"Realm Of The Forsaken"

Summary: In Dark Midnight, Kagome thought the summer would last forever. Then she was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Now Kagome's only hope for survival is Inuyasha, her friend and her secret love. A Vampire in the Realm Of The Forsaken, Inuyasha can make Kagome immortal. But first they both must risk everything to go against the laws of the Realm Of The Forsaken.

-x- Intro -x-

The Realm Of The Forsaken isn't a place. It's all around us. The creatures of The Realm Of The Forsaken are beautiful and deadly and irresistible to humans. Your best friend could be one- so could your crush.

The laws of The Realm Of The Forsaken are very clear:

Humans must never learn that The Realm Of The Forsaken Exists.

And Members of The Realm Of The Forsaken must never fall in love with a human.

Violate the laws and the consequences are terrifying.

These are the stories about what happen when the rules get broken..

-x- Life Is So Cruel -x-

It was on the first day of summer vacation that Kagome found out she was going to die.

It happened on Monday, the first real day of vacation (the weekend didn't count). Kagome woke up feeling gloriously weightless and thought, No school.

Sunlight was streaming in the window, turning the sheer hangings around her bed filmy gold. Kagome pushed them aside and jumped out of bed- and winced.

Ouch. That pain in her stomach again. Sort of a gnawing, as if something were eating its way toward her back. It helped a little if she bent over.

No, Kagome thought. I refuse to be sick during summer vacation. I refuse. A little power of positive thinking is what's needed here.

Grimly, doubled over- think positive, idiot!- she mad her way down the hall to the turquoise-and-gold-tiled bathroom.

At first she thought she was going to throw up, but then the pain eased as suddenly as it had come. Kagome straightened and regarded her tousled reflection triumphantly.

"Stick with me, kid, and you'll be fine," she whispered to it, and gave her own green eyes narrow in suspicion. There on her nose were four freckles. Four and a half, if she were completely honest, which Kagome South usually was. How childish, how- cute! Kagome stuck her tongue out at herself and then turned away with great dignity, without bothering to comb the wild blonde curls that clustered over her head.

She maintained the dignity until she got to the kitchen, where Souta, her twin brother, was eating Special K. Then she narrowed her eyes again, this time at him. It was bad enough to be small, slight, and curly-haired- to look, in fact, as much like an elf as anything she'd ever seen sitting on a buttercup in a children's picture book- but to have a twin who was tall, Viking-blond, and classically handsome . . . Well, that just showed a certain deliberate malice in the makeup of the universe, didn't it?

"Hello, Souta," she said in a voice heavy with menace.

Souta, who was used to his sister's moods, was unimpressed. He lifted his gaze from the comic section of L.A. Times for a moment. Kagome had to admit that he had his nice eyes: questing green eyes with very dark eye lashes. They were one of things the twins had in common.

"Hi," Souta said fatly, and went back to the comics. Not many kids Kagome knew read the newspaper, but that was Souta all over. Like Kagome, he'd been a junior at El Camino High last year, and unlike Kagome, he'd made straight A's while starring on the football team, the hockey team, and the baseball team. Also serving as Class President. One of Kagome's greatest joys in life was teasing him. She thought he was too straitlaced.

Just now she giggled and shrugged, giving up the menacing look. "Where's Kole & Mom?" Kole Higurashi was their stepfather of three years and even straighter-laced than Souta.

"Kole's at work. Mom's getting dressed. You'd better eat something or she'll get on your case."

"Yeah, yeah . . ." Kagome went on tiptoe to rummage through a cupboard. Finding a box of Frosted Flakes, she thrust a hand in and delicately pulled out one flake. She ate it dry.

It wasn't all bad being short and elfin. She did a few dance steps to the refrigerator, shaking the cereal box in rhythm.

"I'm a . . . sex pixie!" she sang, giving it a foot-stomping rhythm.

"No, you're not," Souta said with devastating calm. "And why don't you go put some clothes on?"

Holding the refrigerator door open, Kagome looked down at herself. She was wearing the oversize T-shirt she'd slept in. It covered her like a minidress.

"This is clothes," she said serenely, taking a Diet Coke from the fridge.

There was a knock at the kitchen door. Kagome saw who it was through the screen.

"Hi, Inuyasha! C'mon in!"

Inuyasha Takahashi came in, taking off his wraparound Ray-Bans. Looking at him, Kagome felt a pang- as always. It doesn't matter that she had seem him every day, practically, for the past ten years. She still felt a quick sharp throb in her chest, somewhere between sweetness and pain, when first confronted with him every morning.

It wasn't just his outlaw good looks, which always reminded her vaguely of Jack E. Strify. He had silky long white hair, a subtle, intelligent face, and gray golden eyes that were alternately intense and cool. He was the handsome boy at El Camino High, but that wasn't it, that wasn't what Kagome responded to. It was something inside him, something mysterious and compelling and always just out of reach. It made her heart beat fast and her skin tingle.

Souta felt differently. As soon as Inuyasha came in, he stiffened and his face went cold. Electric dislike flashed between the two boys.

Then Inuyasha smiled faintly, as if Souta's reaction amused him. "Hi."

"Hi," Souta said, not thawing in the least. Kagome had the strong sense that he'd like to bundle her up and rush her out of the room. Souta always overdid the protective-brother bit when Inuyasha was around.

"So how's Jaclyn & Ember?" He said nastily.

Inuyasha considered. "Well, I don't really know."

"You don't know? Oh, yeah, you always drop your girlfriends just before summer vacation. Leaves you free to maneuver, right?"

"Of course," James said blandly. He smiled.

Souta glared at him with unabashed hatred.

Kagome, for her part, was seized by joy. Goodbye, Jacklyn; goodbye Ember. Goodbye to Jacklyn's elegant long legs and Ember's amazing pneumatic chest.

This was going to be a wonderful summer.

Many people thought Kagome and Inuyasha was in a relationship platonic. This wasn't true. Kagome had known for years that she was going to marry him. It was one of her two great ambitions, the other being to see the world she just hadn't gotten around to informing Inuyasha yet. Right now he still thought he liked long-legged girls with salon fingernails and Italian pumps.

"Is that a new CD?" she said, to distract him from his stare out with his future brother-in-law.

Inuyasha hefted it. "It's the new Ethnotechno release."

Kagome cheered. "More Tuva throat singers- I can't wait. Let's go listen to it." But just then her mother walked in. Kagome's mother was cool, blond, and perfect, like an Alfred Hitchcock heroine. She normally wore and expression of effortless efficiency. Kagome, heading out the kitchen, nearly ran into her.

"Sorry- monring!"

"Hold on a minute," Kagome's mother said, getting hold of Poppy by the back of her T-Shirt. "Good morning, Souta; good morning, Inuyasha." she added. Souta said good morning and Inuyasha nodded, ironically polite.

"Has everybody had breakfast?" Kagome's mother asked, and when the boys said they had, she looked at her daughter. "And what about you?" she asked, gazing into Kagome's face.

Kagome rattled the Frosted Flakes box and her mother winced.

"Why don't you put milk on them?"

"Better this way," Kagome said firmly, but when her mother gave her a little push toward the refrigerator, she went and got a quart carton of lowfat milk.

"What are you planning to do with your first day of freedom?" her mother said, glancing from Inuyasha to Kagome.

"Oh, I don't know." Kagome looked at Inuyasha. "We've got all summer."

The summer stretched out in front of Kagome, hot and golden and resplendent. It smelled like pool chlorine and sea salt; it felt like warm grass under her back. Three whole months, she thought. That's forever. Three months is forever.

It was strange that she was actually thinking this when it happened.

"We could check out the new shops at the Village- " she was beginning, when suddenly the pain struck and her breath caught in her throat.

It was bad- a deep, twisting burst of agony that made her double over. The milk carton flew from her fingers and everything went gray.
