Prologue: CAwayAway With Me…
Ever have the feeling that you're looking at life from the wrong
side of a mirror? And everything's passing you by but there's nothing you can
do about it… Every time I look back to the way things ended I just want to cry.
Things shouldn't have ended the way they did.
At least some good came of it. Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru finally
overcame their differences before he died. Sango and Miroku decided to stop
pretending and married before the last battle. Shippou…well I'm not sure what
happened to Shippou or any of Sesshoumaru's group.
I'm sure Rin's gone. She was, after all, human and it's been five
hundred years. It's sad, really, to think about that. She was such a sweet
girl, full of energy and alive. But that's gone now, when just two months ago
it was true. Sesshoumaru might be alive but really, who cares? Yeah, I'm glad
he and Inuyasha got over their petty differences but he still tried to kill me too
damn many times.
If Inuyasha could forgive him, couldn't I? I don't know. Maybe.
Maybe not. But what does it matter? I'll never see him again just like I'll
never see any of my other friends again.
If only things had ended differently.
(A/N: Just a tip: Kagome was 18 when the final battle occurred, in
my story anyway.)
Chapter One:
I played with a piece of the blanket that I had spread out
on the ground. School…well it was
the furthest thing on my mind, usually was.
Again a certain silver haired demon popped into my head.
Stop.
I squeezed my eyes shut to stop the inevitable tears.
Kagome. Even if he hadn’t died then he
would never have lived five hundred years.
A single tear alluded me and fell on the arm that my chin was resting
on. Damn, third time today.

“Great, get a hold of yourself Kagome.
I think you’re losing it.” Even
as I mumbled it I glared up at the gorgeous sky.
“If you think you’re losing it now, over the sky, after all
you’ve seen then I’d love to know what took you so long.” I jumped slightly at
the masculine voice and averted my squinting toward the sound.
Certainly not. His voice wasn’t
that smooth. Smooth and strangely
familiar.
I pushed myself up on my elbows and my breath caught.
“I was never given the chance to apologize.

his fangs. That alone was
disturbing. Him, smirk?
to tell me?
“I expect this is somewhat of a surprise.
you, which I’m sure has crossed you mind.
I’d rather like to get to know you.” My breathing started coming in
slight pants.
“You-I…what?” Gee. I
think that was the best sentence ever.
I closed my eyes for a heartbeat then opened them to gaze at the man I
once knew. “I thought you’d be dead by
now.” He quirked at brow at me.
“What a lovely way to hellhello. Really, Kagome is that any way to greet an old friend.” At that I
scoffed. I was finally in control of my
body again.
“I don’t have many friends who try to kill me.” He gave a
graceful shrug.
“Enemy of my enemy.
In the end we were allies.” He kneeled down next to me, which I
countered by jumping up.
“Keh!” The minute I said it I immediately regretted it.
“Really Kagome, my darling brother got over his grudge.
usually wore, well the one he wore five hundred years ago but was replaced with
something more…human.
“What happened to you Sesshoumaru? Why so…human?” Something flashed behind his eyes but was gone as
quickly as it came.< sty style="mso-spacerun: yes"> If I could name it
then I’d probably call it anger. At
least he still doesn’t like being compared to humans. I took a quick minute to look him over. His stripes were gone, that moon thingy on his forehead gone
too. I didn’t look like he was wearing
make up anymore and his ears were…somewhat normal with a slight point to
them. His fangs, long white hair,
golden eyes and otherworldly beauty were the only things that remained.
“Times change, Kagome.
People change.” His eyes bore into mine as if he were trying to prove
some point.
“But not you. I mean
sure you look a little different, more human, but I still feel your youki and
the other subtle things I knew back then.”
Again he gave a graceful shrug and stared off in the distance.
“Suit yourself, woman.”
In one fluid motion he was standing just a few inches away from me.

changed, wench. No doubt that spirit is
what attracted the hanyou to you all those years ago. I must admit it’s…exciting.” My heart pounded in my throat and I
was overcome with an urge to scream and push him away.
making me kinda nervous.
I took a step back but kept my glare on him. “A second chance, Kagome. “Better yet, I’ll send a car for you at your shrine at six Again I sighed. And ~*~ TBC… Ok peps this is a Sess/Kag lemme know if I should keep going ~*Napea*~
That’s all I ask.” With a flick
of his wrist he produced a card in his hand and held it out toward me.

he disappeared. Must be that demon
