Broken Hearted

*Kagome's Thoughts*

The day ended as any other. They searched for Naraku and any clues they might find about his where about. There were a few leads that took them west. Whenever they headed west there is always a confrontation with Sesshomaru. I swear I have never seen brother or half brothers act like that youkai or not it is a disgrace to the family.

I myself have been riding my bike or walking lately not wanting to depend on Inuyasha for anything. Yea that is right I caught him again with Kikyou. They embraced each other in a passionate kiss. It broke my heart, but this is my fault for not making him choose. I mean we are not having sex or anything. We are not even officially going out. Nor have we even spoken about it. He has never told me his feelings. Out of all the time we have been together I got one kiss. A kiss mind you, I gave to save his human heart, so that does not count. I keep finding myself in bad situations; either violent ones or embarrassing ones. I mean come on give me some peace here! I should be at the mall ogling guys with my friends, but no I am stuck here fighting youkai. I mean some are extremely handsome even some of our enemies are great looking. Like Inuyasha's older brother is extremely good looking. Inuyasha would kill me if he knew I thought his half brother was good looking. 'hmm maybe next time he makes me mad about Kikyou I will tell him' she giggled at the thought of seeing his angry red face. 'He is such a baka sometimes maybe next time I see Koga I should let him kiss me and see how he likes it. Ahh I am so evil sometimes. That would piss him off just as much as me telling him his brother is cute. Ok maybe not just as much.' I realize the only thing I have left to do is get over my love for Inuyasha. There is no other way to go about it, I can not leave I have a responsibilities to hold on to.

*end of her thoughts*

I guess this story starts when Inuyasha disappeared from our camp without as much as a word. Food was cooked and ready I waited for him to return and when he didn't I went to look for him. I grabbed my bow and arrows and turned to speak "Sango I am going to look for Inuyasha." Sango gave me a look then said "be careful Kagome"

I nodded and smiled. Then walked into the forest I seen him enter. I walked for about 5 minutes when I started to hear voices. I ducked behind a tree to see who it was. That is when I seen Inuyasha declaring his love for Kikyou. The he took her in his arms and kissed her passionately. Mind you Kikyou must have known I was there by now because she said "Inuyasha what about my reincarnation? Don't you love her?"

He looked at her then tightened his embrace "No, I am in love with only you." then he kissed her again. I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces. I had to get away from there; Away from him. I turned and ran. I ran as fast as my legs would take me. I was trying to get back to the camp, but I could not think and must have taken the wrong turn. When I realized I was lost I began to get scared. 'I am alone in the forest...In the middle of the night... With only my bow and a few arrows for protection! What an idiot Kagome!' she spat at herself while crying nonstop.

Only a half mile away in a clearing was the camp of Sesshomaru and his small pack. He was resting against the tree with all his senses at their fullest. He smelled and heard someone crying he would have left them be if he did not realize who the scent belonged to. 'What is Inuyasha's wench doing in the forest alone?' he thought to himself while getting up to walk in the direction he smelled her.

Kagome's Miko powers started to go haywire meaning there is a demon nearby. She stopped in her tracks and readied her bow and got her arrow prepared. She scanned the area for the demon. Then she saw it, a white baboon pelt. "Naraku"

As Sesshomaru was entering the forest he smelled Naraku. He then began to run full speed ahead. 'Stupid girl is going to get herself killed by Naraku. Not while she on my lands she won't.' he thought to himself.

She pointed her arrow at the hanyou. "Is this another one of your puppets? Are you afraid to face a human? You are pathetic!" Naraku laughed an evil chilling laugh "No my little miko I am not afraid of a human. This is for protection how ever. We are in the western lands after all."

Sesshomaru came around a tree and saw the miko with her arrow pointed at the puppet. He heard what Naraku said 'Good he should be afraid of me, because I will be the one to kill him.' with that he began to walk out from behind the tree.

"Enough talking Naraku it is time to die!" she exclaimed while shooting the arrow at him.

He dodged her attack and send his tentacles at her grabbing her. Lifting her off the ground "I'll be taking those shards from you now. Do not worry I will put them to good use when I kill your friends."

Her eyes widened with shock and fear. "You should be afraid Miko because of your failure to keep your shards all those you hold dear will die."

Her face reddened with anger and she yelled at the top of her lungs "NO NARAKU YOU WILL DIE. NOW!" she closed her eyes and her body glowed pink purifying the tentacles that where attached to her. She dropped to the ground ungracefully.

She stood and reached for an arrow. A white flash stopped in front of her, she froze. Sesshomaru turned to her and said "Hide I will take care of this puppet."

She nodded and went behind a tree not wanting to disobey. "OH what do we have here? The great Lord Sesshomaru rescuing a human!? His brother's human no less. I guess the love of humans runs in the family, huh?" Naraku laughed.

"Enough of your vile voice half-breed die!" with that he jumped up with his unsheathed Toukijin and slashed the puppet in two.

Kagome was watching him from behind the tree. She had never really had the chance to watch him, I mean actually watch him move. 'He moves with grace and poise. It seems all his moves are calculated before he makes them; Unlike Inuyasha who runs in blind swinging every which way.'

She was knocked out of her thought when she heard his voice "Miko what are you doing here without the half-breed?"

"Um you see well, it like this." she was stumbling over her words. 'Great impression Kagome now he will think you're an idiot!

He lifted his eyebrow at her nonsense. "Its like what?" he asked with an impatient tone.

"Well I was at camp and I went to look for Inuyasha to tell him his food was ready. Then,,," she paused while looking at the ground "...then I saw something I probably shouldn't have. I got upset and ran. I tried to get back to the camp but I got lost. Then I saw Naraku and that is when you came."

He lifted his head to sniff, "He is no where near us now."

She felt her heart drop in her chest. She closed her eyes trying not to cry. He looked at her for a minute then turned around and began to walk back to his camp expecting her to follow. She saw him beginning to walk so she followed quietly behind him.

He glanced back out the corner of his eyes and noticed her following. "You can follow me until the whelp comes to get you.'

she looked up and his back "Thank you"

"Hm" was all he said in reply.

When they reached the clearing where he was camped, Rin was asleep next to Ah Un and so was Jaken. Sesshomaru walked over to the tree he previously occupied and sat down.

Kagome followed him to the tree and sat down besides him. "I know I said it already but I do want you to know I mean it when I said thank you." she said while she flashed him a smile.

"I did not save you Naraku was there so I killed his puppet nothing more." he replied.

Her smile faded some. "Well that's all fine but thanks anyway. And thank you from saving me from Mukotsu from the band of seven. If you didn't show up when you did I would probably be dead. So thank you."

He looked at her trying to find any amount of insincerity when not finding any he nodded in acceptance.

She smiled at him again before looking in her lap.

He closed his eyes again.

She looked up at him 'He is an extraordinary creature youkai or not. He looks like he should have been carved of marble.' She looked at his face following the two strips on his left and right cheek, the crescent moon in the center of his forehead and the maroon color right above his eyes.

He could feel her looking at him even though his eyes are closed "Is there something you wish to inquire of me Miko?" he asks while his eyes are still closed.

"Sorry I didn't mean to stare. Its just... I have never seen you up close before and usually it's a good thing. But I am happy I got the chance to meet you when you aren't trying to kill me." she said with a nervous giggle.

He would have smiled or laughed if he wasn't Sesshomaru but all she got was his normal reply of "Hm"

She waited a few more moments then spoke again it was a stupid question but the silence was unnerving. "How do you keep your cloths so white? I mean you're sitting on the ground but every time I see you...?" she paused for a second causing him to open his eyes in curiosity of what she will say next. "Every time I see you you're so clean. You never look like you spend nights outdoors."

"Is that what you want you really wanted to ask me Miko?" his face was the normal unemotional mask but his eyes showed amusement. She nodded.

"I am the Lord of the Western Lands I cannot look anything less than that, no matter where I am." he looked at her to make sure she is listening. "Since you asked me a clothing question now it is my turn."

She nodded in agreement; she knew what his question was going to be.

"Why do you wear.." he paused for a moment, "inappropriate clothes that fit the station of a whore when you are not one?"

She knew that was the question and she could not help but get offended. She answered all the same, "Well in my time this is not inappropriate. This is what all the people my age wear. Where I come from this is far from the clothing a whore would wear. Whores where I come from wear see through shirts and skirts that show the bottom of their asses. Or shirts that just cover their.." she paused and blushed a deep shed of red.

He lifted his eyebrow at her embarrassment but stood quietly for her to continue.

"The shirts they wear just cover their nipples (she looks down not wanting to look in his face) and some of the skirts are see through. Whores where I am from leave nothing to the imagination. Men like to look at the goods before they buy them." she finished to lookup at him.

"I would like to visit this home of yours sometime."

She gasped and said "Well it is kind of hard to explain but I am not from this time. I mean area." her heartbeat sped up rapidly.

'Time? She said time twice when referring to her home. What could that mean? Does it have something to do with that well she disappears into?' "Miko does you getting home have something to do with that well you disappear into?"

Kagome's mouth opened and flapped around like a fish out of water. Right then he knew he was right, that is how she gets home.

"H- How did you know?" she asked nervously.

"I make it my point to find out all I can about my enemies. So that is how you get home."

"Yes it is a portal to my era."

"Your era? What does that mean?"

She relaxed a little and then said, "I live in the" she cleared her throat "future." she had a short pause then continued "500 years to be exact."

He opened his eyes again to look at her "You are from the future?" he asked unable to hold back his smirk.

"I know you probably think I am crazy but it is true. There is only one other person from this era able to enter it. And he has seen my era already. People no longer fight with swords. There are other more efficient ways to destroy an enemy. Weapons from my time are extremely dangerous they can destroy a whole country with a single press of a button. You do not need to be near an enemy to kill them. There are machines that humans use to fly and drive places far away. Buildings are taller then the tallest trees. There is a huge lack of forest where I come from. The skies are filled with pollution, which is a gas that can kill you and smells really bad. A full youkai with a sensitive nose would not be able to handle it. Even that jerk has a hard time with his nose while he is there so I could only imagine it would be worse on you."

He was listening to her speak taking in all she says. One thing got to him though if she is in fact from the future how is it that she knows nothing of youkai?

"How is it you knew nothing of youkai when you arrived here?"

She looked down in her lap with a sad face and a frown where her smile used to be. "You see I have never seen youkai before I came to this era. In my time youkai are just myth and legends; nothing more than a scary story to keep kids in line. But do not get me wrong, 500 years is a lot of time youkai probably just learned new magic that allows them to hide their youki aura and marks. So there could be plenty out there I just never seen them before."

He was a bit disturbed about hearing there are no youkai her time 'what happens to my kind in the next 500 years?'

She looked at the unnamed emotions running across his eyes then she added, "Well like I said before there could be magic that hides your youki and markings. But I will tell you what; If you promise not to kill me I will look for you in 500 years when I go home. If I find you I will let you know. Just remember not to kill me. I will look up your name in this thing called the internet, if there is any info about you I will find it there. But mind you, you may be going by a different name in my time. And it is not like I can march up to your home and knock on your door." she said with a slight giggle.

He was still looking at her "And why can't you? You don't strike me as the frightened type."

She huffed at his comment and replied "I am not scared I just don't know where you live is all! And I have yet to see any palaces in my time, which could mean it is no longer there or you have enchantments designed to hide it."

"Hm" was his reply. "How is it that you are able to go into the well?" he asked.

"I think it has to do with the Jewel of Four Souls. I was born with it inside my body. I got here because a centipede youkai came out the well and dragged me in. That's how I met Inuyasha he was pinned to a tree. When the youkai was trying to kill me I set him free. He killed the her then tried to kill me for the Shikon No Tama. This is when Kaede put the necklace around him. So he can be near but have no chance of stealing the Shikon No Tama; he wanted to become a full youkai. Then a crow got a hold of the Shikon No Tama and when I fired an arrow at it to stop it the Shikon No Tama shattered. It is my entire fault that Naraku has the Shikon No Tama. I did not know it was in my body until the centipede bit it out of me. And I did not know what it did either. In my time there is not much info about the Shikon No Tama. Just that it shattered and was put back together then destroyed. There is nothing about Naraku, nothing about other youkai, nothing about who put it back together and nothing about the one who broke it. I am happy about part. I don't have to read about how much of a clumsy chick I am." she said with a light laugh.

"Chick? Why would you use that word to describe yourself?" he asked curiously.

"Oh um. It is a term used to describe the female gender. It is less colorful then wench or bitch or cunt; which are vulgar terms used to describe women."

"Cunt?"

She turned red.

He lifted and eyebrow, "What is the true meaning of Cunt?" he asked curiously.

She turned even redder. "um... Well... arg... ok that is not something I feel comfortable about explaining to you." she replied looking into her lap.

He looked at her, amusement clearly in his eyes. "This Sesshomaru has asked you a question."

She turned even redder. "The true meaning of cunt is the female organ. Simpler put a pussy... That word is also a vulgar way to described a weak male in my era. It is the ultimate diss to a male. And Dick, or Dickhead and also asshole is used to describe a male jerk." she finished with her blush still clear across her cheeks.

"Your era is well versed in vulgar terms." it was more like a statement then a question but she nodded in agreement. "Your time does seem indeed interesting." he replied.

"There is something else that will not be figured out for another few hundred years." she said while looking at him. He looked at her and told her to continue with his eyes. "Well now it is believed that he earth is flat, but it is not, it is round. And there are other countries that are yet to be formed other then the main lands that is."

"That is indeed interesting." he said while staring at the sky.

"Oh ya! I almost forgot, you are a star gazer." he looked at her for an explanation. "In my era we have traveled to the moon." his eyes widened with shock. 'How can humans make it to the moon?' he decided to ask "how is it that humans can travel to the moon when youkai can not?"

She smile a huge smile "We have these things called rockets and they take people out of the earth's atmosphere. There is no air up there so people have to wear special suits to breath. There are many planets in our universe. But we have yet to go to them because it would take years to get there. But we have sent machines to take pictures and get soil samples of the ground."

"That is interesting that mortals can design these machines."

"It takes years and years to make them, along with tons and tons of money." she replied. "Also the stars are burning gas balls in the sky. The stars you see now have probably already died down because they are light years away; Meaning billions and billions of miles away. If you had a telescope in certain times of the year you could see the planet Mars. You could see it with out a telescope but it will look like a different colored star."

"I would like to know what a telescope is and when we could see this other planet."

She smiled and said "well a telescope is like a... how do I explain it? Ah it makes far away things you're looking at look bigger and closer then they actually are. I would have to go home to find out when the next time mars will be seen."

He nodded his understanding then she said "It is really nice to have an intelligent conversation with someone. When I tried to tell that jerk about rockets he was more interested in Ramon then space travel. It is really quite something. He does not understand that I have to go home a lot so I can go to school and learn things like Math, Science, Social Studies, Literature, Biology, Chemistry, and World History. We are forced to go to school until we are 16 but you graduate at 17. Needless to say I have not been able to go very often because he keeps me here as his personal jewel detector. Because he is a baka he expects everyone else to be that stupid."

Sesshomaru could have laughed hearing her talk about his half-breed half brother that way. Instead he replied "He must have done something really bad for you to talk about him like that."

Her smile faded once again as she recalled what she saw. "I should not be so mad about it because I kind of already knew, but I saw him with Kikyou and he was declaring his love to her. And embracing her and kissing her. Then she asked him what about me, and he said that he doesn't love me he loves her and I ran away. He doesn't know I heard him; I couldn't interrupt what I saw. I had half a mind to show him how it felt so see the one you care about in a passionate kiss with someone you dislike. It is not like me to think that way I usually just go home but I got lost. Then you saved me. I know I should probably leave the group and join another that looks for the Shikon No Tama. Like Koga or something but I won't because, well Koga has a thing for me but I don't feel the same and he will not listen to reason. I don't know why people want to use me. They both want me because I can sense and see the Shikon No Tama." she said with a fake smile looking at him.

He had a disgusted look on his face. 'That half breed picked a dead one over the living one? He just keeps making a bad name for our family' he thought.

"Well you are an intelligent woman I believe you will make the best decision for yourself"

She looked at him dumbfounded 'did he just complement me? I must have been hearing it wrong.' she thought, she replied all the same "You are probably right."

"I always am" he replied with a smirk.

She smiled back.

"You should go to sleep I do not want to be blamed for your lack of rest." he stated.

She nodded in agreement. "Do you mind if I sleep here?" she asked.

"Do as you please." was his answer.

She nodded and lay against the tree and fell asleep shortly after.
