Sleepless: Chapter one

Yea olde inn

"Help" The young teen screamed, her kimono was torn and she was bleeding from her shoulder. Only minutes earlier she had noticed a presence following her, when she looked to see who it was, she noticed a cloaked figure. It only took a second before she realized that she should be running away not staring at it. She was running as fast as she could but the figure was much faster then she was. It was catching up really fast and she could not do anything about it. Things in her village had been getting weird lately. A lot of unexplained deaths had taken place. Now she knew that this 'thing' had been causing the deaths all along. The girl ran faster but soon she felt her legs give out. She fell to the ground. Within milliseconds the figure was kneeling over her. The figure uncloaked itself. The girl looked up into the figures face and realized it was a small child. A little girl with fiery orange hair that was long and left loose. The child had pale skin, but what really startled the young teen was the child's eyes. They were purple, and had no pupil. The young child lifted her hands above the teen. The teen knew this was the end, and prepared herself for pain. None came. Darkness started to overtake her. The teen looked up at the child and said "Th-this is... just a ...b-bad dream" The child smiled an evil smile and answered "yes it is, but you won't be waking up from this one." With that the child got up and vanished. Leaving the teen to die painless, but alone.

"Hey wench get up" Inu Yasha shouted at Kagome. "Sit boy" She replied. With that Inu Yasha found himself kissing dirt. What was that for?" he asked. She just mumbled something about not being able to teach old dogs new tricks and walked off to find a place to change... away from the lecherous monk's peeping eyes. Inu Yasha rolled his eyes. Miroku, seeing this stated that he might want to be nicer to Kagome if he ever wanted her to be his mate. Inu Yasha turned red with anger and yelled "I don't like her that way you leach"

Soon they were all on the road headed towards the next jewel shard. After about two hours they saw a small village. There was an unsettling silence over it. They entered the village and joined a huge gathering by a large hut. "The lord's daughter is dead!! THE LORD'S DAUGHTER WAS THE NEXT VICTIM!!" Some old man yelled. "WERE DOOMED, WE HAVE NO PROTECTION NOW." Inu yasha and Kagome made their way over to the old man. "What happened here?" Kagome asked. The old man answered her. "Lately there has been many killings in this village, strangely there seems to be no cause for it. The person just goes to sleep, and in the morning we find them dead. The lords daughter was protecting us with a spell but she took ill and became weak. The killer immediately killed her so that she could not get better and reactivate her spell. Nobody else knows it. Were doomed!" Inu Yasha and Kagome extanged worried looks. "Maybe we should stay and help these people." Kagome suggested. "Helping people, again?" Inu Yasha grumbled.

The small child had just taken care of that no good witch girl. She was heading for another victim when a man with long black hair jumped in front of her "Are you Kalia the dream demon?" he asked in the evilest voice Kalia had ever heard. "Maybe.... Who is askin'?" She looked at him suspiciously. No one had ever managed to find her, mainly because she hid in peoples dreams. "Naraku." "Never heard of ya before" Kalia stated. "Have an interesting proposition for you. I want you to kill a mortal girl for me." He told her "sounds easy enough." She said. "However I don't work for anyone." "That's funny because I have a feeling that you might change your mind." With that he pulled a bewitched jewel shard out o his robes. Kalia's eyes grew wide "I'll do it" she agreed.

Two hours later the old man and his wife had brought Shippo, Myoga, Inu Yasha, Kagome, Miroku, Sango, and Kilala to their home. It was a large hut with an old peeling sign that read ' The Inn'. The old couple introduced themselves as The Motos. They set up a side of the hut for the group of friends. Within minutes all of them were comfortable and fast asleep.
