It was a quiet afternoon at the Shikon University in Tokyo.

It was the day before spring break, and just after a rainstorm.

Inuyasha Tama had just graduated out of high school and settled quickly into college.

He had been so involved in his work that he hardly had any time for friends and such.

Of course he'd shout a hi or two to them in the hall, but after classes he would lock himself in his dorm and study quietly, while his roommate Miroku was always out partying and flirting with older and younger women.

Inuyasha always remembered Miroku to be that way, at least, ever since he met him in eighth grade.

Miroku had short black hair, slender build, puppy brown eyes, and a hand with a mind of its own. Often, Inuyasha would find Miroku with a red burning handprint on his face.

As for Inuyasha, he also had a slender build, but he liked to think he had a bit more muscle then Miroku. Golden brown eyes, two long tendrils of bangs in the front with spikes in the back. All silver.

Inuyasha never really thought much of himself, but he did seem to catch unwanted glances once in a while from a couple of the uptight girls in college.

Miroku almost died of laughter when Inuyasha had told him that he'd never been on a date in his life.

"How can you pass up such a thing, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked, his brown eyes flashing with impulsive shock.

"I don't know," Inuyasha replied dubiously. "I guess I've just been so caught up in getting good grades that the thought never really passed my mind." That night Inuyasha lay awake in bed, listening to Miroku's soft snoring and the light scratching of a tree branch against his dorm window.

He really never thought about dating, but it's not like he passed up the whole conflict. Inuyasha knew that someday he would find the right girl for him. Or, hopefully she would find him.

So with that settled he closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep.

"Wake up sleep head, It's spring break!" Miroku yelled cheerfully as he pulled away Inuyasha's bed back later." Inuyasha replied distantly, his voice muffled from sleeping face first on his pillow.

"Aw, Come on Inuyasha! You know what spring break means!" Miroku whined, his puppy dog eyes absorbed in something only he could see.

Inuyasha knew everything Miroku was about to tell him. From the last Pepsi can to the very first dip in the cool beach water.

So instead of going through the same spring break pep talk Miroku always gave him, Inuyasha anxiously sat up and reached out one hand on his night stand to steady himself as he stood up.

Minutes passed and Inuyasha still stood halfway up, holding onto the nightstand with Miroku impatiently peering over his shoulder.

"Well.....are you coming or not?"

Inuyasha's eyes snapped open as he realized he had fallen asleep again. Only this time he'd had the most peculiar dream.

There was this pirate ship that was floating among the clouds, and standing on the deck of the ship, holding onto the mast was a beautiful and mysterious looking young woman. She was dressed in what it looked like to be either deer or lion skin, form fitting to show off her curvy build.

Her intimidating brown eyes were like two shards of amber. The young woman had raven black hair that sort of reminded Inuyasha of a cascading waterfall.

In his short dream she turned and looked at him, mouthing the word Kagome which he thought to be her name.

Now normally Inuyasha isn't to good with reading lips, but somehow he heard it in his head, and it left itself dangling around his mind as he awoke.

"Kagome." Inuyasha said aloud as he stood up straight, turning and staring into Miroku's eyes.

"Who's Kagome? Inuyasha, did you meet a woman and forget to tell me?!" Miroku asked heartbroken.

"No, Of course not! I don't know who she is, but she was in my dream." Inuyasha replied dreamily as he walked over to his dresser, pulled out some clothes, and slammed the bathroom door shut behind him.

"Hmm," Miroku pondered while rubbing his chin. "maybe I should of let him sleep in a bit longer."
