Time's Icy Touch

by dark shadowed rose

Time is cold, not too many people know it better than Kagome Higurashi but Steve Rogers might be one of them. This is my first drabble series, updates will be sporadic. M for volence, for any bad words and any perverted jokes that write themselves in.

2. Chapter 2

Time's Icy Touch

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, I don't own Avengers or any of the related characters, and putting them together is not that original I just hope the end resulting drabble series is.

Chapter Two

2010 Willamette University

Kagome sighed looking around the crowd, the graduates were mingling with friends and family and she was struck by the stupidity of wishing for her mom or Souta. She had come here under a new name Kagome Hara. She had been sixteen three years ago starting her Masters in Business Management with a minor in Environmental Sciences. Now she was suppose to be nineteen and she'd applied with several places, but Stark Industries was what she had her heart set on, however she was pretty sure they wouldn't want her. A nineteen year old orphan with a small trust fund from her traveling father, and her mother. An only child she had spent eight years in Japan, two in France and then the other six here in the states. Not to mention no listed work places, on paper she'd never held a job before.

No as annoying as it would be Shippo or Sesshomaru would get her a job she only had to pick where.

Smiling at her giddy friends, she felt a distant sense of happiness for them but honestly they were such children. No doubt this melancholy feeling was because for the fifteenth time she was graduating without family there. Or maybe it was the fifteen times thing. Nothing new here really, the faces changed, the names changed, but Kagome knew in eight years her friends would be married or getting married and she'd been looking at disappearing again.

No her hopes of aging normally were still out of reach, when she had realized that living on the shrine again she had cried for weeks. Her last hope that once she was part of her normal birth timeline she'd age was gone, in tatters, as if it had never been more than mist anyway.

Whatever, she had made the right choice when she'd left promising to attend Souta's wedding (whenever he found a girl crazy enough to marry him) she still looked eighteen and was claiming twenty six and he was twenty-two, how long could she keep claiming to be his older sister? Not long at all in her experience.

Some times she wished time would waste away for her.

"Ms. Hara?"
