A/N- This is my first fanfic ever, and I thought this would be a pretty
interesting idea. It is a crossover between Inuyasha and the movie Jeepers
Creepers. I posted it on another site, but it was not appreciated there.
This is my first fic, so please give me as much feedback as possible.
Please review it as well. I need to know if anyone likes it, so I can
continue. Thnx!!
WARNING! Jeepers Creepers is a horror movie, and this fic will include some scenes of extreme gore and violence. If reading such things makes you queasy, then please Turn Back Now! As for the rest of you, on with the fic!
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, the movie Jeepers Creepers, or any characters from either franchise. I do however own my own characters, and reserve the right to maim, and dismember them.
Kagome knew this place. She recognized it as the park a few blocks down the street from her shrine. Although her memories of the place were bright and happy, she couldn't shake the feeling that it appeared ominous in the thick darkness. She couldn't quite figure out exactly why she was in the park in the middle of the night. The last she had remembered, she was asleep in her own bed at home.
She suddenly squinted her eyes as she noticed the shapes of people come into focus. A lone teenage girl was walking through the park with her arms folded. A boy appeared who followed her quickly, trying to catch up to the obviously miffed girl.
Her demeanor amusedly reminded Kagome of how she stalked off after one of her fights with Inuyasha. The girl's pace quickened in fear when she heard someone following her, but after realizing who it was, her fear quickly became agitation.
She looked at the boy with anger in her eyes and venomously spat, "Why are you following me Ryou!?"
The boy Ryou seemed a bit taken aback by her harsh tone of voice, and responded a bit angrily, " Oh cut it out Sakura! You're not really angry at me are you?" However, the look the girl gave him, told him otherwise. "You know I would never actually do that don't you?" He continued in a soft voice. "I would never do anything to hurt you in any way." He then cautiously took a step in her direction. At this, Sakura took a few steps back, angrily shaking her head back and forth.
"You're lying!" She cried to him, tears brimming her flashing eyes. "Amori- chan told me she saw you walking with Yuki in the mall last Saturday. She said you two were looking at jewelry together! You've never done anything with her up to this point, and now all of a sudden she's one of your 'good friends'?"
At this statement Ryou got a very guarded look on his face. He didn't want Sakura to know that he had been getting tips from Yuki lately about their relationship, since he was quite clueless, and what he should get her(Sakura) for her birthday next week. He had never felt this way about any other girl, and wanted her gift to be very special. That day Yuki and he had been browsing through the mall, looking for possible gift choices, when he had found the perfect thing. It was a solid gold heart shaped locket with the words, 'Yours forever' engraved on the back. He planned to put the picture of their very first kiss, taken by his sneaky little brother, inside of it.
Kagome's eyes sparkled at the romantic gesture, but she was suddenly pulled back to reality when she realized, 'I could understand what he was thinking!' Although she found their conversation to be very interesting, Kagome's thoughts were abruptly interrupted when she sensed the presence of a dark force nearby. She instinctively shuddered at the feel of so much evil, and as if she had known it was there, she looked up into the treetops above. The sight that met her chilled her very blood, and placed a look of abject horror on her face.
Unknown to the two bickering youths below, it perched on a thick branch directly above their heads. Kagome had no idea what it was, but just the sight of it filled her very soul with a thick, primordial fear. It was hideous. Although it was the shape and size of a man, the similarities ended there. It had skin of a putrid green color, covered from head to toe in thick scales. It was wearing a tattered trench coat and hat with a wide brim, and what appeared to be large folded wings protruded out the back. It smelled strongly of death, and decayed corpses. It smiled in the darkness, and she noticed rows upon rows of long sharp fangs lined its mouth. As she peered up into its fanged grin, words suddenly appeared in her startled mind.
'Every twenty-third spring,'
'For twenty-three days,'
'It gets. to eat.'
"Eat what?" Kagome absentmindedly said to herself. She again looked up into the face of the monster, wondering exactly what it got to eat. As she peered up into its cruel eyes more words flashed in her mind,
'No one knows what it is exactly, or from what dark place in time this . Creeper heralds from'
'Just know that it will never die, nor will its hunger ever be abated'
As Kagome pondered these thoughts in her head, her gaze was again brought to the figure, this Creeper, in the trees, and what she heard of his thoughts, sickened her.
He could smell it. The boy was terrified. Terrified that he might lose this girl before him. The smell of his fear was exquisite. He let the intoxicating odor fill his every pore, filling him with that unstoppable insatiable hunger. He needed to feed. And what he smelled in this boy's fear, told him he had exactly what he needed.
Kagome was confused by the creature's thoughts. 'What does fear have anything to do with its hunger?' She didn't know if it was brought on by her own musings, or if it was the will of another, but words again filled her mind.
'It has to scare you.' 'Because it can smell something in a person's fear'
'Through their fear, it can smell what it is in them that it wants to eat.'
'It needs to feed to survive, so it eats what it needs most.'
'It eats lungs so it can breathe, eyes so it can see, and hearts so it can live'
'It will never sleep, or stop until it has what it wants.' 'It just can't help itself'
Kagome was horrified by this revelation and tried to cry out a warning to the teens, but it fell on deaf ears. She again looked up at the monster and saw it lick its lips in anticipation before swooping in for the kill.
It all happened so fast, that neither Ryou nor Sakura knew what happened until it was too late. The Creeper swooped in directly behind the boy, and thrust his claws through his exposed back. He relished in the feel of his claws tearing through tender flesh, and grinned at the horrified girl before him as his hand burst from the boy's ribcage, gripping his prize in his clenched fist. All Ryou could do was stare dumbly in shock as the blood flowed from his mouth down his chin. He looked down and saw a hand protruding from his chest, gripping what appeared to be one of his lungs in its bloody fist. He looked into the face of the girl before him, tears brimming his own eyes. He knew he was going to die, and the only thing he could think about was how much he was going to miss the stubborn girl before him.
The last words he ever spoke, before succumbing to the dark, was a feeble "run". He then collapsed to the ground, a small pool of blood forming around his still body.
Sakura watched in disbelief as her love collapsed to the ground, his words not even registering in her mind until she saw what the thing did with his prize. He had eaten Ryou's lung, and was now convulsing in either pain or pleasure, emitting horrible sounds as it absorbed the flesh. She took this opportunity to heed Ryou's words, and took off at a dead sprint, fueled by the will to live.
Once the rapture of the kill had subsided, the Creeper grinned at the fleeing girl's actions. He did not even take a single step towards her as he calmly reached into the folds of his jacket, producing a small sharp object in his hand.
That was all Kagome's numb mind could determine before she saw him, in one graceful motion, throw the object in the direction of the fleeing girl. It spun like a demonic shuriken as it sailed through the darkness. He smiled again when he heard the thick sound of confirmation as the weapon finally reached its target.
Kagome ran blindly towards the girl, tears streaming down her face as her form came into view. She was lying face-down in the grass, the bladed weapon protruding from the back of her skull. Kagome hit her knees at the sight, her body racking with sobs. All she could do was chant over and over in her head, 'this isn't real, this isn't happening. Things like this don't happen in my time, only in Inuyasha's. I'll wake up in my bed and everything will be back to normal. This is all just a horrible nightmare.'
She turned her head at the sound of movement, and saw the thing kneeling down by the girl's body. He bent down and took the dead girl in his arms. As he straightened he unfurled his bat-like wings, and with one powerful thrust he took off into the air, and after a moment, disappeared into the night.
Unable to hold it in any longer, Kagome clenched her fists and screamed at the top of her lungs, over and over again. The last thing she remembered before blacking out were the words that again entered her mind,
'Every twenty-third spring'
'for twenty-three days'
'it gets to eat'
'today is the first day.'
She gasped as she sat bolt-upright in her bed. The images of the dream flashed through her mind as she tried to comprehend where she was. Suddenly, the harsh presence of light made itself known, and Kagome blearily looked up into the face before her. Relief flooded her system at the sight of her mother's concerned face, and she realized that she must have been screaming in her sleep. She just clung to her mother, burying her face in the shoulder of her robe as the tears again came to her eyes. But these were tears of relief, as she realized that it really had been just a nightmare. Probably brought on by her constant encounters with demons in the Sengoku-Jidai. But this false hope began to crumble as she remembered those last thoughts. It was the first day. 'No! That was just a nightmare! It can't be real, can it?'
A/N So? What did you think? Good? Bad? Horrible? Please share your thoughts with me about my fic. Praise is always welcomed, as well as criticism, as long as it is CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, and not mad rants or death threats. If people like the story I will continue it. Inuyasha will make his debut in the next chapter if this is the case. Thnx!!
