To Be All Alone
Chapter 1
Inuyasha sat silently in a tree. To anyone else he looked as if he were diligently gazing at the waning moon, but that was only to the untrained eye. To a girl named Kagome Higurashi, Inuyasha was sleeping, sleeping in a not so peaceful sleep.
Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
His breathing was heavy and his footsteps were light. He ran across the bridge chasing after a ball. He kept running and running, but he never caught up to the ball.
BOUNCE!
BOUNCE!
His small ball bounced up and into a circle of noblemen. Adult noblemen. Inuyasha jumped around the inside of their cruel circle, trying desperately to retain his ball. The noblemen kept laughing and bumping it into the air.
"Half breed." That was all that could be heard beneath their heartless snickers.
After what seemed like a lifetime to the young hanyou, his ball was bumped out the circle and back across the bridge. Inuyasha faithfully chased after his ball, and this time he caught it.
"Half breed." Those words echoed in his head. He turned around to see the noblemen returning to what ever they were doing before their little "interruption". Tears welled up in the young hanyou's honey coloured eyes.
BOUNCE!
Inuyasha dropped his ball. He ran. His breathing was heavy and his footsteps were light. He ran, ran in his mother's open arms.
Do you ever wanna run away?
Do you lock yourself in you room?
With the radio turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming
Inuyasha felt his mother's arms wrap themselves lovingly around his small body.
"Mom," he started, looking up to see tears threatening to fall. "What's a… a half breed?" His mother's tears slid gracefully down her cheek. She smiled…
Lightning flashed in the sky. Inuyasha looked up at his human mother.
"Mom?" Her eyes were closed.
"My dear Inuyasha. A half breed is…" Her face morphed to that of Naraku's. "…is your downfall." A claw plunged into Inuyasha's chest. He blinked out of surprise.
Fire blazed around him. He was back to his normal height and age. Inuyasha looked around. He saw the lifeless, bloodied bodies of Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kaede and… Kagome.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled. Naraku laughed evilly.
"Kagome!"
"She can't hear your screams." Naraku pulled his hand out of Inuyasha's body. "She's already dead. Foolish half breed."
"Kagome!"
No you don't know what it's likeWhen nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like to be like me
Inuyasha's honey gaze snapped open. His forehead was drenched in sweat. Holy shit! He thought, finding out that he was precariously balancing on the limb. Any more of that dream and I would've fallen out. He looked over at Kaede's hut. From there he could see Miroku's, Sango's, Kaede's, and, thankfully, Kagome's shadows dancing along the wooden walls.
That ass hole hentai. Inuyasha shook his head as he watched the shadows of the two girls' fists collide with the monk's head.
"Damn hentai!" Sango yelled. Inuyasha's ears clearly picked that up.
"Will he ever learn?" Shippo asked Kaede in an exasperated tone. Inuyasha turned his focus bad to the night sky. His dream had only lasted minutes, seeing that is was only slightly darker. But to the troubled hanyou, it felt like hours of prolonged agony.
To be hurtTo be lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around.
To be on the edge of breaking down
When no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Inuyasha pulled his knees up and buried his face in his hands.
Damn. He thought. Even when Kagome's around, why do I feel so alone? He felt sudden tears welling up in his eyes. Hastily, he wiped them away and returned to gazing at the moon, unbeknownst of the young miko watching him from a window.
Welcome to my lifeInuyasha slowly closed his eyes and put his arms behind his head. Within moments, sleep overtook him, and another dream caught him in its twisted web.
