The Shadows Within The Darkness

By Inuyashas Youkai

The moon was at it's palest as it's rays barely even touched the room shrowded in pink . Tonight had a certain darkness brought on by its own valition ,almost as if the night had a entity all it's own. The occupant of this room slept with her arrows by her bedside ,this night.

There was a certain feeling that this night roused in her , that left her quite unravel within herself. It was as though the ties that bound her , keeping her together were freying slightly, and to be honest ,she didn't like it. It all began at dusk ,just as the was trading places with the sun exchanging their quiet hello's and their faithful goodbye's,knowing that in time they would meet again. Kagome used to feel that way about a certain hanyou, though now with the feeling that now crept inside her ,increasing in strength and speed,she now longer knew.

Kagome looked over at the nightstand ,then at the clock that happily as if doing a happy dance ,blinking in her head

"Don't ya know it is 12:30 am , you idiot ! You are going to be worthless in the morning!" The voices of Inuyasha and Ash 's voices barking at her at the same time.

Its's almost like she could hear their voices in her head mocking her , as the voices were fading from the depths of her mind. Kagome felt like she was struggling to remember what either smelt like or sounded like. The only thing about them, that she found that was burned in her memory ,was when either were staring off in the distance ,and once she had alerted him of her presence, she was left with the look on their face staring back at her.

The way they held her attention,as those eyes looked at her, she would never forget. Though their was something different in both of their stares .At first they would both share a longing split in half for her in the depths of their eyes.In time, while Inuyasha's love for her was still split between her and another,Yash's centered on her with a different kind of love it seemed .Yet at the same Ash's gaze still humbled Kagome, as regret also swirled in his amber depths,although the love was hers and hers alone ,and unlike Inuyashas. For that look that she received from him haunted her from the depths of her soul,it wasn't that she was scared of him more less of what lay hidden in those honey amber eyes of his.

It soon was a little after one , and Kagome just got comfortable as to be able to shut her eyes ,when it happened. Her mind was blank, too tired too really think of anything as she headed for the brink of exhaustion . The girl ,as her eyes faltered and soon closed ,she felt as though ,when she crashed ,soon everything around her would come falling too.

Its seemed only too soon ,when the time came that something so frightening, came echoing the calamitous intent embedded in the abhorrent shrill of darkened malice- laced laugh came crashing on her soul . A shiver ran down her spine as the wicked ,volatile melodic tones reached her ears. Soon ,Kagome felt a sinister membranous layer slither around her form ,factitiously trap her within her own doubts of her mind.

As the vile unwelcome disturbance ,tearing her from the doldrums of the world she felt safe in, or was that only because of the hanyou. Kagome felt the fearful expectation as she recognized the dark tones within the voice, coming from somewhere unknown ,with no face in sight.

"KUKUKU", the persistent, unpleasant, and eerie sneer caused the young girl to become immobilized where she was, unable to move.

With Kagome facing the ceiling,from upon her bed, she noticed a sickly green hue ,beaming in a almost rhythmic in tune with the heartbeat, though not hers. The breathe from her lungs she felt were fleeting ,causing the irregular panic brought on by fear. With the seemingly lack of air ,her chest had started to burn ,as the acidic poisons began to fill her pours.

The extensive time apart from the feudal era, produced the unpreparedness or the immunity against the long forgotten effect of the miasma. Just before she gave into the perilous death ,that the summoning plight called for ,as she was on the road to collapsing down the spiraling pits of doom ,Kagome heard the mumbling of a madman.

" Its been a long time Miko, I believe the time has come for you to face your fate, So you can finally realize where your place in time resides .I gave you a taste of it ,for you will soon feel the devastation within it in death, a painful one ,just as your predecessor before you, and like your incarnations after you ." Naraku's haunting threats was the last thing that the miko heard before darkness claimed her.

When the sun's rays warmed the cold skin ,chasing the goose bumps off of her, Kagome unceremoniously tossed the covers off of her and wondered if the previous night's events did actually happen. Though once her feet bore the weight of her body as her fragile skin stretched ,and pulled on the the scorched segment of her flesh,she had her proof.

' Naraku had actually been there on the other side of the well,in her time, but how?The well is sealed or is it?' Kagome thought

Questions like these plagued her mind, while she leapt around her room ,careful not to tear open the wound ,she just got done nursing,off to start the day. After changing ,eating ,and brushed her teeth ,her alarm went off telling her that is time to head for school. On the way out she met with her brother Sota,in passing the well ,towards the entrance of the shrine, to their school.

The walk was quiet ,not that she minded but she ,herself longed for a distraction from the well and from past experiences, she was still being reminded of. So she was ever grateful of her brother's endless chatter that seemed to start because of the uncomfortable silence he was also aware of, not liking it as much as she felt. For Now Kagome felt that she needed to forget,for a time.

As a still new apprentice to the priesthood,Kagome felt inadequate in her skills,though she practiced what she knew from Kaede,to prepare for what was coming for her ,from appearances alone. Somehow ,couldn't shake how alone she felt and deeply missed and wished for her family in the feudal era. Either that for Meru and Ash would've been a welcome presence to sooth her fears with what has happened but even they were far from her reach.

Neither had been seen since that night with Ash,and even though she knew they were watching ,Kagome's attempts to get their attentions went unanswered. Kagome could feel their presence hiding within the trees surrounding the shrine,and even heard Ash's soft comforting growls. Though dead or alive she knew that she would meet up with all of them sooner or later ,she just hoped it was the latter, other than the alternative.

Kagome's school day seem to be lasting longer than she cared for ,she just wanted this day to end. Math was the worst.

'I knew I should've studied'Kagome mused

Although with everything happening she just could get into it. Finally ,the end was near ,she was headed to her final class of the day , but before she made it there ,the bell rang , while her movements came to abrupt halt.

While Kagome seemed to completely shut down , the world around her kept moving ,creating the insinuation of being thrown into a spin, without warning ,the sight of her surroundings became tarnished with the rapidness of the rotation spiral. Kagome had felt herself falling backwards into the the into the flux of the tailspin. Eventually when movements ceased ,Kagome laid there sprawled across what seemed to be a small grassy knoll in her shrine instead of the floor inside her school building.

Caught by surprise the instant realizations hit her full force ,she pulled herself awake ,allowing her eyelids to open, to witness what her mind already knew. There ,within the surroundings of her shrine, stood a familiar sight smiling back at her ,with the promise of returning home. Kagome smiled back ,while allowing the the trails of saltwater to form down her face,as she stood to acknowledge the image in front of her .

Standing there to greet her return was The Bone Eaters Well initiating her presence in all it's glory..
