The Future Through The Past

AN: I wasn't trying to imply that Inuyasha was a total complete idiot. But he tends to have a one track mind when he is mad. Upon realizing that someone else had the shard Kagome had he automatically assumed she'd been killed for it. And just once pissed all he could concentrate was that fact. Plus, it will come out that he and Kagome only went together one time, so it is a lot easier to believe that she was killed for it. The thought that him and Kagome might have actually sired a child never crossed his mind the twenty years she's been gone.

Chapter Nine

Inuyasha walked behind Mrs. H down the long hall. The walls were painted in a soft yellow color, the carpet was a light brown. The hall was quiet, a few people walked around. A doctor was standing outside the door when the two pulled up. The short bald man turned and greeted them.

"Higurashi, glad you could make it while I was here. I just left Kagome, do you have any concerns while I'm here?"

"Morning, how is she?"

"No change I'm afraid. Ah, this must be Takara's father." He looked at Inuyasha who was standing behind her. He had on a pair of jeans, tshirt, sneakers and ball cap; all borrowed from Souta. "Speaking of which I haven't seen her in a while."

"She'll be by here a little later. May we go in?" At his nod Gran walked inside the room with Inuyasha on her heels.

Inuyasha walked up to the small bed in the middle of the room, not wanting to believe what he saw. Twenty years and she hadn't changed much. That was still his Kagome laying deathly still on the bed. Her hair was shorter than he remembered, it fell only to her shoulders now. Her beautiful face was pale, even in sleep she looked sad.

"I'll give you some time alone." Mrs. H. walked out the room closing the door softly behind her.

"Kagome," He reached a clawed hand out, stroking it lightly across her face. The knuckles caressed the tender flesh, he let his thoughts return to the day she'd ran from him. He knew it was his fault he'd lost her. He'd been standing in front of their tree thinking to himself when Kagome had appeared at his side.

{Flashback}

"Inuyasha?"

He looked to see the girl he'd been thinking about standing beside him. He'd been so lost in thought he hadn't sensed her approaching. "What are you doing out here Kagome?"

"Came to check on you, you've been quiet these last few days."

"I got a lot on my mind." He stated.

"That's suprising." She smiled when he glared at her.

He watched as she glanced up at the tree, where he'd been pinned for fifty years. The wind blew her hair, caressing her cheek. His hand came up on it's own removing the wayward lock. He felt his heart speed up when she cupped his hand to her face, then place a light kiss across the palm. Suddenly she stepped up to him placing a soft kiss across his mouth. He closed his eyes and returned the pressure. Kagome's arms went around his neck pulling him closer.

He was too stunned to do anything besides return the kiss. He felt a strange heat begin to pool in his stomach when her tongue came out to lightly stroke his bottom lip. Every nerve in his body felt alive at the contact. Her tongue found its way into his mouth brushing across his. His arms came up to wrap around her waist pulling her tight against him. Kagome deepened the kiss, he matched her movements. The sweet taste of her mouth caused the heat to intensify, consuming him. He felt his shaft begin to harden, coming to life.

A strange scent caught his nose, it was coming from Kagome. The smell caused his blood to rush, his pulse to quicken. He knew he wanted her, he longed to be with her. He'd never allowed himself close enough to anyone to perform a sexual act of love. Not even Kikyo. What he felt was completely new and breathtaking. He'd felt stirs of desire for the girl in his arms on many occasions but had never acted on it.

"Sit with me?" She asked and pulled away from him.

He sat down on the forest floor not sure what to say to her. He wanted her, his body was aching for some kind of fulfillment. She took a seat next to him, too close for comfort. She was facing him, watching as if seeking some answer. She leaned forward claiming his mouth once more. He returned the kiss without hesitation. His hands fisted at his sides, he was scared to touch her.
"Kagome, we need to stop. If not something might happen."

"I know."

Her arms came up to wrap around his neck. Did she want it to happen? Her scent spiked when his hand left his side to land on her waist. She lowered herself to the ground pulling him with her. She placed his hand on her thigh, bringing his head down to kiss her. He felt like he was going to burst through his pants.

He wasn't sure who started the undressing but within minutes he found Kagome under him; both without a stitch of clothing on. They continued to kiss as he positioned himself over her, instinct told him what he sought. His tip rubbed against her opening. He could feel the heat and wetness beckoning him. He heard her gasp of pain as he entered her, his own echoed. He stared down at her face seeing a lone tear slide out the corner of her eye. He never imagined anything feeling so good as he moved inside her.
He leaned over and kissed the trail it made down to her ear. His mouth kissed the lobe of her ear. As she moaned his name, he felt all the feelings he had for her rush to surface. His words slipped out before he could stop them. "I love you."

Her arms and legs wrapped around him pulling him closer to her. He felt intense pressure begin to build as he continued to slowly fill her. For the first time in his life he felt complete. He felt her walls tighten around him causing waves of pleasure to wash over him. He felt his body jerk as his body released deep inside hers.

He layed down on his back beside her pulling her into his arms. She placed her head on his chest hugging him. He didn't know what to say. Speaking the words outloud made him realize that they were true. He was in love with the strange girl from the future. His Kagome had somehow broken down the barriers to his heart and taken up resident. He felt like a weight had been lifted from his shoulder. His thoughts went to Kikyo, how did he feel about her? He knew he still loved her, cared for her. At one time he would have wanted a life with her. No longer. He had loved her but he'd never been in love with her. He was sure at one time she'd felt some type of love for him. Yet she'd never wanted him to stay a hanyou. Kagome loved him for who he was, a hanyou. He would never doubt Kagome's feelings for him. Now, he would never doubt his for her. He wanted to always be by her side. In order to do so he'd have to break his promise to Kikyo. Yet if she had ever loved him, then she would be able to understand that he had moved on. As soon as Naraku was defeated and Kikyo's death avenged; he would make a life with Kagome. Be it in this era or hers.

He sighed deep in his chest. He knew it would hurt Kikyo, to know that he loved Kagome more. But he had to be true to himself and what he wanted. He brought a hand up to stroke the long black hair on his chest. "Kikyo."

She suddenly bolted up, he felt like kicking himself. He tried to explain what he'd been thinking but she stood up. Without looking at him. "Sit." Thud!

"Dammit Kagome listen."

"SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT." She grabbed her clothing off the ground and ran.

He'd been able to get up twenty minutes later and ran straight to the well. He jumped down into the darkness and cursed when his feet hit bottom. Her scent had led to the well, which meant she'd gone home. The blasted well wasn't letting him through for some reason.

He tried for weeks after, he wanted to speak to her. To explain but eventually he accepted the fact. He'd just lost the best thing that had ever happened to him.

{End Flashback}


Inuyasha stared down at his Kagome wishing she'd wake up. Why didn't she come back to tell him of the child? Twenty years had passed for him and he still loved her. He'd never moved on. Two months after her departure they'd ran into Kikyo again and he'd went off to speak to her. Even knowing that Kagome was upset with him and would probably never come back he informed Kikyo of his decision. She said she'd been expecting it and accepted it. She told him she merely sought the destruction of Naraku and the jewel. They parted, two weeks later Naraku had killed her. Kikyo had tried to purify what jewel he had along with him but something had went wrong. In the end her body gave out on her causing her death.

Inuyasha pulled up a chair placing it next to the bed. He sat down, holding the still hand in his. "Kagome, please come back I need you."


Sesshoumaru decided to take the small black device apart. It somehow made the big box in front of him change its picture. He was curious how it worked. It snapped apart in his hands, several small pieces fell to his lap.

"I think you just broke it." Kora sat down on the couch beside him. Everyone else had been gone almost all day, except her father. He was sitting outside, sulking about something. She looked up at the dog youkai beside her. She didn't remember him being that cute. As a child all she saw was a very tall, scary man that never smiled. He was still tall, scary but after ten years he'd gotten cute.


"I did not break it. This Sesshoumaru knows what he is doing."

"Sure ya do." She watched him look at each small piece. She watched him hold a small metal square up between his fingers. It proceeded to bend in half. "I think that was suppose to stay flat but thats just my opinion."

"Silence."

"HAH, you broke it admit it." She got up and walked outside. Leaving him alone to try and fix the remote. As soon as she stepped outside a loud noise penitrated the air. Kouga landed beside her, looking around.

Souta was coming up the stairs with Takara at his side carrying some kind of bag. They seemed to be in a heated arguement, the female slowly winning. Her hair was hanging freely down her back, her bangs plastered to her forehead. She was still in the same clothing she'd left in. "Come on, it will be an experience for them."

"No."

"Ask them, you'll be there to make sure nothing bad happens. We can't leave them here in the shrine all day long. Let them see a little bit of this era." Takara stated.

Sesshoumaru came outside to see what was going on. "What is the matter?"

"Nothing is wrong. I have a game to attend tonight and Uncle Souta will be going also." She didn't mention the fact that he had a small crush on one of the teachers. "I suggested that we let everyone come. There will be a lot of people there but it will get you out of the shrine. As long as you promise to behave yourselves."

"Can we go out dad please?" Kora gave her dad sappy eyes.

"Hell no, bad enough I got to smell dog all day. Now you want me to be surrounded by a bunch of humans." Kouga shouted.

"PLEASE!!!! It might be fun."

"This Sesshoumaru will go, I am interested to see how humans exist."

"See, the only one being a sourpuss is Kouga. We will just leave him home." Takara clapped her hands. "I need to go shower and get ready. Kora come upstairs in a bit, I'll have some clothes for you to put on."
