"Kagome, Kagome! Wake up!" screamed a familiar voice as Kagome shot off the futon.
"Wha…" I said as I rubbed my eyes, completely out of it.
"Shippo needs to be changed." said Miroku, the one who woke her up. (Did I mention Shippo's only 1yrs.old here? Well, he is, and Kagome usually protects and takes care of him, even if it's dangerous.)
"Huh? Oh, okay…" I said as I changed Shippo, still half asleep.
I was exhausted, I had been training extra hard lately, both with Sango and by myself. (Sango is teaching Kagome in the Demon Slayers way.) I know I'll eventually have to tell them, so I know I'll also have to make a demonstration. I also want to make sure I'm strong enough to fight to fight anything that may find me alone. I also want to be able to protect my friends, in fact, maybe I should show them my secret instead of telling them, it would be a lot easier.
"Kagome? You look really tired, maybe you should lie down and sleep." Sango said in a worried tone. I know I shouldn't have, but I was tired, and whenever I sleep I tend to sleep through ANYTHING.
So the last thing I saw before truly letting myself sleep were the worried faces of my 'family,' my second family at least.
(Sango's POV.)
I watched as she fell asleep, she's really pushing herself to get stronger. I know her secret already, but something tells me there's more to it. It worries me the way she pushes herself, it's like she's preparing to face death, which we will have to do, eventually. Kagome's like a sister to me, it hurts that she would keep something from me, but I know that she's keeping it for a good reason.
"HELP! THERE'S AN EVIL WITCH! HELP!" a scream came as the gang, except the sleeping Kagome and baby Shippo.
We went out to she an old wrinkled woman with beady little eyes.
"WHAT DO YOU WANT, WITCH!" InuYasha shouted in his usual manner. The old woman smirked, chanted a stunning spell, and said,
"YOU have nothing to worry about, I merely came to see the girls." the woman looked at me and Kagome who had subconsciously grabbed Shippo closer to her in a protective embrace. Suddenly, the witch turned her eyes to me.
"No barriers at all on you, but the other…" she began as she turned to Kagome. "has more than enough to cover some powerful auras."
The witch smirked, and started to chant.
"WHAT THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!" InuYasha Screamed, enraged and confused at what was going on. He clawed at the spell, and after much effort, he broke it.
"I'LL KILL YOU B!"( I don't swear, I'm Catholic. Also, InuYasha swears and shouts a lot, ne?)
And with that he brought his claws down and slashed the old woman but not before these words were uttered.
"It matters not, the damage has been done, my master shall find his daughter, no matter what time she is in. Turn around and see your friend now."
We all turned around to Kagome becoming younger, a deaging spell? What good would that do? Then a certain aura hit me full force,
'It couldn't be….'
Ja Ne!
