Misplaced by Time
Chapter One
Placed Within Unexpected Silence
By Inuyashas Youkai
"We don't exist unless we are deeply and sensually in touch withthat which can be touched but not Is Not the power to remember, but its very opposite, the power to forget, is a necessary condition for our existence .The cradle rocks above an abyss, and common sense tells us that our existence is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness. "
A girl standing in the window that she frequently stared overlooking the vast wilderness that lay just beyond her back door,while the night's guardian rose to greet the day's goodess in farewell. The girl ,chen jiu Takara ,wasn't positive why she was drawn to the simple but enduring sight being played for her as it had since she was much longer ,nor the reasons that she longed and felt safest within the lushest green of a Sakura tree. Although the picture of the small gesture in greeting was nothing more than a regular occurance that happened but in reality it was so much more as it seemed to pull her into herself hiding from a unknown distant pain that either she dreamt or from a forgotten memory.
Takara was a fairly happy ,outgoing and atttrative was not that this knowledge was bestowed upon the young women. nor that she'd know it herself with her slender form, brown dow eyes ,midnight waves cascading over her ,and spilling over the small of her back .
Although she did well in school and got along with many of her close friends as peers,but underneath her happy exterior hid a deeper sorrow ,and that a few others being lucky to see past the walls she placed within herself could only see restrained pain. By nightfall would end just before sunrise awakening the fragile form cocooned within the cave made by blankets of her own design to escape the fear that haunted her subconscious. Like clockwork, just before the sun began to wake she was always conscious to wait for the sight that wished to play for her and everytime her eyes shown unshed tears from the restless sleep with the trails of salt marring her face when she woke.
Everyday was the same and that same event marked the beginning of the day, where she readied for school ,went to her classes , breezed through her homework ,and visited with her friends When the day was done she often assisted her family at home to busy herself to occupy the thoughts and fears from the ghost within her mind from evading her. Completely exhausted when she finally would collapse,forced asleep at the of the day with a sheet of red that blurred her vision obscuring it,just before her eyes fluttered closed.
~ Beyond The Well ~
A impatient hanyou was waiting for the return of his miko friend ,Kagome and his unrequited love,or so he believed. Three days had already passed .the fourth was soon ending to only prove to the girl's defiance once again. Stange though because this occurance hadn't happened for a while now and now that it was happening worried him all the more. Inuyasha had planned to travel back shortly after the third day had ended as he normally had inn the past ,but with a unexpected run in with his brother Sesshomeru ,and lastly Naraku ,it was temporary forgotten with the hopes she would soon return.
Needless to say that the guarded plea was unanswered and not followed as the hanyou only wished to be. Tonight was decided on the fourth day to be when he would venture back to her time to retrieve the wench. After nightfall casted its hues of darkness amongst the shadows of the trees ,Inuyasha began his trek towards the clearing where the well was made to be it's home,and to the place where he could decend into the threads of time to make it once again to his onna. Just before breaking the invisible fence within the trees a onmious weight fell just past his shoulders to skim down his back and that slightly rose the delicate hairs on the back of his neck on end .
Soon after a brush of light, following a explosion of crimson and cerelian light joined from the depths of the well, crept it's way casting itself into the atmosphere. The Inu Hanyou felt a uncontrol shiver whisper its way down the taunt and stiff stance that he had instinctively chose. Momentarily the blinding light dimmed to nothing and any other proof towards the odd phenomenon had long since left the vacinity,leaving only a maddened hanyou by his beast emerging slowly to make its presence known,and a slight glow to the well. In the short amount of time that he stood frozen still gave to the strict will to remove any doubts that the onna was indeed safe,and to relive the nawing within his gut saying the opposite,and it was that she was nothing but. With quickened steps ,Inuyasha rushed to close the distance towards the well ,and with some resistance from the weakened barrier with the swipe of his fang,in the end all that kept him from Kagome now was stripped bare.
~ Truth From Within It's Depths~
' It seems I have let you go ..It seems I 've misunderstood as to where you are'
Once the hanyou was haphazardly thrown from the depths of the mysterious well ,The Bone Well, which at this point was proven to only confirm the hanyou's fears. Slowly lifting to stand from the awkward position that Inuyasha was carelessly tossed into ,to stand and investigate with scutiny as to the reasons of which things were occurring.A whined roar broke through ,echoing of the clearing that seemed to stretch miles,where the shrine once stood was now a bare expanse compared to the whispers to what it had been. Inuyasha ,desvastation and worry weakening his form too greatly to remain standing, fell to his knees with the silent tears that fell second to the roars the spilt forth from his lips. Amber eyes tauntingly glaring at everything and no one ,alert to his likely unknown threat hiding in the shadows and invisible with that on his grasp on reality,as crimson bled through his honey depths in fury, and signifying the release of it's feral beast..
' Kagome , where are you?'
