《I See You [Sesshomaru]》Chapter 13
Advertisement
The bell rang throughout the classroom signaling the end of the period as students began collecting their things to leave for the day. As Akiko followed suit the teacher was talking loudly over the noise regarding their break before the next semester wishing them well before she exited the building completely and made her way through the streets. Holding onto Tobi's harness the animal lead her around, the side of his body just barely brushing against the side of her leg above the knee. "I wonder if Kagome will be home this time..." the young woman wondered aloud. The animal gave a grunt beside her. "She's been gone a longer than normal." They had all been expecting her to return any day now. But both wondered if she'd come home with news regarding Aisu. The young woman would even due with word on Sesshomaru's whereabouts. Inuyasha had been very wary as of late regarding his half-brother since he had not been seen for quite some time.
Nearly a year had passed since the gathering and her return to the modern world. It actually felt odd, having begun to grow used to the Feudal Era even if she had been unaware of it at the time during her stay. The family had been rather surprised when Akiko walked through the side door dressed in such formal attire and they rushed her with questions as to where she had been. Luckily, Tobi had transformed back into his canine state so Grandpa didn't have a heart attack at the sight. After two months of waiting they both knew news would most likely not be coming soon and the young woman enrolled in the university near them to continue her studies.
In the meantime when not busy with homework Tobi proceeded with Akiko's training in the backyard behind the shrine out of sight from anyone that could come by to visit. He had been a general, the art of fighting coming naturally with his teaching methods with the sword. And they also focused on her ice powers honing the technique in order for its release to almost be second nature and act as an extension of herself when it came to protection.

It was two days into her break when Kagome finally came walking through the door announcing her arrival. Akiko and Tobi had been lounging in the living room, the young woman reading a book while the animal rested near her feet on the other end of the couch, when their heads picked up at the sound of her voice. "Welcome home," she smiled when the cousin entered the room.
"I'm glad to be back," the teen sighed. "I'm exhausted." To express it she sprawled herself out on the floor.
"Any luck finding shards?"
"A few, it's still a slow process... We have nearly half, but still a long way to go it seems."
"It's impressive though. Most people would've given up by now. You'll get there, just don't give up hope."
"I won't..." Attention turning away from the ceiling, Kagome looked to her cousin. "How has your training been progressing?"
Finger touching the glass that sat on the table beside her the surface instantly frosted. "Well. It's becoming easier to control." Tobi sighed heavily at her feet, head shifting so they rested on top of her legs. "And I have a great teacher." Scratching him behind the ear in thanks, Akiko continued, "How are Inuyasha and the others?"
"They're good," Kagome answered.
"Bet Inuyasha wasn't too pleased you came back so early," Tobi muttered lowly. When the cousin had first learned that the animal could in fact speak she nearly fainted and Akiko made her promise not to say anything to their family. This had occurred after the young woman explained her sudden exit from the Feudal Era. The group had been woken when the horde came charging through and dealt with the strays that attempted to attack the village. Inuyasha was surprised she managed to get away from his brother, but she simply stated,

"There was no other choice."
"I had to come back," the teen reasoned. "I have a major test to study for tomorrow." Akiko hummed in understanding. "Shippo was wondering how you were doing."
The young woman smiled. "He's sweet. Tell him I said hello." There was a moment of silence that passed between them. "Have you heard anything from Aisu?"
"No... But we finally saw Sesshomaru a few days ago."
That peeked her interest. "Really? What happened?"
"Nothing." That was rather surprising, and Kagome noticed her expression. "I know. I was the same way when he continued to move on without engaging Inuysaha. He didn't even say anything as if we weren't there in the first place. Rin and Jaken were nowhere to be found, and there was no sign of Aisu. Though Inuyasha thought he caught her scent for a moment when we traveled north for a bit. But it disappeared before we could investigate further."
"If you do see her, can you try and find us some answers?"
Kagome smiled. "I'll try my best."

Lonely protagonist in an equally lonely metal world. Lets follow the story of their steps. Hello, This piece is “Blame!” inspired, as you can decipher through the antonym title. The synopsis will be changed in time to come, as will the tags, to keep up the mystery of the world as I try to emulate the dread of "Blame!" into a written form.

8 244The Twin Lands
Join our heroine Enru on her journey in a world where humanity lives in perpetual light and warm while their enemies, the spider beings called Araxin, live in perpetual darkness and cold. Just because they live in the darkness and cold though doesn’t mean the Araxin want to stay there forever however, and this time their bid for the Southern half of the continent looks to be shaping up worse for humanity than ever before. Every ten years the planet nears its second sun in such a way that the Northern half of the continent warms and thaws and the Araxin enter a period of explosive growth, before always attempting to assault the humans in the South. Through events that you will need to read and discover yourself, sixteen year old Enru ends up vital to the survival of humanity, but can she succeed? In a world full of humans, dragons, giant intelligent spiders, trogs, behemoths lurking in the deep, magic, politics (can’t forget the politics) and more, what wonders await you? NOTE: This is my very first attempt at writing ever. Not just my first attempt I am showing people or my first attempt that went anywhere, but my first of any kind. I welcome constructive critisism and I know my grammar is not always the best. If something is majorly bothering you please leave a good comment or review on it rather than just a 0.5 rating and saying I suck. NOTE2: The main character will be gaining power that is, if used correctly, well above the standard for her race however I plan to implement it in such a way that she does not end up being crazy over powered and able to end every fight at her whim. She will struggle, she will lose sometimes and there will be loss along her journey to save her race. There will be no harem and I am unsure if there will be any sex scenes or even romance as this is my first story and I am not confident yet at being able to write that properly. So if you came here for the standard royalroad super OP guy that flies around having sex with every female character he meets, this is not that. Update Frequency: As this is my first story and I am still in the early stages, I cannot say how often updates will be. I lead a very busy life and this is a new way for me to relieve stress. I hope to be able to put out a few thousand words every few days at the least. Enjoy the story! PS. Cover was found on the website thedailybell.com, they did not source where they found it. I rotated and resized the image.
