So guys I wanna just say… I'm sorry for taking sooooo long! *slumps head* Schools just be ridiculous the last couple of what is now years? Yeah it's really no excuse but still. Anyways, I really wanna thank you all for pming and leaving comments on my youtube about EFY as well as reviewing it and adding it your favs and alerts. I really appreciate it!
Anyways my plan, keyword, is to try and update this within 2 to 3 weeks because I so miss Kana/Sess in my life. No lie D:
Also since it's been so long since I've written in this last I apologize if anyone seems out of character. If they do please let me know so I can try and fix it for the next chapter!
So without further ado here is chapter 10 of Eternity For You, keep in mind this follows the game so some things might seem familiar (we' also still in the set up of Kaname meeting Inu and them, which will be the next chapter really kinda hopefully!) D:
Words: 1,540
Disclaimer:I own nothing! D; Kaname, Sesshomaru, and all the other characters (other than Sayaka of the South) belong to Rumiko Takahashi and Bandai.
Chapter 10
Kaname P.O.V.
"Hey! Are you awake yet?" A voice called out to me. Sighing a little I turned to my side, like I did every morning in bed. Only… something was off… I wasn't laying down and where I was really wasn't that soft. Plus It didn't sound like anyone from home. It wasn't mom or dad and it really wasn't anyone from school either.
Either way I had this sort of déjà vu feeling about his words. Had I heard them before? Had I heard his voice before?
And that's when it hit me! Everything, the falling through the rotten boards in the store house and Sesshomaru's clawed hands around my neck. I felt chills run down my spine at the memory as the bruise on my back ached. Shooting my eyes open, I was instantly blinded by the sunlight that shone brightly over the tiny village in Feudal Japan.
Letting my eyes adjust, I slowly sat up, quite literally since my back was killing me from being slammed into a tree and all. Finally looking up my eyes met a pair of amber orbs, just like Sesshomaru's… only… they were a lot wider and not as narrow and cold. Sitting back a little so I wasn't so close, I got to see the boy at my side better. However, at the sight I felt my heart start to pound frantically in my chest as my memories from yesterday came flooding back into my mind.
"Eh? It…It's you!" I called out completely taken back. The Boy cocked his head to the side as he continued to stare at me.
"H-How are you… still alive? I saw Sesshomaru take you by the throat!" He shouted out at me as he sniffed around me in disbelief his amber eyes wide, "I mean… you're not even injured!"
"I-I don't know." I stammered out as I raised my hand and looked at it. Would he want people to know he helped me? I mean Yeah I didn't really know him or anything besides from my dreams and then at the party where he told me about all this, but he didn't seem like the kind of guy who helped people often at least the one in this time.
Even still I couldn't help myself from asking it, "I-Is he really that bad of a guy?" I mean yeah he was no knight-in-shining armor or anything like that, especially with the way he threatened to kill me earlier but… he didn't seem all that bad. I mean I must sound crazy right now! But… he did heal my hand for me when I cut it the other night and somehow I ended up here. Where ever this is. Maybe? I felt my heart skip a beat and my breath catch a little. I wonder…Did Sesshomaru bring me here? Before I really consider it any longer, the boy began to answer me,
"You've gotta be kidding me. Sesshomaru hate's humans. So how did you get away?" he kept asking his eyes lingering on me as he crossed his arms in annoyance, "Are you gonna tell me or what!" he bellowed in frustrations his dog ears twitching a bit.
"Well I…I gu-guess I just…"
"Inu Yasha!" a frantic yet infuriated voice called out behind us. The boy in front of me finally turned his attention away from me as he stood up straight. His back turned from his as his ears twitched a bit. Following his direction with my own eyes I saw a girl in a school uniform coming our way. A smile spread across my face. 'So I'm not the only normal one here! Thank god!' I cried out to myself, 'Maybe she can help me!'
"We've gotta hurry! There's a demon attacking the village!" she shouted as she grabbed him by the arm before glancing down at me a bit confused at first. She obviously was just as surprised to see me as I was her, "A school uniform?" she piped out as she kept her hazel eyes on me before a blood curdling scream came out of the village,
"Come on, Inu Yasa! Move it!" she shouted her eyes looking down at me before darting back to the dog-eared boy, "It's at the front of the village!"
"W-Wait…" I called out as they both darted away leaving me there by the river bed, which was probably the safest place in the village at this point. Even though I knew I would just get in the way I found myself getting up. There was no way I was just gonna sit here. I mean I took care of that one demon the other day; somehow… maybe I could do it again? Either way I had to try. With that decided I bolted in the same direction as the dog eared boy and the girl had gone just moments ago.
I heard screams in the distance as my feet kicked rocks all about as I sped up. I didn't really know why I was following after them. It's not like I could do anything! Even if I tried to make it seem like some brave feat I was doing by trying to help… I knew the truth. I just didn't want to be alone. At least not in this strange place.
Keeping my pace, I found myself wondering about everyone back home. Mom, dad, Yuki, and Noboyuki…I wonder if anyone's even noticed that I'm gone... I bet dad's probably furious at me for taking so long to get the amulets not to men-
My thoughts were cut short as I reached the entrance of the village. Women were screaming as they began to run past me, while the men grabbed their spears and bow and arrows in a frenzy.
"Kagaome, let's go!" I heard the dog boy call out as the girl with black hair got on his back, "Right!" she called out as they lifted up in the air while the bird like demon crushed a small boy in its clutches. His eyes looking right at me while he let out his final screams as the demon tossed him aside and dodged the arrow shot by the black haired girl. And then…I saw it coming. It was coming for me. My heart stopped and everything become a blur.
Sesshomaru P.O.V.
"Sesshomaru-sama! When we get near Akebi, do you think I could go in the town for a bit?" I heard Rin ask as she ran up beside me her cheeks rosy from the run. While Jaken came running after her with his staff of heads, obviously set off about the way Rin had run up to me so casually.
"Do whatever you want," I told her in my usual tone as I pressed on down the narrow forest path, the two of them following at my heels without a care in the world. I could hear Jaken whining about having to stop while Rin just hummed cheerfully like she always did.
My thoughts suddenly stopped as I pictured 'her' in my mind. The way her hair shined in the moonlight, the ay her eyes are scowled over at me and even the way she smelled was nearly intoxicating. Even now I could still faintly smell her in the air. My mind questioning what she would be doing if she was here instead of where I left her? Would she be humming along with Rin or…would she be minding her own business in the back? I felt a small pain growing in my chest as my mind continued to wonder about her. That girl… that is supposed to be my mate according to some crazy message from the future.
Ridiculous! what am I saying! I shouldn't even be thinking about 'it'! That human wench! I growled. What powers has she used to try and seduce me! The Lord of the Western Lands! I growled to myself, my inner demon still tugging at me to go near her.
"Ah look! There's the village!" Rin chimed out as she ran up ahead of me before turning back a little, "I'll be back in a little bit Sesshomaru-sama!"
"Child! How dare you run past Lord Sesshomaru like that!" Jaken squawked as he pointed over at her and bat his staff around in frustration. Glancing down at him I gave him a glare before kicking him to the side, "Stop it, Jaken."
"Ehhh Sorry my lord!" he managed to cry out as he picked himself up off the ground. And dusted himself up uneasily. Standing at the edge of the forest, I kept to myself while Jaken kept his eyes on me, almost as if he was trying to read what I was thinking. Luckily one glance at him was enough to scare him back to his sense and issue several squeals of apologies.
Then it hit me. The smell of demons were in the air, a little ways from Akebi it seemed. Narrowing my eyes I glanced over at Jaken who instantly stopped what he was doing,
"Jaken. Wait here for Rin." I found myself saying as I got to me feet and leaped into the sky with one thing on my mind that I hated. Kaname.
