kagome mentally cursed as she felt her foot snag on something. feeling herself about to fall she did the first thing that came to mind, which was to throw her hands out in front of her. closing her eyes she prepared for the worst, a few seconds later she cringed as her hands and knees hit the ground hard. sighing deeply, she opened her arms and looked at her surroundings.

thankfully, the fall wasn't too hard, though her hands and knees hurt a bit, it wasn't as bad as it could have been. shaking her head to clear her wandering thoughts, kagome carefully rose from the ground. her arms and legs still felt shaky from the fall but she had experienced worst. sighing softly, she

ushed her hands onto her pants before looking at them carefully. her palms were slightly red, but aside from that there was no damage.

glancing down at her knees she frowned, those were another story. while they weren't bleeding there was some wet substance seeping from them. my knees are crying she thought with a light chuckle.

inging her hands up, she rubbed her eyes before looking around her surroundings once more. she was tired, and worst of all she was lost.

this is all my fault though she thought with a frown. shaking her head, she went towards a fallen tree trunk nearby and sat down on it. glancing up at the sky, her frown deepened. it was getting dark now, which meant traveling alone any further would be a bad idea. she was starting to really regret leaving the place she had been staying at, she was still not use to her surroundings, so going to explore the forest had not been a good decision her part. at that thought, kagome sighed.

she had been in this new world for a while now; there was no calendar where she was staying. so it wasn't like she could count the exact amount of days or months that she had been in this new world. i wonder how everyone is doing? she pondered, thinking of her friends and family from both her world and the feudal era always made her heart ache.

she missed them greatly, but she had yet to find a way back. there was no well that could transport her through the time period, there was nothing. it irked her in some ways, but she knew that she couldn't do anything about it. looking down at the floor, she lightly kicked some dirt away with her boot. as of now, this place was her home, at least until she could find a way back.

it wasn't all bad. an amusement park owner had luckily taken her in. living in an amusement park had been something she had always wanted, ever since she was a child. she chuckled lightly at the thought; it wasn't as glamorous as she had thought it would be. but it was still enjoyable, most of the time.

kagome stiffened as she heard the nearby bushes rustle. her eyes narrowed as she glanced at where the sound was coming from. standing from the trunk she was sitting on, she leaned down and picked up a rock before standing again, this time in a defensive form. while a rock wasn't the best form of weapon, especially considering what most here carried, it was the best she could do right now and could only hope that whatever was coming wasn't very strong.

she frowned as she continued to stare in the direction the sound had come from. whoever it was obviously wasn't trying to sneak up on her, because they were making as much noise as possible. however, one thing she had learned in her time here was that you could not let your guard down with anyone, no matter how friendly they may appear at first.

her thoughts were

oken as the person finally made themselves known. kagome felt her body relax slightly as her gaze landed on the familiar person. straightening up, she let the rock fall to the ground and she watched the person in amusement. she continued watching him, as he dug through the bushes, when it was obvious that he had yet to notice her she cleared her throat to gain his attention.

she held in a chuckle, as the man made a sound of surprise and jumped in the air before turning around to face her with a startled expression. he put his hand to his chest, as he looked at her with a slight pout, his adorable ears twitching as did his tail. "kagome!" he scolded "don't sneak up on me like that, chu!"

kagome chuckled, offering the man a smile. "i'm sorry pierce. but it was you that snuck up on me" she stated softly as she looked at the man fondly. he had been one of the few that she had come to like since entering this new world. he was one she knew she did not have to guard herself with, for he was more frightened of everything around him that she doubted that he could ever be frightening. or at least, not as frightened as the others she had met thus far.

he frowned and approached her. "i did?" he questioned, while tipping his head slightly to the side. his mouse features along with his adorable face made kagome want to squee and glomp him. but she with held the urge to do so and nodded her head in answer to his question.

"yes, i was here first." she replied.

he frowned and looked around in a nervous manner. "why are you all the way out here?" he questioned.

kagome chuckled, already knowing what he was thinking. "because, i decided to go for a walk but then ended up too far. also, don't worry boris nor the twins are with me" she replied.

pierce had yet to relax, but he sighed in relief. "so you're lost?" he questioned. seeing kagome's nod, he frowned. "stay here, i'll go and get something to eat!" before kagome could answer, pierce dropped what he had been holding before and went into the surrounding foliage.

kagome chuckled softly and shook her head. feeling slightly better after seeing a familiar face, she went back towards the trunk she had been using earlier and reclaimed her seat. kagome looked up into the sky as she waited for pierce to return with the 'meal' he was getting.

she didn't have to wait long, for moments later pierce came rushing into the clearing with a hand full of fruit. as he approached her, he offered a timid smile. "sorry, i couldn't catch any meat for you" he stated with frown. obviously, not pleased with himself.

kagome giggled softly as she watched him approach. as he sat near her, kagome looked at what he had

ought before offering him a reassuring smile. "thank you pierce. i love fruit so this is wonderful." she stated before taking what he had offered her.

pierce smiled

ightly at her. "thank you kagome!" he replied. nodding, kagome began to eat what had been

ought to her. pierce followed soon after, leaving the two of them to enjoy their meal in silence, the only sound coming from the nature around them. once the meal was finished, kagome listened as pierce began to talk about anything and everything that came to his mind. which was something that kagome found she did not mind.

it was like being with an older version of shippo, except the one she was talking to now was a mouse and he was a lot taller then the small kitsune she use to take care of. kagome was

ought from her observation as she noticed that pierce had stiffened and quieted very quickly.

raising a

ow at his sudden change. kagome frowned and leaned towards him "pierce what's wrong?" she questioned. frowning when he did not answer right away, kagome looked around the surrounding area, listening intently for any sound of an intruder. she had almost forgotten that pierce was not the only thing that wandered the forest.

before she could think more on it, the thump sounded behind her. turning around quickly, she nearly fell back in shock, as a familiar face was only an inch away from her own. putting her hand to her chest to calm the rapid beating of her heart, kagome glared at the male before her. "boris!" she scolded. "what are you doing sneaking around like that?"

boris glanced at her, before looking behind her to where pierce sat, his form rigid as he looked at the feline-man with wide frightened eyes. glaring at the man, boris frowned as he leaned back to where he was standing straight. he looked away from pierce to look at kagome, his eyes still held some anger but not as much. "i was looking for you" he replied. his frown deepened as he looked between her and pierce. "the real question is, what are you doing with him?"

kagome frowned at the accusation held in the pink haired males voice. she felt like her lover had just caught her when she was with another man. which was not the case at all here. leveling the feline-man with her a glare of her own. she huffed lightly in annoyance. "it wasn't planned. i got lost on my walk and had run into pierce along the way. we had dinner and talked. that's all." her frowned deepened, and her

ow furrowed as she noticed the intense glare boris was now giving pierce. "aside from that, why should i have to explain this to you?"
