Chapter Four: Main Rule
It had been a day a full week since the incident at the beach. Kagome had found a job at a café and was working as a waitress; unfortunately it only paid 300 a weak. Kagome didn't eat much, but money was running out fast. So today at night she had a single and simple plan; to go back into the ocean and gather up her other belongs from her secret cave.
"Order up!" the cook sang out from behind the wall. Kagome picking up the plate of chips and onion rings and a glass of coke she headed over to table nine. "Hears your order..." Kagome would have said sir or mama but Kagome was not sure wither it was a man or a woman. She place the plate a little above the down turned head and then the glass on the costar beside it. "Aren't you spouse to be polite?" a cold voice asked from the person. "Huh?!" Kagome asked before she was about to turn. "Your manners need a touch up," the head turned up to reveal a familiar looking pair of emotionless brown eyes. 'Sesshomaru,' Kagome growled to herself. "Well sorry sir," Kagome said, meaning for her voice to give her not knowing whither he though him of a girl. Sesshomaru's eyes blazed with anger.
Kagome turned on her heals as her watch beeped, "sorry sir but i'm off duty now." She started to untie her apron and praticly bolted too the kitchen.
"What an arrogant jerk!" Kagome growled as she hobbled over some rocks. Salt water sprayed her face, taking a quick glance around; 'no one around; well looking,' Kagome confirmed to herself and then dived into the crashing water. It was medium deep and there was little current the high tide had come in already.
Kagome sunk to the sandy-ish bottom and looked down; her vision clear and perfect if not better; breathing was fine too, scales already forming on her legs. Her clothes began to melt away into what seamed to be nothing. Kagome's boob-tube was marooned-red colure with about a inch of seamy clear material falling off the bottom of it. Kagome felt the marking fading into her skin. Finally her tail beat marking up the pale sand she speed off into open water; keeping to the ocean floor.
A radar on a dash board of something above the water. BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! Curious eyes looked at the radar and then a something on the wall above. A photograph of someone in the water, ebony hair swirling around the figure. A small infant cradled in her arms, a ratty old blanked rapped around the majority of the infant's body. A purple-blue tail was what intrigued the blue eyes of the mysterious someone; the tail poked out of the blanket and in the clear water you could see the exact same color blurring under the woman's figure. "Looks like you've came back," the person cooed and looked back at the radar, a green dot slowly blinking off the radar. Evil smiles creep across the face.
Kagome slowed down and looked around. Not a mer-person in sight. 'Tally!' Kagome sent a telepathic massage to her clown-fish friend. "Kagome?" A small voice said from behind a coral rock,
"Tally is that you?" Kagome asked aloud.
"Kagome what are you doing hear?" she asked sharply,
"Getting my stuff," Kagome replied meekly; slightly hurt at her best friend behavior towards her return. Kagome continued to swim slowly towards the cave hollow, "How long do I have too stay above land?" Kagome mooned. "I'm not quite sure, they've sent a search party to look for you, so be wary above land," Tally said.
"Grate, now I have two problems," Kagome glowered,
"HUH?" Tally asked,
"There a land-person well he's a demon,"
"Demon?" Tally said, "But there only a myth."
"No. well when I met him I could sense his demon aura. It was powerful I mean really really strong; id hate to meet his father. Sesshomaru's evil well at least his hart is a yelcaie!"
"An iceberg!?" Tally asked to make sure, Kagome nodded her head.
Squishing into and pass a small crevasse, they entered the hollow of a coral rock. The cavern was not small but not big eathier. It was about one meater exessec before Kagome would have bumpped her head on the top; whitch was smooth. "Kagome i don't want you too come back after this," Tally said sadlly, "It's just to dangourose. The palace wants you and thats risky!"
"So apparently i'm a thife!" Kagome said anger hinting in her voice, but she then laughed sadly, "Well i am but i only stole cause' my pearants abondedned me when i was five years old! And then when i was seven my grandmah disapereared!" her voice was now rising again.
"Kagome! But that dosen't mean you have to turn yous-self in!" Tally squled. "Who said i was!" Kagome snapped.
"But that what your doing every time to swim close to Alantica!"
"It's--- it's," Kagome then sobbed and sunk down to the sandy botom of the coral-cave, and sobbed. "Oh dear Kagome when was the last time you cried?" Tally asked as she whatched the sparkling coulful glising glowing speaks hover around her friend, "It--it was a long time ago. every thing just so complcated now!" Kagome wailed.
"Kagome there's something i need to tell you," Tally whispered, "It what my mother said too me a long time, just before i met you. She said that a litlle while back a mer-person was put in jail cause' they where see out see by a fishermen. Above land they thougt the man was a madman but that mer-erson died in jail for urupting the enturnal blance that was sopse to be for entrity."
"Wait a sec, what was the land-person's name?" Kagome asked,
"We don't know. But shortaly after that the mother of the seen mer-person disapeared!" Tally said, "And there was a reumor that she went a-land!"
Kagome nodded picked up the reast of her jewls and her most prised posetion her mothers neacklace that was given to her befor her perants disapered.
"Kagome before you go. You MUST rember not too be seen! If you are you may as well be dead!!" Kagome waved good by and swam back to the place she frist meet the gang! Over thinking what happened and who was the mer-person who was seen and the land-person who saw the mer-person. But what Kagome knew was that the rule she had too follow; NOT TO BE SEEN
