Rumiko Takahashi owns Inu-Yasha, not me. . .boo hoo hoo!!! LOL ^^
My Own Inu-Yasha Adventure: Chapter 4
Okay, so we've gotten up to where the glowing red eyes have appeared, right! So let's move on, shall we? Te he ^^
All around me, glowing red eyes appeared out of the darkness. I gasped, realizing that I was surrounded by demons. It must have been a trap!
"The human has the shard," one of the demons hidden by the darkness told the rest. "Get her!"
"Ah!" I ran deeper into the cave as the hoard of demons attacked.
I turned around to chance a glance at the demons that were after me. They seemed as if unable to enter the cave, as if there were some sort of barrier. Had Naraku erected the barrier? If he had, I'm grateful. How long would it hold, though? Not that I didn't rely on Naraku's abilities because I did. Naraku was powerful, but I couldn't rely on him forever. I had to return home. I couldn't stay here.
From outside came a flash of lightning, followed by rain, thunder, and silence. There were no sounds of any demons and I couldn't see a thing anyway so I don't know what had happened to them.
I sat down upon the baboon skin, which Naraku had covered me with, and awaited his return. I did not have to wait long because Naraku entered only a few minutes later.
"It seems you've handled yourself well while I've been gone," he told me.
"Huh?" I looked at him.
"Are you not the one who destroyed the demons lying dead outside?" Naraku asked as he tended to the dying fire.
"Not that I know of," I answered him.
"In any case, you are still unwell," Naraku told me. "Lie back down and rest."
I lie back down, covering myself with the baboon skin and remained silent as I watched Naraku feed the dying flames until they were restored to a bright warmth.
"I'm sorry if I've caused any trouble, I just want to go home. I don't even want to be here, I don't know why I came," I told Naraku.
". . ." he said nothing. "You have been no trouble. It's actually quite. . .nice. . .to have someone around who does not fear me."
". . ." I didn't know how to react. "How.I'm sorry.Naraku."
"Sorry? For what?" Naraku gazed at me.
"For what's happened to you," I answered. "I haven't heard much, but. . .what I have heard, you've had it kinda rough."
"Everyone has it rough sometimes," Naraku told me. "Why is it my rough spot is so interesting?"
"Everyone has had it rough, yes, but you've had it more so than the rest," I told him. "You need not say anything more, I don't care. . .I mean, I don't care if you say anything of it."
"You want to hear my story," Naraku stated. "You care. . .I've never had someone care for me. . .except there was one. . ."
"Oh. . ." I didn't know whether to speak or not. "Mmm. . .I do care. . .Naraku."
"What I've been through is something one tries to forget, but can never," Naraku told me.
I glanced at him. He was staring into the flames of the fire solemnly. I sat up and edged closer to the villain everyone hated and wrapped my arms around his torso in a comforting embrace. He tensed for a moment in response to my action, then eased a bit.
"You can tell me," I told him, resting my head against his back and closing my eyes. "I don't care."
Naraku was silent. From what I could tell he was still gazing into the flames. I didn't think he would say anything at all, then he surprised me and did what I thought he wouldn't.
"My story begins. . .more that fifty years ago. . ." Naraku started.
And that's all you're getting' right now. Bummer ain't it? Stay tuned for the last chapter, Chapter 5!
