Authors Note: well now you see why I didn't include this in the short summary. Anyway lets just hope that Kagome lives though it all. Now back to the story don't ya think? I so can't believe I'm starting a new story that means I have THREE stories on the go that so not cool.
Anyway I intend to take my time with this fic because let me tell ya its going to be a long one so your all going to have to be patient with me on this because I have yet two other fics that are still yet no where near finishing.
So thank you all and don't forget to review!
Chapter 1: A Dream, A Head ache, And Unknown Power
Kagome thrashed in her sleep with beads of cold sweat made there way down her face and into her now wet sleeping bag. Kagome whimpered lightly in her sleep and a look of fear on her face. Her eyes snapped open suddenly breathing heavily she put a hand to her head as she could feel a head ache coming on.
She remembered back to her dream she had been previously having as her head continued to throb. The more she thought about it the more her head throbbed so abandoning her thoughts she looked around. 'Oh great I just had to wake up at dawn didn't I' she thought as she looked up to see the days new light coming up just over the horizon.
Looking around the camp site she looked at all her sleeping friends and at her adopted kit Shippo who lay next to her on her sleeping bag. Kagome smiled as she thought about how well he was growing up. It had been three years after all since she had first met him and even started this journey with her friends.
Kikyo had given her soul to Kagome and gave up her attempts to bring Inuyasha to hell but it still seemed that Inuyasha had still not yet taken much interest in Kagome other than to protect her. Nor was he still morning over Kikyo's second death. Kagome had noticed that Inuyasha had been a little more… well… aggressive towards the leaches monk lately especially when after a good grope from Sango. Kagome only laughed at this and was rather happy that he found a liking to her some what of a sister.
Surprising to Kagome was that Miroku didn't really mind all to much as he was sure there were plenty of women to fill his greedy hands with the buts of women that he encountered when passing though different villages. It also seemed that Sango also rather liked Inuyasha and she and Kagome would always spent time together chatting about Sango and Inuyasha.
Kagome only wished that there was some one for her too but had just not yet found them and was fine with it but it didn't stop her from feeling all the more lonely. Not to mention a cretin monk who seemed to be paying a little more attention to her behind than Sango's now but knew the reason was that of Inuyasha and his new protectiveness over Sango. Even so Kagome never minded because she was sure she was able to keep the leaches monk's wayward hands under expert supervision.
Looking back to the sun rise her thoughts turning back to her dream and what it meant she wasn't sure but it felt… As if it wasn't an ordinary dream more like a… Memory? Her thoughts being broken as a cretin hanyou grunted in his sleep and showed signs of wakening. Kagome stuffed her thoughts of her dream for later but now she had to get ready for breakfast for her self and her friends seeing as it was getting close to the time of their waking.
Kagome got up careful not to wake up her kit to make breakfast and wile doing so she had just remembered it would be her 17th birthday in only a few days. This definitely put a smile on her face as she continued to make her friends their breakfast.
Just as Kagome finished preparing the food her friends had finished getting dressed and were handed a bowl of breakfast and sat down to eat it kindly thanking Kagome for making it for them. She too sat down and enjoyed her breakfast when suddenly she felt the familiar tugging she sensed a shard near by. Quickly standing on her feet and turning in the direction in which the shard was coming from. All her friends put on red alert as they too sensed the miko's distress and they all took up their battle stations.
"It's coming I can feel it…it-… it's huge" Kagome whispered just as a mega sized ox demon burst though the forest trees and was forced behind her friends to keep her from getting hurt. 'It's no fair I can't even protect myself and I am forced to cower behind them like some weakling' instantly she grabbed her bow and arrowsand unconsciously focused her energy into the arrow, but it seemed different this time as if stronger some how. She aimed her now glowing blue arrow at the giant ox demon and fired her arrow before her friend even got a chance to attack and a bright light flashed. The ox demon was purified instantly leaving nothing but ash.
Every ones eyes grew wide and their jaws dropped and Kagome was lost in thought 'blue? Its always been a pale pink. Well it was and brilliant blue' she smiled inwardly to herself just amazed at her handy work. Inuyasha just stood there gaping at her lost for words. Miroku was the first to recover his voice. "Kagome! How did…you-? ... When did… you-? …" Miroku stuttered looking for the words. Kagome just smiled shyly at every one
Looks like she had some explaining to do but what bothered her was that she didn't know the explanation her self what was she to do?
