The Hime Trap
AN: I do not own Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, Inupapa. Rumiko Takahashi does and - *breaks off into sobs*
Kagome Higurashi considered herself to be a generally intelligent girl. Granted, she had her moments - but overall, she wasn't an absolute idiot.
As she stared at her new husband, who seemed to be cringing in anticipation of her reaction to what he had just said, she was forced to reevaluate her prior convictions. She had married Inuyasha. She was a complete and utter moron.
"Inuyasha…. SI-"
Watching in delight, as he flinched at the mere sound of her voice, Kagome decided that treating *her* pet dog like one of Pavlov's would suffice in this case.
Growling irritably at the cowering hanyou, she stormed away muttering under her breath about 'stupid dogs who called their wives fat.'
It didn't take her long to end up back at the well that had been the catalyst to her entire future, and the very reason she had met her husband, although she would have liked to refer to him as an ex at the moment.
"Kagome-sama!"
Turning, Kagome couldn't restrain her smile at the sight of Rin tearing through the trees with a new silk kimono clutched in her tiny fingers.
"SESSH-"
"-omaru sama brought it for you?" She finished softly and Rin beamed, nodding enthusiastically.
"I didn't know Onii-san was visiting you today?" Kagome said, wracking her brain to try and remember if, the last time he had visited, Sesshomaru (while staring disgustedly at her) had said anything about returning so soon.
"He said he didn't want Inuyasha-sama to know, so he wouldn't have to see him." Rin recited matter of factly and, in that moment, Kagome had to admit that she agreed strongly with Sesshomaru.
"Kagome-sama, would you like to play a game with Rin?" The little girl asked bashfully and Kagome realized that Jaken must have been a rubbish play mate for her all these years. Struck with a sudden vision of Jaken setting a game of Monopoly on fire because he didn't win, screaming 'HOW DAREEEE YOUU,' at the heavens, she fought to stifle a laugh.
"Of course Rin-chan! I would love to. How about we play a game of tag?"
Rin gave a delighted nod, looking enthralled as Kagome began to explain the rules to her. After confirming that she understood everything, Rin launched forwards, tapping Kagome lightly on her hip and streaking away, giggling madly.
Laughing indulgently, Kagome feigned great exhaustion while she chased Rin, revelling in the girl's excited yells. After finally catching her, Kagome sat down on the edge of the old well that had brought her there and pretended to catch her breath as Rin pouted at having been caught again.
When she came to tag her again, Kagome attempted to slide away from her, her foot catching on a root near the base of the well, and was thrown off balance.
Teetering on the edge for what seemed like ages, Kagome had a split second view of Rin's terrified face and saw her lips move as she screamed for Inuyasha. Then she was falling backwards, mouth open in a shrill cry as an eerily nostalgic blue light enveloped her just as her husband tore through the trees frantically, roaring her name.
Kagome was gone.
AN: I know this is short but its solely introductory and I don't want to jump into the action first thing. Plus, it's my first inuyasha FF so bear with me plz and thx
