Jokes. I've just always wanted to say that. Hee hee.
This story was inspired by the Inu Yasha AMV- I will find you. It's really sad. and since I am heels over head over Inu Yasha, it hurt me deeply to write this. It's pretty long though, you'll have to read through quite a bit of chapters before this thing ends ;).
I hope everyone who reads this will like it, to a point, and will review it. Harsh comments welcome but not always received kindly (. I DO NOT OWN INU YASHA, but I'm sure all of us Inu Yasha fans wish that we do ;). By the way all Italicized words are the thoughts/narration of Kagome.
Chapter 1 : The Winds Of Change
I can sense the Shikon Jewel shards. I don't know why, but somehow I can feel them coming closer. What does the holder want? Does he have some hidden purpose? Inu Yasha probably won't mind. He'll just be glad that we won't have to search for the shards, but that the fragments will come to us, sooner or later. But what will come of this I wonder. A swift movement brushes past me. The winds of change are upon us.
"Will you stop staring into space?! Wake up; remember we're on a quest to find the jewel shards. Or are you thinking about your boyfriend again?" Inu Yasha remarked.
"I told you he's not my boyfriend!! Besides what do you care anyway?" Kagome retorted.
"I don't care a single bit what you do on your own time, but when you're with me you only have one thing to worry about, the Shikon Jewel."
"Who made you boss?" smirked Shippo, "I'm with you Kagome. Let's just leave this jerk and gather the shards on our own. What do you say?"
I knew I couldn't say no to the young kitsune, although Inu Yasha could be a pain sometimes. Where were Miroku and Sango at a time like this? All I needed was a little interruption to calm this feud, and I didn't have to look far to find one.
"Oh! A pond! Just what we needed a nice bath to cool us down. Hee hee," giggled Kagome.
"Eh? But Kagome." Shippo stared at her with an awaiting look. "Sorry, but it's no time for you to dive into la-la land again. Let's just find Miroku and Sango and leave. Hmph."
The cool light breeze seemed to lighten the tone, which was a relief to the group. They walked along the narrow path and looked for a sign to where the two other party members might be. They searched the sacred grounds countless times, but didn't catch a glimpse of the missing pair. A surge of tension flowed through Inu Yasha, Kagome, Shippo and Myouga. Something wasn't right. Sango couldn't stand Miroku, and she wouldn't stay with him deliberately for such a long period of time. Where were they?
"I knew it! That monk's up to no good!" exclaimed Inu Yasha. "We should've never left him alone with Sango, who knows what he's doing to her. Probably re-explaining the "family mission" to her again. And not taking no for an answer when he asks her to "bear him a child". This was your idea wasn't it, Miss Matchmaker!" He turned to Kagome with a look of accusation in his eyes.
"Aw. Inu Yasha, why do you always have to get all worked up over things? I know how about a nice, long 'sit' of water. (BANG!) Oh did I say 'sit' (BANG!), I meant sip."
"Grrrrrrr."
"Um, Kagome I don't suppose you noticed but the shards of the Shikon Jewel are shining brightly. I'm assuming that they have some sort of reaction to something nearby," implied Myouga.
Oops! I just remembered that I didn't tell Inu Yasha my feeling before. Could this have something to do with the Shikon Jewel's sudden flash-light phenomenon? Eek! Hope not!
"Ahahahahahahaha. Oh yeah, before I could feel a lot of shards of the Shikon Jewel coming towards us. No big deal, ah? Ha ha ha ha," Kagome inserted with a ditsy-voice.
"And when were you planning on letting us know about your little vision?" interrupted Inu Yasha.
"Uhhhh, sorry, sorry. I'll make it up to you," Kagome said relieved. She unhooked the necklace, which held the large chuck of the jewel, from around her neck. The light still shone from it vigorously.
Myouga hopped from Inu Yasha's neck down to the ground where Kagome lightly placed the jewel shard. The other's followed suit and sat down, waiting nervously to hear Myouga's wise words. He stared deeply into it, his mind lost in thoughts. He seemed to be in deep meditation. He got up and tapped at the object. A few small sparks emitted from it, but nothing too suspicious. After a few long, tormenting moments of silence and stillness Inu Yasha interrupted the calm, such is his nature:
"AND?!"
"Just as I thought. I have no idea what the meaning of this is," he replied.
"Awwwww," said the group in harmony.
"Well thanks for leaving us hanging for so long, for nothing!" screamed Inu Yasha.
"That's kind of untypical of you Myouga. Hmm, are you sure you're okay?" asked Shippo. He scurries over to Myouga and knocks on his head.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!!!" cried the flea.
"Where are you going Inu Yasha?" called Kagome.
"Come with me if you want," he huffed.
She stood up quickly and ran up to his side. He didn't say anything, but the expression on his face and the quick glances he gave her, showed that he was pleased that she followed. They walked aimlessly for a couple of minutes, not even noticing that neither Myouga nor Shippo had joined them.
"Why are you here with me?" Inu Yasha asked.
"What you're the one who called me over!" she stammered.
Oh! This guy's asking for it!
"Hey, you! What's your problem? I think you need to si-," Kagome began.
"Sh-"Inu Yasha ordered. They stopped dead in their tracks. A faint sound could be heard in the distance, a sound that only youkai could hear. His cute dog ears twitched slightly. It gave Kagome the sudden urge to lean over and touch them, but of course it wasn't the time.
In a sudden moment Kagome's face was right in the dirt. She was lying flat on her stomach, Inu Yasha's arm holding her down tightly. His lean, muscular body protected most of her slim figure. She always felt safe when Inu Yasha held her. Even in the most dangerous situations, a look from him gave her the feeling of security.
The kimono he was wearing fitted over her perfectly. It was stronger than any armor, or so he said. She believed him, every word he said.
A sharp wisp rang through her ears. It was the sound of arrows or was it? She didn't know. She could feel things hitting her, but the kimono was living up to its purpose. No pain came to her.
"Kagome, run to safety!" Inu Yasha commanded. In an instant she was swept onto her feet. The dirt blowing from off her face. She wanted to go back and help Inu Yasha, but his words were instilled in her mind. She ran until she figured it was safe enough and hid behind a rather large rock, which provided security.
She looked towards Inu Yasha. He was floating. or was he flying? She couldn't tell.
"Kagome!! Kagome!! Why did you leave us like that Kagome?" Shippo had just found Kagome in her hiding spot and had a somewhat scared expression. She did feel sorry for him, but it wasn't the time for sympathy. They were in the heat of battle and that was her first priority.
"Inu Yasha's in trouble, sorry Shippo. Where is Myouga?"
"He was here just a second ago." Kagome instinctively looked behind her, down the path. There was Myouga, running the opposite way of the could-be dangerous situation.
She glanced back at Inu Yasha. She could now see his opponent. It was a demon, one that looked much like Sesshomaru-sama, Inu Yasha's older brother. But it wasn't him Kagome could tell. He did have the same face though. His hair was a soft maroon and it hung down below his waist. His moves were sharp and agile. Kagome feared that Inu Yasha might not be able to be quick enough to block the ongoing attacks. She noticed that he kept looking at the Tetsuiaga longing. Was that his goal? Was it to take hold of Inu Yasha's father's legendary sword? She knew that this was very typical of Inu Yasha's brother, Sesshomaru, but could it be him? No she knew for sure that it wasn't. She knew because there wasn't any mockery going on in between the fighting.
The demon flung himself to Inu Yasha with great speed, reaching for the sword. The Tetsuiaga was ripped from Inu Yasha's hands and fell in the hands of the opponent. The youkai didn't seem affected by the Tetsuiaga at all! He chuckled to himself and gave Inu Yasha a domineering look. Inu Yasha's face went red. He was so angry. How dare that guy try to act like he was better then him? He'd show him who's King around here.
Kagome could sense a jewel shard close by. It was in that guy Inu Yasha was brawling with!
"Inu Yasha! He's got a Jewel shard in him! Be careful," Kagome instructed.
"Heh. I'm gonna give you three seconds to back out, cause playtime is over. 3, 2, 1. Hmph. You just can't get enough of me can you?" hissed Inu Yasha.
"IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER!" Kagome could hear Inu Yasha's attacks from where she was sitting. His claws ripped through the enemy's armor and he dropped to the hard surface. Blood stained the once green grass and a light smoke floated in the air from the Tetsuiaga.
That was it? Wow that guy seemed a lot stronger than that, hmm.
"Kagome, are you alright?" Inu Yasha was kneeling down beside her, sword grasped tightly in his hand.
She faced him and stared into his eyes. Butterflies escaped into her stomach, as she saw an expression that she had never seen him give her before.
The sound of rustling bushes came from where the battle had just taken place. Everyone turned their heads rapidly in that direction. The demon was gone.
