Empty Pages

The Diary

What's this? Kurama thought, pausing on his way home from school when he saw a flash of brown. His eyes swept the area in which he had seen the out-of-place color. He found it in a puddle, all warped leather bindings, crinkled pages and faded printed writing.

Luckily, the small pool of rain water was not very deep, so only the front cover was soaked. On the first page, it announced in worn gold calligraphy 'This Book Belongs To', but the penned name underneath was too diminished for him to decipher. Glancing further into the volume, he discovered that the pages were all empty. Not a character had been written in the diary, aside from the illegible name.

Kurama sighed, disappointed, and after wiping the remaining moisture off of the beat-up cover, he slipped it into his shoulder bag, taking pains to be gentle. He would look over it more thoroughly later, when he arrived home. At least, he hoped he would.

Well, the first one's finished! After reading the lovely Forthrightly's 'Affinity', I decided I'm going to try writing a respectable KagKur. Most of the ones I come up with are one-shots. And those are just random ideas. I'm actually trying to coordinate this one.

Each drabble is 200 words long exactly. Each comes forth from a prompt (a little bit of a dedication to Forthright), so...

Prompt no. 9, 'What's This?'

In an aside, check out 'Affinity', as well as Forthright/Forthrightly's other brilliant fics! She's an amazing author and deserves your love!
