Upon a deserted hill

"Mama I have to go back! Inu Yasha needs me! We killed Naraku but he's hurt really bad! Let me down the well!"

"Kagome, who's Inu Yasha?"

"What?"

In a old gray building

"So she tried to jump down the well again. I'm afraid that she is putting herself in too much danger to stay around normal people…"

"Yes Doctor, what do you suggest?"

"Under the circumstances, an asylum."

Inside a room with padded walls

"I'm not crazy mama. I shouldn't be here! Gramps you believe me, right?"

"I'm sorry Kagome but your story about traveling back in time…"

"And meeting this Inu Yasha who's an inu youkai…"

"Inu hanyou…"

"See honey, it's just not possible."

There is a girl

"Ms. Higurashi, you have to come to terms with the fact that there is no Inu Yasha."

"He is real."

"No he's not. This is why you are still here. We can't seem to make progress with you."

Who wasn't insane

"Repeat after me, Inu Yasha is a figment of my imagination…"

"You sir are a jackass, to tell me that some one I know exists is not real. I am not a lonely five-year-old making up an imaginary friend. The only thing that's depressing me right now is you and the fact that I can't get back to Inu Yasha…"

"So you admit that you have been suffering from depression. Is this when Inu Yasha appeared?"

"Argh!"

Because he wasn't a dream

"I think you need a little time to think about your outburst in the Time Out Room Ms. Higurashi. Such behavior is not tolerated here."

"What's the Time Out Room?"

But no one remembers

"Mama they tied me up in a straight jacket and put me in a padded room for hours…"

"My goodness what did you do?"

"Refuse to denounce Inu Yasha."

"…"

"Mama!"

"Maybe it was for the best."

So she must be insane

"Souta, you believe me don't you. Did you bring the pictures of Inu Yasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippo and the others? I told you where they were."

"Kagome, the negatives were blank. There were no pictures…"

"Souta this isn't funny. Let me see them!"

"I can't, I didn't bother to bring them but I think you need some rest…"

"Souta not you too!"

Right?

"Kagome…"

"Go away mother."

"Kagome listen to me. They will let you out if you say it."

"No. Get out of here."

"Kagome trust me, it'll be all better when you put this all behind you."

"I don't trust people who think I'm insane."

She's not insane

"Ms. Higurashi, it has been 2 years. We've tried everything with you but this notion; this Inu Yasha is not real."

"I know you think I'm crazy, you probably go home at night and joke about the loonies here don't you?"

"Wait Ms…"

"And then you laugh, your wife laughs and your kids snicker from behind the kitchen door."

"…"

"How would you feel if someone told you that your wife wasn't real!"

"Ms. Higurashi, Time Out Room!"

But before he comes back

"He is real… I know he is and when I get out of here and back to him he'll kick every single one of your asses!"

"She's getting eccentric. She might hurt herself."

"Then we have no choice, give her the tranquilizers…"

She fears she will be

"Gramps, I'm not crazy now but if you don't make them let me out I really am going to lose my mind."

"Kagome you know what you have to do to get out of here…"

"I'm sick of all of you. Don't bother coming back. All three of you think I'm crazy…"

"Kagome no it's just that your story…"

"I know it couldn't have happened. Like I said don't bother coming back…"

But she surely can't be insane

"Ms. Higurashi isn't it such a nice day. You could go out if you promise to try and work with me."

"I'm sorry I'm not that crazy…"

No, she's not

"He had long silver hair and it was so soft. And his golden eyes sparkled with weird kindness. Why do you even want to hear this Eri?"

"Because I don't think you're insane…"

"Wow, one out of a million. I must be doing quite well then. Are you sure you shouldn't be back here with me?"

They're all insane

"Look Kagome, he's in this book, Inu Yasha: A Feudal Fairytale."

"See, I told them I wasn't crazy!"

"But Kagome doesn't this book look familiar?"

"No, I've never seen it before but look here's a picture of Sango, and this is a picture of when I first met Miroku!"

"Kagome I found this book in the library. You were the last person to check it out."

"That can't be."

"But look here's a bookmark with your name on it."

Because he wasn't a figment of her imagination

"I think you read this book and thought that it was you Ms. Higurashi."

"Shut up…"

"Ms. Higurashi, this proves that he is a figment of your imagination."

"No it proves that you have been listening to me babble and set this whole thing up."

He was real

"It's been three years, haven't you people tired of bothering me? Just release me."

"I'm sorry but we have no proof that you won't attempt to try to find him."

"If you don't think he's real, how am I supposed to find him?"

Maybe they are all fake people

"Ms. Higurashi, for the umpteenth time, he isn't real. He doesn't exist, breathe or live."

"Yes he does, and he bleeds, and yells, and protects and sometimes he cries. Maybe you aren't real but Inu Yasha is…"

Maybe she's making them up in her mind

"I hate this room! Please let me out! I'm not crazy!"

Because she's not insane

"But I'm really not crazy just let me out…"

She knows she's not insane

"The padded walls have made me claustrophobic."

"And how does that make you feel?"

"Like you are a sorry excuse for a shrink and that you too think that I am insane."

She firmly believes she's not insane

"It really doesn't matter anymore what I say or do."

"Kagome I want you to come to my completion ceremony…"

"I'm sorry I've been holding on too long to just follow up with you guys anyway. Besides none of you are real. The only real one is Inu Yasha. And one day he'll come for me…"

Because near a well

"Inu Yasha, tell them you're real. Tell them for me so they will release me…"

There was a boy

"I'm so sorry Kagome…"

Sealed to a tree

"Why won't you come for me? Why have you abandoned me?"

With silver hair

"I'm sorry Kagome…"

And golden eyes

"I miss you; see what they've done to me?"

And adorable puppy dog ears

"I'm sorry Kagome, but I love you…"

And a quick temper

"Why won't you say something else? Why won't you fix this?"

And a loving heart

"I'm sorry Kagome…"

There was

"Inu Yasha please don't fade away and leave me all alone!"

She just knew he was

"Inu Yasha!"

Yes he was real

"Please come back!"

She's not insane

"Repeat after me Mr. Higurashi… Inu Yasha isn't real."

"Inu Yasha, isn't real…"

So why is she in the room with the padded walls

Crimson eyes stared into the small tainted jewel as the images reflected in them. He laughed evilly as his eyes flashed. "Sweet dreams, Kagome…" Naraku said maliciously as he faded back into the darkness.


And what was the cause for this little piece of writing? I have to go to a shrink in about a week and I fear if I tell them everything I'll end up in a room with padded walls. The end part she's talking to an image of Inu Yasha in her mind as she lays on the floor of her protective prison. Then after she comes back to terms with reality she starts to beleve she is insane and finally agrees with the shrink guy person... But that's it for now. Please review, I might add on to this later if you do…
