InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Shadow ❯ Shadow ( One-Shot )

Shadow

A/N- I really wanted to make a song fic so that's why I made this. I was going to make it after the fanfic I'm making after the one I'm making now, but I didn't want to make a new chapter yet for Doomsday Journey, since I just posted it a few hours ago. I hope you enjoy this song fic and it's a one shot. Also I didn't put the demon in like Rumiko did at the beginning of Inuyasha.

Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha or the song Shadow, which is sung by Ashlee Simpson.

Summary- This is song fic showing how Inuyasha feels about his life and how he feels after he meets Kagome.

This is an AU- Alternate Universe.

Shadow

I was six years old, when my parents went away

I was stuck inside, a broken life, I couldn't wish away

She was beautiful, she had everything and more

My escape was hiding out, running for the door.

I'm 17 now and when I was 6 my parents died. Ever since then I was depressed and kept my feelings to myself. I never told anyone anything, so I spent my days mopping around and sitting in dark places. One of those places was the dusty and torn apart house that my parents, Sesshoumaru, and me lived in.

The other day I was walking through Inuyasha Forest. A girl was there and she was the most beautiful girl I ever met. She hesitated, but still came up to me. She introduced herself and I asked her what she was doing here.

"Hi, I'm Kagome."

"What are you doing here?"

"I was just eating breakfast with my mom and grandpa, when my brother Souta ran into the room saying my cat Buyo was in the Shrine. So I went up to the Shrine to get him, but then I fell into the well and ended up here." I looked at her. She had everything I wanted. I showed her where the village was, but before she could say anything I ran away and hid in the old house again.

Somebody listen please

It used to be so hard being me

Livin' in the shadow of someone else's dream

Tryin' to find a hand to hold

But every touch felt cold to me

Livin' in the nightmare

Never ended sleep

Now that I am wide awake

I changed it finally free

Don't feel so real for me

When I got out of the house Kagome was sitting on the steps that were still there, "What are you doing here, wench?" I asked as I sat next to her.

Kagome glared at me, "Kaede told me about your parents." I was about to stand up, before she touched my hand. It felt different then anyone else's hand too.

"I want you to tell me now." So I told her my story and now I felt different. It wasn't going to be like what it usually felt like to me.

All the days collided

One less perfect than the next

I was stuck inside someone else's life

And always second best

Oh I love you now

Cause now I realize

That It's safe outside, to come alive

And my identity

So If your listening

There's so much more to me you haven't seen

Kagome at first made me feel worse than I ever felt when she mentioned her family and I told her that. I also told her my brother Sesshoumaru was the favorite of the two of us. After I finally told her about my life I started feeling different about her than any other person I had met. She made me feel better about myself and I didn't feel as sad as I used too.

Livin in the shadow of someone else's dream

Tryin to find a hand to hold

But every touch felt cold to me

Livin in the nightmare

Never ended sleep

Now that I am wide awake

I can finally be

Don't feel so real

Mother, sister, father, sister, mother

Everything's cool now

Mother, sister, father, sister, mother

Everything's cool now

Oh my life is good

I got more than anyone should

Oh my life is good

And the past is in the past

I felt better about myself. I love Kagome and now I live in the present not the past. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't feel like this. Thank you, Kagome!

I was livin' in the shadow of someone else's dream

Trying to find a hand to hold

But every touch felt cold to me

I'm livin in a new day

I'm livin it for me

And now that I am wide awake

I can finally be

Don't feel so real for me

Don't feel so real don't feel so real for me

I have a new life. I found someone whom I love. And I'm living in my own dream, not someone else's.

Livin in, livin in, livin in...The shadow

Livin in, livin in, livin in...A new day
