Disclamer: Me no own Inuyasha. wimper...hides in corner Waaaaahh!
"AAAHHH!"
Kagome looked up sharply from her perch. She spread her senses and felt the aura of fear and helplessness at the lake. Her eyes narrowed, and she bolted off toward it.
It was a matter seconds before she reached the lake. She got there just in time to see a child trying to stay afloat, and then be pulled down. She wasted no time, and dove in. Her demon powers flowed through her body, enabling her to breathe. She saw the child strugling to get out of the grip of a kelp demon. Swimming down, she summoned her katana, by the name of Chakiba, and sliced down, on to the tentacles that were holding the kid, cutting them off.
She grabbed the girl and swam up. Getting out, she put her onto shore. But as soon as she did that, the enraged demon burst out of the water.
"How dare you steal my prey, you wreched being?!" it howled.
"I will not allow you to hurt the innocent!" shouted Kagome. (A/N: Superhero mode much?)
"Foolish wrech! I shall kill you, along with that gi-"
Kagome waited to hear no more. She moved forward, Chakiba glowing, and swung out at the demon. It leaped back at the last second, but apperantly not fast enough, because of the gash on its arm.
"That is quite enough. Leave while you still can, demon." she growled out.
"Not without the child and your corpse!"
Narrowing her eyes, Kagome swung Chakiba, slicing the demon in half.
'Child's play.'
Kagome turned around and picked up the trembling girl. She clutched onto Kagomes clothes as she sobbed out "Thank you, Kagome-nii-chan!"
The miko/demon smoothed down the girls hair in comfort, as she carried her back to the vilage, and calmed her down, saying " Now, Kochou, calm down. Everything is OK, no one is hurt. Besides, big girls dont cry(love that song, lol)."
"Hai, Kagome-nee-chan."
As she aproached the village, Kochou's mother came running toward them.
"Kochou, my baby! Oh, Kagome, thank you so much!"
"No problem"
The lady walked away, sobbing, as she cradled her daughter, and Kagome leaped into a tree.
'The sun is about to rise. Perfect' she thought. 'I'll stay here until it does, and then I'll get going.'
As the sun rose, the children that were scattered around all ran to the tree. "Bye bye Kagome-chan!" they shouted.
Kagome smiled and waved.
Once the sun rose, she leaped off the branch, landing about 50 feet away, and took off. And she ran. The wind soared around her, pushing her forward, accelarating her speed. Faster and faster, until the colors around here were mere blurs. Never heasitating, never stopping, her heart beatng faster and faster as she picked up more speed. Past the blurs of trees, meadows, lakes, and mountains, until she reached her maximum speed. Her heart bursting with the feeling of freedom, the feeling sinking into her body, cleansing her mind, reaching out into her soul, and she felt as if she would burst. Finally, the edge of the cliff came into view, and as she got to the edge, she pushed her limit as far as she could, accelarating just a bit more, adn jumped. And then she was falling. Falling as if she was flying. Flying, not because of the wind, but on her own accord. She loved this feeling, a feeling of freedom. Closing her eyes, she let her miko powers flow freely, feeling the rush of the wind that she, for once, was not controling. She felt a new wind, a strong, new one that was pushing up against her. Not the smooth, soft wind that carried her, but a new, fierce one, that she would do anything to obtain. She opened her eyes and collected her miko energy into her body, making it as dense and concentrated in the center of her body as possible. Then, she forced it out. It leaped out, clashing with the wind. The wind howled out around her, fighting back, fighting her power. She forced her energy even more, it surrounder her, and battled the fierce wind. Finnaly, the wind gave one last howl, and submitted. Kagome smiled, as the new, fierce power settled into her body. And finnaly, just before she crashed to the ground, she called upon this new wind, and it came to her, flowed around her, deccelarating her speed. Finally, her small feet touched the ground and grass, and she smiled. Laying down in the lush sea of green, smiled, and sighed contently. The wind blew arround her, soothing her, and with one last content sigh, her eyelids drooped slightly, once, twice, and finally, her eyelashes touched her cheeks, and she fell into a deep sleep.
