Disclaimer: I'm really wishing I owned Inuyasha right about now...
(Chapter 3: The Chase)
Brushing her bangs out from her eyes, Kagome glanced upwards, and saw
a cloaked creature staring intently at her, with it's amber eyes.
"Wait! Amber eyes! Could it be? Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered softly, hoping
it was her long lost husband. Praying that he had lived through Naraku's
attack.
The creatures eyes glowed in recognition to Inuyasha's name, and stepped
forward, moving closer towards Kagome.
A strange flutter echoed through Kagome's chest. Her hands began to tremble,
as she locked her gaze on those bright, glowing amber orbs.
"Inuyasha?" She asked again, more confident this time.
The creature took another step closer towards Kagome, reaching a clawed hand
out, as if beckoning her to go with it.
Lifting her still trembling hand towards the creature's clawed one, her gaze still
focused on those eyes. So familiar, and yet so unknown. It must have been Inuyasha,
there was no one else it could possibly be.
Kagome slowly stetched her arm out to accept the hand of the creature.
Just as their hands were about to make contact, a light shone brightly onto
the two of them, temporarily blinding Kagome in the process.
When her eyes finally adjusted to the light, the creature was gone, there wasn't
a trace of it left anywhere. There were only a few police officers standing before
her, but nothing else.
"Men, the creature has escaped from our clutches yet again! Check the
surrounding area for any signs of where it might have gone. I wan't
that creature dead! That thing murdered my daughter," commanded a
furious leading officer.
Kagome collapsed to her knees. Everything was happening all so fast for her,
she didn't know if she could take anymore. Her form was still trembling immensely.
That intense gaze, it could only be from Inuyasha. Only he would ever look at her
like that.
Kagome's eyes began to water, and tears started to streak down her face, leaving
red marks crawling down her face.She may have missed her one and only chance
to be with Inuyasha again.
She punched her fists into the ground as her tears dripped onto the pavement
beneath her.
"Excuse me miss, are you allright?" A worried officer had bent down to comfort
the young woman.
"Yeah, I'm fine, I'm just a little shaky right now."
"I can see what you mean. I'd be pretty frightened too if I came face to face with
that murderer," the young officer shivered.
"I'll just head home now. I've had enough excitement for one day," Kagome sighed.
"Here, at least allow me to escort you back home. I wouldn't want to have guilt placed
on my shoulder's if you were to be murdered before you got to your house."
The officer helped to get her off the ground, and led her to his car. The lights were
still flashing, alerting other bystanders of the danger around them.
He drove her to the shrine, stopping directly under the many steps that lead to
her home.
"Well, I guess this is where I leave you then. By the way, my name is Hojo, remember
that for whenever you get in trouble," Hojo seemed to brag.
"Oh, well thank you," Kagome muttered so low, Hojo hardly caught what she said.
He flashed her a genuine smile before he drove off into the night.
Kagome walked up the several shrine steps, and noticed her mother's car had
returned to the driveway. She couldn't help but wonder about that Hojo guy, he was
so dense, though he seemed nice enough.
Forgetting about dinner, Kagome made her way up the stairs to her room.
It seemed her mother, while she was out shopping, had bought several new clothes
for Kagome as well. There were at least five bags of clothing, stacked up on top
of her bed. Kagome sorted through the new clothing. She located a pair of red, silk
pajamas. It was Inuyasha's favorite color. Her eyes began to water again, but she
refused to let the tears fall. She put on those pajamas, knowing it would comfort her,
because it reminded her so much of Inuyasha.
She went to turn off the light, and noticed that her bedroom window was wide open.
Kagome walked over to the gaping window, and leaned her head out from it. She
glanced up at the moon, it was practically full that night. That's when she realized,
the was something more that could remind her of her friends and family in the
Feudal Era. There worlds weren't too much different from each other. Somewhere,
somehow, she knew they were all gazing up at the same moon, and stars.
Kagome snapped out of her thoughts, and closed the window. She walked over
to the edge of her bed, fully prepared to have a well deserved rest, but there
was a rapping at the window. Kagome twisted her head around, only to come
face to face with those glowing amber eyes once again. The creature looked at
her, but then swiftly ran off into the night.
"No, wait!" Kagome cried, as she grabbed her new sweater.
She rushed out of the house in a flash, and followed the cloaked figure out of the city.
(AN: I finally finished the third chapter! I think it's starting to get good. What do you
you guys think? Anyhow, I left you with another cliff hanger. Who is the
mysterious creature? Is it Inuyasha? Please review!)
