HOW COULD YOU NOT REMEMBER?!?! YOU WROTE IT!!! (me- yeah, it happens ^.^")
You shyly venture through the opening of the cave. The singing echoes lightly. You walk a little further into the cave, the light growing dimmer and the singing growing clearer. You keep walking gingerly, moving your hands along the sides of the cool cavern walls, when the cave at last becomes pitch black. You hear the singing louder than before, It bounces off the walls and creates echoes, making you unable to tell where its coming from. You seem a dim light. It seems so far away. You scuffle toward it, not removing your hands from the wall. The light becoming brighter and brighter, until it appears as a shining white beckon at the end of a long tunnel. You scuffle a little faster, trying to be careful not to trip over anything that may be in your path. You bump into a door suddenly. You step back in surprise and see the light outlining part of the door. You feel around for a doorknob, when youre suddenly hit with deja vou. You shake it off and find the doorknob at last. You turn it carefully, feeling the rust fall off in your hand. You push the door open, breaking through its rusted hinges. You poke your head inside the dimly lit room. You can tell the door hasnt been opened in some time, as indicated by the rust, but somehow, theres a light inside. In the room, you see a figure slumped over in the shadowy corner. Your blood freezes. It doesnt budge. You poke your head in a bit more, the door creaking loudly. You stop, fixing your eyes on the dark figure. Still, it stay as it is, not moving a single muscle. You call out and quickly dart back out of the room. The figure stays where it lies motionless. You swallow the lump in your throat and venture in the room slowly. You walk in far enough to see the light source is a lantern hung up on the wall, the flame flickering madly, as it comes closer to the end of the wick. You carefully tiptoe to the dark corner towards the mysterious, human-like figure. You reach out to touch it, your hand trembling and stretching out. The object suddenly falls over, landing on its side, partially revealing itself in the light. You gasp and jump back. You must have seen wrong. You heart pounds madly. You see your face, and body, shriveled from the dusty, waterless environment. You fall to your knees, ripping your gaze from this disgusting sight. You desperately grab your face, holding in the tears of confusion and horror. Your mind races. You wonder how this could happen, and if it was even real at all. You run out of the room and blindly race through the dark cave, tripping an bumping into rocks. You keep running through the cave, until your lungs run out of air and your legs collapse painfully to the ground, covered in scrapes and cuts. You sit gasping for air in the smothering darkness of the cave. The wet air clings to your desperate lungs. You feel scared, lost and confused by what you saw in the room. You look around trying to spot a light from the outside. Only black meets your eyes. You close your eyes and sink to the ground, "Im lost, I have no idea where the outside is what am I going to do?!" And, thats it for this chapter! please rate high and message me, and perhaps there will be a next chapter!

i want more!!! MORE I SAY!!! MORE!!!
cool beans, kid. (me- beans! where?!)
It's so quiet. You wonder how the dragon did such a thing, or if the dragon did it at all. Half of the ball suddenly shatters, revealing a view of all of your friends, Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, Keiko, Botan, and Hiei. Your heart skips a beat. Its been so long since youve seen them, but youre so happy they exist. You crawl out of the ball to go greet them, but are suddenly stopped by an invisible force. You place your hands on it and start pushing and punching to get out of it, but it does nothing. Everyone is outside somewhere looking around and calling your name. Keiko and Botan look like theyre about to cry, and console each other while dragging their feet along. Yusuke yells out your name and runs around, checking every tree, bush and crevice for you. Kuwabara looks under rocks and in caves while shouting for you. Hiei stops walking and crosses his arms. Kurama walks and stands next to him, "Arent you the least bit concerned about her?" Hiei throws Kurama a dirty look and grunts, "Its been four days already. Were not going to find her. We may as well give up." You feel your heart break into a thousand pieces. You place your hand over your chest and sit back. Kurama sighs, looking at Hiei piteously, "I know you dont mean that, Hiei." Hiei turns his back and speaks gruffly, "Just leave me the fuck alone." Kurama reaches out to touch Hiei, but decides against it and keeps walking with a small frown on his face. You feel your breaking heart sink in your chest. You clutch your chest tightly and look down at your lap. Tears well up in your eyes, "so, I guess he doesnt feel the same way about me.." The ball slowly hovers closer to Hiei. The ball stops not two feet away from him, and hovers, holding you at eye level. Hiei turns and faces the ball. His eyes meet yours. Your heart skips a beat. Hiei lowers his head and shoves his hands in his pockets as he slowly drags his feet right through you. You feel him pass right through your body. It feels like an intense, warm shiver. The ball turns around and follows behind Hiei at his pace. You follow him through the thick vine and moss covered trees. Hiei somberly steps through the bushes and bundles of vines and flowers nesting themselves in the bark and roots. The ball passes through, without disturbing the hammocks and drapes of vibrant green. You marvel at the intense beauty of your surroundings and watch the occasional ornately decorated butterfly dance through trees, carefully landing on the delicate flowers. The ball finally follows Hiei to a small creek, where he stops, hands in pockets, head down. The creek sparkles delicately, washing over the smooth gray stones. Hiei looks down at the creek emotionlessly. He blinks slowly, as if just waking up from a dream. The ball places you next to him. You sit inside and watch Hiei. He suddenly falls to his knees. His hands come up and clutch his forehead violently. He lets out a painful scream, throwing up his head, his hands still clutching with all their vigor. He stops, his head immediately falls down, and his hands beat the soft bank in front of him, "WHY?!" he shouts gruffly to himself, "WHY did I pick HER of all people?! I cant let her get to me! This.feeling.. Is going to drive me insane!! We are never going to find her!! She will NEVER come back!!" You throw your hands to the force field of the ball, "No! Im here, Hiei!" You call out to him. He lifts his head suddenly. His eyes are full of shock. Your eyes widen as you think, "did he actually hear me?!" You pound on the invisible field and scream Hieis name. Hieis eyes grow wider. He frantically stands up, and looks around everywhere. "Im right HERE!!!" you scream. Hiei starts quickly checking everything around him. The ball stays where it is, though Hiei has disappeared off in the brush. You pound you fists into it, "No! Follow him! Bad ball! BAD! YOU FOLLOW HIEI THIS INSTANT!!" The ball pops, but you remain hovering in midair. Your fists freeze in mid-punch. You timidly look down and see you are hovering two or three feet off of the ground. You stare at the mossy ground, your eyes widened. You swiftly fall to the ground with an oof! You sit back, your arms extended behind you, "Now what?" You hear a voice behind you. You whip yourself around. It seems to be coming from a cave, the opening of which is almost completely hidden from sight by curtains of vines and moss. The voice is faint, but gorgeous. Its singing a song you know, but cant quite seem to remember. You lift yourself up to you feet and follow the sound as if in a trance.

The warm light fills your body and soul with a divine contentment. It feels so good to be there, and as if you have always belonged there, in the light. You feel so alive and alert, but content and relaxed. You feel a softness brush up against your arm and hear a familiar voice call your name. The voice trails off each time it beckons you. Your eyes flutter and open, being at once struck by the vivid greens, blues, and reds of the field before you. You blink a few times in disbelief. "Did I just die? Is this heaven?" you think to yourself, trying to put together what has happened to you. "The last thing I remember is.." you think back to last night, oh! I saw a dragon!" The field explodes in a fury of blossoms in colors so vibrant your eyes can barely take it all in. Butterflies of all sizes, colors and shapes flap crazily out of the flowers and fill the sky with an extravagance you had never before seen. You stand breathless as the yellow, orange, green, purple and red jewels swirl and dance in the sky above you. You hear the voice call your name again, but this time, it sounds as if it is right in front of you. You shift your gaze quickly to your front. The creature from last night stands in front of you, not five inches away. You gasp in surprise and lean backward a little. The dragon calls your name again. You stare wide eyed at it. "It is time we have started working together again. Don't you think so?" Says the dragon in a benign voice. Your eyes get wider, "aat-t-talkingd-dragon?" you stammer out in your shock. "Why yes, and I have spoken Let us work together again." You sit down on the ground, "uh mr.-ms.? Dragon what.. Are you talking about..?" The dragon sits in front of you, curling its tail around its body, "You and I have become one in the same, but for a while, we have been separated by the man who trapped you in this illusion. I called for you through the illusion; it was too strong for me to break by myself and I cannot ask our friends for help because I cannot exist by myself! You needed to break the illusion, and you did. I thank you from the bottom of my heart." You sit gaping widely at the dragon, unsure of how to respond to that. You blink hard a few times and look around, "wh-wh-wh-" the dragon snorts loudly. A white light, much similar to the light before, shining from the ground below you suddenly forms and begins to lift and envelope you in a shining white ball. The light fills you with a quenching warmth. It slowly reaches your elbows. You look at amazement at the white light and turn to look at the dragon, but its gone. You stare in shock at the area the dragon had seated itself as the light comes to your neck. Your entire body vibrates with warmth. The light comes past your ears and quickly swallows your entire head. You sit inside the ball that has formed around you and look around.
