InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Save The Girl ❯ Of Nightmares and Lie's ( Chapter 12 )

 

Kagome sat alone in her room as she stared at the wall aimlessly. Now that everyone was gone there were no more distractions to keep her from her horrible thoughts, her memory's, her future memory's.

 

Unknown to her, her sisters and her friend were right, she had seen something. If it was a vision, she had no idea. She could only hope that it was just some horrible image her mind made up.

 

But it kept slashing into her mind, making it bleed into her mind as it replayed it over and over again.

Kagome sat in her bed glaring at the now unconscious Inuyasha. I mean, How DARE he speak such language in front of little Shippou!!

 

She was so busy trying to burn holes into Inuyasha that she hadn't noticed that Sango had crept into the room. She was distantly aware of someone laughing and talking to her but she didn't hear a word they said as a weird yet oddly familiar sensation took hold of her.

 

Suddenly she felt and saw the room around her melt away into darkness as a new scene entered her mind.

 

She was standing in a dark forest, no light showed but the waning moon and the silently twinkling stars. She had this strange feeling, it kept building inside her until it was so strong she wanted to scream. It was horrible, the fear and sorrow that seem to consume her whole. She just new that something had gone horribly wrong.

 

Suddenly she started to run, she ran so hard and so fast that the trees were blurs. She didn't know why she was running. All she knew was that something inside her was telling her to, she just felt this odd pull that wouldn't let go, and yet it wasn't a bad pull, just an urgent one. So she let it take over and guide her until suddenly, it stopped, just before she tripped over a log and crashed to the ground into a large puddle, water flew everywhere, covering her completely but she was shocked to find that it was warm. She slowly sat up as a coppery taste entered her mouth.

 

`I must have bitten my tongue when I fell.' She thought as the scent of blood entered her nose… but wait… she was human, the only way she could ever smell blood so strongly was if there was a large amount right under her nose.

 

A chill went up her spine as she went perfectly still, to afraid of what she might find if she looked down, but she couldn't stop her self. Her curiosity was just to strong.

 

She looked down into the dark puddle below her, the moons reflection an eerie red. Suddenly everything went silent, and all she could her was the oddly loud thump of her heart.

 

Thump…thump…

 

Thump…thump…

 

“No” she whispered as her eyes slowly followed the trail of dark liquid to the log she had tripped over. Her heart started to pound rapidly as she slowly crawled towards it until she was but a foot away. Then she slowly reached her hand out and tapped it's soft flesh.

 

“Hello? Are you ok?” She asked.

 

No answer.

 

She gulped as she turned it over to come face to face with…

 

“NO!!… It can't be!” She sobbed as she pulled a bloody Sango into her arms as she hugged her cold body to her.

 

“Sango, wake up…” She whispered.

 

No answer.

 

“OH GOD SANGO!! PLEASE!!! PLEASE WAKE UP!!” She sobbed as she buried her face into her hair.

 

“Ka…go...me?” Sango coughed weakly.

 

Kagome gasped as her head shot up to stare into her younger sister's weak, pain filled eyes.

 

“Sa-Sango… Oh thank god!” She exclaimed as she smiled threw tears.

 

“Ka…gome…Rin…she's… d…d…and… Miro… Inu…Sessh… they're..gon…gone………” Sango said through a fit of coughs.

 

Kagome just stared down at her, not liking what she was hearing.

 

“Are you s-sure?” She asked shakily.

 

Sango closed her eyes and shook her head as a lone tear trickled down her face.

 

Suddenly Sango's body started convulse as she withered in pain.

 

“Sango!!!” Kagome cried. “Hold on!! Just hold on a little longer!!”

 

Sango went still as she slowly opened her eyes and smiled sadly. “I'm sorry.”

 

“For what?!” Kagome sobbed.

 

“For letting him kill them.”

 

“For letting who kill them?”

 

“Da..dy…”Sango replied and then she went limp.

 

Kagome just sat their and stared at her beloved sister's body in shock. She just couldn't believe it. One moment she was alive and the next… she was dead.

 

Kagome started to shake as she heard someone laughing at her, mocking her.

 

“This is all your fault…” The voice accused.

 

“..no..”

 

“You failed them…” It taunted.

 

“..No..”

 

“It's your fault she died!!” It cackled.

 

“No!”

 

“You killed your own sister!!”

 

“NO!!!!!” Kagome screamed as she hugged Sango's body close. “It wasn't me… I wasn't my fault… I didn't know… I didn't know!!!”

 

“You could have saved her, but you let her die…Murderer!!” It Whispered.

 

Sobs racked her body as she rocked back and forth.

 

“You killed her Kagome…”

 

“No!!”

 

“Kagome…”

 

“Leave me alone!!”

 

“Kagome…”

 

“Kagome..?” Sango called.

 

Kagome's face swung to look at a now alive and well Sango in shock, but she but she quickly shook it off. It must have been some weird dream.

 

“umm…Kagome? Are you ok?” Sango asked worriedly.

 

“yeah Sango, I'm fine.”

That horrible nightmare cut into her mind, tearing apart her hopes… her dreams. After all what hope would she have left to dream if her vision came true…NO!! It wouldn't come true, it WON'T come true. She swore it. She would not nor ever let it come true, she couldn't, he'd have to kill HER first.

 

And this is exactly why she had sent the boys after her sisters, to watch over them and to keep them safe from harm. After all, what could she really do when she could barely stand?

 

But enough of that, she had to stop thinking of such grim things, after all, Naraku was in jail…right?

 

Kagome shook these thoughts from her head and reached over and grabbed the remote control, maybe some TV could occupy her thoughts.

 

When she turned on the TV, she found that one of her favorite shows, Charmed, was on. With a smile she sat back and reached out to grab the glass bottle of Arizona green tea Inuyasha had gotten her earlier and took a sip.

 

When her thirst had been quenched, she reached over to set the bottle down on the table that was just within her reach, when her fathers face flashed onto the TV.

 

Kagome gasped in shock as she lost grip of her drink, she reached out to grab it before it hit the ground but was to late as her momentum got the best of her, causing her to crashed to the ground on top of the shattered glass.

 

CASH!!!

 

The shards of the broken bottle pierced through the skin on her face, chest and stomach causing her to scream in pain and horror as she stared at her father's image on the TV.

 

“KAGOME!!!” She heard someone cry from down the hall, but she could only lie there and stare in shocked horror at the image on the TV, while she listened to a women's voice read a report about him.

 

“The man you are all looking at is Naraku Perri, he has know been identified as the leader of the gang widely known as, The Demons. He has committed many horrible crimes against the people of Tokyo, but we were informed that yesterday, this horrible man, no, monster, attacked his very own daughters. The paramedics arrived after a frantic teenaged girl called saying that her sister wasn't breathing. Two girls were brutally beaten, one even almost died!! But sadly, Naraku had escaped and is still at large. There is an award out for any information that can help put this man behind bars…..”

 

Inuyasha burst through the door only to find Kagome's bed empty and the scent of her blood.

 

“Kagome? KAGOME WHERE ARE YOU?!!!” He panicked as he followed her scent to the other side of her bed.

 

Inuyasha gasped when he saw the girl of his affections, lying on the floor staring into space, a look of utter horror on her face. He was immediately at her side, pulling her into his arms.

 

He brushed back a lock of her hair and looked into her frightened eyes. “What's wrong Kagome?”

 

A tear slipped down her cheek as she began to shake. “He's still free…” She croaked.

 

Inuyasha looked down at her in confusion. “What are you talking about?” he asked, and as if fate it's self was trying to answer him, a shocked scream echoed behind followed by a thump.

 

“Sango!!” He heard Miroku cry as he turned to see Sango sitting on the floor, his brother holding her up as she stared at something with wide eyes.

 

Inuyasha slowly followed her gaze to the television, only to growl angrily at the image shown.

 

“Shit…” He heard Sessh curse as Shippou looked ready to panic, his eye's shifting around franticly.

 

“Whose the dumb ass that put an award out for him!?” Inuyasha growled furiously as he glared accusingly at his brother's.

 

“Ahem… I believe, I, would be that dumb ass, Inuyasha.” A familiar voice said.

 

Everyone's attention immediately shifted to the doorway to find Shinjo, the guys father, standing there. His face was a calm mask.

 

“What the fuck!!!” Inuyasha yelled.

 

“Inuyasha!! Watch your mouth, there are children in the room.” Shinjo said in a smooth tone. Inuyasha opened his mouth to say something, probably another curse, but was thankfully interrupted.

 

“Father, would you care to explain why Naraku's face is all over the news?” Sesshoumaru asked calmly.

 

A big smile came across Shinjo's face. “Why I'd love to, you see, It came to me last night when I was….”

 

“Cut the crap and get to the point, we don't want a damned story!!!” Inuyasha growled as he sensed another one of his father's “Modest” explanations.

 

“Patience is the key to happiness.” Their father sang making them all role their eye's at their father's favorite motto.

 

“Yeah, but it's not the key to time, which we don't have, by the way.” Miroku replied, knowing all to well he had just won.

 

A bid toothy grin rose onto Shinjo's face. “Quiet right m'boy, quiet right. Anyways, I figured that if I put an award out for this Naraku fellow, it would attract more attention, and with more eye's watching out for him, the more likely he is to get caught.”

 

The guy's all groaned in unison. “Dad, did you ever think of how this might impact the girls?” Sessh asked.

 

“Well of course I did!!”

 

“How?”

 

“Well the sooner we catch him, the sooner they can feel safe.” Shinjo replied.

 

“Dad, did you even ask the reporters what they were going to say?” Miroku asked.

 

“Well… uh…no…”

 

“Did you even get all the facts?”

 

“er..no”

 

“Arg… Dad, Naraku's a gang lord!!!” Inuyasha whined.

 

Shinjo's eye went wide. “What?! Why wasn't I told this before!?”

 

“Because we didn't know you would go out and start a search party while we slept!!” Inuyasha roared.

 

“Wait one minute!!” Kagome yelled as she removed her self from Inuyasha's arms to glare at him, everyone instinctively took a step back.

 

“Y-yes?”

 

“Did you know that Naraku wasn't in jail this whole time?” She asked, he voice dangerously calm.

 

“Y-yes.” Inuyasha squeaked.

 

Then Sango looked at Sesshoumaru, Miroku and Shinjo. “Were you aware of this as well?”

 

They all shook their heads, unable to speak for some reason.

 

“AND YOU DIDN'T TELL US!!!” Both Sango and Kagome screamed.

 

“Well uh…”

 

“er..we..”

 

“ummm…that is…”

 

“uhhhhhhh…”

 

Sango glared at them angrily as she tried to resist the urge to hit them, but Kagome, on the other hand, was staring at the ground, her eye's hidden behind her bangs. Thoughts were racing through her mind as her heart beat against her chest.

 

This just couldn't be happening, she had thought he was in jail, safely locked away until he was prosecuted but she was wrong. He was still free and out there somewhere and that meant that they were all still in grave danger, especially since there was an award out for him. She knew that he would stop at nothing until they were all dead, even the guys, because they were witnesses. After all, how can you be prosecuted with a crime when there was no proof and all the witnesses were dead?

 

`Damnit!' She cursed in her mind. Her life just got ten time's harder, now that she had to protect not only her sister's, but her best friends and their father, too.

 

Any ordinary person would have given up at that moment, they would have killed them selves on the spot just because they were to afraid of the pain they would have to go through when Naraku found them, but Kagome wasn't exactly your ordinary human, was she? No, She couldn't kill herself, nor did she want to, she had loved ones to protect, and nothing, not even the devil himself could stop her from keeping them safe.

 

A smirk curled onto Kagome's lips. `Watch out Naraku, Because if you try to lay one finger on them, I WILL kill you…and I will enjoy it to…'
