Unbroken Silence: Prolouge
Disclaimer: *Raises megaphone to mouth* I Do Not Own Inu- Yasha!!!!!.........at least not that you know of.....mwahahahahaha!*Glances from side to side and cheaks to make sure Inu-Chan is safly tied up in her closet*
It was a particularly hot day in July when it all began..... Kagome lay suspended in a large tube of frozen chemicals. People in white coats hovered about, watching the test subjects intently. Kagome was afraid of being dead...she feared what lay waiting for her beyond. One year after Inu- Yasha and her journey was over she froze herself in a scientific program. She never knew what became of Inu-Yasha after that and....frankly, she didn't care. She couldn't even remember his face anymore......she did try, though. Kagome knew the sideaffects of living for thousands of years.....almost complete memory loss. She didn't want to loose all her memories so she told them to awake her early........They did. She awoke to a world not so diffrent from the one she knew well. She was in New York, though. She was extremely apprehensive about showing herself to others so she moved to China town. People were like her there...she didn't talk to any of them, she just wanted the comfort of others around her. Many thigs had happened since she went to sleep...more than she could count. Yet, one stood vividly out in her mind.....the sun was sceduled to explode. No one realy thought it would happen anytime soon......but they were so very wrong.....
Unbroken Silence Chapter 1: Almost Evermore
It was November 12, 3256 when this whole thing happened. Kagome moved her glistening black hair to cover her ears as she walked through China Town. Everyone payed little heed to Kogome for, like them, her eyes did slant and her hair was as black as pitch. Kagome had always gone to school with Japanise and lived in Japanise society yet,.....she felt unwanted. The other people of China Town outcasted her slightly for she never, ever socialized with people. For year scientists had predicted that the Sun would explode, and every day the chances were more and more likely. Kagome paid the cashier for her paper and turned to the articles about the Sun. She looked from the weather faded picture to the real Sun. It glowed a very dim red, pulsing like the beats of a worried heart. She shivered slightly, pulling her black jacket closer around herself. She took one last look up before starting her way home. As she waved for a taxi a single hand covered her eyes. "Guess who!" whispered a voice into her ear. She turned swiftly to embrace her first love since she was unfrozen, Kaziuki. "So how goes the matter of the the Sun?" asked Kaziuki curiously. She glanced at the folded paper in her hand and then to the Sun once more. "Oh......I fear it will not be long now before it explodes.......every day the rythmic tattoo of the throbing Sun gets faster, staining the sky with a pulsing red glow......," replied Kagome solemnly. Then came the rain, pouring like tears from heaven. Umbrelas popped up every where, creating a miniture sea of color and patterns. Just as the first few droplets hit them a taxi pulled up. They hopped in, laughing, letting the paper slowly fall into the flowing waters of the gutter. She stopped her laughter and sighed as she starred out the fogged up widow. She watched the gently throbbing Sun between come cloud that hung lazily on the sky. Yet......something was wrong. She rolled down the rain blurred window and leaned out, still looking at the Sun. The cold droplets of rain slapped against her face, Kagome ignoring the sting. The sun was growing......no.....exploding! Thousands upon thousands of people stopped in their tracks to watch it in an awestruck stupor. Though it usually would have taken years for the stones of fire to reach Earth, there was now air in space. This made the pieces fall to earth like a dead bird.....Moultin balls of lava rained down upon the city, letting the neon signs fall down. A particularly large rock hit the taxi , causing the driver to loose control. Kagome and Kaziuki tumbled out of the taxi and into the crowded streets. Kagome gasped as she looked up to see a neon sign plumiting towards her, a rain of pink sparks trailing after.She knew it was too big to avoid so she stood, ready to accept her fate. After all, she had lived for hundreds of years.The sign landed on her, millions of pink shards tinkling aon the street. She opened her tear filled eyes, expecting to be long dead. She looked around herself. It was dark yet, the echos of chaos still surounded her. She lolled her head to the side to see Kaziuki..... he wasn't moving. A tiny light sparkled in the middle of this small, round room.....then she realized....This was not a room at all but a fallen satalite dish that shielded her from the destruction around her.Suddenly, the weight of the sign grew, hurling her into cold darkness....
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
When Kagome awoke from a fitfull, feverish sleep she could see stars. She also heard voices...faint echoing voices...the kind you would only hear in your dreams. The voices were closer by now, allowing her to make out bit and pieces of what they said. "Might not make it.....Completly oblivious.....managed to move that dish but, .......can't... sign....take it apart? ......no...that might take..." At that point she stopped listening to them. She didn't want to listen anymore, just the strain of listening brought on migranes. She was cold....it was night, late, and cold.....she felt horrible. Small shivers resounded up her spine as she looked around. Her feet and legs tingled as if they had been asleep for a very long time. She finally heard the pitter-patter of people running and it was getting louder. She heard a voice, "She's awake! Bring something hot to drink!" Kagome moaned slightly as she tried to free herself from the neon bondage.She felt a cool hand on her forehead, nulling the wild thrashing. She wanted out so very badly but, it hurt to struggle so she just lay..... She kept her eyes closed tightly, banishing the fire light that troubled her so...She heard the grunts of imense strain before she felt the wieght leaving her legs. She opened her eyes to see people all around her sifting through ruble and burning trashcan fires. She saw that it was mostly the young littering the streets, lots fewer adults. A woman with a strange feeling about her aproached Kagome with a steaming cup in hand. She spoke, "I am Zirlinde, I can help you...." Zirlinde shifted and knelt near Kagome. She blew on the cup before saying, "Drink this to ease the pain." Kagome gladly accepted the drink and sipped the contents reflectivly. She licked a lingering droplet from the lip of the glass as she dwelled on the happiness it brought her She leaned against her former neon prison and asked, "Where's Kaziuki?" An elderly woman who looked very familiar replied, " *sigh*......he left to go find hiss family by sifting through the rubble." Kagome pulled a blanket close around herself and murmured, "Curse the cold and all its blights...." After much savoring of the drink, she realized her lap lay bare, her red skirt torn to shreds by the pink shards. But...she didn't care anymore......
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Kaziuki moved aside some rubble to reviel a white door carved into the cement. He ran his fingers across the silver wards imbeded into the ground itself. A voice from within the door called his name, spoke to his every being. He didn't know what lay beyond, nor did he care as he pressed his ear to the stone. This voice wasn't really a voice at all but a low, rumbling growl.... The smell of burning pine filled his nostrils, blanketing him with warmth. He fell asleep there until the morrow...
* * * * * Two Years Later * * * * *
Kagome crouched behind a snow drift with her gun, barely daring to breath. She positioned the guna nd peered over her drift of snow. She targeted the demon wolf strait at its ugly head. Aresounding *boom* echoed across the plains followed by a loud *thud*. She walked over to the lifeless wolf, feeling no pity for this creature of evil. Kagome drug it by its tail back to her house. Technology was pretty much the same again. Mostly because only half the planet was pelted with balls of lava. The only problem was, because of the eternal night, demons and the like were coming out to claim back the lands stolen from them. For untold centuries they slept in hibernation, waiting for the predicted Time of Almost Evermore. Now that time has come, bringing forth powers of darkness unimaginable by mere mortal alone. Kagome opened the door to her home, snow swirling in at her feet. She threw the wolf heavily onto a metal slab next to the door. She heard soft, slow breathing coming from over near the couch.....next to the warm fire. His tiny dog ears twithched slightly, a sign he knew Kagome was there. He flexed his razor sharp claws in contentment, beconing her to his side. (Inu- Chan!!!! yea !Yea!YEA! ^.^ )
Next time the not-so-feudal fairy tale begins again! What happens when Naraku comes back for more!? A bonus episode that tells most of how Inu- Yasha comes to live with Kagome! Plus a special bonus super amazing new opening theme song! Next time, The Release of Inu-Yasha! See ya there!
Note from Nadoko: I'm so happy! I did something with my life! Aren't you proud!? *cough cough* Anyway I really hope you all liked it for I poured my soul into this story! For those of you who are mean and stuck up, don't blame me, blame the voices. They told me to write it! *Mystical Echoing Voice: BURN THE HOUSE DOWN! Down! down...... *Hits head* Shutup, Larry!
