The Dream Of Sorrows
Chapter 5 The Mirror's Reflection
By Inuyashas Youkai
Darkness consumed ,taking with it everything in its path ,even her very breath, and the soul of the woman lost all purpose had given up. Falling into the murky abyss of the unknown Kagome no longer felt fear but letting go of everything that once mattered,and that was because now the girl surround by those who wanted to take were the last she had left. Once the point came when she released herself to be one with whatever was waiting for her,Kagome's soul began to feel relaxed for a time,and until her thoughts lingered on what she was forced to leave it was bliss.
The moment where the last thoughts paused on a demon slayer, fox kit, perverted monk ,or a Inu Hanyou, the soul became weakened with grief. The reasons to why she all of sudden thought of them was beyond her for she had come to term of leaving that life behind ,or at least it was what she made herself believe. A sharp pain rushed through her while the air was getting pushed in to carry her soul and force it back into her body by the sudden ties that bonded it. The girl was suddenly afraid and unsure as to what was happening but something deep inside told her not to be scared.
Opening her sights to a sight of red and a flash of white following close behind she could only guess but at the moment her eyes fell shut against the throbbing of her skull. Feeling heavily exhausted unlike the lightness that her soul was to carry she mused that maybe she was no longer within that horrid place anymore,and maybe this was all a bad dream,only time would tell. Soon she felt her sore from being still, fell silent as Kagome felt weightless once again when sleep took her. Warth enveloped the woman soul,settling back into her body ,and further snuggled into the presence that seemed to hold her.
Inuyasha had carried the girl followed by Sesshomeru into their bedchambers where he proceeded to pull back the covers and tuck her in. Thrilled that the hanyou had his woman back where she belonged,Inuyasha felt content in nuzzling into her touch ,and remained close in his protective embrace ,while they slept. For now ,knowing that Kagome was safe although fighting with his patience, Inuyasha knew that until she woke,he would wait.
Sesshomeru ,upon his brother's objections after a few days passed and still no change ,ordered Inuyasha to take time away from being inside. While Inuyasha's hand was forced to leave Kagome's side ,Rin and his brother had taken his place. Although he knew of the reasons why he was forced to break from his maniacal behavior which included neglecting himself,but Inuyasha didn't have to like it. As for Sesshomeru ,Inuyasha was going to make sure he knew of how much he didn't on the way out.
The hanyou found the only sight within the grounds that reminded him of home and brought him peace,deep inside a old ,tall, tree. It wasn't long before his stubborn mind and demon within to become tangled into the mindset of his fragile human state and fell to slumber. Hours later Inuyasha woke to find the moons pale light shine through the leaves that sheltered him temporarily from his fear of his woman never wake. Shaking the train of thought from those musings that only seemed to bring him pain anyway, leapt down to the cool soil below,and head back to the warmth of the woman that waited for him to return.
On the way back in the near vicinity to where the castle stood,Inuyasha felt something and he couldn't figure out what it was ,or what its intentions were. From what the hanyou strolling back to the castle's doors,could figure out ,it wasn't human,demon,or anything thereof to either one. It almost seemed while looking out into the the starry night as it appeared ,nothing. If it weren't for the scent being off in whatever it was presence ,Inuyasha would think nothing of it ,but because the hanyou picked up the strange spoil smell within what he couldn't see but feel,and with that he knew there was something out there..The question he wanted to know with the growing suspicion that whatever it was ,was indeed watching him,feeling the weight of someones eyes heavily on him,and within its stare Inuyasha wondered what did they want.
Deeper in the forest watching as the hanyou go inside to reunite with his female for the night held the mysterious onlooker to cackle darkly with pride,and smirked. Scheming on the lingering darkness that hovered ,waiting for its time to strike,with the intent on carrying out what in his eyes was meant to be. Turning back to the reflective glass that displayed what was happening through his reflection ,the beast grinned.
Everything was going to plan.
