Light of The Sohmas'

Chapter 10: Waking up


Kyo stood up and turned around to meet with deep blue eyes. "Kagome?" His eyes narrowed as he stared at her. She looked at him with the confusion that usually covered her features. Kagome is denser than anyone he knows. The way she become oblivious with the situation in the house. Scoffing at her, he sat back down letting her stare at his back.

The grass rustle as he felt her near him. Surprisingly, he felt his beck hit something sold. Turning his head slightly, he could see the back of her head as she leaned on his back. "Look," Her voise is soft, "Whatever I have done to make you mad, I didn't meant it." Tch, of course she didn't mean it.

It isn't your fault. He wanted to say, but his only response is staying quiet. Her violent attitude lessen and lessen everyday he noticed. Kagome's more calm now than before. They would always argue most of the time, but she stopped somewhat. Her retort became more and more quieter and distant. Its as if her soul isn't here.

"I'm sorry if I made you mad or Tohru-kun, Yuki-kun. I'm not sure what I've done, but whatever it is must be bad." DOn't apologize. Instead, he clenched his hands into a fist. "You guys acted weird on the table and didn't know what was bothering you all." He looked forward as she tilted her head back as he feel her hair brush against his neck.

A sigh escaped her lips. "I know I haven't been acting myself in all. If I influence you three, I really am sorry." She should just stop apologizing. Kyo wanted so badly to blame her for everything, but how could he? Kagome never have done anything to cause any of this. It isn't her fault she attracted him. It isn't her fault that this curse is on him. It isn't her fault that he loves her. None of this is her fault. Only if she hadn't come in the first place, he would've return the feelings to Tohru.

"Kyo-kun? Are you still there?" A small smile came to his lips.

"Hai, and what are you moping for anyways? You've been depressed lately." He is curious. It's true what she said. Kagome isn't acting herself lately.

Kyo felt her stiffen behind him, but relaxed afterward. Turning his head slightly, he could feel her head leaving from his neck as her long hair cascaded down over her shoulder. He noticed when she leaves her hair down, she looks more feminine. "T-today," he turned his head back and waited for her to continue.

"Today i-is th-the day h-he went in a c-come because of m-m-me." His eyes widen. So, this dude she mention that one night is asleep. That is what Kagome meant when he's still asleep; he's in a coma.

"What did he do?" He couldn't help but ask. Kagome didn't answer and he wondered if he should even ask. It's her personal life. Considering the fact that the person did it for her, she doesn't want to be reminded. Kyo waited a little longer, but she just sat there.

Turning back to the waterfall when he saw her head dipping lower, he sighed. It isn't his business and yet he still want to know. "There was a crossfire today, two years ago, between gangs. I was right in the middle of it all." He could hear the tremble in her voice. "Sure I can take of myself, but not between five bullets going at the same time in every direction." Suddenly, her body trembled behind him.

"That is when I was sure I was going die when one aimed directly at my heart. I had already been shot on the arm then as well." Her voice was slowly breaking and winced slightly. "That is w-when S-Sesshouamru-se-senpai came and took the bullet from behind when he pushed me away." She was breathing hard. "I-it nearly touched his heart. He almost died." Kagome sighed to calm her breathing, "And th-that is when I-I found out th-that h-he . . ." She just trailed off leaving it unfinished.

Kyo turned his head slightly and his eyes widened slightly when he saw a small tear hit the grass. "He told me he loves me." She whispered. "Just before he f-fell asleep." She started laughing lightly. "I didn't even know either until that day."

He froze in his place. Love her . . .? How much guys fell for her but him? He could tell that her seemingly two best friend has a thing for her so does Hatsuharu, how could she not notice this. Shaking his head, a smirk formed on his lips. Maybe she's ignorant, or completely a baka.

"So, I'm guessing you feel the same?" He asked tightening his in the process. Kyo can't help it. She just told him what had happened to her and now he wants to know.

"Anou . . ." She paused, "I'm not so sure. I had always thought of him as my aniki, but after that day, I don't know what to think."

After her confession, they stayed like that in silent. Her body stopped trembling, but he could feel the sadness seeping from her aura. "You know, your story seems to be a lie." He said. He only half believes it. He felt her elbow meeting his waist double over just for a second.

"That's why I never want to say it. No one ever believes that I caught between a fued of gangsters." He smirked.

"Exactly, what were you doing there?"

Kagome sighed. "I was there to deliver something to Inu Taisho-sensei." Her looked back at her once more as leaned her head on his neck to relax herself. "Instead, cars and motorcycles came around." He slightly raised his eyebrow in confusion when she stopped.

"And?"

"Well, I got sort of curious of what they were arguing." He almost fell over on his head. Well, that is a likely thing to do when it comes to Kagome. "Something about stealing from one another I think." She laughed lightly. "Soon after, they started pulling guns." Kyo felt her shifting slighty. "I was about to leave, but they circle around where I was hiding." She laughed lightly.

"They started accusing me of being a spy between another gang. I was too speechless to answer them too, but one thing is for sure," she snickered. "They all were fool when they thought I was a guy." A slight easy tension entered her. "So they accused of each other of bringing in a spy. That is when they started shotting across from one another. Of course I was in middle, so I got caught in it." She paused, "And you know the rest . . ."

"You know Kagome," he might as well tell her how he feels. Looking up at he sky as his head touched her head, he smiled. Even though he might get his heart broken, it doesn't mean he'll back down from stealing hers' like she did his. "I love you."


He couldn't see anything. Why is everything so dark? His hand twitched slightly to feel anything. He lift it up slowly until it reached his forehead. Slowly, he opened his eyes to only close it tightly again when he met with blazing white light. HE couldn't remember what happen. All he knows that he had held Kagome, then everything went black.

"Sesshoumaru-sama, you're awake!" He knew that voice. It Is his retainer Jaken, the little old man with wide mouth and green errie eyes. Squinting, he turned his head to see Jaken with tears streaming down his face.

He looked around and found Rin, the small girl sitting on the other side of him. What happened? Looking around, he slowly sat up as he saw a nurse leaving the room shouting for the doctor. He was in a . . .hospital? As he rubbed his forehead, he felt his hair slowly moving down his back. Images started to enter his mind.

Sesshoumaru remembered the gunshots . . . street gangs . . .and Kagome in the middle. His eyes widen. Turning to Jaken who wiped his tears away, he glared at the old man. "Kagome." He panted. "Where is she?" He practically growled at he old man.


She laughed at his small joke. "Oi, quite joking around baka." Sure it seems funny, but if she was any other girl, she would've taken it very seriously. But knowing him, he's probably joking around with her. She stood up and patted her rear as if an acting of dusting.

Slowly, turning around, she faced his back. Blinking in confusion as she saw his hands tighten into a fist, she fell back on her rear when he turned swiftly around her. His aura started blaze angry. He started mumbling inaudible words as he walked past her. When he was out of sight, Kagome tilted her head in confusion.

Nani? What just happen? Did she said something wrong? Raising an eyebrow, she slowly stood back up and stared at the forest where he gone off. He's heading back home. Anou, I hope he isn't mad at me. Sighing, her shoulders slumped. Kagome has no clue what is happening, but she just hope it gets better.

Furrowing her eyebrows, she turned around. She could feel something. It's far away though. A defeated sigh escaped her lips. Maybe it isn't the best time to go back to Shigure's house. Yuki seems tense and she thinks she got Kyo mad as well. Maybe I should just head back home to Tokyo. Though, that wouldn't solve anything either.

Stuffing her hands in her pocket, she left the forest and the Sohma's property. Looking down at her feet, she practically dragged herself. Kagome has no clue where she should head to, but let her feet take her. Deep in thought, she wanted to kick herself now. Why in the world would she tell Kyo about that? Maybe because I actually trust him . . . Kicking a can, she crossed the street when a sign says that she can walk.

As she reached the other side, she turned the corner while kicking the can to herself. She felt depressed again. Pouring out the story didn't help that well. It made her heart sink deeper with guilt. Yes, she feels guilty for putting her own senpai in the mess. Literally, curiosity CAN kill the cat.

In the corner of her eyes, she saw the park. With a frown, she lifted her feet and turned directly, heading to the park. It wasn't deserted, but the bench is. As she reached the bench, she stopped in her tracks as she stared at the bench. Her mouth gaped slightly, but when slowly the image faded. "Sesshoumaru-senpai . . .What DO I feel for you?" She questioned herself as she tucked a stray hair behind her ear.


It's been two years . . .He looked down at his lap. It's been two years since he went in a coma. He felt relief wash over him when his retainer told him that Kagome is alright. He smiled mentally as he pictures her face smiling at him. It faded once he felf a hand on his shoulder.

Looking up, he's met with the golden eyes of his otousan. "I'm glad you are back." His otousan smiled at him as he only nodded. Two years since that incident. Now that he remembered correctly . . .he told her. Furrowing his eyebrow, he felt a lump in his throat. Where is she right now?

"Feh."

He looked up and faced his otouto who leaned against the wall. A smirk formed on his otouto's lips. "Welcome back Fluffy-sama."

"Same goes for you, Inu Yasha no baka." He mocked imitating Kagome. Looking on the other side of the wall, he saw Kouga looking at him somewhat curiously. "Kouga?" He queston slightly. He would never thought that this boy would visit either. Considering, Inu Yasha and Kouga were rivals. No, they also were rivals of Kagome trying to be the better fighter.

"Glad your back with us Sesshoumaru-san." He looked towards his side and see the monk. Everyone is here, except for the one person he ACTUALLY wanted to see. Where is she?


Shigure picked up the ringing phone. "Moshi. Moshi." He said as his eyes cast off a dazed look. He's still thinkong of the novel he is ready to write.

"Oi! Shigure!" Instantly, Shigure grinned. It's his old friend Utsuri. Hopefully, he isn't calling to take Kagome back. He was furious when he heard his daughter was in the hospital a couple of times. "Is Kagome-chan there?" Shigure instantly paled. Oh no . . .

"Anou . . ." He replied rather nervously. "Why do you need her?"

He heard a small chuckle from the other line. "Are you worried that I'll taka Kagome-chan back? Well, rest a sure it is nothing of the sort, even though I truly misses her . . .Oh yeah! Did Kazuma-san came yet?"

Shigure smiled off. "Iie, he might arrive in a month later or so." Replied Shigure. "Oh yes, is that why you called?"

"No, I need to talk to Kagome-chan? Could you put her on the line?"

"She isn't here at the time." Shigure had to take the receiver from his ear as Utsuri yelle. "Anou . . .Why are you so urgent?"

There was silent in the land. Soon, a small sigh came from the phone. "I can't tell you, so when Kagome-chan comes, tell her to call my cell alright Shigure?"

"Hai."

"Ja."

"Ja." Relied Shigure as he hung up the phone. Walking through the hallway, he stopped and opened the door. He saw Kyo coming homding a bit flustered and angry as he sat on the porch.

He raised an eyebrow as he sat next to the rather dangerous guy. "Anou . . .Where is Kagome?" He asked.

"The hell with her! I actually told her and she thought it was a complete joke! I can't believe her." even though Kyo wasn't making sense, Shigure understands.

Waving his hand defensively, Shigure smiled nervously. "I'm just asking where she is? She was with you wasn't she?"

Kyo turned to him with a glare. "Hai, but I left her."

Shigure nodded. "Oh, I see." Ya might even have to wait till' tomorrow Utsuri, your daughter seems depressed as it is.


Hope you review even though it's a cliffie. I got lazy and stopped. hehe. Well, there ya go. Sesshoumaru is finally awake. Kagome is going to have to battle her heart when she meets with her senpai. Oh yeah, I finally found out what I might do to have her break the curse. I thought of it recently and it will just have to do. Anou . . .Any suggestion who she should turn out with? I was thinking of Kyo, then I thought Akito, then Sesshoumaru came to mind. I got a headache when I thought of the ending of this story. I have no clue who she should be with anymore; Kyo, Akito, or Sesshoumaru?
