InuYasha Fan Fiction / Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Forbidden Prophecy ❯ Silent Savior ( Chapter 5 )

  I awoke sometime later that night. I yawned and streteched, heading towards the bathroom. I looked in the mirror. I looked like crap right now. My face was all red and puffy, my hair looked like it got into a fight with a pair of scissors, and guess who won? I turned the shower on and undressed and got in. I don't know how long I stayed in their, but I was all wrinkly and I don't think I've ever been cleaner. I walked into my room with a large fluffy purple towel wrapped around me. I sat on my bed and looked at my clock. 3 AM. I slid into a pair of pajama pants and put on a tank top that said 'Hugs Wanted' with a picture of Elmo off of Sesame Street on the back. I laid on my bed for about an hour. I couldn't sleep. Thoughts from earlier kept keeping me awake. I sighed and walked over to my window, I opened it up and looked outside.

  I slipped on a pair of flip-flops and jumped onto the nearest brach. I leapt to the ground and headed off to the park. I hummed to myself quietly while walking down the street. Tokyo was quiet for a change. I saw the park ahad of me and headed inside. I knew exactly where I wanted to go. There was a lake in the middle of the miniature forest. When I looked at it the moonlight boucned off, casting light in to the area.

  I sat on a bench next to the water, and stared into the water, looking at my reflection. The only thing I really liked about my change were my eyes. They were a deep crimson red that seemed to glow in the dark. I threw my head back and closed my eyes."What did I do to deserve this?" I muttered.

 

  A rustle in the bushes behind me set off my senses.(God that was crappy..)"Hello?" I looked around, ready to run if I had to. No answer. I know I should've realised it was my stalker. I picked up a rock at walked over to where I heard the sound. I threw it at at the shadow that barely blended in with the rest of the shadows. I watched him move and a hand shot out to grab the object. Atleast this wasn't my text book. I didn't have to worry about getting a rock back. I caught it as it came back at me."Why won't you come down?" I asked quietly, more to myself though I knew he would hear me. I knew I wasn't going to get an answer. I was tempted to climb the tree and see who it was, but I decided against that thought.

  I sat down under the tree and leaned against it."I don't care if you don't answer me. Yep. Don't bother me one bit." Ohh.. that was a lie."Even if you don't care, my names Kagome." I picked at a blade of grass. I poked an ant with it. "Are you a mute?" I asked."Hn." I jumped. I wasn't expecting an answer. Atleast, I think that was an answer."Was that answer? I don't speak Shadow-nese." I giggled. I couldn't help it. I saw the demon's shadow on the ground in front of me. He wasn't tall, though he wasn't standing, His hair looked like he got shocked by lightning. I wish I could see his face. I looked up and couldn't see anything."Dangit, you stupid demon! Come down here, or I'll come up there."

  In truth, I hate climbing trees. I fell outta one once when I was 6."And what will you do if you get up here?" I jumped again."Why do you start talking now? When I'm all jumpy!" I asked irratably. No answer. I turned my thoughts to my parents once more. They both died because of me. I don't even remember them. I'm a princess though, thats an up-side, right?

  I felt a familiar tug at my mind and realised the demon above me could read my thoughts.'You're a nosy aren't you?' I thought.'Get out please.' He stayed there a few more seconds. I pulled up pictures I'd seen my friends look at. Near-nude guys in nothing but boxers. He left my mind almost instantly. I grinned."Enjoy that?" I heard a snort."It's safe to say you like the opposite gender." I mumbled.

 

  We sat in comfortable silence, until I saw the first sun rays come up over the park."Kuso.." I whispered. I stood up started off, I turned around to wave at the demon, and realised I could have seen him clearly from this angle. I saw a flash of black, which I asumed was part of his outfit, and he was gone. I used my newly found demon speed to get home.

 

  I sped up the shrine steps and hurried up the tree into my room. I didn't need a bath, so I just got ready. I pulled my hair back into a small pony tail and slid my uniform on. I ran through the kitchen, no one was up yet. I made some toast and wrote a note telling my adoptive mom I got up early and I headed over to meet Shuuichi. I ran out the door and headed over to Shuuichi's, jumping from car top to car top.

:With Kurama:

  Kurama was just getting out of bed when he heard someone knocking on the front door. His mother didn't answer the door, so he assumed she was at work already. "Hold on"! Kurama called out. He changed into his uniform and brushed his hair quickly. He opened the door and was surprised to see Kagome standing there."You're here early." He said.  Kagome nodded, her blue pony tail bobbing up and down. "I've been up since 3. I went to the park and.." She stopped. Kurama ntoiced she stopped after she went othe park."Wait..Why were you at the park so early?" Kagome shrugged."I couldn't sleep. Now grab your stuff, and lets get to school." Kurama did as she said.

 

  They were on their way to school. It was quiet since it was still pretty early. Kagome was humming happiily to herself. She had few things to be happy about though. One, she had gotten her shadow friend to speak, and two, she finally found out her true past. Though that was also one of the terrible things. Her parents dieing. She wondered what her father looked like. From what Kun-Loon told her, he sounded like a very handsome man. Fiery red hair and beautiful blue eyes. Her mother sounded beautiful as well. Bouncy blue hair, crimson eyes much like her own.

 

  Shuuichi brought Kagome out of her musings. Kagome groaned. She had that horrid math teacher first period. Mrs. Whats-Her-Face. She decided to just call her that.

 

:In class:

:Kag's POV:

 

  I walked into the class with the teacher glaring at me while I took my seat. I just smiled innocently and blinked a couple times. Her face got this Sesshomaru-look on it. Speaking of Sesshomaru, I haven't talked to him since yesterday. Oh well. Yusuke sat next to her and almost immediately fell asleep. I poked him."Ruh?" He grunted."Wake up." He looekd up at me."Why?" I shrugged. He went back to sleep. Mrs. WHF asked me the first question. I got it right. (I'm only in 7th grade, I don't know what Highschool people do in math) She asked me every other question and I got every one right. She looked at me disbelievingly.

  By now she was skipping all the students and going straight for me. Except for once, when Yusuke raised his hand."What?" The teacher snapped. "What time is it?" He asked grinning. Mrs. WHF got so red in the face I thought she would explode. Several students laughed. The bell rang and we ran outta there before we got in trouble. Next was lunch. Science after that. Wow, my schedule changes alot. Odd. I headed to the lunch aerea, remembering where it was thanks to Shuuichi.

 

  I headed to my spot under the tree. I didn't have a lunch today. I just wasn't hungry. As if on que, the trademark blur had blurred his way into the tree."Hello!" I said cheerfully, as of he was an old friend (We all know how he is, even if you didnt read the notes). I got a "Hn." In return. I could see Shuuichi and his friends sitting at the same table as yesterday."Can I ask why you're stalking me?" I said casually, like I'd had stalkers before. No answer. "Well, atleast your not sleeping in the tree outside my window," I remember Inuyasha doing that once."Can I atleast know the name of my stalker? I don't think you like being called Mr.Spikey Demon Dude."

  I saw Shuuichi look at me. Yusuke and the bafoon doing the same. I realised how stupid I looked, talking to someone they couldn't see. I felt that Oh-So familiar tug in my head.'Hiei.' I blinked."Huh?" I said outloud. 'Oh wait never mind. Your name's Hiei? Okay. Lets check that off the list. All thats left is get you out of that tree. That may take awhile.' I thought. Shuuichi came out of the cafeteria and towards me. Yusuke and bafoon fowlling him like usual. "The bells about to ring." Ididn't want to go to English. I made a face and shook my head."I don't wanna go." I said stubbornly. Yusuke laughed. "You have to." I just blinked. "Says who?" "The principle does." I still shook my head. "Nope." "Yes." NO." "Yes." "Ain't happening." I said with a tone in my voice that said I wasn't saying anymore. Shuuichi sighed and shook his head before walking off. Yusuke stayed behind. Kuwabara left, too."Why ain't you going?" I asked him."Keh. Like I wanna come to this school." I grinned and leaned against the tree.

  I looked up to where I knew Hiei was still sitting.'What will it take for you to come down.' No answer.'Grr....First you'll talk to me. Then you won't. Make up your mind!' I knew he was still in my head. The tug was still there. I was brought out of my one sided argument by a loud beeping noise. Yusuke jumped and pulled what lookedl ike a compact disk out. "Ermm..Yusuke, your not gay ar you?" He sputtered out a no and walked off. I thought I heard a woman's voice coming from inside little make-up disk. I looked around to make sure no one was around and stood up. I felt the tug go away when I looked up. I got ready to jump up in there. Really I did. I was about to jump when I sat down again. I guess I'm still scared of trees. I stood up again and steadied myself. I was gonna see him if it was the last thing I did! "Come out of that tree now!" I shouted, knowing it was a fruitless attempt. I walked up to the tree and grabbed for the closest branch. I pulled myself up and looked up. The leaves were too thick. And he had went up farther. "Your doing this on purpose!" I shouted in a nauseous like voice. I went up another brnach. Then another. Thats when I decided to look down. I shouldn't have. I felt myself falling. I braced myself for the impact, but it never came.

  I remember someone cataching me. I had it a feeling it was Hiei the Stalker Demon Dude. I had my eyes closed and I felt myself bening laid on the ground. When I finally opened my eyes he was gone.

::So whaddya think? I like writing this story. It entertaining knowing I control every character... I know that the characters seem OOC (I guess), but I write that way so nyah. If you don't like that then go back now.::
