Preface

It's been so long since my recovery, I still have dreams of what used to be, or at least what I thought used to be. I just can't believe it was all just a dream, my heart numbs up every time I think of him. I can't cry anymore, it's just an empty feeling now, maybe I'm no longer in denial, maybe I finally accepted the truth. Anyway, it doesn't matter I have to get on with my life or else I'll never be able to focus on getting good grades. After all, that's all I have to worry about now.

~ Chapter 1 ~

Wait, What?

"WATCH OUT INUYASHA!" I yelled, gripping on to his red sleeves. A blinding light headed our way.

"STAY BACK YOU'LL ONLY GET US BOTH KILLED!" He shoved me out of the way.

"INUYASHA WAIT!" But it was too late, he dashed into the same direction Naraku's attack was heading. "NO! INUYASHA STOP!" I screamed but he ignored me, Miroku and Sango were holding me back now.

"BACKLASH WAVE!!!" Inuyahsa's Backlash wave sended a sharp light and I squeezed my eyes shut. I felt the pressure of Miroku and Sango's grip loosen off my shoulders and I quickly opened my eyes. There was nothing, no sight of Inuyasha, no sight of anyone or anything. "What the?" All the colors faded away. Where I stood now, right beneath my feet, was a small patch of color, brown, dirt. It was like I was standing in an empty white room. "Inu-Inuyasha?" My breath was but a faint whisper now. And then I suddenly heard voices echoing in this strange room, these voices were familiar but I still couldn't make out the words clearly. It was like my ears were under water. 'Just what were these voices just now? What's happening?'

"Kagome?"

"Kagome?"

"Kagome?"

"Meow?"

Each voice was different in their familiar way.

"Oh my, she's awake! Grandpa! Souta! Kagome is awake!"

"Mom...Grandpa? Souta? Wait, what's going on? Where am I? What am I doing here? Where is Inuyasha? Where, where is he?"

"Kagome, Kagome oh we missed you so much, we're so glad you're awake!" Mom rushed in to hug me but I was still so confused, 'Just what am I doing here?' "Oh Kagome, you don't remember do you?" I looked up at her, "Remember what?!" I demanded but half of my mind was wondering where Inuyasha was. I looked at my surroundings, pale blue walls with light brown doors, wide windows with pastel colored curtains. Besides me was a plain white drawer with a small round vase of bright pink carnations. "Am I in a hospital room?" Grandpa was first to grab me, "Oh Kagome my dear grandchild, it was so horrifying! We though we lost you!" Both of his hands were shaking while holding onto mine. Mom dragged her chair closer to me. "Let me remind you, on your 15th birthday, dear Hojo…"

"Hojo!?!"

"…dear Hojo took you to a carnival. You both went on a roller-coaster ride but, it malfunctioned and it increased in speed, then the belts became loose, you and everyone else on the ride were holding on to dear life, some people couldn't hold on any longer, but Hojo was helping you stay in your seat while he was hanging on at the same time. Suddenly the roller-coaster stopped midway on a loop and that was when it happened. You fell out of your seat and dangled there hanging on to him while he was hanging on to you…"

"…wait are you serious, how did Ho-...."

"…Hojo already had a strong grip on the seat belts; because when it came undone his body was tangled up, therefore keeping himself completely safe. You eventually slid out of his grasp though and…. and well landed on one of the railings thankfully…but your head jolted back from the fall and hit one of the metal bars….leading to your coma." Her voice was uneasy when she retraced the incident.

"C-coma? I-I was in a c-coma? For how long?"

"About a year sis." Souta interrupted.

"No, no none of this makes sense, where's Inuyasha? Where is he, I need to see him, he can't fight Naraku on his own, I need to help him! Where's is Inuyasha? Miroku? Sango? Shippou? Kirara..."

"Kagome! What's with you? Are you feeling alright, who are these people you keep naming?" Mom was not as nearly confused as I was. Souta came around my other side, "Umm sis, maybe you should rest some more." Buuyo was clawing at the bed and Grandpa picked him up and placed him on my lap. "Ohh Buuyo." I tweaked his ear. My mind instantly flashed back to him, "Inuyasha!" Mom, Souta and Grandpa looked at me like I was talking in another language. "Who is this Inuyasha person?" Grandpa questioned, squinting his left eye as if he was trying to read my mind. "Did you have any dreams…?"

"No, it can't be can it. All this time, it was just a…"

"Just a…what Kagome?"

"A, A DREAM?!?!?" My voice started braking up, and my eyes moistened. I threw off the blankets, but I was too weak to rise up. I just lied there now crying. Mom grabbed the blankets and covered me up. Everyone's expressions were different, mom looked like she was about to yell for the doctor, Souta stared at me like I was an alien, and grandpa, well it looked like he was about to bring in an exorcist so he changed the subject.
"Oh Hojo missed you quite a bit Kagome." I looked at him, "Ho…"

"Oh that reminds me…" Mom reached for her bulky cell-phone from her purse. "I should call and tell him that your awake, after all he is your boyfriend." My eyes grew big. The tears stopped. "BOYFRIEND?????!!!!!"

"Hello, Hojo? I have tremendous news, yes, Kagome's awake!!!" She paused and closed her phone smiling. "Oh he is so excited he hung up, he's probably on his way." Her smile grew so big that it began to creep me out.

Then as we sat there in awkward silence I looked out the window besides me, 'Inuyasha….'
