Remember Not To Breathe...

By: CagedRaven

Prologue: What's Going On…?

Cold...something cold; constantly moving around me… it seems to have a mind of its own. Pushing and pulling me back and fourth, angrily as if I had done something wrong …

Colder… I seem to only get colder… my inner thoughts giving out… I start to go under… not wanting to open my eyes, fearing that all that will greet me back will be the darkness I've seen for far too long… Wetness seeps into my ears as I feel my body get heavy…then into my mouth and noise where my oxygen supply was above the clouded view from my eyes; filling my lungs with its fluids…

I go numb…my brain no longer holding on to the hope it tried to store away in my heart… the hope that maybe he would wake up from his nightmare and see that it was me… that it was … me…

A baby's cry could be heard down the white hallways of a hospital; people, both family and friends even those who worked on the floor, crowed around the young woman in room 1240 with a bundle in her arms. A new member to the family wrapped up in a pink blanket with her matching checks, round and full. Her eyes seemed to be a deep blue, almost like the sea… like her father's. Closed now that no one knew of their color besides her mother. The father of the new born no where to be found, but no one else seemed to care about the disapproving looks shot every once in a while by some nurses here and there as the young woman was only nine-teen years old.

"What is her name, Yuki?"

The new mother sat in her bed holding her new born in an angle that if you stood on her right you would be able to see the three hour old baby's face, she said "I haven't picked a name yet…"

"Don't rush it, the right name for her will come to you soon." The grandmother of the baby said as she sat in an empty seat next to her daughter.

Yuki nodded looking into her memory of what names she heard before that she liked and which name would fit perfectly for her daughter as the sound of sirens could be heard from behind a closed window.

But sadly this is not where our story begins, that was a story of birth… this is a story of death…

"Hurry up! Get her into the emergency room! Keep pumping her heart!" moving as fast as they could the ambulance truck parked in front of the entrance, moved a girl's still body into an area where doctors and nurses were waiting. Not even taking her unmoving form off the transport bed, they started looking for a good vein to put an IV line into her while the others hooked up an oxygen mask around her face and heart monitors even though it didn't pick up any sign of her heart beating. After five minutes and they had gotten the line in, pumping salt water and other nutrients into her blood stream the top doctor pull out a breathing tube seeing the mask wasn't going to work on this one. Opening her pale lips they pushed the tube down her throat until it was in place then taping it onto the side of her cheek with a white, surgical tape, they hooked the tube to a machine. The sound of it humming as it pushed air into the girls lungs then taking it back out, hoping her lungs would start working on their own, was not heard because of the item one doctor held. He rubbed the pads together then placed it on her chest sending out a small jolt of electricity to start her heart up again. They repeated these same actions over and over again until after twenty minutes passed the top doctor proclaimed her dead.

Drowning in a body of water that no one knew was in the area they found her in. but the odd thing was the next day the lake was gone, the cops wanting to see the scene of the 'crime'. Everybody in the town said she killed herself, but the victims' body said otherwise…

Signs of a struggle could be found as most of her organs showed stress, someone killed this girl… only the age of six-teen. It must have been some one close to her… but who…?

First off: I do not own Inuyasha

Okay for those who don't know this story is an AU Inuyasha (Not an x-overed) story.

Now then All the demons in this story are human!!! Or in Kirara view, a normal cat! Meaning Inuyasha doesn't have his ears/ Sesshoumaru doesn't have the moon on his fore head or the lines on his cheeks/ no pointy teeth/ Naraku can die (but will he…?).

Tell me what you think so far; my mind really has no idea where it is going with this so it may turn out to be longer then I thought or just plain short. Who knows…
