Chapter 3 The Dawning

Beep, Beep, Beep

"Ok, OK, I'm up." Kagome shouted at her alarm. "Why am I so tired?" She looked over at her closet. "Oh, yeah." Kagome got out of bed and started looking for her uniform.

'Was it all a dream?' She headed for the closet. 'Wait! The light might kill him, he is a vampire. Well, a little peek won't hurt.' She thought, she reached for the doorknob when all of a sudden.

"Good morning, Kagome, I'm so glad you're up." Said her mother happily as she walked in her room. "Why do you look so tired and why aren't you ready for school?"

"I can't find my uniform," She said not wanting to lie to her mother.

"Well it's probably in the closet" Her mother said and started to open the door.

"NO!" Kagome dived in front of the closet door blocking her mother. "It's probably in the laundry room. Why don't you look there and I'll look in here."

Her mother looked at her for a moment. "OK, if you insist. I'll be back in a few minutes."

"Thanks!" She watched her mother leave before starting her search for her uniform. "Good thing I bought two of these things," She said as she went down to breakfast.

"Oh good you found it, where was it?" asked her mom.

"In the closet"

"See, you have to learn to listen to me. I am your mother"

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Yes, mom. How was your party last night?" Kagome said, trying to change the subject.

"Oh, it was wonderful! I got to meet Mr. Wolf's son, Kouga. He's such a nice boy, you two should get together sometime. I heard he goes to your school." Said Mrs. Higurashi with a big smile. "It would be lovely to have some grandchildren"

Kagome turned red. "Mother! I can't stand Kouga! He is such a jerk."

'How could she even think that? I would never go out with Kouga let alone marry him. He's not even half the man Inuyasha is. I can't believe I just thought that!' Kagome, if possible turned an even darker shade of red. 'So what if Inuyasha's cute it would never work out, he's a vampire! He probably already has a girlfriend anyway.' Kagome thought as she left for school.

"Goodbye, honey!" Her mother yelled after her.

"Bye!"

In History

'I hate this class.' Kagome thought as she pretended to listen to Kouga talk about himself. It seemed to be his favorite subject. "That's great Kouga"

"Yeah, I know I am," He said with a smile. "So like I was saying, my father said I could have a party, and I want you to come. As my date, of course."

Kagome sighed. "Kouga, I told you I won't go out with you and I don't think my mother will let me-"

Kouga cut her off. "You don't have to worry about your mother. I already asked her and she was more than happy to let you go with me." He winked at her. "I'll pick you up tomorrow at eight."

Kagome was too shocked to talk. 'I...I can't believe her! What I'm I going to do?' Kagome put her head on the desk. 'I guess I'm stuck. How bad can it be?'

The bell rang and everyone left. Kagome slowly walked home thinking of ways her life could get worse. Once she was home, she went straight to her room to do her homework and go to sleep.

Dream

"I have this same dream every night" She was at the cliff again, with the same people, and on the same night as the comet. "I don't know why I keep showing up here. It's not like I can do anything!"

She looked around for what seemed like the hundredth time. "But still, it seems so real. Ahhh! This dream is starting to get to me," She screamed starting to get annoyed.

"Wench, wake up!"

"Great now I'm hearing voices"

Inuyasha was getting mad. He had been trying to wake Kagome up for the past ten minutes and it wasn't working. "Get UP!" He yelled as he started to shake her.

"W-W-What's going on? Inuyasha is that you?" She sat up rubbing her eyes. "What is it? What's wrong?"

"Nothing, but I have to ask you something." He said a little hesitant.

"What is it?" She asked, noticing his mood change.

"Where did you get this?" He asked as he held up the picture of the amulet that was in her dream.

"I drew it during math class." She replied, confused.

"No, that's not what I meant. I mean, where did you see this?"

"Ohhh, I dream about it like every night and...WAIT! That's it!" She jumped out of bed to face Inuyasha. "I knew I've seen you before! You're the guy in my dreams!"

"What!?" Inuyasha said a little surprised. 'She dreams about me?'

"Not those kind of dreams, you pervert!"

"Then what kind of dreams are you talking about and what does it have to do with the amulet?"

"OK, well it all started when I first moved in..." Kagome told him the whole story and Inuyasha listened with interest. He seemed to want to know a lot about the amulet. "...And that's all there is to it. So why did you want to know anyway?"

"I have to go." Inuyasha got up to leave.

"Wait, you can't just leave! Why did you wake me up? I know you didn't do it to hear my life story, so spill!" She looked at him.

"I really have to go and ask someone about something" He was just about to jump out the window when Kagome spoke up.

"Will you come back?"

He looked her dead it the eye. "Yeah, I'll be back" He smiled and jumped. 'I will come back. I have to ask her more about the amulet. I mean, why else would I come back? To see her again, you idiot.' Said a voice in the back of his head. 'No its only for the amulet. Grrrr, Sango better know something.'

Inuyasha finally reached the cemetery where the other vampires and he lived. He entered the catacombs through what looked like a well, but was really a secret tunnel leading to their hiding place. Little did he know he was being watched the whole time.

"Oi! Inuyasha it's about time you showed up. Where were you all day? Kikyo was worried sick and she kept asking me questions. It was so annoying!" Yelled Miroku

"Miroku keep your shirt on will yeah!" said Inuyasha. "Where's Sango? I need to ask her something."

"How should I know? Once she heard you were gone she left me with Kikyo mumbling something about being left alone with a pervert."

"I wonder what made her say that," Said Inuyasha dryly.

"Inuyasha! Your home" Screamed a girl who closely resembled Kagome. "I knew you missed me! Come here and give your baby a hug" she then ran to Inuyasha with open arms.

Inuyasha stopped her before she got to close. "Kikyo I told you, you're not my baby. Now leave me alone, I have to go and talk to Sango."

After about a half hour of looking for her Inuyasha finally found Sango hiding deep within the catacombs. "Here you are I've been looking all over for you!" He yelled. "What are you doing all the way in here anyway?"

"Hiding from Miroku." She calmly replied.

"He's not that bad is he, I mean I was only gone a day. What's the worse that could happen?"

"Easy for you to say, he hasn't been groping you for the past five hundred years."

"Yeah, and that's a good thing."

"What do you want anyway? And why were you gone so long?" She asked.

"I was at this mortals house."

"God you've been hanging around Miroku to much." She said as she walked by him to return to her room.

"No, that's not what I meant! I had a run in with a vampire hunter and I needed a place to stay." He stepped in front of her to stop her from leaving. "Listen, I have to talk to you about the amulet of Attamon"

"The amulet? Don't be silly Inuyasha that amulet has been lost for three hundred years."

"I know, but what can you tell me about it?" He asked looking very serious.

Sango noticed this and decided to play along. "OK, the Amulet of Attamon was a piece of the Attamon Comet, you know the comet that's coming in three nights. Anyway, a powerful Miko transferred all her power into the stone and made it into an equally powerful amulet. It is said that when aligned with the comet it came from will grant the holder any wish they desire. Well, you know what happened three hundred years ago so I'll spare myself the trouble of telling you." This time Sango pushed Inuyasha out of the way and left the room, only to bump into Kikyo.

"Kikyo, what are you doing? Were you spying on Sango and me?" Asked Inuyasha, also coming out of the room.

"No baby, I was just taking a walk." She said with a smile.

"I told you I'm not your baby"

"No you said I wasn't your baby, that doesn't mean you're not mine." She wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Should I leave you two alone" Said Sango

"No, I was just leaving" He said pulling away from Kikyo's grasp. "I'm going to bed the sun will be rising soon."

A/N— Wow only 5 pages! I'm so disappointed in myself. sigh Well, it could be worse, evil pink bunnies could take over the world. HA! Like that would happen. (Door brakes down and a group of pink bunnies surround the computer and TeenWitch) Then again I could be wrong...
