Prologue
< Fuer osk Drakka??.Fuer Osk Drakka??.>
??Nani?? A soft feminine voice groaned, the shadows of the night playing acrossed a pale, untarnished face. Thick eyelashes fluttered open, twin gray irises focusing In a darkened room. Deep gray clouded softly by sleep adjusted slowly to her surroundings, her pupils dilated heavily. ? Who?s there??.Souta? Quit goofing around and go to sleep pest?.?She growled in irritation.
When a reply didn?t sound she sat up, her long ebony hair falling around her shoulders. ?Brat?? She called softly, blinking about the room. Her gentle eyes studied the room, taking in everything. Her white walls now a dark gray or black from the night, the green carpeted floor now black. Various stuffed animals and figurines stood on low shelves, a low breeze from her open window rustling thin violet curtains. She sighed, shaking her head to clear her thoughts, slipping out from under the warmth of her violet comforter, half tempted to return to it. She stumbled acrossed her room towards the window, still groggy.
The moon in it?s third stage stood out against the night sky, it?s Brilliant pale glow illuminating the young woman. She was frail from her looks, her eyes warm and curious. Delicate features formed her young face, her lips parting slightly in confusion.
?Coulda swore I shut this before I went to bed?? She thought halfheartedly. After sliding the pane back into place she turned back towards her bed, glancing at the alarm clock. ?NANI!? Only 1:00!!!??? She yelped to herself.
She yawned widely, her eyes drooping yet again. The young girl slumped back into the confines of her bed, sighing in contentment. Burrowing deeply into her rumpled blanket for warmth, she closed her eyes again, calling for sleep.
*** ? ?Gome!!? A male voice laughed, the sound of footfalls filling the afternoon. ?HAHA!!? A small girl laughed, running happily, her tiny feet carrying her nimbly through the forest. Her hand was locked to another?s, large claws gripping her fingers. Her shoulder length mop of hair waved in the wind, her face streaked with dirt. A young man about sixteen from his looks held her hand, running beside her. He was unusual, his long silver hair flowing wildly like a banner behind him. Small white dog ears lay flat against his skull, twin goldenrod eyes gleaming with joy. ?Hold on tight ?Gome! Or you?ll get lost!? He laughed. ?Slow down Inu!? She yelped, struggling to keep up with his speed. ?Here I?ll carry you!? He smirked, lifting her effortlessly onto his back. ?WHoa!? She exclaimed, clinging to his shoulders. ? Hang on!? He laughed. With a slight movement of his legs he was in the air, rushing up through the trees. The man broke through the canopy of the forest, seeming to float high above the trees.
?HAHA!!! Higher Inu-Sama!!? The child laughed, throwing her hands in the air. ?Hehe??The dog demon chuckled, smirking warmly at the little girl on his back. Her hands returned to his thick mane of hair, beaming happily at him. ?Hang on Brat!? He laughed, diving back towards the earth. His red haroi waved violently in the strong wind, his arms falling back to secure his passenger. She squealed with excitement, laughing joyously as the Inu Hanyou sprang into the trees, leaping from branch to branch. He came to a gentle halt atop a large tree, lifting the five year old from her perch on his back. He plopped down on a branch, sitting her in his lap.
She giggled happily, grinning up at him. The hanyou?s intense goldenrod eyes softened, a light smile curving his lips. ?I wish I wuz like you Inu-Sama?? The small child said, gazing at him admiringly. ?Heh! You don?t wanna be like me squirt??He replied, his head drooping slightly. ?Wut?s wrong Inu-Sama? ?She asked, concerned. ? Nuthin?.?He grinned at her, rubbing her head. ?Hey! Ack!!? She yelped, trying to escape. ?HAHA!! You think you can escape the nooge of doom?? He laughed, tickling her sides. She giggled wildly, close to tears. ?Kagome! Kagome where are you?? A Man called from a distance. ?Uh oh?.?The two groaned. ?Come on runt? Your Obaa-San wants ya?? He said, hefting her up onto his shoulder. ?Aww?do I have to? ?She whined, giving him her best puppy dog eyes. ? Hey! Don?t look at me like that! You gotta go ?fore He gets mad and don?t let you see me no more?? He growled.
?O-kay?.?She groaned, snorting lightly. She did her best imitation of her role model, crossing her arms acrossed her chest and sticking her nose in the air. ?Keh! He wouldn?t keep me from playin wit my Inu-Sama!? She stated proudly. ? Hahaha!!? He laughed, patting her head lightly. ?That?s my ?Gome!? He grinned. He dropped to the forest floor, walking towards the edge of the forest. He gently sat the pouting girl on her feet, crouching before her. ? I?ll see ya tomorrow.. K?? He whispered. ? K! Bye Inu-Sama!? She squealed happily, throwing her tiny arms around his neck. He grinned broadly, hugging her lightly. ? Now go on?? He whispered, nudging her towards the edge of the forest. She waved at him before running off towards a man who stood before a old shrine.
?Kagome?there you are?come on?it?s time for your bath.? the older man said gently. ?But DAD! I don?t wanna take a bath!? Kagome whined. ? Come now! No fussing?And your mother is getting worried?you really should stop running off into the forest..? Her Father scolded. ?Hey Obaa-San! Guess what me and Inu-Sama did today!? Kagome exclaimed. ? Kagome? What did I tell you about imaginary friends?? The middle aged Man asked. ?But he?s not ima?Imagrly?.He?s Weal!? The five years old argued. ?I know ,I know??Her Obaa-san sighed, shaking his head.
From the forest the hanyou watched silently, eyeing the tiny child affectionately. ? Thanx for tryin?..?Gome?? He murmured smiling lightly. ***
Chapter I Another day away from you
The sound of her alarm rang through the morning, startling her from her dreams. With a groan she threw off her covers, her feet resting on the floor. ?What a nice dream?.?She yawned, stretching lazily. The sixteen year old wobbled over to the closet, rubbing her eyes wearily. She felt a stab of pain shoot through her foot and a thump. ? YEOwch!? She yelped, caressing her stubbed toe. She glared at the offending object in distaste, kicking the toy car aside. ?Baka little brothers?moronic little brat leavin toys in my room?frikin toys??She grumbled angrily, mechanically dressing herself. It was the same as it always was, get dressed, eat breakfast, and go to school. Everyday the same routine. How boring.
Her eyes seemed to dim, loosing herself in thought. : Something is missing?..someone?: She thought sadly. ?Kagome! You?re going to be late! Move it!? Her Okaa-San yelled. ? YIPES! Chill out Ma! Sheesh!? Kagome growled. ? I didn?t teach my daughter to speak so improperly??The aging woman scolded. ? Yeah, yeah?Keh! ? Kagome snorted, grabbing her bag. She trotted outside, brother in tow. ?Oi! Nee-Chan!? The ten year old boy called. ? Nani?? She asked, glancing back at the dark haired boy. ? I?ll race ya!? He smirked mischievously. She glared at him suspiciously, and then glanced at the street corner. A wicked grin curved her lips, her eyes gleaming brightly. ? You sure you wanna challenge me brat? ?She asked. ? HEH! You?re a girl! You can?t beat me!? The boy laughed. ? Fine?.You?re on Souta!? She smirked.
?K! To the school! Ready?.GO!? He yelled, running off. ?Hey!? Kagome growled, running after him. Her school uniform waved behind her as she struggled to keep up with her kid brother. ? Hmmm?? She grinned, leaping over a low fence that bordered the sidewalk. She sprinted through a small field snickering evilly. Souta rounded corners, the school coming into view. ? Hey Nee Chan! Looks Like you are gunna loose!? He laughed, looking over his shoulder. ? Huh?? He blinked, noticing that his sister wasn?t behind him. ?Oi! Souta! What kept ya?? Kagome laughed from the steps of the school. ?HEY! How did you!? But! You didn?t pass me!?He whined. ?Keh! You are too slow to outrun me kid..? She laughed, walking inside.
*~*
? Now class today we are going to continue our review for the semester exams?please open your text to page?? The teacher rambled on, averting his attention to the blackboard. Kagome gazed out of the window, her thoughts on anything but the math problems on the board. : Why do I feel like something is missing? Is it that guy from the dream??Did something?happen to him? Where is he I wonder? Who am I kiddin? He is a imaginary person like mom said?After all?I was lonely as a kid?Sigh! I wonder if this summer is gunna be just as boring as the last?.yup?..I can guarantee it?.: She thought. ? Kagome?If you aren?t going to pay attention stand in the hall.? The teacher said.
She stood alone in the empty hall, her eyes drawn to the floor.
< Fuer osk Drakka?.Fuer osk Drakka?>
?N..Nani?!? She yelped suddenly, looking around frantically. ?Wh?Who is there?? She asked, her heartbeat pounding in her chest. When a reply didn?t sound she sighed deeply, shaking her head. : Kagome pull yourself together. Sheesh?.I?m startin at hear things?: She chuckled inwardly. A stab of pain forked through her suddenly, causing her to cry out.
<Fuer Osk Drakka??Come?..Come?>
?Ahhh!!? She yelled, her knees giving way. She clutched her head, the pain seeming to increase. ?H?help?.me?.?She whimpered before her eyes rolled back in her head and she collapsed to the floor.
~*~*~*~
White lights blinded her vision, Pain throbbing in her head. ?Uhh?? She groaned, her arm lifting to her head. Pain shot through her again, forcing a hiss from her. She let it fall back in defeat, groaning again. ? Oh! Higurashi! You?re awake!? A male voice exclaimed, Kagome wincing from the noise. ? Wha?happened?? She groaned, her eyes focusing on a young man sitting beside her. ?You collapsed?.The doctors said it was some sort of shock trigger?They aren?t sure though?? He explained, his green eyes filled with worry. His light brown hair gleamed dimly in the bright lights of the hostpital room. ? I rode up in the ambulance because I was so worried?? He added, smiling lightly at her. ? Houjo-Kun?You didn?t have to do that?..sorry I had you so worried?..I?m fine?..?She replied, sitting up. The room swam about her, Kagome fighting to clear her head.
? Higurashi-Sama! You shouldn?t sit up just yet!? Houjo exclaimed. ? I?m fine?really?.I guess all the stress from school and home got to me?? She stated, looking about the room. A small bouquet of wild flowers sat neatly on the desk beside her. ?Nani?? She blinked, staring curiously at the flowers. ?Oh! Those are from all of us. We pitched in to buy some for you. ? He beamed. ?All of you?? She asked. ?Of course all of us!? What did you think? we would abandon our Best friend?? A girl about Kagome?s age exclaimed, walking into the room, two other girls on her heels.
? Urumi, Sasunke, Rei?..You guys?.thanks?.? Kagome smiled warmly. She felt another wave of nausea hit her and she fell back onto the pillow, sleep rushing to take her to lala land.
~*~*~*~
A pair of goldenrod eyes gleamed angrily, a low growl escaping his throat. ??..something?..something happened to her??.? He snarled. Worry creased his brow as he stared out at the moon. A light ocean breeze lifted his thick mane of silver hair from his shoulders, his ears flattening slightly. ? Oi, InuYasha?.What?s up?? A smooth voice called. The hanyou turned his predatory gaze on an approaching man, stiffling a growl. The young man stopped before him, his violet eyes shining with curiosity. ? Nothing Bouzou?..? InuYasha growled, his gaze returning to the ocean.
?It doesn?t sound like just nothing?? The dark haired man replied, coming to stand beside the Inu Hanyou. ??.She?s hurt?.?InuYasha whispered. ? Who? The little girl?? The other boy asked. InuYasha merely drooped his head, his hands fisted at his sides. ? You do know that the odds of running into her are slim to none? ? The dark haired boy asked, sighing lightly. ? I KNOW THAT!? InuYasha snarled angrily. He sighed, his gaze falling to the deck they stood on. ?I..I just know that she will come here?..I don?t know why but? I have this gut feeling that I will find her here?? InuYasha said firmly.
? Well?..Do you remember her name?? His friend asked. InuYasha growled lightly, one of his ears flinching. ?Sigh! Well that just makes things even worse?? The other boy replied in defeat. ?OI! It was a long time ago Damnit!? The hanyou snapped. ?I don?t know??maybe it?s for the best? Maybe Kami-Sama doesn?t want you to find her??The other boy said, walking off to leave the Hanyou to his thoughts. ? Kami can kiss my ***! I will find her!? InuYasha snarled. His eyes softened as he turned back towards the ocean, inhaling deeply.
~*~*~
Kagome rode in the passenger seat of her mom?s SUV, staring absently out the window. ? Now Kagome?you have been knocked out for a little over a week so you have to take it easy at school?They are going to exempt you from your exams because of the accident?The doctors said it was caused from too much stress?.?Her Okaa-San chided. Kagome glanced over at the middle aged woman, before sighing lightly.
The vehicle can to a hault in front of the school, Kagome opening her door slowly. Her expression was as gloomy as the sky above her, rain falling down from ominous gray clouds. Oh how she wished it was just stress. But some small part of her knew it wasn?t? When she blacked out a few memories awoke from the depths of her mind?Kagome looked down at a puddle that had formed at her feet, her face emotionless.
A figure seemed to manifest itself in the shallow water, a woman. She was delicate, paler then even Kagome herself. Her eyes cold, devoid of all life, a emotionless brown. Her hair flowed about her person like water itself. Black as night, similar to Kagome?s, only longer, fuller and well kept. A flowing Hakama and Haori covered her frail form, making her seem like a sacred creature. ??.Kikyou?.? Kagome whispered, her breath catching. ? What?s wrong Kagome?? Her Okaa-san asked, rushing over to her daughter. Kagome shook her head lightly, walking on, rain drenching her hair.
Tears spilled from her eyes, mixing with the rain that poured in sheets now. A pink umbrella shielded her from the rain, the teenager oblivious to the shelter. ? Are you sure you are alright?? Her mother asked, wrapping an arm around her shoulders. ?mm hmm?? She murmured softly, stepping out of her mother?s embrace. She walked towards the door, holding her head high. ?Bye dear! Call me if you need to come home??He mother called.
Kagome faced her mother, giving her the best smile she could muster. It failed.

Her mother asked, wrapping an arm around her shoulders. ?mm hmm?? She murmured softly, stepping out of her mother?s embrace. She walked towards the door, holding her head high. ?Bye dear! Call me if you need to come home??He mother called.
Kagome faced her mother, giving her the best smile she could muster. It failed.
