Another Girl Joins In Feudal Era

Her Dream

The next day I woke up to find InuYasha's eyes staring down at me as he stood by the door of my room. I plunged myself up in a startle as I shot a glare at the boy while covering myself with my blanket.

Roxanne: The hell you doing here staring at me?!

InuYasha: Erm... You were talking in your sleep.

Roxanne: What?

InuYasha: Don't you know what that means?

Roxanne: Of course I--

Kagome: Roxanne, are you awake yet-- Huh? InuYasha?

Kagome walked towards my room before she blinked at InuYasha whom she certainly wasn't expecting for him to be here, at my door.

Kagome: What're you doing here, InuYasha?

InuYasha: Listening to your friend talking in her sleep.

I gaped at him while continuing to glare at him as he slipped away from us. I noticed Kagome had the same expression as mine, but only that she carried more of a surprised look rather than the anger I was feeling.

Roxanne: Your boyfriend really is annoying, Kagome.

Kagome: Wha-? *blushing madly* He's not my boyfriend!

Roxanne: Yeah, of course not.

I replied sarcastically as I got up from my futon and started to wash my face from the wooden bowl of water that was beside my futon.

Kagome: Well, we'll have our breakfast then we'll be taking off soon after.

I nodded at her as she left the room.

*InuYasha's POV*

At first I wasn't sure if I heard it right, but as I continued to listen, I'm now sure that I /did/ hear her say both my mother & father's name in her sleep. I met up with Miroku outside his room as I was trying to getaway from those girls' questioning faces.

Miroku: InuYasha, you look tensed than usual. Did you not sleep well? Or did you had a bad dream?

InuYasha: Neither.

I replied shortly as I walked past him. Honestly, I wasn't in the mood to answer anyone; except for myself and /her/ alone. I would've questioned her back there, but the arrival of Kagome interrupted then.

~Flashback~

(Of Roxanne talking in her sleep)

Roxanne: I'm the priestess of this village, Inu No Taishou, you have no right to take away what's mine. If you must, I may not be able to seal you with my power, but I will not hold back from sealing your beloved Izayoi.

~End of Flashback~

Kagome: There you are, I've been looking all over for you. The breakfast's ready, come on.

I realized I was standing by the bride that would take us to the other side of the road, which we shall be taking after the meal. I turned around as I followed Kagome in silence.
