With the days passing idly by, Kagura couldn't help but feel uneasy, not because of the obvious boredom, but because a nagging feeling suggested that this was the just the calm before the storm. Sitting on her feather she contemplated what she was going to do next, even then trying not to think of anything involving Naraku
Uh shit!! His ugly face again, She tried to calm down as a shiver went down her spine; think nice thoughts, hmm...silver hair, amber eyes, tall and. Damn!! Not him. I am not a silly little girl falling for a...a...THE only good looking guy I have seen so far.
"Kagura" said a calm voice behind her.
"What the..." she hadn't felt the presence of the owner and still couldn't. "Sesshoumaru, to what do I owe the pleasure of your company" answered Kagura in her usual sarcastic tone. I still can't feel his presence, is he an illusion? Usually Kagura wouldn't have hesitated to slice the illusion and the illusionist with her wind blades, but the supposed illusion being Sesshoumaru, kept her from taking any action. If Sesshoumaru were real what would he do?
"What do you want?" she said a bit more seriously. When Sesshoumaru didn't make a move she flew closer to him to see if he was actually real. She still couldn't detect any youki or smell his unique smell. Bringing out her fan, she directed the wind all around her to reach her so she could get a whiff of whatever demon-illusionist that was responsible for Sesshoumaru's appearance. His appearance flawless as usual, hmm...no youkai around, what's going on? Jumping off her feather, she stared at Sesshoumaru waiting for him to say something; on not getting a response she walked closer and closer to him as his eyes watched her with slight interest. Illusion or not, I need some entertainment. "Sesshoumaru say something" she said the moment she was just too close for comfort. Again no answer. Deciding on her next action she reached out and touched his lips, staring at his eyes which didn't flinch at her touch "Hmm wish you were real" On second thought I wouldn't do this if he was real would I.
"Who said I wasn't real?" shocked and embarrassed, Kagura immediately let go of him and backed away to make space between them not noticing the fact that he read her mind.
"But... but..." she spluttered, trying to get herself composed, but her heart, beating in Naraku's Jar, was way too fast for comfort.
Meanwhile Sesshoumaru calm as ever, quirked an eyebrow at her, noticing her blush. "Such emotions aren't fitting for a demon, you do know that?"
The voice was that of a woman not Sesshoumaru's and he dissolved into thin air. "He wasn't real?" Kagura couldn't help feel disappointed by this and then intimidated by the youki surrounding her, the youki that she had so far failed to notice. "Who the fuck are you?" she asked putting all her effort in at trying to sound like her usual self. "Why don't u recognize me? I've known you all your life," said the smug voice.
Kagura couldn't hide her surprise at those words and waved her fan gently to locate the intruding voice. There was no one around, no youkai or human for about 3 miles radius. With a puzzled frown she asked, "Where are you?"
"Why can't u guess?" said the voice with mock girly innocence.
"What kind of a demon are you? If you are some fucking moth demon or a stupid tanuki I will separate your head from your body if you don't show yourself right now"
"As I am none of those I will not" This time Kagura noticed a certain difference in the way that the woman was speaking, just to be sure she spoke up one more time "So you know me?"
"Yes and can you guess who I am?" And Kagura was sure her ear was not deceiving her this time. Her ears weren't even responsible for hearing the woman....
"Yes I figured it out"
"Who am I then?"
"Me"
