My memory of the night was interupped by a sudden noise coming from the Bone Eaters well. I watched as a familiar head popped from it, and so I went to it. With a smile I greeted my friend.
"Welcome back Kagome," I said softly as I helped her out of the well, she was struggling with all the bags in her arms. She saw me and smiled as she crawled out of the well and planted her feet to the ground. She had not changed much in the time I've lived here. Her hair did get a bit longer, but for the most part that is all I noticed. As for our relationship it had remained strong, aside from Inuyasha and Sesshomaru fighting each other. They were cival with each other when it came to our friendship...at the beginning. Now it's more of a 'secret' that we meet up and catch up. It's easy for me since Sesshomaru goes on long trips, but for Kagome it was a bit tricker. All in all when we did see each other we would catch up over some tea, but not this time. Kagome set the bags down, most of the items were hers anyways, then she reached down and grabs a smaller bag. There were only a few things I requested from the other side. She reached out and held the bag to me.
"I hope I got what all what you needed." she started, I quickly took the bag and looked inside. I smiled at the chocolate bar and grabbed it up, then took the bag and wrapped it around the already bagged contents.
"I really do appreciate you doing this for me" I sighed with a smile. Kagome watched me hold the chocolate bar and all. She looked back up at me.
"It was no problem but, what do you plan to do if..." she trailed off as I waved my hands around frantically.
"It's really no big deal. I'm sure I am just jumping to conclusions...good thing about technology huh?" I stated slipping the bag into my kimono sleeve for safe keeping. With a sigh she picked up some of her bags again.
"Well I just hope you know I can help anyway I can. No matter what happens" she reassured me. I then went to help carry the bags, we talked as we walked.
"I really appreciate that, I also appreciate the surprise candy bar!" I chuckled a bit. I of course was hiding my nervousness.
"Of course! I figured its been a while since you had one." she said. I shook my head in response.
"Actually, you would not beleive the things Sesshomaru brings me. Just last week he brought me back this red kimono, it was so gorgous!" I raved, "He brought me what I thought was chocolate once. Said it was a special food only nobles ate. I didn't want to say anything to him..." laughing a bit, I walked with Kagome to her home and helped her unload her items.
We must have chatted and laughed for hours, before I knew it the sun was setting. I said my good byes and went with Rin to A-Un.
"Did you have a nice visit with Lady Kagome?" Rin asked after we were in the air. I nodded and then got the chocolate bar, half broken from my snacking earlier and handed it to her.
"I did, thank you for asking. Here, try this." I said letting her have a bit of the chocolate bar. She cautiously took a part of it, slipped it into her mouthand her expression changed to pure happiness.
"Oh, this is delicious. It's like the treat Lord Sesshomaru brought back that one time!" exclaimed. I chuckled a bit.
"Yeah, Kagome brought me some back from home" I explained as I slipped another peice into my mouth before giving the rest to Rin. She gladly took it and bowed to me.
"Thank you" she was always really greatful. My smiled had swollen down a bit seeing how far we were off the ground. I ride A-Un at least once a day, but today felt off. I looked into the woods below us and then began to instruct the beast to land slowly. We were a fair distance from the town Kagome stayed, but I suddenly felt as if I was being watched. As if my senses were warning to hide, I instinctly followed them. Rin just looked around and then to me confused. "Lady Jazmine, what are you-" I shushed her. When we landed I quickly instucted the beast to hide, then Rin followed by me. We stached away into some large bushes and stayed quiet. It must have been my paranoia, but something told me to be wary. It was silent in the woods, and after a few minutes Rin began to get restless. "My Lady, what are we hiding from?" she whispered to me. I was not exactly sure myself, and began to doubt if I was even correct in my assumtion. Right when I was about to rise, I felt a unfamiliar energy. It was strange, something dark and twisted. It had felt so uncomfortable I began to feel a bit sick. I motioned for everyone to stay quiet when I saw a rather handsome man walk into view. He was tall and long black hair from what I could see. I watched as the man began to look around, his face now visable. His skin was very pale, and his eyes as blue as the markings on this face. I was actually blown away by how handsome he was, and what girl wouldn't? He looked very young, but there was some elder prescence about him. I scanned him over and noticed he was wearing armor, like in pictures I have seen in the many years of warriors. He was a warrior, but something far beyond mortal wars. I watched as he looked around slowly, scanning where we were hidden several times before wondering off into the woods. Was he looking for something...or someone? I suddenly concluded that we had rode over war territory and looked back to Rin with worry. How could I have gotten us into this situation. She waited for me to speak, just as scared as a young girl could be. I waited a shile longer before came close to Rin.
"Okay, we might have to walk for now...we might have flied into a war-zone and need to be careful." I spoke with a calmness about me. Rin only nodded and we began to walk carefully with A-Un close. If anything someone would mistake him for a forest animal and just let him be. We had walked for a good 20 minutes or so before I began to feel safe again. With one more glace around, I decided it would be a good time to blow this popsycle stand. "Rin, hop on. We are going to break for it," I whispered as I quickly helped her on. I hopped onto the beast's back and then we were off as quick as could be. It was a long journey, but we finally decided to make camp by a nearby creek. I had tired out A-Un so he needed to rest, all while Rin and I could get rest too. I watched for a while to make sure we were safe. I stayed awake for a good while before I suddenly became overcome with sleep. It was almost unnatural how quickly I fell asleep. Maybe I was just got myself too excited about...whatever that was. As I slipped into sleep, I noticed a small ball rolling next to me, gently letting out a green gas. It was far too late for me by the time I realised what had happened, I fell to the ground being taken out by drowsiness. The last thing I remember was watching as a dark figure hovered over me...
