-----------------------------------------------

What Happened!

What a pretty flower. Kagome thought. Such a pretty flower.

Kagome lifted her head; she was in the woods surrounded by trees and singing birds. She was just close enough to the edge of the woods that she could see Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha talking to a villager. Sango would like this flower Kagome stood up and stretched.

"HEY SANGO!" She called to her friend. Sango looked over and smiled.

"WHAT KAGOME?" Sango shouted back. She started to walk over to Kagome.

"I found a flower, do you want it?"

she said when Sango got close.

"Of course! That's so sweet of you! Does it smell good?" Kagome looked down at the red and orange blossom.

"I don't know, I'll see." Kagome lifted the flower, the deadly beauty that was about to change the world. Kagome sniffed the flower. She looked up at Sango, her eyes wide as she felt the poison take hold. Kagome felt the flood of pain smash into her. She sank to her knees and hit the forest floor in a dead faint. Before she fainted she was able to make out one thought.

Oh god, what have I done now?

Sango shrieked. "Kagome! Kagome! Oh my god! INUYASHA! MIROKU! Kagome! Kagome!" Sango was on her knees next to her young friend's slumped form. Inuyasha and Miroku ran over at Sango's cry.

"Oh my god! What happened Sango!" Miroku yelled as he ran over. Inuyasha ran to Kagome's side and lifted her into his arms. He felt for a pulse. There! He felt it, but it was getting weak.

"Oh shit, come on Kagome! Wake up! Wake up!" Inuyasha whispered. I can't lose her over something as weak as a flower! He knew what had caused it because he heard Sango explaining that Kagome had smelled the flower and then fainted. Inuyasha jumped up, Kagome in his arms, and ran for the village. Sango and Miroku didn't waste a second; they raced after their friends, wondering if Kagome would be all right.

She looked around. She was surrounded by mist, swirling, twining around her feet, arms, everywhere.

'Where am I?' Kagome thought. She was a bit woozy but all together alright.

"INUYASHA!" she called out into the darkness before her.

"INUYASHA!" Desperate she ran. She didn't know how long she ran, she didn't know how far she ran. Kagome knew deep in her heart that if she didn't run, she wouldn't see Inuyasha again. Her only will to live. Finally she saw a speck of light ahead of her. Kagome ran harder than ever now, trying to leave her feelings of panic behind as she ran for her only exit.

Suddenly her eyes flew open. She was in Inuyasha's arms, and he was. No, it couldn't be. Her brave, strong, egotistical Inuyasha was crying.

"Inu-Inuya-Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered, weakness making her paralyzed. Inuyasha looked down.

"Kagome! Fuck, what happened! You just frickin' collapsed!" Kagome tried to smile but panicked when she felt that wave of unconsciousness coming in to meet her.

"Inuyasha, I-I" but before she could finish her sentence, the wave hit and she went under. Inuyasha felt her body slump back into his arms.

"Kagome, don't worry, I'll find a way to save you! Don't you dare die on me now!" And with that he raced into Kaede's hut and called for the old woman.

"Kaede! Kaede! Get over here now!" Kaede hobbled in as fast as her old bones would allow.

"What is it Inuyasha? Why do ye yell so loud?" She said. Then she noticed Kagome's limp form and she gasped. "Here, put Kagome here. What happened to the poor child?" She asked as Inuyasha laid Kagome onto the bed roll.

"I don't know" He said as Kaede checked Kagome's vital signs. "She was talkin' to Sango and then she sniffed this weird flower and collapsed." Kaede felt her pulse, it was weak as ever.

"Lords, She must of smelled a rare form of demon. Yes child, this is a demon, not a flower. But this particular demon only work as servants, never wanting more. This was a trap for ye and Kagome." She finished her answer to his unasked question. "The only thing is, Who wants ye and Kagome dead, enough to send in a powerful servant?" Kaede asked herself. Inuyasha growled.

"Naraku"

She was surrounded by mist again, but she wasn't alone. There was a woman floating in the air in front of her. She was wearing a black dress. Like the one you see at Renaissance fairs, the ones that the princesses wore. She had long, flowing black hair with red streaks in it and the brightest green eyes Kagome had ever seen. She looked like a cat. She looked as if she was 15 but she radiated a sense of age, as if she was from ages past. She looked at Kagome and smiled. She drifted down and landed gently on the ground.

"Hello Kagome, I'm here to help." the stranger said.

"Who are you? How do you know my name?" Kagome asked the girl grinned.

"First, I know your name because your friend out there is talking about you. Second, my name is Nelia but you can call me Lia."

--------------------------------------------

Well, this seems to be a good place to stop. The name Lia might sound familiar to a few of you, right? Well, that's cause a few of you might have read Turns of Time by Pwalefriend and the name Lia is in it. To explain, Pwalefriend is a great friend of mine and she wanted me in the story with everyone else so she put in my character's name. See, she and I are in this club and we started to write a story and Nelia (Lia) was my character's name. So to preserve me identity she put my character's name in instead of my real one. Nelia, if your wondering, means "Champion" in Celtic/Gaelic. So you all know what to do now! You go and click on the little "review" button on left down there. Yea, that's the one! I shall only update when I have at least 5 reviews! So Review now!
