(OOC: And it begins, everyone...you may...BEGIN! OH and just to warn you, my begining post will be...long, just to get it started)
"No....stop it....please don't...no...NO!!!"
I sprung up in bed, beads of sweat rolling down my face as I tried to catch my breath. I reached up and tried to grab my heart, as if to try and slow it down. I started to look around me, everything was as it was when I went to sleep. The small cabin, still only filled with a small bed, a little table with latern. And one little round window to see outside the ship, that's right we were onboard a ship, I had almost forgot.
"Damd...I am never gonna get to sleep like this, both the nightmares and this damd ship tossing is like trying to sleep in a bed of needles," I said quietly to myself.
I looked over to my side, Saiyaka was there fast asleep. I didnt want to wake her, so I slowly and quietly crawled out of bed. It was really cold out, that was apparent when my feet hit the floor and it was ice cold. I quickly moved along and put on my clothes, and a pair of boots that Kagome had given me before we left to help with the cold weather.
"Thank goodness for Kagomes planning ahead...or my feet would be frost bitten by now," I said as I made my way towards the door, grabbing a large tan jacket as I went.
I walked outside of my room and into the short halways that had all the doors to the cabins, I quietly closed my door and then started to make my way towards the steps that led up to the deck. My boots made a destinctive clunk as I started up the steps, the air getting colder as I got to the top. When I got outside, there was a thick fog surrounding the ship, and a thin frost on parts of the deck.
"It's getting even colder, I hope this dosent slow us down," I said as I looked around the deck.
I walked forward to the railing that went around the ship, I leaned against it and started to look out at the ocean. Well the ocean I could see atleast, the fog was so thick I could barely see infront of me.
"Hey, what are you doing up here," Inuyasha asked me as he came up the steps.
I spun my head around and looked at Inuyasha, he was in esentially the same get up I was in. Except his pants were red and the vest was black. He must have been woken up by me yelling in my sleep.
"Another nightmare," Inuyasha asked as he leaned on the railing next to me.
"Yeah...even though its been six years since Naraku was killed...I still can't shake him from my mind. Its like he is fallowing me even after his death," I said as I looked out at the foggy ocean.
"I know what you mean, but its over now. He is dead, and that's the end of it. We got his jewel shards, and moved on," Inuyasha said as he also looked out at the sea.
"Yeah...the jewel shards," I said lowering my head," Those damded things, if it wasnt for them we wouldnt be in this situation right now."
"Speaking of wich, how much longer till we get there," Inuyasha asked looking over at me.
"I dunno, I can never get a strait answer out of the guy, but if you ask me. This whole idea of going to China, just really dosent sit well with me," I said looking to Inuyasha.
Inuyasha mearly nodded, he felt the same way I did. This whole thing had a funny feeling to it. But we needed to get those ten shards back, if we didnt then even more trouble could be started. And none of us wanted another demon like Naraku appearing...ever.
"Hey isnt it Mutsuki's birthday today," Inuyasha asked suddenly.
"Yeah, his tenth, this kid is growing like a weed I swear," I said smiling at the thought of him always getting into trouble.
"Him and Koi remind me of us when we were kids, always getting into trouble. So, what did you get him, for his birthday I mean," Inuyasha asked.
"A sword," I said looking back out to the sea.
"A sword eh, the one that you had Totosai make I am guessing. That's one hell of a weapon, you sure he is ready for it," Inuyasha asked me.
"Yeah I am sure he is, besides he will need it. If this trip is anything like I think it will be...than everyone will need to be ready...for anything," I said in a more serious tone.
