Chapter 8

It was raining heavily as the dawn started to appear in the horizon. Even though I was in doors somewhere a way from my home, I knew from the dusty window that I was looking out of that the day was not going to be a sunny one at any point. Awaking from being knocked out I started to gradually remember what happened last night.

FLASH BACK

The door handle started to twist and the door opened slowly as light flooded into the room that was once dark. He was still and stared at the door where Inuyasha was standing surprise to see Sesshoumaru holding me against my will. Inuyasha took no time to draw his sword and even though if he were to attack he would be attacking me instead of Sesshoumaru.

Inuyasha stood there waiting to attack at the right moment but Sesshoumaru kept his grip on me to make sure that I wouldn't get away from him when he would make his move. It was silent and nothing happened between everyone that was there.

As Inuyasha clutched his sword tighter and tighter the grip that Sesshoumaru had was doing the same. I started to feel faint, as the grip started to leave me breathless and powerless as for he seemed to be weaken me so that I wouldn't struggle to get away.

Inuyasha started to move forward since he was running out of patients with the silent and stare game. Just before they went against each other I was thrown out of the way but I collided into a corner of a shelf that was hanging on a wall beside my bed. The sharp pain caused me to start to black… my last image was the clash of the two swords and the sounds that is made before the image was gone.

END FLASHBACK

As the flashback kept replaying in my mind more questions I had been developing in my head were bubbling, as I wanted to know the answer to them all. Questions like… what happened last night? Was it all a dream? Is Inuyasha ok? Why does this stuff have to happen to me when it could be someone else?

In a world of endless questions, footsteps could be heard from where I was. They were getting bigger, louder and they seem to be heading in my direction. I lifted myself up with what strength I had and looked around.

" I can't see anything yet it's close by… I can feel it."

The footsteps stopped and all was silent again in the room where the force of rain can be heard on the windows. Whatever it was I had a feeling that it's watching and waiting for it's right moment to attack like a predator watching it's helpless prey. I fell back down onto the ground since my arms have given up on keeping me perched up. I watched the rainfall down on the window since that was my only light that was there to keep me at a point of comfort. The footsteps started again but they were coming from behind me I was too weak to move yet I couldn't let this unknown force get me this easily with the little defence I had.

"I have been waiting for you to come around so I can take away what you have!"

I hadn't heard it before… this cold, dark and distant voice and what did it mean by take away what I have. What could it be? My life? Or could it be my new love… Inuyasha?
