Chapter 2
When Kagome looked up she saw that it was still dark and the moon was still full but Kikyo was no longer there, she looked around the well and saw that the vines that were usually there were no longer there. She sighed knowing that it was going to be difficult to try and get out of the well without the vines, but she had to try to get out and see where she was or more likely when she was.
Kagome began to try and fill for some of the rocks that stuck out more but hardly found any and that surprisingly the walls were a bit slippery, well she wasn't about to give up now so she gripped the rocks as best as she could and began to climb.
Not even halfway up she fell back and landed hard on her butt, she groaned to herself and gently rubbed her sore rump, she then got up from the ground and looked back up towards the mouth of the well. She cupped her hands around her mouth and began to shout out.
"Hello? Is anyone out there? I'm stuck here, at the bottom of the well! Anybody?"
Silence, her shouts were greated by silence for there was no one near her that could hear her shouts for help. She sighed to herself and decided that since it was so late that everyone was still asleep, she want to one of the walls and leans her back against it and slid down to the floor.
"Maybe when it is morning someone would come by? I'll have to keep on trying. I can't give up. I have to try and undo what Kikyo had done to the well and get back to the others. I have to try, for them."
With that in mind she pulled her knees up to her chest and rested her head on top of her knees and began to slowly drift to sleep. When Kagome woke up she looked back up towards the mouth of the well and barely saw the pink in the sky signaling that the sun was coming up.
With much determination Kagome got up from the floor and stretched first, once she was done she then once again began to shout for help. This carried on for a while and kagome saw that soon no doubt that within an hour and a half that the sun would be upon her and no doubt she would get a nasty sunburn.
Kagome had no idea what to do anymore, it seemed that no one was around and the sun would be upon her soon enough and to top it all off she didn't have any water! Her throat hurt form all of the shouting that she did trying to get someone's attention but to her luck there was no one around!
Just when she about to actually cry in her despair she heard some noise and at first she thought that it was the wind but when she listened a bit more closely she soon realized that it was actually the sound of footsteps! Finally there was someone near by. Kagome waisted no time in shouting for help.
"Help! Please! I'm down here! Please, help me!"
Kagome then heard the sweet sound of those feet moving towards her direction and she smiled in complete relief, when the person peaked down at the well that she was in she couldn't quite see who it was but she able to tell that it was a man. She waved up at him and before she could say anything the man spoke to her a question that she hadn't know on how to respond.
"What are you doing down there and how did you get there without breaking your neck?"
Kagome smiled impishly at the man and even though his voice was a deep rich baritone, the kind that would make any women go weak in the knees at just hearing it. She scratched the back of her head and said what she hopped that he would accept it and help her get out.
"Just lucky I guess. But anyway can you help me get out? Please?"
Kagome was hoping that if she sounded not only polite but maybe even a bit distressed that he would feel sympathy for her and help her to get out with no further questions. To her astonishment the man had jumped right down the well and just when she was about to panic that he would hurt himself, he gracefully landed right in front of her and straighten up to his full hight.
Kagome felt her jaw drop a bit because well she felt a bit stupid for not noticing sooner that he wasn't a human but a yoaki instead, before she could get a better look at him he scooped her up in his arms bridal style and jumped right out of the well with her securely in his arms.
Kagome 'eep' a bit at the suddenness but then that soon changed when she had to tightly close her eyes at the sudden brightness that shined her eyes after being in the dark for so long. She felt them land back on the ground and then she felt the yokai gently place her back on her feet, her eyes were still close and she was still kind of holding on to him though she was safely out of the well and on the ground.
After a few more seconds Kagome slowly began to open her eyes and after a few blinks her eyes soon adjusted back to normal, when she was able to see okay she then felt that she was holding onto something and when she looked back and saw that her arms were still around the yokai's neck she quickly let go and began to apologizes for not letting go sooner.
While she was apologizing she had failed to notice the smirk that was on the yokai's face at her embarrassment and her apologizes towards him. He chuckled and when he did Kagome looked back up at him, his laugh was just as rich as his voice and it made her heart warm at the beautiful sound.
"There is no need to apologizes."
All Kagome could do was nod her head and blush as she looked at him for the first time and realized that he was really handsome, probably even more so then Sesshomaru!
He was tall probably a bit taller then Sesshomaru, she hadn't thought that was possible but apparently it was. His hair was silver like Sesshomaru's but it had a much richer shine to it and if she had to say it looked a bit better then Sesshomaru's, almost like his was a copy of this yokai's brilliant hair, it was also up in a high ponytail. His bangs were also a bit jagged and they part in the middle showing off the deep blue crescent moon that was on his forehead. His eyes were a rich mix of a liquid-fiery gold that threaten to drown her. He had creamy sun kissed skin. She could also see that he was built but not overly built like those bulky construction workers, no his was a lean perfection that she was practically drooling over. His face was built strong but had a certain softness to them that made her feel relaxed. Kagome then realized that when she was in his arms that they made her feel safe and secure, like nothing could harm her while she was in his arms. She had also notice that he had a single jagged blue stripe that was on each check.
Kagome then noticed that his clothing were all high quality the kind that royals would wear. It looked almost like Sesshomaru's but different, were Sesshomaru only had one shoulder spike he had it on both shoulders. Also instead on having that fury boa thing draped over his right shoulder it was behind him like a cape that dragged behind him just a bit and it split a bit in the middle making two instead of one. Also his sash wasn't yellow and blue like Sesshomaru's but instead a powdery red and blue instead. Also their shirts were different instead of the red hexagon flower that Sesshomaru had his was more like navy blue strips and there wasn't that much either, and to top it all off he had those arm protectors. You know the kind that samurai wear but his was black and silver (silver in the middle and with black strips on the side) instead of one color, it protected the top of his hand and it ended at the end of his elbow.
All in all he was a very and she meant very handsome yokai that she had ever had the pleasure of laying her eyes on and Sesshomaru was right under him. Kagome was brought out of her stare when said yoaki coughed to get her attention and boy did she blush.
"Gomenasai! I didn't mean to stare... I um..." "It's alright."
At his words she smiled up at him and nodded unbeknownst to her the light blush that crossed his checks.
"So. Do I get the name of helping a beautiful young woman?"
Kagome blushed as he called her beautiful, for she really didn't feel that way considering what had happened to her but still it was nice that someone. Especially for someone as handsome as he was calling her beautiful.
"Kagome, my name is Kagome." "Kagome. A beautiful name for a beautiful woman."
Again she blushed at his words but then realized that she had yet to know his name.
"Um... if you don't mind. May I ask for your name as well?" "Of course, it is after all only fair that I give you my name since you have given me yours."
Kagome then realized that he was very polite for a yokai and wasn't stuck up like how most were or mean and cold like Sesshomaru was, though he hasn't been all that cold towards her lately. Maybe because of the many times she had protected and cared for his ward Rin?
"My name is InuToshio."
Kagome eyes grew big at what he just told her.
"It can't be, he suppose to be dead! But wait Kikyo said that she was sending me back further in time. Did she send back when Sesshomaru's and Inuyasha's father is still alive!?"
-
...OMG! This chapter is long! Well I suppose that there will be some chapters that are long and some that aren't. Anyways Kagome has finally meet Toshio and yes that is what I am nameing him. Kagome is much further back into the past the question is though how much further back is she? Also I hoped that I discribed him good and if not then you can look up his image online and see for yourself. There will be a few Japanesses words here and there and I might not always write what they mean so advanced sorry about that. So it finally degins. Review and no negatives please. Enjoy! ;P
