I Will Protect You

Part 1

It was the middle of the night but Kagome was nowhere near tired, she was looking up at the full starlight night while a single tear went down her check. Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were looking sadly at Kagome for they knew why she was sad, Inuyasha again, though she no longer loved him like she used to but she did have this sense of duty towards him, like family wise.

While Kagome was silently crying over the hurt that Inuyasha had once again caused she couldn't help but wonder if there was any way for her to have her happiness's, just as she wiped away her silent tears both Sango and Miroku just couldn't take it anymore they were tired of what Kagome went through day by day.

So they then decided that she shouldn't have to stay and before Kagome knew it both Sango and Miroku got up from the floor and began to pack her things, Kagome was more than confused as to why they were packing her things and just before she could ask what they were doing Kilala transformed into her bigger form.

"Um . . . guy's what are you doing?" Sango went to Kagome and grabbed both her hands and said to her.

"Kagome we are tired of seeing you sad. Both Miroku and I think that you should probably go home for a while. And once you are rested and have things back in order for yourself, come back okay?"

Kagome was beyond surprise for her dear friends who she thought of as family were so worried for that they couldn't stand to see her hurt any more, she was beyond moved by their kindness and thoughtfulness. Kagome nodded at them and as Miroku handed her pack she hopped on the fully transformed Kilala and was soaring through the sky.

It took a while but they soon made it to the bone eater's well and once Kagome hopped off of Kilala's back she gently scratched behind her ear, Kagome then made her way to the lip of the well and before she jumped right in she gazed down at the dark awaiting well. She closed her eyes and prayed out loud to whatever god that was listening to her.

"Please . . . I just want someone to love me for me."

Kagome then opened her eyes and jumped into the well expecting to feel and see the familiar blue lights that she is used to, but that didn't happen no instead of the blue light that she is used too were now white and gold light shined instead. This confused Kagome but the light felt safe and warm thus calming her down.

Kagome then landed at the bottom of the well with a light thud and once she was on her feet she looked up towards the mouth of the well and gasped as she saw that there was no wooden roof but open sky, it was still dark out but it was obvious that she wasn't in the future.

Kagome looked to see if the vines were still there and sure enough they were she thanked her lucky stars and began to climb out of the well, once she was at the lip of the well she lifted herself up and swung her legs over until they were both touching the soft earth floor.

Kagome looked around to see if maybe the well kept her in the feudal era but as she gazed around she saw that some of the tree's looked a bit . . . young? That was impossible but the more she kept of gazing the more she started to wonder, it wasn't until her eye landed on a specific tree that made her eyes go wide.

The God Tree. It was a bit smaller and looked younger then the tree that she knew in both her time and in the feudal era. Kagome's mind began to go a mile a minute. When was she? How far in time did she go? Would she be able to return? Too many questions and not enough answer's.

But she did wonder if she would be able to go back to the feudal era, she had to try. Kagome faced back towards the well and was about to jump in until she felt a strong yoki energy coming her way and it wasn't the only one either. Kagome cursed her luck and reached for her bow and arrows.
