Kagome, come on child or ye wil be late! I heard Kiade yell from outside my door. I knew I should wake up, but honestly... I didn't want to, or my body at least didn't. If ye are not up and out here in five minutes, I'll beforced to have Toma come and wake ye! This made my body shut up and my mind sing good morning sun shine!
My eyes jerked open and I sat up a little to fast, earning a major head rush. It was about five fifteen in the morning, the sun wasn't even up yet. Kagome..! Kiade sounded annoied, that made me smile. "I'm up, I'm up!" I yelled, throughing back the covers and swinging my feet over the left side of the bed.
I looked out the window tord the garden, the fadding moon beams still played on a few branches. "The gardden", I thought and sighed. " I won't think about that now." I said and walked over to my closet. I almost fell at the outfit that awaited me. Red preistess pants and a white tank top with three inch below the shoulder gloves that cut off right above the wrist.
"Great, village duty!" Ever since my brothers and the other "young" royals disappeared when I was five, all their chores have fallen back on me. It isn't that I dispise going with Kiade EVERY. OTHER. DAY! For village duty, I mean, all we do is walk through the villages to make shur every thing is all right. I was put into training when I was nine so I can use a lot of weapons, but they're never really used much.
Every now and then I guess. By the time I got down staires, Izaoi was waiting by the door smilling, my naginata, bow, and quiver in hand. "Great, they left with out me?" Izaoi just sighed. I grabbed my weapons and threw them up in the air, watching my bow and quiver become a set of bracelets and my naginata a ring. "Be carfull and no fighting with Toma!" Izaoi yelled from the door, waving.
I had took off running for the gate but stopped and turned back smilling. "No promice's!" I yelled back, and then I was gone. I'd caught up to Kiade and Toma about five minutes later. We'd gone from village to village with ease. No attacks, no droughts, no, thank god, births that we were just in time for. I'd helped deliver a baby boy when I was twelve and let's just say, I don't look forward to child birth.
We were on the last stop for today around sunset. Toma and I sat on a fence on the out skirts of the village, while Kiade went around the huts making sure all was well. "So, how you doing? I know you want to get back before sunset." Toma said, looking tord the sky. I sighed. "Black is not your color." Toma fell back with a crash.
"That's random Kagome, even for you!" "Well it's not my fault the truth hurts!" It was true though. In his baggy black pants and tight black and green "muscil" shirt, Toma looked way more menicing than he really was. Standing back up Toma became serious again. "Is it bugging you?" I looked at him, then at the sky. "It's been ten years since then, todays the ten year anniversary... Of corse it's bugging me." I whispered, resting my head on his shoulder.
It'd been ten years since Inuyasha had promiced to come back to me. A lot of stuff had happened since then. I'd learned about mates and why our matelace's were alike, I'd faught Naraku, met Kikyo, and learned to fight. Kiade arrived then, she knew instantly what was going on and looked tord the sky.
Kagome, ye can leave to the castle now if you want. You may just make it before sunset. I looked up at her and smiled. Toma, you'll"... He smirked and winked." Don't need you to protect Kiade. Now get outta here." I hugged them and took off running. I'd learned how to push my muscil's so that I could run at a demonic pace and could jump high enough to hit the trees jumping as soon as I came to them.
By the time I reached the castle, the sun had set and the moons beams played once again on the branches in the garden. I slowed and walked into the maze of plants. Ten years, I thought walking forward, and I still can't let our promice go. I made a right tord the bench by the sakura trees and ran smack into a hard chest.
"Oh!" I yelled and hit the ground. I glared up at the stranger infront of me. Who in their right mind would... "Hay wench, whats the big...Kikyo? I looked closer and my heart skipped a beat. Everything fell out of view untill only he stood their. Long silver hair, dog ears, amber eyes, red kimono. Their was no mistaking it. "I-Inuyasha..."
