Chapter 1

 

Kagome sighed as she walked through Kaede's village in the rain. She'd been walking through the rain for hours, not caring that she was soaking wet to the bone. She glanced into Kaede's hut and saw Kikyo and InuYasha kissing and whispering sweet nothings to each other.

 

Knowing that Shippo, Sango and Miroku were asleep already, Kagome found herself so alone with no one to talk to. She sighed and walked on. With each step mud covered her shoes and socks; however the girl didn't care. She just wanted to get away, to leave her now pointless life behind her.

 

The brunette sighed as she remembered what had gotten her into this mess in the first place. She'd told InuYasha she'd loved him, she gave him her heart. And what did he do? He tossed it back to her. No, he tore it into shreds and told her she didn't matter to him. That he never loved her and only saw her as an amusing companion.

 

That had hurt her so much when he sad those things to her. It had hurt her even more to watch their wedding. Kagome had felt so empty and the only thing that kept her in this time of Japan was Sango, Miroku and Shippo.

 

Why do I even exist in this damn world? Kagome asked herself. She stopped pacing for a moment to just let the rain cascade down her face, the raindrops mixing with her fresh tears. She let out a heavy sigh and kept walking, and eventually made her way west out of the village.

 

This just isn't fair… Kagome said to herself, knowing that there would be no one to hear her even is she did say anything out loud. "Why?!" She shouted, her tears blurring her vision. She cleared her eyes and stopped at what she saw. A lake, the rain drops falling onto the peaceful water. Frogs were singing on the lily pads, as if ecstatic there was rain. Fish were swimming about eating what they could find.

 

But that is not what Kagome saw. To her, the lake was a perfect grave. A perfect way to escape the hell she was in called life. Without giving another thought, Kagome's feet propelled her to the water. The water was ice cold, it felt as if a thousand needles were being jabbed into her legs as she walked into the water, but all her eyes betrayed were emptiness, nothing.

 

To all of you who cared, I'm sorry, please forgive me. It's too painful to live anymore…was Kagome's last coherent thought. She released her breath and sank, watching the light of the surface disappear as her eyelids drifted closed.

 

Little did she know, a pair of eyes had watched the entire past event.

 

Sesshoumaru had been patrolling his lands when he found her, wandering aimlessly through the outskirts of his land; her eyes unfocused and her strange green and white kimono was soaking wet.

 

What in the world is she doing so far away from the half-breed? The great youkai thought as he decided to follow the human. He gracefully flew from tree to tree in curiosity of this human; for he didn't smell any scent coming from her. It was as if her emotions were gone.

 

A slender eyebrow raised as the girl walked towards a lake, one of many in the western lands. As she walked deeper into the lake, Sesshoumaru became a little uneasy.

 

What is she thinking? Does the wench want to die? His eyebrows knitted together to form a `V' shape on his forehead. She continued to watch, not sure what to do. However, when he saw air bubbles rise to the surface, he decided to rescue the human.

 

Kagome opened her eyes and saw a blur of white above her with blurred vision. She lifted her head only to find a brain splitting pain waiting for her. She moaned in pain and her head was pushed back to the soft surface she was using as a pillow.

 

Kagome ignored whatever it was that was keeping him warm and snuggled into her pillow. Is this heaven? She grunted to herself and shook her head slightly, her eyes still clamped shut. No, heaven wouldn't even consider me.

 

"I know that you are awake wench." Kagome's eyes snapped open at the cold, deep voice. Blinking the blurriness from her eyes, Kagome looked up to see InuYasha's brother; Sesshoumaru.

 

She tried to scream, but her throat was too dry to even cough. She winced and rubbed her throat in a vain attempt to return her ability to talk.

 

This caused the demon lord to roll his eyes and drop her unceremoniously onto a futon. "Change into something more appropriate and come down to eat." He said roughly and was out the door.

 

Kagome glared daggers at the closed door and looked around the room. It was of the traditional Japanese style; rice lanterns hung from the ceiling, the door was a shoji, the walls were of rice paper, save for the wall that the window was located on-

 

Wait. A window?

 

Almost as if a light bulb went off in her head, Kagome's eyes lit up with joy when she spotted the window was wide open. She was also relieved that it was summer and the weather wasn't cold.

 

She used her left arm as a brace and rose to her feet. Taking heavy step after heavy step, it seemed like an eternity until she reached the window. She happily clutched the window sill and immediately regretted it. Electricity shot from the window to Kagome's hand.

 

She cried and pulled her hand away, it stung to the point it was shaking. Damn him! She thought, her anger visible on her face. Sighing, the teenaged girl decided to give up on the escape attempt and went to the closet.

 

With an effort, Kagome manages to open the small walk in closet's shoji door. After catching her breath, she peeked inside the closet. It was decorated with dozens of Kimono's of a large variety of color and design.

 

She marveled though them one by one until she chose a black silk kimono with pink sakura blossoms along the hem. Taking off her school uniform, she slipped the kimono with ease, enjoying the way the material slipped over her skin.

 

After she'd finished tying the red obi around her waist, she went to fold her school uniform. I wonder if he's going to eventually kill me… She thought. She shrugged and set down her pile of neatly folded clothes on her futon. Her feet guided her to the shoji door and she slid it open, coming face to face with one of Sesshoumaru's servants.

 

"Sesshoumaru-sama has sent me to guide you to the informal dining room," The servant bowed humbly to the human girl. "Please, follow me."

 

Kagome nodded and went with her guide, taking in the surroundings of the entire castle like home. There were many paintings of other youkai decorating the walls in the halls. Must either be Sesshoumaru's family or other youkai lords…

 

"We're here, my lady." The servant held open a door and Kagome walked in. She spotted Sesshoumaru sitting at a small, Japanese rectangular shaped table.

 

Her gaze remained on the youkai lord until he pointed to a spot across the table.

 

"Sit." Was his demand. Kagome obeyed and sat down at the side opposite side Sesshoumaru was seated. She folded her hands in her lap and waited, her empty gaze staring at the table.

 

I wonder if anyone cares I'm gone.

"InuYasha!" The female voice yelled.

 

InuYasha rolled his eyes and turned away from his lover Kikyo. "What the hell do you want Sango?" He yelled back.

 

The demon exterminator growled with anger and frustration. "Kagome is missing!" Sango screamed at the hanyou. InuYasha rolled his eyes, this action made Sango even angrier.

 

"So? It's not like we need the stupid wench. Kikyo can find the rest of the shards." InuYasha turned to the said girl and grinned at her. She smiled back and wrapped an arm around his neck.

 

"Yes," She said quietly. "I do not see a need for Kagome any longer."

 

By this time, both Miroku and Shippo joined Sango. Sango looked at Miroku hopefully but her look faltered when Miroku shook his head.

 

"Kagome-sama isn't in the village, I've checked with everyone and they haven't seen her." Sango groaned and leaned her head on Miroku's shoulder.

 

"What are we going to do?" She asked, groaning in both frustration and worry.

 

"I do not know my dear Sango." Miroku replied, a goofy plastered on his face.

 

Sango's eyes widened as she felt a hand on her rear end. "Hentai!" She shouted and struck Miroku across his left cheek. She huffed at him and started to walk to Kaede's hut.

 

"Maybe we should just go look for her." She suggested. Her pace quickened into a run as she grabbed her Hiraikotsu and the big yellow bag that Kagome always had things they would need in.

 

"Let's go." Said Sango, determined to find her very good friend. Miroku nodded and followed the demon exterminator. Shippo stopped to glare at InuYasha before going after Sango and Miroku.

 

InuYasha's ears twitched in frustration. "Argh, fine! I'll come with you." He spat, getting off the branch her was perched on, Kikyo following close behind him.

 

Tbc……
