The Deadly Prophecy.
Disclaimer. Well... yeah.. I don't own InuYasha & co, Rumiko Takahasi does. The songs mentioned throughout the story belongs to their respective owners (unless I've written something else at the end of the song, or at the end of the story, in the AN). But I do own the plot, O.C's that shows up now and then... Yeah.. I'm new at this, so I don't even know :c
A/N: Okay.. So, I think this the ONLY chapter, I'll have time to publish this month. The reason(s) written in the Author Note in the end of this chapter.
Anyways, I'll skip talking about that, until the end of the chapter.
Full summary.
She already knew her fate. She didn't try to prevent it. She knew the victory had a sacrifice. She knew what was to come. Yet... she didn't deny it, she didn't prevent it... She just went with it. But before it happened... she made sure that the only one she had loved, protected, safe. She never denied her fate. She embraced it. A smile plastered on her face, before she faded away. She wanted to go... Now that she had seen him, one last time. She didn't know the consequences of her actions at that time.. But she was soon to experience them herself.
This is "The Deadly Prophecy".
A note for my friend Anne.
And a little note for my good friend, Anne. I'm sorry, but it'll take time, before I can publish the next chapter, that will include the fluff between those two. It's a bit awkward if you're not reading this D:
Dedication.
Dedicated to a very good friend of mine, whose birthday is soon n_n
Warning.
The point of view, will change without me telling sometimes, so I'm sorry about that. And my English might seem a bit rusty, but it's mostly because English isn't my original language. Norwegian is.
ANYWAYS. Here is the next chapter of The Deadly Prophecy, "This Is Not The End"
LAST TIME.
Kagome walked past Bellflower, smirking. "And... I won't put up with this shit after a 500 year sleep, so don't fuck with me, okay, slut?" Kagome walked towards the school, the crowd that had come around them, oohed. Miruko and Sango followed after Kagome. They became surprised that she did that to Bell, the school's most powerful miko, and the most popular girl at school, as well as the richest. Well, that was untill Kagome came along. But back with InuYasha and Bellflower... Bellflower was furious. Beyond furious. She was red in her face, her fists were clenching. She was publicly humiliated. And this girl wouldn't get away with it.
Chapter three. This Is Not The End.
Kagome walked towards the school entrance, knowing everybody's eyes was on her. A smile graced her lips, as she walked up the stairs to the entrance of the school. The door was quickly open and the black-haired miko walked inside. She sighed softly, walking towards the school office. A hand went up from its place by her leg and landed on the door's handle. She opened it quickly, and was soon inside, closing it behind her. The room was white, with many large windows on the sides. A wooden desk stood in front of Kagome, with a modern computer, lamp and other things one would find in an office. Behind this desk, sat a young woman, with black hair that went down her back, and underneath her bangs, Kagome could see a Prussian blue crescent moon on her forehead, and a magenta strip on each cheek. The woman had brown eyes, that seemed very familiar to Kagome. She felt as if she had met this woman before, but where and when, she didn't remember.
Kagome took a step towards the desk, which made the woman's eyes go up at Kagome. A soft smile graced her lips, and she stood up from the chair she sat on, revealing her outfit. She wore a white top with a white blouse over it. She wore white shorts that stopped by her thigh, and a pair of pink Jimmy Cambel shoes (A/N: I totally love those shoes. And the name is probably not written right either...). She walked from the desk, and over to Kagome with a smile.
"Welcome to Shikon High. You're Kagome Penna Higurashi I presume?" the woman asked in a sweet voice. It sounded familiar in a way, but Kagome shook that feeling off her. She nodded softly, with a weak smile covered her lips. The woman smiled even brighter, if possible. "I'm Belle Takahasi,or just, Bell, it's nice to meet you, Kagome."
The surname was familiar, and it immediately clicked in Kagome's mind. This was someone in InuYasha's family, right? "Takahasi? I suppose you're in the same family as InuYasha." Bell's eyes widened slightly, but she recovered from it. "Well, not directly. I'm from another branch of his family, in a way." She said, with the same sweet voice as few seconds ago. "Anyways, I suppose you want your class schedule." Bell turned around, searching for a paper. Soon after, she found it, and turned around to hand it over to the black-haired miko in front of her. "You better get going, the classes are about to begin."
Kagome accepted the paper, and nodded before turning around and exiting the room, rushing towards where she thought her first class was.
Bell turned around, a soft smile covered her features still. Her pale fingertips grabbed the phone that was lying on the desk, and dialed a certain number before placing the phone by her ear. Almost immediately, the call answered, and Bell closed her eyes, leaning towards the desk. "It's me. You told me to call you as soon as I heard something? Well... She's back."
Kagome ran through the hallways, trying to find her class. Giving up on her desperate search, she stopped in front of a classroom. A demon slayer walked behind her, and had soon passed her. Kagome turned around, hearing a pair of foot steps and looked at the paper. "Do you know where I can find classroom 302?"
The demon slayer stopped, and turned towards Kagome. She hadn't seen her face, but she knew something was familiar with her. Mostly because she could sense her aura. The demon slayer studied the paper, before looking up. "I'm heading towards that class now, so if you want to tag along.." Kagome looked up, and saw a familiar face. Sango. She was slightly taken aback. Why was.. Sango at this school as well? If Sango was here as well, wouldn't Miruko also be somewhere nearby? Kagome recovered from the shock, and smiled softly. "Uh.. yeah.. Thanks."
Sango turned towards Kagome, as they both were walking towards the classroom. "Wait a minute. You're that girl who stood up against Bellflower, aren't you?" Kagome smiled slightly. "Yeah. I haven't seen someone who taken aback, or furious, since I was in Japan." she responded, with a slight change of tone. Sango nodded, before taking a turn around a corner. "We're soon there. Anyways.. I think we're going to be very good friends. Anyone who's against Bellflower, is my new best friend. I'm Sango. Sango Kokoro." (A/N: Okay... it was just random.. I think Kokoro means heart in Japanese. I think...)
Kagome smiled, before responding. "I'm Kagome Penna Higurashi. Nice to meet you, Sango."
Sango stopped in front of a classroom, and was soon entering the room. The class turned silent as Sango entered the room, and their attention was turned towards her. Kagome walked after Sango, but stopped by the door. The teacher had his face turned towards the duo, and he wasn't very happy. "SANGO KOKORO! This is the second time."
Sango rolled her eyes, before stepping aside, allowing the teacher to see Kagome. The teacher raised an eyebrow, before sighing. "And your excuse is?"
Kagome let out a frustrated sigh, before stepping into the room. "I'm the new student. Kagome Penna Higurashi." The teacher's eyes widened. He rose to his feet, and bowed for her. "Ms. Feather, it's an honor to have you here." Kagome was taken aback by his action, and looked at Sango. "Does he do that to every new student, or?" Sango silently shook her head, before retreating towards her seat in the class. The teacher regained his position, and sat down on his chair.
"Why don't you introduce yourself for the class, Ms. Feather?" Kagome bit her lip. She had no problem with doing that, it was just the teacher that at the moment, freaked her out. She walked towards the middle in front of the class, sighing softly. "Well. I'm Kagome Penna Higurashi, and I just moved here from Japan. More than that, people really don't have to know, unless they talk to me." The teacher nodded slightly, before turning towards the class.
Kagome's eyes flew over the students that sat in front of her. Nothing seemed to catch her eye. Untill..
Her brown eyes found something silver in the back of the class. A certain silver-haired hanyou, with a certain purple-haired bitch on his lap. Lips locked together. She felt something crack inside of her. She felt something break. But most of all... She felt sick. She felt really sick. She pushed the feeling aside, hoping it would subside, but it didn't.
Sango's eyes locked at Kagome, and her eyes grew large. Kagome's eyes, filled with disappointment, anger, sadness. But the huge factor, was regret.
The teachers mouth moved, but Kagome wasn't paying attention to that. It was turned towards the couple that was sitting in the back of the class. "Three timing asshole." she whispered. No one heard it, since the words became sealed with miko energy.
The teacher looked at Kagome, before looking down in the book again. "Pick a seat."
Kagome searched through the class, the only seat available, was a seat between InuYasha and Sango. Kagome sighed, walking towards that seat.
The purple-haired miko, sat now on her seat instead of InuYasha's lap. InuYasha had his eyes on Bellflower, a factor in his eyes was a feeling, a feeling that Kagome knew all to well.. love.
Kagome sighed, sitting down on the seat that was between InuYasha and Sango. With her eyes fixed forward, her face was difficult to read. But one feeling she felt, was regret.
Sango nudged her elbow into Kagome's arm, looking at her. "What's wrong?" Kagome gritted her teeth slightly, placing a hand on her forehead. "Nothing."
If one knew better.. they would have known that Kagome lied.
Time-Skip, Last Class.
Kagome looked at her outfit for the thousand time. She hated it. It was the traditional miko outfit. And it wasn't something Kagome was pleased about. She had to bite the bad apple this time.
In front of her, stood the teacher. A woman dressed in the same outfit Kagome was in. The woman's hair was brown, and hung in a high ponytail. She had blue eyes. Kagome had heard that the teacher's name was Ms. Yuki.
"Okay. So now, everybody knows what they're going to do. Now, go do it."
Ms. Yuki was a young woman, miko, and teacher. She was kinda cool in a way. She would let people practice what they wanted, AS long as they behaved, and challenged themselves. But if someone didn't behave, she could be very scary. Kagome could sense her miko energy, but it wasn't in high amount like hers...
Kagome looked at Sango. "You're a demon slayer, I suppose?" She nodded. "And this is my weapon. Hiraikotsu (A/N: it's probably not written right either, but I'm too tired to fix it now)." She said, lifting the boomerang that hung on her back, up. Kagome nodded.
"And you're a miko, I suppose?" Kagome bit her lip, before nodding once again. "You can say that.. I'm not that powerful."
Sango smiled, and was about to respond, when someone called her name from a distance. She turned towards Kagome, "I'll see you later, I've got to go." Kagome nodded, seeing Sango run off towards the source of the voice. Kagome turned around, hearing her own the name being called. Ms. Yuki stood behind her, one foot softly tapping the ground. "So, you're the new miko?" Kagome nodded for the fourth time in a short while. Yuki studied her, before turning around.
"Well. I don't know if you've got enough miko energy to pull this off, but follow me."
Kagome scoffed, shaking her head. Yet, she followed the teacher. Well, other miko's, demon's and half-demon's could only sense a small amount of her power, mostly because, if they had been exposed for her power, in raw form...
Yuki lifted up the archery equipment that lied on the ground, and handed it to Kagome, who took it immediately. "Let's start small. Shoot at that target." Yuki pointed towards a target that stood much away from them.
Kagome readied the bow, and silently closed her eyes. She sensed Bellflower closing in on her, and Yuki, and opened her eyes. "What do you want?"
Bellflower smiled sweetly, and looked at the teacher, ignoring Kagome's question. "Ms. Yuki. I wondered if I could dual against Kagome later on?"
Kagome sighed, annoyed. So she wanted 'revenge'?
"Well, it depends. If Kagome is able to manage your powers, and if she is strong enough to manifest some spiritual energy."
Kagome smirked softly. "Oh, why not? I'll do it."
Bellflower smiled sweeter than she did few seconds ago, and manifested a bow and arrow in thin air. Everybody looked astonished as Bellflower shot the target that stood the far away from them. And hit bullseye. "Try beating that, Kagome." Bellflower whispered, as she passed her. She stopped on the sideline, looking at the arrow, and bow that Kagome held.
Yuki looked at Kagome. "Start off with a small amount of power, and try to hit the target closest to us."
Kagome readied the bow for second time, and closed her eyes. She pulled the string backwards, aiming towards the target that stood closest to them. She released the arrow, but as she did, she aimed for a target that stood far behind what Bellflower had shot. Kagome opened her eyes, looking at the arrow that flew through the air. It dodged people, and everything else. It was a shot to kill. Bellflower laughed slightly. "What were you trying to hit? Air? Well you succeeded."
Yuki growled at Kagome in anger. "I told you to aim for the target that was closest to us, not far away. AND not to use so much power. Yo-"
Yuki didn't get any further in that sentence, before the target that Kagome had shot at, disappeared from the face off the Earth. Kagome made the bow disappear in thin air. "You told me to use small amount of power. I did. Anything else?"
Yuki looked in astonishment at the target that no longer stood there. She turned towards Kagome, she didn't sense that massive amount of power from her. "How come I can't sense your full potential of spiritual energy?"
Kagome turned away, looking at the sky. "Because, I sealed it. That's why. Now can Kiky-... I mean, Bellflower try to fight me with full force?"
Bellflower's jaw was open, she was clearly impressed, but she recovered quickly, not wanting Kagome to see her reaction. Aleastra had already seen this reaction, and since she and Kagome was connected, Kagome saw it. It made her smile.
Yuki looked at Kagome, not knowing if she was serious. "You want Bellflower to attack you... with full power? Are you insane?"
Kagome turned towards Yuki, smiling. "A bit. Sleeping for 500 years, makes one insane somewhere in one's mind, don't you think?"
Bellflower had overheard the conversation, and had already readied a bow and arrow. "Well, are you ready to show what you're made off?"
Kagome smiled slightly. "Try, and you'll see."
Kagome knew that Aleastra was doing this, that she, herself, wasn't saying this. Aleastra had now taken slightly control over her body, and she was now fighting to regain her own consciousness.
Aleastra wanted revenge. She felt it.
Yuki stepped away from Kagome, wishing her good luck. This had attracted a crowd. InuYasha, Miruko, Sango were only few of those who were seeing this.
Aleastra looked towards Bellflower, it was now or never.
Bellflower's fingertips touched the string, and she pulled it backwards, with the arrow firmly on the string.
Kagome were fighting against Aleastra's conciousness, who had taken over her.
Bellflower released the string, raw spiritual energy shot towards Kagome, a pure pink color was surrounding the arrow that came towards Kagome.
She finally regained consciousness...
But it was too late...
Everybody covered their eyes, the pink had blinded their eyes. Even demons had trouble with the light, and closed their eyes in slight pain.
"This is not the end." a warm and soft voice said.
InuYasha and Sango were the first ones to open their eyes. What they saw, shocked them to no end.
~ To Be Continued ~
A/N: Okay. It was a little cliffy. But the end was lousy D: I hurried it, so I feel like it didn't become that well, as I wanted it to become :c So I guess you want to know why this is the only chapter that will be published in this month, and that means, there probably won't be another chapter before next month or even May.
REASON: School. It's a pure hell now. I have three exams in the next days/weeks. Already tomorrow, I have an exam in English. Monday next week there is Norwegian exam and after the easter holiday, there is a math exam. Not only that, I have three presentations, a helluva lot math and Norwegian homework, and in 37 days I'm going to remove the braces, if my dentist isn't such an evil person this time as well :c
So, I must honestly say, I'M SORRY. School is a hell now, and with everything else after school. Oh dear..
IF I'm lucky, I might be able to write the next chapter in the next month, and maybe publish it.
Well.. this has been sort of practice for the English exam tomorrow c: Aw.. Here I come, bad character :c
n.n
Note 1 - I almost wrote this in Norwegian ^^ Anyways, why it was 'Kagome Penna Higurashi', was because I just felt like it. Kagome has slept for 500 years, and she wanted a change, let's say that c: Anyways. Penna is Latin, and means 'Feather/Wind'.
(In Norwegian it would've been, and I translate directly from English to Norwegian now; "Uansett, hvorfor det var 'Kagome Penna Higurashi', var fordi jeg følte bare for det. Kagome har sovet for 500 år, og hun ønsket en forandring, sier vi c: Uansett, Penna er Latin, og betyr Fjær/Vind". I guess that now you've learned some Norwegian ^^)
