Chapter 3 :

Run … and found.

 

Kagome ran. She ran like never she had before. Like if the Devil himself was behind her, trying to catch her.

The young princess ran in the secret passage, underground, during at least half an hour. She fell a couple of times, since she didn't take a torch with her. She diriged herself only by keeping one hand against one of the moist and dirty walls of the passage. She is in complete darkness but the fear of being caught overpowered the one to be all alone, in the dark.

May be it is only half an hour but for the young woman-child it seems like an eternity that she is underground before she saw the moon's light of the outside appear and getting out in the middle of the woods.

 

She walked a little and the curiosity was too much for her, and she turn around to look at where she came from. She can see the glow from the fire coming from the palace of the Lord of the South,…from her home.

A single tear run down her cheek before she rapidly brush it, a spark of something difficult to definite appear in her eyes. Courage, determination, may be. But one through came in her mind : I will not decieve them.

 

The night is still young, few hours before the sunrise and the air of the woods is cold which made the young one shiver uncontrollable. She closed her coat more close to her to try to fight the cold but most importantly, to hide her clothes. Her nightgown is pure white and could be too easily repere in the woods.

 

She moved her bag on her shoulders and start to take a determinate walk but froze. Her eyes open wide and she groan pitifully

 

" Oh great ! And where is the West in the first place !?! "

 

She tries to calm down and forget that she is alone, in the middle of the woods, and in the middle of the night and of course without forgot that people must be trying to find her and kill her ! Ok, it is a lot to forget, but she manages to put it aside after taking several deep breathes.

 

She starts to reflect and look around her and the sky and the position of her castle. She takes another deep breath and start to walk in one direction.

 

" That must be that way. I have to walk away from here. " She whispered to herself.

 

She walks like that during hours before take a break. At this moment, the sun rise behind the hills and she sit down at the feet of a big tree. But after reflection, she tries to climb in it to profit of the leaves to be hid.

When she settles in the tree, on the higher branch she could, tired like she is, with her bag on her lap. She starts to think back at the event of the night.

 

In a few hours, her life changed dramatically. She passes from a princess living in a castle to…A nobody sleeping in a tree.

Depressing.

This could have been funny if it was so sad.

 

Just before closing her eyes, she tried to find who could be the monster who did that to her Father.

Her Father is, or was (she sobs) liked by everyone. She sighs.

 

She closes her eyes and try to make herself comfortable in the tree. But the moment her eyes closed, a sinister voice came back from her memories.

"You will be mine, and no one will be able to change that. "

 

She shivers and her eyes shoot open, she whispers.

" Can it be…him ? "

Kagome woke up a few hours later by the sun. Between the leaves, the sun succeed to touch her face and her eyes making it impossible to her to ignore it. She rises a little a take a more sitting position, and she stop to move. She tries to listen a maximum around her to see if someone is here. But she didn't hear anything or feel anything, so she decides to come back on the ground.

 

She isn't in the better conditions. Who is the bakka who said i twas comfortable to sleep in a tree ?!

She groans and try to ease her tired muscles.

She put her bag right back on her shoulders. When she moves, she feels something really cold directly in contact with her skin. She discovers that by moving, her necklace turn around and the face which stay in the cold all the night was now in direct contact with the sensible skin of her breast. She shivers a little, and remove it.

 

She looks at it and moan again at her own stupidity. She didn't activate it when she leaves the palace. How can she be so stupid ?

In fact, the necklace is not just the symbol of the South but possess also magical power which permit to hide one of the most important secrets of the royal family of the South : The young heiress possesses spirituals powers.

 

How could she be so stupid ? If the one who attack the castle are youkais, they must be laughing at her now and following her like the Little Poucet who left pieces of bread !

She sighs. She could hit herself right now. Stupid stupid.

At least, there is little possibility that they know they are following the Princess since almost nobody, besides some Mikos and people of confident, know of this fact.

 

She chants a little spell. The necklace, with herself, start to light a little gentle pink during a few seconds before desperate.

Now at least, they couldn't follow her aura now.

 

She sighs again.

She eases her tired muscles again. Stupid tree ! Were all that pass her mind with the fact th at she is cold, and she is really angry .

 

She takes a look around her and resume her walk toward the West, or she hope it is the West.

 

With luck, during the day, she came across of bushes with buries. She eats some and put the rest in a cloth, in her pocket for later.

 

But with bad luck, in the end of the evening, the rain start to fall.

Since there is nothing more than a lot of rain, she sat under a tree to wait the end of the Strom.

 

When that stop, she resumes her walk. She is all wet, but she still walks to try to warm herself up and forget the cold.

 

She thinks about the people of her castle. How are they ? Did the guard and the servants who helped her are well ?

But she had something really heavy on her heart. His Father. There is a big chance, if not the only probability, that her Father is now dead.

Plus, the fact to have to run away and to leave at their destiny all of them behind make her ill and eat her guts.

 

The day after was the same.

 

When she couldn't walk anymore, completely tired, she sits down under a tree and cry until falling asleep.

The day after, someone walk soundlessly in the woods like if he was flying, not even the noise of leaves when he put his feet on it. Like a ghost who patrols the woods.

 

Then, he stops and smells the air around him. He looks around. There is not mistake, he can smell someone.

 

He resumes is walk, and come directly towards the tree where the sleepy princess rest.

He kneels in front of her and raise a crawled hand to shook lightly her shoulder.

 

For a moment, there is none answer…but he insists. She finishes by waking up in a start and came face to face with a `man' who look at her directly in the eyes.

She ' eeped ' and jump on her feet to run away but her legs are too tired, and they didn't support her weigh, she falls.

 

She closes her eyes and prepare herself for the impact with the soil…But that never came.

She opens her eyes and came face to face again with this man who look at her, one of his arm supporting her around the waist.

At this moment, she really looks at him. His face is cold, even his eyes, but there in this beautiful golden eyes, she saw a glow of concern.

 

She is in trans with this so uncommon eyes. Vaguely, she saw that he had marking on his face and white or silver hair. But the charm disappears when she heard his deep voice.

 

" Are you alright, woman ? "

 

She gulps before answer, her cheek lightly pink.

" H-hai… demo can you let go of me?"

 

He releases her immediately. She recompose herself and after a deep breath, had the courage to look back at him.

At this moment, she saw that he is a demon. How could she not have feel that ? She is a pathetic excuse of a Miko.

 

She parts from me rapidly. Fear coming in waves from her.

 

" You don't have to fear me, girl, I will not hurt you. "
