Memories of a Priestess

This is going to be a collection of drabbles featuring the Lady Kikyou. Ratings will vary so I'll be placing it under T for now.

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or its characters.


Ghost

She would not look at the faces of the villagers. It brought too many awful insatiable memories to her mind that she couldn't handle any longer than when they took place.

Blood and tears soaked those of the young and helpless. Families were broken apart and homes were nothing but a vague recollection.

It was all a burning memory that seared her heart.

The day that her life ended was not when her heart stopped beating from the blood loss, but from it stopped beating at the sight of who had murdered her villagers.

And it continued to burn, the squelching fire continuing to circle the fatal wound in her heart.

Kikyou had died that day and resurrected only to walk in the shadow of what she once was.

The ghost of a woman who just wished to live.
