*ONE YEAR LATER* conscience? *Yeah? * They'll figure that out when they
start reading. *::blank look:: oh*
Chapter 1: It's been a year now
~It has been a year since Kagome died, and the gang is still together. The
quest for the Shikon no Tama is almost complete, Naraku is dead, and the
only person who has the remainder of the jewel is Kikyou. Inuyasha and the
others have been searching for the dead priestess for about 2 months now.
But for this weekend, they are putting the quest on hold, for they have
come back to Kaede's village to visit Kagome's grave.~
~Inuyasha has acted the same since she died, but inside he misses Kagome
very much; he just doesn't show it. ~
Kaede- Oh great, ye has arrived for the anniversary, I have prepared thee a
meal.
Inuyasha-(nodded) Hey, Kaede.
~The others walked in and sat down eating their rice and tea. None said
much; they hated their reason for being here. Kaede put a fake smile on and
brought Shippo into the kitchen.~
Inuyasha-(to Sango and Miroku) I'm gonna go outside, I'm not very hungry.
Inuyasha-(thinking) Man, I miss Kagome's ramen.
~Inuyasha walked out into the evening.~
~Sango and Miroku knew where Inuyasha was going, it was very obvious. He
was going to "visit" Kagome.~
Sango- Should we follow him?
Miroku- Nah, not now. We will ask him later.
Sango- Kay.
~Miroku and Sango had always wanted to know what happened the night Kagome
was injured, one year ago. But they never had gotten around to asking
Inuyasha about it; he was very sensitive about the subject. They knew he
felt guilty and responsible for her death. So they sat there for about a
half an hour before deciding to leave.~
~Inuyasha quietly walked through the village catching some stares, to the
big grassy field. He was nervous about going; it was the first time since
the day she was buried. He thought back to the day he had to say goodbye.
His face winced in sadness.~
~He came upon the big open field and stared at her grave about 50 feet
away. His stomach turned over. He picked up the pace and let out a sigh
when he reached it. He walked over and stood to the left of the tombstone,
his rosary beads were still there, but the were faded and worn. He let out
a chuckle and then a single tear strode down his cheek as he began to
reflect on Kagome.~
Inuyasha- Kagome, I'm.so sorry.
~Miroku and Sano stood behind him~
Miroku- Inuyasha?
~Inuyasha quickly turned around.~
Inuyasha- Whaaaat?
Sango-We.er.we kind of.
~Sango had trouble spitting out the words. She was afraid Inuyasha would
get mad and storm off. She didn't want to ruin their chances.~
Inuyasha-(agitated) WHAAAT?
Miroku- We want to know exactly what happened to Kagome that night.
~Miroku said the words quickly and backed up, just waiting to be yelled
at.~
Sango-(with more confidence) Yeah, Kaede never really explained it very
good.
~They stared at the Hanyou waiting for an answer, but his head was down.
Inuyasha was very surprised at this question, but the moment they asked it,
his thoughts went straight to when Kagome was hit by the purple flame. ~
Inuyasha-(face now looking at them)You.want to know? Just.what.really
happened?
~Miroku and Sango looked at each other.~
Miroku-Yeah.
Sango- Er.we really wanna know what happened.
~Inuyasha thought for a moment, it was only fair; they were her friends,
they should need to know. He also thought going over the events might bring
him closure as well as pain. ~
Inuyasha-(hesitantly) Er.fine.but I might as well show you..
Inuyasha- Sango, hop onto my back.Miroku, you have to keep up.
~Inuyasha was going to take them to the spot where it happened, about ΒΌ
mile into the forest. This was more than Miroku and Sango expected, but
Inuyasha wasn't just doing it for them.~
***What or WHO is he doing it for?? * ::rolling eyes:: We'll find out soon
enough * ::Sigh:: you fun-sucker
start reading. *::blank look:: oh*
