DEEPEST BLUE
DISCLAIMER: INUYASHA IS NOT MINE!
SUMMARY: Today was the day, After the battle with Naraku,Kagome sat in an open meadow in spite of every thing she had been through was tired , tired of Inuyasha's crap , tired of life and everything in it , but what will Sesshomaru have to say in this. Will another adventure unfold ?
It was a warm summer night in the feudal era, Kagome and the gang were camping on the outskirts of the village not far off. Inuyasha on a tree branch with Kikyo by his side, Sango and Miroku bickering about marriage making Sango blush and hit the houshi over the head, Shippo and Kirara huddled by the fire making Kagome smile, she herself sat the farthest from the group. She was tired but not the tiredness you felt when you've done a lot in a day and crash sleep totally exhausted, it was a tiredness that was empty non emotional ,not caring. Kagome felt this after the battle with Naraku, all that has happened to her between Inuyasha and Kikyo she was tired of it and after the battle Kikyo finally joined Inuyasha and the gang.
Though Kagome was not affected by Kikyo joining ,for Kagome was not in love with Inuyasha anymore. Kagome was a smart girl she knew Inuyasha would never really love her like he loved Kikyo. She gave up that first love it was already decided when Kikyo was reincarnated that time she was kidnapped by that demon witch. Kagome watched the moon and she decided she wanted to take a walk. "Inuyasha?", Kagome called, Inuyasha looked over not trying not to stir the sleeping Kikyo in his arms ,with the furrow of his brows he answered ,"what is it?", Kagome smiled , Inuyasha seeing this blushed a little. He knew Kagome had feelings for him back then and he thought she had been heart broken that he chose Kikyo over her. But that was far from it ." I'm going for a walk ill be back soon", Kagome said picking up her bow and arrows. "feh,suit yourself." and in a unnoticed whisper he said "be careful." as he saw her disappearing through the trees.
"It's a full moon today."Kagome thought, the wind blowing ever so nicely on her features.
Kagome had grown mentally and physically she looked like a happy young women her eyes said otherwise they were a darker hue of blue now void, hardness in them over the years. Not like when she was younger her eyes were big and bright with love for life in them. Kagome was now an adult her body fit ,she had muscles that you could not see, long legs models would be jealous of, Kagome's taste of clothes changed as well she wore a white t-shirt that hugged her womanly hour glass figure .She wore black converse, ripped skinny jeans that were stretchable enough for her to move freely like running or jumping,and fighting stances, yeah over the years Kagome learned much about fighting she was not so weak any more never again she told herself. Her senses as well improved though her miko abilities she felt diminish after the final battle with Naraku. She did not care she could fight with out them(her powers).
Kagome void of thought walked into a beautiful clearing, a meadow with long grasses and lunar flowers blooming, the stars and moon illuminating the scenery. Kagome stared at it her heart pained why does she not care about anything she wanted to enjoy life again really she did , what made her change? She thought. She was bemused though did not show it, she had finally decided to lay down in the tall grasses her hair longer blacker sprawled about the grass. Not far away Sesshomaru the lord of the Western lands watched her as she walked into the clearing standing there, minutes had passed until she started to lay down in the tall grasses. Sesshomaru before the battle joined forces with Inuyasha only to defeat Naraku, with Rin and Jaken they had camped with Inuyasha's group but Sesshomaru would only stay up and would watch the moon though he started to notice the human woman named Kagome also did not sleep only stare at the fire. Indiffrently he asked "Wench why do you not sleep?"Kagome had averted her gaze which were on him now. "I cannot sleep." she stated but before he could remark she spoke" life is like an hour glass, eventually everything hits the bottom ne Sesshomaru sama?" At this he narrowed his eyes "What do you speak about wench?" Kagome smiled a crooked smile "I am talking of myself Sesshomaru sama, I am not offending you."At this he quirked his eyebow "hmm." was all he said. After that night he could not but ponder on what she meant.
Kagome had already sensed it Sesshomaru was near and he knew she did too. Kagome sat up,swiftly Sesshomaru was behind her now "Wench I need to speak with you." he announced. "Wench." that was the word that always annoyed Kagome but that was her young self when she gave a damn care about anything. Now she over looked or ignored it though she did not care. "Yes Sesshomaru sama?" Kagome retorted,at this Sesshomaru growled low "Watch your tongue wench or your head will be rolling." Kagome abruptly stood up and stared into his eyes, his eyes were cold but her voidless eyes rivaled his. Sesshomaru gripped her throat and glared hard. "Wench do not try my patience, now tell me what you meant that night?" he demanded rather than asked her. Kagome's face faltered awhile then smiled Sesshomaru who saw this let go perplexed at her though he did not show it. Kagome slumped to the floor. "You know,"Kagome started, "The purpose of life is to live it yet why can I not any more?" Sesshomaru at this stayed silent staring at her. She looked up tears sliding down her face though she showed no expression. To this Sesshomaru instictivley held out his clawed hand. "Ninegen." Kagome stared at his hand then clasped it . "Stand."he demanded she did. Then without warning cupped her chin Kagome stared bewilderd stared back then he spoke"We all live with the objective of being happy;our lives are all the same yet different.(denis waitley)" with this said he announced "You shall come with me woman." Kagome's eyes widened. to be continued... :)
