Note: I don't own Inu-Yasha. Rumiko Takahashi / Shonen Sunday do, and I am in no way making any sort of profit from it.
More notes: I am not entirely sure if this coincides with the manga or not. Please be open-minded when you review it, and enjoy. Also, I apologize to Miroku fans, as I couldn't fit him in this one.
In Dreams…
An Inu-Yasha Fanfiction by Recca_kun (
Prologue: A Premonition
Inu-Yasha watched over the campsite, as the party went to sleep. Shippo, who had apparently decided Inu-Yasha's leg would make a great pillow, was snoring loudly.
"Feh. This kid sure is loud for someone so small." Inu-Yasha mused. "If this kid keeps me up all night, I swear…" he said with a clenched fist for emphasis. He scooted over, placing a hand under Shippo's head to keep it from hitting the ground. Inu-Yasha really didn't feel like dealing with an angry kitsune this late in the evening.
Inu-Yasha's gaze next fixated itself on Kagome.
Kagome…
She was smiling serenely. While awake, she was a spunky girl with attitude that Inu-Yasha loved to hate; (Or perhaps, hated to love) but now, she was an angel, her smile making the whole world seem like a better place. She was still in her School Uniform, with her knees tucked into her chest, like a cat's.
And yet, it still hurt him. Kagome was exactly like her… like Kikyo. Not just in looks, but in spirit as well. Inu-Yasha knew it wasn't a coincidence, as much as he wished it were. He tried to separate himself from her at every chance he got. But she just kept pressing him, and it was becoming harder and harder every day, as he found himself waning to stay by her side, and lose himself in her mind.
Tonight, he would do just that.
