A Different Role
Chapter One: Connected Souls
Inuyasha looked at this girl quietly, and she looked at him back.
"Ano... can you help me to get out?" She asked him.
He didn't answer.
"You!" Her voice rose. "What's wrong with you?!"
He stayed still.
***
Inuyasha stayed where he was through the whole time that took her to climb out. His nails dug in the skin of his palm until blood came, and his nose picked up the scent, not recognizing his blood. He concentrated on that... girl. He concentrated on Kikyo.
***
Kagome muttered the whole way up. Now she wanted to kill him slowly and painfully, forcing the life out of him because he simply stood there and stared. It made her palms sweaty, and she was proud that she slipped back down just once.
"That... idiot!" She said to herself, fueling her anger. "Can't he at least try to help me?!"
***
He watched her coming out of the well, panting, sitting on her knees. But as soon as her eyes fell on him she tried to stand up {so she did wait a second. It takes off from the drama!}, stood up, and stuck her finger as deep as she could in his chest.
Before she did speak, Inuyasha spoke first.
"You're not Kikyo."
"Kikyo?" She shook her head. "No, no, no, no, no!" She empathized her 'no'. "My name is Kagome! And you!" Now she spoke. "Why didn't you help me?!"
He shrugged. "It wasn't my interest."
"So your interest is to look down at some poor girl who is climbing all the way up without helping her?!" She cried.
He shrugged again. "Yes."
She fell to her knees again. "What?..."
"If you'd like, I can change my priority," he suggested, his eye glimmering.
She nodded eagerly.
"I can kill you."
Now her whole body was on the ground, and her mouth was wide open with disbelief. She looked at him flexing his claws again, and asked, "Where am I?"
"In nowhere," he answered.
She nodded to herself. "Though so. So if it's nowhere, I can't allow myself to die here!" She got up, and started to run.
"Temme..." He growled. "First taking her image..." his growl turned louder. "Then you take her smell," she could hear him now. "And now you act nothing like her!!!" He ran after her.
He slashed at her, but before it arrived she ducked.
She fell many times, and he decided that this human was clumsy to her own good.
***
Kagome ran, and ran, and ran all the time. Her breath came out shallowly, and her lungs burned. She could feel the blood burning her injuries on her knees, elbows, hands... her clothes were torn, and her hair "flew" behind her.
How is it, she thought distantly while running in the forest, that I arrived here, just to be attacked by him, who thinks I'm some other girl... she sobbed in her mind. Jii-chan, Mama... help me!!!
She heard something fall behind her, and something round rolled to her. Something round...
With blood stains.
She picked it up carefully in her hand...
Because from some reason, she felt connected to it...
***
And a few steps behind her, Inuyasha stopped abruptly, his ears playing and replaying, 'help me!!!'
