I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Inuyasha
Story
Kagome happily ran out of the large house, her well known yellow backpack in hand. She placed the heavy object over her shoulders and shifted it into place. After she deemed it secure, she started walk towards her destination, which wasn't as far as you would have believed it to be. She hummed a happy tune while thinking about all the things she had to do today. She had no idea that the whole time she was being carefully watched…
Piercing orbs studied her every move, waiting for the right moment to strike. Following her every step, the creature took note at the woman's cheerful attitude and happy disposition. The act almost made it chuckle in pure amusement.
It has been watching her for several weeks now. She ate, slept, and talked with her friends without even realizing anything. She has no idea what is about to happen to her. Today was the day that would change her life forever. Today, she will never see things the same again. Today was the day she was going to regret leaving this place, and she will always regret it for the rest of her life…
In that moment, Kagome walked passed the patch of forest which kept the spy well hidden. The girl paused in her stride, before looking towards the area, feeling eyes upon her person. The fact that she looked its way almost surprised it-- almost.
She then shrugged, passing it off as her imagination, and continued her way towards the small hut, a smile on her face. The creature smirked in satisfaction as it watched her open the door to the hut, before walking inside and closing the door behind her. After several moments, a pink glow seeped its way out of the cracks in the old building, before it slowly faded away…
She's gone! It hissed in delight. Now is the time…
The unknown creature burst out of the forest and ran towards the large house, its heart beating excitedly against its chest. Finally-- It smirked in joy, while slamming the door open and rushing inside. A delicious smell wafted into its nose, and it immediately knew its target was in the kitchen.
It ran through the house, but as it neared the cooking area it slowed down it's pace. It calmly strolled into the room, and its eyes immediately focused on the older woman, who was watching her food cook on the stove. It stood there, just staring into the woman's back, wondering when she would realize it was there…
After several minutes the woman paused in her cooking, and turned her head to look over her shoulder. Her eyes locked onto it's. Both surprise and worry instantly showed on the woman's face. She turned completely around, and out of habit her hand went onto her chest, another sign of worry.
"That was quick." She spoke. "Is something wrong? Did you forget something?" She questioned.
Tears filled the creature's blue eyes, and she shook her head no. She then ran towards the woman and embraced her in a loving hug.
"I'm home, Mother…"
After waiting for so long, I am finally home…
