An A.U.Story

Kagome blinked sighing; she had just awoken from a newly reoccurring dream. In her dream there was always a dark figure running through what looked like a forest and then being pinned to a tree. The most vivid thing that clung to her memory was a pair of deep no almost electric violet eyes that made one think of a violent lightning storm, and hair the color of darkness. Not the comforting sort of darkness but the kind where it wraps around you shrouding the air in mystery of things that could happen…. Good or bad things.

She yawned once and got up glancing at her alarm clock, muttering softly she'd be late for class once again. Throwing on her clothes she headed out the door calling her goodbyes to her family. On her way out the door she paused and looked over at the ancient tree that had stood in the yard even before her family was born. Today it seemed the tree was different, it was blooming. She made her way over to the tree and gazed at it.

Reaching up she took hold of a blossom, "Why are you blooming?" She questioned softly letting go of the flower and watching as the wind took hold of it. "Crap I'm so late for class now." She groaned taking off at a run. She never noticed the vines loosening on the tree and what was once bound and hidden now something that now could plainly be seen.

Hours later when Kagome headed back from school she paused at the top of the steps to her family's magnificent shrine; she closed her eyes thinking of the history that it held. Suddenly remembering about the tree she ran towards it dropping her book bag as she ran. Her steps slowed as she realized that there was a body held against the tree. She reached up and touched it surprised that it was still warm, as though it had just happened. Tilting her head in curiosity she brushed a few strands of hair away from the eyes and then realized there was an arrow in the body's chest.

Closing her hand around the arrow she tugged gently closing her eyes. The arrow disappeared the moment she began to tug. She gasped as the body slid down the tree into a sitting/laying position. "Oh what am I to do now?" She asked herself softly, as she ran her fingers through the person's hair. Realization began to slowly set in; the hair was the same color as the figure in her dream. An unexpected urge to kiss the person came over her and she leaned forwards kissing the soft lips gently.

The person moved a bit and opened its eyes, the same familiar violet as in Kagome's dream. "What happened? Where am I?" Kagome blinked and opened her mouth to speak when the person sat up straight staring at her, "You!" Kagome stood up and stared down "Me?"
