Where You Are
Disclaimer: … This sucks. I don't own Naruto or Inuyasha. Sigh
Kagome sat on top of a dune overlooking the cast desert of the Wind Country. Surrounding her was a sand as red as blood. A smirk flitted across her face. It's fitting. This was where she had first met and last seen him. Akasuna-no-Sasori.
The miko took up a handful of the sand and let the red grains sift through her fingers. It wasn't too long ago that she had come across Sasori's partner, Deidara, but he was with someone else.
"Kagome-chan." The miko turned to see the blonde she had been introduced to once and gave him a smile, but he didn't return it. She looked around, expecting to see Sasori, but instead saw a black-haired boy with an orange and black mask covering his face. "Tobi, go ahead and don't cause any trouble; I'll catch up shortly, un."
"Ok; Tobi is a good boy. Don't take too long, Deidara-sempai!" The other Akatsuki ran past her, leaving her alone with the blonde and confused.
"Dei-kun? What's wro-?" The blonde was suddenly in front of her with his arms around her. "D-Deidara!?"
"Shh… He's dead, Kagome-chan; Sasori-donno was killed, un." The miko froze and her eyes widened. She began shaking, not wanting to believe what he had told her. "He wanted you to know that he's sorry he couldn't help you get back home, un."
Kagome wrapped her arms around her friend and let her tears fall. "He doesn't want you to be too sad; just don't forget him, un." A sob shook her body and he tightened his hold on her. "I know… It's hard for me to, un…"
Kagome sighed and lied back on the red sand. Sasori had found her wandering around in the desert, bloody and beaten. He had taken her in and taken care of her. He had been pleasantly surprised when she hadn't been repulsed by the fact that he was a puppet.
A smile graced her lips as she though about the redhead. She had grown… attached to the puppeteer, and looked forward to every meeting they had. He had also promised to try to help her find a way back home, since she had been transported there after the battle for the Shikon.
She heard a small scuttling and turned her head to see a small scorpion running across the sad. He had introduced her to Dei not long after their first meeting, and she was forced to endure their 'conversations' about 'art.' She laughed a little at the memory and turned to face the sky. He wouldn't want her to give up trying to get home, and she was certain that he had told Dei to watch over her.
"Don't worry, Sasori-sama; I'll be fine." She smiled brightly at the sky, know he was probably watching her. "One day, I'll join you where you are."
