Okay this is my VERY first Inuyasha fan fiction but don't go away now! Anyway, I made a little bit of changes and put the first two chapters together, they were short individually and I just like it this way. I also changed a few things in chapter 3 (now chapter 2). I realized there was mispelled words and I fixed up the paragraphs. I'd also like to note that Kagome and Inuyasha's relationship in the begining of this is like their relationship in the begining episodes (not really attracted to each other for sure).
DISCLAIMER: Sad enough for me, I do NOT own the Inuyasha characters or anything to do with the Inuyasha world *sob*. Please review!
Chapter 1: The Hidden Threat
A young girl scrambled out of a old well at the Higurashi Shrine. Any passerby that would have witnessed this would think they've gone mad. But not to anyone at the Shrine, this was totally normal. The girl huffed as she pulled herself out of the edge of the well. She dusted her self off, which didn't do much good since she was covered in mud and grass stains, and ran towards her house. Sliding open the door the girl tip-toed into the building. 'Man I'm going to be in sooooo much trouble!' she thought to herself. The girl continued to creep through the house when...
"KAGOME!" A voice screamed out.
"EEeeeep!" Kagome screamed, heart racing, turned around to the owner of the voice. "....Um...er...Hi mom!" she said nervously.
"Don't you 'hi mom' me!" Mrs. Higurashi growled back. "You were supposed to be back 2 days ago! What have you been doing? I can't believe you missed the parent teacher conference! They are this close to suspending you!"
Kagome looked to the floor and began to shift uncomfortably. 'Well at least that would let me stay longer in the Feudal Era' Kagome thought to herself. As if reading her mind her mother added. "That's not a good thing Kagome! You could be expelled, aren't you at least concerned?"
"Of course mom! I want to pass my classes!" Lifting her head, Kagome put on a sad puppy dog face with her lip pouting out. "I promise from now on that I'll try harder!"
Mrs. Higurashi tapped her foot and glared at her daughter, then finally said, "fine, but make sure you get back when you say you are! And if you do this again than your not going back through that well!" and with that Kagome's mother stormed to the kitchen.
Kagome let out a sigh of relief an walked slowly up to her room. The fact was that she really did want to pass, but it was hard to juggle homework and searching for the Shikon shards at the same time. Making it to her room, she shut the door and looked at her clock. It was only 7:12 but she was completely dead tired. Taking off her uniform, she threw it into her laundry basket, at this rate she wasn't going to have any uniforms left! They all get ruined from her travels in the Feudal Era. Putting on comfy pajama's, Kagome snuggled under her bed covers and closed her eyes. 'I wonder what’s happening in back there...' she thought and within seconds was fast asleep.
"What shall I do?" Nakaru asked to himself aloud. "I need to find a way to defeat Inuyasha and his group once and for all. But how?" Sitting on the ground he closed his eyes trying to clear his mind of all other thoughts. "Inuyasha seems to be the leader of the group, there's no doubt about that. But what about the Kikyo reincarnation, Kagome? She seems to have some power over Inuyasha, as well as the rest of their group. Hmmm..."
Suddenly in the distance Naraku heard howling, followed by a yelp. Naraku's eyes flicked open and immediately stood up. He perked his ears listening, he could hear a commotion not too far off, but some distance away. Quietly making his through the woods, Naraku came to see a prick of light, eventually getting bigger the farther we walked. He stopped as soon as he heard voices.
"Owwwwie! Why are you such a meanie? That huuuuurt!" A young voice squealed.
"Shut up! You deserved it you stupid pest!" Another voice snapped back.
Jumping silently up a tree, Naraku got a better look at the unknown voices. It was none other than Inuyasha and Shippo. 'Perfect' he thought to himself.
Shippo rubbed his head where a rather large bump was forming. "Just because your clumsy and stepped onto my acorns, doesn't give you the right to hit me!" He shot at Inuyasha angrily.
"Does to, you little rodent! What the hell are those stupid acorns for anyways?" Inuyasha asked jumping up and down on one foot, while clutching the other.
"It's a present for Kagome! I wouldn't expect you to understand, your mean and rude to Kago..."
TWAMP
"Okay that’s enough you two!" Sango finally said after watching their little quarrel. "I'm sick of hearing you argue! Now who's making dinner?"
Inuyasha and Shippo looked at each other then back to Sango. "Uhhh.. Kagome is the one who usually cooks!" said Shippo stupidly.
"Why I will of course." Miroku announced walking and standing next to Sango. "It would be an honor." He added bowing.
"Really that’s so..."
RUB RUB
SLAP! "Miroku you lech!" Sango yelled at him. She stormed over to the other side of the fire plopping herself onto a log. "Now get to that work on dinner I'm starved!"
After several confusing minutes, Miroku was able to boil up some Ramen that Kagome left from her last visit. "Bleh! You call this food Monk? It tastes like grass!" Inuyasha coughed, spitting out the noodles from his mouth.
Miroku sighed and said "Alas, my cooking isn't as well as Kagome's."
Sango snorted and replied "that's for sure!" and then added "when is she going to be back? It's annoying having to be around with you boys. She's the only like-able person around." She was clearly still angry from what Miroku did earlier.
"Hey shut up you stupid wench!" Inuyasha hollered.
"Well she's sure a lot more like-able than you!" Shippo said as a matter of factly.
BAM
"Here we go again..." Sango muttered to herself.
Naraku had a evil, twisted smile on his face. He knew exactly what he had to do and he only needed help from one person. Dropping out of the tree Naraku hurriedly ran back the same way he came. Laughing under his breath at the wonderful plan he had in store.
Kagome lay in her bed sleeping, even though the sun already was coming over the horizon. She didn’t want to get up. But someone else did. A unknown figure entered the room quietly and made it’s way over to Kagome’s bed. It took a deep breath and yelled “KAGOME! TIME TO GET UP!”
WAM!
“Owwww! What was that for?” The little voice whined.
“What do you think Souta! You just woke me up from my dream!” Kagome mumbled back turning over in her bed. She was trying to hold onto her dream before it slipped away like all the dreams she had. “And besides, its a professional day today, there isn’t any school!”
“Yeah well Grandpa told me to wake you up so I did.”
“He didn’t say to give me a heart attack in my sleep though.”
“Kagome! Souta! Breakfast is ready come on down!” Mrs. Higurashi called up the stairs. Souta left leaving Kagome to think once more about her dream.
(Dream Flashback)
“Inuyasha! Inuyasha! Oh Inuyasha where are you?” Kagome called out desperately looking for Inuyasha. “Inuyasha!”
“Kagome! I-I’m over here!” Inuyasha’s weak voice responded. Kagome looked to where the voice was coming from and found it to be the hanyou. He was wrapped up in a tree with a single arrow in his chest. The exact way she found him the first time she ever saw him.
“W-w-what happened Inuyasha? Why are you on that tree again?” Kagome was getting confused and scared why was this happening?
“Y-you shot me against this t-tree Kagome. Why did you?” Inuyasha stuttered back his voice growing weaker by the minute.
“What!?” Kagome yelled, her heart began to pound faster. “I didn’t do it Inuyasha you have to believe me!” But then Kagome looked down to the ground and noticed a finely shaped bow in her left hand. ‘What’s that doing there? I don’t remember having it’ she thought to herself.
Inuyasha’s head feel down limply to his chest. Kagome’s eyes widened and began to fill with tears. Then a voice from behind her caught her off guard. “Good girl Kagome, you did what I could not do.” Kagome swung around to find Kikyou smiling back. “Now Inuyasha is mine.”
“NO! Y-you witch! You made me do this!” Kagome screamed back tears pouring down her face. She turned to Inuyasha and ran over to him and held his limp body close as the arrow would allow. “Inuyasha, you c-cant go! I l-l-love y-you!” She stuttered between sobs. She picked up Inuyasha’s head, leaned close
and…
(End Dream Flashback)
And that’s when Souta woke her up. ‘That was the strangest dream I ever had.’ Kagome thought to herself, ‘not to mention scary. I like Inuyasha, but love him? I don’t think so. He’s just a friend, only a friend…’?
After getting ready Kagome made her way down to the kitchen for breakfast. Her mom, grandpa and brother were all sitting around the table chowing down. She sat down and joined them, greedily eating since she hasn’t had food since lunch yesterday. Then grandpa said “Oh Kagome, I’ve been meaning to talk to you.”
“Mph-yeah” Kagome said, her voice muffled by food, “Souta told me when he ‘woke’ me up.” She shot a glare at Souta and he only stated, “well it’s not my fault you sleep like a rock.” Kagome rolled her eyes and continued eating.
“Well I can see you a bit hungry,” Grandpa chuckled “that reminds me, did I ever tell you that legend of the water nymph’s egg? You see…”
Kagome interrupted and said, “oh come on Grandpa, not another one of your stories! I’m trying to eat!”
Grandpa crossed his arms and let out an annoyed sigh and said, “well once your finished meet me in the incense room near the well.” And with that he got up and walked out of the house.
“Water nymph egg?” Kagome snorted to herself.
Mrs. Higurashi called out after him, “wait!” but he was already long gone. “He could have at least put his dishes away.” She grumbled to herself, she then said, “so Kagome, a boy called you this morning, is there something your keeping from me?” Mrs. Higurashi’s eyes twinkled, she’s always trying to get Kagome to go out on a date.
“Oh, was it Hojo?” Kagome asked in a clearly bored voice.
“Yes, he wanted you to call him back.”
Kagome snorted and shook her head at her plate. ‘That boy never can take a hint’. Her mother noticing this only smiled wider. “Oh well if you don’t want to call him you don’t. There must be some other boy. What about that Inuyasha? You seem to like him.” Mrs. Higurashi giggled.“What!” Kagome shouted spraying food from her mouth. “Me like that, that, jerk? Yeah right!”
“He’s not a jerk Kagome!” Souta piped in. “He’s brave and strong and the best hero there ever was!”
Kagome let out a sarcastic laugh. Her mom continued smiling, but mainly to herself. No matter how much Kagome denied it, Mrs. Higurashi knew there was a spark between those two. It was only a matter of time.
(Incense room)
Lighting a ‘foretelling’ incense Grandpa focused on the shapes of the smoke. Several strands of smoke twirled out of the incense stick. Eventually they came together and formed one (except for one), but soon ripped apart back into individuals. One by one the strands floated up disappearing into the air. Only three were left, two entwined, separated and then one more smoke strand vanished into the air. Leaving but only two. But then, a gust of wind blew out the two incense strands and nothing remained.
Grandpa sighed. He’s already done this plenty of times, beginning and ending the same each time. Something wasn’t right, he could feel it in his old bones. He never saw the ending which made him worry, a gust of wind always prevented him from seeing the outcome.
Grandpa heard a sliding door and foot steps come towards the building he was in. He quickly put the incense sticks away and stood up, waiting for Kagome to enter. As she did she said, “okay Grandpa, I’m here, what did you need to tell me?”
Responding Grandpa said, “well it’s more like something I wanted to show you.” He scrambled to the back room and returned with a little wooden carved box. Returning to Kagome he opened it and held up a small object. Kagome gasped, it was a ring, but it was the most beautiful one she has ever seen. The metal had a pink-ish tint and there was an amazing deep ruby red jewel in the middle with little white jewels surrounding it. Kagome looked up at her Grandpa and asked, “is…is this for me?”
Grandpa nodded his head and put the ring on Kagome’s right hand on her ring finger. It was my great-grandmothers. It’s been pasted down for generations.” But this confused Kagome and she asked, “if it’s been pasted down how come you never gave it to my mom?”
He responded shaking his head, “your mother isn’t a direct relative of mine, she is my daughter-in-law. But you, having your fathers blood, are.
“Oh.” She looked at her ring and smiled. “Thank you Grandpa! It’s beautiful, I can’t wait to show Sango!” Kagome bowed to her Grandfather and skipped out the room. Grandpa’s smile weakened as he thought of Kagome going back to the Feudal Era. ‘She’ll be all right.’ He told himself, ‘I just hope she finds out how to use that ring.’
Kagome ran up to her room, grabbed her bag which was filled with food and supplies. Ran back downstairs, bid her mom a goodbye, and walked over to the well. She had only been back a night, but she was anxious to use her weekend for the better. After she took one more look at her magnificent ring she swung her legs over the edge of the well and dropped in.
