PLEASE READ BEFORE BEGINNING CHAPTER! Seriously, read it!
AN: Hi, sorry about the late update. I've just had a lot on my plate, so I've had very little time to actually write. But I'm here now, so just go on reading whatever's next!
Now, I'm going to address something that seems to have become a misconception for this story. I think I didn't explain it correctly, so I'm going to explain now. When I said I was going to borrow details from the manga mostly, I literally meant that I would only be BORROWING. As in, details from the actual happenings would only be referred to, and very little would actually have Kagome included into the plot. (If that made any sense right now…) This isn't meant to be a long story and it was never meant to be so in the first place.
This isn't a story where Kagome gets integrated into the MKR timeline, no that's an idea I have for another story that won't be out for quite some time. But the summary should've been an indicator of sorts as to what the story was going to be about. Kagome will be an outsider to the actual events of the MKR series, but at the same time, she'll have a subtle impact, so to speak, for the first few chapters, though it'll make no difference in what happens. She'll be woven into the after-story, rather than the main arcs.
I truly apologize for the confusion! Ah, and please don't mind it so much if the chapter sounds a bit wonky, I'm getting back into writing after not being able to do so for a while.
Anyway, I hope you all like this and please remember to review, but if you've nothing polite to say then don't bother saying anything at all!
~A Match of Two Souls~
oO-A Bad Feeling-Oo
'Eugh! Something feels all fishy about today,' Kagome frowned as she brushed out her hair. 'Something big is going to happen, I just know it! And I know I won't like it!'
Since the moment she'd woken up, the raven-haired teen had felt something ominous in the air. She didn't know what it could be or who if that was actually the case. But she could tell it was an omen, and a bad one at that. It was the same feeling she'd gotten just before a certain Centipede Yōkai had pulled her into the Bone Eater's Well on her fifteenth birthday.
Someone was going to get pulled into something and the outcome probably wouldn't be good.
Of that Kagome was certain.
-Sakurakawa Junior High-
"Have fun on your trip, Hikaru!" Kagome waved at her fiery-haired cousin as she ran through the school gates.
"I will!" Hikaru said over her shoulder. "I'll see you after school, Neechan!"
Once the youngest Shidou was out of sight, the petite Miko allowed her smile to drop.
The ominous feeling she'd had the entire morning through only intensified when Hikaru woke, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed as always. It couldn't be a coincidence, Kagome knew, because something about Hikaru had changed. Her aura showed as much.
It felt as though something laid dormant within her. Warm, but Strong. Fiery, but calm.
Kagome could only come to one conclusion: Magic was beginning to emerge from within her little cousin.
No, it was no coincidence. There were no coincidences in the world, only that which is to be. However much Kagome may wish for Hikaru to never get involved in anything dangerous, Fate would just drag her into it anyway and there would be nothing she could do to stop it.
Hitsuzen would make it so.
(AN: It's CLAMP, I couldn't resist! XD)
'Kami-sama,' Kagome closed her eyes, 'Please give Hikaru the strength to face whatever Fate has planned for her.'
Adieu,
TsukiyoTenshi
