Chapter 1- Engulfed
The burning flames engulfed the shrine Kagome had known so well. The heat trapped her in an image that could only be described as hell on earth. A flame ridden rafter fell in front of her startled body, crushing that table she had happily sat at with her family a mere hour ago. Her mind was screaming franticly to try and get her legs to move, but movement was not to come.
She needed to get out or she'd die. Every inch of her knew that, and the fact became more apparent as the heat surrounded her very senses.
She smelled the smoke. Saw the flames. Felt the heat. She had heard her familys cries as they were lost in the firey hell, she could taste the smoke. Everything clouded her mind and diminished her will to live.
Her whole family was gone. They had all parished in the flames.They're heart-wrenching screams would be forever etched in her memory. She was immobilized by her fear, even though the voice in her head was urgently commanding her escape. Somewhere deep down she wanted to live. But those thoughts thad been cremated along with her family, for now she felt she had to die.
'I don't deserve to live..'
Each breath got harder and harder to take, and she collapsed to her knees.
'I'm going to die.'
Her eyes fluttered and she smiled weakly at the thought of being reunited with Mama, Jii-chan and Souta.
'Its for the best.'
Suddenly she felt hands upon her body and she was lifted up.
'So.. this is what death feels like..'
Her mind was clouded with smoke and she only vaugly sensed she was being carried away from her own personal hell.
"D..ea..th... is'n..t...so.. ba...d..." She whispered.
Someone was shouting something but it seemed a different language at first. Kagome's mind proccessed it was Japanese but her language comprehending skills were shot at the moment.
Kagome looked around with half open eyes and saw the burning shrine collapse as if in a movie.
'I'm not dead... this is not real... not real.. not real..'
Someone strapped a divice to her wrist and another put a plastic mask ver her nose and mouth.
'Unreal.. unreal..'
She didn't want help.
She wanted to die.
"Why... WHY DIDN'T YOU LEAVE ME THERE?!" She shouted. Kagome used every bit of strength in her worn body to get up and run.
She had absolutly no where to go, but she ran on.
Tears that had refused to fall in the shrine dripped freetly down her blackened cheeks and stained her fair cheeks.
Her wounds stung mercilessly as she ran and her breaths soon became desperate calls for air.
Maybe if she kept running then it wounld'nt be true.
It would be a dream.
All a dream!!
She ran down the street she had walked down earlier that day. There were ghostly shadows being cast on the ground. The moon was full and the night air crisp.
' Dream dream dream!'
A stray cat ran from Kagome's hurried footsteps and gasping sobs, and she stopped.
'C...at... B-b..u..yo...' She was under someones porch now. The roof sheilded her from the moons desperate gaze, and the erie shadows that surrounded the street. She collasped on the ground and shook with the silent sobs that racked her weathered body.
'Why... what did I do... why was I spared?!'
Her head dropped towards her scabbed knees, and her tears washed spots of soot off her legs.
'Why me...'
She leaned her head against the front door. 'Its not fair!'
Her thoughts entranced her and she saw her last meal together with her family replay before her sunken eyes.
The night air engulfed her beaten body and the need for sleep weighed heavily on her dark brown eyes.
Kagome fell against the porch and sucumbed to the aching need to ease her mind.

Inuyasha sighed and fell against the couch.
"Kikyou cancelled AGAIN! I swear it.. if I didn't think she'd have a coniption fit i'd dump her..." He sighed and put on a mocking voice. "I'm to tired~~~ddd" He stuck out his tounge. "Tired my ass."
"Inuyasha you really should keep your petty thoughts to your worthless self." Inuyasha feminine older brother Sesshoumaru walked in the room, followed by his adopted daughter Rin.
Sesshoumaru's attatchment to Rin was really surprising seeing as his pholosiphy was 'If you can't care for yourself you deserve to die.' Ahh.. wonderful loving Sesshoumaru.
"Cough Girl Cough." Inuyasha said.
"Dear brother.. when you wish to hide an insult by using bodily functions, it might be wise to actually do the appointed action and not just say the word." Rin giggled behind him.
"Damn you!" Inuyasha did a backwards summersault and landed in a crouched position on the beige carpet.
Sesshoumaru smirked at him. "Rin and I will be back shortly. We have some errands to run."
"At 8 o clock? Dont normal people do they're buisiness in the afternnoon...?"
"Goodbye."
"Vampire."
"I heard that."
"No you didn't."
"You're an imbecile." (sp?)
"YOUR MIND LIES!"
Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes and opsned the door. "I'll b..."
Rin gave a shout and lept behind her father burying her face in his shirt.
In front of them was a beaten looking girl.
A/n: Muaha! Cliffie! I know its short but i could only elaborate so much on the fire! REVEIW AND ILL UPDATEEEEE! Ja mata!
