Chapter 12: The Dream
"INUYASHA!" Shippo probably could have been heard about two miles away, "PLEASE!!! Can't we just stop for TONIGHT??"
"I told you before and I WONT tell you again after this......." Inuyasha could sense Miroku and Shippo leaning towards him as he walked. "NOT TONIGHT!"
There was an eerie silence for a while. Shippo was looking up at the pink, purple, and orange clouds that were forming due to the sunset. Miroku had his cursed hand up and stroking his chin, deep in thought. Inuyasha was looking at the ground, replaying the incident that happened at Kaede's home village in his mind....over and over.
Inuyasha could feel a pair of eyes staring at him. He looked up and saw Miroku looking at him, a smirk growing.
"What the hell has gotten into YOU?" Inuyasha waited, but no answer.
After another (shorter) moment of silence, Miroku finally spoke up.
"Well, Inuyasha, I believe that if you wont let us camp out for the night, I have come to a last resort."
Another, larger smirk grew on Miroku's face.
"Which is....?" Inuyasha's voice sounded nervous.
"Do you want me to show you.....or tell you?"
"Ummmm, what the hell, show me."
Miroku lifted his staff and before Inuyasha had the chance to get away, smacked him HARD in the head.
Shippo looked down at the unconscious hanyou before him. "Tsk Tsk! Miroku, that was evil. Even for Inuyasha."
"All's well that end's well." The monk smiled at Shippo.
Dragging Inuyasha, Shippo and Miroku found a nice place to sleep. They laid down, and slept.
Inuyasha was swept into darkness....a long, never ending tunnel.
"What the-"
He looked above him. The was Kagome. She was different though.
"Kagome.......what happened? Ka-"
He was cut off by a loud scream. He looked around himself, his feet met the ground. He looked up again. Kagome was gone.
"Kagome? Where are you!?"
The cave started to disappear and a forest was around him. He heard light footsteps behind him.
"Kagome?" He whispered as he turned around.
"Inuyasha......." Kagome said with a hushed voice.
Inuyasha started walking towards her.
"Kagome......" He stopped, "Wha-What happened to you?"
"Don't be afraid, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha looked over her body. She was wearing her regular era clothes, but her hair, and face was different. Her hair was a violet color, her eyes were bright silver, and she had fangs, like his.
"Kagome...Who did this to you? Why do you look like this?"
Kagome smiled, which made Inuyasha's heart burst. 'My Kagome......at least she's alright.' He thought to himself.
"Inuyasha," Kagome began, "This is a dream. I do not know if I truly AM this way. I hope not. The only secretive way I CAN communicate with you.....is by dreaming, and using some of my Miko powers."
Inuyasha slowly nodded. He walked up to her, and embraced her in a gentle hug. He buried his face in her hair, taking in her familiar scent.
"Kagome....Are you ok?" He let go of her, and looked down at her.
"Yes. But there is an important thing I need to tell you."
"Anything."
"Naraku is planning to attack you. Soon. Please be careful."
Kagome started to fade away.
"Kagome! Please! Don't go!"
"I must.......Good bye..........Inuyasha."
She was gone. It was just Inuyasha standing there, looking around. He laid down and shivered. 'Kagome, please be careful yourself.'
Inuyasha woke up, with a headache. Miroku and Shippo were still asleep. He reached up and rubbed his head.
"Ouch! Damnit!" He felt the bump that was on the top of his head.....right between his ears. "Miroku, I swear to the gods I'll get you for that!"
He listened to the forest sounds, the birds, and rustling leaves. He looked over at Miroku and Shippo again. Their breathing. One of them wasn't breathing like they were asleep. He strained harder to get exactly WHO it was who was awake.
'That stupid monk.....it has to be him.....' He quietly stalked up to him. Raising his fist, he slammed down REALLY hard on the monk's head.
Miroku crunched up into a ball. Silently, he said, "Ouch....what was that for?"
"For yesterday." Inuyasha answered coolly. Miroku moaned.
Shippo sat up and looked around. The sight of Inuyasha standing over Miroku, who was ferociously rubbing his head made him laugh hard.
This startled Inuyasha. He looked up and saw Shippo rolling around, shaking with laughter.
'My friends are morons.' Inuyasha thought to himself. Then he remembered Kagome. 'Except you, Ka-' He was interrupted from his thoughts when the image of Kagome popped into his head. 'Last nights dream! Why didn't I remember it!' He remembered the warning Kagome gave him. "Naraku is planning to attack you."
"He-hey Miroku.....Shippo....." The two of them looked up, surprised to see the worried look on Inuyasha's face.
"Yes, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked.
"Last night.....I had a dream, Kagome was in it, but she was different."
"Different?" Shippo asked, his voice light.
"Her hair was violet colored, she had fangs.....and her eyes.....they were silver!"
Miroku and Shippo lightly gasped. They looked expectantly at Inuyasha,
"And....she told me that Naraku is planning to attack us." He looked down, and nodded slowly, mainly to himself.
Shippo jumped onto Miroku's shoulder, and Miroku looked at Inuyasha.
"Did she say when?" Miroku was curious.
"No." Inuyasha mumbled. He looked up, and smiled. "But I know we can at least blow him away."
