Chapter Fourteen
It was dark. That was the first thing Kagome noticed. A fire in the distance caught her attention as she slowly approached it. Where am I? She thought. It seemed like hours before she finally reached the flame. It was blue and purple, abnormal colors for fire. Kagome gulped and picked up the little bowl it was floating over. The flame followed the bowl, much to Kagome's relief. It lit up the hall before her and to her horror; she had been here before. Her breath caught in her throat as she froze in her spot. I thought I was safe in the Forest of Elements! She thought to herself. How did I end up back here? Her thoughts were interrupted by footsteps. She ducked under the table and covered the flame with a lid she had gotten off the table. She watched the dark hallway from her hiding spot and saw a man stop in the middle, for she could just barely make out the outline. "Why are you hiding?" His voice was calm and charming. He continued down the hall and Kagome breathed a sigh of relief. She was just about to uncover the flame when a hand grabbed her by the collar and yanked her out from under table. Kagome tried to scream but a hand covered her mouth. The flame's container fell to the ground with a crash, as the flame was uncovered. Kagome stared into deep purple eyes that were so deep; they would first be mistaken for black. All time seemed to stop as she stared at him. He had black hair, tied back into a ponytail, which went down to about between his shoulders. He was dressed in all midnight blue. He gazed down at her with a serious expression. He slowly uncovered her mouth but kept his tight grip on her shirt collar. "How? How is it that you can get in here?" Kagome didn't answer, just stared at him. Where's Himuri? She thought. "Himuri isn't worried. I'm not my brother." Kagome gasped. So this was the brother of the so-called evil Immortal who took over the castle. "W- who are you?" She asked. "I am Lex." Kagome nodded. "My name is Kagome." Lex released her suddenly. "The Hybrid? You better leave this place before my brother finds you here." Kagome looked at him confused. He grabbed her hand and the castle melted away to reveal the Forest of Elements. Himuri walked up gracefully and hugged Kagome. "There you are. Why did you go back?" Kagome hugged her back. "I don't know. I thought I would come here but for some reason, I ended up in the castle." Himuri looked at her worriedly. "Can you be that strong already?" Kagome shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know." Himuri smiled suddenly. "It's time for you to go back, wait for-"
"KAGOME!" Kagome shot awake at the sound of her name being yelled. She looked up at all her friends. "Oh good. For a while, you were acting like you were having a nightmare." Kagura said. Kagome smiled. "Sorry about that. I didn't wake up in the right spot on the other side." Kagura looked at her curiously. "Other side?" Kagome nodded. "I didn't wake up in the forest, I woke up in castle." Kagura was going to question her but Kada stopped her. "What's good is that you are awake. You reopened your stomach wound, so you'll be down even longer." Kagome groaned and almost smacked herself but chose not to. Miroku smiled down at her, for once not being perverted. "You'll be back on your feet soon enough. Until then, we'll continue looking for shards. Once you are better, we'll come back and get you." Kagome looked at him, shocked. "But-" Miroku shook his head. "We've already decided. We'll be leaving soon so we wanted to say goodbye." Kagome gazed down at her feet. "We need you at good health Kagome, so stay put. And don't get into anymore fights!" Sango said sternly. "Fine." Kagome muttered. She was hugged and wished several farewells until the room stood empty. Kagome sighed and fell back against the mattress. Looks like I stuck here.alone! She thought. Her door opening surprised her. She propped herself up on her elbows to see who it was. In fact, it was two people. Nina and Sesshoumaru. Kagome nodded her head in respect and let herself drop back onto the mattress. The two came to stand on either side of her bed. "What do I owe for this respectful visit?" Sesshoumaru growled but Nina chuckled. "Nothing and Sess! Don't be like that!" Sesshoumaru quit his growling and stared at a painting on the wall. Kagome smiled at Nina for the save. "We just wanted to see how you are." Kagome's smiled widened. "I'm fine. I am not in any pain." Nina nodded. "That's good. Care to see if you can walk?" Sesshoumaru looked over at them then turned his attention elsewhere. "Is it okay?" Nina nodded again. "You are an Immortal, so you heal rather quickly. You should be able to walk, but not fight." Kagome was thankful for that much as Nina helped her slowly out of the bed. She wobbled on her feet and started to fall do to lack of using them but she was caught. She looked up at Sesshoumaru as he helped her get her balance. "Good." Nina said as she came up to their side. "Then let us go."
