“I wonder where every body went,” Kagome stated, her large eyes taking in every detail on the shrine's wall before her. It appeared someone had carved hundreds of symbols into the walls of the shrine. She looked up and followed the straight lines of 'runes,' as Miroku had called them, until they dissapeared over the wooden roof of the shrine. She wondered who was responsible for many small symbols. They'd found the shrine alone and deserted. The grounds were kept though; clean and in order.
There didn't appear to be a specific patter to their arrangement that she could see. Try as she did to keep walking, away from them, her feet seemed glued to the spot. Her eyes lingered in one particular on one particular symbol that seemed to coil around another. As she stared, she could see it swirl around another lone figure. It was straighter; smaller.
Her hand slowly reached up and, as if in a trance, traced one slim finger over the spiraling rune. Kagome felt the remaining power of the runes flow through her, filling her with a sizzling heat bordering on unbearable. As if alive, the carved symbol slithered and curled into itself, as if wrapping tighter around the other lone rune. A faint glow flowed out from her rosy fingertips, enveloping the lone symbol wrapped so tightly by the other spiral rune.
“Don't touch that,”
Kagome's wrist was yanked away from the wall. She blinked and looked up at unblinking golden eyes.
“Inuyasha? What's going on?”
She followed his unmoving gaze and froze at the sight. The symbol she'd touched twisted and the glow she'd caused spread onto the other symbols, like a plague, until the entire shrine's walls were glowing an eerie purple.
“What have I done?” Kagome gasped quietly.
