InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Her Escape ❯ The hole in the wall ( Chapter 1 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

`Inu Yasha you must promise to come visit me, please?' As he gazed

out at the sea, Inu Yasha was remembering memories from a time long past.

As the port of the capital, Gine, crept closer and closer he remembered the

promise he made to his mother all those years ago. Even though she had died

in Convear, his homeland, she was brought across the Laera sea to be buried

in her homeland, from which he was forbidden. At the memories he growled

deep in his throat ` Do those humans actually think that it would keep me

from visiting her grave? Keh. Fools.' He chuckled darkly as he finally

turned his thoughts from his mother to the ocean. ` The ocean sure is cal,

must be a storm comin' in a couple of days' " Yo Inu we're gettin close to

Gine! Sure you don't wanna turn `round?" a man with a small ponytail

questioned. "Oi, Miroku, didn't I say we're goin?" at Miroku's nod he

continued, " Then keep heading that way okay?" he shouted at him as he

walked away from the rail. " And I KNOW your lookin forward to the

women." He stated with a smirk. While grinning sheepishly Miroku

answered, " Now what ever gave you that idea?"

At the window of the highest tower in the palace, a raven haired

beauty stares longingly at the sea. ` I only used my powers once' thought the

lovely lady. `Okay, so it was more than once, but what's the harm?'

Remembering the gaping hole in the entry hall's wall, she winced. " Oh

yeah" she said softly, forgetting the rule that called for silence. Recalling the

lecture she had received from her stepmother, Kikyo, she winced again and

returned her thoughts and gaze to the sea. ` That's my chance to escape,

but…I don't know if I'll take the risk if the chance ever appears. Still I think

I should t-` "Princess Kagome!" yelled a voice from far away. " Sango-

chan!" the raven haired beauty known as Princess Kagome yelled in

response. Kagome turned from her spot at the window to look at the only

door in the room. A few seconds later another beauty burst into the room.

After regaining composure, from sprinting up the stairs the one Kagome

called Sango bowed low as Kagome curtsied deeply. Before they had fully

straightened they had launched themselves at each other to hug the other

fiercely. As they finally stepped away from each other they fixed the mess

the reunion had caused, fixing hair and clothes. " Kagome-chan, exciting

news!" Sango exclaimed when they had finished. " My step-mother is letting

me out of my punishment early?" Kagome asked trying to mask the hope in

her eyes and voice. As Sango shook her head, the little hope she had left

disintegrated. " Not so lucky, sorry." Sango gravely replied. Lightening her

voice for Kagome's sake she then said, " But the `Tama' is pulling into

port." Kagome came out of her mood with this news, " The all men and

youkai crew?" she asked excitedly. Then her excitement faded into wander

as she asked another question, " But Sango-chan, aren't they pirates?"

Inu Yasha could tell as pulled into the harbor that a group of king's

men were going to meet them at the dock. " Hey men, looks like they sent a

welcoming committee " he shouted above the noise that was carrying across

the water from the docks. " Didn't know we were soooooooo important."

Miroku chirped cheerfully. " Maybe we're important enough to see the king

I just hope its not from ` the block', if you know what I mean" Kouga said

very slowly, each word dripping with sarcasm. Miroku whispered dreamily

in reply, " I hear the princess is a beauty with no rival." The crew sighed

deeply. Inu Yasha, disgusted with them all stated loudly, " She's probably a

spoiled little princess who can't even walk on her own." "Inu Yasha you

shouldn't judge someone you haven't met, let alone gotten to know."

Miroku pointed out seriously. " Yeah, Yeah, whatever you say Ol' Wise

One." Inu Yasha replied with false admiration. "Now men, mind your

posts" he said with an evil smirk. " Gotta keep everything in tip-top shape

for the King of our enemies!" With loud whooping yells the crew hurried to

their stations.

Meanwhile, the princess was thinking a mile a minute, but one thought kept

turning up ` This is my chance to escape. I don't know if another chance will

come along; I better take it.' Sighing mightily Kagome turned to Sango, "

Sango-chan, you have to help me get out of the palace" she stated, not

wanting to beat around the bush.
