Chapter 1
Kagome's Loneness
Kagome walked through a forest of deep fog. The fog was so thick she could not see ahead of her.
"Inuyasha?" she called. "Inuyasha?"
There was no answer. Her scared voice echoed loudly through the woods. She was hesitant, but started to slowly walk again.
"Inuyasha? Shippo?"
The fog seemed to envelope and engulf her. Then, quite suddenly, she got a quick shiver. A bad vibe. Something very ominous and threatening. She began to hear noises and started to run in a panic. No one was anywhere, and she was all by herself.
"Inuyasha?"
Kagome suddenly felt something.
"A jewel shard is nearby," she thought to herself.
Suddenly, a tree caught her eye. It was a twisted, gnarled tree and the fog seemed to be emanating from it. It made unusual noises and spewed out fog from its contorted branches every so often. There appeared to be no leaves budding from it. It looked completely drained of life.
Kagome approached the tree apprehensively and coughed when it spewed a cloud of fog. She put her hand over her mouth to cover it.
"Where is everybody?" she asked herself.
She abruptly noticed a knob in the center of the tree that was protruding, and sticking out of it, was a jewel shard. It looked sharp like a spine on a cactus, and it wasn't fully embedded in the knob. Kagome then walked over to it and tried to pull it out. It wouldn't budge.
"Okay, then," she said.
She took out an arrow from the quiver on her back and tried to cut the shard out with the arrow's sharp point. She tried jabbing it to pry it out, but it was no use.
"Maybe this will work," she said, and she took a couple steps backwards.
Kagome then took out her bow and set up her arrow for a shot that would perhaps knock the shard loose.
"Here goes nothing," she said, and she took aim.
She pulled it back and the arrow flew through the air flawlessly. It hit the knob of the tree, exactly where the shard was rooted. But, it did nothing. The tree spewed another batch of pungent fog and Kagome gagged.
She approached the tree again to retrieve her arrow, when she was attacked.
