Dark side of the lust
Episode one – When it all falls apart
Right from the start of the day she just knew, that it´s going to be one Hell of a Friday. She woke up with totally messy hair, slipped on the soap while taking a shower and now she was late for school. On top of that it was the last day of exams and her least favorite subject was awaiting ahead – Math.
Practically running she almost stumbled upon somebody drunk but he couldn´t stop now. No. She had to make it into class on time. As fast as she could, she passed some of her friends along the way, not noticing them. Finally, Kagome sat down on her chair, catching breath, slightly soaked with sweat. It was only then, when she realized, she is the first and only one in her class. ,,Aaaaghr…"
,,No, InuYasha, I´m really not mad." She almost yelled, mostly to calm herself down. Her crossed arms, tapping feet and most obviously, her face, have shown all her emotions. She was really upset, almost on the edge of tears. The afternoon after the exams and a really bad morning; it was just natural to get angry when InuYasha wanted to go to the dead miko, right? Why her again? Do I look that bad? ,,Kagome you know I just need some space. I´ll be back for the dinner, hm?" the half-demon bend down to kiss the angy girl on the cheek and right after that he was gone.
She was tired. Not only physically, her emotions were a total wreck, too. Kagome sighted. Sitting under her favorite sakura tree, she had nothing better to do but cooling her head down. I just don´t get this whole thing… I don´t care about Kikyo anymore. I don´t even care about InuYasha constantly running off to her. Is it that I don´t love him anymore? But… did I love him anyway? Hugging her knees under her chin, she snarled. ,,What the Hell?" her thoughts were slowly running away, as she felt tired. Yawning, she stretched herself. Almost ready to go back to the village she suddenly felt so tired, Kagome decided to stay for a little nap. That won´t hurt anyone, will it?
,,No! Please don´t!" she yelled at InuYasha, who was running around demon-form of Naraku. He and Sesshoumaru were the last ones of the pack, who was conscious. The rest of the pack was hidden with her in the barrier she created. She was afraid. Afraid she will lose her close friends. Both dog demons were powerful but she couldn´t help it. ,,Oh, you little puppies. Don´t you like your worthless lives?" Naraku laughed in an evil manner. With that he send the last thunders of his power, taking both demons down. ,,Stop!" Kagome yelled again, tears streaming down her face. She ran out of the barrier, leaving her unconscious friends unattended. She knew they will be alright. ,,Kagome, get back there!" InuYasha stood up slowly, blood streaming down his mouth. ,,He is right, miko…" Sesshoumaru was in better condition. He ran right to the small frame of the priestess, so that he could protect her. They both came to like each other in the past weeks, when Lord accompanied their pack. ,,Ha ha ha ha! Our little girl would like to fight me! Cute." Naraku grinned evil-ly and send the final attack. ,,Nooooooooo!"
,,Ah!" she woke up from a nightmare that was hunting her over and over again. The scene when they finally killed their worst enemy. She remembered light glowing out of the Shikkon no Tama and a power stronger, that she would ever imagine. With that Naraku, his comrades and Shikkon were destroyed. It was two month ago.
Sighting again, Kagome decided to go back to her friends. The sun was setting down and air started to feel chilly. Hugging herself to get more warmth, Kagome slowly went back down from the hill. She knew that this Feudal fairy tail didn´t have its ending, yet. Every single person in the pack knew, that all good things come to an end, they were waiting for it resignedly. Shikkon no Tama was destroyed with the last wish of its priestess, Kagome; but it didn´t took anything in return just yet. What they didn´t know was that it will take its prey sooner than they expected.
Only a week after InuYasha incident, a week full of quarrels and hatred, comfort from friends and million thoughts, Kagome decided to give up and go home. After saying goodbye to Sango, Miroku, Shippo and Rin , she went to the well with a kind accompaniment of Lord Sesshoumaru himself. ,,Thank you for coming with me, Sesshoumaru – sama!" she smiled brightly. ,,No need to thank, this Sesshoumaru is quite fond of you, miko." Stated the lord firmly, looking deep into her eyes. Kagome blushed; she knew that there was something between them, just didn´t know what. ,,Well, uh… I´ll see you, Sesshoumaru – sama…" a bit nervous, she put her hand on his shoulder, only for a brief moment and then jumped to the well. Surprised lord couldn´t say anything, he just stared. It took only about a minute, when an enormous beam of pink light escaped the well. Something is wrong…
Everyone knew, even Kagome herself that this would happen eventually. Falling on her knees , little miko burst into tears, holding onto the wells edge. ,,Why…?" Why now? I couldn´t even say proper goodbyes! Sango, Shippo, Rin, Miroku, InuYasha and Sesshoumaru… I can´t never see them again…? Mrs. Higurashi knew about everything, so she wasn´t surprised to find her daughter in tears. She hugged Kagome and while whispering soothing words, she slowly guided her home.
Slowly recovering from the lost, Kagome knew, she had to start anew. Picking herself from the bottom, she worked a full-time priestess job, like she used to before entering Feudal. But it wasn´t enough; Kagome knew, she should return to the school eventually. If eventually meant sooner or later to her, it meant right now to her mother. ,,Kagome – chan? Honey, are you awake?" Mrs. Higurashi knocked on the door a few times before entering. Kagome was lying on her bed, listening to some music, staring of to space. ,,Kagome…?" ,,Ah? Oh, it´s you mom." She put headphones off her head and sat, smiling weakly. ,,I want to talk to you about something really important…" she smiled. Kagome knew where this was going. ,,No mom, I…" ,,Stop, young lady." Old, hoarse voice of her grandfather lingered in her ears as he entered the room. ,,You are and adult now, you have to get yourself a proper education." He added. ,,Not to mention a proper husband…" giggled Mrs. Higurashi, blushing a little. ,,But I…" before she could say anything more, her grandfather threw a leaflet into her lap. ,,Cross academy is going to be your new home, from now on. We don´t want you to waste your youth here, my dear Kagome. You should pack up." Leaving the room, he waved lightly. Kagome was shocked. Not only she is going to be a part of an elite school, she is going to live there, too! ,,Mom…" with a completely shocked expression she took her mothers hand. ,,Don´t worry, darling, it´s a really nice place. The director, Kaien Cross is a close friend of mine and he assured me, you´ll be in the safest, most beautiful and educational place in the whole world."
