A/N: I'm back!
New Life For A Miko and Hanyou
Chapter 1
Kagome got home from the Feudal Era. She opened the sliding glass door and stepped into the kitchen. "I'm home." She said. There was no answer. Kagome looked around the house, but no one was home. She sensed something was unusual and it felt completely wrong. She brushed it off, thinking that they had all gone shopping or something. She went in her room, setting down her large yellow backpack, and collapsed onto her bed. 'They'll be back by the time I wake up.' With that, Kagome fell asleep.
Kagome's eyes slowly peeked open. She looked over at her clock. 'Wow . . . it's been three hours?' She stood up. The house was still silent.
"Mom? Souta? Grandpa?" she called in vainly. There was no answer. Kagome went into the kitchen. 'Where could they be?' The phone began to ring. Kagome stared at the phone. She had a feeling in the pit of her stomach that it wasn't good. It rang again. She, reluctantly, walked over to the phone.
"Hello?"
"Kagome. Thank god you're back. You need to come to the hospital." Souta said from the other end of the phone. His normally childish and playful voice held a tone of panic and sadness.
"What's wrong?" Kagome said, urgently into the phone.
"I'll explain when you get here. Just come quickly." Kagome nodded, even though Souta couldn't see it.
"Okay. I'll be there. Meet me at the front entrance."
"I'll try. Bye."
"Bye."
Kagome, immediately, rushed to the front door and began to run to the hospital. Eventually, she made it there. She looked around to see Souta, waving widely at the front entrance on crutches. She went over to him.
"Souta, what happened?" she asked as she looked at his leg.
"Kagome, let's go inside." He said quietly as he began to move toward the door Kagome followed closely behind him. They went into a private room.
"What's up, Souta? You've been blocking me out."
"Gramps, mom, and I were going to the store, but we got into an accident."
"What accident?"
"A car accident." He gasped as he swallowed hard.
"Is everyone okay?" Souta pulled a newspaper clipping out of his pocket and handed to her. Kagome saw the headline and began to shake.
Three Car Pile Up; Only One Survivor
Kagome looked up at Souta. "You're the survivor?" Souta nodded slowly, as a tear ran down his cheek.
"Mom and Grandpa died instantly." He croaked out. Kagome hugged Souta as a tear began to roll down her cheek.
"Have you read the article?" Souta shook his head.
"I don't want to." Kagome nodded.
"I understand." Kagome took a deep breath. She opened the newspaper. She saw the picture on the front page of the accident. She saw their SUV. The whole front was smashed inward. A small Buick was on top of the car. Kagome crumpled the paper in her hand. She looked at Souta.
"What are we going to do now, sis?"
"I don't know, Souta. I don't know."
Okay. I'm back people. Sorry about taking so long. Anyways, I'm going to TRY to update on this every two weeks. Review if you wanna.
