Life of the Warrior: the Vision
A young girl lay in her bed, the covers were on the floor, and she was drenched in sweat. "No…you cant!" her body tensed, "No! Stop!" she thrashed a bit, her cries were growing more desperate, "FATHER!!!!" she shot awake gasping for breath, she could still see her dream in her mind.
*~*Flashback*~*
They had lived in a small village; her father had been the last Keeper. He had been training Kagome to fill his place when she turned fifteen. Tomorrow.
That night Naraku sent his soldiers to kill their family.
The soldiers dragged everyone from their beds and threw them on the ground outside. Kagome's father struggled with the soldiers, giving his family time to escape. Kagome and her mother grabbed Souta and ran for the woods.
Hearing cries of pain Kagome looked back. Her father was kneeling on the ground; the soldiers were beating him with long wooden rods. Blood ran down the side of his face and his back. She stifled a cry of horror. The house behind her father was on fire. Kagome watched fascinated by the way the flames licked at the sky.
"Kagome…run…" her father gasped. Her trance broken, Kagome stayed long enough to see her father fall to the ground before running.
Tears streaming down her cheeks, Kagome ran blindly through the forest, stumbling over rocks and plants. Kagome tripped over a large root, and lay sprawled on the ground, sobbing. Her father was dead.
*~*End Flashback*~*
Kagome had managed to find her mother and Souta, and the next morning they set out for the next village.
Since that night they had lived with Kagome's grandfather at his shrine. Souta had not spoken a word. On her fifteenth birthday Kagome was made Keeper, her grandfather preformed the ceremonies. Throughout the ceremony Kagome thought of her father, he should've been the one performing the ceremonies.
**I better get to sleep, Gramps swore to make me clean the entire shrine if I wasn't awake on time**
"KAGOME!!!!!"
**Shit!! I overslept again** "Coming Gramps,"
Kagome quickly threw on a simple white kimono before running down the stairs and to the shrine.
"Kagome," Gramps said, "you remember our deal? After you perform your Keepers duties you will clean the entire shrine."
"Yes grandfather," Kagome sighed and walked into the shrine. She knelt, closed her eyes and began to pray.
**Hot… why is it so hot?**
Kagome opened her eyes and looked around, she was standing in the center of the village, everything as burning.
**Mother! Souta! Gramps! Are they all right?**
Kagome ran through the village towards the shrine. When she saw the shrine on its familiar hill, she sighed with relief.
**The fire hasn't spread that far yet! Thank God!**
Just before she reached the shrine she saw the soldiers grouped around three people.
**My family…**
"Where is the girl?" the cold voice sent shivers down her spine.
"She was not in the house or shrine Lord Naraku."
"Then burn it."
