"You're my maid Kagome! You're my slave Kagome! Don't talk back to your master Kagome! MASTER MY ASS!!"
It was nighttime already. All the servants were busy at the kitchen preparing supper. All except for a very angry Kagome, trouncing through the servant's wing to get her things.
The maid turned to the very corner of the wing where there lays a very small and run down closet.
The door looked ancient. Almost if dug up from the ground itself! Half of it was rotting!! Inside of it was even worse. It was small and dark, the only light source was a small candle by the door. There was a sour smell in the air. Every corner of the room was consists of molds from the leaking on the roof. There wasn't much in there. A small futon lay in the middle of the room, a few buckets and old supplies where stacked on a broken shelf, and an old leather binding book lying next to the candle.
This was her room. She's been living in this damn run down closet for half of her life. She asked for a servant's room like the other maids but NOOOOOO!!!
'The other servant's rooms were full,' said Lady Kikyo.
'Just make use of this one until one comes available.' Said Lady Kikyo.
Kagome rolled her eyes at the thought of what her master said. For SEVEN YEARS she's been stuck with this rat eaten shack! SEVEN YEARS they couldn't find an empty room! Kikyo was just lying to her, she knew very well that there were plenty of available rooms. But she didn't want to press the subject to get her master angry. That wouldn't help her much. She knew that from experience.
There was a soft sigh as Kagome glanced at the closet size room once more.
It wasn't the most luxurious of all places but it was still her home.
Well, she thought to herself, mind as well get going, or I'll get in trouble for fooling around on task.
She grabbed the red-leathered book on her pillow and an old eagle feather quilt.
The black haired girl looked down at her only possessions. A rather sad expression plastered on her face.
A book and a quilt, my only treasures.my life sucks..
"KAGOME HIGURASHI!!"
The maid jumped at the shrieking voice.
"HURRY UP AND GET A MOVE ON!! THE MISTRESS WANTS YOU OUT OF HERE WHEN SHE COMES BACK!! SCRAM!! YOU HEAR ME SCRAM!!!"
I bet she does.
"I'm going! I'm going!" she wield, dragging her already tired feet along the floor.
The main entrance of the castle was getting full. There were guest approaching in every direction. Lights filled the castle, bring life into its silent walls. Laughters and toast of sake traveled from the main hall to the corner back hall of the servant wing.
Don't they EVER get sick of this? They do this EVERY night!
The maid headed into the now empty kitchen. She walked swiftly as her fingers pointed to every stove. Her lips moving nonstop, mutters and mumbles upon them.
"..12, 13, 14!!"
She stopped at the 14th stove.
The stove was old and huge! One of those old fashion stoves that can cook ten meals at once. It was covered in rust, looks as if haven't been used in a while.
Fingers wrapped around its greasy handle. A sudden CLUNK was heard as its door swung open.
Kagome covered her nose. The dust was overwhelming.
As the ashes cleared, a path way could be seen. A small passage, narrow enough for one person.
Kagome got in and closed the door behind her.
There was another CLUNK and everything was swallowed by darkness.
The young girl's heart jumped as darkness took her.
No matter how many times I been down this passage it still creeps me out! She thought as she started to move forward. Her hands pressed against the wall, feeling her way.
It's getting dustier each time I come here!
*** Flash Back ***
Standing by the stove was an old cook. And next to her was a young Kagome. The cook looked at her in disgust.
"Lady Kikyo is right! You are a filthy child!" She pressed her nail against Kagome's cheek "Look at all that dirt!"
"I can't help it!" The girl explained, "Lady Kikyo told me to work in the garden and I haven't enough time to take a bath yet!"
There was a blur next to Kagome's cheek as her head swung back.
The poor child cupped her swollen cheek as water eyes started to make their appearance.
"DON'T YOU DARE BLAME YOU LACK OF CLEANISNESS ON THE MISTRESS!" The women screamed " You ungrateful runt! The mistress let you stay and you ignore your work! Look at you! You bring shame to all the maids here! Worse of all you bring shame to Mi Lady!"
Tears were starting to roll down those round cheeks, leaving a clear teary trail on her dirt-covered face. Little Kagome could do nothing but weep silently with her head down.
"You are never to go to the Main Hall. Mi Lady said so herself!" The women continued. "If the guest sees you, they'll think badly of this manner! You can never leave this castle through the front gate! You are only to use this path."
The old maid struggled as she gave one last heave and opened the door.
The girl stared in awe at the dark path.
"It's a path out of this castle," She explained " It was used during the war. It's dark, but if you go straight along this path, it well take you outside.."
*** Back Flash Ended ***
.that bitch.
A blood vein started to pulse hard on her forehead.
How long Kikyo has mistreated her lost track. Ever sense the first time the older women saw her face she guess. But why? That question was beyond her.
She stopped as the path end.
Her hands felt around the top of the tunnel.
Wall.wall..AH! HERE IT IS!! HANDLE!
With one strong push, a small part of the tunnel ceiling flipped open as the bright moonlight hits her face.
Finally!
She squeezed herself out of the tight opening and dusted off the remaining ashes on her kimono.
Not ten feet in front of her stood the looming prison barn......
