Chapter 3: Kidnapped?
"Thank you," Kagome said. "Thank you for taking me out and helping me have a great time…uh…prince." Inuyasha chuckled a bit and said, "You don't have to call me prince. You can call me Inuyasha." Inuyasha smiled. 'Inuyasha's smile just makes my heart want to melt…sigh…he's just so dreamy.' Kagome thought. Inuyasha sat down and so did Kagome. The sun is setting, it was like a romantic scene that Kagome always read about in fairy-tales, the prince watches the sunset with his princess and they…kiss…Kagome blushed. 'Inuyasha kiss me? Nah, I don't think so,' Kagome thought. 'He will never kiss a girl like me…he's a prince and I'm just an orphan… it will never happen.'
"You know," Inuyasha started. "I…never had this much fun in my life…"
"Really?"
"Yeah, I'm always so busy and I never have this much fun. My father says that it is my duty as a prince to be responsible and stuff like that…and I had no one to talk to…"
"It…It must be hard to be a prince…" Kagome said. Inuyasha smiled and said, "Yeah, it is..." Inuyasha paused then began again. "…But when I met you, everything started being fun…you're like a person I can trust and talk to…" Inuyasha stopped again and looked at Kagome. Then suddenly, Inuyasha gave Kagome a hug and said, "Thank you…for being…my friend…" Kagome blushed a little when he hugged her but smiled at the same time. Kagome hugged him back and responded, "You're welcome." Inuyasha let go of Kagome and went back at looking at the sunset, Kagome did the same. Inuyasha then remembered something, he checked inside his pocket and found a heart locket. He remembered what his father said about the locket before he died.
Inuyasha's flashback…
"Here, take this…" Inuyasha's father said as he was holding a locket. "What is this?" Inuyasha asked curiously. "It's a locket," Inuyasha's father responded. "Give it to a person that you truly care about." Inuyasha's father took Inuyasha's hand and placed the loket in his hand. "Promise me that you will find the one you care about." Inuyasha nodded and said, "Yes father…I promise." Inuyasha's father smiled and said, "That's my boy."
End of Inuyasha's flashback…
"Kagome…" Kagome turned around and faced Inuyasha. "I…want you to have this…" Inuyasha took the locket out of his pocket and showed it to Kagome. "W…what is that locket for?" Kagome asked. "My father said to give it to the person that I truly cared about…" Inuyasha responded. Kagome blushed. 'Inuyasha cares about…me…?' Kagome thought. "Would you…like to accept this locket?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome smiled and nodded. "May I put this on you?" Kagome nodded again. Kagome lifted up her hair so that Inuyasha could put the necklace on her. After he put it on her, she looked at the locket and said, "Oh, Inuyasha, It's…it's beautiful…" Inuyasha smiled and said, "Just like you…" Kagome blushed. 'Did…did he just said that?' Kagome thought still blushing like a tomato. Inuyasha held Kagome's hand and together they watched the sunset. Everything was coming out perfectly, until a voice came in a disrupted them. "KAGOME! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Kagome stood up quickly and saw the orphan teacher running towards them…with Kikyou behind her. "Kikyou told me you weren't doing your chores and that you were too busy flirting with the prince." The orphan teacher said extremely mad. Kikyou snickered. Kagome glared at Kikyou. 'Kikyou…I should've known…' Kagome thought bitterly. "I'm sorry once again your highness," The orphan teacher said apologizing. "This won't happen agin, I promise." Inuyasha stood up and walked toward the orphan teacher and said, "Let go of her…"
"B-b-but…your highness…"
"I said, let her go." Inuyasha commanded once again. The orphan teacher did as she was told. Kagome ran next to Inuyasha. "Kagome…she's the best thing that's ever happened to me…" Inuyasha started. "Kagome is sweet, kind, and understanding…and I want her to be…by my side…" The orphan teacher looked at the prince shocked to what the prince just said but then sighed and said, "Well, alright, as long the prince is happy. Kagome, you may visit him whenever you like," Kagome smiled big as ever and the orphan teacher returned a smile. Kikyou glared at Kagome very mad. The orphan teacher was just about to leave but then stopped and said, "Come on Kikyou." Kikyou took one last glare at Kagome and followed the orphan teacher. As they were walking back, Kikyou looked back at Kagome and Inuyasha, they were hand in hand and looking at each other with love in their eyes. 'UGH! That should've been me! He should've been holding my hands, not Kagome's dirty ugly hands!' Kikyou thought as she lie on her bed. Kagome arrived in the room with a smile on her face. All the girls gathered around her and asked so many questions about the prince, like: "What did he say?"
"Is he romantic?"
"Is he handsome?"
"Did he treat you like a princess?" Kagome answered all the questions and most of the girls giggled. 'Hmph! That stupid Kagome. She thinks she is the luckiest girl in the world just because the prince thinks she's all pretty. "Oh my gosh! Where did you get that locket?" Kikyou turned around, she saw Kagome wearing a locket on her neck. "The prince…" Kagome paused and blushed for a minute then spoke again. "The prince gave this to me." The whole room suddenly went, "Awwwwwwww!" Kikyou now went extremely jealous. 'That should've been me wearing that locket!' Kikyou thought extremely jealous. The orphan teacher walked into the room and said, "Alright girls, it's time to go to bed. Lights out." The girls did as they were told and went straight to bed. "Good night girls." The orphan teacher said as she blew a kiss. She closed the door gently and soon, everyone went to sleep, all except Kagome. She was thinking about Inuyasha. 'Sigh…Inuyasha is SO sweet and he said that I was a special person to him!' Kagome smiled even bigger. She loved the way he said it to the the orphan teacher…and to Kikyou. Soon, Kagome went to sleep, dreaming about her being in Inuyasha's arm and whispering I love you in her ear and kissing her gently on the lips. Kagome loved her dream and wished it last forever. Kagome woke to the sound outside of her window. She got up and looked outside of the window and saw nothing. 'Don't worry Kagome, it's just a tree knocking on my window.' Kagome thought to herself. Kagome lie down on her bed again and went back to sleep. Then there was another noise. Kagome got up once again and saw nothing. "Okay Kagome, now you're losing it…"Kagome said to herself. "I'm probably imagining stuff…" Kagome lie down on her bed again, she tried to fall asleep but she couldn't because she was afraid. She tried to leave her eyes open but couldn't so she fell asleep. Then all of a sudden, she felt a hand covering her mouth. She tried to scream as loud as she can for everyone to hear, but no one heard her screaming, they were all asleep. Then everything started turning black. 'No…Kagome…don't fall as…leep…' Kagome blacked out.
The next morning…
You have found your future bride already!" Inuyasha's mother, the queen, exclaimed all excited. "Yes mother, she is a wonderful girl…" Inuyasha said as he was smiling. "Oh! What's her name!" The queen asked. "Her name is Kagome," Inuyasha said still smiling big as ever. "She's…wow…she understands me…she's very unique and she's just so…beautiful…" Inuyasha said blushing. Ever since he met Kagome, she's only been on her mind. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go and announce the big announcement!" The queen said. Inuyasha followed his mother to the orphanage. He couldn't wait to see Kagome's reaction to this. 'Kagome, once you become the princess of Japan, I promise to love you every single moment of my life…' Inuyasha thought to himself.
Once they got there, they saw a lot of solders surrounding the orphanage. Inuyasha ran to the orphan teacher and asked, "What happened here?" The orphan teacher looked at Inuyasha with sad eyes and responded, "Kagome…Kagome is…"
"Kagome is what?"
"Kagome is…gone…" Inuyasha looked shocked. Kagome gone? What did she mean? "W-what do you mean she's gone?"
"Kagome has been…kidnapped…" Inuyasha looked like he was about to cry. "Oh Inuyasha…it's…it's okay…" The queen said trying to comfort Inuyasha. Inuyasha didn't hear his mother, instead he ran away. "INUYASHA, COME BACK!" The queen called out. Inuyasha didn't hear his mother again. He ran away so he can hide his tears. He went to the place where he gave Kagome the locket. "K…k…Kagome…where…have you…gone…to?" Inuyasha said to himself. Inuyasha wiped away his tears, stood up and said, "Kagome…where ever you are…I will find you…and when I find you…I will hold you in my arms and never let you go…I promise…I will find you…"
With Kagome…
Kagome opened her eyes to find that she was in a cold room. "W…where am I?" Kagome asked to herself. A shadow came toward her and said, "You're in my lair." The shadow figure came out of the dark. The shadow was a woman. She had long white hair, she has one blue eye and one red eye, and she looked very young for an old women. "Who are you and what do you want from me?" Kagome asked very scared. The women laughed and said, "Oh nothing, I just want you to work with me…" Kagome shook her head and said, "No way!"
"Fine then, I'll just have to…erase your memories!" A huge machine came in and erased Kagome's memories! "H…huh…where…where am I…" Kagome said really confused. "Don't worry daughter," The women said as walked toward Kagome. "Everything's alright. Come." The old woman said leaving the room with Kagome. Now Kagome doesn't remember anything…not even Inuyasha!
