Allright! This is the second chapter of "Too Much". Nothing happens in this chapter... It's just the people in the cast thinking about Kagome's disappearance... and, well, I don't know what more to say. Okay, the real story starts in chapter three... just so that you'd know. I hope you'll enjoy it! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Too Much Part two, thoughts It had been a month since Kagome had left. Inu-Yasha had gone to her time too get her back but she weren't there. The last month they had all been searching for her. Kaede hadn't seen her and neither had anyone in her family. When he had first showed up to her house Kagome's mother had started yelling at him to bring her baby back. They were all very worried about her... what if she'd gotten attacked by demons? probably... after all... she had the jewel shards. They had run into a few demons when they were searching for Kagome, and they now had four shards... pretty much in a month. Now, the group had stopped to rest at an inn. Inu-Yasha sat by a table. He had his head between his hands... he looked terrible. His hair was a mess and his clothes were dirty. His eyes were filled with sadness and his voice weak. Of course... he never showed anyone... atleast he thought he didn't. Everyone in the group could see how miserable he was... he wasn't very good at hiding it. They had tried to cheer him up once in a while but it never worked. "Kagome..." He murmured and hid his face in his hands as he felt the tears well up in his eyes again. Why...? he wondered, why had she left, and why was he hurting so much? He knew he loved her... but shouldn't he be supposed to be stronger? He was a demon after all... or atleast, half a demon. Shippou watched Inu-Yasha... he was the one who had taken this the hardest... after all... he'd known her from the start, from the first she arrived in this time. Ok, so maybe Kaede had known her for a short moment longer than him but he had certainly spent more time with her than Kaede had. Shippou was very sad about Kagome being gone too... she had been the first one to be nice to him since his father had died... without her... he'd be dead by now... He knew that Inu-Yasha wouldn't be alive either, Kagome had saved him lot of times, without her... Inu-Yasha wouldn't have the Tetsusaiga, he would still be stuck to that tree even! Shippou sighed and jumped out the window. He had nothing to do when Kagome was gone, it was so boring around here. She always knew how to start a conversation... but without her everybody was so quiet. Shippou didn't like when people was so quiet... because that meant sadness. Sango was sad... it was no question about it. Kagome had been special... the most special girl she'd ever met. She could always bring cheerfulness to the group, with her voice, her laughter. Kagome had also been a girl, and the others weren't, so she felt much more comfortable talking to Kagome than anyone else. Sango sighed and watched the sky above her, she was sitting beside a small little lake. She loved the water, shimmering and beautiful. Every time they got to a hot spring or atleast some water warm enough to bath in, Kagome always insisted on taking a dip. Sango wondered why Kagome was so obsessed with keeping clean, she had never meet anyone who bathed as often as Kagome. Sango smiled, yes indeed, she was a very special girl. Then Sango's smile disappeared. But Kagome was gone, she had left the. Sango didn't know if Kagome could still be alive... she must have been attacked by demons... after all... she was carrying the shards with her. But Kagome had powers... maybe, maybe she'd been able to protect herself. Miroku was thinking along the same lines as the others. Where was Kagome? Was she okay? He sighed and sat down in a corner, he was pretty down. Kagome was very important to him. He wasn't inlove with her but she was his friend... an important friend. He'd been very shocked when she told them that she didn't want to be with them... after that, he'd been sad... just like the others. The group wasn't alive without her... without her small jokes, her smiles and her silliness. He smiled at that, yes... sometimes she could be very silly... but she could still be serious. She almost never took sides... atleast not when he and Inu-Yasha argued... she'd yell at them both and call them both idiots. That was really funny. He sighed again. But she had left them? Why had she left them? Because she thought they were annoying? Because she didn't like them? Kagome didn't seem to be like that... Maybe she was possessed by something, Miroku thought, and then he shook his head. She must've been tired of them... after all... we're just a bunch with depressing pasts and nothing else... Kagome was the only one it seemed with a happy one... atleast he thought she had had a happy past. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay! It's done! As I said i the beginning... this is not the real story... um... or whatever you say. If you read the title (And still remember it) you might understand that this fic only dealt with the groups thoughts. Well... I don't know what more to say, except: Tell me your thoughts: hannafrid@hotmail.com Hanna Fridén http://www.fortunecity.com/victorian/blake/193/fanfiction/inufic.html
