The Lost Dog Demon

Chapter 13

It's been four days since I left the feudal era. Just three more to go and I will go back for good. I couldn't wait to return. I miss seeing Rin and A-Un, picking on Jaken, and training with Sesshomaru. It had became my life and now that I am back here it feels almost like it was a dream. The only thing that's making not actually believe it, is because I'm a demon now.

When ever Inuyasha shows up in this time, he has been helping me train. Though we use different swords instead of our own. Kagome wouldn't let us use our own, saying that we could destroy half of Japan. I laughed at the thought, while Inuyasha muttered complaints.

I wonder what Sesshomaru would think if he learned that Inuyasha was training me to fight. He'd probably get angry or say something bad about Inuyasha. While training with him, we sort of had a brother and sister relationship going on. I would tease him a bit about Kagome, or something he did, and he would get angry or chase me around. It was actually nice having him around.

As the four days went by, I went to school. Hung out with Mochi during lunch, do school work, and go back to Kagome's or occasionally hang out with Mochi for a bit. While those days went by I kept wondering how I could die in this time.

I came up with something. I could get Kagome to tell Mochi that I had died while in America. Car crash, a fall or some sort of sickness. I'm sure Grampa Higurashi could think of a some strange sickness to tell.

"Three more days til you go to America." Mochi said and I nodded my head, "Time has gone by so fast."

"Yeah, I'm kind of excited to go to America though. It's like an adventure." I told him and he nodded his head.

"I always wanted to go to America. What part of America will you be moving too?" he asked me.

"Uh, I think, I think..." I began as I thought, "I think my Uncle said the south, like Virginia or something. I wasn't paying much attention, because I was shocked by the news of going to America."

"It must have been shocking. To wake up from a coma to learn that you have to move to America." Mochi said and I nodded my head.

"I couldn't believe it. I was in denial actually for a week." I told him lying easily.

"I wish you didn't have to go." Mochi said and I looked down at the sidewalk.

"Yeah," I said and stood up quickly smiling at Mochi, "You know what, let's play hide and seek! Just like we use to when we were kids!"

"Sounds fun." he said smiling and standing up.

"Okay you count and I'll go hide." I told him and he nodded turning around.

He began to count and ran off into the park. I jumped into a tree and hid. I watched Mochi walk around shaking his head chuckling a bit. He called out for me a few minutes. I jumped down from the tree and hid behind it.

I let Mochi find me and I laughed at his excited expression.

"I finally found you! You're losing your touch!" he shouted happily and I nodded my head.

When we used to play hide and seek as children, Mochi had trouble finding me. I let him this time.

"Okay, now you go hide and I'll count." I told him turning around.

~Three day later~

I walked out of the bathroom after taking my last shower. I let out a sigh and touched the black ribbons in my hair. I actually liked how I looked with them on. I'll probably keep them, until I lose them.

"Are you ready to leave?" Kagome asked and I nodded my head grabbing my backpack that was filled with items that I or Rin needed.

"Kaori, someone is here to see you." Mrs. Higurashi said and I let out a sigh as I heard Mochi speaking with Mrs. Higurashi.
