Chapter 4: New Place
Hitome awoke by the smell of fruits and vegetables. Mostly fruits. She reached up and picked a peach. She brought it tot her mouth without opening her eyes and ate. It was so sweet and succulent. She wanted to eat them all but that would be so very wrong to the owner of these delicious fruits. Then, she opened her eyes to see a green meadow near a shack. ' How did I get here?' she thought. She looked around at the once beautiful trees and saw magnificent trees. Then, from a distance, she heard a voice. It sounded all and cracked.
" Are you ok?" yelled an old lady. She turned around and sat up. She rubbed her forehead.
" I'm ok, but where am I?" she asked while looking around again.
" You're in Japan." She looked at the old lady who had her eyes closed. she pointed her finger to the ground.
" This is Japan." The old lady nodded and opened her eyes. They bugged out. ' What's her problem?' thought Hitome. ' What is she staring at?' Then, the old lady backed away towards the shack and ran. " Wait!" The old lady ran out the shack with a broom, yelling curses at Hitome.
" Get out of here, you beast!"
" Huh?!" Hitome ducked from a swing from the broom the old lady held in her hand. " What are you talking about?!"
" Leave your curses to someone else!"
" I don't understand." Then, Hitome heard a voice in her head,' I hate when demons pretend they don't understand what humans are talking about.'
I was thinking I was losing my mind when I heard that voice in my head. I already knew that the voice belonged to the old lady.
" What demon are you talking about?" I pleaded more than asked. Then, I heard the old lady's voice again,' Stupid demon. Why doesn't she just leave me alone?!' " What are you talking about?!"
" Stop reading my mind, you beast!" she cried before she hit me again. I backed up and felt that I was at the ledge of something. " Stupid, ugly, creature!" I turned around to see a river. I saw what creature she was talking about. She was talking about me. I felt a tear come my eye. When I saw myself, I had three eyes: 2 regular ones and a demonic one on my forehead. While I was looking at myself, the old lady pushed me in into the water.
" I guess I deserved that." I was carried off down the river towards the rapids. I struggled to get to shore. Then, I completely went under water and slowly started to drown. The only thing I remembered before a white started flashing before my eyes was a glint of red coming under water.
I heard some voices screaming. I guessed the old on that farm was in trouble. The first thing that came to mind was that a battle was attacking her so I ran over.
" I took care of it," she said, proud of herself.
" You?" I said, not believing her.
" Yes I did. She fell into the river." I shrugged and walked towards the river.
" No sign of any demon." I started to cross the bridge when Kagome called me.
" Inuyasha!" she yelled.
" What, wench?"
" A girl fell into the water! Hurry and save her before she drowns!" I acted quickly and jumped in. She was floating at first, but then fell completely under water because of the current. I got to her right before her head hit a rock. When we were on shore, she didn't open her eyes and she wasn't breathing.
" Why isn't she breathing, Kagome?" Kagome was gazing at the girl. " Kagome?"
" I know her." She just kept turning the girl's head side to side. " This is Hitome." She was shocked at first be it slowly turned into confusion. " But how did she get into the Feudal era?" She started searching for something that might have wielded her into the past. Then, she saw something shine in Hitome's chest. " A shikon shard, no...many shikon shards." She started changing her expression until she blurted out, " She's the girls reincarnation!"
" What?!"
" Remember that girl who committed suicide?"
" Yeah?"
" This is her reincarnation." Then, Kagome realized that the girl was half dead. " OMG! I forgot that she was still half dead. Inuyasha, do CPR."
" Do what?"
" That thing I taught you an hour ago." I nodded and put my lips on Hitome's. I breathed my breath into her lungs. Kagome left while I did this. She said something about making herbal tea. ' She tastes sweet like the nectar of a fruit,' I thought, while doing the thing. I started to get lost in what I was doing and started to kiss her more than save her. Then, I felt her move and released from the kiss and watched her spit out water.
" Are you ok?" She stared at me. She was so beautiful that it was unreal. I started to move closer when she got up and ran. " Wait!" Kagome came back and started at me.
" What did you do?" I turned around and stared at her with a" you know what I did" look.
" What do you think I did, bitch?" She gasped.
" You scared her off, didn't you?"
" Well, I guess I did, but not on pur.."
" I knew it! I knew I should of stayed here to keep an eye on you. Now she's run off some where thanks to you, Mr. Person who has to scare everyone. Ugh. She's probably lost somewhere in the forest trying to figure out what part of Japan she's in or whether she's still in Japan. How are we supposed to find her without a clue to where she is?"
" Uh, maybe you forgot I was here? Hello? Hanyou here. Half- dog, Half- Human. I have a nose that can track down something or someone very far away by just sniffing."
" Oh, yeah. Sorry about that."
" No you're not." I put my nose to the ground and smelt the girls fruity scent.
I awoke to the face of a demon. He looked human, yet he had white hair and canine fangs. I was scared, but I wasn't showing it. I kept thinking, ' He's going to eat me. He's going to eat me. He's going to eat me.' I read in stories that demons hate humans and ate them just get their nutrients or used them as slaves. I also read that they captured beautiful women, young or old, and raped them just to have pleasure.
" Are you ok?" he asked. I was to shocked to say anything. He looked human, but when I saw those ears on top of his head, it was either he was a demon or those ears were fake. When I was at the library one day looking up Japanese history, I saw pictures of demons and they were either very ugly with scaly skin or looked human, but had stripes on their faces. But this demon didn't have any stripes and he wasn't hideous either. Actually, he was kinda cute, but I didn't take any chances and ran. " Wait!" I kept running until I came to a clearing and sat on a rock in the middle. I looked at reflecting rock and saw my face. It didn't have a third eye anymore. I remembered that old lady hitting me. I shook off the feeling and stared at the enormous trees. I felt like climbing them and I did. I stood up, walked to the tallest tree and climbed, but fell back. 'Man,' I thought. ' I wish I could just jump from branch to branch until I've reached the top and can see over all the trees.' I jumped lightly. I looked down and I wasn't touching the floor. I acted quickly and grabbed a branch. ' How did I do that?' Then, I jumped again and again without reaching for a branch to hang on to. I smiled. When I reached the top, I saw a beautiful sunset. I sat on the branch and stared wishing that I could just fly into it. A small breeze pushed my hair back and cooled me off. Then, someone called my name.
" Hitome," the person said. It sounded like Kagome, but what was Kagome doing here? I looked down and saw Kagome and someone else. When the person came into view, it was that demon. I acted quickly and jumped from branch to branch trying to get away. " Inuyasha! I see shards in the trees!"
" What?!" he said. " The girl's under attack?"
" No. She has Jewel shards inside her. Therefore, I know where she is." She looked up and pointed right at me. " There!" The demon jumped into the tree and I started to run, well, jump.
" Kagome! She's not in this.." He spotted me. " Hey!" I jumped away as quick as I could with him hot on my trail. I jumped until my feet ached and I collapsed. ' Well,' I thought,' I guess this is the part where I defend myself.' I got into my stance of the " praying mantis." He jumped down and looked for me. " Hey! I know you're here. I don't want to hurt you. I just want to help. So, can you come out?" I didn't move. He was coming closer and was almost at the spot that I wanted him to be in. ' Just a little closer.' Then, he stopped right in the spot where I wanted him to stop. " Look! I don't want to hurt you. I just want to help." Then, I came out of the leaves and kicked him from behind. He winced. " What was that for?!"
" For being a demon," I answered and kicked him again, but he blocked. Actually, he blocked my every move.
" You're pretty good for a human."
" I practice everyday so that if I ever met a demon, I would be able to kill it with pride or die with honor." Then, I took my chances and kicked him in the nuts. He fell on a branch, holding onto them like his life depended on them.
" That's it, bitch. I was playing with you the hold time, but now you just pissed me off!" He took out a sword which got bigger and looked like a fang. He ran towards me with it and used I guess every attack he knew before he pinned me to the tree.
" I wouldn't do that if I were you." What was I saying?! Of course he would of done it.
" Do what? Choke you until you are withering beneath me? I think I would the way I am right now." I felt my forehead start to open.
" Really, I wouldn't do that..."
" I said Shut up, Bitch!" Then, with every word he said, my forehead kept inching open. He kept insulting me while I kept warning him until he said, " SHUT the HELL UP, FREAK!" I snapped.
" I...Am...Not...A...FREAK!!" Then, my forehead shot open and blasted a red laser at him. He fell backwards into the tree. I slid my back against the other side and cried. I cried the same way I did at the sleep over.
She made me so angry, that it felt like Tetsusaiga couldn't control my demon side from slipping out. I took out Tetsusaiga and tried every attack I knew and I would've hit her if she wasn't so damn fast. Finally, after a long time of chasing, I pinned her to the tree.
" I wouldn't do that if I were you," she said. I started to talk about her even though I didn't know a damn thing about her. She kept repeating that stupid sentence until I called her freak and she yelled," I am not a Freak," and blasted a red light from a thing on her forehead. It looked like an eye from where I was standing. I flew back into the tree and was unconscious for 5 minutes. All I heard was a muffled cry. Once I gained consciousness, I saw her curled up into a ball, leaning against the tree. I walked over and was very close to touching her when an arrow hit the tree, pinning her in the process. I turned around to see...
" Kikyou.." I said. She readied her arrow again, aiming at the girl and not me. I blocked her aim.
" Stand aside, Inuyasha," she said. " I'll kill you some other time." She pulled back the arrow.
" Kikyou, what is your purpose of killing her?"
" Everything." She shot the arrow, but missed.
" Why do you say that?"
" She'll take that Shikon no Tama from me once it's completed. She is the only one I've feared in this world."
" Huh?"
" Look at her." I looked at those mesmerizing violet eyes and took note of her face, not daring to look down. She was so beautiful in the tree, in front of a sunset, heck, she was beautiful anywhere. Thing is, she looked so familiar. " Look familiar?"
" Yeah, but I can't name the person she looks like."
“ She’s Midoriko’s daughter’s reincarnation. The girl who died in the village was Midoriko’s real daughter. She killed herself because she was afraid of my wrath and she wanted to get away from all the men in the village cause they would constantly ask her to bare them a child, including your monk friend. He’s asked her the most.” I stared into the girls eyes. “I am only here to put her out of her misery.” She readied her arrow again.
“ NO!” I went in front of the girl again.
“ Let her do what she has to do,” said a quiet voice from behind me. I turned around to see that the girl was unpinned and unharmed.
“ What?”
“ If she wants me dead, so let it be.”
“ No! I won’t let you die like this!” I kept blocking her from Kikyou. Then, I took out Tetsusaiga.
“ Inuyasha,” said Kikyou. “You really don’t understand. She is a threat to us all because...”
“ She’s Midoriko’s offspring’s reincarnation? How is that being a threat?”
“ Look. You’re a demon, well, hanyou, right?”
“ Yeah?”
“ And, well, she’s not really a full youkai nor all human, correct?”
“ Well, I guess so.”
“ Not all demons can touch my arrows, right?”
“ True...” I widen my eyes. “You mean, she’s a...”
“ Half miko. She can use my arrows against me and she could kill you.”
“ How can she kill me?”
“ She has the Eye.”
“ So?”
“ No, The Eye. The eye that can kill anyone with a glare, can read your deepest thoughts, and can even kill you from the inside out. That Eye.”
“ But how?”
“ The incarnation’s father was the carrier of the eye until Midoriko gave birth and so, it was passed down to her. And now that she’s dead and her reincarnation is alive, the reincarnation has the eye now.” I looked at Kikyou, then the girl, then back to Kikyou. “ You know what, I’m wasting my time. You win this time Inuyasha, but next time won’t be so easy. I will win next time. Until then, Inuyasha.” And she left.
“ Kikyou, a real pain in the ass.” I turned to see what the girl was doing and saw her trying to get out of the tree. I smiled and swooped down and stood on a branch next to where she was. “Need help?” I was expecting an annoyed face, but instead, I got a half smile. I offered my hand to her and she took it as I help her onto my back. We got to the ground in 2 sec. And landed where Kagome was, too.
“ What happened?” she asked.
“ O, we went into the closest village and bought some fruits and vegetables. What do you think happened?” I heard the girl giggle on my back.
“ Well, sorry for being concerned.” We kept arguing until we reached camp. Then, I didn’t feel the girl’s presence anymore. I turned and sensed that she was hiding behind the tree.
“ What’s wrong?” She looked terrified. All she did was jump into the tree when footsteps were heard.
“ Inuyasha, what are you doing?” asked Shippou.
“ I was sharpening my claws.”
“ Really?”
“ No! I was talking to someone.”
“ Well, where’s this person? Did he disappear?”
“ No. She jumped into the tree because she was scared of you.”
“ Someone was actually scared of me? COOL!!” I rolled my eyes. “Do you think you could get her to come down?”
“ I don’t know.” I jumped up into the tree and to the branch that she was at. “What’s wrong?” She was dangerously shaking again. I reached my hand and actually got the chance to touch her when she jerked away. “I promise I won’t hurt you.” I reached out again and touched her. She looked up at me with those amazing eyes again. I felt like when I looked at them, I was swimming in the best water known to man. I felt like drowning in them.
Well, when I heard footsteps, I jumped up into the tree and stayed there for a while. I heard a conversation and stiffened when someone came into the tree. It was that demon again.
“ What’s wrong?” he asked. I started shaking. He reached for me with his clawed hands and I panicked. I jerked away. “I promise I won’t hurt you.” He reached out again and I allowed him to touch me. His hand was amazingly soft. I looked into his golden eyes. They looked like the sun shining it’s everlasting light. Those eyes made me give in. I leaned into him and surprisingly, he held me close as I cried on his shoulder.
“ I’m sorry,” I said. I felt his head move.
“ For what?”
“ Attacking you earlier. I thought you were a vicious, blood thirsty demon. I had to defend myself. I’m sorry if I hurt you.”
“ It’s ok. I’ve endured worse.”
“ It’s just... I hate it when people call me a freak. It just hits me hard.”
“ I understand.” Then, unconsciously, my 3rd eye read his thoughts which was a flashback to when he was younger and humans and demons rejected him because he was a half of them. I winced as I developed a headache. I pulled away and held my head. “ What’s wrong?”
“ Stop...ugh thinking.” He looked at me confused and then looked like he understood and stopped thinking.
“ Sorry. I forgot that you had the Eye.”
“ The Eye? What’s that?”
“ You mean, you don’t know what it is?”
“ I wouldn’t be asking you if I did.”
“ Well, The Eye is a gift only powerful demons receive. It has the power to control, destroy, and manipulate. You’re a reincarnation of the girl who had it first. She died because she was afraid of what might happen to her. Now, you have it.” I sat there looking at the branch. “Understand?”
“ So, I’m valuable, right?” He nodded.
“ Inuyasha!” yelled Kagome. “Dinner!” I looked down at Kagome, as did he. He was ready to jump down when he looked a me.
“ Come on,” he said.
“ Nah. I think I’ll just watch the stars.” He shrugged.
“ Suite yourself.” And he was off. I looked at the stars as they started to appear, one by one.
“ Hitome?” said a voice. I looked down and saw Kagome with a plate of food. “You must be hungry.” I nodded. “Why don’t you come down?” I shook my head. “Why not?”
“ Those people might stare at me, especially the monk.” She giggled.
“ Fine. Well, here.” I took the plate and thanked her. I took out my personally chopsticks and slowly at the delicious food, savoring every bite.
After I passed the food up to Hitome, everyone, except Inuyasha stared at me as I walked back.
“ Who were you talking to?” asked Sango. I told them the whole story about who I was talking to.
“ So,” said Miroku, “Hitome is the reincarnation of the girl who died, correct?”
“ Yeah,” I said.
“ Well, why doesn’t she want to come down from that tree?” asked Shippou.
“ She’s very shy, especially around big groups.”
“ This isn’t a big group. It’s just 8 people.”
“ Well, she’s only used to groups of like 2 or 3 people.” Shippou walked to the tree where Hitome was.
“ Where is she?” I got up an showed him where she was. “Can you give me a boost?” I lifted him up. “Hi. My name is Shippou and I’m a Kitsune.” Hitome looked scared and curled up into a tighter ball. “I won’t hurt you. I promise.” She stared at Shippou before she gave him a smile.
“ My name is Hitome,” she said, sweetly.
“ Can you come down? Everyone would like to meet you.” She looked up at camp before she stepped down and walked to the group. Miroku was the first to stand up and walk towards her. She smiled at Shippou, then Miroku. Shippou jumped from my hands onto her shoulder and pointed everyone out. “That’s Kaede...”
“ Hello, young miko,” she said. Hitome bowed.
“ That’s Sango...”
“ Hi!” she said. Hitome waved with a smile.
“ That’s Miroku...” Miroku walked over to her and kissed her hand. She blushed.
“ Nice to meet you,” he said.
“ And that’s Inuyasha. He usually protects us.”
“ We’ve already met,” he said.
“ Nice to meet you all,” she said.
Kikyou: What did you call me Inuyasha?
