Chapter One ***********

The sun was just coming up, and with it, Kriselle awoke. She put her hand to her face and gazed at the sunlight coming through the window. The hotel was beautiful, and they were resting there, taking a break from their journey. It had been a long one. She listened carefully to the birds and the laughter from outside, and the voices coming from downstairs.

"I'm sorry Kagome," came the voice that Kriselle recognized as Inuysha, her half demon companion. "Well, you didn't need to do that, it was disgusting and immature," said Kagome, the human girl who Inuyasha had said was from the future. Kriselle didn't believe it. She didn't believe a lot of what Inuyasha said, but other then that they got along well. Kriselle had not been traveling with them long, so she understood what was going on only from what she had been told.

"Hey!" Came another voice. This time it was not from downstairs, but from her own room. She looked up. It was another of her companions, Miroku. Kriselle put her hand up again to block the sun, which appeared to be shining brighter then ever, and smiled up at him. "They're fighting again," he said, tying up his black hair. She stretched and got out of bed, running to him and wrapping her arms around his shoulders, looking into his beautiful blue eyes. Since the day she met Miroku, she had a special place in her heart for him, and she loved him a lot. But there was something behind the calm exterior that Miroku often wore. A sadness that she didn't recognize nor understand, and she didn't think she would want to.

As she gazed into Miroku's eyes, she felt as if she was safe, and didn't have a care in the world. It was this moment that she knew she would want to be with him forever. And she began to drift off in his arms. She was soon awoken with a start. She had heard a scream, and Miroku had shaken her awake. He took her hand and they tore down the stairs, only to see the lobby completely empty.

With a second glance, they saw Kagome huddled in a corner, next to a potted plant, and ran to her. She was holding her hand to a long, bloody gash on her face, and sobbing like there was no tommorow. "What happened?" Asked Miroku, putting his arm around her. "It was.Inuyasha," replied Kagome between sobs. "He's lost it."
