Spirited Away Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Soul of a Dragon ❯ Is that them? ( Chapter 5 )

Disclaimer: I do not own Spirited Away or Inuyasha, I a merely twisting them into my own sick plot. Please enjoy! ~^-^~ Ooh-n Spirited Away spoilers, so beware. If you leave your email address, I will email you a picture of Haku. If you can translate Suru into English, I will give you a part in my story. Suru is a name. *You ought to know this-look at my name…* Sorry bout the delay. Here's a treat for going back to school. WAY longer than usual.

"You heard me. Now get back to work," Haku said. He stalked away.

"Come on," Fox said, walking away. She led Suru into a hall. It was dark and when they got to the middle of the hall, Fox spun around. "I can't believe you did it! You're such an idiot. You really had me worried ya know!" she said. Suru frowned. "Hey, what's the matter?" Fox bent down to her level.

"I don't feel good," Suru said.

Fox felt her forehead. "Oh dear," she said. "Here, take this medicine and some food. Then off to bed," she said. She pulled out some medicine form her shirt and made Suru eat it. She then told Suru to get on her back. Once Suru was secure, Fox carried her to the room they slept in. It was a small room with two beds in it. She laid Suru down in a red bed and put a wet cloth on her forehead. "Here," she said. She handed Suru some soup and took it away when she was finished. "Good night Suru."

"Night," Suru mumbled out.

~~~

Haku walked the halls quietly. He could hear Kagome crying in her room. He hoped she understood why he was acting so cold and mean to her. He opened the shoji door (?) and stepped inside. The floor was cool on his feet and it felt good. He no longer heard Kagome crying, but could tell she was awake. He walked over to her bed and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Meet me at the bridge," he said softly and turned around. He looked back at her one more time and saw how peaceful she looked when she was sleeping, or even pretending to. He smiled.

~~~

Suru didn't know when she started crying. She remembered Fox changing her clothes for her, then tucking her in and hugging her. Then the lights went off and Suru was lonely. Why was Haku acting so mean? It tore her heart in two at how harsh he sounded when he spoke. He seemed so cold and uncaring, but that wasn't him at all. Suru curled into a ball and felt the tears slip out of her eyes. She hoped this never happened again. She didn't want anyone to seem so harsh…And where were her parents? Were they all right? And her baby brother. Was he okay at their aunt's house? Suru tossed and turned all night. She couldn't sleep. After what seemed like hours (and they were), she heard the door open. She closed her eyes and slowed her breathing, pretending to be asleep. She heard soft steps come closer to her and a hand go on her shoulder. "Meet me at the bridge." The footsteps walked to the door and it was shut. Suru slipped out of the covers. She still trusted Haku. After all, he did promise he was her friend.

For the first time, she looked at what she was wearing. She had on a black apron type shirt, and a short sleeved red shirt, like InuYasha's, over it. She had on short red shorts that fell seven inches above the knee. You could tie it to make it shorter if needed. Suru took her ribbon from around her wrist and tied up her hair. She ran down to Komaji's, seeing as no one was awake yet. She scrambled inside and saw that he was asleep. She sat down on the edge of the floor and hung her feet over the edge. "Excuse me, I need my shoes please," she called out to the Fluffs. They came bounding out, Dot riding inside her right shoe. "Thank you." She took her socks and pulled them on. Then she picked up Dot and placed him beside her. Dot jumped onto her head as Suru pulled on her shoes; making sure they were comfy and snug with her thumb.

She ran to the door and smiled back at the Fluffs. Dot jumped into her shirt pocket and Suru opened the door and stepped out. She relished the cool morning air and began her way up the terrible steps. Five minutes later, Suru, sweat dripping off of her found herself at the bridge. She looked around and saw no one, so, without closing her eyes, she ran across the bridge. She felt a hand grab her arm and she spun around to see Haku. He smiled and said, "Follow me. I'll take you to your parents." He grabbed her hand and started running through some really pretty flowers. They were taller than both Suru and Haku, and they had many colors: Red, pink, orange, purple, blue, yellow, white, blue with red tips, white with black stripes, turquoise, and any bright color you can imagine.

Soon enough, Haku opened a door to the hen house and led Suru inside. There were to fat hens nesting there. "Is that them?" Suru asked. Haku nodded. Suru walked over and looked at them.

"You have to remember what they look like. They don't remember being human," Haku said.

"Why are they sleeping? Is something wrong with them?" Suru asked.

"They ate too much. They're sleeping it off. They will be better soon," Haku said.

Suru felt her eyes fill with tears. "Don't get any fatter or else! I'm going to get us out of here, so just stop eating a lot okay!" she yelled and ran out. Haku went out after her and saw her sitting on the ground, arms wrapped around her knees and chin resting on her hands. Haku sat down next to her.

He reached inside his shirt and pulled out her clothes and some fruit. "Here." He gave her, her clothes.

"Oh," Suru said. She took them and felt something in her shorts pocket. She grabbed out the letter.

Kagome,

Have fun! I'll miss you!

Kasumi

"Kagome…That's my name isn't it?" she said. Haku nodded. "I can't believe I almost forgot my name. Yubaba almost took it from me."

"That's what she does. She takes your name to control you. I've tried so hard to remember my name, but I can't. For some reason I remember yours though," Haku said, smiling at her. "Here, you should eat."

Kagome looked at the fruit in front of her. They were nectarines. She took one and bit into it. Nectarines were her mom's specialty. She would always make pies and jam and other goodies for Kagome. Kagome missed her world. She missed her friend. She didn't want to be a prisoner. Tears welled up in her eyes and streaked down her face; splashing to the ground. Kagome finished her nectarine and wiped her mouth and eyes. The tears kept coming however. Haku pulled her into a hug. "It'll be okay," he said soothingly. Kagome buried her head into his shoulder and let him hold her. It felt so right…she felt like she belonged.

~~~

"Thanks Haku. You're the best," Kagome said.

Haku smiled at her. For a minute, his eyes seemed to warm. "I'll be back soon. Now go," he said.

Kagome closed her eyes and ran across the bridge. When she felt she reached the end, she turned around and saw a silver dragon with dark green hair flying away. "Haku…he's a dragon?"

Preview of the next chapter:

"Haven't you ever worked a day in your life?" Fox joked.

"Hello? Aren't you getting wet? I'll leave the door open for you," Kagome said.
