Title: Alone Chapter 1: Anata (You)

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

"All of the people coming and going Bear heavy burdens, Searching for tomorrow Within the heat haze wavering in the distance."

The sky had little light when Sango woke up. Her eyes were filled with dried tears from last night.

"Ittai!" a cry escaped her lips as she stood up.

She stepped on a broken tree stem and had a small wound on her right toe. It was bleeding, so she took one of the bandages Kagome left her before she went back to the present time together with the now human Inuyasha.

As she was placing bandages, she heard a child's scream. She stood up and immediately forgot about her wound. Despite the pain of her foot, she pursued on following the source of the scream.

The farther Sango goes, the louder the child's scream becomes. Suddenly, the cry of the child stopped. The taiji-ya's eyes widened as she saw the cold remains of a girl's body divided in half and a beastly-looking demon, with blood on its sharp claws.

She remembered the incident in Naraku's castle, the incident when she lost everything she had. Her family, her friends, everyone in her village, she lost them all. Hence, fury started to heat up the body of Sango. She started attacking the youkai using her Hiraikotsu, but the demon was able to evade the strike with its arm. Sango was about to catch her huge boomerang when her toe suddenly ached; thus, having her weapon hit her instead. She fell on the ground, but is still conscious. Her vision started to blur as she lied down, thinking if it was going to be her end. Or is it?

Dark, everything was dark. She was lost in the middle of nowhere. Fear started to grow inside the taiji-ya's mind, she was alone, and tears started to run down her cheeks.

"Is this the feeling of dying? Will this be my end?"

Sango was startled as she felt a warm feeling on her arm.

"Sango?" a voice called her.

The girl's eyes opened and saw a familiar figure right in front of her. As her vision started to become vivid, she realized who it was.

"Y-you?"
