This is the third chapter and yes, up until chapter eleven the chapters will be short and drabble-like. The twelfth, and final chapter, is much more "regular" and it explains everything. No one asked, but I thought it would be best if I did say it--no reviews yet but I have around 100 hits. You'd think one person would review, lol.

Happy reading.

Clarity

Five years ago.

Sometimes Kagome would sit in front of a mirror for hours, trying to understand.

What was it about her that had attracted them?

Was it her unordinary blue eyes?

Was it her dark air that sometimes seemed blue?

Was it her small feet?

Was it her compassionate nature?

Or was it something different entirely—like how she had housed a powerful jewel within her?

How she had control over something that no one on the planet couldn't seem to resist?

Sometimes she wished… But she knew how futile that was.

So she would walk on the stone walk way, barefoot, and say the chants that she was taught.

And hoped, because wishing and dreaming were worthless, that he would come.

But then she realized something she hadn't before.

She had stop hoping, wishing, dreaming about him.

She wanted a friend.

Nothing more.

She didn't dream about him like she used to.

She was too old for that by now wasn't she?

She rubbed her scar.

Sometimes she wished, the only wish she ever wished, that it had this disfiguring scar.

But then again, Kagome was kind.

She would never wish harm on someone she used to care about.

Kagome looked at the stars and the full moon, clearing seeing the man on the moon, and wished upon a falling star.

A wish that would never come true.
