CHAPTER 1
"Kagome, are you sure you don't wanna come with me?" Kagome's best friend, Sango, asked as she stood in the living room doorway, waiting for her blind friend to reply.
Kagome was sitting in a red leather chair and was staring blankly at the far wall, not even knowing what she was looking at. Kagome heaved a heavy sigh. "I'm sure, Sango." She replied, her voice almost as empty as her stare.
It had been little over a year sence Kagome had lost her sight and her family. She had learned to adapt to life with no sight, but what she hadn't adapted to was not having her family with her. When Kagome had been released from the hospital she had come to live with Sango. Kagome hasn't left Sango's house sence the day she set foot in it.
Every time Sango would leave the house to go grocery shopping or out to watch a movie she would always ask Kagome if she wanted to go and every time Kagome would give her the same answer, no.
Sango knew her friend was depressed about losing her family, and she had tried everything in her will power to help her but her friends condition only seemed to worsen over time.
Every night Sango would here Kagome cry herself to sleep in her room and it broke Sango's heart to hear her friend in such emotional pain.
Sango sighed as well. "Alright. I'll be back soon, okay?" She said and walked towards her blind friend, making her foot steps loud so that Kagome would hear her coming.
Kagome nodded her head. "Sango, before you leave could I ask you a question?" Kagome asked and turned her head in the direction she heard Sango.
"Of course you can." Sango replied and sat on the arm of the chair.
Kagome turned and looked at the wall again. "Whats it look like outside today?" She asked, still staring blankly at the wall.
Sango smiled slightly. Kagome would ask her what kind of day it was at least once a week. She looked out the living room window. "Well, the sun is shining today, theres hardly a cloud in the sky. The sakura blossoms are beginning to bloom and theres birds out today, flying through the skies, and little kids are out playing." Sango said.
Kagome was quiet for a minute. "Sota would have liked this day." She said in a whispery, sad voice.
Sango looked at her blind friend with sympathy in her eyes and laid a comforting hand on her shoulder. Sango was about to open her mouth to say something soothing to the young woman, but a car horn honked and interupted her.
"That'll be Miroku." Sango said, a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth at the thought of her perverted boyfriend.
Kagome didn't say anything, she just stared at the wall. "I'll be back soon, Kagome." Sango said and embraced her friend in a sisterly way.
Kagome returned the embrace. "Have fun with Miroku tonight, Sango." Kagome said after they had parted from the embrace.
Sango gave Kagome's hand one final squeeze then walked out of the living room and out the front door to Miroku's waiting car.
Miroku got out of the car and gave Sango a kiss hello. His hand began to wander downward slightly and Sango slapped his cheek. "Hentai." She muttered.
Miroku's face turned into a frown. "Sango, is something bothering you? You weren't really into your slapping." He observed as he wrapped his arms around Sango in a comforting way.
Sango smiled slightly. "You must be the only person who can tell how I'm feeling by the way I slap you." She said as she wrapped her arms around him in return. She sighed again. "Its Kagome." She finally said.
Miroku instantly knew that it was serious by the tone of Sango's voice. "Whats wrong with her?" He asked as he began to lead Sango to his car. He opened the passenger door and let Sango get in then closed it and walked around the car to get in on the other side.
"She's beginning to lose weight and she hasn't eatin anything in the past two days. Miroku, I'm worried about her." Sango said once he was in the car.
Miroku looked at Sango's worried filled face. He sighed slightly then draped an arm over her shoulders. "Don't worry, Sango. Kagome will be alright. She's just coping with her family's death." He explained to his tense girlfriend.
Sango shook her head. "I don't think so. I think she blames herself for their death. If she doesn't stop what she's doing she won't live." Sango said with a catch in her voice. Just the thought of losing her best friend was enough to break Sango's heart.
Miroku wrapped his arms around Sango in a comforting way. "Sango, Kagome has been through a lot the past year. Not only has she lost her sight, but she has lost her family all in one day and that can be quiet shocking to a person." Miroku said as Sango laid her head on his shoulder. "She will get better, it'll just take time a patience. Just let her know that your there for her." He murmered into Sango's ear.
Sango looked up and was lost in Miroku's eyes. He leaned his head down and caught her lips in a soft, loving kiss. When he pulled back Sango's eyes were still closed. "Feel better?" He asked.
Sango opened her eyes and smiled. "Yes, much better." She said and snuggled into the warmth of Miroku's body.
Sango's left eye suddenly began to twitch like mad. "Hentai!" She yelled and slapped him as hard as she could in his face.
Miroku smile and rubbed his throbbing cheek. "Now that's the Sango I know and love."
**
Kagome heard Sango yell 'hentai' and the sound of her hand making contact with Miroku's face. Before the accident, Kagome might have laughed, but now she didn't even crack a smile. She felt like she had nothing to be happy about.
Kagome heaved a sigh and reached to her side to retrieve her walking stick. She pushed herself out of the chair and slowly made her way towards the kitchen, tapping her stick along the floor. Her stick banged against the kithen counter and she brought her hands up to it so she could feel her way to the sink.
She reached the sink and felt around for a cup. She found one then filled it with water. She turned the sink off and slowly made her way out of the kitchen and towards her bedroom, tapping her stick along the way. She walked over towards her bed and sat down. She took a sip of her water then sat it on her bed side table.
She reached under her pillow and pulled out an object. She ran her fingers along the soft feathery top of it. 'This is the reason I'm alone.' She thought as her grip tightened on the feathered pen. 'If I hadn't had taken it from Sota everyone would be here today.' She felt tears well up in her un-seeing eyes. She let them fall unchecked down her pale face, not even caring.
She felt the filmilure tightening of her throat and reach for her glass of water. Instead of her hand grasping her cup, it bumped into the edge of the table and the heard a crash as her cup went tumbling from the table to the carpeted floor of Kagome's room.
Kagome didn't move to pick it up. She just sat there, her hands over her face, crying. Kagome heard a meow and she felt a small weight jump on to her bed. Then she felt a warm little body curl up in her lap and purr soothingly to her. "Hey, Kirara." Kagome said in a broken sounding voice. She reached a hand down and patted Sango's two tailed cat.
Kirara purred louder, making a smooth rumbling rythem.
Kagome laid back on her bed and Kirara came up and snuggled into the distressed girls arms. Kirara would do this sometimes, when Kagome couldn't sleep Kirara would come and snuggle up with her and purr soothingly untill she would fall asleep.
Kagome's sobs became quieter and guieter then stopped all together. Kagome's eyes became heavy and slowly drifted closed. She was on the brink of falling asleep but was soundly jerked wide awake when she heard a very loud 'bang' on the front door. "Go away." Kagome moaned. It was silent for a minute, then the bang came again, louder and more persistant this time.
Kagome groaned miserably then rolled out of bed. Kirara jumped up on Kagome's shoulder and rubbed her head against Kagome's face. Kagome grabbed her stick then made her way to the living room. The bang came again. "I'm coming, I'm coming." She muttered in mono tone.
Kagome finally reached the door and turned the door nob. "Yes, what do you want?" She asked and waited for a reply. None came. Kagome frowned. "Is anybody there?" She called. Still no answer. She felt something brush against her legs.
"Kirara?" She asked, think it might be the two tailed cat.
"Meow." Came Kirara's answering call from atop Kagome's shoulder. Kagome bent down and held out her hands, trying to feel what had brushed against her.
Something soft and fuzzy came into contact with Kagome's hand and she grasped it. She was surprised when she heard a low growling noise. She instantly let go and a look of shook took over her face. "A dog?"
