InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Maiden of My Dreams ❯ Chapter 1: Wake Up ( Chapter 1 )

Dark. It was black, nothing was visible to him, and he was visible to nothing. He was in the dark. It was like this for what seemed to be many centuries. It got the point where he was thinking of giving up hope. Then the bit of light appeared. It was amazing; he had not seen light for along time. The warm light appeared brighter and brighter by the second, shooing the darkness away. Light. It was white and as he turned to look around, he saw her, the girl was standing at the center of it…the light. To him it seemed that she was producing this light…this warmth that maybe would lead him further out of the dark and never let it return. For a reason unknown, he actually felt that for the first time in his life he was truly...happy. Though to his displeasure, the light and his beloved maiden started to fade back into the abyss and once again dark took over. Even as the last bit of light faded and he was surround by the black again, he knew he would see her again... Some how... he knew… they were connected.... they had been for... eternity... even if her visit was over for this world... There was always the other....

 

Ë™ The Maiden of My Dreams Ë™

 

He slowly raised his eyelids, which he then regretted as he automatically snapped them back down. He had forgotten to shut the shades last night and his eyes couldn't take the exposure to light. After a few more blinks and squinting he fully took in the white ceiling he was so fondly starring at now. The blank canvas that always stared him straight back with nothing to inspire him to reach, stretch, and wake the hell up.... He decided in his half awake state that he would paint it later. He told himself that every morning… It never happened. A glance at the clock told him he was awake a few moments earlier then necessary. He thought of surrendering to becoming unconscious again but...'After that stupid dream again I'm not going to fall asleep even if I tried...'

 

With that decision made he slowly, but surly, arose from the position he was frozen into all night and worked his way out of the sheets that made his overnight cocoon. He stumbled and tripped over his own feet as he mindlessly walked to the bathroom. After 17 years of being in this house that he called home, the many twisting paths that would destroy any newcomer's mind, seemed nothing more than one straight path to this brain. His home was rather large; he could not deny that, though he really didn't care. Sesshomaru was the one who had made that choice. Sessomaru's choice also made the whole entire place have expensive looking furniture and paintings and all that kind of stuff. His brother was into that crap. Sesshomaru had explained too many times that it was all here so the other rich snobs didn't look and think that without their father the Inutaiyoukai family, or more brothers, were in the gutter. Once again, he didn't give a rat's ass... Though the flat screen HDTV was a different story...

 

 

This boy stumbled into the bathroom and managed to get himself over to the sink. He turned on the faucet so cold water shot out. He took his hands and cupped them to catch the water. He then splashed it on his face for that extra kick in the morning that was desperately needed. He reached over and grabbed a towel to wipe his face, he then took his toothbrush, added Cool Mint toothpaste and started scrubbing. As all of last night's drool got squished and spat out into the sink he glanced up to his reflection in the mirror. He could not help but stare at this reflection of what he wished was not he... As you see... He was not normal... Natural silver hair that went to his hips, no human had that. Golden amber eyes you say? Yeah, if you had colored contacts! Dog ears sitting atop his head. No way, definitely not normal. Claws? Nope. Fangs? Nu uh. Nothing was normal... He was different. A youkai. An Inuyoukai. A Hanyou actually...that was the worst part of the non-normalness that was this...thing ... Not being accepted by any of the youkai he got introduced to. They didn't say anything because Sess was there but he knew what they were thinking… Not being accepted by humans... He lived with these humans everyday under a mask. No one knew what he truly was...he didn't really intend on anyone of them knowing...

 

"Feh! I gotta stop thinking like this shit. Who gives a fuck if they don't know who you are? No one needs to know who are. I won't let anyone know who I am!" He paused after his outburst, and then the sweet soothing voice flooded his mind once again. 'I know who you are and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it... I like who you are...and I wouldn't have it any other way.' "It's that girl again..." His voice barely over a whisper "Who are you and why do you haunt me?!" And what did he hear back? She giggled then he could tell that she left. He felt an odd emotion of annoyance that she didn't respond and yet he felt like he was floating, her giggle was too sweet sounding to him. He quickly shook his head as if to clear his conscious of all the thoughts that had been taking over his mind.

 

"Now is not the time...I gotta get ready..." He closed his eyes and stood there for only a few moments before the change began to take place. His silver hair was fading as more black strands began to peek out and he felt the roots cringe as his hair became shorter. His claws were slowly shortening until they were but blunt nails. He felt as his fangs began to shrink and became flat and dare he say human. When he knew it was over he opened eyes to look in the mirror but only to find purple eyes of another boy were starring him at. Even though he knew it was himself... it seemed it was someone entirely else gazing back at him... he enjoyed this other boy very much.

 

"Well well well, someone's out of bed on time today." Sesshomaru laughed, he was standing in the middle of the doorframe. He then sighed "And I was looking forward to dragging you out of bed today, you know, the floor does need to be cleaned." He walked over to simply lean on the counter and just stare at his younger sibling. He starred back at his older brother. Sesshomaru was a full youkai. He had the same silver hair, amber eyes, claws and fangs as himself except Sesshomaru had a blue crescent moon on his forehead and purple stripes on each of his cheeks. The sign of a taiyoukai... "Inuyasha...Your human form doesn't fit you at all... Why do you enjoy being with those creatures so much anyway?" His last statement had a tone of disgust.

 

"None of your business Sessie!" Inuyasha replied in an instant.

 

"How many times have I told you? To you, my name is Sesshomaru-sama! Nothing else!" there was a bit of annoyance in his words "Do you hear me?"

 

"WHAT SESSIE? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!" Inuyasha jokingly screamed as he walked out the door back to his room to change into his uniform for school.

 

"SESSHOMARU-SAMA!!!"

 

“AT LEAST I DON'T CALL YOU FLUFFY-BOY!!!”

 

“IF YOU EVER DO I'LL KILL YOU!!!”

 

“SURE!” Sesshomaru knew that Inuyasha had rolled his eyes on that last response.

 

“You wait until the day younger brother….” Sesshomaru mumbled to himself as he shut the bathroom door to proceed with his morning ritual as well.

As Inuyasha stepped outside he looked up to see a few clouds beyond the cars whizzing by, personally he didn't understand the point of hover cars, there were double the accidents with those hunks of metals than the ones on wheels! Or that's what his history teacher said. The only places you saw those cars were in museums. According to his teacher, they had stopped making those things over 200 years ago. But it was a good thing since apparently if they had kept using those, the world would have been out of oil a lot quicker than it had been. Yes, the last barrel of natural oil had been sold off around 100 years ago to some company for over a billion dollars. Coal was out of the question too. It had been all dug up 50 years before the last bit of oil. The good thing about all the coal being gone was that without so much pollution and the fact that they had strict laws on air pollution, the atmosphere was starting to heal.

 

Inuyasha woke from his thoughts when he hit his foot on the door as he entered the school. `Man here already? I guess the path from my house to here must really be etched into my brain if I can walk here half a sleep…'

Inuyasha walked into class only a few moments before the morning bell was to ring. He made his way through the giggling whores...well that's what he called them, to the back of the room where his desk sat. They surrounded him, in front and to the side of him were the popular girls who he knew at least half of them had slept with the steroid jocks. His ex-girlfriend, the biggest whore of all, was two seats in front of him. He had broken up with Kikyo a few months or so ago but he still had some sort of feelings towards her. Well good feelings, he had many horrible, deathly feelings towards her as well but for some messed up reason he still had good feelings for her. He had no right to, he had broken up with her for good reasons. He had walked in on her with some jackass named Naraku, who hadn't exactly been on his good list anyway….

 

But the biggest whore, oh excuse him, MAN-whore was behind him, Koga, his rival. Inuyasha couldn't think of one day where they hadn't been arguing. Koga had long black hair in a high ponytail and also possessed intensely light blue eyes. Now the worst part about Koga (even though his arrogance was indeed unbearable) was that he just happened to be a wolf youkai. He would have fangs and pointy ears, but he managed to rid himself of those like Inuyasha did. The annoying part of Koga being a youkai was that at night when Inuyasha would be hopping around the rooftops of the city, he would run into the wolf and his pack of knuckleheads. Whatever arguments they were having at school could be continued with Koga's whole gang to back him up. Of course it would sometimes come down to a fist fight but Inuyasha would never beat him up too bad. Inuyasha grinned at his own thought.

 

The second Inuyasha's bottom touched the chair of his desk Koga immediately opened his mouth to start their morning routine. "So you still have the dignity to come to school with that little grin of yours even though I kicked your ass last night." Inuyasha's grin widened, he then proceeded to turn around in his seat to face Koga.

 

"Did I hit your head too hard wolf shit? Cuz' I believe I was the one who was kicking YOUR ass last night." Inuyasha smoothly replied back.

 

"Now you're the one who's lost their mind, I beat the shit out of you dog turd!"

 

"Why don't we have an instant replay!" Inuyasha's fist went flying toward Koga's face, which he could have easily blocked if not Koga knew something that Inuyasha didn't...

 

" INUYASHA!" Inuyasha's hand abruptly stopped a millimeter from Koga's face at the sound of the sensei yelling. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?" Inuyasha turned to face the sensei.

 

"Koga and I were-“ Inuyasha was going to explain that Koga was being an asshole, as usual, until he was cut off by the sensei.

 

"You know what, I don't even want to know. You get detention today for hitting Koga!" at this Koga smiled "And for that Koga, you get detention too!” The sensei then paused for a moment thinking over what he just proposed. “Hmmm... Do I really want to leave you two alone together for an hour? No you'd beat the crap out of each other... Koga, you get detention tomorrow." With that settled the sensei turned around and started writing their assignments for the day.

Inuyasha turned around to face Koga one more time "Suck it wolf shit." He then quickly gave Koga a rude gesture and turned around ignoring the pissed off wolf for the rest of the day.
