The Fairytale that Never Happened
Chapter 8
The next day, I woke up and everyone was out of the hut except Kaede and I. I looked over at her. ''Where are they all, Kaede-chan?" I asked.
"Inuyasha, Kagome-Sama, Houshi-Sama and Sango-Sama all went to the hotsprings not too far from here," Kaede replied.
"I see..."
"Onee-Sama, are you alright? Usually you don't sleep this late into the day," she eyed me worriedly.
"I'm fine, Kaede-chan," I replied. "Do not worry about me. Go out and play with the children of the village." I said to her and walked out without a single word.
"Onee-Sama..." I heard her whisper, but thought nothing of it. I sighed and walked into the forest alone. I know Inuyasha would probably have my head, but I could care less. I can deal with him.
I heard the friends talking in the hotspring, but I wasn't like them, I realized. I was in a class of my own. I was an outsider. A woman who could not live a normal life until the Shikon no tama was completely purified.
"Kikyou...?" I heard someone whispering. I turned to see Sango emerging, and walking over to me. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Sango-Sama," I replied. "I'm not that fond of Kagome, much."
"Oh?" Sango raised an eyebrow.
"I know it's probably nothing, but I feel like she's going to steal Inuyasha away from me."
"Well, you love each other, right?" Sango asked and I nodded. "We've been together as friends for two years before we finally realized that we loved each other."
Sango smiled. "Well, if Kagome is trying to take Inuyasha away, I'm sure he'll realize who he truly loves sooner or later. Don't worry, I know it's you. He talks about you constantly."
"He... does?" I aske in bewilderment.
Sango nodded. Hmm... I had a lot to think about now...
