The Higurashi Twins: Two of a Kind

Chapter 6: The Demon Hair is a Pain |Part 1|

Kagome P.O.V:

After walking in a direction to who knows where, I come across the Bone Eater's well.

That's where I came out.

My mind instantly goes back to the moment where I climbed out of the well right behind my sister. I was so confused at the sight I'd seen, I wasn't even sure it was really there for a while. I am soon pulled from my thoughts back to reality where I am standing there.

It should bring me back, right?

I look down the well curious of what I'd see at the bottom, but what I see causes a gasp to escape my lips. I see bones at the bottom!

Bones!

I hear Kaede's voice ring through my ears as I remember her telling me," We call it the Bone Eaters Well. It is a resting place for the bodies of monsters. Though the flesh of those bodies disappears quickly enough."

So that means that these must be the bones of Mistress Centipede...

I drop my clothes and fall to my knees with my hands gripping tightly on the edge of the well.

"No way. I can't go in there now." I say out loud.

I slowly turn around and put my back to the well.

Looking up into the sky I mumble to myself," What then?"

What was I supposed to do now?

Just then, I see what appears to be some fine thread, like hair maybe. But as a falling leaf makes contact with it, the left is cut into 2 halves.

"Hmmm?" I questions as I start to hear the revolting sound of hairs rubbing against each other.

The sound is a screeching annoyance that give me an inching feeling in the back of my throat.

I stand up from the shock and feel myself being cut along my cheek by what I assume is that hair I'd seen.

I look around myself and focus on seeing anymore of the strange threads. I soon see that there are everywhere forming a net around me.

"That looks like... hair!"

"Oh, My! Oh, Me!" I hear from above.

I look up to see a woman who appears to be standing upon one of the hairs. She has slightly shorter than shoulder length jet black hair and a red ribbon that separates her bangs from the rest of her hair that frames her beautiful pale face. If I didn't know any better it would have seemed like she was wearing blood red eyeshadow that matched her red lips. The color complemented her dark pink eyes perfectly. Her body was amazing, she had good bust that wasn't too much, a flat stomach, and a slim waist. She was wearing a dark purple dress that dipped almost down to her belly button exposing most of her chest. A dark purple and near black choker that fit perfectly around her neck and she had a yellow scarf with a strange pattern on it around her waist. She had on oddly shaped gloves that she seemed to pull off with ease. She wore no shoes, but instead weird looking pieced of clothing that hugged her feet but seemed comfy too. At her left side there was a katana of some sort that I don't want to see unsheathed. All in all, she was beautiful and could be a famous model in modern day Japan.

"So you can see it then!? My net of hairs I mean." She continues.

I see that she seems to have some of the hairs tied around her fingers.

"Pity... because seeing's not enough." She says in an almost mocking tone.

"Who are you?" I finally ask using all my will to sound unaffected by her intimidating net of hair.
