Okay, so I started writing this at midnight so I don't know if it's good or not, tell me what you guys think ;)
"That'll be Twelve-fifty ma'am" The cab driver switched off the engine and turned to face me in the back seat.
Ma'am? Since when did I become a 'ma'am'? I just turned 19! Eugh, I miss the Feudal Era
"Here you go" I passed him the money and exited the car, retrieving my luggage from the trunk and hurrying to the door through the pouring rain.
I took in one deep breathe to calm my nerves and knocked on the wooden door.
"Amy!"
"Mum!" I embraced my mother in a warm hug
"Come on! Get out of the rain, I'll warm the kettle and you can tell me why you're here" My mother hurried me into the house and ran into the kitchen. I dumped my suitcases on the couch and walked towards the heating system, turning it up as far as it can go. Beside the dial was the old, large bookshelf that held our photo albums and year books. Sitting on the second highest shelf was a portrait of my grandfather, mother, Kagome and Sota. Grandfather and mother hadn't changed at all. Sota had grown so much more than I'd thought was possible in the last two years I'd been gone. Kagome was thirteen when I'd last seen her, she'd grown a lot as well, her legs were longer, as was her hair.
"Is anyone else home?" I yelled to my mother as I returned to the couch
"No, sorry sweetie. Your grandfather went to visit his old friends, Bradley and Jera, Sota's at school and Kagome, well… we'll talk about her." My mother re-appeared with two coffees.
"Thanks mum. What aren't you telling me about Kagome?"
"Well.." She spoke hesitantly, gesturing for me to sit "Your sister…discovered the well's secret a few months ago, in truth, she's there now. She-"
"SHE WHAT? I told you, it's not safe there, Why did you let her go?"
"Settle. She came across the well by accident, when I found out she'd been there she told all of us. I promised you I would never tell Gramps, Sota or Kagome your experience there, it left me in a tough position" I inhaled deeply to hold back the tears threatening to spill.
"She'll get hurt"
"She's okay, she has a nice boy that looks after her-"
"So did I, it didn't stop me from getting hurt"
"I know. But this one has managed to keep her out of harm's way so far. He's name's Inuyasha-"
"Inuyasha!? Mum…. Inuyasha, translation Dog Demon. That information isn't exactly comforting"
My mother carried on as if I didn't interrupt her "She says that once she finishes her little quest there she'll be back to school as normal. It wouldn't be fair if I stopped her, I never stopped you."
"What.quest?" I spoke through my teeth
" She says she has to help fix a jewel she broke" I exhaled in relief "And help Inuyasha kill a demon…Neroku? No…umm…what was the name?"
"Naraku?" My nails sliced tensely into the lining of the couch
"Yes, that was the name"
"MUM! She can't be around NARAKU! He'll kill her, he'll kill everyone she loves, please! Get her to come back" I sobbed
"You know I can't go down the well Amy"
"Well I guess I will" I stood up angrily making my way towards the well.
"Amy this is completely irrational, come back here so we can-" I slammed the back door on my mother and ran to the well through the pouring rain. I ran into the room and closed the door behind me, leaning against it for support as I cried. I slid my body roughly into a sitting position and cradled my head with my hands. The sobs jerked at my chest, but I couldn't find a way to stop them. I cried for hours, I cried for me, I cried for Kagome, and I cried for Demyx.
So, What do you guys think? Tell me if i should continue. Reviews will be appreciated!
Thankyou!
