Chapter #1 Memories and Suspicions
October 25th
10:49 Tokyo Cemetery
A thick, gray mist covered the cemetery
as Inuyasha walked to Kikyou's grave.
'One year. I can't
believe its been one whole year since it happened.'
Flashback
October 25th 5:55 Kikyou and Inu's apartment
" Kikyou I'm
home. Kiky-" Inuyasha gasped as he saw Kikyou's mangled corpse
lying in the doorway of their bedroom. He ran to her. Checking for a
pulse he whispered " Why did this happen? We were supposed to be
together. We were going to get married."
"
KIKYOOOOOOUUUUU!"
End Flashback
He knelt down in
front of Kikyou's grave and his eyes shone with unshed tears. "
Even though your gone there will always be a hole in my heart where
you once resided. Kagome doesn't even compare to you. I want you to
know that no one will ever replace you. I still love you, Kikyou.
He
visited Kikyou's grave everyday to mourn over her death and laid out
a bouquet of ten red and white roses in front of her tombstone. But
today was different. Today was the one-year anniversary of Kikyou's
death. Tears silently fell down his face as he remembered the day of
her funeral
Flashback
November 2nd 3:32 Tokyo
Cemetery
Rain fell heavily on the mourning funeral goers as
the priest finished his sermon.
" And so Inuyasha would
now like to say a few words." the priest said. Inuyasha walked
up to the podium, behind the casket, cleared his throat and wiped the
tears from his eyes.
" Kikyou was a great woman."
His voice wavered as he looked at the crowd. " And I know that
we'll never forget her. She'll always be in our hearts and memories."
With that said Inuyasha stepped off the podium and took his seat next
to Keade, Kikyou's younger sister.
As the lowered Kikyou's
casket into her grave Inuyasha could no longer hold back his tears.
He wept openly for his dead lover.
End Flashback
(Beep
beep) (Beep beep)
" Huh? Oh!" Inuyasha wiped the
freshly shed tears as he answered his cell phone.
"
Hello?"
" Hey Inuyasha" Kagomes' perky voice
said. " I was wondering if you wanted to go to The Five Clover
later?" (AN: the Five Clover is a club i thought up.)
"
Yeah. Sure Kagome. I'll meet you at your house around 1'o clock.
Ok?
" Ok see ya then. Bye!"
" Bye"
"
Sometimes she can be so annoying but I still love her but not as much
as Kikyou. Never as much as I did Kikyou." Inuyasha murmured as
he pocketed his cell phone. He looked at his watch and saw that he
had been there for a little less than an hour. (AN: His watch reads
11: 37) ' Looks like I have about an hour and a half until I meet
Kagome'
As Inuyasha got up he read Kikyous' tombstone one last
time. It read
Kikyou Kametari
1977-2002
Loving sister
and girlfriend
' There will never be another Kikyou'
Sadly
Inuyasha walked away from her gravesite, thinking about all the times
he and Kikyou had shared.
12:52 Kagome's Apartment (Ding-dong)
Kagome was busy fixing
her hair when she heard the doorbell ring. 'Oh. He's here early'
"
Coming" she called while hurrying to the door. " Hey
Inuyasha!" she said while kissing him on the cheek. The look he
wore worried her. Even though he was giving her a warm smile he held
a sad look in his eyes and he looked paler than usual.
"
Hey, what's wrong? Are you all right?
"Yeah I'm fine.
Why?" Inuyasha asked.
" Oh it's nothing" she
replied " C'mon. Sango and Miroku are waiting for us.
"You
didn't say Miroku and Sango were going to be there."
"
Why? That's okay isn't? I thought you liked Miroku and Sango."
"
I do it's just that-" he cut himself. He didn't want to hurt
Kagomes' feelings.
" What?"
" Nothing.
Lets go"
At the club
(Techno
plays in the background)
" Miroku, I was wondering if you
could talk to Inuyasha for me." Kagome asked the older boy.
"
Why? Do you think there is something wrong with him?" Miroku
inquired
" No. It's just that he hasn't been acting like
himself lately. When I look into his eyes he looks distant and far
off and he always looks like he's sad. To tell you the truth it's
kinda scary. It's like he's a whole different person."
"
If it will make you feel better, Kagome, I will talk to him for you."
He gave Kagome a reassuring smile.
" Thank you, Miroku. I
owe you for this one." Thanking Miroku she walked to the bar and
sat down next to her friend Sango.
" What would you like,
honey." the bar keep asked Kagome.
" One screwdriver
on the rocks please." Kagome replied " Sango?"
"
Yeah Kagome"
" Sango, I was wondering if you ever
felt like Miroku was keeping a secret from you on purpose?"
"
No. Why?"
" It's nothing. It's just that sometimes I
feel like Inuyasha isn't telling me something, something that had a
major impact on his life. Plus he's been acting differently. He's not
acting like himself."
" It's probably nothing
Kagome. He's probably just having a bad week or something. He'll
probably be acting like himself in no time." Sango said trying
to reassure the younger girl.
"Yeah I guess your right,
Sango." Kagome said not entirely convinced.
"
Anyway, since we're here we should enjoy ourselves." she said
dragging Kagome toward the dance floor. " C'mon!"
Miroku and Inuyasha's Talk
Miroku
walked over to the table Inuyasha was sitting at. " Inuyasha, is
something bothering you?
" Feh. Why would there be
anything be wrong with me? Why do you care anyway?" Inuyasha
asked arrogantly
" Kagome is quite worried about you. She
just thought that something was wrong with you. She says that you're
acting differently."
" God. I don't want her to
worry about me. I guess I'm going to have to tell her."
"
Tell her about what, Inuyasha"
" You know idiot.
Think."
" Oh. About Kikyou?"
" Yeah
about Kikyou. What else? Do me a favor would you, Miroku?"
"
What?"
" Go find Kagome and tell her it's time to
go."
" Sure Inuyasha. Godspeed."
"
Thanks"
Miroku left to find Kagome and left Inuyasha
alone to think. ' God. I didn't want her to find out about Kikyou so
soon but what choice do I have. I can either tell her which would
hurt me like hell or not tell her and risk losing her.'
(sighs)
Unbeknownst to Inuyasha a woman had heard every detail
of the conversation and was calling her boss. "Yes Master
Naraku. Yes, I have her address. I'll follow them to see where
they're going." The woman hung up and smirked evilly.
That's it for chapter 1. Please tell me if
you like. Wow I typed a lot. 4 and a half page and 1,296 words.
That's an all time goal for me.
