Chaptet 8- Painful Memories Within the Sancuary

Inuyasha made his way toward the one place he knew would always be safe, he walked to the one place he knew she'd know and no one else would. She had completed her task and even proved that she could manage in hard situations. Upon arriving in the sancuary Inuyasha set her down as he took out his hidden stash of water and medical supplies. When he approched her to heal her he couldn't help but take some time to look at her and admire her beauty. Her curves were perfect, she was perfect and some how he knew it was true. He knew that this girl, Kagome could be trusted with assignments and so much more. After a couple of moments more he started to wrap her arm up as he did he notice that she was cring ans whimpering yet knew of nothing that would be able to comfor her in such a state of mind. Soon he then moved to her leg wounds and wrapped those up. All the while Kagome was stuck in what felt like an endless nightmare. She was drifting in darkness, no sure as to where was up and where was down. The light in her life had fled and now she sat alone in the dark. 'How?...Why?' she thought as tears began to stream down her face. How was it that she was left within this hell all alone, why was it that her family was taken away and not someone else's. As she walked through the darkness, into it she started to feel numb and started to see all of her old broken dreams appear before her very eyes. Suddenly form out of the darkness came a light, a light covered in silver and amber. It was the most welcoming thing Kagome had ever felt in her life and was more than glad to follow it only of it to diappear.That's when she knwe what the light really was, that's when she knew that the fast approching light was the memories of all the wounderful days she had. Of the days when she was still happy and the days when she still had a family. they would all gather around and talk, sign, hell they even simply sat in silence appreciating oneantohers company. But just as quick and wounderful it all she was tourn out and summoned back into the darkenss, back into the one place she had hopped she would never end up in. She was back, she was back in that day, that time and tragic site where she had lost it all. The skies no longer shined and all there seemed to be was rain filled of sorrow tears and broken dreams.

A young Kagome was walking through the woods looking for the herbs her mother had asked her to find. she had been working on a new postion and was about to test it out when all of a sudden she heard screams coming form her house. The young girl ran for her home in fear that she would miss it, in fear that she wouldn't get there on time to help save her family and she was right. As she ran she felt dread and evbil in the air. She could not feel the sun and felt as if the world was truly hell. As she walked into the doors she could see their blood spread all across the floor and blades spread out before them, soaking in the blood of the very ones they killed. Kagome's eyes widened at the secene before her and faught to hold back the tears that threatened to spill. That night Kagome buried her family and left the city of Japan in search of the men or women who had done this to her family. She left the only place she had ever called a home in search for a new one, and most of all, in seatch of those who had done this to her. Everything then went black again as she saw a new object within the darkness. It was a ball of energy, one covered in a silverglow. Kagome soon found herself walking toward it when she recognized what this energy was. It was the wisdome of dragons she was given and it was begging to be let go, it was begging to be set free in search for its true master, but befoe Kagome could continue with the vision she was awaken by a loud growling sound. Once Inuyasha had seen her differnet colors and felt what else lay benethe her he couldn't help but wake her. He was oh so curious but at the same time simply wantted to let it slide. When she opened her eyes Inuyasha stared at her, watching her every mover only to feel the energy that he was suspicius of reside.

"You okay wrench?" he questioned harshly letting it go. 'She's been through enough already.' thought while making a sour face. 'Since when have I gotten soft?'

"Yea,...where am I?"

"At my hide out. Can you walk?"

"I think so, listen just take the blood you need and go. I'll be fine." she insisted knowing that soon he'd be angery at the fact that she was in fact completly unstable.

"Hell no, there is no way am I getting in trouble because of you. Come on." he said whil carring her and running off. Before long Kagome was home and in bed. As soon as her body hit the bed she felt darkness tring to claim her only to fight it off. She turnned to Inuyasha

"You can take the blood now." she said while pointing to a dwore. In it was all types of blades and daggers.

"Heh, so which one you want?"

"Get the Toutasi-Himstu. It...should do the trick." she said while pausing and fighting the darkness once more. As Inuyasha approched her he smiled mentally.

"You really need to sleep after this you know that?"

"Yea, but at least I know I got the job done."

"The job, hell you took mine." he complained as he slid the dagger down and drew blood. Inuyasha put it in a small vile and before he could wrap the cut up it was gone. 'Strong' he thought once more. As soon Kagome was asleep Inuyasha left for home with the vile of Kagome's blood in hand.
