Seventeen-year old Kagome hummed quietly to herself as she made her way up the stairs that led to her home, raven hair gleamed in the bright sunlight and blue eyes sparkled cheerfully. When she reached the top she was quit proud to see that she was not even out of breath yet, years spent traveling in the past through all kind of weather has made sure that she was always in prime condition.

Even after her traveling days were over she always made sure she kept herself in full physically condition. After completing her task of finding the jewel shards and defeating Naruka she was sent back to her own time with out even a chance to say goodbye, she missed her friends who over the years became like a second family to her but she also new they wouldn't have wanted her to mourn them.

Feeling happier Kagome quickened her pace and than stop short, in the distance, leaning against her house was a boy, from what she could make out he had on a baggy jumper with a hood that covered his face but it was the stance he was in that tickled her memory of her long forgotten past.

Kagome brows narrowed in concentration, she knew she seen this boy before…but where? The boy moved his head causing the hood to fall off displaying a head of orange hair…orange hair?! There was only one person she knew who had orange hair, but it couldn't be, could it...?

"Kyo…" she breathed, barely believing her own eyes as hoped swelled within her,

she dropped her school bag and took a few uncertain steps toward the boy. Truly not believing what she was seeing, the boy in question lifted his head and looked straight at her and answered the question for her, for the first time in nearly seven years the familiar crimson eyes stared back at her.

Kyo walked towards her and stopped a few meters in front of her, his crimson eyes where filled with uncertainty even if he was sprouting his usual cocky grin.

"Hi Kags, long time no see, huh?"

Kagome stared at him for a few seconds taking in the changes before breaking out into a huge grin and practically throwing herself into his arms, "Oh Kyo", she whispered in his shoulder, "its been so long"

Kyo chuckled, he wrapped his arms around his long time friend, "Yes, it has been awhile hasn't it?"

Still laughing in delight, Kagome pulled back and if it was possible her smile widened.

"I didn't think I'd see you ever again, what are you doing here anyway?"

Kyo pouted, "You almost make it sound like you don't want me here?" he whined cutely.

Kagome slapped him playfully on the shoulder, "You know I didn't mean it like that, idiot"

Kyo just smirked before his face turned serious, "I missed you, I didn't even get to say goodbye before you left".

Kagome bit her lip, "I know and I'm sorry, but after what happened, I just couldn't…"

Kyo nodded, "I understand completely, you don't have to apologies for anything, in fact it should be me apologizing"

Kagome looked at him in confusion, 'what are you talking about, there was nothing you could have done to prevent it, you know that"

"I once promised you I'd protect you and I failed" Kyo's hand made a fist as he looked at her giving her a weak grin "Not much of a protector am I?"

Kagome opened her mouth but she couldn't found the words to say so instead she just wrapped him up in her arms, "you were 10, their was nothing you could have done"

Kyo pulled away from her eyes flashing in anger, "That's no excuse!"

Kagome smiled softly and touched him arm, "Kyo, what's in the past is past, the only thing I can do now is move on, which I have, I got wonderful friends, a loving family and a fulfilling life"

"But still, I…" Kyo was about to start ranting again when Kagome's soft voice interrupted him, "Let not drawl of the past, okay...?"

Kyo looked in her blue eyes and nodded, which gained him a thankful smile. But he could see it, even if she denied it herself, she was still hurting perhaps not from the physical scars but most certainty from the mental ones, and he swore that he would do everything in his power to keep her safe.

"Oi, Kyo-Kyo!" a voice yelled, Kagome and Kyo looked up startled which broke the tension in the air, they looked over to the house where a black haired man was walking towards them wearing a business suit.

For the 5th time that day Kagome eyes lit up at the familiar figure and with a squeal of delight went bouncing towards the voice, she could hear Kyo grumblings in the background about 'stupid perverted old men' and 'don't call me that stupid name you dumb dog'. Kagome could almost imagine the scowl he must be wearing, she met the black haired man half way and engulf him in a warm embrace.

"Kyo-Kyo don't call me old" Shigure whined as he nuzzled the top of Kagome's head, all the while glancing at Kyo who with a scorn look came up to them.

"Oh, Shigure, it so good to see you!" Kagome exclaimed, firing off hundreds of questions at once.

Shigure Sohma smiled, "Its good to see you as well, it's been awhile" He said kissing her on the forehead like he did when she was younger.

Kagome nodded, reaching up to wipe her black bangs from her eyes, "What are you guys doing here, how did you even know where I lived?"

"That would be me" a weary voice stated.

Kagome pulled back from Shigure and frowned as her mum, "mum, is that my bag?"

Kagome asked instantly spotting the bag he had in her hands.

Her mother sighed and Kagome could clearly see the bags under her eyes, "Mum, are you okay...?"

Her mother rubbed her eyes and turned her gaze to her only daughter, "I want you to go stay with Shigure for a bit…he was sighted prowling streets around here"

Kagome felt her mind freeze, almost on instinct Kyo reached out out and wrapped his arms around Kagome shaking form, she was thankful for the support, she didn't think her legs would have been able to hold her, "What, that's impossible! He's in jail! How did he escape?!"

"I don't know dear", her mother replied putting her hand to her forehead, I've called the police and they are doing everything they can but until than I've asked Shigure to take you in, you will be enrolled in Kyo's school Kaibara I believe and stay at there house until he is caught"

Kagome nodded slowly, trying to progress all this information, "You want me to live with the Sohma's?"

Her mother gave a nod.

Kagome learnt more into Kyo's embrace, "this is to soon, I haven't got to say goodbye to anyone, Souta, gramps…"

"They will understand, I'm not chancing fate, I almost lost you the first time and I'm not going to lose you the second time!".
