Chapter 1: 6 years of trauma[br]
~~~6 years later~~~~[br]
The now 15 year old Kagome lay in her bed feeling around for the remote. "Kagome!" Her younger sibling Sota shouted. "Mom said it's time to eat. Why are you trying to change T.V. you can't see it anyway." Without allowing her the opportunity to respond he shrugged "MOM! Kagome won't go eat your fantastic cooking. She's too busy 'watching' TV."[br]
Kagomes' mother hurried along the trail to her daughters room. "Kagome there is no sense in you being this way to your brother nor do I have the time to wait around for you to continuously listen to that garbage. You can't see it, why give yourself a constant reminder about your imperfection. I know it's hard for you." Her now bitter mother remarked.[br]
"Yeah, you could give me your television sissy." Sota grinned.[br]
Ms. Higurashi sat by Kagome and offered her comfort. "What you're going through is unbelievable for me. Same goes for your brother. I know that you're upset about your old school and grim on the idea of starting regular school tomorrow. Although I have faith that you will do just fine and in 3 years we can get your eye replacement surgery done. Now come and eat Kagome. The food is getting cold."[br]
The sounds of their foot steps were drifting further down the hall once the feet of her mother and brother reached the kitchen. Kagome allowed the tears the slowly filled her eyes to fall onto her pillow. "They don't understand..." She mumbled.[br]
'In the past six years, I've grown into my inability to visualize object. While my other senses have risen and my instincts are right on the dot. I can pinpoint those whom are typically referred to as crude people whose hearts fill with impurities. Although I wish I could meet one person with a true and honest heart who doesn't think of me as different or in need of aid. I attended a school for the blind since my incident at the age of 9. My school however burned to the ground this Summer due to a fire a local pyro-maniac with a major problem with disabled members of society. My mother and father shared different opinions about what was best for my well-being. This critical point in all of lives ended up in a nasty divorce that took place only 4 months after Sota was born. I only see my dad on the weekends.'Her thoughts became interupted by the distant call of her mother demanding that she set herself at the table.[br]
Kagome pulled herself together wiped away her tears and made her way through the hallway counting every step she took. When her feet reached the kitchen, turning slightly to the right she took 4 steps. While seating herself she apologized for being late to the table and for making them wait.[br]
Their quiet dinner was interrupted when the door bell rang and continued to ring forming a sensation of bells chiming. Insitent on not leaving the table they sat there and kept eating. In a few moments of all the repeated sounds Ms. Higurashi stood with anger. Leaving the table she moved along to the front door slamming it open she forced a nice "How may I help you?" statement.[br]
Standing on the outside of the door was their father. "Hello, I'm here to pick up the kids."[br]
"You're late." She hissed.[br]
"I know and I apologize for this. Although I'd still like to keep them for the remainder of the weekend."[br]
"Fine." Slamming the door in his face, she turned and yelled for Kagome to gather their belongings and go with their father to his house for what was left of the weekend.[br]
Kagome and Sota stood and placed their dishes in the sink. Both headed to their rooms and picked up the bags which they had packed Friday night, when he was supposed to pick them up. They wasted no time getting through the front door and into the vehicle. Neither relished the idea of being around their mother after she had seen their dad again. The sight of him turns into a bitter take everything out on the kids kind-of mood. Sota refereed to this behavior as fire breathing dragon mode.[br]
The ride to their second abode was silent as could be. In a few short minutes they had reached his home. In the neighbors yard a moving van sat. "Whose moving there dad?" Sota questioned.[br]
"I believe they introduced themselves as the Yuricoshis'. It's a family of four."[br]
"Oh they have two kids then? Do you happen to know their age? Better yet their gender?" A smile crossed Sotas' face.[br]
"Haha. They have two boys Sota. One is Kagomes' age and the other is 2 or 3 years older I assume. Neither of them said much." Mr. Higurashi laughed.[br]
Turning around Mr. Higurashi walked back over to his car and helped Kagome with her things as well as directed her to the door.[br]
'Why does father always...no why does everyone believe I can't do anything on my own. I am capable of doing things on my own...'Kagome thought to herself as they reached the door step. Her father opened the door and they all entered the house. He then continued to help her to the room in which she stayed at while she was at his house.[br]
Tired from staying up all night thinking Kagome fell down on the bed and closed her eyes and dreamt of that night. The night she lost her sight.[br]
~*~Kagomes' Dream[br]
A ravaging flame engulfed the young girls bed. As she cried out hoping, wishing, praying to be heard before the unthinkable result emerged. Nothing. No a thing came to the childs rescue. Her screams echoed throughout the halls. No one knew she was home. No one could hear her. No one would her. She would undoubtedlydie. Her lungs filled with the smoke in which was emitted by the fire. Sirens were the last sound the young girl heard before her eyes shut. Upon the fire being extinguish the raven haired girl covered with ash around her was found. "We've got a body in here!" One of the men shouted.[br]
A gurney was rushed into the room. Placing the corpse on it they hurried it to the ambulance. She was on her way to the hospital.[br]
~*~*End of dream[br]
Kagomes' dream came to an sudden end when the sound of laughter rang through her sensitive ears. Pulling herself up she stood from her bed and began counting steps. '1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6-' Her counting ceased when she bumped into someone. It was a man. The scent was so calming to her. His warmth comforting. Even though it was just for a minute. She gazed upon with her sightless eyes. She could feel it. He contained a differnet arua than most guys...most people she had ever met. He was true and honest as well as sincere. He was whom she had been waiting for all of her life.[br]
"Inuyasha!" A woman shouted. "Hurry with the drinks for your father and I." Laughing she added. "Don't forget Mr. Higurashi."[br]
'Inuyasha? That was his name. It had to be.' Kagome thought wondering if she would ever meet him again as he walked away. Apologizing for bumping into her. He continued to the kitchen to receive the requested beverages.[br]
