Huntress

By: Yami Katachi

Chapter 1: Memories Forgotten.

Kagomes hard footsteps echoed down the schools hallway as she turned the corner, hoping she'd get to her last class on time. The bell rang and her hopes were crushed as she tripped over her own feet, almost hitting the ground. It took her a few minutes to realize that she hadn't hit the ground and was being held up by strong-clawed hands.

'CLAWED!' her head screamed at her. She looked again but the claws were gone. (A/N: this means 'thoughts' O.K., so don't get confused!)

The guy that caught her helped her to her feet. She kept her head down as she muttered her apologies, trying to hide her blush. She looked up at him when he started to laugh at her making her blush deepen. Kagome's jaw set, her mind running free with insults. 'Why did I even come today!' She glared at the dark haired, purple-eyed handsome man. For a second she forgot she was mad at him. Then he opened his mouth. "I need to talk to you, before your transformation!" Kagome rolled her eyes 'I'm just going to sign out and go home.' She stared straight into his eyes that momentarily turned golden. Her insides froze and her eyes widened when his eyes turned back to normal. 'Maybe I should listen. What he has to say can't be to crazy compared to what I could say about what I do! Going back and forth in time.' She sighed and started walking toward the office to sign out.

Today was her last day; she really didn't need to be here. She had already received her diploma. "Do you have a car?" The man walking beside her nodded and she continued. "Meet me at the front doors in ten minuets. I'll be there!" She signed out in the school office and waited at the front of the school for the crazy guy, just thinking about the feudal era.

'Since Kikyou joined the group, Inuyasha has become more violent then he had been before. Do you think this dude I'm meeting is him?' She shuddered thinking back to the time Inuyasha had last seen her. 'I really hope not! Then who else has golden eyes and claws?' Her head ran free of her hold once again as his car appeared in front of her. 'Nice mustang! Silver! I was saving up to get one until I fell in the well.' She stared for a while.

"Well are you coming?" He asked as he opened her car door and closed it behind her running to the other side of the car as kids piled out of the building behind him.

"Alright...what transformation?" Kagome asked in her bored tone she had picked up earlier that year when... 'Don't think of such things! You know what it does to you!' She was saved from her memories as he replied to her answer, forcing herself to give him her attention.

"Well, first where do you live so I can drive you there and I'll tell you then, where we can be alone!" The first thought that came to Kagome's mind was not pleasant. 'GREAT!!!!! A rapist? Murderer? Kidnapper? Killer? Which is it?' She sighed. "Lets go to the park instead, I don't want to go home yet." She looked the man in the eye's realizing that she had no idea his name. "What is your name?" He smiled at her successfully avoiding the question.

"Kagome, if I tell you the truth will you trust me? Or will you assume I'm here to hurt you?" She sighed and sat back in her seat. Who said she could handle this. Whoever made that accusation was going to die by her own hand. Silently crying just letting all her emotions run free. Memories flooded her head in a flash! White lights surrounding her as images started to slow and make sense.

~Flash back/Memories~

Two babies were in a crib, one with silver hair and gold eyes with markings on both his cheeks and a fluffy tail and herself as a baby with light blue eyes and claws with a black bat on her forehead. A females voice sounded behind her, two women were talking. "Kagome is just the cutest little thing I have ever laid eyes on!" The dark haired baby wined at the sound of her name. "Well Sesshoumaru is a spitting image of his father!" They laughed as one of Sesshoumaru's eyes peeked from his nap. "They will fall in love in the future!" The other replied. "I couldn't find a better suitor for my daughter!"

~Blacked out, then images appeared again. ~

A smaller Kagome sat up in bed fast and squealed out cries silently. She pulled the covers farther around herself crying. A guy's voice sounded from the other side of the large room. "Kagome, you can sleep next to me! Maybe all your bad dreams will stop!" Kagome nodded and got out of the bed she was sleeping in, holding a bear. She slid in next to him under the blankets. She sighed and cuddled against him. "Do you know what causes you to see the future?" The little girl next to Sesshoumaru shook her head. "Tomorrow, I'll go to the library with you and maybe we can find something!" He cuddled against her and they fell asleep in each other's arms.

~Blacked out, then images appeared again. ~

A boy she knew as Inuyasha, another she knew as Sesshoumaru, one she didn't know, a boy with white hair and a bat on his forehead like her and her younger self were playing in the garden together. That's when she noticed something about everyone there, they weren't human! She was startled out of her thoughts as demons came from nowhere and surrounded the kids playing tag in the garden. Everyone there ran from them but they where to slow. Two older males came both looking like the older boys there. The littler her screamed "Sesshoumaru!" as a demon grabbed her off the ground and Sesshoumaru came to her rescue!

~Blacked out, then images appeared again. ~

"I don't want you to leave!" Said a boy from in his father's arms that looked just like each other only one being older than the other. The little Kagome started to cry and struggle in her fathers arms. "Sesshoumaru!" She half wined half screamed. "Sesshoumaru!" She didn't know if her father let her go, or if she escaped but either way she ended up in Sesshoumaru's arms as he jumped from his fathers grasp. "Never forget me!" Sesshoumaru whispered in her ear as their father's tore them from each other's grip. Kagome nodded, tears once again streaming from her eyes as she was taken away from her Sesshoumaru.

~Blacked out, then images appeared again. ~

A tall man with mahogany eyes and white hair flowing down his back was holding a ten-year-old Kagome in his arms. "Don't forget what I told you! Please come back when you feel you're ready! Don't forget that I love you!" Tears welled up in his eyes as the pair cried together in each other's arms. " This is for your own protection!" He half whined, Kagome nodded as her father put her down on the hard wooden floor. "The future is the only safe place for you now. Your older brother will take the throne when he's old enough." The man sighed and stared right into her soul. "I know this might be asking to much, but could you say something other than Sesshoumaru?" The little girl fell to her knees and started to cry. Her father jumped into the well. With one last look at the little girl he was gone. Kagome jumped to her feet and ran to the well murmuring something. It got louder and louder until she reached the well where she was screaming it. "I LOVE YOU...COME BACK!"

~ End of the Flash back/Memories~

Kagome's eyes shot open, a name escaping her lips. "Sesshoumaru!" She started shaking. "Yes?" A males voice sounded from beside her. Her eyes grew wide and she shuddered. "Were those...memories...or something else?" She was shaking causing her words to quiver. Sesshoumaru smiled at her. "Those my dear Kagome, were your lost memories." Kagome's head fell and she started to cry. "I'm sorry, I didn't remember...when I promised that I would!" Sesshoumaru placed his hand on top of her trembling one. "Its alright, but I know how you can repay me for my heart ache, you must fix it!" Kagome stopped crying and she nodded, knowing what she had to do. "Alright. What about my transformation?" He looked at her for a long while before he finally began his explanation.

"In those memories you weren't human! You were vampire. Your father placed a spell on you so you will appear human to everyone that looked, until you reach your 17th birthday. Over the years that you were gone the years interloped, so every year that you spent here it was a hundred over there. When you first visited you were fifteen so it had been 500 years since you left at 10. The times took on the same rate because you had returned were you rightfully belonged. Kagome you are meant to be in that time, not here! Your brother, your real brother, needs you right now. The past me needs you too but I can wait until your family problems are resolved. Both your real parents died yesterday. Your fathers' will says that you are alive and stuck in the future because he couldn't get you; he had passed that gift upon you. Your brother will search for a way to get you and he could die during his search. We will meet at the annual ball that the central lord holds to keep the peace between lands, as long as there are no wars going on. It will not be that easy though. I'm sorry to say, but there will be very difficult tasks put before everyone that we know and ourselves. So I wish you luck! That is all the information I will be handing out today. Now if you excuse me I have a family to return to. Good bye Kagome." She stepped out of the car and ran toward her front door.

After she was in she grabbed her spell books and her personal belongings. She muttered a spell on the bag to hold more than it was capable of and to make it immensely light. She spotted a picture of her mother, Brother and Grandpa. "You aren't my real family! Only you cared for me like I was!" She Grabbed the picture and ran to the well faster than possible. 'I'm ready to be where I'm suppose to be! Let's hope the rest of the world is!'

Kagome jumped into the well and was already heading toward Keades village, when a little ball of fur came flying toward her, laughing. She placed Shippou on her shoulder. Inuyasha was running after him growling, a scowl on his face. "Sit!" he crashed to the ground.

"Inuyasha I need to talk to you about when you were a little kid! When you lived with your parents and Sesshoumaru." The sound of her own voice saying Sesshoumaru's name with such ease made her a little unsure. Inuyasha looked up at her. "I really can't remember to much about what went on back then, I do remember two kids staying for 10 years...I just can't remember their names. The girl stayed in Sesshoumaru's room, and the boy stayed in mine!" Kagome got a concentrated look on her face. "Do you remember where they were from?" The concentrated look passed on to Inuyasha as his eyebrows formed together. "I think they are rulers over the Southern lands. The lord and lady thought there kids were in danger and they were right. We kept them safe for 10 years before someone found out they were staying with us, so they had to leave. The Son currently rules now...The daughter is dead...That's why Sesshoumaru is so cold...He loved her...he was only 10 years old!" Kagome froze and thanked Inuyasha as he started asking why she was so curious.

"I'm going to go take a bath! Shippou you want to come?" He nodded and they left with Kagome's bag on her back and Shippou on her shoulder. They didn't have to walk to far before Shippou asked the question she had full intentions of answering. "Mama, where are we really going?" Kagome smiled and called a wild horse to her side. "We're going to my lands...The Southern lands." She mounted and they left, Inuyasha and her other companions behind.

(A/N: Well that is the first chapter, the second might take a little longer than this but who really knows? Except my computer...which hates me! NO JOKE!)
