BEFORE YOU READ: This story takes place when Kagome died two hundred years
before. And Inuyasha and co. are still living because of the Shikon no
Tama. And Kasumi, a fire hanyou, takes Kagome's place in the group and is
falling for Inuyasha. But that's another story. This story's about Naiomi
Ikumori, or Naiomi Itsura, who falls for a certain taiyoukai...
She froze. She didn't like this situation. Not the least bit. There she was. In..."his" arms...kissing him! And she knew that she wanted to brake away and pound the living daylight out of him as much as she could. Even though she knew she couldn't. after all....he was the taiyoukai of the west.
~*~*~*~*~
Naiomi ran downstairs and tumbled over her brother's football. "Kyle! Pick up your crap!" she yelled as she ran out of the door. She ran down the street and stopped by the old graveyard.
She stared at the entrance, *that's the seven hundred year ol' abandoned graveyard...* She walked up to the gate. The wind drew her inside in a haunting manor. Her heart started to pound hard against her chest. It was something about that graveyard that sent chills down her spine. She didn't know if it was the haunting aura or the majestic beauty of the scenery on Halloween night.
She turned her attention to the old well in the middle of the yard. It had vines covering the sides and a bare spot, about 7 feet long around, surrounded it where plants refused to grow. It was called the Bone Eater's Well a.k.a. Death Trap.
"They say youkai and ningen, alike, were devoured by the well." Naiomi turned in shock to meet face-to-face with a young man about seventeen. "did I startle you?" the boy asked, "you interested in the history of the Bone Eater's Well?" Naiomi shrugged, "not really. I was just passing by."
The boy smiled, "there was a story of a young maiden who crawled back and forth from the well. She was in love with a hanyou. And when he rejected her, she died in torment. And ever since then, the well devoured people who came within it's reach. They say it well and the maiden were in tune with each other and it shares her pain. See the greenless spot around the well?"
Naiomi looked at it, "yes. What about it?" "that's where the maiden's spirit remains. Never leaving that spot until her beloved will accept her. it's quite sad really," the boy said. He then blushed and laughed nervously, "gomen. I get caught up in the story too much. I'm Naboku. Who are you?" "Naiomi Itsura. I'm a junior in high school," Naiomi said.
"I noticed," Naboku said as he opened the gate to the graveyard, "come on. let's get a closer look." "AT THE WELL!?" Naiomi shouted. Naboku nodded, "yeah. I thought you wanted to see it?" "NOT IF IT'S GOING TO DEVOURE ME!!!!" She screamed. Naboku laughed and dragged her into the graveyard.
Naiomi gulped as she stepped closer to the well. It's aura shining like the sun's rays. Naboku stopped right at the edge of the grass, "we can't go any further. If we do, we might get devoured by the well." Naiomi, apparently not listening, walked into the bare area of the well. Naiomi froze as an earthquake shook the graveyard. Naboku stared in awe as a snake-like youkai appeared out of the well. It reached for Naiomi. Naboku grabbed her arm and tried to pull her out of the sacred area, but to no avail. Naiomi screamed in horror as the youkai grabbed her between it's fangs and dragged her down the well. Naboku fell to the ground and was panting in fear, "was-? Was that-for real?"
