< br> The brisk night twinkled with the stars, and Kagome couldn't help but think it was very beautiful. She had taken a rest and was looking up into the deep depths of the sky. This was another rare moment where she could see the stars, taking her breath away all at the same time. She inhaled the cold, crisp air, then released it silently.
The seasons were changing and Kagome had yet to change into more appropriate clothes. She still carried them, hoping the group would stop soon so she could change. She never asked if they could stop, afraid their reaction would be like InuYasha's outbursts.
"Come on Kagome!" she heard Toboe yell, bringing her out of her thoughts. She glanced down to see that they were some ways down the mountain.
"Comming!" she answered and started jumping down to secure edges of the cliff, that she had seen the others land on first. No need to have another accident like before.
They had come out of the tunnel Cheza somehow had created hours ago, and thankfully, there had been no signs of trouble since then.
Kagome slid down the cliff, catching up to the group, to walk in front of Cheza. Kiba and Tsume had the lead followed by Hige and then Toboe, leaving the Flower Maiden and Kagome to bring up the rear. The males of the group were a little further down than the females, but were still visable from where they were. Kagome glided around a corner easily and waited for Cheza to catch up, only to turn around and see that Cheza had kept walking until she was at the very edge.
"Cheza!" Kagome gasped and quickly tried to grab her, but noticed that she had stopped. One foot was placed on the edge while the other was out over the side. To her surprise, Cheza giggled and turned on her foot, to skip down the slope.
"It seems like she's on edge around us, I wonder why?" Toboe spoke as Cheza approched them.
"It's because your on edge around her." Came Kiba's voice from the front of the pack. "How else is she supposed to feel if you all aren't comfortable around her?"
There was a few moments of silence. Why were they all on edge around her? She was only a flower after all! What would she do? She wasnt a real threat, and she had proved that she did want to help them when she created that tunnel to safety. What was the big deal?
"I think it's a new experience. Your all used to just have the four of you around, not six. I think it will adjust in time and everyone will be comfortable with eachother," Kagome pointed out. Even though she was niave sometimes, she could even see this and she wasn't completley used to all the member in the pack, and she knew they were the same with her. With that said, Kagome jumped down onto another ledge and tried to spot a place where they could sleep. Her eyes were instantly drawn to a very wooded area not too far away from where they were. "Hey Guys! I just found a great place to sleep tonight," she yelled to the group, pointing to the said spot.
"At least your useful somehow girl," Tsume said under his breath, so no one could hear him.
But unfortunatly someone did, and she looked questionably at him for a moment before brushing it off. What was up his ass?
!-----!
It took all but a half hour to find a nice clearing in the forest where they could set up 'camp' if you wanted to call it that. It was very secluded, provided by the trees, and no human would even dare to go into it, afraid they might get lost. Although the humans feared it, the animal's felt right at home. For once, the wolves could be left in peace.
The group was still awake, all except for the young pup Toboe. He had fallen asleep the second he laid down. As for the others, Kagome and Cheza sat together, while the males sat across from them.
"How I would love a bath right now!" Kagome said, exasperated as she stretched her arms above her head, working out the kinks. "God knows I need one."
"You got that right girl, you smell horrible," Tsume stated a little too harshley, not even bothering to look up at her.
Kagome's face turned red from anger and embarressment. "How-how dare you! Why are you always so mean to me you ugly old man?!" she said, trying to keep a straight face after she realized what she had said. She looked at him and saw the anger in his eyes, realizing she had struck a cord in him.
"Ugly old man?! You stupid bitch! I am far from being an old man!" He bit out angrily. This girl was so frustrating! He just couldn't take it anymore! His gaze was fierce as he stood up, holding her eyes with his. "Once I get my hands on you-" he started to growl before he stopped himself, afraid to continue.
Kagome's head was bowed in submission, bangs sheilding her eyes, but Tsume could smell the faint scent of her tears. He had gone too far this time and it actually started to scare her.
The groups attention turned to Kagome, who was shaking, obviously trying to hold back her tears. "Is that what you really think I am Tsume? A bitch?" Her eyes rose and met his. Those same eyes that held happiness minutes ago, now threatened to release tears. She looked right at Tsume, searching for something. His breath caught in his throat as he watched emotions flitter in and out through her eyes. Hate...anger...sadness...surprise...and pain.
"Is that what you really think I am Tsume?!" Kagome repeated forcefully.
"I-" was all Tsume could manage to studder. A strange smile graced the female wolf's face.
"If you all didn't like me, why didn't you tell me so I could have left sooner?" she bit out, reaching down to collect her things. This was just like how it used to be with InuYasha, and she just couldn't take it anymore, his actions towards her, along with the stress wanted to make her explode.
Hige, dumbfounded by her reaction, stood up and approched Kagome. "Come on Kagome. You know he didn't mean it don't you? Right Tsume?" he glared at the grey wolf who said nothing. "We all don't want you to leave either!" His eyes pleaded with her to stay. Maybe Tsume didn't like her but Hige was sure as hell not going to let her go. It was nice having her around, and she was a female wolf, a species he handn't seen in a long time.
Kagome watched Hige closely, trying to make sure he wasn't lieing just to make her happy. She searched his eyes and found that he wasn't, silently making her somewhat happy. She looked to Kiba and found his face expressionless, a pang of hurt went through her, but she did not let it show.
Unconciously gripping her things tighter, she sighed. "I'm going to leave for a bit, I wont be back until later tonight. Please don't follow me," her eyes were downcasted as she turned and walked away from the group to think. Even without the outburst she was have asked to leave, the sound of water wasn't far away.
!-----!
"Look what you did Tsume! Your going to make her leave because you just couldn't have kept you mouth shut! I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't come back witht he way you've been treating her," Hige snapped, eyes narrowed dangerously at him. "You know her family was killed ad she cries for them at night. She didn't deserve it Tsume." Tsume's eyes widened a fraction, mouth hanging open, trying to say something but found he couldn't. It was true, she did cry for her family at night and he knew it as well as the others. But none of them had a family, were they supposed to pitty her or something?
"None of us have families, what makes her so different?!" TSume snapped, not thinking about what he had said.
Silence hung through the air as Tsume watched Hige's eyes widen in hatred.
"None of us knew our families because they were killed when we were yourng or before we were born, so we didn't actually know them," the voice came into the conversation calmly, stopping Hige, who was about to attack Tsume. "To...have seen people you love killed seconds before you got home...it must have destroyed her inside...She probably wished she could have been there to stop it from happening...maybe even wishing she could have taken their places..." Kiba stood up, hands fisted at his sides. "And even after all the pain she went through...she is trying to help us get to paradise...a place she only found out about practically a few days ago...she even risked her life to save Cheza," his eyes strayed to the said Flower Maiden. "the only think griving her, the only thing keeping her alive is her want for revenge." Kiba's eyes closed as he tried to calm his feelings of irritation, saddness and rage. "No one should have to live like that."
!-----!
Silently peeling the clothes from her body, Kagome let each item drop carelessly to the ground before stepping into the softly flowing river. It was cold, something she was used to, and not really bothered by.
She wadded through the water until she was waist deep and started to clean herself as best as she could, since she had no tolitries. 'He is so much like InuYasha and yet in some ways he's not.' Her thoughts strayed to the half demon before she shook her head.
'He is my past and I have to move on,' she thought almost sadly before she let her whole body sink under the water. She made sure she was all the way at the bottom, back laying against the floor when she looked up and saw the iridescent glow of the moons rays. 'It's so beautiful from down here.' She closed her eyes and held her breath as she let her body relax in the water. 'I wish...'
!-----!
"Kiba! Where are you going?!" yelled Hige as he looked off at Kiba's retreating form.
"She's been gone for a long time Hige, I'm going to check on her," the white wolf said calmly as he dissappeared into the woods, leaving Tsume, Hige and Cheza to wait for his, and hopefully Kagome's return.
!-----!
His steps were defined and steady as he made his way through the woods, following Kagome's scent. It was obviously leading away from the group, but, he noticed, he couldn't hear any noise or anything else for that matter. Her scent got stronger with every step he took, so he should have been able to hear her by now right? It was actually a little too quiet.
He picked up his pace as her scent was almost at its strongest. She was okay right? He pushed aside a bush as he finally reached a calmly running river. "Kagome?" he called softly as he searched for her form. His head turned in every direction their was the slightest chirp of a cricket or rustle of leaves.
This place was where her scent ended, so she had to be here. He walked over to a tree and peered behind it, placing one had on its rough bark to steady himself. His eyes searched everything when he caught sight of two sets of clothes. Why wasn't she here and why couldn't he see her if she was in the water? Surely she couldn’t have...committed suicide?
He quickly turned around and almost tripped over a root from the tree before rushing over to the rivers edge. Eyes narrowing, he looked for anything that resembled her. "Kagome!?" he called, hoping he would hear an answer as he jogged into the water until he was knee deep. His head turned furiously from side to side, searching. "Kagome!?" he barked out, hands fisted at his sides.
An air bubble rose to the surface and popped, immediately drawing his attention. More air bubbles came up, one after the other. That's when he noticed. Her body was at the bottom, gasping for breath.
She would drown if he didn’t' save her.
!-----!
'I wish...'
'For the destruction of your friends?'
Kagome blinked before she closed her eyes again. 'Shut up that's not what I was going to say' she replied to 'herself'.
'Ah, am I mistaken? Then it is the ones that have hurt you, you wish to punish?'
'Yes.'
The voice that she thought was her own took on a manly tone, one that was not pleasant, and sent goose bumps throughout her body. 'It will not matter who you punish...for everyone will be punished once I find you. I have seen what the future is for you and what you can do now...' The Voice trailed off for a moment.
'Who are you?!' Kagome screamed frantically in her head.
'You will find out whin I come for you. And I will use you to open the gates to Paradise along with my Flower Maiden!' The voice boomed as an image of a golden eye flashed through her head with a loud shriek.
Kagome's eyes sprang open unseeingly as she tried to scream, but found she couldn't. The eye had almost paralyzed her with its intense gaze. It was so unreal...her eyes finally focused and she began to panic. Her throat was getting hot and she needed to breath. She needed to get to the surface but it looked so far away...
'Is this it? Am I going to die?' She could hear a faint splash that was soon followed by an unnatural movement of the water. The next thing she knew, someone had grabbed a hold of her naked waist and was dragging her to the surface. 'Who is this?'
When they breached the top, Kagome gasped in a large breath of air as he rested her head on her saviors shoulder. This person...seemed so familiar...but she couldn’t remember for some reason who it was. After a few more intakes of air, Kagome looked into the eyes of her savior and became ridged the second she saw that color.
They were golden eyes and Kagome screamed.
