The Curse and the Cursed
Katona's eyes ripped open; the sun was directly above her, it was probably late morning. Katona slowly got up and walked towards the forest. She decided that she just wanted to hang around and look at all the scenery. Katona started to hum but then, she started to sing……. She was singing a song she had recently heard on the radio, that she had liked.
I didn't mean it
When I said I didn't love you, so
I should have held on tight
I never shoulda let you go
I didn't know nothing
I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I could not fathom that I would ever
Be without your love
Never imagined I'd be
Sitting here beside myself
Cause I didn't know you
Cause I didn't know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt
The feeling that I'm feeling
Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
Cause I don't have a choice
Oh, what I wouldn't give
To have you lying by my side
Right here, cause baby
(We belong together)
chorus
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together
Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together
I can't sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Saying to me
"If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute
This is too deep (too deep)
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial
Trying to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
"I only think of you"
And it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together
But I'm falling apart
I'm feeling all out of my element
I'm throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out
Where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
It ain't even half of what
I'm feeling inside
I need you
Need you back in my life, baby
chorus
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together
Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together, baby
chorus
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together
Who am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong together
Katona sang the entire song as she walked in the forest, she hadn't even noticed that Inuyasha had been watching her the whole time. Katona then saw a good tree to climb up; so she did and perched herself on a large branch. She had just remembered the name of the song it was We Belong Together. Katona now looked at the darkened sky, It was a crescent moon! Katona had to hurry……… But, it was to late a red light came around and pulled her in the air. The light made a barrier around her, and after a minute or so it stopped. The curse had happened, but, to Katona not Inuyasha. Inuyasha had watched the entire thing but he had no clue what had just happened, he never knew Katona had a curse……… "What happened to her while this curse was in motion," Inuyasha thought? He didn't know now, but he was about to find out.
Katona's scent had disappeared and replaced with a new one. To Inuyasha the new scent was familiar so very familiar...
As Inuyasha finally got there he found only one thing not Katona but; Kagome! Inuyasha looked down at Katona's no Kagome's body. Well this is Katona's curse; Kagome would take over her body the nights of the crescent moon. Kagome slowly got up as she looked right into Inuyasha's eyes; they stayed that way for a few moments until Miroku broke their silence. "Oh good your both ok" Miroku said happily. Miroku walked over to them, "it's nice to know you're ok Kagome" Miroku said. Miroku's eyes became very wide, "Kagome what are you doing here; where's Katona," Miroku said with shock all over his face? 'You know what; never mind, I just need to get some sleep," Miroku said drifting off as he left. Kagome slid away and headed towards Kaede's Village. By the time Inuyasha got back Kagome had started a fire and was sitting by it. Inuyasha was in complete shock he couldn't say a thing. "Inuyasha its over isn't it," Kagome asked solemnly? "what do you mean," Inuyasha replied? "I mean have you moved on; forgotten about me," Kagome whispered? "The truth is that what you want," Inuyasha asked? "Yes, I do," Kagome replied. "I don't wanna mess up again, I don't want to do to Katona what I did to you," Inuyasha said quietly. "Oh," Kagome sighed. She decided not to talk about it anymore.
