Welps-this one is beginning with another dream sequence.Gradually I will start to put a softer side to Kagome-so watch as she lightens up around Inu! Finally I will break it up and Inu will get thru-but for now I will leave you with the twists....ENJOY!
Chapter 7
Kagome looked ahead at the endless expanse. It was a dusty desert of darkness, the ground cracked with dry spaces but the air hung heavy and humid with a looming storm. Dark thunder clouds began to roll in low and lighting streaked in the black skies- lighting her path as she walked on to a familiar place she had never been. She was searching for something-but she wasn't sure what, she was calling for someone but she wasn't sure who. She stopped suddenly and looked up-closing her eyes in waiting just as droplets began to pour down, rain came quickly in silver sheets, drenching her hair that now stuck to her face in beautiful strands and her clothes that latched tight to her body.
She smiled-the first true smile she could remember in a long while.She looked ahead of herself-anticipating something until she finally recognized it in the downpour. A voice spoke pleasantly to her-in a soothing tone she seemed to recognize from long ago. "Kagome...look into the waters..." Kagome obediently bent to her knees, looking into the puddles that danced with raindrops. The dark reflection came clearer-like a memory that was suppressed. "I can't see it...what is it..." Suddenly, Kagome touched the surface, watching the ripples stretch out in a never ending cycle, then she found herself in the sun-in the middle of the memory.
She looked around a moment, taking everything in-realizing exactly which memory it was. "This is...the last day...the last day we were all together...the last day we were all happy...." Kagome's breath was shallow, afraid that too much noise might break the fragile world apart. "Hai...I remember it clearly..." Kagome stared out in a saddened reminiscing look. She watched as the figures of herself and her friends came walking past.
Kagome laughed saddly to herself. "I remember...he and I were in a fight...but I don't even remember what it was about...baka..." A familiar smile touched Kagome's lips-reminding her of how happy she was. She saw the day slip by and everyone set up camp, falling asleep and the discussion between the two.
She watched as Inuyasha pulled her into a warm embrace, pulling her closer and promising her that he would never leave her. "You lied...you did leave me, and I died because of it...I'm still dying..." A rush came over Kagome and her sad anger was disintegrated in a fearful uncertainty-she was rushing through time, back to the place where Inuyasha was killed. "NO! I don't wish to relive what has been done!" She turned to run, but was once again caught in the rush of time.
She slipped into a place she recognized clearly. Miroku and Sango were telling her worriedly that she should stay close to the village. "Kagome...listen, you really should stay in today...talk to Kaede or Kouga...please Kagome-Sanog and I can't go with you right now in her condition and we are worried about you-" "I'll be fine...I have some things to take care of...I will be back before dark...please don't worry..." Kagome watched her image fade into the woods and Miroku and Sango into their hut. She followed her figure, even though she already knew were she was leading.
"This is...the day I betrayed everyone...including myself-I lost control...but there is now excuse now...this is the day I truly lost Inuyasha..." Tears burned the back of Kagome's throat as she watched herself enter into a clearing. Sesshomaru's familiar stoic glance loomed ahead of her. "I never meant it...I never wanted this-but what was done is the past..." She listened carefully to herself and Sesshomaru. "Sesshomaru...did you call me out here to demand Tetsusaiga once again? Because my answer is the same-you will only claim the sword when you claim my life as well...." "I did not come to discuss the sword-I came to discuss you..." Kagome stared akwardly at Sesshomaru as he spoke. "You hold Naraku's heart in your possession do you not?" "I do...I see you have talked to Kagura then..." Kagome's imaged pulled out a glass bottle containing a small black jewel that seemed to drip with evil aura.
"Give the heart to me miko" "No...Kagura gathered it for me and I shall do with as I see fit." Sesshomaru saw the fire in her eyes. "I will be back for it...it must not continue to exist...." Sesshomaru disappeared and Kagome's figure stood, waiting. She sought out a demon-a powerful demon and she began to battle it there in the clearing. She took out all her anger on this demon with no thought of anything else. The demon's long pointed claws soon ripped through her skin, putting a large wound on her back of three slash marks.
Kagome cried out in pain as she sprang up from her bed. She awoke from the dream in cold sweat. She gently reached back, touching the three scars on her back and then collapsing her head into her hands in relief that the dreams had ended. "You will never have his heart Sesshomaru..." Kagome looked out the window in silence at the tree. She traced Inuyasha's figure there in annoyance, then noticed the sliver of silver that hung in the sky. 'The moon will be gone tomorrow...he will be human..." Kagome watched his silver locks dance in the summer breeze.
"He does have something over me...He has been back only days and yet I'm changing back to my old self faster and faster all the time..." Kagome smiled weakly before sluggishly resting her head back down to fall asleep.
