Dear Mom, Grandpa, and Brother:
I hope you are well. I know that I haven't been home in so long, but much has happened, and is happening here. I wish I could explain it all, but I fear that letters are the only way we may be able to communicate from now on. Things that I do not understand have happened. I find myself all alone with Inuyasha angry. I understand that much at least. Though I wish he were not so blind to see himself-
Kagome stopped writing, something was watching her. It walked on four legs, that much she could tell, listening to it's steps. Her hand slid slowly to her belt, soon as it did, a large navy blue mass leaped from the bushes. It was fast enough where Kagome didn't have the time o un-sleeve her sword, but slow enough where someone else had time to step between them.
The creature stopped, Kagome got a look at it. Four massive paws made it a quiet stalker, it's, short but powerful legs provided immense strength needed in climbing and running. The long tail was thick with velvety soft fur, the color navy blue. The head of the animal was that of a predator cat, though it took Kagome a few seconds to realize just what it was. A navy blue panther, though it seemed more the size of a tiger. It's eye were like pools of stars and Kagome was in awe.
A beautiful man turned around to face her. His piercing crystal eyes and fine completion waved in and out of sight as his long red hair danced across his face, complimented by his black outfit. The thin lines that were his lips opened as if he were to say something, but then he looked surprised. Kagome sat helplessly on the ground gawking, until he walked over and helped her up, seeming to have recovered. The tiger sized panther approached and Kagome stumbled backwards.
"It's okay. Leiko won't hurt you, names Akai." He walked over and pet the animal, waiting for Kagome to introduce herself, she didn't so he inquired as to what was her name.
Feeling stupid she replied, "My name is Kagome."
"Hi Kagome. Where are you headed all alone? Someone like you shouldn't be journeying be themselves. Lucky I was here, Leiko has a character like my bother, if he suspected you at all…" his voice trailed off, looking more closely at Kagome. Her hair was long, wavy, and ebony black. With ears slightly pointed, face as bright as the moon, and brilliant eyes of pain shining like dimmed stars, he was intrigued.
Until… Kagome doubled over coughing, she struggle for breath, spitting out blood. "Go please," she cried not wanting to be seen.
"You're a demon. A prophetess…" His eyes glanced the elegant marking on herchest. "Come, I can bring you somewhere safe, where you can rest." He went to help her.
"No, please go." It got worse, she was not spiting out mouthfuls of blood, and she shook uncontrolled.
Akai ignored her please and the blood as he wrapped his arms around her, "Leiko, bring us home." The cat let out a low rumble and stalked toward them, emitting a glow of indigo, then they disappeared.
It's short... so read the next one!
