Chapter 1: I Swear I'm Not The Stereotypical Asian Driver
Kagome enjoyed living life, she enjoyed the simple and the complex natures in life. Both of which she had the pleasure of living.
The simple, when she once was an every day Japanese teenage girl living day by day worrying about the last east trends, school, friends, and boys.
The complex, discovering she is the reincarnated priestess of the previous guardian of the the Jewel of Four Souls, then having to travel all of Feudal Japan to reassemble the shards of such a dangerous tool.
Then the day she and her friends, family really, dreaded and was eager for came. It stretched into a long, vigorous, tiring week of battle for the fate of all of Japan, and possibly the world. The losses at first seemed to outweigh the benefit of the world, lying heavily in her heart. But time passed, and her love for her family matured, she matured, she moved on, lived on.
She found family where she never knew she'd find. Like in the heart of a previously secluded demon, Lord Sesshomaru. Ironically the man who almost succeeded in killing her, closer than anyone else who became her close friend, became her strongest link to surviving.
After all that came to pass, it seemed there would be no end. The Jewel lost its physical form, but then found a home in her. She was no longer human by definition, the ailments and flaws that made humans live strongly to survive was no longer with her. She lived as an immortal, as she came to discover. Shut from her way home, her only way back was literally to live all the years following to the present.
Watching her friends pass slowly.
Some more slowly than others.
Sango. Miroku. With children between the two, plentiful and as lively as their parents. They too lived well and passed, having children of their own.
Watching Shippo grow into a fine man, coddling him even after he grew past her height, fighting with him as a son and mother would during his rebellious years. Crying in pride as he gained more and more tails. Rolling her eyes whenever he boasted that he was a proud single male living his prime.
Then Inuyasha.
That in itself, had her contemplating how much longer she could live. How much longer she honestly wanted to live.
But life comes in all shapes and sizes.
And so she found herself striving to live for more. For more than just herself.
So here she was.
Hundreds of years later, with two other accomplished scientists, and an unlikely intern, in the middle of nowhere. In a stuffy van.
Staring at the stars.
Searching for more.
Kagome sighed miserably, slouching further into the uncomfortable cushions of her seat. The stars in its mass wonder, never failed to show its beauty and amaze her. But after seven hours straight of constant searching. Her eyes burned and she was tired.
"Jane," Kagome called out, "I'm really as enthusiastic as you are, but there's only so much waiting to be done at a time."
"I know, I know Kags, but I really think we're close on this one!" The petite Astrophysicist quipped, binoculars clenched tight in her pale hands.
"I'm with Dr. Anime, Jane," The not-so-enthusiastic Intern groaned from her position on the van floor, "I'm a late sleeper, but this is even too much for me."
"Kagome, Darcy, Ka-Go-Me," The Asian Priestess groaned out half heartedly.
"I-Am-Hungry," Darcy repeated in the same tone, earning a giggle from the young doctor.
"Come now ladies," Erik Selvig dropped, with an amused albeit tired smile, "We're all scientists here."
"Okay...we might to move one more time," Jane stated, pulling herself back into the van.
Nodding silently, Kagome started the car and navigated towards their next spot. She would've said something, but the groan that emitted from Darcy was loud enough for the both of them.
At least the night air was cool.
The ride was silent as Jane quietly reviewed over their findings with Erik and Kagome, both murmuring suggestions as they slowly made their way through the desert.
With a squeaky brake, Kagome rolled them to a gentle stop. Turning off the engine once they confirmed their location. Needing a stretch, Kagome hopped out of the driver's seat and out into the open. She let out a large but silent yawn, stretching her arms above her head. Her back was starting to cramp, being in the chair for so long.
She listened as Dr. Selvig and Dr. Foster set up their receiver atop the van once more. Kagome silently thanked Dr. Selvig for coming along, normally she would be with Jane mainly setting up and such, but it was nice taking a step back once in a while. It was refreshing to have another accomplished scientist beside them. Especially when their findings could very well reshape a lot of humanity's current beliefs on what was really going on out in the world.
'It is a nice night…' Kagome lamented as she quietly went through her stretches, ones that have been burned into muscle memory after years of physical training.
Feeling her muscles slightly warmer, Kagome turned towards the van top. She could hear their equipment running, but nothing indicating what they were looking for.
"Jane?" Kagome called up.
Jane looked down, sharing a look with her, then glanced at Erik, dutifully noting his doubt.
"Wait for it," She chimed, talking not only to her companions but herself as well.
'Please don't fail me,' Jane thought with hope, glancing hard into the night sky.
"Can I turn on the radio?" Jane asked sullenly, tucked between the two driver seats.
"No."
"No."
Both Kagome and Jane denied simultaneously, without looking away from the night sky. Darcy scrunched her nose before sighing, she hated when they acted like carbon copies of one another. Kagome was a lot more laid back than Jane but when they both acted like this, Darcy felt like she was going to lose her mind.
The silence continued.
Erik swallowed hard, looking away from the vast darkness first, he looked between his two comrades, and fellow scientists.
"Jane, Kagome," He started tiredly, "You both can't keep doing this…"
Jane was quick to duck down and revert back to hers and Kagome's research, Kagome following behind.
"The last seventeen occurs were predictable," Jane started, reaching out and shuffling through their data.
"To the second," Kagome added on as she pulled herself back into the driver's seat, seeing Erik's skeptical look.
"You two are astrophysicists, not storm chasers," Erik reminded carefully, nonetheless listening.
"I'm telling you, there's a connection between these atmospheric disturbances and our research," Jane reminded strongly, "Erik, we wouldn't have asked you to fly out here unless we weren't absolutely sure."
"But-"
"Erik," Kagome interrupted, "Seventeen. It wasn't three, where it would be written off as coincidences, even five could be a stretch. But there were seventeen occurrences, all of which lined up with our research. All of these were happening real time. The probability of coincidence is way below us stretching for the stars."
"This is our life research Erik," Jane practically begged.
"Uh, Kags? Jane?" Darcy raised her voice, tugging on Kagome's sleeve, "You guys have to see this." She pointed off into their side view mirror.
Simultaneously, the three older adults leaned forward, squinting as they made out the lights in the clouds behind them.
"What is that?" Jane asked incredulously.
"I...don't know," Kagome responded, eyebrows raising and disappearing into her bangs.
All three jumped to their feet, Jane and Erik looked back out the roof of the van, Kagome careening her upper body out the driver side window.
The green lights seemed to stream through the clouds like water, waving quite similarly like the aurora borialis.
"I thought you said it was a Southern Aurora?" Erik gasped.
"Go!" Jane shouted.
With a grunt Kagome shot back down into her seat and started the engine as fast as she could.
Then they peeled off, heading straight towards the lights. Doors flapped until they were shut firmly, Jane crawled her way to the front passenger's seat, hand-held camera out and filming. Darcy groaned, clinging hard onto the back of the seats.
"Go, go Kagome!" Jane encouraged with a smile that stretched across her face, one that's mirrored the smile on Kagome's face.
"I'm going! I'm going!"
Not even the rough terrain seemed to slow them down, as Kagome toughed their van through it, despite it bouncing for its life.
"You drive like a crazy Asian lady!" Darcy screamed right into Kagome's ear.
"You scream like a crazy lady!" Kagome retorted, just as loud. Earning a small laugh from Erik despite the situation.
Then the roar of thunder rattled their windows, a tornado almost seemingly appearing right before them. Lighting had them all reeling in shock.
Kagome's jaw dropped, as the sudden tornado filled her vision. This was like seeing Kagura's wind attacks up and personal.
In their moment of awe, Kagome kept her foot firmly down on the gas, moving them closer. Her common sense shunted for a second.
Except Darcy.
"No!"
Darcy lurched forward, grabbing the wheel from the startled Asian woman. With a hard turn, she twisted the wheel from Kagome's hands.
"What are you doing Darcy!" Kagome shouted, attempting to win the wheel back as their van careened violently on its wheels.
"I am not DYING for six college credits!" Darcy emphasized, pulling her body over the middle divider and struggling for the wheel.
"Darcy!" Jane screamed, reaching over to attempt to help Kagome regain control.
It was complete chaos inside and outside the van. The storm outside pulsed, lightening seemingly striking within the storm, winds shaking the windows. Inside, all three women were frantically fighting for the wheel.
Then it happened.
Like a flash.
Kagome looked up and spotted a vague outline of a human-like figure.
"Oh My GOD!" She screamed, slamming the breaks, jerking the wheel to the side attempting to avoid hitting whatever was in the storm. As the other occupants looked up, they joined in the screaming just as whatever it was hit the side of the van, slamming straight into the window.
The van screeched to a stop, putting an end to their bickering.
They shared the silence, all their wide eyes meeting on another, as if trying to silently confirm what just happened.
It happened.
Kagome, Jane, Darcy, and Erik darted out of the car as fast as they could.
"Oh my," Kagome gasped running towards the fallen figure.
"I think this was legally your fault!" Darcy shouted, following.
"Get the first aid kit!" Kagome shouted, ignoring Darcy's comment.
Jane dropped down beside the figure first.
"Do me a favor, and please don't be dead," she begged.
Erik stood back holding a light to shine on the man, observing and moving as Kagome came to kneel on the other side of the fallen man.
She immediately began searching for a pulse and breath. Both of which were erratic but present. With what light they had, she tried to scan him for obvious and dangerous injuries. Other than a head wound and some scratches, she could not sense any major bleeds.
"Here you go Kagome," Darcy dropped the kid beside her, panting.
"Thank you," Kagome immediately dug into the kit and began pulling supplies to clean his head wound and dress it. She pressed firmly into the wound with gauze to stunt the bleeding.
She could not risk utilizing her powers to heal the man, even the minor wounds, simply because all the attention was on her and the man. Unfortunately even the smallest use of her powers displayed itself quite brightly, so she would refrain from using them. The man didn't seem so close to knocking on death's door, so she could reason not blowing her cover to heal the man. For now.
Despite his quite dirtied appearance, beneath all the filth, Kagome could tell he was a very handsome fellow. And very fit. Granted he was probably out of his mind for being out here in the middle of nowhere in such tight clothing, not even a jacket, he was a handsome peculiar fellow.
A quiet moan left the man.
"He's alive," she finally breathed.
Jane and Darcy sat back with a sigh of relief as Erik closed his eyes.
Then Jane asked the obvious question which had all present, conscious company looking around warily.
"Where did he come from?"
