Bunny ~ thanks for the review. Defiantly see spirited away, wonderful movie. glad you're enjoying it, I'm actually sticking rather close to the SA plot, with some changes, but the thought of mixing up Kagome and Kikkyo did cross my mind hmm, we'll see
Everyone else ~ hello? isn't anyone else reading this? a couple reviews would be nice =) onegai?
Opening her eyes and turning over, Kagome was just in time to see a shadow with dog-ears hop over the edge of the balcony.
When the first rays of the sun crept into the room Kagome got up. *my clothes are gone!* she thought in shock. "Where are they?" she cried. Sango lifted her head, "Sent out, since you work here, you no longer need them. Now go back to sleep." Sango plunked her head back down and pulled the covers over it.
Kagome acted like she was going back to sleep. *What will I do without my clothes?* After Sango was asleep she crept out the door, ran down the hall and took the elevator up to the ground floor. After going down a few more halls and around a few corners, Kagome found the main door. Stepping out she found herself on the bridge.
She headed across and stopped on the other side, looking for Yasha. Suddenly she felt a tap on her shoulder, spinning around she saw Yasha standing behind her grinning. He looked human again. Kagome reached up and gave a small tug on his black hair. "Why do you look like this now?" she asked.
Yasha pointed back over her shoulder, turning Kagome could see that the field had once again appeared and the restaurants were no where to be seen. "We're in the realm of the spirits, things change at night." he explained. "So do I. Come on, lets go see your mom."
Kagome nodded and followed him as he set off down a small set of stairs she hadn't noticed that went down to the water. Once they were down, Kagome could see a cave under the bridge that couldn't be seen from the bathhouse. They headed in.
The cave was dimly lit and lined with stalls, filled with wolves. Kagome gasped. "There are so many!" Yasha nodded. "Everybody who pisses Kikkyo off, and she gets pissed off a lot." He walked past a few stalls and stopped in front of one. Kagome ran up next to him. "Here they are." he said. Kagome peered into the stall and saw two wolves inside.
"Mama! Souta!" she cried. The wolves lunged forward, snarling. Kagome leapt back. The strange shards in their foreheads glowed fiercely. Kagome turned to ask Yasha what the shards were, but was interrupted. "Hey! What are you doing to my wolves, puppy?" a voice called.
Kagome and Yasha turned, someone was standing in the shadows of the cave. (a/n 3 guesses who =P) Kagome heard a strange noise and realized that Yasha was growling. "We're looking at 'em, you fucking a problem with that?" he practically snarled. "If you're involved puppy, then yes, I do have a problem." the person answered.
Kagome looked at Yasha, who looked quite angry. "Who are you?" she asked, stepping out from behind Yasha. With a rush of wind, the person in the shadows was in front of her holding her hand. "Who's this beautiful girl with you puppy?" Kagome looked at him in surprise. He had long black hair, like Yasha's, only it was pulled into a pony-tail. He had pointy ears and Kagome could see a tail behind him.
"Feh." was all Yasha said, as he shoved the person away from her. "My name's Mei." Kagome said. The guy grinned. "I'm Kouga. Why are you hanging around with this loser puppy?" Yasha stepped in front of her. "I was just showing her around. Stay away from this one ya bastard."
Kouga laughed. "What do you want with this one? You look like you're busy enough." he said, pulling down the collar of Yasha's shirt. Yasha jerked away, but not before Kagome saw a round, mouth- sized bruise on his neck.
"Fuck off wimpy wolf." He snapped, fixing his shirt. Kagome could feel tears forming. *He wouldn't, not with Kikkyo! Would he?* Just then her mother and brother growled. Kagome looked at them and couldn't take anymore. She turned and ran out of the cave, trying to get away before they saw her cry.
She ran down a path by the waters edge and around a bend in the bank. She dropped to her knees by the waters edge and started to cry. She felt a touch on her shoulder and turned. Yasha was crouching next to her. He reached a hand to her face and brushed one of her tears away with his finger, then he grabbed her chin and turned her head to look at him. "It's ok to cry y'know." he said softly. Kagome looked at him for a moment, and then threw herself at him. She buried her head in his chest and felt his arms go around her.
She cried into his chest until she ran out of tears. Breathing hard she pulled back. Yasha pulled his arms away and put his hands on her shoulders. "Better?" he asked. Kagome nodded. He smiled at her, "Good." He let go of her shoulders and settled back against the bank, watching the river. Kagome did the same.
After a few minutes of silence Yasha pulled something out of his shirt and handed it to Kagome. "Here ya go." She took it in surprise, "My clothes!" she gasped. He smiled at her.
"I saved em from the trash, you'll need em when you go back to your world." he said. Kagome unfolded them and something fell out. She picked it up, it was the card from Hojo. "Kagome" she whispered, reading it. "That's right! My name's Kagome, I had almost forgotten." she looked at Yasha in confusion.
"That's how Kikkyo controls people. When they sign the contract, she takes their names. Unless she decides to let you go, you can't ever leave if you forget what your name is." Yasha explained. Kagome repeated it to herself silently, making sure to remember her name. "Don't let anyone know you remember it though, Kikkyo will take it again." Yasha added.
Kagome looked at him, "Thank you, I won't, and I won't forget it either." she said. Yasha nodded. "Good. It's funny that I remembered yours, when I forgot mine." he said, sounding sad. Kagome's eyes widened in surprise. "You forgot your name?" she asked. Yasha nodded again. "Yeah, I'm stuck here for good."
"Maybe Kikkyo will let you go." she said hopefully. Yasha laughed. "No, not Kikkyo, she'll never let me leave." Kagome's eyes moved to the bruise on his neck. "I guess you wouldn't want to leave her anyway." she said. Yasha looked at her in surprise. "What gives you that idea?"
Kagome blushed. "Well you two, I mean, um." Yasha realized what she was looking at. "Oh" he said, putting a hand over it. "No, it's not like that at all. I hate Kikkyo, she took my name, and my freedom." On that last part he moved his hand briefly to a beaded necklace he wore. "I'm not going anywhere, but I'll make sure you do, Kagome." He smiled again. "You better get going, before they see you're gone."
Kagome nodded. "Yeah, I'm pretty tired too." The two stood up and Yasha walked with her to the bridge. "Seeya later." he said. On impulse, Kagome gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "Bye!" she called, running across the bridge. Once she was on the other side, she turned back, but Yasha was gone. Then she noticed something in the sky, quickly moving away. *It's Kirara, wait no, there's no fire.* she thought. *it kind of looks like a giant dog* She watched it until it flew out of sight. Then she turned and ran back into the bathhouse.
