One step forward
She hadn't seen any of them in months. At first Kagome didn't really feel anything. Life was normal. Her deepest thoughts consisted of what college she would attend over her more pressing and longing memories. But repression is never good for the soul or the heart. So eventually, after such a long while of not thinking about them, she came across an old painting deep in her houses attic.
Carefully she cleared the dust off its surface and found an ancient depiction of three travelers. One was a demon. It looked little like the friends she knew but the similarities were to clear to ignore. Things like the details of the woman's large boomerang, to the rigid staff the monk carried and the soft and carefully painted tail of the demon near them made it obvious.
She knew who these people were and after a moment longer she felt herself fall apart. Tears began to soak her face, and no matter how hard she tried to wipe them away they continued to fall.
"I miss you guys." She found herself whispering pathetically. "I really, really do."
And with that, she learned, moving on takes more then pretending it didn't happen. And so, she decided she would take a journey of her own and let her feet carry her wherever they may lead. It was a disgustingly whimsical idea but she did it anyway.
I will update irregularly when inspiration hits me. I may update within seconds or the next day. This is my first drabble story as I usually attempt to write chapters but forcing myself to sit and write long things when I dont want to leads me to dropping a story all together. So this writing style suits me better I think. That, and I also recently read some really good ones by the author forthright. Kind made me warm up to the whole dabble thing.
