InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Burned Down, Burned On ❯ Going Under ( Chapter 1 )

Disclaimer: I hope you guys like this so far. I'm working hard but I have a lot of other fanfictions to work on too. Anyway...enjoy! The chapters get longer, I promise! The song in this is like the title and is by Evanescence. It's a song for the betrayal of Inuyasha and Kikyo in this story. I think it suits them! ^_^

 

 

Burned down, Burned on

Chapter 1: Going Under

 

Kikyo's long legs ached from walking for so long, non stop. She looked up and gazed at the sunset.

 

“Where is he. I must find him!” she cried running harder. She could sense the half breed nearby but saw nothing.

 

 

Now I will tell you what I've done for you

50 thousand tears I've cried

Screaming deceiving and bleeding for you

And you still won't hear me.

 

 

The thumping of her footsteps and the snapping and breaking of leaves echoed throughout the forest. She kept following the forest path hoping to see the light at the end.

 

50 years she waited. 50 years she was dead...in the ground...cold. 50 years she cried and had pain. 50 years since that horrible day. 50 years ago....it all happened 50 years ago. 50 years later...she was brought somewhat back. Now traveling...in search of her betrayal.

 

 

She had seen him a lot now. And she knew about that cheap invitation of a miko that was with him. Kagome. But that priestess...had not enough spiritual power to go against Kikyo. But that girl had the huge soul that Kikyo had once possessed. Had Kikyo had that soul back...she could overpower that girl...and get what she desired.

 

Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself

Maybe I'll wake up for once

Not tormented daily defeated by you

Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom

I'm dying again

 

Inuyasha loved that girl. And that girl loved him. What was Kikyo to him? Still buried? Still the dirt he had caused to lay in the ground? The soil and her own blood that he had caused? The scar he had marked her with 50 years ago!

I'm going under

Drowning in you

I'm falling forever

I've got to break through

I'm going under

 

Kikyo let a deep growl escape her throat. Her hands went into fists but then relaxed back into hands. She held up her hands to her face. The veins within them were lifeless. But she herself was strong...yet delicate.

 

Kikyo stopped and smirked to herself suddenly. “He's near.” she murmured as she walked faster.

 

 

I'm going under

Drowning in you

I'm falling forever

I've got to break through

I'm going under

 

Her expression was determined now. Her soft, eager brown eyes looked strait...searching. Her long, gorgeous black hair flowed in the wind as her miko outfit flapped in the strong breeze also.

 

Her other arm gripped the powerful, strong bow and arrows.

 

 

For so long she felt as though she had been falling in an abyss....of horror.... pain.... betrayal.... and so much more.

 

 

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies

So I don't know what's real and what's not

Always confusing the thoughts in my head

So I can't trust myself anymore

I'm dying again

 

Her mind started racing as she spotted a glimpse of silver hair. Kikyo smiled. “Alas...” she said but stopped. Her heart froze and her expression went to a choking gasp.

 

Inuyasha stood there...he was holding Kagome...kissing her...as he had once did to Kikyo. Kikyo's eyes burned with fire as she felt betrayal serge through her once more.

 

“Why did you betray me Inuyasha!!” Kikyo screamed. Inuyasha perked his head up to that familiar....beautiful voice.

There stood the miko he had loved...but never forgot. “Wait! Kikyo...!” Inuyasha started but Kikyo threw down an arrow and started running.

 

I'm going under

Drowning in you

I'm falling forever

I've got to break through

 

 

Kikyo's feelings were mixed and she had once again been treated brutally. Anger. Sadness. Darkness. Betrayal. So much pain. She never forgot them. All were caused by him.

 

To Kikyo's surprise she felt something so warm on her cheek...a tear. Kikyo's eyes were wet...like the day she died.

 

Kikyo kept running but knew he was following. He would reach her any minute. Tell her he still loved her and never forgot her. She was too smart to believe that. She remembered all the pain he caused her.

 

So go on and scream

Scream at me I'm so far away

I won't be broken again

I've got to breathe I can't keep going under

 

Kikyo kept up the running. She had to stop after while and took a deep breath. Her body trembled as she opened her eyes.

 

She hid in the forest as Inuyasha ran by, to her surprise not noticing her.

 

She put her hands to her eyes and started crying once he and that girl were gone. Kikyo shot up after a while to the presence of another demon, nearing her.

 

She turned sharp. No one. Turning she saw someone coming down the path. He was so handsome...with beautiful long silver white hair, golden eyes, pale skin, two red stripes on each cheek, bangs parted to reveal a crescent moon, had a boa, and wore clothes of pure royalty and armor.

 

Kikyo recognized him immediately. `Sesshoumaru.'
