Divine Imperfection
Author's Note: I do not in any way own Inuyasha or the characters in this story except for the original ones.
Chapter 1 – When Dreams Seem A Reality
It was finally completed. Well not in it entirety, atleast. Kagame looked down at the half completed Shikon Jewel in her hand. It shone radiantly in the sunlight, her reflection shown perfectly unto the clear pink surface. To think, so many years. . .so much blood had gone into finding this jewel, but you'd never know by just looking at it. It stared back up at her as if to mock her, tell her that her efforts were in vain because no matter how hard she tried it would forever remain tainted. Tainted, with the blood of demons and humans alike. Tainted, by unrequited love and hardship. Tainted, with the selfish lust and dreams of others thinking only of themselves. It pained her to hold something of so much evil in the palm o her hand, yet was determined. Determined to purify the jewel and once again giving it the title 'Sacred'.
Kagome sighed and looked at Inuyasha. 'I wonder if he still wishes the jewel to make him a full fledged demon? ' She looked down once more at the Jewel and shook her head, and soon returned the half back to her neck. It was starting to get dark. Soon they'd have to find a place to camp. A cool breeze ran through her hair, it felt reassuring and suddenly she remembered the night when she was little and her mom used to softly stroke her hair at night so she would fall asleep. She missed them so much. Her family. It felt so strange to her now going back to her original home. It wasn't the same anymore. She shivered as the breeze slowly turned into a gust and made her long for the warmth of the fire Miroku was now starting. She had long since decided that she would stay here in the feudal era with her new family since she now felt out of place in her once comforting abode in the 21st century. But ti didn't bother her as much as it should have. . .she felt that in some way she'll always have. . ."Inu. . .Yasha. . ." she slowly murmured and closed her eyes. She fell softly into the world of dreams, which in the worst situations can always make the heart feel better. . .
DREAM
Kagome woke up. . ."Where Am I?" she said as she lifted herself from her supposed resting place. She glanced around to see breathtaking beauty. She had awoken in a meadow of sorts filled with all sorts of flowers. There were roses climbing up the trees surrounding the heavenly glade that seemed to be filled with rays of sunlight and beautiful orchards. Different sorts or flowers graced the spot where she lay and continued on for miles to see. It looked like a rainbow only it started on the ground and seemed to stretch into the air. Birds were chirping and she was amazed to see the various butterflies the would fly from flower to flower going on as if none of the beauty had phased them one bit. . .like they were used to it.
She suddenly noticed she was sitting in someone's shadow. Kagome followed the shadow and found it led to a woman dressed in various crimson shades along with her hair. "Obviously royalty of some sort. . .but she's. . .breath taking" thought Kagome watching the woman taking in every detail from her skin to her hair and clothes.
"I've never seen anyone like her" she thought "I wonder if she knows that I'm-- --"
"Kagome" the woman said taking in a breath and letting the wind blow through her hair. "I've been waiting for you for a long time"
"Who are you" Kagome said breathlessly standing up and walking towards the woman. She could feel the warmth of the woman's smile even from behind her.
"I thought you might
ask. For the time being, you need not know who I am. . . just this: I
am a friend Kagome."
END DREAM
All of a sudden the world started to fade and Kagome found herself staring back into golden orbs full of curiosity.
