Chapter 4 There more?
Dead, she must be dead, that what she thought. Floating in the water, the cool relaxing water. The escape she wanted from everyone, and everything.
"Kagome, honey, we need to talk." The voice it sounded so familier, but who? "Your father and I," She then knew who it was, it been to long since she heard it. Her mom. "We feel," her eyes are red, blood shot. No this wasn't fair. She didn't want to re live this part! "Me and your are splinting up. And we feel you must choose who you want to live with."
Kagome knew what had happen, mom had caught dad with another women. "Mom, I want to go with you." She remembered thats when the hatred of relationships started.
"You lil Kagome?" Where was she, it became hard to think, the image seem a little blur. She sees a man in a uniform, a police officer, at school! She nod her head at the man. "I'm sorry, but you will be living with your father, your mother is gone from this earth." Tears stream down the girl face.
"NO" She sat up, and looked around. Where was she? Looking around she notice she was at her house. A Dream? "It was just a dream." She laugh at herself. When she went to move her head, pain shot through then she fell out of bed of the shock of it. She heard foot steps in her house. Her door open so fast she thought the floor shook, or the door came off its hindges.
Slowing climing up to the bed, she looked to see who it was. To so much her surprise, the last person she thought. Kikyou. "You are not suppose to move Kagome." She walk across the floor to sit on the bed. She grabbed Kagome arm and brought her face close to hers. "The brusies look a lot more better," she said cooly to her. "Cuts look clean, how do you feel?" She said letting go of Kagome.
"Fine, I think I am ready to go to school." She said. Today had to be Friday right? She felt dizzy and ready to faint, but she wasn't worried about that.
"School? Today is Sunday." She mention while getting up. "I will be back with some medicen to get rid of the dizziness." She walked off and that wasn't even the surprise that she knew of her dizziness. She heard arguing, she try not to listen, but it seemed so much closer.
"You done it this time Inuyasha, and over what? A movie? You trying to get us into trouble?" It sounded like Mr Nelluk.
"Sesshomaru, I didn't mean anything about it. You know how me and Kouga are, we. . . ." he went quiet. "I told you I didn't want to be around people! I can't be me around all these heart throbbing people!" he sounded annoyed or scared, she couldn't choose the voice pattern. "Besides why isn't Ernie getting into trouble? He came out of no where!"
"He try to protect her more then you have done. But as for now you and Kouga will be helping her around for a bit. It looks bad. I am surprised she didnt die . Or better yet stay in a coma." it sounded like foot steps leaving, which one she couldn't tell. Two sets of footsteps came up and they enter the room, Inuyasha and Kouga.
"Kagome," they started out, "Were sorry." and they looked it too. Inuyasha eyes now look different once again. Red? When he blinked they turn Charcoal black. She shook her head, must be the problem of being knocked out.
"You are brothers, its natrual you two fight." what she said. She couldn't remember her brother. Shaking her head she tried. "Inuyasha, do you have contacts or does your eyes change with the reflection of lighting?"
Inuyasha stood very still, he seem a bit off with a simple question. "Lighting, it does a huge trick with my eyes at times, why?"
"Nothing." She sat to think, "I want to start on our project Kouga."
"Be best if you didn't yet Kagome," Kikyou walked in then, "You must rest." She said bring in a tray. When she put it down Kagome looked down at it in a weird way. Leaves, and a cup with water in it, with a cutting tool. Kikyou started to cut it up, watching the juices of it come from every cut she made.
"Besides Kagome you couldn't do much anyways." Kouga said. "I did most of for us. After the accidnt of course. I got a lot of Information." he said. Ok now Kagome was angry. If anything she did most of the project cause she liked to present it. Now Kouga took off with it and made it his own! To get her mind to ease she watched her cut it then put it in water. Kikyou mixed it into a icky green slime in the water.
"Swallow this, trust me you rather have it like this then in the leaf form." Kikyou handed her the small cup.
Kagome obey, she took it and swallowed it as ordered. The taste wasn't at all bad, but the texture disgusting. Felt like swallowing a large slug that just refuse to go down her throat. Handing her the cup, Kikyou took the tray and left.
"How I get here?"
"We moved you, thought it be better if you were around the things you like other then some strange area." Inuyasha whispered.
"Thank you, I would like some rest though please." Kagome said.
"Yea we better go, see you later Kagome," Kouga said smiling sweetly, but Kagome felt like kickin his teeth in all the same.
"Take care Kagome," Inuyasha said with a light smile, a smile that seem though as bright as the sun. Did Kagome just felt her heart skip a small beat? No its impossiable, she never loved a man and she didn't plan on it until she left this place. No one around here grabbed her attention. The door shut and Kagome turn around to the pillow to make sure they didn't take her book. She smiled in her victory.
Hurried to find her place she did. She became hooked to what information she had so far on the house. Who knew so much had happen down her small street. Not to mention she learned who lived there before. To her suprise there had been a diary copy into the book, it was written by Haru.
Oh my dearest DAICHI is dieing, what to do. I loved him all my life, as a child growing up. Can I really do what I did to Kikyou? Change him? My life changed at the age of 20 when I myself was attacked by a demon, and now I am force to live forever with such a harmful illness of life. I can't watch my dearest husband die. I wish that he himself will forgive me and mind living forever with me.
Kikyou was to be my last, and my first. I couldn't stand seeing her die right in the bed. My husband worked so hard to make her better. He felt he failed. So I snuck into her room and changed her. When She wouldn't move and her heart quit beating I became sad and Left. Fourteen days later she came to me when I work by the pond. She had been buried, and she walked to me with dirt on her clothes and hair. I quickly bath the young girl and dress her in some of my old clothes. I told her she must not show herself for she is suppose to be dead. She looked at me with her brown eyes and cried the pain she felt.
Kagome stare down at the book, how sad. She didn't want to lose her husband. She continue to read more, of what happen next. She was near finish, which she sighed "Fianlly" nearly a thousand pages. She flip the page to find. . . .Nothing. Torn page. She lifted the book, where the pages go? She shook it and a peice of paper slipped out. It was a very old news clipping.
Man and Wife Hung in the House
The famous Doctor and his caring wife hunged being a demon. People beleived that they killed more then a dozen children, by wanting them as their own. They pleaded that they themselves did no such thing, but evidence did not help them, for the young girl named Kikyou was found walking about in their home. She too was to be hung.
The house is now off limits for demons have possed it as their own.
Kagome seemed confused. A news paper clipping like this should of been kept in the libary information area, not in a torn book. Which is funny, she could of sworn that all the pages were there. She folded the page back in to the book and lay her head down. Maybe she should take a nap. She felt tired, and so weak, like she lost a lot of blood.
