Split Personality Disaster
Ch. 13 – The Start of a Long Journey
KAGOME POV
[{!.!}]
It was tremendously cold in the dark building sending shivers down one's spine just by standing a few feet from it. The three young children were huddling in the corner, unsure of what to do next. The beautiful, raven-haired leader was currently the only one brave enough to fight the strong aura that was emanating from the storage house. The aura was black and full of malice, but for some reason it felt strangely familiar to the pre-teen. Why? She didn't know, but that feeling in her gut boded no good-will.
She was struggling not to let loose a shiver from down her spine, she was sure that if it did, the already scared married couple would start cuddling and cowering in front of her very eyes. Pushing that thought away from her mind, she cautiously opened the scroll that released the most hatred.
It seemed as if the evil aura was dissipating from her very touch to the young girl, surprising her out of her wits thus making her jump. It was strange but this power that flowed through her veins with ease; it felt as if she had it forever. But how is that possible when she just realized she even had the power now?
"Do you always write in that beaten up book?"
"Hey! You made me lose my train of thought!" I snapped, clearly angry and frustrated. And trust me, that isn't a good combination.
"Sorry…" He got interrupted by me.
"Sorry just doesn't reach it. Now I won't be able to finish it… and just when inspiration was hitting too…" I muttered the ending. My head snapped back up when the realization of what he first said sunk in, "And YES I do always write in this book… well at least once a week anyway. Ask Haku if you don't believe me." I harrumphed and walked away to the very scroll I was writing about.
"W-what… WHAT are you doing?" Miroku stuttered then took a hold of his emotions.
"What does it look like? I'm sitting down?" I added sarcastically.
"No, it looks like you're going to open the most dangerous scroll in here."
"Well, that's what I was going to do until you interrupted me." I took a hold of the scroll in my hands and immediately felt the room go cold. I wonder why…
"NO! DON'T OPEN IT!" both Miroku and Haku shouted. Well too bad, so sad, I wanted to say.
No! Don't open it! Selene shouted, just a few seconds too late.
Crap. If you say no…
Then it's bad! Really bad!
"OH GOD NO!" this time we all chorused. And that's saying something, since I never screamed ever since we got to this creepy old shrine that stands on our property….
Errrr… it's on your property…
So?
What do you mean so? It means, why the heck did you not feel this before?
Oh…
Yah… nice answer… ohhh…. *Mental slap to OUR forehead* It means, that somehow you were immune to this aura before! What the heck does that mean?
Uhhh….
This is no time to be Patrick Star!
I'm not a starfish!
Forget it…
Forget what?
Selene didn't answer as we both felt the sudden chill in the old storage room, and just as I wrote in my "beaten-up book" I felt the power rush through my veins and practically pouring out of my pores. It felt as if I had used it before, but the only problem with that is that I had never used this power in my life before… and considering that I just found out that I even possess it doesn't ease things.
The power flowed through my body with familiarity and the sudden drop in temperature ceased to continue declining. Instead, it started rising to its normal warmth. I felt proud of my accomplishments but it soon fled as I felt a tug at my hands. I looked down at the scroll that I just opened a few seconds… maybe minutes ago. I gasped aloud, almost letting the scroll drop, but I felt something in the back of my mind awaken and that something told me not to drop it.
Why was the scroll pure black? I motioned to the guys to come closer with my elbow and nodded in reassurance, letting them know that nothing was wrong with me.
I felt the twos' aura approach me cautiously and I mentally rolled my eyes. I motioned for them to speed up and immediately felt their presence near me as they both looked over my shoulder at the opened scroll. "Hey, Kagome? Why's it black?"
"Do I look like I know?"
"Yah." Please tell me you actually predicted that. Cause if you didn't it means that you don't know Haku that well yet.
"Haku… Shut up why don't you?" I sighed heavily, feeling the need to get out of here before my pressure levels rise. For God's sake, I'm only twelve. Don't say anything to that Selene; that's an order.
I wasn't going to. She harrumphed.
The scroll caught my attention once again with its haunting aura radiating from it. I saw silver letters flying across the parchment and took my time to analyze the letters. I felt Haku and Miroku stare at me and the scroll back and forth like a tennis match. I quickly got a hold of the letters and whispered each one out after, "Haku, write the letters I'm going to say." A few minutes of searching and I heard Haku yell out a READY!
"'A'… Two of them."
"An 'R'?"
"A 'K' and a 'U'?"
"And an 'N'."
"Crap." I heard Haku gasp.
"What?" I turned around and asked hurriedly.
"Don't you see what that spells?" Haku asked appalled.
"No?" I saw Miroku mentally faint and the light from his eyes disappear as he prepared to answer.
And simultaneously, I heard them say, "Naraku."
Well, crap. Doesn't this just lighten my day up?
