I'm gonna give another chapter a try. I'm kinda depressed right now, so I apologize if it doesn't come out right.
---Chapter 6: Asking for a Hero---
((((((((((((((((((((((((TT))))))))))))))))))))))))
Kagome hit the floor with a thud and her hair fell into her face, hiding her eyes. Naraku had thrown her into a smaller room, until a 'more convient time' approached them. She sat upright, leaning her back against the door. She willed herself not to cry, telling herself only weak people cry. What confused her most was the fact Naraku hadn't attempted to take the jewel yet.
(--Its down the this,
I've got to make this life make sense,
Can anyone tell what I've done?--)
She stared at the round glowing orb for awhile, hoping it would make her feel better like it used to do.
((((((((((((((((((((((((TT))))))))))))))))))))))))
Inuyasha wanted to go back and tell the others about Kagome, but he wasn't sure if he had the time. Instead, he took off in the direction of her scent, praying Naraku hadn't laid a hand on her.
(--I miss the life,
I miss the colors of the world,
Can anyone tell where I am?--)
After thinking that, he started arguing with himself over only being concerned over the jewel, or the fact he actually hoped Kagome was safe. The scent was fading, since it was getting dark and she'd been gone for awhile now. This only caused Iunyasha to bolt fasted around the trees and through bushes.
((((((((((((((((((((((((TT))))))))))))))))))))))))
"Miko, I see you're still awake." His red eyes peered into the room, Kagome had now moved to the opposite wall of the door, staring at the floor quietly.
He walked in and knelt in front of her, "Miko"
She felt her head being forced up by unknown powers, and figured he was using more of his tricks to make her look up at him. She glared, "What do you want?"
"Aren't we fiesty?" He smirked, and she shifted uncomfortably under his gaze. He leaned forward, a hand on her chin. She closed her eyes, and the jewel around her neck glowed light purple, forcing him to back up.
She opened her eyes, the glow never getting weaker. This seemed to only amuse him further, "I see. You are making a barrier with the power of the jewel and your miko powers. Clever. But not clever enough. When I return, I will take that jewel from you, and use it myself." With that, left the room, closing the door and only light source, behind him.
(--'Cause now and again I've found myself so far down,
Away from the sun,
That shines into the darkest place,
I'm so far down,
Away from the sun again.--)
Kagome pulled her knees to her chest, resting her chin on them, as the glow slowly faded, leaving her in a pitch black room.
(--I'm over this,
I'm tired of living in the dark,
Can anyone see me down here?--)
She fidgeted, getting cold. She hid her hands in her sleeves, and fixed the pants part of her miko outfit to go over her cold feet. She then closed her eyes, and prayed for someone to come to her rescue. Yet, she found herself wishing Inuyasha was the one who did it, though it confused her as to why.
(--The feelings gone,
There's nothing to lift me up,
Back into the world I know.--)
((((((((((((((((((((((((TT))))))))))))))))))))))))
(--Now and again I've found myself so far down,
Away from the sun,
That shines into the darkest place,
I'm so far down,
Away from the sun,
That shines the life away from me,
To find my way, back into the arms again.
About the ones like me,
I'm so far down,
Away from the sun again.--)
He saw a large building in the distance. That had to be the place.
(--It's down to this,
I've got to make this life make sense,
But now I can't tell what I've done.
And now and again I've found myself so far down,
Away from the sun,
That shines the life away from me.--)
As he got closer, he pulled out his sword and it got larger, looking like the fang it was.
(--'Cause now and again I've found myself so far down,
Away from the sun,
That shines into the darkest place,
I'm so far down,
Away from the sun,
That shines the life away from me,
To find my way, back into the arms again.
About the ones like me,
I'm so far down,
Away from the sun again.--)
(--I'm gone...--)
((((((((((((((((((((((((((((TT)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Yea...okay, that's all I could come up with. I'm sorry I'm making you all wait for such a short chapter, I don't mean to...I just have alot on my plate and have to do things a little at a time. I'll try to do more next weekend. Gomen again.
Oh, and just to have it cleared up. This song isn't originally mine. It's 3 Doors Down - Away From The Sun. Like I said, I'm trying to make sure I put the credits at the end of my chapters. If ever I don't say anything, remind me about it in a review or something, and I'll be sure to fix it. Now, to go wallow in my self-pity of being alone for my whole life.
