The Things She Didn't Tell Him

She woke up in a cold sweat. Kagome had been having this same dream—more like nightmare—ever since she had started coming to the feudal era. She didn't understand it no matter how many times she had the dream. The only thing she knew was that it involved her father's death. She moved Shippou off of her stomach and got up quietly. Kagome exited the hut so deep in thought she didn't sense the half demon's aura right behind her.
"What are you doing, wench?" Kagome whipped around quickly, her midnight hair snapping in her face.
"I um…needed some fresh sir," she lied quickly as a swift jolt of her stomach made her grimace. Oh how she hated lying—especially to him.
"Feh," was his bitten reply. He could tell she was lying. It didn't take a full demon to smell the difference in a lying human's aroma. Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at her suspiciously. Kagome swiftly walked past him, her face taking on an unnatural, pale color.
"Where are you going?"
"For a walk," she said shortly.
Kagome had indeed sauntered a good while before she eventually sat down on a fallen tree. Her troubled thoughts were tumbling over her mysterious dreams.
Inuyasha had followed Kagome and was currently looking down at her from the low branches of a tree. The look in his eyes didn't hide the fact that he was worried about the young priestess.
Kagome stood up from her spot on the log and continued her hike deeper and deeper into the murky forest. Nothing seemed to be making sense. She was told that her beloved father had died in a horrible car accident. From what her dreams were telling her, her otosan had died in a great battle—with a demon.
Inuyasha, who continued to follow her, abruptly came to a stop. There was a barrier surrounding this part of the forest. The half demon cursed as he could no longer follow his closest companion and protect her.
"Kuso," the silver haired hanyou hissed under his breath as he unsheathed his Tetsusaiga.
Kagome finally looked up to where she was going. She realized frantically that she was hopelessly lost.
"This is just what I needed," she exclaimed sarcastically to no one. The raven haired girl attempted to use her miko powers to find Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippou, even Kirara, but something was blocking their auras. The thing that frightened her most was that it might not be that there was just something blocking their auras. Something horrible could have happened to her friends.
Kagome picked up her pace and was soon blindly running through the woods. Her mind was reeling in the possibilities. The seventeen year old failed to notice an upturned tree root and ended up falling face forward, scraping the palms of her hands on some rocks. When she looked up from the ground there was a foreign youkai standing a few yards in front of her.
The demon bowed and almost whispered in a soft tone, "Come with me, Lady Kagome."
