INTO THE MADHOUSE
Chapter 4: Dangerous Doubts
MCS: "I am so angry! My power of the pen meeting was canceled! I was supposed to find out if I go on to the next competition. Now my weekend is doomed."
It wasn't exactly InuYasha. It was him in his human form. He smiled a weary smile at her. "Hello Kagome. How are you?"
"I'm in a mental institution how do you think I'm feeling?" she said. He laughed. Kagome felt herself drawn in by his laugh. It had been so long since she had heard him laugh. Naraku walked over to her.
"Kagome, this is the real InuYasha. He was a patient here when you first came in for therapy. You two fell in love on that day. After that you couldn't stop rambling on about the half demon. The key word in there was half. InuYasha has a rare case of multiple personality disorder. He has two personalities, a normal one and the aggressive one. He told me in one of our sessions that he feels like half of a person, and that he's struggling to become whole. The only reason he kept his condition was because of you. In one of your adventures. You called it "The Castle Beyond The Looking Glass," he said that he'd get better just for you. Then he kissed you, that was when he was released. He occasionally reappeared, for sessions."
"Don't worry Kagome. Just get better," then he leaned in and kissed her. She kissed him back. Oh how lovely! It had been so long since she had seen his face. So long since she had felt his skin. She missed him. "I have to go."
"Go? No!" yelled Kagome jumping up. "You can't leave me all alone!" She felt like crying. He couldn't leave her all alone!
"It's okay," he said. "I'll be back tomorrow, I love you," he kissed her again. Then he walked away.
"You see Kagome," said Naraku smiling. "We all just want to help you. You can go back to your room now," there was still that evil glint in his eye that made her nervous. Shew walked back to her room, as soon as she closed the door it was locked. She sighed and glanced at her prison. She sat on the bed, and cried. She cried and cried, she wanted to get out of this place. She wanted to not have to worry about medication, she wanted...InuYasha. She wanted to hold him in her arms again. She thought about all of her adventures, then she got an insane look in her eye.
"They're not real. None of them are. All of those adventures never existed. I am crazy, InuYasha still loves me though. I know what I have to do to get better," then Kagome walked over to the door. "I need to see the doctor again," those were dangerous doubts. Doubts that could destroy everything. What is reality? I believe we accept the reality that we perceive. We never stop to question it. Maybe the world that we're in right at this very moment isn't real.
MCS: "Short chappie I know! Sorry! The next one will be longer!"
