Arabian nights
"Hurry ladies! The show is about to begin." A rough voice warned from behind the red curtain. Kagome quickly peeked out of her wardrobe, noticing her master pacing back and forth in nervousness. Someone important must be in the crowd tonight.
---------------------------------------------------------
Sesshoumaru skimmed through the crowd lazily. He and the other lords had all come to watch the show. It appeared that it was very popular, seeing as how a few peasants got in too. Looking towards the stage, he waited.
---------------------------------------------------------
Kagome bit her bottom lip nervously. This was her first time performing in a foreign country. With shaking hands she pulled the curtain back slightly; so she could look over the crowd. There were a lot of people. Blanching slightly, she scanned through the different faces and races of the crowd and noticed a pair of striking golden eyes. Blinking in surprise, she noticed that those eyes were currently looking directly at her own. Blushing, she quickly shut the curtain and turned to face her fellow workers. With a nod from their master, they walked onto the stage and behind the curtain. Swallowing the lump in her throat, she took her stance.
---------------------------------------------------------
Sesshoumaru's piercing golden eyes continued to look over the crowd in mild distaste. He was only here because it would have looked bad on his reputation if he had not show up to an event that he was invited to, by a foreign lord. Resisting the urge to sigh he looked back up to the stage. Catching a woman peeking out of the curtain he studied her face. His eyes widened slightly at the sight of her eyes. They were the most brilliant electric blue that he had ever seen. And by the looks of it, this woman was not youkai. She was human. How odd for a human to have such peircing and oddly bright colored eyes. The woman blinked suddenly, pulling him from his thoughts. By the time he focused back on her, she had already disappeared back behind the curtain.
"Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to be amazed!" Yelled a rough voice from the front of the stage. It was a bear youkai, wearing odd clothing. His baggy pants, boots, and vest shirt suggested that he was foreign. He studied the crowds' faces before beginning again. "The Arabian Nights." He called out wistfully. Sesshoumaru raised a brow at this. So they were from Arabia?
Sesshoumaru watched as the bear youkai scurried off the stage. Looking back to the center of the stage, he found that the only thing there was red and black smoke mingling together to form fog. Suddenly, a smooth bare leg stretched out of the fog and into clear sight, fallowed by two arms. The arms moved in a rhythmic motion, causing everyone's eyes to fallow them. Suddenly, the leg lifted and stepped forward fallowed by another equally smooth and bare leg. A woman's frame came into view, but not her face.
She had some sort of see-through pink mask on, just leaving her eyes visible, even though her eyes were closed at the moment. Her clothes were definitely foreign as well. She wore a small red wrap around across her torso, leaving her stomach bare for all to see. A long red fabric hung from her sultry hips, reaching to the floor. When she turned to the side however, the fabric split up the sides to reach all the way up to her thigh, exposing her legs.
Wrapped around the fabric was another material; much like the one on her face, that was see-through. The only difference being is that it was covered in some type of shimmering substance, making it glint wildly when the light hit it just right. Snaking around the curve of her hips was some type of small pink obi, as far as he could tell.
On her wrists were different types of gold bangles jingling with each movement that she made Further up her arm was an odd bangle, it was placed at the bottom of her upper arm. It was in an eccentric design; golden as well.
The woman's raven locks were pulled back out of her face with only her bangs left to frame it. Her hair was pulled into a low ponytail, with to bands in it, separating the sections from one another. Atop her head was a small bead hanging from a tiny glimmering golden chain. Her lips and face were not covered in makeup, as far as he could tell. Looking down the rest of her body, he noticed that she also had no shoes on, exposing her tiny feet. Wrapped around her delicate ankle was another tiny golden chain, except this time it did not have a bead or any other decoration on it.
Trailing his eyes back up her body he reached her face. Staring at in intently, he noticed her beautiful features. Her skin color was obviously darker than the average Japanese persons was, but not too much darker. She was only about a shade darker, making him question her heritage. While studying her features, he noticed that her eyes had finally opened. Surprisingly, they were the same eyes as before. Electric blue.
