Hey guys! No worries, I will also finish my other fan fic. I won't leave that one hanging, especially since it's getting very interesting. I wanted to post this one though, because well.... it was demanding I write it down. And I have a feeling this one will be a bit darker than the other one I am updating on.
Same as the other, in AU kinda sense. Multiple pairings and multiple point-of-views from all the characters. For those who know me, I am more of a realism, and I try to make my work as real as it can get. So, if you are expecting quick and 'in love', this isn't the one for you. Sorry guys.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this. Please review and let me know what you guys think! Thanks!
Silence was all that could be heard within the island’s jungle. Not a single sound echoed from within the treacherous darkness. But just as silent as it was, something could be heard in an almost whispered tone. Far across the distance, sounds of footsteps were racing against the lethal maze-like jungle. The only noise that could be heard as the wind and insects continued to stay mute.
Sweat was beginning to pour from the girl’s face, but she continued to race along the narrow pathway. She was getting closer to her target. Her heart racing, breath almost out and her lungs aching - she continued to push forth until she reached her destination.
She wasn’t the only one, of course. Beside her and behind her, ran eight other people all in search for the same thing. Each of them was drenched in sweat and dirt, chests aching from running for miles and dehydration close to kicking in from lack of water - and food. Survival was the only thing they have known for months.
They had steered cleared from the jungle for months, refused to be anywhere near the dark, eerie place. Their camp was always near the ocean, in case for salvation from this deadly island. But they weren’t lucky, just like what brought them here wasn’t luck. They weren’t even sure if they had been here for months, if not over a year or two.
Time could never be kept up on this dreadful island. All that mattered was staying away from the noise, and living until they were rescued. Except that wasn’t what ‘it’ planned out. They kept to themselves, but instead they took one of their members.
Racing, they all tried to get closer to their friend. They refused to lose him to this god-forsaken island.
As time raced along with them, the sun creeping closer to the horizon - they were running out of time. Jumping and dodging every obstacle to come across them, they finally made it to a clearing. A oasis in the middle of the jungle, and there laid him. Their friend. Their comrade.
Her lover.
Racing towards him, they all stopped at the sound of a crackling noise. Looking around, they noticed the crackling noise getting louder until finally it stopped and nothing but silence surrounded them. Swallowing in fear, the girl looked over to the male on the beach of the oasis. Fear entering her heart as she noticed him not moving. Her heart breaking. Were they too late?
No, she refused to believe he would be taken from her just yet. They were to leave this place! Turning over to the others, she watched as they too looked in awe of fear at their befallen friend. Shaking her head, she raced over to him only to stopped within seconds as she noticed him moving.
Lifting up on all fours, he looked back and revealed to them the sad truth of this island. His eyes…
“Naraku-” She whispered. “No-”
One year and five months ago
Cruise line in the Pacific
The night was chilly, but the stars were remarkable. Standing against the rail of the ship desk, she enjoyed the soft waves crashing against the ship. It was truly peaceful out tonight, and she found herself not wanting to leave at all. This could be life for her. Waking up to see the ocean and loving the sounds of the waves crashing around her. Even the smell of the ocean water was intoxicating.
Kagome Higurashi was still in awe at how lucky she managed to win a couple retreat on a cruise liner. It was a dream come true as both her and her high school sweetheart, Akito Hojo. Nothing could be more perfect for the young adult couple, but right now she preferred the solitude she purposely sought out. She needed air since her boyfriend had recently proposed to her, luckily he did it in private.
She wasn’t sure if she was ready to commit into a marriage, but she knew she loved Hojo dearly with all her heart - she just couldn’t bring herself to say yes just yet. Looking at the moonlight on the ocean, she found herself lost in her own thoughts, admiring the loving sparkles against the ocean’s waves. It was truly a beautiful sight tonight.
The stakes were high, and everyone around the poker table held a stoic expression as they continued to bet into the higher numbers. Chips were tosses until four gentlemen were left standing in the game. Each individually handsome, unique in their own persona and character. A youkai, two hanyous and a human.
The male on the far left of the table, human with certain abilities, cobalt eyes and a long braided ponytail with a large mark on his forehead, kept his poker face. Royal flush was in his hand, and he knew he had game. Placing another two grand on the betting table, he waited for his opponents to make their move.
The other male opposite him, red eyes and long wavy black hair, placed five hundred more on top of the two grand from the human. The hanyou looked down at his own cards, straight flush was in his hand and he wasn’t about to give up just yet. He kept his expression to a minimum, watching his opponents eagerly to see who might be bluffing.
With the two others sitting beside each other, both with amber eyes and silver white hair except one is a full bred yokai. Strangers at the table, no one knowing either, but similarities in the inus were very astonishing. They looked like brothers, but they didn’t know each other. Each with a straight and royal flush themselves, they added onto the bet.
Neither player was going to give in, and all believed they would win the game. After the stakes were raised another ten grand, each other them stopped and stared intently at one another. They had to the money to add on, but no one was budging. Sitting on the table sat two hundred grand, waiting to be taken by the winner - but none of them were the winner yet.
“What will it be gentlemen?” The dealer called out with a emotionless tone.
Inuyasha Matsumoto was the first to reply, “Royal Flush.” Setting his cards on the table, he revealed spades flush from ace to jack.
Eyes widen around the table, next was Bankotsu Fujiwara who also revealed a hearts royal flush. The other two players cursed as they both revealed clover straight and diamond straight. The game was a draw. The tension was rising thick in the air. The pot would be split between the hanyou and human.
“You got to be fucking kidding me?” Inuyasha shook his head in amazement. Who would have thought everyone had great cards and no bluff? Even the dealer was quite shocked.
“This was a great game.” The red eyed male spoke up. “It was nice playing with you gentlemen.” He bowed his head in respect.
The others bowed back in respect while the pot was busy being split between Inuyasha and Bankotsu. After gathering their chips to cash in, Bankotsu was the first to speak up to get their attention. “Drinks? I’ll pay.” He chuckled, catching a laughter from each of the others.
As they all nodded, they waited for the two to cash in their chips and have the money transferred to their cards. It wasn’t long until they finally reached the others and began a normal conversation at one of the private round tables. An order of Brandy and Scotch was delivered to their table - bottles left with short glasses placed directly before them. Pouring themselves a drink, they all gave a friendly cheer towards each to other.
“That was quite an intense game I’ve ever played.” Naraku Kasai stated while taking a sip from his scotch.
“I agree. It was quite intriguing than previous rounds I’ve had.” Seesshomaru Taisho, the inu-yokai, replied back in response with the hanyou.
“So, what brings you all here on this cruise? I’m here on business.” Bankotsu stated, drinking his Brandy off and pouring himself another drink.
“I’m currently here with my fiance, Kikyo. We wanted a change of scenery before we got married next week.” Inuyasha replied back, nursing his own beverage.
The other guys cocked their brow towards the silver-hair hanyou and each bowed their head and raised their glass. “Cheers on your wedding.” Naraku smirked. After each toast was made, he replied back to Bankotsu’s question. “I’m also here on business. What about you, Mr.?”
“Taisho Sesshomaru.” He responded to the hanyou. “I am here because my sister wanted a body guard. So I guess you may assume I’m on business as well.” The inu finished off.
“Neat, Sesshomaru-san. I’m Fujiwara Bankotsu, and you two are?” He asked while looking at both the hanyous.
“Matsumoto Inuyasha.”
“Kasai Naraku.”
“No kidding? The Kasai Naraku?” Bankotsu asked in curiosity.
“That would be my father, I’m his successor.” He corrected. “If I am correct, your family is also in charge of the Fujiwara Electronic Corp, yes?”
“Yeah, that’s about right. And I take it Taisho is the multi-billionaire industry of Japan and most of Eastern Asai, correct?” Bankostsu asked the stoic yokai.
He gave a brief nod while continuing to drink his beverage. They each finally looked over to the other hanyou, who had yet to say much of anything. When they realized he wouldn’t speak, Bankotsu was the first to ask. “So, are you and Sesshomaru related by chance? Or what’s your story?”
“No relation to the guy.” Inuyasha stated firmly. “I don’t know much of my family lineage, but I understood my father is a very successful man. I never met him though, and my mother rarely talks of him.”
“Ah, sorry about that.” Bank bowed.
As the night continued, the four men grew to know each other more and more - realizing how much in common they had and how much they even knew about each other. After what seemed like two bottles later and slurred speeches, they each bid their farewell to each other.
Walking down the hallway, Bankotsu continued to sway side to side, grabbing onto the handrail to gather his bearings. After reaching his room, from two failed room attempts, he finally unlocked his door and felt the urgent need to puke the second he saw his brother on all fours - stark naked - and being pounded from behind from another male.
“Mother of Styxx! Please burn my eyes for I no longer want to see!” Bank cried, rushing over to the bathroom, shutting and locking the door to empty his alcohol filled stomach.
Meanwhile, Jakotsu felt himself clench from the awkwardness and embarrassment. The mood was now completely gone and all he wanted was to bury himself six feet under from the shame he felt. How many times had him and Bank talked about their sexual relations on this cruise ship? If there was going to be a sex party, do it elsewhere and not in the room they both slept in.
Pulling himself off the human’s cock, he turned towards him - gathered all his clothing and rushed him out the door. “But- hey- what-” The poor guy couldn’t even get a word out until Jak finally slammed the door on his face. Racing back, he placed on some silk pajama bottoms and walked over to the bathroom door. Knocking lightly, he waited for a response.
“Go away, Jak! I ever wanna see you again! Wait-” He paused for a moment. “Ah! I don’t ever want to see you again! That’s what I meant! Ha!”
“Oh gods, how drunk are you?” Jak asked while he continued to lightly tap on the bathroom door. “Bank, please open the door.”
“No!” Bank sniffled from behind the door. “I saw things, man! Things I should never see, ever!”
Sighing in frustration, he placed his forehead against the door and gave a few soft taps before finally turning around and sliding down to sit. There was no use in continue this argument. He would have to wait until his brother either sobered up or finally gave in and left the bathroom. He couldn’t stay in there forever, since it was a bathroom after all.
Who would have ever thought they would be here on this luxurious cruise trip? Than again, they weren’t here mostly by choice. They had a job to complete, and that was to assassinate a certain greedy politician and some guy name Jensen Miyasaki. A yokai wolf with a nasty reputation that even left Jakotsu blushing at times.
Resting his head against the door, he listened to his brother. He was awake still but a drunk Bankotsu was never a easy to deal with Bankotsu. At that very moment, the drunk man was singing a tuneless song, and playing with what he assumed with the knob to the toilet. “Bank?” He asked, wondering if his brother would at least speak with him.
“I don’t like it in here. Jak, why am I in here?” Bank mumbled, finally pulling the knob to the toilet just to look at the water flush and come back up.
“Stop playing with the toilet! Come out here already!” Jak demanded, lifting onto his feet and jingling the doorknob. “Bank! There is no more surprises, you can come out already!”
Suddenly, the door unlocked and out peeked a very drunk male. His cobalt eyes glared at his brother than looked around the large room for any signs of other guests. Seeing that they were actually alone, he closed the bathroom door again and locked it once more. “Did you find our targets yet?”
“I thought that was your job?”
“I got caught in a middle of a very intense game. I then proceeded to get drunk afterwards. I am drunk.” Bank snorted while he continued to flush the toilet once more.
Rolling his eyes, he waved his hands up in the air out of pure frustration and went to the door. “I’m heading out. Bye!” He mumbled, clearly not wanting to deal with a idiot of a brother.
Once alone, Bank heard the door slam. He wasn’t truly drunk as he claimed. In fact, the reason for his behavior, he just wanted time alone to himself purely. He didn’t mind seeing his older brother get busy with some other guy, but it was still traumatizing nonetheless. His main reason for his solitude was - well, he just wanted to be alone.
For as long as he could remember, both him and Jakotsu had been hit men, or assassins to put it nicely. This was their life since Bank turned fourteen and Jak turned fifteen. It was something that paid well, and truly lived. Killing was never a problem with them both, and a matter of fact it was quite enjoyable at times. But this time, he didn’t want to be on a mission.
All he truly wanted right now was to be on a relaxing cruise with his brother, where they actually acted like human beings and had fun. He literally forgot who he was when he played poker and had drinks with those interesting guys. It felt like a normal life - and one that he craved more each day.
Sighing, he finally left the bathroom and looked over to see that his brother indeed left the room. A frown playing over his lips, he looked at the second bed nearest the wall and decided to call it a night. Maybe his dreams will be filled with happiness and normalcy.
Inuyasha Matsumoto finally reached his room where his beloved waited for him. A smile on his face, he walked in and saw his beautiful Kikyo lying down in bed with the silk sheet outlining her curves. Stripping from his clothing, he joined her in bed and gave her soft kisses against her shoulder and neck.
“Yasha?” A soft, sleepy whisper came out of her lips.
“Sorry to wake you, beautiful.” He complimented, placing a few more kisses against her bare flesh.
Turning onto her back, smiling up to her lover, she placed a hand on his cheek and whispered. “Where have you been?”
Chuckling softly, he grabbed her hand and kissed it gently. “I was gambling than talked with some interesting people. There was one guy in particular that looked almost like me - but I guess that just runs with being a inuyokai though.” He informed his fiance.
“That is interesting.” She chuckled softly. Suddenly, she grabbed his hand and placed it over her slightly extended belly. “We missed you, Yasha.”
Giving a prideful smile, he lowered himself down her nude body and placed his ear against her belly. Closing his eyes, he felt the small aura from his pup inside her - beating with life. Kissing her, he looked up and smiled. “Soon we will be a family.”
“Yes, and I can’t wait for the day our family becomes complete.” She smiled softly. “Come to me.” She whispered, sinking her fingers into his long hair.
Crawling up her body again, he looked into her chocolate eyes and felt his heart sing with joy. Placing his lips against hers, he savored the delicious sweet taste only she held for him. It would only be a week until they will finally be married, and he couldn’t wait much longer. He wanted her to be his - completely.
Suddenly, without warning, a shift against the ship caused them both to rock side by side. Looking up at each other, confusion playing in their eyes, they waited to see if the movement was a fluke. But another harsh shift caused them to almost fall off the bed.
Fear racing through his eyes, he quickly got onto his feet and help his fiance dress into something more appropriate. After she was settled, he went over to the door and opened it. It wasn’t long until the voice on the intercom spoke with urgent news.
“Everyone, please keep calm! Meet in the Main Dining Room! I repeat, everyone please meet in the Main Dining Room!”
Looking over his shoulder, he noticed the fear in his fiance’s eyes. Racing over to her, he grabbed her hand and held her closely to him. “We will be alright, I promise.” He whispered, leading them both to the main dining room area.
Kagome and Hojo both watched in shock as they heard the news over the intercom. They were not sure what to do, especially since they both were outside on the main deck. When he found out his girlfriend was outside, he decided to join her and possibly pop the question but that all ended quickly with the urgent news and shifts on the ship.
Suddenly, rain drops began to heavily drop on the two having them look up to the sky to notice another fear. The sky was pitch black, not a single star or moon was to be seen. The rain picked up, and eventually began to soak the two. Without a moment’s hesitation, they both went back into the ship and headed over to the main dining hall.
As soon as they arrived, they noticed all the passengers, and even some lining up in the hallways. It wasn’t long until the a few of the main staff arrived to give more news about what was happening. Fear filled the entire room, and the shifts from the ship were not easing the anxiety.
“Hello everyone! I am sorry to inform you all but a storm is about to hit us. We are trying to get through with little problems as possible, but we want everyone to be aware that all emergency floats are located outside on the side of the side by the large pool and gaming court! I ask that you all stay here in this room in case plans change. I ask that you all try to remain calm, and please do not leave back to your rooms. Thank you.” The young woman ordered.
As soon as the woman left, several people began to start whispering and chatting among themselves - terrified of how this lovely vacation was going on now. Looking around, Kagome spotted Hojo a couple feet away from her. Making her way to him, she grabbed onto his arm and looked up to him. “I’m scared, Akito.”
Pulling her into an embrace, he held his love in his arms. “It will be alright.” He whispered to her. Turning his attention back to a few guests, he began to talk among them. “Do you guys think we will be alright?”
“Honestly, I don’t know. If they say the storm is bad, we might be looking at those floatation devices as life saving.” The young man spoke up. “I hope we won’t have to come to that.”
“I agree.” Extending out his right hand, he quickly introduced himself to the two gentlemen before him. “I am Hojo Akito. This is my girlfriend, Higurashi Kagome.”
Taking his hand, he shook firmly and nodded. “I am Kasai Naraku.” The red-eyed male replied.
“And I am Miyasaki Jensen.” The green-eyed male answered back, shaking Hojo’s hand in return. Unlike the hanyou beside him, he had dark green eyes, dark bluish hair that almost looked black, and was about the same height as Naraku. “Nice to meet you guys.”
“Same to you.” They replied back.
As they began to speak, they turned their attention to those around them - hoping someone might know more of what is going on. So far, everyone was about as oblivious as them. With another sharp shift in the cruise liner, a few people gave a scream as people were knocked off their feet. The fear growing rapidly, everyone was on the verge of panicking. Even a few began to cry, especially the younger children that were aboard.
Looking around, Kagome spotted a few people - a woman with long dark hair that happened to catch her eye, as well as a couple other women who were just as terrified as her. She couldn’t help the feeling that she felt like she had known them from somewhere, but nothing was ringing a bell.
Then without any warning, another large shift crashed against the ship, sending everyone into panic and on the floor. Fear rushing through people, everyone began to head towards the exits. But that quickly came to a end as a few people began to run back into the main dining hall, in more fear than when they had left.
“Don’t go out there! A huge wave is coming our way! We are going to die!” Shouted a man.
It wasn’t long until everyone began screaming in hysterics. Ramming against everyone, pushing and shoving, everyone tried to find they own escape. Just as Kagome could ask Hojo anything else, a sudden hit clashed against the ship sending the large boat sideways.
Screams and cries were being heard as everyone began to slide towards the larger windows of the dining hall. “Hojo!” Kagome cried out, trying to grab onto her lover’s grasp only to be pulled completely away by the forceful crowd.
Tears falling down, she watched as the lights began to flicker and her boyfriend being dragged further away from her. Fighting to pull away from the sliding crowd, knowing it was useless, she tried to fight her way to her boyfriend. To be in his embrace and feel somewhat safe from all this hell.
“Kagome!” Her name was called out, but she could no longer see him. Crying in fear, she looked around in hope that he would be nearby. Instead she locked onto a amber gaze that looked directly at her. Looking away, she looked back and noticed that the ship wasn’t going to stop tipping to the side anytime soon. Trying to get onto her feet, she found it useless yet again as she was being pull back into the crowd.
The sound of grass breaking behind her, she looked back to see the large panel windows being broken and people sliding past them. “Hojo!” It was useless, she wasn’t stopping. Lights finally flickered off, and she found herself looking down at a black sea of abyss. People falling below her, she felt her heart racing in fear as she waited for her own turn.
“Hojo!” She could out once more, in vain hope, as she slid past the panel windows and continued on her way towards the water. Consumed in the abyss, her mind escaped her as a bone shattering coldness wrapped around her lithe body.
Sounds of birds and waves could be heard in the distance, and the feel of warmness consumed the young male who finally blinked his eyes open. Coughing up the remaining water in his lungs, he felt his entire mouth become tight with dehydration. “Damn, I could kill for a drink right now.”
Rolling onto his side, he wiped his face and ran his fingers through his loose braided pony-tail. Coughing once more, he looked around to find himself on a beach of a island. It then came to him what had happened. He remembered the rough ride on the ship, and how he was roughly woken up by his brother-
His brother! Quickly getting onto his feet, weak from the accident, he searched around. “Jak!” He shouted out in a dry, rasp voice. Trying to swallow and moisten his throat, he cursed when it was pointless. The salt water managed to dehydrate him severely. But that wasn’t going to stop him. “Jak!”
Off in the distance, the young man’s eyes fluttered open from the loud noise around him. Waking up, he was immediately reminded of what had happened. Searching around, he only found himself on the beach - alone, with no fiance beside him. “Kikyo-” Fear laced his words, he shot up and looked around in search for his love. “Kikyo!”
“Hello! Whose there?” Bankotsu shouted out as he spotted someone in the far distance shouting out as well. Gathering enough energy, he raced over to the unknown person until he came into sight. “Inuyasha?” He asked, shocked that the hanyou made it out alive.
Turning around, he spotted the same human from last night. “Bankotsu? Where are we? Have you seen others?” He asked quickly, hoping that the man had at least seen more survivors.
Shaking his head, he looked down. “No man, I haven’t seen anyone else. I just woke up. I’m trying to find my brother.” He whispered softly. “Come on, we will search for others, and hopefully your fiance is safe.”
Nodding, he followed behind the blue-eyed male. “Kikyo! Jak!” Both of the called out, hoping that by chance they would be lucky and find their beloved people. It wasn’t long until they did come across a few others.
“Hey!” Racing over, Bank dove into the sand on his knees beside on of the survivors. “Are you alive? Hello?” He asked, while Inuyasha went over to the other survivors.
Blinking her eyes open, Kagome looked up into a set of cobalt eyes. Quickly pushing away, she waved him away. “Who are you? Why are you so close to-” She stopped in mid-sentence as she realized where she was and what happened. Tears clouding her eyes, she looked around her. “Hojo!” She shouted out. ‘Please be alive.’ Looking back, she began to ask the strange man if he’d seen anyone?
“No, you guys are the only ones we have come across.” Bank answered, quickly getting onto his feet to help the others. Reaching the other person in the sand, he quickly recognized the mop of hair and raced to wake the person. Turning them around, his heart raised with joy as he saw his brother’s face. “Jak! Wake up man! Wake up!”
“Bank, shut up! It’s still morning.” He responded in a mumbled. Opening his eyes, he finally gathered his bearings and looked over at his brother. “Man, I had this weirdest dream that the ship wrecked, and-” His words never finished as he looked around - literally - and noticed that it wasn’t a dream. His heart dropping, he looked back to Bank. “You’re alive.” Tears misting his eyes, he pulled his brother into an embrace.
Watching from the sidelines, Inuyasha gave a silent smile of happiness as he saw the two brothers reunite. But he couldn’t be happy for them completely when his fiance still wasn’t in sight. “Kikyo.” He whispered, helping a couple people up. Two women with dark hair, but none were his Kikyo.
Kira Kitagawa and Risa Tanaka both survived the hell, each terrified and hurting with the fact that they both witnessed they beloveds drown. The night was tragic, and they had stayed together, hoping someone would save them from the ocean. Eventually sleep had taken them, and they awakened on a island - not sure if it was deserted or not.
As Inuyasha came to the last person with the group, he noticed the silver-white hair. Racing down, he flipped the guy over and sure enough it was Sesshomaru. “Hey, Sesshomaru. Are you alive?” He asked, lightly shaking his shoulders.
Opening his eyes, he turned over and coughed up large amounts of water. His lungs aching in pain, and nose feeling as if it was being pulled from the back of his throat. He was sure he had drowned during the ship wreck, but life wasn’t that easy for him. Either way, he was glad he didn’t die as easily from the accident. Looking up, he noticed the same hanyou from last night. “Inuyasha?”
“Yeah dude. Seems we are the last remaining survivors.” He stated while drawing his attention to the others behind him.
Looking back, he noticed the others, including Bankotsu. Getting up, he headed over to help the others onto their feet. As soon as he reached Kagome, he furrowed his brows together at the familiar woman he saw last night. He suddenly recognized her to be the one being pulled by the crowd through the window. ‘So, she lived through that?’ He thought to himself.
“Hey!” Bankotsu shouted out to the others. “I see a few people over there, walking towards us!” Everyone raised their attention over to the direction he pointed at. Within seconds, the survivors raced onto their feet and tried their hardest to quickly reach the others.
“Bankotsu? Inuyasha?” A voice called out from the other group.
Inuyasha cocked his brow, until finally seeing the others. His heart sank completely as he didn’t see Kikyo. All he saw was Naraku, another female and male. There was no sign of anyone else. “Naraku?”
“Yeah, I’m just as surprised seeing myself alive after that fiasco. Are there any survivors?” He asked.
Shaking his head, he replied back. “No, we just woke up not long ago. We haven’t found anyone else here.” His heart was breaking. He refused to believe that his wife and unborn child would be taken away from him so heartlessly. Would the gods hurt him that badly?
“I’m sorry to hear that. You have a fiance, correct? Where you able to find her?” He asked softly.
“No, I can’t even smell her anywhere.” And that was the harsh truth. He couldn’t sense or smell her anywhere. It hurt.
“We’ll find her man. Just keep hoping alright?” Naraku stated softly.
As the others began to join them, Naraku looked over to Sesshomaru and Bankotsu. “Glad you two survived.”
“Glad to be alive.” They both replied in unison.
Peeking from behind the guys, Kagome moved past them and tried to see if Hojo was with the other group. Her lip began to tremble as she only saw Naraku and Jensen, the same two guys she spoke with last night. “Was Hojo with you guys?” She whispered brokenly.
Turning away, they both looked hurt as they noticed who was standing before them. Swallowing hard, Jensen was the first to reply. “He was, but after we jumped off-” He bit the inside of his cheek, hard. “The ship drug him down. We couldn’t save him. We fucking tried, and we weren’t able to pull him back up.”
“I’m sorry, Kagome.” Naraku finished off, keeping his gaze to the ground with clenched hands.
Her heart shattered and she found herself falling to her knees from the news. Tears falling finally, she let out a soft whispered of his name until she finally cried for her loss. “No, it’s can’t be! He can’t be gone!” She shouted out, placing her hand over her heart. Denying the pain she truly felt. She refused to believe he was gone. He can’t be gone.
Kneeling beside her, Naraku placed his hand on her shoulder. “I’m sorry Kagome. Forgive us.” He replied.
Shaking her head, she let the tears fall and her cries be heard. “He’s gone.” She whispered, falling into Naraku’s arms. “My best friend is gone. Why!?”
As the others watched, Inuyasha looked over to the others if anyone might have seen anything about his fiance. As he caught the look of the unknown female, her eyes widen and sympathy took place in them. “You had a woman with you, right?” She asked softly.
“Yeah, do you know anything?” He asked, trying to remain hopeful.
Looking down, she unclenched her hand and revealed a Lockhart necklace in her hand. Handing it to him, she whispered softly. “I was with her after the ship sunk. She was injured really badly, and she asked that if I survive and see you, to give you this.”
Numb, he looked down at the golden necklace he had given Kikyo since the day he proposed to her. Taking it gently into his hands, he opened the heart and saw the fading photo of both him and her. His family - completely gone.
He no longer felt his emotions. It felt as if his heart had died with his fiance. Clenching his hand around the locket, he held it tightly to himself, grinding his teeth about his own loss. He didn’t want to believe it. He refused to, but it was the scent of her blood, that fading scent that he knew the truth.
His one true love was gone too.
Gone, forever.
Swallowing in pain, he looked back to the woman. “Did she die painfully?”
“No. The second she gave me the locket, she took her last breath. I’m sorry.” She apologized.
“What’s your name?” He asked, feeling his voice becoming more and more devoid of emotions.
“Sango. Taijiya Sango.” She replied back.
“Well Sango, thank you. I now have peace of mind that she left peacefully.” He whispered, feeling his heart break with each word he spoke. Tears begging to fall, but none made it to his eyes. He was now alone.
“I guess we are the only survivors now.” Bankotsu finally spoke up. “Let’s try to make camp, and get out of these wet clothes. The last thing we need is to get sick in this island.”
Everyone nodded. Everyone followed.
But no one knew of the darkness that dwelled before them.
No one knew what awaited them.
