The Crystal Wish
Chapter 4
By Inu Esca Fanatic
Inuyasha was walking back to the village, thinking about what he was going to do. Suddenly he was smashed into a nearby tree. "What did you do to my woman, Mutt Face?" he heard someone say gruffly as he was punched in the solar plexus hard.
"What do you mean your woman, wolf?" Inuyasha asked angrily as he blocked the next attack.
"I mean," Koga stated, "what did you do to my woman, Dog Turd? She smells like death is upon her. If I find you have done anything to her I will personally gut you alive!"
Inuyasha thought for a moment, 'Well, getting gutted alive is a lot better than losing Kagome.' "Hey, Wolf! How about you stop attacking me so I can tell you what happened?"
"Fine, what is it, Mutt?" Koga said as he stopped trying to kill Inuyasha.
Inuyasha then complied by relating to Koga most of the conversations he had had with Myoga and Kagome – minus all the sweet talking and kissing he had shared with Kagome.
After school the next day, Kagome, Ayumi, Yuka, and Eri all went to McDonald's to celebrate the end of the last test of the year.
They were talking about how they wanted to fall in love, when Eri said, in a bubbly voice, "I once heard of this legend from the Sengoku Jidai about this prince who fell in love with a princess from the future. They had to battle a powerful demon so they could be together, but she got sick and died. He went to wake her up one morning to find her dead. He took her body back to the future and told her family not to bury her and that he would be back later that evening."
Ayumi gasped, "Oh, that's so sad. What happened next?"
"Well, he returned that evening with a jewel and made a wish for her life back…at any cost, but the any cost was that he had to give a part of his soul to her, so she wouldn't be sick anymore."
Now it was Yuka's turn to gasp, "That's so romantic."
"I know, then he was forced back to his time. It's said that he never aged from that moment on, and that he is still waiting for her."
Kagome had stayed quiet through the entire story, thinking about it, 'It is just like the story of Inuyasha and I, except we are a prince and princess instead of a hanyou and miko, and I don't how our story ends past my death.'
That evening, Kagome and her mother were sitting in the living room talking about what was going to happen.
"Actually, a lot differently than I thought he would," Kagome said as she thought back that particular night, "He was, oddly enough, very affectionate. Well, at least up until Shippo came paddling over."
"Oh, that is different than he normally acts. What else happened?"
Kagome began retelling the entire story. When she was finished her mother asked her if there was anything at all that she wanted.
Kagome thought hard for a few moments before she replied, "I can't think of anything right now. Mind if I take a walk, maybe I can think of something?"
Her mother smiled sweetly, "Of course not, I'll be waiting for you."
Kagome nodded and began to walk outside, as he mother began to make dinner. While Kagome was walking and looking at the scenery of the shrine, 'It always calms me.' She realized that she just wanted to be with her friends. She turned around and started to walk back to the house when she saw the well house and stopped to think.
If it wasn't for the Bone Eater's well I would never have known Shippo, Sango, Kirara, and Miroku. I would never have known Inuyasha. I don't think I could survive without him. I just want to be with him.' With that Kagome ran back to the house to tell her mother what she really wanted.
AN- Sorry it took me so long,but I didn't know how to put the legend in there. Please R&R.
