Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha going into a small corner to cry myself to sleep
Unexpected Help
Kagome ran through the forest for her and Shippous' life, tears flooded her eyes as she recalled how Sango and Miroku had died, all because they had protected her from him, and now he was trying to kill her and Shippou as well. Just so that Inuyasha could be with Kikiyo. Well then we'll just have to kill Inuyasha now wont we? A small voice in Kagomes' head said evilly.
Yes, he has to die, but am I strong enough to kill him alone? Kagome thought as a branch cut her face.
We have to be, don't we? The voicesaid again, a voice broke her revere. "Oka-san why did Inuyasha-baka , what did they ever do to him?" Shippou asked angrily. Almost as if waiting for the question the hanyou jumped in front of them, Kagome stopped in the middle of a clearing. Shippou screamed while falling off Kagomes' shoulder. Speak of the devil, Kagome thought sarcastically.
"Inuyasha get away from me and my kit or I'll… I'll…" she trailed off trying to think of a good enough threat. She felt a demonic aura coming closer, one that felt familiar, Sesshomaru-sama! She thought excitedly.
"Or you'll what sit me? I had Kaede take that damned thing off before I ripped her heart out. And I know that you can't kill me, your not strong enough," Inuyasha gloated preparing to charge, as Sesshomaru's aura got stronger.
"Get away from us Inuyasha-baka!" Shippou shouted as he transformed into a big pink balloon-looking thing, while a two-headed dragon came into view above the clearing.
"Shut up little pest! This is time for the grown-ups to talk," Inuyasha said licking the blood off his claws. He charged, and ran into some thing very hard, and very sharp.
"You will not touch the miko brother," a stone-cold voice said as the dragon touched the ground. "Miko get on Ah-Un. Jaken take her back to the castle," Sesshomaru said as he took Tokijin out of his brother's abdomen with a sickly sound, as Inuyasha let out a gasp of pain.
"But milord…" Jaken started to protest.
"Jaken are you questioning my judgment?" Sesshomaru said as he wiped Inuyashas' blood off Tokijin.
"No milord it's just that… well I was wondering why we were… well…" Jaken trailed off wringing his hands nervously. Sesshomaru gave him a look, not just any look mind, the look, the look that made even Naraku a little edgy, (A/n this is no easy feat if you have ever seen Naraku in the series), the look that had spelled the end of countless demons, was now directed at the imp. "Un…Under…st…stood milord take her to the castle," Jaken stammered as he climbed on to the dragons back.
"Woman come! I am to take you to Lord Sesshomaru's castle," Jaken stated as Kagome and Shippou walked over to the dragon.
"D…datte Sesshomaru-sama aren't you going to come with us?" Kagome asked boldly, while trying to hold back the torrent of tears that threatened to flood her cheeks; she got into a comfortable position on the dragon.
"Ie I have to take care of something's here, but I will be at the castle before dark," the tall taiyoukai said as he turned to his brothers' corpse. A fitting end for him he never deserved the Tetsusaiga, he thought as he picked up the sword and for the first time pain did not shoot up his arm, it was more of a tingling sensation more than anything. That's curious, but no matter I have my inheritance. I just wish that it didn't hurt the miko the way it did, Sesshomaru thought.
What am I saying, I don't care what happens to her she's only a human, he thought confusedly.
Then why did you save her from Inuyasha? A small voice inside of his head snapped back at him.
Because he was a threat to my lands, he destroyed a village, and he would have killed her, he thought back coolly. Is that a good enough reason for you?
For now yes, the voice said smugly.
Who are you, anyway? Sesshomaru asked the voice with a voice so cold that it would have frozen water.
Baka!! I'm your conscious, the voice shouted as Sesshomaru jumped into the air, his wild silver hair flowing like that of an angel, a very mean very deadly angel.
Were you not me, I would have killed you for saying that, he told himself, as he summoned the youkai cloud.
back at Sesshomaru's castle
"Sesshomaru-sama!!!!" an orange blur shouted as they touched down in the middle of a beautiful field of flowers. Kagome was now on her back because the blur had tackled her. "Hey you're not Sesshomaru-sama!" the blur which Kagome now identified as a little girl pouted as Kagome sat up. "Oh well, do you wanna play with Rin?"
Kagome looked confused at this. "Umm… who is Rin?" Kagome asked sheepishly getting to her feet. The little girl burst out laughing, Kagome thinking that she had said something incredibly stupid blushed. "Uh… did I say some thing funny?" Kagome asked only to get a louder chorus of laughter.
"Oka-san I think that she is Rin," Shippou said, and at this the little girl nodded, still laughing incredibly loud.
"Oh okay, I under stand now. And yes I would love to play with you Rin-chan," Kagome said feebly, Shippou had an indignant look on his face that said quite clearly that he wanted to play as well. "That is if Shippou-chan can play with us," Kagome added tickling Rins' sides, which elicited a new round of laughter, from the small girl.
"Okay, oka-chan," the small girl said standing up. "Now what game should we play," Rin said suddenly serious.
"How about tag?" Shippou questioned innocently. Kagome had a blank look on her face that made it look like she would rather be alone in a dark room cut off from the rest of the world than in the middle of a field of flowers with a fox-demon child and a human girl.
"Hey Rin I have an idea why don't you show us our rooms, then you and Shippou can come back out," Kagome suggested with a smile, but the smell of tears attacked Shippous' nose.
Rin looked to be at a total loss for words, one minute the black haired woman wanted to play and the next she wanted to be alone, that was no fun but at least she would be able to play with the boy, so Rin decided to ask them their names.
Shippou, seeing the uncried tears in Kagomes' eyes spoke up, "I'm Shippou, and this is Kagome, she's my oka-san," the fox kit said puffing up his chest, this caused Kagome to giggle.
"Okay then I will call her oka-san as well, at least if that's okay with you oka-san," Rin said meekly, but her eyes said quite clearly that she would call Kagome anything that she wanted to. They approached the front door. Here Rin stopped and said, "Master Jaken please open the doors," Rin said in a strong commanding, but soft voice.
Kagome turned around to see that the sun had almost set. Sesshomaru I hope that you're back soon, she thought and as she thought about the taiyoukai a feeling that she normally only felt towards Inuyasha, or Hojo rose with in her. Is it possible that I have some feelings towards Sesshomaru? She asked her self.
"And what if I refuse?" the sound of Jaken's voice broke her revere.
"Then your pelt will adorn the mantle in the great hall," a strong cold voice said as Rin gave a shrill scream of pure delight.
"Datte Sesshomaru-sama, Jaken-sama is too ugly to be in such a place," Rin said sticking her tongue out at the green imp, as she hid behind Sesshomaru's kimono. "Outo-san?" Rin asked as she emerged from one of the folds in Sesshomarus' kimono.
"Yes Rin?" the demon lord replied looking into her brown eyes, as he opened the front door.
"Is Kagome going to be my oka-san?" she asked as they entered the entrance hall of the castle. When Sesshomaru didn't answer Rin looked worried.
"Do you want her to be you oka-san, Rin?" Sesshomaru asked as they walked up a flight of stairs.
"Yes please, outo-san, that is if Kagome-chan is willing," Rin stated as they rounded yet another corner.
"then miko from this moment on you are rins mother, " the tall gorgeous taiyoukai said as they walked up another flight of stairs. Kagome looked like she would have slapped Sesshomaru right then and there if she didn't have shipou and Rin holing onto her sleeves like they were a lifeline
"I would enjoy having Rin as my daughter," Kagome said as they came to a stop in front of a set of beautifully carved set of oak doors.
