are MINE! I also don't own Sleeping Beauty, this is just my rendition of the story!

Sleeping Princess

Chapter Three: Princess Kagome's Mistake
Kagome awoke to someone standing over her. Reflexivly she threw her arm up into the air and nailed
the person in the nose practically breaking it. When she realized that she slammed the palm of her
hand into the woman's nose, the same woman who had told her she was a princess and had taken her
from her home in the woods before she could explain to her savior, she cringed.
"How could you bring me here?! I don't belong here! I'm not a Princess and I don't belong in a
palace!" Kagome cried out, her tears renewing themselves, for everytime she closed her eyes she thought
of her meeting that she couldn't have with her savior anymore.
"I was doing what I had promised I would do, I promised ye mother and father I would bring ye back
on ye sixteenth birthday, just to keep ye safe. I also promised that nothing would happen to ye
when I brought ye back." Kaede said.
"I hate you! I hate all of you! I want to see the man that saved my life from Koga and now because
of you I can't! I HATE YOU!" the young Princess screamed at the top of her lungs scaring Kaede out
of the room.
"I know I'm not going to be helping ye, but ye are getting married tomorrow." the old woman said gently.
"WHAT?!?! I AM NOT, I REPEAT: NOT GETTING MARRIED TOMORROW! I'M NOT GETTING MARRIED TO SOMEONE I DON'T
KNOW NOR DO I LOVE! I AM MARRYING FOR LOVE! DO YOU HEAR ME?! LOVE!" Kagome screamed so loud that pictures
fell off the walls in the room where she stood screaming.
"I heard ye, Princess. But ye must marry. Ye will grow to love him. Trust in I." Kaede said and watched as
Kagome stomped over to the bed, flung herself upon it and cried. "I'm sorry. There is nothing I can do to
help ye." the old woman said and left, closing the door softly with a click.
Kagome lay on her bed crying for a long time, just crying. Her sobs could be heard just outside the bedroom
door and could break the hearts of anyone who heard them. They didn't know what she was crying about, and only
three people knew she was there really. Kikyo, Kaede, and Kagome. They were the only three who knew where she
was, the King didn't know she was back yet, Kaede had decided that he shouldn't know until the danger had passed.
The King actually assumed that his daughter and the old Miko were on their way to the palace just then. And that
they wouldn't get back until the next night. He, King Sesshomaru, Queen Rin, and Prince Inuyasha, were the only
ones residing in the palace, or so they thought.
Kaede, knowing that the Prince Inuyasha and King Sesshomaru would be able to smell them there put up a magical
barrier to keep the Inu youkai out of the wing where they resided. She then made sure that Kagome was locked
into her room for the night, just so she couldn't go wandering off, just for her safety. She tried to locate
any spells that had been put up that weren't hers, but she hadn't been able to, so she just assumed everything
was okay.
Thats the problem with assumptions...
Kagome till lay crying on her bed when she saw the red glow come from the wall behind her vanity. Standing
slowly she walked over to the light, almost in a trance. The wall then opened up and allowed her to pass
through it. Walking down the hall and up some stairs Kagome continued to follow the dreary red light that
had formed, just following it. Where the light stopped, Kagome stopped, and stared at what lay in front of
her.
The room was large and had a cushion on the ground in front of a Koto. Slowly walking to the Koto, still
in a trance like state Kagome sat on the cushion and was about to touch it when something inside her head,
something that sounded like Kaede, screamed at her not to.
Kaede had been in her room when her warning bells went off. Jumping from her bed she ran as fast as her
feeble body would allow to Kagome's room. Pushing open the door she saw the red light and followed it
down the same path the young Princess had. Screaming ahead of her not to touch anything, Kaede hoped
that she would make it to the place in time to stop Kagome.
"Go ahead. Touch it." Kanna said, her white hair and skin making her look albino.
Kagome finally gave into the trance like light and voice and started to strum the strings of the Koto.
She continued to strum the strings until she pricked her fingers on them and bled. Once she started
bleeding she felt the zap of the magic go into her hands and she fell to the ground in a heap, just
as Kaede came running into the room.
"No!" Kaede screamed and ran over to the fallen Princess looking down at her as Kanna disappeared in a
flash of light.
"Your too late." the albino girl's voice echoed in the room as Kaede shook the Princess, trying to awaken
her.
"Princess Kagome..." Kaede said and then remembered, Prince Inuyasha! She had to get to him before
Kikyo did.
Little did she know, Inuyasha was being stupid and was about to be captured before Kaede could get
to him.
