This story idea was born after watching the Scorpion King with the Rock and Kelly Hu in it. This takes place right before Kaijinbo shows up with the sword Sesshoumaru has commissioned
Kagome was pretending she was a regular priestess. Inuyasha had just got through killing Goshinki a few days ago and the group was waiting for Totosai to return a repaired tetsuiga. It was also his human night.
'Why couldn't I have stopped it? I mean I could have being a sorcerer and all but I don't want anyone to find out as all kinds of demons would try and use my powers' Kagome thought before having another vision where Goshinki's fangs had been used to wield a sword and it was coming this way.
''I'm going into the forest. I'll be back in a second,'' she said and after she made it a good ways away from her friends she made her clothes change so that she was now wearing a belly dancer sort of outfit. Her breast and butt and unmentionable were covered in red silky material. She had gold beads dangling down to her belly button from her bra covering. She had two strips of material that came out from a string around her waist to her ankles.(if you've ever seen the Scorpion King then you'll know what kind of outfit)Her fingernails were a shiny emerald green and she had gold coloring on her arms with black kanji written all over and had a silver circlet around her head with a emerald star dangling on her forehead. Her hair also had emerald highlights throughout her hair. She also had bracelets on each leg that clanked when she moved. She also had an emerald stripe on each shoulder starting from the top of her shoulder going to situate under each breast. Her golden sandals completed the look. After being changed into sorceress clothes she took off where she felt the energy coming from.
She had to hurry and finish this or the others might join in and fight or worse discover her secret. She stopped about three miles from the campsite and she was completely surrounded by trees. A bright red light was speeding her way and she could make out the shape of a man and a sword. The man stopped several feet from her and raised the sword. When it was brought down Kagome brought her glowing white hand up to stop it.
''You are possessed and will be stopped,'' Kagome stated. She waved her hand at him flinging her power outwards and he fell. She heard gasps and turned to find her friends staring in shock at her.
''How the hell did you do that wench?'' Inuyasha asked. He was of the mindset that Kagome was weak. It was strange to see she had that kind of power. It also brought doubt into his mind but he pushed those thoughts away for another time.
''You're a sorceress aren't you? Why didn't you tell us?''Sango looked at Kagome hoping that she trusted them enough. Kagome was like a sister to her and she would always stand by her side.
''I didn't want anyone to know, but now you that you know I might as well stay like this,'' Kagome then turned around and knocked Miroku out for trying to sneak up and grope her. ''We'll have to stay here until the owner of this sword shows up,'' she said looking at the sword that was giving off an incredibly evil aura.
''Why?'' Inuyasha asked.
''Just because I said so,'' Kagome said sitting down and getting comfortable. Though her clothes were very skimpy, she wasn't the least bit cold.
''Hey, Sango, how did you know what I was?'' Kagome asked.
''Because of what you're wearing,'' she replied.
''Oh'' Kagome said
''What kind of powers do you have though. I've only heard about sorceresses and they were said to hold great power but to be extinct,'' Sango inquired.
Kagome hung her head and when she rose back up there was a sad expression on her face. ''I am the last of my kind and as to my pow...''she was cut off as they felt a blast of power behind them. They turned to see the dragon that Sesshoumaru was always riding using a lightning attack on the sword. When the power died down they saw the sword was still there surrounded by a red demonic mist. Kagome was the first to gasp and turn to Inuyasha but to her relief he was hanyou again. Daylight was starting to appear over the horizon.
''How sad to be the last of your kind and to travel with a wretched half breed,'' Sesshoumaru stated. He had landed right beside the sword.
"Why the hell are you here Sesshoumaru? What do you want?" Inuyasha asked. He was nervous because that old coward still hadn't returned with his sword.
"I have come for the sword," Sesshoumaru stated. It was at that moment that they heard the sound of a cow.
"You must not touch the sword Sesshoumaru. The evil of the sword will overpower you," Toutosai stated as he landed. Without even looking at Inuyasha he tossed the newly reformed tetsuiga to him.
"As if I would be that weak, I am a lord," Sesshoumaru stated grasping the hilt of the sword. The group watched with baited breath as he drew the sword and held it in front of him. They were all shocked with the aura of Sesshoumaru swirled and pushed the sword's aura completely into submission.
"Draw your sword halfbreed. There is something that I wish to test," Sesshoumaru said. He then rushed at Inuyasha.
'Oh no. If they fight now Inuyasha will lose himself to his demon blood,' Kagome thought seeing a vision of Inuyasha's dead body.
Without thinking she willed a sword to appear and blocked Sesshoumaru. She had not had any time to brace herself for the impact so her legs were bent under the force and her two strips of cloth were touching the ground. When she looked into his face she saw him smirking.
''My my, a sorceress still alive. I thought the whole race was extinct. What luck! I'll obtain a new powerful sword and a sorceress in one day, ''Sesshoumaru stated.
Kagome's eyes widened. 'He knows. I must not submit or bow to him. To do so will give him power over me, 'she thought. Those who could get or force a sorceress to bow before them claimed them as their own and she would have to do what they said. 'I will not be anyone's' she thought angrily and pushed him back getting gasps from everyone around her. Even Sesshoumaru's eyes widened before he smirked again. ''I belong to no one!'' Kagome stated backing away as his fist meet her sword instead of her face. He received a shock for touching the sword. She then raised her sword to her side and faced Sesshoumaru. As soon as she settled into a battle stance her jewel glowed and her eyes clouded over. She was having another vision.
A laugh escaped Sesshoumaru as this was the time to make her bow. 'Her power will be mine and she will be treated well if she behaves properly' Sesshoumaru though. The first step was her submission. He charged but stopped short as there were tears coming from her eyes. 'What is she seeing,' was everyone's thought. Kagome finally opened her eyes and turned to face her friends. 'If i stay they will die' she thought. With tears streaming down her face she knew what she must just do. She only hoped everything turned out all right. 'I hope my friends can forgive me,' she thought.
''What's wrong Kagome-chan?'' Sango asked. Kagome glanced at her but turned around not being able to look at her with the vision of her disassembled body still fresh in her memory.
She was now facing Sesshoumaru. She took slow graceful steps towards him and all you could hear was the clank of her jewelry on her feet. She stopped in front of him and raised her sword to where it was parallel in front of her body. Everyone finally got a good look at her sword and stared at it. The sword and hilt were made of pure silver. There were two emerald diamonds with one in each side of the hilt.
Her name was written the length of the sword in a bright emerald color. It stood out and made the sword seem even more ethereal. She then twirled the sword to where it was pointed down and raised it up above her head as far up as she could raise it and then thrust it into the ground before kneeling before Sesshoumaru with her forehead touching the hilt of the sword. Her eyes were locked onto the ground. Her friends stared wide eyed and had their mouths agape. Her submission was written in the arrogant look of triumph in Sesshoumaru's face and everyone finally comprehended what was happening. Kagome stood up only after she felt Sesshoumaru touch her head. She faced her friends one last time with tears in her eyes before she was grabbed and taken. No one had even a chance to react or say anything.
She closed her eyes to rest because she knew he would stop at some point and question her. She had resigned her own fate when she submitted to him. Her sword was held close to herself as she thought, 'At least he can't take my weapon away.'
Just as she had guessed he would, he stopped and put her down. She sat and crossed her legs and watched him do the same across from her. He held out his hand motioning for her to do the same and she held up her hand knowing what was going to happen. A solid gold charm bracelet that would make noise when she moved was put onto her hand. He placed it on her and sealed it with his acid. It had pure amethyst crescent moon charms dangling from the bracelet that signaled who she served. ''You will be treated well unless you give me reason. You will come to all my meetings with me and accompany me everywhere except when we bath but only a rock will separate us then,' 'he said leaving no room argument.
She bowed her head showing she would comply. ''Yes my lord,'' she wasn't really used to saying my lord to anyone and it came out weird. He smirked knowing she wasn't use to it. He could already tell she was a free spirit by nature.
''You do not have to call me my lord. Just Sesshoumaru will be fine given a few exceptions but do not overuse that. Is that clear?'' he asked.
''Yes,'' she said bowing her head knew the questions were coming. She was grateful for the name thing. She knew that in a public situation she would have to address him formally but at least in private she would be spared that.
''How is it that you survived when the rest or your race died and what is your name?' he asked.
''My parents sent me to the future and blocked my powers until I turned 16 which was about 3 months ago. My name that everyone knows me by is Kagome Higurashi but my real name is Kagome Starlett. I have both full powers of a sorceress from my dad and full miko powers from my mother. My father's name was Masurumaru and my mom was...''she paused taking a deep breath before revealing her mother. ''Midoriko was the legendary miko of war and was also the creator of the shikon no tama which I must now put together,'' she said. No one knew this piece of information as she was very small when she was sent away.
His eyes widened slightly at this piece of information and then he looked at her sword and remembered his earlier attempts to touch it but it repelled him. ''Where did your sword come from?'' he asked looking at it.
She smiled and said, ''I created it out of my powers. Even a human cannot touch it as it responds to only me. I can make it disappear and appear with a simple mind command. My memory came back when I turned 16 and I created it then. This is the only time I've allowed someone to see it and live. It only comes out when I am forced to and there is a serious threat present,'' she stated. This was a compliment to Sesshoumaru in a way as she perceived him as a real threat and took him seriously.
He looked at her and knew that what she wore was typical of a sorceress. "Do you have any more clothes that are appropriate for a sorceress to wear beside that one?'' he asked. She smiled and nodded yes. ''Where are they?'' he stood up and turned to the side as she raised her hand. A small flash of light and a portal appeared.
''On the other side,'' she stated and picked her sword up and stepped into the portal. His first glimpse through the portal showed an extremely gorgeous room inside a cave.
So what do you think of the revision of the first chapter? It has been over five years since I wrote this story and I am amazed and shocked at the number of mistakes in this. I am hoping this posted wrong at the time because it seemed as if sentences were missing. If you spot any more mistakes, feel free to let me know. I am currently working on the other chapters and they should be about one to two chapters a week until fully revised and then I make no promise as to how often it is updated. In this version of the story, Kikyou has not given the piece of jewel that Kagome had to Naraku. Kagome still has it.
