Love Me Tender
Chapter 2: Confusion
Disclaimer: I do not OWN Inuyasha! So what? I own this plot anyway…and my dog named spicka, and my two African love birds twixt and gaea and my other two birds shaku ad shaka…
"What happened?" Confusion and amazement can be seen clearly on the face of the goddess who was still frozen in her spot. She can't believe it. A ghost, now, that was new.
Looks like I will have to pay a visit to my friends…Kagome immediately turns back on her true form after making sure no mortals are within seeing range. She pulls a small, silver ball inside her pocket and taps it three times. A blue glow came forth from the ball and envelops her. Kagome whispered,
"Istakula! City of Gods!" and she vanished.
"What is it that you want again?! Tell me you're kidding?!" Sango, the Keeper of Secrets, pleads to her friend Kagome who was sitting comfortably in her office with that I-will-get-what-I-want look in her adorable face. (is that too much?)
"I can't give you the information you want. That era was beyond my power. All the secrets of that time are under Naraku, the God of Death and Destruction. I'm sorry Kagome. If you really need that information, you have to ask him." Sango stated finally after a few minutes of contemplation.
"But I can't talk to him. You know how much I loathe that man. He's been after me for so long." Kagome answered while visibly whining.
"Why do you want to know the secrets of Demon Era? Why the sudden interest over it? It's been thousands of centuries ago." The Keeper asks The Goddess.
"You see, I've met a ghost, no rephrase that, I've seen a ghost. A demon ghost, I know it's a demon because of his markings. I was really captivated by him. He looks so sad, and his golden eyes and silver hair is so gorgeous. Mystery is all over his aura, and you know how much I love mysteries. And I think, I'm in love with him. You know, like what the mortals are saying, love at first sight." Kagome answered with that wistful look in her sapphire orbs.
"You've gone crazy. Living with the mortals prove dangerous than previously believe. You can't fall in love. You should not fall in love. You're breaking the Code of Gods. They'll punish you! Do you want to be a mortal too?"
"Of course not! But the Code only said that we will be mortals if we fell in love with a mortal! That ghost I've seen is not a mortal! He's dead now ok? So…maybe that's fine…" Kagome retorted but only whispering the last words.
"Fine! Do what you want. You are a very stubborn woman Kagome. If you really want to know who is this man…or demon as you said, then you have to take the risk and talk to Naraku. That is the ONLY way. But I tell you, just forget about him. Concentrate on your work or go find another man. There are plenty of more appealing Gods in Istakula. I know you can find one who will suit you." Sango advice to Kagome.
"I don't know if I can find one here. Besides, I've seen the man I wanted and I will do everything just to know his name." With that said, Kagome left her friend which only shake her head.
Why can't Sango understand what I mean? This is really frustrating. Is there any other way to get the book about the Demon Era? If only I could find another way… Kagome mused while walking towards her home.
"Kagome! Kagome!" A shrill voice called Kagome. She turned around but was suddenly engulfed by something, or rather someone.
"Inuyasha, if you don't get off me, I will die." Kagome said to the person with a giggle.
"Kagome, you can't die. You're immortal remember?" Inuyasha answered after letting go of Kagome.
"So, what are you doing here? This is a very unexpected. You just visit without sending me a notice." Kagome looked at the God before him.
"Well, I was taking care of some things and I decided to visit my very own sister. So how are you in the world of mortals?" The God of Protection answered.
"Come on in. Not too good, not too bad. Mortals are very easy to please. And they easily fall in love. Oh, how I envy them brother. How I wish I could love anyone as I wish." Kagome said with a sad tone on her voice.
"It's not that I hate being a Goddess, but you know, I can't enjoy my life. I was forever bounded in the Code of Gods. I give happiness to the mortals while I can't even have my own happiness and I'm a Goddess. Sometimes I wonder, the mortals are luckier than us. Even though they die, at least they got the chance to love and be loved, unlike us. " The Goddess continued, now with tears brimming in her eyes.
Inuyasha hug her sister and whisper to her.
"This is the life given to us. We can't change it or do something about it. The only thing we could do is accept it. We've talked about this before. Sister, please understand. You've got to keep moving. And besides, think of what will happen to the couples if there is no Goddess of Love who will help them in their problems." Inuyasha reassured her sister.
"Now, can we go inside your house now? I'm so tired and I wanted to eat something! Ramen is calling me!" Kagome laughed while literally dragged by his brother…
Well, I hope you like it even a bit. Please! Review! LOL…arigato!
