I haven't wrote a story in a while. A year actually, so please don't be brutal. I'm not a very committed person so I'll try to keep up with this story if I can. However, please encourage me to continue by reviewing.

The young girl continued to walk forward in short, almost hesitant steps. The plain she walked on was beautiful in a natural, untouched way. Dark, green grass was every where, bushes that grew a variety of flowers scattered the area, and only few trees could be seen.
In the distance, a waterfall could be spotted at the beginning of the plain. It's white-washed water disappearing in to a clear, blue pond.
Kagome stopped for a second, scanning the land for any form of life. She sighed when realizing there was nobody else in her sight.
How long had she been traveling? A couple days? A few weeks? Maybe even a hundred years?
The terrain was small, no doubting that. 50 acres at its most before disappearing in to a big forest. It wouldn't take very long to travel across. However, it wasn't the size of land that was keeping her where she was. What kept her restricted was her fear of leaving the land.
Who knows what's in that forest? Perhaps big, scary monsters as big as mountains. Maybe even those furry, big-teethed, dog-looking things that had tried to eat her before.
The thought of it made her shiver. Looking around for any sign of the creatures she had just imagined, Kagome paused. The bush closest to her rattled, making her jump in fear.
Kagome watched the bush with a close eye. Only stepping back a few times to what she thought was a safe distance.
A bunny hopped out of the bush and towards Kagome. Shaking her head, Kagome cursed herself for over exaggerating.
Taking another step forward, Kagome was startled when her stomach growled. Putting a hand on her stomach in a poor attempt to stop the noise, Kagome let her head hang low from exhaustion.
She was practically starving. Never before had she tasted meat, not having the heart, or stomach, to kill a living creature. The berries that she had scavenged wasn't nearly enough to fill her up.
All she wanted to do at the moment was flop down on the ground and fall asleep. Kagome wasn't stupid though, if she were to do that she was sure she wouldn't wake up the next day. She would probably get eaten by carnivores while she was sleeping or freeze to death by the cold night air.
Before she went to sleep, Kagome needed to look for food to bring back to her "home." Majority of the berries in the area were poisonous or unripe. Spotting a bush with growing berries on it, Kagome ran towards it in excitement.
It felt like forever since she had a meal. Winter was coming fast and already the plants seemed like they were dying.
Halting at the bush, Kagome plucked a berry. Sitting down, she inspected the berry closely. The berry was a nice shade of dark red and didn't have dark, brown seeds littering its body like its poisonous cousin.
Deciding it was edible, Kagome picked all of the ripe berries off the bush and threw them in to a handmade, woven basket. This would be her dinner and her breakfast, considering how fast it takes for a berry to rotten without proper care.
A cool gust of wind made Kagome grab on to her coat and clutch it to her body. Looking up, she noticed the sky was getting darker. The night air was already beginning to develop and if she didn't get home fast she would have to climb a tree and sleep on a branch. God knows how uncomfortable that is.
Grasping the basket, she turned around and headed towards her home.
…By the time she was near her shelter, it seemed difficult to lift a foot. She stopped in front of the waterfall. Climbing some moss-covered rocks, she slipped in to a small opening between the water and an opening.
The cavern wasn't very big but it suited its purpose. It was well hidden and there was little to no chance that a hungry carnivore would find it. The ground was littered with nuts for the winter, when there would be no berries.
Once in the cavern, Kagome collapsed. Eagle-spread on the hard floor, she closed her eyes and groaned in exhaustion.
A light weight landed on Kagome's stomach, making her open her eyes, just a bit. There, seated on her, was a light brown bunny. Looking at Kagome with big, bright eyes it cuddled up in to her coat.
"Akina", the young girl muttered its name. Smiling just a bit, Kagome sat up, pushing the bunny off her stomach and on to her lap. Dragging the basket closer to her, Kagome pulled out a few berries and laid them out in her hand. Bringing the berries to Akina's mouth, she watched as the bunny ate out of her hand.
Akina was precious to her, a companion to keep her company. Without Akina, Kagome wondered what would happen to her. The loneliness would get to her, Kagome was sure of this. Despite not having enough companionship, Kagome was a very social person, playing with any harmless creature she could get her hands on.
It took a moment for the rabbit to finished eating before Kagome grabbed more berries. Slipping them in to her mouth, Kagome let a moan slip through her mouth from the flavor.
Before she knew it, half the berries in the basket were gone. Although Kagome was still hungry, she stopped eating her share of food. If she was to eat dinner tomorrow there had to be more berries left over.
Kagome reached for a small, square blanket not far from her. Pushing Akina off, only for a second, she flew the blanket on top of her. Despite the fact that sleeping in a coat was uncomfortable, she wasn't willing to take it off.
The coat was always uncomfortable nowadays, it seemed. It clung to her body too tightly and the end of it barely reached her belly button. She was outgrowing her clothes, Kagome knew that. But her clothes were her most prized possessions, they were the only things that she still had left from when she was "born."
Letting her eyes slip closed, Kagome felt herself getting pulled down in to blissful, blissful sleep
"Now, in order to stop burglary I think that we should-", America started only to get cut off when the conference room door slammed open.
At the entrance stood Kazakhstan, panting for breath. He bent over, hand on his knees, and gasped for air.
"My soldiers have spotted another one of us!," he shouted out. "In between the border of China and Russia and in the middle of my country and Mongolia."
Well, hope you like it. I'll try to update as soon as possible. Be sure to leave comments on how I could improve my writing or else I'll continue to suck. Thank you !
