Feudal Diaries:
Chase
Inuyasha © Rumiko Takahashi
Summary- Kagome finds herself stalked by a creature of the night. Takes place during canon series.
Kagome didn't know how she found herself in this situation, and yet here she was. She stood alone in the middle of the forest, in the dead of night, and she stupidly forgot her bow and arrows. What was she even thinking?
There was the howl of the wind...the snap of a twig somewhere nearby, which caused her to gasp as she looked to her right, yet saw nothing. A shadow blurred past her from behind, too fast for her peripheral eye to catch as she whirled around. Her heart pounded in her ribcage and her breath hitched as she clutched her hands to her chest.
As she turned around, again...she spotted them: a pair of glowing, golden yellow eyes, glaring at her through the branches.
Kagome felt a shiver go down her spine and she did the only thing she could think of.
Run.
Turning on the very heels of her feet, she bolted, but the creature soon jumped after her in hot pursuit. The forest blurred past her eyes as she panted, and she could hear the flapping of fabric as her pursuer practically flew through the air. Kagome momentarily glanced back, but could not find the golden eyes of the creature, but as she looked ahead, she gasped as she nearly crashed into a wall of red. She skidded to a halt before she ran to her left, breaking through the trees and out into an open meadow...but not long after, something gripped her sleeve.
Kagome gasped at the sudden added weight before she found herself tumbling along the grass along with the creature and soon found herself pinned down. She was curled up in a fetal position, her tiny form being hovered over by a larger, stronger body. Her brown eyes met his golden ones, his silver hair glistening in the light of the full moon. A growl rumbled in his throat as he lowered his head, causing her to screw her eyes shut as he opened his mouth, revealing his sharp fangs...which lightly grazed her ear as he whispered...
"You're it..."
Kagome's eyes shot open...but then she snorted as a broad smile split across her face. Inuyasha chuckled as he stood up, then gently took her hand and pulled her up to her feet. She still panted, but not quite as heavily as before while the half-demon grinned.
Who knew Inuyasha liked a good game of chase?
Review, please!
