Chapter 5:
Dreams are Made Binding! Through my Head!
Kagome had finally got it out and told him she was dying. She could feel the heavy burden rise from her and leave. Tears still claimed her face, as did Inuyasha's but his were seemingly dry now. They had been sitting there for a while in silence just holding each other in comfort. She didn't know how much longer she could take the silence; she really wished he would say something, anything! She just wanted to know what he was thinking or if he even cared. It was sort of clear to her that he did care a little otherwise he wouldn't be holding her like he was, so full of love and compassion.
" So, what is wrong with you? I mean how do you know your going to." he choked on that last part it was as if he didn't want to repeat the words that she had told him. Kagome looked up at him with a half smile as she laid on him for a minute she then turned her head to the sky. The clouds looked like cotton candy. She then began to fully smile at that thought. That smile gave her the courage to get out what she had to say next.
" I have a rare heart disease. That means that at any point in time my heart is going to collapse on me and will die." She said in sad entrancing voice.
Inuyasha looked down to see the tears from her eyes. " But how do you know that's true?" He questioned her skeptically yet hopefully.
Kagome smiled as hard as she could, trying to hold back the rest of her tears. " I know it's true because in my time we have these doctors who know about all types of diseases and illnesses and they know how to figure which people have them and which people don't. They tested me for the heart disease and found that I do have it. I know they can't be wrong about it because…" she paused for a moment as a tear fled from her left eye's corner. " You see my father died from the same disease." She choked out as quickly as possible. He then held her a bit closer. She felt so cold, her skin was cold but her tears were so warm. He didn't know what to say, there wasn't much he could say, she had know her disease to be true so that meant there was possible way she could be wrong. She looked so sad lying in arms, but he still had to try and say something to comfort her in her time of need.
"Kagome! Will find away through this! I know if we stay together, we be able to beat this sickness and you won't die; I promise you!" He said in a very hopeful voice.
Kagome hugged him close and tightly, " Inuyasha, I trust you with my life, but if we do stay together forever I would only bring you down and everyone else, are you sure that's what you want." She asked, sadly. She didn't want to bring them all down in their hunt for the jewel shards, in this moment Inuyasha probably forgot about the jewel shards and since she reminded him about them, he probably wouldn't want her to stay anymore. A tear trickled down her face at the thought of him telling her to leave because she bring them all down, she never wanted to be someone who brought people down.
" I would never think that, I want you to stay okay?" He said firmly. Her eye's shot open wide, he wanted her to stay even thought she would make searching for jewel shards more difficult then it already had been. More tears glided down her cheeks but this time it wasn't because she was sad, it was because she was happy.
" Inuyasha," she said sweetly but calm. She then smiled and hugged him as tight as she could. " Thanks! Then I guess I will stay with you forever, at least until my end."
"What did I just tell you?" Inuyasha shrieked out in a sad voice. He could feel Kagome practically jump out of her skin at his sudden out burst. "I told you your not going to die and I meant it!" He then calmed down a bit.
" You won't die okay." He was completely sure that before her time was up he would find away to save her from meeting the angel of death.
Kagome eyes expanded and a slight tear glistened within each one; she was so jubilant towards what he had said. She even felt that she could believe him that she wouldn't die.
" Are you going to tell everyone else? Or we could keep it to ourselves if you prefer?" he questioned her compassionately. She did need to tell them something, but she has lied to them for to long it probably would be best if she told them the truth.
" I will tell them the truth, as soon as we leave." she said indifferently. She didn't know really how to tell Shippo, she was like his adoptive mom and if she told him she would be leaving him forever it would break his heart just like when his real father had left him. Miroku might be sad she didn't know really if he would be! He was such a pervert he might just try and use her vulnerability to try something with her. She couldn't help but laugh at that thought, he was so lecherous but still he had a very good heart, which meant she was wrong to say something like that about him. He was her friend; a real good friend like Sango was, it will be real hard to tell him the truth also. Kagome yawn she was getting real tired but she still didn't want to leave yet; she liked laying on Inuyasha he was so comfortable.
Inuyasha gaped entrancingly up at the cotton-like clouds. He would find away for her to live. There had to be away, he just hadn't thought of it yet. He probably should ask Kaede for help, she always knew just what to do in situation such as this one. He looked down at Kagome to see that she had fallen asleep on him, he knew she wasn't dead or fainted or anything like that because she was breathing fine and was slightly moving in her sleep. A slight blush filled his face. She had fallen asleep on him; he didn't mind it all too much though. He didn't feel the need to wake either he'd rather just let her rest for awhile all that fainting, tearing and not to mention that battle she had with Naraku must of made her real tired. He then began to recall the battle with Naraku with a slight grin. Kagome was so strong against that monster and the energy he could feel around her was amazingly strong about as strong as he was; She really was amazing!
~ Dream sequence
Kagome could feel the pain in her heart as pulsated throughout her body. She was lying down in a field of wildflowers and her friends were sitting near her with pained expressions. Inuyasha was holding her hand, tears swamping his face.
" Kagome I'm so sorry!" the word sorry ranged through her head over and over again as scenes of UN heard of memories or maybe visions played over and over and over in her mind. Her vision pulsated as she saw these images in her mind's eye.
The first picture she received was of Inuyasha, he was in a tree, and he wasn't moving people were passing by him but her vision was too blurry to figure out as to who they all were. He wasn't making contact with any of them he just sat the like a stone without a soul.
Bum-plup-bum! The vision phased out of her mind followed by another. A longhaired man walked in the grass along the dirt road, his face and body structure was hidden from her all she could see was his long silver hair. Was it Inuyasha? She didn't know. He stopped half way down the road and turned, and then her vision went black.
After a few seconds of seeing dark another scene played out before her. Someone but she could tell who was being placed into the ground for burial purposes. They all surround the body, the people surrounded the body, Shiny glistening tears fell from their faces, but they were all to shadowy for her to see whom they were. A light voice could be heard 'Kagome no!' it repeated over and over a slight buzzing sound twitched the voices words but she could tell that it was Inuyasha's voice.
A bright yellow flash covered her vision blinding her for a moment's time. When she able to see clearly again she saw herself, tears streaming her face as her body rotted away in the ground. * What's this! It can't be NOOOO. * Her scream played loudly as the scene dispersed into nothingness. It was dark, her world became dark as the last flower fell into his hand, and he crumpled it tightly. A laugh could be heard, as the memory played it's self out.
Shippo and Kagome were playing tag in the field of wildflowers; she chased him all over as the field's heavy winds blew the flowers around them. She chased him all over the place, until she finally pounced him to the ground. " Kagome you promise you wont leave me, I don't want be alone again." she smiled, the brightest smile lighting up the whole sky towards the little kitsune before her.
" I would never leave you!" A white smoky dust filled her mind, moving her mind away to another place in time.
Inuyasha gasped for air as he had gotten poisoned from the Spider head Youkai, his face was looming with sweat, * Hugh mmm. * " Sorry I didn't wake you up! Did I?"
His eye's opened slowly. " No!" he then lay his head to the side not facing her. " Kagome!"
" What is it?" she questioned him curiously.
"Tell me something! Why were you crying?"
Her eye's expanded greatly. " Back in the other room!" She remembered when she dove towards him trying to save him from the Youkai. " Because I thought I was going to lose you! I thought you were going to, die!" she choked out.
" You shed tears for me! Cried for me! Kagome if it's not to much trouble may I lie on your lap." He said not looking at her eyes; his eyes were so full of confusion his emotions were cluttered with feelings he had never felt before.
" How do you feel, a little better then before" she asked compassionately.
" Yes! Kagome you smell kind of nice!" he said in an entrancing voice.
" Okay that's it you made a point of telling me before that you couldn't stand my sent." She stated simply for the record with a confused look in her eyes.
" I did, but I was lying!" He said truthfully as he fell into a deep slumber.
* Huh maybe the poison really has gone to his head! Yet, all this talk has my heart pounding! Okay now I'm confused! He's a sleep! *
The last flower fell once more into his hand as he crumpled it tightly. Her mind vision went white a soothing sound of the summer breeze could be felt in her mind and body. It faded, the smoke faded away revealing the field of flowers once more she could feel the pain in her heart it was ripping at her, ripping at her very soul, she was growing very tired. Her friends were sitting near her with pained expressions. Inuyasha was holding her hand tears swamping his face.
" Kagome I'm so sorry!" The flowers began to blow all over the place covering her fully. It was as if she was being buried in them. It all went dark; she couldn't feel her body anymore. It was as if it weren't even there, like it was just her soul resting in eternal darkness. She couldn't see or breath anymore all she could do was listen as voices came. The voices came into her soul torturing her with their sad meaning.
" Kagome no!
" Kagome you promise you won't leave me, I don't want to be alone again!"
" You cried for me shed tears for me!"
" He's a sleep."
A laugh could be heard in the darkness as the words clouded her, ruthlessly bashing at her soul. She could see where the laugh was coming from. The voices kept her mind busy while her soul lingered towards the mirthless laughs.
" Don't leave me KAGOME!"
" Your brains busted or something!"
" Naraku placed this wind tunnel on my right hand, and the only way to break the curse it to destroy him!"
" I will get revenge for my brother, for my family. Naraku must die… "
Her soul lingered alone through the darkness for the voice, that laughing voice that seemed to pierce her very soul in half.
" I will avenge Kikyou's death, I will kill this Naraku!"
It finally came to her. It was a woman she was surrounded in flames that seemed to engulf her body; she was laughing at the pour wandering soul. She wore a priestess outfit her hair was as dark as the night's evil light, her name couldn't even be spoken without a few tears and fears.
" HA, HA, HA, HA, did you actually think he cared about you! You are me that is all you will ever be! To him that's all you will ever be a younger version of me! And once you die he forget you and come back to Me." her voice was so cold and full of evil and hatred. The soul cried out, it cried with tears that seemed to go on for eternity.
" Leave me alone! Just go away! Leave me alone, why won't you leave me alone? Please just go away!" the soul buried itself deep within it's own self. It began to fade into nothingness while the screams and the laughs plagued her mind repeatedly.
~ Dream sequence ends ~
Inuyasha was beginning to fall asleep also, when he felt Kagome jerk away, he glimpsed down at her still sleeping form. She had tears streaming the lines of her face, as she began to move all over the place, he could hear her mumbling in her sleep. His sensitive ears could barely even pick it up until she screamed. " Leave me alone! Just go away please! I don't like this anymore! Please just go away!"
What was wrong with her she was crying and screaming for someone leave her alone, but nothing was happening to her, could she be having a nightmare? Her eyes jostled open wide as she pounced up in an upright position from the ground. She was breathing heavily sweat was dripping from her face burning the dirt as each one fell.
She turned to see Inuyasha gawking at her. " Kagome are you okay?" He questioned her; his voice was full of worry. She managed to calm herself down enough to be able to answer his question.
" It was nothing, just a nightmare," she stated simply.
He could feel the fear imbedded deep in her voice." Do you want to talk about it?" he asked her compassionately.
She shook her head a she laid back down on him. " I just want to lay here for a moment." She closed her eyes as if to fall back asleep, but in that moment rose back up from him. " Inuyasha?"
" What?" he questioned.
" I want to go back to Kaede's hut to see Sango and Miroku." She stated simply.
" How do you know that's where they will be? He asked curiously.
" Sango told me that she and Miroku would be waiting there for us." He nodded as they both stood from the ground to embark on a journey towards Kaede's. He watched her closely as they were walking; she seemed to be deep in thought. He was worried about her, he saw the fear within her visage while she was dreaming, and he could feel how insecure she was in her slumber. She felt cold and distant while they were walking. He needed to know what was wrong with her, he felt very scared for her.
" Kagome are you sure you don't want to talk about it?" he asked trying to pry a little further, hoping to learn a little more about what was wrong with her.
" No I'm fine," It somewhat broke his heart that she wouldn't open up to him but just hoped that she was okay.
