Chapter 20
Sol gripped his head. "Ug." He moaned.
His brown eyes opened, "W.....eh..... where.....am....." Then yesterday's memory returned.
"How could I disgrace her like that....." Sol mumbled and shuffled out of his bed. He remembered Kagome crying. He almost did something to her..... But his brain didn't take it, he couldn't think anymore. He groaned and clutched his head. But it became unbearable, from standing he dropped to his knees. "AAAAAH!!!!!!" He yelled.
"Sol?! Hey idiot!" A voice yelled.
"Help." Sol said, his brown eyes pitiful.
A flick of silver and red.
"Why are you still human?!" It demanded.
"Inuyasha.....?" Sol mumbled, squinting his eyes
"Yeah, yeah it's me. Hey-!"
Sol blacked out.
!#$%&()!#$%&()
"Sol?" Said a voice he remembered well.
"Wh.....Kaoru?" He mumbled, and sat up painfully.
"So..... why are you still human?" Asked Inuyasha.
"I stay human for a whole month....." Sol slurred out. His fucking head!!!! "UG!" he yelled in disgust. And started to beat his head with his fist.
"You need help with that?" Inuyasha said with a smirk.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome said irritably.
Sol looked around. "Where.....is everyone?" He said weakly.
"They hit their heads and died." Inuyasha said irritably and sarcastically.
"Heel boy!"
A roar of fire..... followed by an angry mumble of curses.
"Are you okay Sol?" asked Kagome.
Sol looked away, he didn't want to see her. His eyes avoided hers.
"So where IS the others.....?" Sol asked, still looking away.
Kagome blinked and explained. "Well, Sango and Miroku went to hunt some food. Akinshu was sick so Rai took her to his fortress, said he had the best medicine....." Kagome ticked her fingers, and one finger was under her chin.
Her raven hair was picked up by the wind and her eyes reflected her eyes.
'She.....looks.....weird." As Sol peeked at her through the corner of his eyes.
So they sat in silence. "..... was I asleep the whole.......time........how long has it been since I blacked out?" Sol asked suddenly.
"A week and three days." Kaoru informed him.
"NANI?!?!?!!? Then how come my head still hurts?!?!?!?!" Sol asked incredulously.
"It's called a hangover." Kagome said.
".....I'm not drinking that stuff ever again........" Sol promised.
"Heh. My head stopped hurting after two days, stupid humans." Inuyasha said.
Kaoru shot him a glare. So Shippo shot one too.
Blake sighed.
!#$%&()!#$!#$%&()!#$%&()
Sol smashed his head to his hands. His hangover was gone but he was frustrated. He still had a whole week before he was his hanyou form. He felt weak. The only difference when Inuyasha was human was Sol's Akusho (his sword remember? Named it this cuz I was thinking of yu yu 'hakusho' so.....just a note.....)did transform.
Not into a big saber thing though. It turned to a rapier, much thinner. But still, sharp.
"HIYAAAAAAAA!!!!!!" Sol yelled a battle cry and charged at the demon. It was a big, stray snow demon. It really looked like the pictures of a big hairy buffoon. But as they were in Graver's Mountain already, these demons were frequent.
Well, the Graver's Mountain wasn't ALWAYS snowy. Sometimes it was like a dessert, with the sand and wind. Other it was a beautiful, lush plain, miles of rippling grass, then there was the snow and wind, the rain could turn into hail and others were to a puddle it could turn into a waving black storm and sea.
The worst of all was they couldn't fall or believe into these traps and illusions, even if they felt the rain or wind. They were crossing the barriers of time. Not to the future or the past, yet not quite at the present. Where the time waited. It was impossible to explain, but everyone felt it. They have fallen out of the wheel of time. Left behind. They couldn't turn back now, they could only go forward.
The demon thumped down. They walked for another kilometer or so. Before Kaoru sat down, completely drained. Shippo massaged her legs and the late teens stared before the rest of the group sat on the floor.
"WHAT?! C'MON!!!! LET'S MOVE!!!!" Inuyasha yelled. Seeing everyone sitting down.
"Inuyasha, can't we please rest?" Kagome asked sweetly.
"No!" He quipped.
"Can I please REST?!" Kagome asked again, this time not so sweetly.
"NO! It's not my fault you're so fucking fat! Move!" Inuyasha scolded angrily.
"INUYASHAAAA!!!!!! HEEL!!!!!!!!"
His face charred, Inuyasha sat down grudgingly.
The group grew less. It was only Inuyasha, Kagome, Sol, Shippo, Kaoru and Blake.
Akinshu's poison earlier was too powerful to be healed here, she had to return to the future and go to a hospital. Rai accompanied her, eager to see the future.
Kagome and Inuyasha had a big argument. She went back home. Sango and Miroku was too angry to stay with Inuyasha and went ahead to the Mountain first. Kagome returned a few days later, everything was fine. So now what was leftover of the group was left.
Sol gripped his head and massaged his temples.
Kaoru and Shippo quieted. They were no longer hyper-active kids anymore. They knew the danger of being separated from the group. Gratefully, they quietly sat at 'their' laps. In other words, Kaoru sat at Kagome's lap and Shippo sat at Sol's. They felt safe there.
"We got to move." Inuyasha said seriously, he stood up and sniffed the air. "Now." He said warningly.
Sol stood up and put Shippo on his shoulder. His damn 'hangover' was still there. But it was faint enough to let Sol fight.
Sure enough, Inuyasha's nose was undeceived. A shower started to pour down. High, high up to the waists of the adults of the group. (adults or late teens.....yea yea.......) But their feet burned. They were also walking in a dessert.
"Chikusho!!!! Oi! Spellcaster!!!! Change the weather a bit will you?!" Inuyasha yelled over the storm, or preferably, flood. But here, really, it should be called a storm.
Blake raised his staff high. And plunged it to the ground. A bubble like barrier covered the group and neither of the illusion could touch them. Noticing that it cannot harm them the natural chaos dissipated and vanished to lush green hills and flowerbeds that seemed too marvelous to be true.
Inuyasha and Sol slept in a similar position, eyes closed, frowns, arms crossed, swords cradled between the crossed arms.
Kaoru broke into a grin that hasn't been seen for.....days? weeks? months? years? decades? Or even century? No one knew. Time was not.....there..... in the mountain.....
When Sol, or perhaps even more unlikely, Inuyasha rested to a notch less alert, it meant that it would be safe.....for.....for.....for a while.
Then Sol stood up.
Shippo and Kaoru stopped tagging each other and became serious immediately.
Sol looked hardly on both of them. Then gave a sober grin. "What? Can't I smile?" he joked.
Silence rang over the grass. Hardly anyone talked. When anyone did talk it was something serious. But Sol didn't need an answer, Kaoru and Shippo started rolling on the ground again, like lion cubs, tagging and attacking each other. They traded light punches and kicks, this was for training too.
"Kagome." Sol whispered.
Her eyes looked motherly at the two children. She always had that kind and caring look. Sometimes she could be harsh, but still-
Kagome sat on the ground and stared dreamily at the children.
Sol's POV
I stood staring at her. I don't know why I did. But As I looked at Inuyasha his posture was almost relaxed, almost. No one can be relaxed here. I swung my head to Blake and saw my friend's navy hair blowing softly in the wind. He actually looked wise, and could be, and was.....but he usually wasn't. Usually, but nothing is usual here. He usually would joke around.....
I stared at the scene while I could..... it was truly beautiful.
Kagome's POV
I looked from Kaoru and Shippo to Sol. He was glancing far away, over the hills. His black hair swung a little bit by the wind, and his brown eyes were faraway. I don't know why I did. But I can't get the.....time..... back when I was at the village..... He was staring right at me..... so innocently, so........determinedly........
Normal POV
Sol felt a stare at him and blinked, he snapped back to reality. He looked down to Kagome sitting on the ground. She stared at him. They just stared, for a moment there was no worries, no nothing. Only them.
A single thought crossed both their minds.
'Why is he/she staring at me?'
Both of them didn't have the answers.
Kagome broke off the stare, she glanced back to the kids. She could sense Sol didn't. He was still staring, she felt awkward. But what could she do? Tell him not to stare? Too.....out of place..... in the mountain..... just way too out of place.....
Finally Inuyasha let out a sigh.
Everyone tensed and looked ready for a command or something.
Inuyasha rolled to his sides. A thing he has never done since he has entered the mountain.
"A.....while....." Sol announced out of the blues.
Everyone stared at him. They understood slowly, they were safe.....for a while.....
But the thing was.....
How long was a while?
They didn't know..... time didn't wait.....but it didn't........go either.....
"A while....." Kaoru breathed.
Shippo and Kaoru curled to Kagome's sleeping bag and relaxed a bit.
'A while.....' Kagome thought worriedly.
They relaxed all they can. For the..... time..... that they could was not.....long........short?!
Frustration overtook the group. But no one said anything.
"A while." Inuyasha grunted. And that was a final sort of way to stop all thoughts.
Everyone sighed and thought one last time
'A while.'
