Hello! well this is my first time posting a story on But not my first even fanfic. This is an AU story... just a little something I came up with a while back. Posted on another site before hand. I just started working on it again. This is the prologue it gets better after this.
'I think she's coming to. Doctor she's waking up…'
'Think she'll remember it? How will they react when they find out that…'
The voices were what lulled me out of my darkness. They would seem so far away and then get closer. It was like they were there… but not there. I… I don't really know where I am right now, but I sure as hell have one ass-kicking headache. I keep trying to open my eyes but every time I get them opened enough to see the light pours in and everything hurts inside.
'Don't try to hard… it may hurt a bit.'
There's that voice again… Its closer this time, almost like its right beside me. I know this voice though… I think. Or at least I should know it. When I opened my mouth to talk not a thing came out… just a croak. Its kind of embarrassing actually. Maybe if I just licked my lips… They do feel dry.
"Wh-where am I?" Finally success… though it was still scratchy. I tried to open my eyes again but it was still all too bright. There must be a light or something right above my head. Whatever it is its not helping my migraine any. "Its to bright…" Okay so that was clearer.
"Sweetie? Honey how do you feel?" There it is again… but who… mom, mom… maybe she knows what happened.
"Hn… I've felt better. Mama what happened?" I asked. I felt her hand touch my shoulder as if it would easily break. Silence. She didn't answer me. "Mom… mama what happened?" I asked again. I could feel her hand begin to shake. Was she scared? I looked over at her and saw her smile at me. Though she was crying. She looked away then back towards me. Why wouldn't she tell me? I kind of know… I mean I remember being with… oh no. My head shot to the side and a wave of relief passed through me. Okay so they were okay. I could seem Miroku was fine a little bruised but other then that he seemed okay. Sango was still lying in her bed talking to him; Miroku was shaking like a scared puppy. I don't really know why though… Whatever happened must of freaked him out. I sighed knowing they were okay but when I looked for InuYasha he wasn't there. That confused me… he was with us to. Why wasn't he here? "Where's InuYasha? Mom… why isn't he in here too?" The look she gave me scared me… really bad. I only ever remember seeing her look at me like that once before and… oh Kami… This can't be right. "Mom?" She looked away from me. She didn't want to tell me. It… it couldn't possibly be that bad could it? "Mama… please tell me where he is? I want to know."
"Oh sweetie… I'm so sorry." She whispered… I could barely tell what she was saying. I could hear Miroku and Sango stop talking… Then I heard Miroku ask. He didn't know either. The room was quiet… to quiet for my liking. My mom looked back at me. Her eyes were rimmed with tears, but these ones weren't the same as before. They weren't caused by relief they were sad. Really sad and things slowly became clear…
Today was the day that changed my life. It started off like every weekend does. InuYasha comes along with his car. Usually with a bickering Sango and Miroku… Miroku supporting another handprint. InuYasha in the front with a smirk on his face… His silver hair pulled back to a low ponytail so he doesn't have to worry about his hair getting in his eyes. He was just sitting there waiting for me to climb in to the car so we could head off to go do what we loved to do. It was never really anything. Most people would have called it a waist of time. 'You could have got a lot of work done.' They'd say to us. But we never cared. It was like a ritual to us. First we'd all get into his car and drive away from the city. Maybe two hours out. I never really kept track of time. InuYasha would bring us to a small little cabin that his father said he could have before he passed away. It was out hide away. Only we really knew about it… except for some people that might have come across it while wandering through the forest. One we dubbed so to InuYasha. He was one of the only people who ever actually went to it. He loved it there. It was a retreat as you could say. Seeing he didn't have much to look forwards to other then us.
We finally arrived at the cabin and all piled into the house. Miroku brought the food for us this time. Though I can't credit him for being a good cook. Except when his mother does it and he claims to have done it himself. We know the truth but we never tell him. We fixed up the cabin pretty good. Painted it and got some furniture for it. Not to mention the band stuff we brought with us. We'd spend our time practicing away or in the small river not far from it swimming and goofing off. It was warm so we all opted to let the band practice wait for a while. Miroku almost got himself killed to. I'm surprised Sango didn't kill him on the spot when he walked in on her while she was changing. Though he did show up unconscious for a while and a nasty lump was on his head. InuYasha thought it was great. He usually does when it comes to Miroku getting knocked out for his little… 'Ways.' Heh we all love the poor guy really. He just needs to learn is all.
Everything was fine until we decided to head back home. Miroku had to work a night shift and Sango had to go home and look after he brother. I had to get home to though I would have preferred to stay at the cabin that night… InuYasha didn't seem bothered by bringing us home. So once we were all ready and on our way it seemed like we'd be fine. But boy… now I know better then to think that. I sat in the back with Sango and Miroku, after being begged and just about smothered by a frantic Miroku. I acted as a barrier to him and Sango. (Seeing she was still a bit pissed at him for walking in on her. Can't say as I blame her.) InuYasha just laughed it off when that happened. He was always so good at putting on a mask. He acted all happy, worry free, and well a bit rude. But we all saw through that. We could always tell what was bothering on another and we always stood up for each other. Best friends to the end. Nothing would ever separate us… nothing at all. We always had these crazy plans of getting rich and famous together. Or well Miroku anyways he seemed to think it would bring more girls around… Sango didn't appreciate that though. We'd never be apart…
But I guess today was never… because we all lost something today. We lost him. InuYasha. The one who brought us all together? The all-invincible InuYasha we used to call him. But I guess he wasn't any more invincible then anyone else… even if he wasn't human. I remember now what happened… The accident that is. We were all in the car driving without a care in the world. InuYasha always made sure to drive safe. He never wanted us to get hurt. I remember hearing InuYasha curse then holler at us to all hold on. We didn't know what he meant until we saw the car coming at us. He was on our side of the road and going really fast. I watched InuYasha turn the steering wheel to the right quickly trying to swerve out of the way. But he didn't do it on time. It wasn't the first crash that made me pass out though. The car was thrown onto the other side of the road and hit by another car before going into the ditch. It wasn't till after we went in the ditch and I hit my head that I passed out. The last thing I remember seeing was InuYasha unconscious and bleeding in the front. I never expected to hear them say that he was gone… But I guess no one lives forever.
