Inuyasha crossover Howl's Moving Castle
Chapter 1: Potential

"Good morning my dear, I hope that you are feeling much better today," said the old lady as she was rolled in on a medieval looking wheelchair by two page boy who looked to be like twins.

Kagome turned her eyes to look at the old lady tiredly, her throat still dry from the lack of use for it. It had only been recently that she had gain conscious. Her memories were fuzzy of what had happened, but just about everything remained in tact, except for her now new change in clothes.

"Madame Suliman," Kagome called out in a dry and hoarse voice as she grimace at the pain that it causes at the back of her throat, and the itch that she could not seem to get at.

"A water for the lady," Suliman instructed her attendants to carry out as they bowed to her with a smile. The pair of boys went about in pouring the water into a glass as they brought it over to Kagome with the same smile that is ever present.

She was still feeling rather weak as Kagome tried to push herself up with little strength, but in the end instead, rolled to her side as she weakly reached for the cup of water as she tried to bring it to her lips steadily without spilling it's content or letting the glass fall.

Kagome was unsure to say if the old lady was some form of sadist or what, but the least they could do, was to help assist her to drink the offered glass of water. However in the end, the glass of water still fell to the ground as Kagome apologizes weakly letting her hand fall to the side of her bed as it barely grazes the ground. Her body still overly tired as Kagome pass out into darkness from fatigue.

Suliman watches the young Asian girl, and right away she saw the potential in her that she had not seen since Howl. However at the moment with how weak she is when she had first appeared, it makes Suliman worry that it could be the work of the Witch of the Waste or worst. Another was that she was worried that it could be a potential terrorist that had caused her to be so, especially with the bloodied clothes that she had appeared with along with a bow and quiver strapped to her back.

"Let's return and come back again in the afternoon, this Lady need some rest. Please informed me should she be awake before us coming back here," she told one of her attending page boys before giving a nod of thanks and a gentle old smile as she let her page boys roll her out back to the observatory where she spend most of her time these days.

Kagome's consciousness floated about in reality and in the dream world as she hears the things that is going on around of her, but is unable to respond due to the lack of energy and strength. Everything is just so difficult, but even more so, she wants to know where she is now when she should perhaps be in the Feudal Era or lying in her sleeping bag in Kaede's cottage in the village. The grandeur of the current place tells her other wise and worries of the others, her family should she not return and Inuyasha goes to them.

He does not know tact most of the time and it worries her that he might have said something that will cause her family to worry even more, and she could not bear it as well. Kagome's body lay motionless as small gentle and firm hands placed her in properly. She was tucked into bed and left alone again, though perhaps not so along as she heard shuffling somewhere within the room as Kagome slept on.

"Suliman!" The King came by the observatory, happily and animatedly calling out to her as he rattled on about the war that had finally come to an end and the many things that they were planning on doing that would need her help.

Though the war has ended, and Suliman had wanted Howl to succeed after her as the next Royal Sorcerer or Wizard, and her opportunity to finally hand over the new reign to her brightest of pupil. Instead, he chose to run away and avoid her at all cost. Suliman sigh as she looked out to the open garden that shows the vast greenery that Kingsbury has to offer.

Perhaps now is not the best of time for her to retire and to take on the chance of tutoring her last student. She could sense powerful magic coming from the young lady lying in bed, and would like to see where that potential go by grooming her like she has done the many others before her retirement declaration.

Old age had been catching up with her badly, but after that time when she gave Howl an ultimatum, Suliman could not help but to feel that rush again, and in Kagome, she could see her shinning so brightly and full with the potential.
