Kagome's Torture
Silence filled the air. Faint ragged breathing was all that could be heard. Even a youkai couldn't hear it unless they were a few meters away.
Kagome continued to wander across the vast fields of nothingness. Crimson poured from her chest, leaving behind a trail as her heart continued struggling to beat. Loneliness, Regret, Hatred, and Pain. All of them lodged into her mind.
InuYasha had left her once more, in attempt to search for Kikyo. Kagome shuddered as she remembered the name. For as long as she'd known, InuYasha would go to look for her, but every other time he would rescue her. This time was different…
The wounds covering her body were all caused by Naraku. He had kidnapped her and brought her to his castle, where he tortured her. Not the usual torturing where he would look into her soul, no. This time, he physically hurt her.
She had managed to escape thanks to Kagura. Even she couldn't stand to see Kagome in that state: chained up against the blood-splattered stone walls.
Thank you Kagura…
Kagome suddenly collapsed onto her knees as she came into realization that Kagura would suffer for her actions. Tears began flooding down her face, caused by pain and sadness.
Around her was nothing, only the red crimson swirls of her blood and a faint light she had been following to the West.
Where's InuYasha? She choked, blood and tears preventing her from speaking.
Her mind swirled with pain; she knew he wouldn't come this time. Yet her mind wouldn't stop.
"He's not coming do you understand." Replied a familiar voice, yet sounding so far away.
Finally, she understood. InuYasha wouldn't save her this time. Before blacking out, the last thing she saw were golden-orbs, staring down at her with only the slightest recognition of pity and concern.
(Author's Note: Well. I hope you like the first chapter. Wondering who it is? Well, guess right and get a cookie.)
Without pain, there would be no suffering, without suffering we would never learn from our mistakes. To make it right, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, without it, there is no way of life. –Angelina Jolie
