" " Talking
'' Thoughts
I woke up with a jump and sat up straight. The blood started rushing from my head and I had to lean on my hand to steady my self. I was breathing heavily and covered in a cold sweat. Sango was cooking something in the fire and Shippo was lying next to me staring into the flame.
"You're awake." Sango said sweetly as she looked over at me. At Sango's words Shippo turned around toward me.
"Are you okay?" Shippo asked, "You're shaking."
"I'm fine," I gasped between breathes, "I just had a bad dream."
"Are ye feeling better child?" Lady Kiade asked as she walked in the hut holding some herbs.
"Ya, I think so." I said leaning against the wall.
"What happened." Shippo demanded, "Why did you faint?"
"I'm not exactly sure." I said as I took a deep breath, "I remember the demon vanishing and that shadow appearing and coming toward me, then everything went black for a while. Then I had a dream and my dog was being chased by a huge shadow and a monster. It seemed so real but I couldn't help Lupin. Like I was a ghost. Then I woke up and well that's it." Everyone stared at me when I finished. Silent. Thinking.
"What shadow?" Shippo asked after a while, "I don't remember a shadow."
"I don't remember a shadow either." Sango added.
'How come no one remembers it?' I wondered.
"Are ye sure ye saw a shadow? It wasn't a dream?" Lady Kiade asked.
"Yes! I'm sure I saw it. I mean there was a shadow in my dream, and a demon, but I'm positive I saw it before I blacked out. Right after the monster vanished." I replied willing them to understanding, to remember. Every stared at me puzzled looks on there faces. I stared at them in desperation and question.
"Can ye tell me about the demon and shadow in your dream?" Kiade asked after a long silence.
'What a weird question.' I thought.
"Well, the demon was all black and looked human except with no nose or ears. He had long fingers with longer claws. He had blood red eyes and long, sharp, fang like teeth. It was almost like the demon we saw today except as big as the trees. Also it had something shiny in its arm. Like 3 little lights. The demon would vanish and a huge shapeless shadow would appear even though there was little light in the trees. The demon, shadow, thing was chasing my dog through the woods." I rambled. When I got to the part with the shiny things in his arm every one's eyes got wide and now they stared at me in shock.
"What?" I said confused.
"Ye say ye saw something shiny in the demons arm. Did it look like gems?" Kiade asked.
"Yes." I replied.
"Did ye see any in the demon earlier?" She asked
"Yes, two in his left shoulder." I replied still confused.
"You can see the jewel shards!" Shippo said excitedly.
"Ya I guess. Why? Can't you see them?" I asked
"No. Only ye and Kagome can see them." Kiade explained.
"What do you mean. Why can't you see them?" I asked puzzled.
"We don't know, but only you two can see them." Sango explained.
I sat there in silence for awhile then decide silently I wanted to walk, so I stood up and walked out the hut without a word.
"Akita, where you going?" Shippo asked, but I didn't answer.
Inuyasha and Miroku were sitting in front of the hut. I walked by them silently as they stared at me questioningly. I just walked by ignoring them. When I got to the edge of the village I began to run. I heard a voice yell my name from in the village but I just kept running. I ran along the river until I was far enough from the village I couldn't hear anyone yelling anymore. There was a tree along the bank and I sat under it in silence, thinking about everything that happened.
'I've got to go find Lupin and go home.' I decided silently. The sun was setting as I walked and when I reached the village it was dark. I didn't see anyone but I heard voices coming from Kiade's hut. I didn't bother to look for anyone, I just walked past the village and into the forest. It was dark and I could barley see but the moon provided enough light for me to see where I was going.
"Lupin!" I called quietly as I wondered through the forest. I was wandering for a long time when I saw him. He was in a clearing cocking his head I a confused puppy way.
"Lupin." I called happily as I ran toward him. He wagged his tail in delight when he saw me. As I reached him and began petting him I was grabbed from behind
"Ahhh!" I yelled as my feet and legs were tied and a hand covered my mouth to silence me.
"Quiet wench" A low male voice, my captor, whispered into my ear.
