Prologue…
Beep…beep…beep…beep… ;beep…beep…beep…beep……
It was the only sound in the room except for the shallow breathing coming from the pale figure lying in the hospital bed.
Occasionally someone popped in to check the patient at regularly times but the figure did not move for nothing disturbed the girl’s deep slumber.
When the patient had been admitted, she had been on the verge of death with numerous wounds, some especially deep. The worst were four deep claw marks which started from the left side of her shoulder to finish at the base of the spine.
That had been just under two months ago, as far as the girl’s injuries had went they had healed fairly quickly, almost miraculously so. Several doctors in the large hospital though they had a curious excitement over the girl remarkable healing, it was quenched by none other than the head of the hospital. They had strict instructions just to treat the girl and have her watched, other than that nothing else was to be done to the girl.
For though the patient was healed on the outside, she was still in a coma and had been since she had been admitted.
Everyday someone from the girl’s family came to visit her, her mother, brother or the girl’s grandfather. The mother never looked sad; she always had a bright cheerful face on, brown eyes full of hope. The patient’s younger brother was the same as his mother.
As for the patient’s grandfather, the hospital staff were now used to his prayers and burning incense which always lingered after one of his visits, along with the unusual gifts the old man always brought, some extremely weird. One nurse was sure she heard him say one gift was a water kappa’s foot which brought good health.
It wasn’t only the family who visited regularly; three school girls came once or twice a week, sometimes bringing a boy with them. They always looked sad when they visited. The boy seemed to be trying to outdo the grandfather in his gifts for the patient which the old man always took back with him when he left.
There was one visitor though that nurses especially looked out for, though they never yet seen him enter the hospital through the entrance. A young exotically looking handsome man of about twenty who had long silver white hair tied back off in a red bandanna and sad looking amber eyes and never spoke to anyone appeared now and then in the patient’s room.
He never stayed long, sometimes staff didn’t realise he had even been, only catching glimpses of him now and then. Sometimes he came with the girl’s mother but mostly by himself.
The patient herself was of course subjected to a lot of curiosity. She was only 15 years old and even in her deep sleep, she had a glow of joy about her. There was something about the girl that made one feel calm and tranquil whilst near her, it was strange.
Of course the girl didn’t know any of this; she was totally unaware of her visitors, the nurses and doctors. Kagome Higurashi was also not to know that once again on her 16th birthday in a few days; her life would change even more.
Of how her already crazy life of now would suddenly grow even more crazy, where she would become aware of more than just her other life in the past but where her destiny would soon become entangled with a certain volatile orange haired substitute shinigami.
But of course Kagome wasn’t to know that so deep in her sleep she was, nor was she aware of how her body had started to glow. Very faint at first when she was first admitted but enough that the head of the hospital who was also a certain father of a quiet and serious Quincy boy noticed it straight away.
And as her stay lengthened at the hospital so did the aura grow. Normal humans of course couldn’t see it though of course even they noticed that strange calming aura that she had. But others noticed, for example the Quincy boy himself and of course how could we forget a sandal and beach hat wearing shopkeeper who couldn’t keep his curiosity to himself not even if he tried.
Who definitely noticed though were of course the Hollows, why I doubt such a wonderful and unusual tasty spiritual power would pass under their notice. And that is how and why the orange haired substitute shinigami and his friends became introduced to the patient Kagome Higurashi.
And that is where this story really begins…………..
