The Tenth Scroll. . .
After The Battle. . .
Kagome sat by Inu-Yasha's bed,he was healing quickly ofcourse but that blade of Sesshou-Maru had actually really almost killed him.It had been two days since the battle against Sessho-Maru,and Kagome had stayed by his side the entire time.
Shippo was out trying to catch butterflies and Kagome giggled watching him.Kaede was making soup while talking to the children of the villiage.
~So. . . . . .Kuro-Aki and Inu-Yasha were very close as children. . . . . .~ thought Kagome looking at him while sitting on the bed which he was on. ~They. . .must have been close for Kuro-Aki to risk herself for him and for him to care so much to actually not boss her around. . .~
The birds outside cheeped as the sunlight shimmered,it was only very early morning.The birds sang harmonously,but to Kagome,it sounded sad and sorrowful.
~How can the world be so happy?. . .Everything and everyone else is so happy. . .all except for me. ..so why?Why can't I just fit in???Why did I ever follow the stupid cat into the well?. . .. . .Inu-Yasha. . .your so headstrong and annoying. . .I really hate him,but I can't make up my mind about him. -"Oh really.Do you think I wouldn't recognize the stench of the woman who killed me!?"- But. ..then again. . .he's always been so abnocious. . .and rude. . .he doesn't really care about anyone. . .all he wants to use me for is a shard detector. . .he said it himself. . .~
The wind blows through the trees making a chiming sound as the children giggle loudly.
~So. . .why do I always find my way back here?What keeps me coming back?~ she thought again,glancing outside.~What is it that brings me back here?. . . . . .he's such a jerk. . . . . .he only thinks of himself. . .I hate him so much!..............................~
A voice echoed through her head,'Then why are you sitting by him now?'
Kagome burried her face in her hands and began to cry.She was so confused,so hurt,her mind felt so clouded!She didn't know what to hink.She cried for a good long bit.
Kaede came in suddenly,"Hm?What's wrong Kagome?"
"I. . it's nothing. . . . . ."muttered Kagome.
Kaede shrugged,then sighed and walked back out again.
Kagome stayed there then whiped her tears off with the sleeve of her shirt and calmed down.
~Inu-Yasha. . . . . .how can I tell you about Kuro-Aki???How could she be so strong and valiant to save him like that?She really cares about him. . .he. .. he'll kill me if I tell him. . . . . .~ Kagome looked down and at the motionless sleeping boy then sighed and bent over him,then,before realizing what she was doing,she slowly bent down and kissed him.She felt a rush in her chest,like butterflies but much better and then she turned back to sitting and closed her eyes tightly.
"How. . .can I tell him how I feel?Never the less. . .. . . .tell him that Kuro-Aki is-"she paused in the middle of her sentence to see a figure limping towards the villiage off of the path from the woods,followed by a smaller figure,it was blurry but she could still see partly,"Hm?It. . .it can't be. . ."
Kagome stood up and ran down the path and the three met half way.It was Kuro-Aki ofcourse,it was so obvious even though she looked beat.She was bruised and cut and slashed and looked like she had been through a furnace and a weed cutter,but she wore a weak smile on her face.
"K. . .Kuro-Aki!?But how!?!?!!?"gasped Kagome staring in amazement.
"D. . .do you really think that I. . .would die that easily?"asked Kuro-Aki,"Never. . . . . . . . ."
Kuro-Aki clutched her side tightly,wincing in pain.A large bloodstain came from her side,either way she had blood all over from those crystals and all,the Tetsunami was in it's sheathe by her ofcourse.
"Kuro-Aki!"gasped Kagome again,"You're badly hurt!"
"I know. . .but. . is. . . is Inu-Yasha alright?"asked Kuro-Aki,tears filled in her eyes.
She suddenly fainted from blood loss.
"KURO-AKI!"yelled Kagome quickly,"KAEDE!COME QUICKLY!"
