well this is the first story that i've started on. i'm admitting now that it's not the greatest thing ever, but oh well. i had an idea, i ran with it, which is more than i can generally say. read it, don't read it, it's up to you.
i don't own inuyasha or any of the other characters from said series, i've just come up with interesting situations for said characters. nor do i own any of the evanescence song titles or lyrics used in the names of the chapters, though i envy their owners.
read and review, hope you like. - coyotesabre

Chapter One: Surrender
"Everyone's asleep already... might as well turn in myself."
The hanyou took one more walk around that night's camp to make sure that things were alright. Sango was asleep near his tree, Miroku over by the dying fire with that grin on his face - one can only wonder why at this hour - Shippo curled up over by Kagome. He stopped looking around when he reached this sight, seeing how Kagome looked in the moonlight. Her raven black hair shone from the light of the moon - almost as if it were glowing - and the way it fell into her face made the shadows fall just right, showing how angelic she really could look; he noticed the way her hand rested softly near her face, not quite underneath it - he felt a sudden urge to lay down next to her and hold that hand for as long as she wouldn't notice, yet pushed those thoughts away as harshly and suddenly as they had appeared.
"What are you thinking? She's the one always telling you to 'sit' all the time. It's a wonder you don't just..."
He let his thoughts trail off and stepped back a bit when he saw her stir in her sleep.
"Good job there, you almost woke her up. Just get in your tree and stay there for the night."
And so, Inuyasha jumped up to a limb near the level where he usually finds himself while relaxing in a tree. He put his hands behind his head, surveying the area from on high for any suspicious movements, his ears twitching listening for any odd noises. Eventually, he allowed himself to close his eyes and relax, not knowing how quickly he would succumb to the temptations of slumber. Before he knew it, he felt himself drifting off. He didn't fight it, knowing that if anything happened or if anyone were coming near their camp he would jolt awake and be ready to defend his friends - to defend Kagome really, as everyone else could fight for themselves.
"Maybe not Shippo, but he generally runs over to Kagome like the baby he is."
With one last sigh, he fell asleep. If only he knew what he was in for upon doing so.
