get back to camp and then tomorrow we are going back to the village for you to go back to your time." It was silent for a few seconds until Inuyasha heard Kagome whisper thank you. During the trip back to the camp Inuyasha kept looking at Kagome. 'Man, she's gorgeous. STOP THINKING ABOUT KAGOME YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH KIKYO!'

We came back to the camp to see Miroku with a few bumps on his head and a big read smack mark on his face. I shook my head wondering when will he ever learn to stop groping Sango. Inuyasha drops me on my sleeping bag and jumps into the tree. I get in and automatically pull Shippo closer to me. I laid on my back and looked up at the stars. I was thinking how Inuyasha was acting strange during the little trip back to camp. 'He kept on looking at me strangely and then looks up ahead shaking his head. And now he wants me to go back to my time, He never lets me go back to my time. I usually have to sit him a bunch of times. Sometime he can get really strange.' With that said Kagome went into a dreamless sleep.
