"You called for me, Milord?" A kitsune said as she bowed in front of a tall and imposing inu daiyoukai.
"Hn. Sayoko, you are to bring this letter to the miko Kagome in the village of Edo. Do this as quickly as you can. This is a very urgent matter. You are to wait for her response." The daiyoukai, known to us as Sesshomaru, said monotonously to the kitsune we know now as Sayoko.
"Hai, Milord. It shall be done." With that, Sayoko stood, took the sealed letter, and disappeared in a flurry of sakura petals. Sesshomaru stared for a moment longer at the spot where the kitsune once stood, before turning back to his paperwork piled up on his desk.
-Scene Change-
In the village of Edo, within the home of the elderly miko Kaede...
"Oi, wench! A kitsune named Sayoko's here to see you. Something or other about that bastard of a brother that I have..." Inuyasha huffed crossly and grumbled under his breath as he walked back to his comfortable perch on the Goshinboku.
"Hm? I wonder what that was about..." Kagome looked confused for a moment before remembering the kitsune that was Sesshomaru's General. "Oh, Sayoko, huh... Well, better go see what all the fuss is about." She sighed, putting down the deer meat she was skinning.
Kagome walked to the Goshinboku and called out to Inuyasha. "Ne, Inu, where is she?"
Stiffening, she suddenly felt a strong presence of youki behind her. "I am right here, Kagome-sama. I bear a message from Milord Sesshomaru-sama."
Turning around, she saw Sayoko bowing deeply. She sighed resignedly, knowing that she would never be able to convince the stubborn General to stop calling her so formally.
"Hello, Sayoko-san. What is the message?" Kagome tilted her head inquiringly.
Sayoko glanced at Inuyasha, somewhat hesitant to hand over the letter that her Lord entrusted to her while in the presence of the brash hanyou.
Making a decision, she stood at attention and said, "Here is the message." She handed over the sealed letter and bowed again. "Milord instructed me to wait until you respond to his letter."
"Very well, Sayoko-san. Would you like to come in for tea?" Kagome took the letter, curious about what Sesshomaru, THE Killing Perfection and her sensei, could possibly want with her now.
"I couldn't possibly impose-" Kagome immediately cut her off by raising her hand. "You would not impose upon us, Sayoko-san. You are always welcome here." She smiled gently at the hesitant kitsune.
Blinking, Sayoko smiled half-heartedly back. "Very well, Kagome-sama. If it pleases you."
Walking together, Kagome and Sayoko headed back to Kaede's home.
Author's Note:
Hi! This is my first ever fanfiction, so please go easy on me? You know what, never mind that. Tell me what you think. Give it to me bluntly. I need to know what I have to improve on. Just please try not to curse?
I made the rating T so that I could do what I want, but I didn't pick M mainly because I'm not really planning on writing any lemons (plus I suck at writing them). Anyways, I hope you enjoyed reading it! Btw, I'm sorry, but I haven't thought of a title yet, so yeah... It'll probably pop in my mind by the time I've written the 5th chapter or so...
Okay. I think I've ranted long enough. Please rate and review! That little button down there is so lonely... TT^TT
This is Tricia, signing out~! See ya in the next chappie~! ^.^V
