Koei: Unfortunately for you, I'm alive! Who's I'm? Could it be… the milkman? Hell no, it's the author! Sorry I've been gone, and in the freak' in summer too, but I'm stranded in China till August. And now I've deleted two of my stories, so don't mind the authors note. Just so you know, the girl's Kagome.

AnimeholicsInc – Nope, she's not related to any of them.

animegurl5 – I thought you didn't like Hiei/Kag pairings, oh, and could you be my beta-reader? I usually skim past mistakes when I read fics over myself.

darklight4ever – Err… could I just make Kagome ooc? I don't like her either but I don't think I could make a fanfic of her with all bashings, because I'm not really good at bashing, but I guess I can try putting some bashing or whatever in.

Disclaimer – Me don't own Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho.

Black Blood Rose: Existence


Darkness, that's the first thing she saw, the inky blackness seemed to grasp at her, tugging her down into its depths. Despite the darkness, the girl did not seem scared, dull eyes staring blankly into it.

'I'm useless. Just like he said.' Her thoughts found a way out, echoing throughout the darkness, her voice in tune with the setting around her. Blank.

'Why do I exist? Why am I still alive? Is it because… of my family?' Silence floated through the air.

'No. They seem to live happily without me, even though I was always… there.' Her bitterness seemed to intertwine with the darkness, colors flaring out. At once she knew where she was. In her heart.

OoOoOoOoOoO

Hiei had ditched him earlier, leaving the kitsune in charge of the unconscious girl, though he could tell the ruby-eyed demon was curious, especially after her surprising question. Shifting slightly, he thanked his luck that his mother was not around, she was off visiting an old friend at some place called the Higurashi shrine, he sighed and turned his attention back to the girl. This girl was strange, to say the least.

Her aura was one thing, she didn't seem to have any abnormal energy, but yet she didn't seem to contain an aura at all. This was perplexing, because even though most humans don't contain high amounts of spirit energy, they at least had life energy. Her energy seemed to have no life energy, which lead to two conclusions, either that she was dead, or that a natural barrier was surrounding her. This girl was puzzling, but he loved puzzles.

OoOoOoOoOoO

She felt as if she was floating, happy emotions entered her mind, she felt content, no pain entering her heart.

'I don't want to wake up… If this keeps the pain away.' Her voice drifted out, followed by more colors, pulled out by her emotions.

'Why should I wake up? No one would mind if I didn't.' She smiled contently at her plan.

"Please wake up." A cheerful voice floated down. Brown orbs opened slightly, clouded as if waking up from a dream. Her feet floated down, touching an invisible floor.

'Who are you? Why are you in my heart?' Her thoughts questioned, her mouth did not seem to want to move. If she was not half conscious, she would have been shocked to see a younger image of herself appear in front of her, the young girl had the same clothing, though cleaner, the same raven-black hair cascaded to her mid back, but the strange thing was that her eyes were dark sapphire, dusted with from reds to black, to yellows to greens.

"I'm a part of your emotions, please wake up. You still have to complete your task!" Giving a toothy grin, the young girl gave a thumbs up. "But if you don't, whatever you do, don't follow the light at the end of the tunnel!" She blinked, tilting her head at the young girl's statement before her random joke, trying to think of what she was talking about.

'I remember… but how am I supposed to collect the shards, if he won't let me keep the shards.' She questioned in confusion.

"You just have to wait. For now, just please wake up." It was a request, nothing more, but something made her want to. Nodding in agreement, her eyelids started to feel heavy, before they closed, the last thing she saw was the young girls happy grin as she waved.

OoOoOoOoOoO

Kurama glanced at the waking girl in surprise, the gash on her back had been deep, so she should not have been up for a while. Just another puzzling factor to add to her list. He stood still, waiting for the girl to wake completely. After a few moments to gather her bearings, she glanced around the room quickly, but instead of sensing fear radiate from her, he saw that she was instead confused of where she was before focusing on him. Glancing at Kurama she tilted her head in thought.

"Who are you?" She queried. The kitsune smiled politely before answering.

"I am Minamoto, Shuiichi (sp?), pleasure to meet you miss…" He waited for a reply. The girl hesitated slightly, before trying to smile only to give a grimace.

"I'm Higurashi, Kagome."
