WOTW- Even more reviews! ::sigh:: I feel so loved! Hugs to you all! And apparently there are some Hojo haters out there. ::scans crowd:: There's a few now! Hey! What up homes? Yes that was random. Well it's 3:53 AM and my homie Tabi has her away message on so I'll just type until she comes back or I get tired. Yeah I should be asleep cause I have to start getting up early for school but... Right I'll stop ranting and let you read now.
Disclaimer- ::sigh:: ::rubs temples:: Let me get this straight: You STILL haven't figured out I don't own them yet?
"Kagome", Hojo came out of his car arms open.
"Hojo?"
"Kagome", he ran at her throwing her arms around her.
Hesitantly Kagome hugged him back sending a few nervous glances around.
"Oh God it's been so long!" He practically threw his face at her.
Kagome stepped away. "Yeah um I guess it has." She bit her lower lip. 'Not good not good soo not good. Why did you have to show up now?'
"Well look who it is", Hojo turned to InuYasha. "Kagome's rival. Shouldn't you be dead?"
"Shouldn't you be road kill", he pointed to the bent up car.
"So I got in a few fights. Kagome doesn't want ME dead."
"Me either."
Hojo let out a laugh scaring most of the teens. (Hey I'd be scared!)
"Um Hojo it's the truth", Kagome said blushing furiously and twisting the material on her sleeves through her fingers.
"Oh I see... you decided to leave her alone then eh", Hojo said.
"Hojo! We broke up! Okay I do not like you anymore." Kagome slightly gasped at the words escaping from her own mouth. She clamped her hands over her lips getting lip gloss on her palms. (Trust me... not a pleasant feeling.)
"Well I see if that's the way it is. Well would you like a ride home then? Since your bus is broken down?" He smiled a sweet smile.
"Really? Um okay." She glanced at InuYasha. He stared suspiciously at Hojo and nodded. Kagome had her cell phone. Besides she was a big girl. Not like it was his job to protect her or anything right?
"Hop in", Hojo opened a dented door.
The ride was silent as they sped down the highway. Soon they were approaching Kagome's exit. Hojo drove past.
"Um hey Hojo I know it's been two years so if you forgot that was my exit." She pointed behind them.
"Oh I didn't forget."
"Um then where are we going?"
He sped up the car putting the top up on the convertible. (Don't ask.) "You didn't think I'd actually let InuYasha have you did you? I saw the way you two were flirting. Don't deny it. And don't even THINK of calling anyone on your cell phone. I'll just take it away from you." He smiled maniacally. (Can you say psycho path!?)
"I won't..." She slipped her finger into her pocket and hit a speed dial button. (My ficcy and I say her cell phone has speed dial. Deal.)
InuYasha's cell phone rang. He pulled it out of his pocket. It was Kagome. Rather than answer he was running down the road. Pretty soon Hojo's dented up piece of crap car was in sight.
Hojo caught a glimpse of InuYasha in his rear view mirror. "You had to call him didn't you wench? Too bad he can't help you this time." Hojo swerved off of the bridge they were on.
Everything seemed to happen in slow motion to the witnessing hanyou. The dented piece of crap swerved sideways and slammed head first into the guard rail knocking a hole in it. Then it began to plummet towards the water below.
Hojo laughed a scary crazed deranged laugh throwing his head back as the car came feet from the icy water.
Kagome wore a look of shock and horror. Memories of her laugh flashed before her the most recent of InuYasha. She screamed in horror as the car fell closer and closer to the water.
InuYasha could yet only watch horrified as the car smashed into the water sending waves out. Air bubbles floated to the surface.
Inside the car Hojo had the windows up and was staring at Kagome. "When I go down babe you're coming with me."
Kagome stared out into the murky water trying to undo her seat belt to no avail. (She was panicking and panic will do that to ya.)
InuYasha leaped off of the side of the road into the water. The car would be hard to find. A brown car in equally as brown water. (I know eww!)
Hojo hit the electric window button (I don't know what it's called.) and the windows all rolled down. He flipped the car off. "And bid this world farewell dear Kagome." He breathed in deeply as water rushed into the car.
Kagome took a deep breath before becoming completely submerged. She tried again to undo her seat belt but found Hojo's hand covering it. She looked out into the water. Something red caught her eye before everything went black.
InuYasha saw Kagome's eyes barely open. She shut them. Within seconds he was at the window. With a swift movement he cut her seat belt and pulled her out of the car leaving Hojo to his death. (Haha!)
Within another few seconds they surfaced. A crowd was gathered above but InuYasha could've cared less. Kagome was still unconscious. He swam them both to shore.
"Kagome", he said wiping a hand over her cheek. "Wake up." He shook her gently. "Kagome", he said her name louder shaking her again. 'She's still breathing... why won't she wake up?' "Kagome!" He took her by the shoulders and pulled her off of the ground nearly shaking the life out of her. (Heh that was unintentional.)
"Kagome", someone was calling her name. But all around her was dark. "Wake up." "I am awake", she said. "Kagome!" The ground shook and she fell down. "Who are you? Can you tell me where I am? What happened?" The blackness swirled out of order until a few faces appeared.
She stood surrounded by tall hedges in the middle of some sort of twisted garden. "Okay game over! This is NOT funny InuYasha!" A little girl dressed in a blue shirt and jeans came out from behind a bush. "I said game over now come get me out of here InuYasha!"
Kagome recognized it as herself when she had been seven.
A little boy in a red shirt and jeans came out. "Haha Kagome! You couldn't even find your way out of a stupid maze!"
"Can it dog boy!"
"Why don't you make me Higurashi?"
The little Kagome pushed him into a patch of mud and grass. "Haha! InuYasha you're all dirty!"
'This isn't so bad.' Present Kagome sat down. Someone was still calling her name but she ignored it and watched herself playing with the mini InuYasha.
Meanwhile back in the real world she was in a coma. InuYasha ran into her room and sat by her bed.
"Kagome I know you can hear me. Snap out of it." He took her hand in his. Her face was blank. "Kagome you have to come back to me. Just open your eyes Kagome. Kagome." He lay his head down next to hers.
Kagome watched herself grow up very quickly and was soon brought to a familiar sight. InuYasha stood at her window. And she was in her PJ's.
"What don't you trust me?" Somehow they ended up at a beach. 'I remember. This wasn't that long ago. Where am I?'
The field trip, Hojo... and then...
Kagome's face expression changed and InuYasha knew something was happening. "Kagome you can't die. You can't let your memories kill you! Just stop watching."
Kagome watched herself scream and fall into the water. She felt herself gasping for air and no one came to help her. And then she was alone in the car as everything slowly faded to black.
A small tear escaped InuYasha's amber eyes as he lay his head down next to Kagome's again. "Kagome you can't die now. Please come back." He closed his eyes. "Kagome you can't die on me." He lowered his voice to a whisper next to her ear. "I think... that I love you."
WOTW- Ow I AM cruel. Cruel as can be. So will Kagome die? Did she hear anything InuYasha said? And what about Hojo? Is he really dead? And we can't count Kagome and InuYasha's friends and family out of this. The plot just twists and twists and twists and whoa I feel dizzy. Well more to come next chapter and the one after that. As usual review and you will have my undying affection and love!
