Blood Drops of War
Prologue: Dreams of Death
By Arissia
I do not own Inu-Yasha or any of the characters from the Magna I am about to use. I do however, own some characters in this story. ^^ They are mine so don't take them. P.s. This is my first Inu-Yasha fic don't be too flamed by it.
Kagome looked about her. It was too quite out in the village. 'Where is everyone? Its not even 6 yet?' Her mind pondered. She looked about her. 'I don't see Inu-Yasha at all. Or Shippo or Miroku?' She began to get worried. She then felt everything go black. "What?" She questioned the air. "Kikyo…You will die…" Kagome turned and saw someone. A set of someones actually. 2 people on the right and one on the left. The single man on the left had a cloak on. "Kikyo…You will die…" He continued to moan out to her. "Who?" She looked at the other two. They were both clearly girls that much she was sure of. She took a step towards the girls to get a better view of them, but a flash of light surrounded her vision. "AH!" She screamed as she fell deeper into a black hole.
***Real world***
"KAGOME!" Shippo began to shake his friend. The girl's eyes remained tightly shut. "Inu-Yasha! Miroku! Help!" The little Kitsune raced over to his friends trying to get someone up. "Wha? What's up stupid Pup?" Inu-Yasha rubbed some sleep from his eyes. "Something's wrong with Kagome!" The tiny foxling cried and pointed at the young girl who was shivering and crying out in her sleep. "Kagome?!" Inu-Yasha placed his hand on her forehead. "She's got a high fever. And she's drenched." Inu-Yasha ran to the near by river stream. "Wake up Miroku pup!" Inu-Yasha raced beside the pup carrying a small pale of icy water. "Hurry!" He told the Kitsune. "Then go and find the witch Kadea!" He told the demon boy. Shippo nodded and did as told.
***Dream world***
"Someone help me…" Kagome pleaded with the darkness. Trying to find even the tinniest light. "Its alright…" Came a soothing voice. A young girl stood before her. She wore a white kimono and had black hair that found its way down to her knees. She had bright brown eyes. "Who are you?" Kagome looked at the girl. She noticed a small dagger at the girl's side as well as a pouch. "I'm a friend." The girl smiled. "No more worries Lady Kagome." The girl smiled. "What? How did you?" Kagome stopped and looked about her. "Its alright…Ryu can't harm us in here. Now Kagome I need you to wake up." The girl smiled. "Ryu? Wake up? Am I in a dream…" The girl giggled. "I guess you could call it that." She smirked. "Now wake up Lady Kagome. Wake up." The last part came out in a whisper as a flash of bright white light filled Kagome's vision.
***Real world***
Kagome's eyes blinked open and she looked up to see Inu-Yasha dabbing a bit of water on her forehead. "Inu-Yasha?" She choked out. The half demon teen sighed as relief filled his eyes. She noticed Miroku and Shippo hanging over. Feeling rather hot Kagome almost closed her eyes but stopped when a voice in her head cried out, 'Don't! That is Ryu! Do not allow his sleep spell to work! Fight Kagome! Do not give in do not let Ryu kill thy!' It screamed at her. She stopped. 'Ryu?' Her mind questioned. "Don't go back to sleep Kagome!" Came Kadea's voice. "You mustn't. An evil spirits there and will surely kill you!" Kadea looked at the young priest whom had spoke. "Do not go to sleep!" Kadea repeated. Kagome fought to stay awake for so long, why did she have to stay awake like this. "But I'm sleepy…" She moaned. "Kagome, please…" Shippo crawled on top of Inu-Yasha's lap. "Alright…I'll (cough) Try to stay awake." Kagome looked up at Inu-Yasha, pain clearly in her eyes.
***Dream world inside Kagome's mind***
"Leave her be Ryu!" The girl from before stood near a man in samurai costume only all black. Not a pinch of skin could be seen. "Why should I? Hmm…? My lord Naraku ordered this girl and her friends to be killed." He replied. "There is nothing you or your friend Hotaru, can do to stop it Miko no Ti." He laughed as the girl charged forward with her dagger in hand. "NO!!!" One of them screamed 2 seconds later. Blood covered the area where Ryu had once stood…
TBC….
