Disclaimer: oooooh the things I would do to Inuyasha if he were mine... but sadly he's not. Damn you Rumiko!
Kagome's POV
I forced a smile as Hojo walked up to me.
"Hi Kagome! I was wondering if maybe you aren't too busy, would you like to go see a movie with me this Saturday?"
I sighed on the inside. Was the boy really this dense? He never seemed to take a hint. I found myself wishing that I was somewhere else, as I often did when Hojo asked me out on dates. I cancelled on him time after time and yet he still asked me out every week. I sighed.
"Kagome? Are you ok?"
I hadn't meant to sigh out loud.
"I really can't go with you this Saturday, I uhh...already have a date."
Hojo looked crushed and I placed a hand on his shoulder to comfort him. "Sorry Hojo. I've just always thought of you as more of a friend. I hope this doesn't change anything."
Hojo brightened just a little. " Kagome?"
"Yes?"
"Who do you have a date with? Is it someone I know?
I thought fast. "Ummm...his name is Inu...Inuyasha"
Inuyasha? Now where did that name come from? I thought the name was Inu...oh well, my memory seems to be coming back. So slowly that I felt like ripping my hair out, but coming back they were.
Hojo frowned. "Inuyasha? I feel like I've heard that name before...oh well." he waved and left as the school bell rang and people began pouring out of the classrooms and into the hall.
Oh DAMN IT!! I was so wrapped up in my thoughts of who this Inu guy was that I completely missed my last period of the day!!
"KAGOME!!"
Shit. It was Eri. And she didn't look happy. Not one little bit.
Eri's POV
Kagome has been acting so strangely lately!! She won't pay attention in school, she barely talks and she even refused a date with Hojo! I think maybe she might be sick..or..oh no!! She's in love!! Kagome...what have you gotten yourself into? No wonder she looks so depressed all the time. He doesn't love her back, poor Kagome has been going around like a lost little puppy. I feel so sorry for her. I know! I'll set her up on a blind date with Hojo! Then maybe she can forget about this jerk that she's in love with. Why can't she just see that Hojo is the man for her? She'll go out with him if its the last thing I do!
Kikyo's POV
My spell is working. I can feel it. I can feel the soul that I share with this girl grow colder and stranger. She is no doubt confused right now. I allowed tidbits from the past to stay with her. Perhaps her confusion will eventually drive her to the brink of insantiy. Oh, that is a sweet thought indeed. I shiver with pleasure at the thought of that girl tormented and dazed. Depressed and Angry. I can almost taste it. Inuyasha moans in his sleep. I gave him a rather large dose of the subduing potion and I worried for a while that perhaps the dose had been too strong and that perhaps I had killed him. I am relieved that he is still living. Do not mistake me. I have no feelings towards this filthy Hanyou except disgust and bitter hatred. I just cannot have him dying until I am finished. He will not die until he suffers immensely. He won't die until he comes to hell with me. I sit and watch him as he sleeps. He really is a foul creature. Half Human and Half Demon. What a foul and unnatural combination. Inuyasha cries out in fear, not waking from his slumber once. A smile crosses my face as he cries out once more.
"KAGOME!! NO! KAGOME!"
Miroku's POV
I still don't know where we are. All I know is that Sango and I are deep in some forest and that there is no end in sight. I'm not complaining. Far from it. I enjoy every moment that my dear Sango and I have alone. She is warming up to me. Slowly but surely. Perhaps one day I can tell her how I feel. Perhaps one day I can make her my wife. I sigh and she looks at me with those gorgeous eyes of hers.
"Is something the matter Miroku?" she asks me. Ah Sango. Your voice is heavenly. You are so concerned for me, even though your wounds are great you still put others before yourself. I sigh again.
"I am fine my dear Sango. Merely thinking on our plight and wondering if we shall indeed ever leave this monstrous forest."
Sango limped over to where I sat and smiled down at me. She gave me a hug and whispered in my ear. Before I could react she was back by the fire and soundly sleeping. Ah your smile Sango, your voice, the way you move. I have never felt this way.
I placed a barrier around our campsite and crawled over to the fire and laid down. Closing my eyes, I heard her soft voice in my ear once more.
"We will leave my dear sweet Miroku. It might take awhile but I trust you. Perhaps one day..."
I smiled. She hadn't finished her sentence. "Goodnight my love." I whispered before sleep took me over.
----3rd person POV----
Kagome shivered as she passed the Well House. She couldn't help it. That place had given her the creeps ever since she was little. It was so spooky. Sometimes she was sure it was haunted. She shivered again and hurried into her house. She went into her bathroom and quickly showered. Throwing on her Pajamas she climbed into bed and thought long and hard before falling asleep. The last lucid thought she had was..."I'll find this Inuyasha, even if it kills me. I know something is wrong. I know it deep down and I don't like it one bit..."
Her dreams were strange...
There was a boy. A flash of red. A little fox. The boy again. An Arrow. The boy. Who was this boy? Was this her Inuyasha? But he didn't look human. But he had to be human because what else could he be? There was a woman. A woman that looked like her, and yet didn't. Her smile made Kagome sick to her stomache. The boy again. Kagome was pretty certain that this boy was her Inuyasha. But what was on his head? Where those...Ears? A monk with a curse. A slayer with a horrid past and a tormented brother. A regal looking demon with a small child on his shoulder....
Kagome's alarm clock went off and she fumbled around, trying to shut it off.
"hate this damn thing" she mumbled. She yawned and stretched and headed to the bathroom. After a quick shower and breakfast, Kagome flew out the door on her way to school. Her dream already forgotten.
