Chapter 4
Dream
Kagome see the girl she's been dreaming about. She hears the girl reciting a poem. Kagome can feel her heartbreaking. "Why do I feel this way?" The girl breaks down and sobs as the girl does this Kagome does the same.
Suddenly Kagome shoots straight up in her bed. She scurries to grab a piece of paper so she can write down the poem before she forgets.
After she finished she laid back down. "Why is this happening to me?" Kagome drifts back to sleep with that question on her mind.
The alarm went off at six. She struggled out of bed and jumped in the shower. When she got out she was fully awake. She slipped on some pants and one of her baby tees and brushed her hair.
Kagome ran down the steps grabbing the pop tart in her mom's hand.
"I love you sweetie. Have a nice day at school."
"Thanks, mom"
She jumps into her car to pick up Sango. "She's going to kill me. I'm so dead."
Sango is waiting outside her house "Where the hell is she?" Sango yells.
Kagome turns the corner and stops at the curb. She rolls down the window "You coming or do you want to be late?"
"I'm coming it took you long enough to get here." Sango complains while getting in.
Kagome presses on the gas in a hurry to get to school.
Sango looks at her "Why are you late anyway?"
"I didn't sleep well last night." Kagome replies.
Before Sango could ask any questions Kagome changes the subject "Do we need to pick up Miroku?"
"No he's getting a ride from Inuyasha." She smiles slightly.
There was silence for a while Soon Sango couldn't stand it any longer "Have you talked to Inuyasha?"
"No I haven't seen him in two days and he's my next door neighbor." She suddenly missed him badly.
Sango now seeing her friend sad changes the subject fast. "Did you do you poetry assignment?"
Kagome tilts her head to the side "oh shit. I forgot all about it. I am so dead. Wait the poem I wrote down I put it in my bag. I don't care if it doesn't make sense at least I'll have my homework done." she looks at Sango "yes"
They pull into the parking lot and slide into a spot.
Kagome grabs her bag and heads into school.
"Sango how many minutes do we have?"
Sango looks at her watch "About 9 minutes."
"Shit!" Kagome runs to her locker and hurries to open it. "Damn it! Don't stick on me." Finally it opened and she grabbed her books and of course her home work.
She went to Sango's locker and then they ran to their class.
Kagome flew through the door and slid in her seat exhausted soon after Sango did the same.
"Sango we just made in the nick of time."
"Yeah we can run pretty fast when are asses are on fire."
Kagome let out a laugh and gives Sango a high five.
She glances at the clock "Class is about to start and oh shit, oh shit" tearing through her stuff looking for a sheet of loose-leaf paper.
"I have to copy this before class starts. I can't turn it in like this." She starts to write.
Inuyasha stares at her "why is she so late and why the hell didn't she have her homework done. Something is wrong I can smell it." His attention quickly turns to the teacher.
The teacher smiles at them "I hope you have your assignments done because you're going to read them aloud."
Kagome slams her head on her desk "I don't need this." She mutters loudly into her desk.
Sango looks up at her and laughs, "It will be fine you have your poem done."
Kagome turns her head side ways on her desk "Sango you don't understand. I didn't really have my poem done. It's hard to explain but I'll tell you at lunch."
"Kag you said you had it done!" Sango steamed.
"I do but then I don't" Kagome quickly closed her eye then slowly opened them.
"What does that suppose to mean?" she snaps
"Well I wrote it but I don't remember doing it. The thing I do remember is my dream then all the sudden waking straight up in my bed but not writing the poem." She turned her face into her desk before Sango could comment.
Inuyasha glances at her "why does she always clam up when the dream subject comes up?" he heard her breathing become shallow as she slowly fell asleep.
Kagome was so tired that she didn't hear her teacher call her name.
"Hey wake up." Sango poked her with her pencil.
She shot her head up off the desk "Huh?"
"Kagome it's your turn" she points to the waiting teacher.
Kagome mutters shit to softly for anyone to hear and gets up walks to the front of the class
She turns to the teacher. "Does it have to have a title? I'm still thinking of one." The teacher shakes her head no.
Kagome looks at the class Inuyasha amber eyes burn into her. "My poem doesn't have a title okay" but she doesn't wait for a response.
I'm surrounded by darkness my world is gone.
The strange place I'm in is all wrong.
I see you from afar pinned to that tree.
I break the spell that sets you free.
You called me by a name I didn't know
You assumed that I was she because I resemble her so.
Why do I feel something stir in my soul?
Soon a fire blazes out of control
The love between us grew but we would never tell.
Maybe we were scared or too frightened to say the words.
My heart ached for the longing was too strong
I left those amber eyes returning to my home.
A final thought passed my mind
Destiny brought us together but we had to part
I know we'll meet again deep down in my heart.
Kagome took a deep breath holding back the tears. All eyes were on her and her vision started to blur. She quickly turned around and placed her poem on the teacher's desk then made her way to her seat.
"Why do I feel crying it's just a poem?" she struggled to hold back the tear to her blessing the bell rang. She got up and walks out the door just as the tears fell.
Kagome sat under a large tree waiting for Sango to come.
"Why am I sitting under a tree on a nice day?" but she knew she was drawn to the tree not just this tree but all the trees. There was a caring feeling to them.
Sango walked out with the guys behind her. She spotted Kagome leaning against a tree and turned around "You should go sit some where else I need to talk to her alone. It's female things."
Inuyasha glared at her "What's going on Sango and don't tell me it's nothing because I can smell it."
"I don't know Inu. I really don't know" she glanced at Inuyasha then at her best friend.
Miroku chimed in "Will go sit over there okay my dear." He pointed at not that far away from Kagome and then winked.
Sango just blushed and walked away under her breath she muttered pervert.
Inuyasha liked where they were going to sit unlike Miroku he could hear girls talk.
"Come on pervert lets go sit down." He says leave Miroku behind.
Kagome watched Inuyasha walk to the tree and sit down. She wanted to go to him but was afraid he was still mad.
She took her gaze off Inuyasha and turned to Sango "Hey I see Miroku got to you?"
Sango touched her face "he's such a pervert."
"Yeah he is but he likes you" Kagome trying to keep her off the subject she came there to talk about.
She looks at Kagome "So how long did you think you could stall me?"
Kagome sighs, "I was hoping all of lunch but you caught me."
"Kag tell me what's been bothering you? You keep mentioning your dreams then you get all upset. Why?"
Kagome took a deep breath "I better tell her now before I feel like running away."
"You know my tattoo I said I got it to remember a dream. What I said was true. The first dream I had was two months before I moved. Sango there was a girl in my dreams that looked like me. I swear on my life. I could have been her twin or something. It was so strange. Well this girl had an orb with her I think it was more like a crystal but there was something dangerous about it. Demons wanted it because of its power something about making them unstoppable. Oh I'm not really sure anyways this girl also had a bow and arrows with her. When she shot an arrow blue light engulfed it. These two things were important to her and for some reason they were important to me. That's why I got the tattoo."
Sango just stared at her "Kag I understand now about your tattoo but what about the poem?"
Kagome watched her friend's expression. "Well last night when I was sleeping I had another dream. I saw the same girl but she was reciting that poem. Sango I could feel her pain and the loss of a love that was her soul mate. I have a feeling this guy wasn't any ordinary guy I can feel it deep in my soul. I think he was hanyou no I know it. She loved him so much." Tears fell down her face like a waterfall.
"Kagome are you okay." Sango now worried
"Sango I can feel how much she loved him and that love was special. I have a feeling he loved her too but there's something about a debt. A woman that died hating him but there was something not right about her. This woman wanted to change him with the crystal but this girl didn't care. The girl hated the woman for that I also feel jealously a lot of it not just from her but him too." Kagome stopped and leaned more into the tree.
Sango had tears in her eyes "Kag how did you know all that?"
"That's the weird thing when I started to talk to you some of it flooded back. Sango she left because he couldn't tell her he loved her. Three simple words and he couldn't say them. Damn it why didn't he just say it." Kagome was flooded with anger her aura glowed brightly.
Sango gasps at what she saw "K..Kag what just happened?"
"What!" she snaps
Kagome looks at Sango "Oh I'm sorry I was flooded with anger. I was mad at him because he never said it. I also thought he didn't love me. Why would he need a weakling like me I was only his damn shard detector. Listen to me I'm mad at someone I don't even know. Please lock me up I'm turning into a damn lunatic." She sighed rubbing her now hurting head.
"Sango lets talk about this more later. I think I'm going to go to see the nurse and lay down."
The bell rings and Sango gets up "Here I'll help you to the nurse."
Inuyasha watches Kagome walk away and vanish through the doors.
"Damn wench you weren't the weak one I was. It was my fault you left not yours. Silly girl you were never my shard detector just my Kagome." He slowly got up and walks to class not caring if he was late.
Kagome drove home music filling the car. The nurse had told her to go home and get some rest and that's what she was going to do.
"I can't wait to curl up in my bed and go to sleep." She yawns.
She slowly stopped the car and got out. Walking up the stair seemed like eternity until she opened her door and crawled into bed. Soon her eyes drifted slowly closed and sleep came quickly.
Sango was at her locker grabbing her bag. "I hope she feels better" her thoughts on Kagome.
She turned to see Inuyasha and Miroku coming towards her.
Inuyasha glared "Where's the hell is Kagome?"
"She went home early." Sango replies
"When did she do that?" Inuyasha asks.
"Right after lunch she wasn't looking so good" Sango bit her lip.
Miroku eyed Sango "Do you need a ride home? I'm guessing Kag was your ride."
"I was just going to walk home."
Inuyasha knew he needed to talk to Sango "No we'll take you home"
"Okay" was all she said.
They dropped Miroku off first.
"Hey pervert make sure you're up tomorrow or I'm leaving without you." Inuyasha grinned
"Yeah I'll be up. You just make sure your hear on time" Miroku creaked back.
He shut the door and came through the window kissing Sango's hand "Bye my dear."
Sango blushed and bopped him on the head as they started to pull away. "Your lucky we're leaving or I would hurt you more. You pervert!"
Inuyasha glanced at the blushing Sango "Kagome was really upset wasn't she."
"Yeah but you knew that already didn't you?"
"I heard you guys talking and she was telling you the truth. Well most of it I can verify."
Sango stared at him "So what she said was true. It's not that I didn't believe her but I think I needed to hear it from someone else."
"You know when Kagome got angry at lunch. Well I got angry too. I was mad that I let her go but I was really mad at myself for not tell her that I loved her. Sango she was never my shard detector just my beautiful Kagome." He tried to smile.
"What's going on Inu?" Sango still confused
"I don't understand it myself. Sango when we danced at the club I recognized her scent. It was like a memory or something I can't explain it. I've met her before I know it." He kept his eyes on the road.
They sat in silence until she was at her house. "See you tomorrow Inu. You guys will figure it all out. Okay." She gave him a small smile.
"Thanks. Bye Sango" In the back of his mind he hoped that she was right
He drove off knowing soon the light sky would be covered in darkness.
Kagome grabbed her chest running as fast as she could. She could feel her heart clutching onto the fear. She ran deeper in the woods trying her hardest to lose whatever was chasing her. It was getting darker and becoming harder to see. Suddenly she tripped over something crashing to the ground. Kagome tried to pick herself back up but it was to late the thing looming over her. The moonlight hit the beast revealing a demon. It raised it claw and swung at her.
Kagome let out a small cry and sat up. She looks around recognizing she was in her room.
"It was a dream." She sighs deeply.
"I need to go outside for some fresh air that will make me feel better." She got out of bed and grabs her fleece blanket.
She walks down the stair and out the back door. A sudden chill came over her and she wraps the blanket tightly around her.
Kagome walked around for a while then ended up at the sacred tree. A blast of comfort washed over as she touched it. She sat down and leaned against it feeling safe and cared for. The gentle breeze touched her cheek as she fell asleep.
Next door a certain hanyou watch out the window at the now sleeping girl "Goodnight Kagome."
