Loneliness of the Free Wind

Final Chapter: Severe the past, open the future… - part 1

"Lonely Free Wind breezes across the field, seeking a companion to end it's loneliness.

A Soul that is sad walks across the field, trying to find someone who could understand it's pain.

The two meet by chance at the same field they're crossing, they head to the same direction but will they walk it together or will they be alone in the end?" - By the Author of this Fic, Zelix.

The sun was rising slowly, as if slowly taking it's sweet time to start this day that would prove out to be very… interesting to say the least, to certain two individuals.

*Kagura's apartment*

Kagura grumbled as she was waking up, damn that had been one fucked up dream… she had dreamed that someone named Arcerdo had been in her apartment and had ignited feelings inside her heart (It still made her feel odd saying `my heart') that she thought could never exist and right after he had left, she had went into some kind of a painting frenzy… `Heh… just my luck that all the happy moments are either dreams or fiction…' Thought Kagura as she got out of her bed and stretched her limbs, her joints and muscles were really sore and aching for some reason but it didn't bother her, it was actually quite a pleasant feeling to feel your muscles and joints stretch, twist and make those `crack' noises as they tied up muscles and nerves found they're positions again.

She didn't even look at herself in the mirror this time, she just headed for the shower and without thinking or looking undressed herself, turned on the water and stepped into the shower. Her mind was replaying images of that weird dream, meeting that `Arcerdo' or `Arc' person in the park, them talking, then running away, him somehow sneaking into her apartment and then him on top of her, kissing her with animal like passion, igniting her desires with deep passionate kisses and his hands caressing her body, making it burn with fire and desire so hot it was unbearable… she shook her head and thought while switching the water to cold: `Dear Kami… just trying to remember that dream is making me hot! Fuck… it felt so real, so real I can even smell it… god, this is too unbearable… I feel so pathetic, I'm so desperate for company that I see dreams about someone who doesn't exist! Yet I can't stop remembering his face… his bronze like skin, that steel like hair… but most of all those eyes, deep, obsidian black pool like eyes… damn… and when the light from the sunset hit his skin, hair and eyes, it was like they were liquid that was alive, he looked like a mythological Tai-Youkai (That means a `Great Demon', like Inuyasha's father was, since she was a Youkai herself I figured that comparing someone to a Tai-Youkai was better than comparing to some god.) come to life… any artist would sell their soul if they could paint something like that…' After that thought she put her hands in front of her so she could lean on the shower wall with her face facing down.

Kagura kept thinking with tears in her eyes, she didn't want to shed them but this was really getting to her: `Damn it… I really wish it hadn't been a dream, even if I barely know that boy… no, `boy' doesn't come even close to what he looked like, he looked like something so fierce, strong and had the beauty to make Sesshoumaru, the most handsomest Tai-Youkai to ever live look like an ugly old man… (Okay, that was over the top but, well you got to admit it's a pretty good impression right?) so even if I only knew him for few hours in my dream… damn… but why would he want me? I'm just a used up, broken little creation of the greatest cocksucker to have ever walked the earth…' She could feel her heart ache with pain from that thought, she really was pathetic, wishing that a dream was real and even began to think it was real… but those eyes just looked too real to be a dream… those obsidian black eyes… black like the water dropping to the ground… `Wait a minute… black water? (Focuses her eyes) That's black alright but… how…? Wait a sec, it smells like… paint? No way…' Kagura looked at her arms with a focus for the first time today, there were paint smudges all over her arms and now she could smell them in other places as well, including in the clothes that were outside the shower room, the main colours matched too: Bronze, Steel grey, Obsidian black… `No way… it couldn't be… it's… it's… not possible…' her arms were trembling, her eyes were also quivering and she felt her mind go blank, without thinking she stopped the water and while putting on the bathrobe she used her wind abilities to create warm air around her to dry up faster, after that she bolted out of the bathroom to the living room and began to sniff the air with fast, rapid intakes of air.

When getting closer to the couch in the living room she found it, that scent… that pure smell of wildlife… it was his scent, his scent mingling with hers… her mind kept ranting that it wasn't possible, it couldn't be possible… then her mind began to flood with detailed memories of their actions and how in the end, he held her against him while whispering words that she had longed to hear from anyone for so long… then she remembered, that scent and that face… Kagura bolted to her bedroom and looked around with focused eyes, there was paint on the floor where her portraits and painting equipments were and on her desk were her sketch books were was a small pile of paper with pictures in them… she swallowed a hard lump in her throat as she slowly made her way towards the painting, her eyes were being hit by the rays of the sun so she couldn't see right away, every step she took made it feel like her feet weighted a ton… her mind was literally torn in half, one side coaxed her to look at it while the other screamed for her not to, that if it was not what she thought it was it would be too much… then, when her eyes got used to the light, her eyes focused on the painting and her breath was stolen from her, she could swear her heart skipped a beat and her mind felt like mush… she backed away from the room and somehow managed to find her way to the couch in the living room without having an accident.

As Kagura sat down, she buried her face into her hands and kept chanting: "It's not possible, it's not possible…" Then she thought: `But… how…? What…? This…? Calm down, calm down… just calm down and think, he said something about today right? What was it… oh yes, I am meeting him today, at the park at… 17:30, yeah that was the time… the clock now shows… 8:48, so I have… over 9 hours to gather myself… good, now, just think about this and… no, don't think, just… feel, thinking is not going to help at this point so just take it easy… just play it cool and I may at least have friend who understands me… although, I wish… no, don't get your hopes up…' With that, Kagura turned on the TV and watched the morning news and started to get ready for the most interesting and yet at the same time for the most scariest meeting of her life…

*At the Higurashi Residence*

Arc was wide awake, the time was 5:23 and normally he would have slept more deeply but for some reason he couldn't, he wasn't tired one bit and his body was twitching, as if wanting to run like hell until his legs gave out… those must be his Youkai instincts, the dog inside him was wild and wanted to run… run free for being kept inside a cage for so long, the feeling was stinging, burning, twitching and screaming to be fulfilled and you'd think it would be painful and uncomfortable but it wasn't, it was the other way around, he WANTED to fulfil that desire to run like the wind and the more he thought about fulfilling it the more his body kept feeling like it was on a high adrenalin rush… it made him wonder, why in the hell did he suppress and refuse his instincts and his fathers blood for so long? He could easily now do things that are mere dreams for normal humans… `Okay, slow down Arc… you just learned about all this and just began to use them, so don't get so high with all this… speaking about that, since when did I start feeling like an adrenalin freak? It's… a very good feeling in a weird way, damn… I really am changing aren't i? But… is it for good or is it for the worse?' With that, he felt another rush of adrenalin go through his body and he thought to himself that ah fuck it, let's run! And with that, he jumped down from the tree and ran, not caring where to, just ran like the wind… feeling like massive chains that had held his mind and body down had finally snapped and broken, letting the beast laying dormant inside him sprung to life and feel the freedom of the world around it… by gods… so this is what extreme sports people were always after, this incredible feel of adrenaline rushes that made you feel like you were flying… and ironically, he was not flying but the jumping he was now doing along the roof tops was very close to flying… literally, he felt like a god.

Inuyasha had awoken about 30 minutes earlier before Arc had gone into his `wild run', Kagome was still asleep and he was looking at her peaceful sleeping form, she looked so beautiful and angelic with that face, at time he wondered if this was all a dream… or that he had died in that battle against Naraku and was now in heaven… whether this was real or not, he would not give it up for anything, he had all he had ever wanted: A place to call home, people who accepted him, a strong and beautiful mate and a… interesting pup… he wondered with a smirk, what would the people of the past had thought about all this: A hanyou mated to a powerful Miko had a pup who was a quarter Youkai with Purifying powers… he bet that the people would have absolutely no idea how to see it, a man-demon with powers that would normally kill a demon on contact… not to mention Arc looked just like a human and didn't emit You-ki or the scent of a demon… now that he carefully thought about it, Arcerdo Higurashi was not a human or a Youkai… he was something more, more greater… actually, he if he was to cast away his depression and fully accept his heritage, he… would be perfect, because of his mostly human blood he could live among them without having the fear of being spotted as a hanyou, his quarter demon blood was not much but that was not a problem, Inuyasha himself knew better than that, it didn't matter if you're a full Youkai or a hanyou, if you couldn't use your demon blood properly and efficiently it was as good as useless.

His pup had only quarter of his blood but it was very strong, because of the small amount it was more thicker than normal Youkai blood and thus, if fully released there was no telling just how strong he would become… then there was his purifying powers, Kagome had been an extremely powerful Miko but even now she couldn't fully use her powers, not because she was weak but because it was just too big to handle, for a human anyway. Arc had those powers but no doubt even he has no idea how to use them, IF he can even use them… but with those powers he would not be affected by any of the Youkai sealing/barrier spells… heh, his son really could be something else but… nah, he shouldn't be pushed into something like that if he doesn't want to, after all, he wasn't the kind of person who seeks out power and battles, he's a quiet kid who is just depressed for not having anyone to understand him, he probably couldn't kill a fly even if forced to, `But that's only good at this era, because if he was battle hungry and all that, he would be in more trouble than I could count… even though my own instincts are scolding me for letting him grow weak, why should he become strong here? There are no Youkai trying to kill him or anything… although it would be good if he grew more spine but that problem has already began to solve itself…' He then stood up and walked to the window, he saw his sun sitting there on branch and he thought with a chuckle: `Keh, he's just like I used to be, when needing to think, he always climbs into that tree…'

Inuyasha was so deep in thought about his pup that he didn't hear or sense the movement behind him until he felt someone pushing against his back, he tensed for a micro second before his senses picked up who it was and instantly turned around to embrace his now still slightly sleepy mate. Kagome had woken slightly when she had felt her mate get up and after focusing enough she had seen him looking out of the window towards the Goshin-boku, they're son was most likely on it's branches again, she chuckled in her mind when remembering the time they had asked him why he slept in there sometimes, his answer had been: "You make way too much noise during the nights sometimes, it's amazing we haven't been evicted by the neighbours yet…" Kagome got up herself and walked behind her mate, still naked but who cared? It was just the two of them inside the house at the moment. She knew Inuyasha didn't pick her presence up right away since he was so deep in thought, (Now you know where Arc inherited that little problem) she embraced him from behind, letting her breasts rub against his back and it had the desired effect, he turned around and embraced her as well.

As they kept embracing one another, they both suddenly noticed Arc jumping down from the branch began to run like the wind, at first both Inuyasha and Kagome were just about ready to just get dressed and run after him in worry but before they could even begin to get dressed a scent from outside hit Inuyasha's nose, he stopped both himself and Kagome while having a knowing smirk on his face which made her feel a uneasy but she still worried about her son… that is until Inuyasha said with a warm voice: "Don't worry, he'll be back after an hour or two…" She was a bit relieved but still felt uneasy and a little scared, he must have seen the un-spoken question on her face because he continued: "His Youkai blood has been suppressed and kept under such a tight check it has literally been suffocated all this time, now that it is finally free his instincts must be burning to feel the freedom they've been denied for so long…" After hearing that one, Kagome's eyes widened with realisation and she chuckled a bit, then said: "Like a wild dog huh?" Inuyasha nodded and said: "And by his scent I'd say that it's size is equal to a Tai-Youkai… perhaps greater, so he won't be back for an hour or two… he has a massive amount of pent up energy from all those years so…" He was cut off by Kagome, she kissed him and after parting she said with a purr like voice: "So we have a few more hours alone eh?"

Inuyasha couldn't help it, that purr like voice of hers always got him hard and ready in a matter of few seconds and this one was no exception… he smirked at her and said with husky voice: "Since when did you become a temptress like this?" Her reply came out with a grin: "When I became a mate to a sex god like you." Then the next thing Inuyasha knew was that he was laying on his back at the bed while Kagome was straddling his hips and was kissing him with fire like passion, the last coherent thought he could make was: `If I'm a sex god, then it seems like I created a perfect sex goddess…' and then both were swimming in the seas of passion once again…

*About 3 hours later*

Arc landed at the branches of the Goshin-boku once again, this time he was panting heavily though… three hours of non-stop running and gliding over roof tops and streets had been really fun but now he was simply exhausted… he felt as if he didn't have single bone left in his entire body but at the same time there was a feeling of immense satisfaction and freedom coursing through his entire body and mind, he felt more confident, happy and stress free than ever before and it felt amazing! He really must have been a total idiot for not accepting his bloodline sooner… but that was also the thing that scared him, yes, it felt amazing but in his mind there was one thing that made all of it die down: Kagura… it scared him, he was scared of his own feelings… was it his true feelings or just something his Youkai side lusted? He couldn't tell, even his parents couldn't tell… maybe, maybe he should not see her since if this was just his Youkai side wanting something what would happen when it got it? She too was a Youkai but… damn it! He thought angrily at himself: `Stop it Arc! Stop thinking like that! Don't chicken out now, you've always been the timid, quiet and closed off type and because of that you've been alone without someone who would understand you… don't close yourself off now… just… shit, I can't… I want to see her and just tell her all I feel but… at the same time I'm scared shitless about seeing her! Damn… I'm so pathetic… I have started to accept the very bloodline that has scared me all this time but… I'm still me… the same, timid little brat… great… what do I do…?'

With that thought, he jumped down from the tree and walked to inside his home, as he entered, his new found sense of smell was assaulted with a heavy smell of… he groaned while saying under his breath: "Mom, dad… I'm away three hours and… christ… are they supposed to be dogs or rabbits? Then again… when it comes to dad and mom, it would make no difference what so ever… if they keep up this pace, I'll be a big brother soon… actually, that wouldn't be so bad to have a little brother… I could help him as well when it would be his time to go through the same as i… no, at this state I wouldn't be able to do it, since I don't know the answers either…" He walked into the living room and plopped down on the couch, sighing and just stared at the roof.

As he sat there, thinking about his life, he remembered all those times he was depressed and hated everyone he knew for betraying his trust and being alone with no one to understand his feelings or loneliness… then he started thinking: `And if I some day become a big brother, what would I do when my little brother/sister enters this point of life? When you realise just how hard it is to be different? What it means to be… alone…? NO! I won't let that happen… no one should go through this level of loneliness and sadness! Damn, here I am, being uncertain about myself and MY feelings when… oh my god… Kagura, she too… she's… been alone longer than I have! Damn… I'm an idiot, a real idiot… she has never had a childhood or parents, there has NEVER been anyone to show her what comfort is… she must… she must be even more uncertain about herself than I am! *sigh* Settle down Arc… you'll see her today, take it easy, step-by-step… both of us have all the time in the world… just calm down…' With that, he could feel some of his doubt and uncertainty fade away but not completely, he said to himself while closing his eyes: "Kagura, no matter… no matter how this turns out in the end, I swear… you'll never be alone again, I'll be there… I don't care as what I'll be there but I'll be there…" With that, he glanced at the clock and it read 8:45, he said to himself again after listening to the bedroom upstairs: "I have to leave in 15 minutes… and judging from my parents even breathing and the smell of… rather heavy… oh god… judging from all that, it seems like I'll have to make breakfast myself… oh well, maybe it's better this way since after a night like that they would be all over each other during the entire breakfast and THAT would seriously destroy my appetite… heh, I guess it's a blessing in disguise…"

With that, he entered the kitchen and prepared himself for a rather… interesting day that would change quite a lot of things…
