Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Fly Away Home ❯ chapter 4 ( Chapter 4 )

Kagome groaned as she slowly woke up. Once she opened her eyes, the first thing she noticed was that she was in an enormous room. She then realized that she was on a gargantuan bed with white silk sheets and a crimson comforter with a silver feather design. She turned her head slightly to see the white pillow splayed with designs of crimson and silver feathers.

Kagome gingerly got out of bed, stretching her cramped wings and tails as she did so. She rubbed her temples in a futile attempt to relieve the pounding in her head.

`I feel like I got ran over by a ten-wheeler.' She mentally groaned.

She decided to explore the elegant room. Besides the bed she had been laying on, there was a small bedside table, a full-length mirror, 3 big decorated doors, and a jewelry box over-flowing with various necklaces, bracelets, anklets and earrings of different substance and gems. The room walls were crimson with white wisps of wind. On one of the walls, there was a painting of a seven-tailed silver fox sitting on a reddish-gold treasure chest with a shinning blue gem in its mouth.

Kagome wandered over to a door that was decorated with inlayed designs of vines. After a silent appraisal of the door, Kagome slowly turned the knob and with equal speed pushed it open. As soon as the opening was wide enough, Kagome stuck one pointed fox ear in, listening for any possible threats. After hearing nothing dangerous, Kagome quickly opened the door all the way, stepped in and turned around and closed the door again. She turned around and was awed by what she saw.

It was an indoor hot spring. The borders and inside walls of the springs, submerged in the steamy water, were covered in a fine sheet of a brilliant green colored vines. Around the spring was grass and various types of flowers, mostly roses. A couple of flat-faced boulders sat in the spring, convenient for lying on. The room's ceiling was a painted replica of a midday sky, and the walls painted a hilled landscape with a setting sun and distant ocean. Best of all was the small waterfall jutting off some high boulders into the spring.

Kagome moved to stand next to the spring, still staring with wide-eyes and a gaping mouth.

"Like what you see?" asked a throaty male voice from behind her.

(I know I hate cliffies too but oh well. I wanna give special thanks to my first voter thornedyke. So um thanks! I'll try to update soon)
