Hi, I got one review. Thank you. So as promised...the second chapter.

Kagome awoke and quickly sat up, only to clench her head from the pounding pain.

"What the hell were you thinkin' Naraku coulda killed you?" Inuyasha barked from over head. "Get up were moving out." With that he turned and walked away.

"Sit Jerk" Kagome mumbled and true to her word the hanyou was planted to the ground, by the wrong end of course.

"What was that for bitch," Inuyasha spat dirt every time he spoke.

"You will be silent half-breed," Sesshomaru's cool voice washed over the raven head girl, and even seemed to lessen her headache only for the pain in her side to become evident.

Sesshomaru had listened as the miko's heart spend up and she started to stir. Every since she had saved Rin he had been no more the a few feet from her. Why she had done it? Well, that was why he was sticking around. He also had a debt to pay and would like to get it over with quickly. Especially sinces she was a mere human and a woman no less.

He watched as she sat up in obvious pain. As Inuyasha yelled at her and she winced, his control started to slip. He reeled it back in wanting to see what the Miko would do. True to what he thought Inuyasha was in the ground a few seconds later.

When Inuyasha started yelling again, Sesshomaru had had enough of his vulgar choice of words and tone. He watched as the young girl seemed to relax at his voice and his beast purred. Sesshomaru stopped in his tracks at that. NO, he must have imagined it. 'What this Sesshomaru does not imagine things. I must hurry and repay the debt I owe.' He thought as he made his way to the miko that was now clutching her side from the new found pain.

"Miko this Sesshomaru wishes for you to answer his questions."

Kagome almost rolled her eyes at his 'you will or die and enjoy it to' tone. She reached into her bag and pulled out a bottle of Tylenol and took to pills before answering him.

"Shoot," she said turning to him, he only raised an eyebrow and stared at her. Kagome sighed 'Feudal era people…. forget.' "You may ask me any questions you want. I'm listening."

"Why did you protect Rin?" He kept staring at her like a detective interrogating a serial killer.

Kagome was a little shocked to be asked that. She really didn't have a good answer it was just instinct. "Ah…Well…..She's just a kid. She's defenseless."

"Hn."

With that he turned and walked back to his original post. And Kagome couldn't help but think, 'Well that was weird'. She turned to see curious expressions on everyone's face. Apparently she wasn't the only one thinking that.

Over the next couple of days Sesshomaru joined the group, much to Inuyasha's JOY. Kagome already had to sit Inuyasha more times then she had ever in the course of coming through the well.

Kagome was already a little up tight because she had discovered that when she was closer to Sesshomaru she felt more at ease then even in her time. Now that was defiantly something to be wary about.

Not only that but what had happened the last time Naraku showed. It had bothered her that she would be along after this. It would seem that she would waste these years of her life for a round glowing ball. She sighed again.

Sango and Miroku seemed to sense that she was agitated and didn't bother talking not even to each other that the young miko was aware of. Although every once in a while they would have to stopped so Sango could put an unconscious monk on a transformed Kirara.

Sesshomaru noticed however that every time they stopped Kagome would grab her bag, a bot-till of water, then she would head off into the forest along, far enough so Inuyasha nor he, could smell or hear her. He really became curious after she came back with the smell of sweat mixed with blood and depression.

One particular night she didn't eat anything but instead grabbed her bag and headed off. Everyone watched as she walked until she was out of hearing range.

"What do you think she's doing Miroku? I've never seen her so depressed," the slayer was the first to speak.

"I don't know Lady Sango. I think that she knows what Naraku said was true and if she doesn't find something to gain from this journey she will, ultimately experience a major lose. Don't forget she has given up her schooling to be here and from what I've heard about where she's from that will cost her very dearly," Sesshomaru watched as the monk moved his 'Cursed Hand' to the slayers back side.

There was a slapping sound that echoed there the clearing.

"Now is hardly the time," Sango stood over him with her hand in a fist.

"It's cursed I tell you."

Sesshomaru would never admit it but it was rather entertaining to watch them, well not as entertaining as the miko was. Which brought him back to the conversation that had progressed while he was thinking.

"I think I'll go look for her and see what's up. Every time she comes back I smell blood on her," Inuyasha stated and made to pounce off when Sesshomaru's voice stopped them all.

"I'll go," He stated then walked off not leaving any room for argument that would have happened otherwise.

He followed her sent to a clearing where the most peculiar thing met his eyes. There the miko was, levitating off the ground her miko powers forming wings on her back. Instead of the purplish pink her power was a blue that matched her eyes that seemed to also glow from her power. It was a magnificent sight, until he saw the blood dripping from the wound on her side.

He flared his aura surrounding her with its might. She immediately lost her train of thought the wings disappearing sending her to the ground with a thump.

"What was that for?" She yelled her eyes still glowing a little, rivaling that of the stars as her background.

"What were you doing just now, Miko?"

"What do you care?" before the sentence was finished she was pinned to the ground with Sesshomaru straddling her hips holding her wrist above her head with his one arm.

"You will answer my question."

Kagome struggled a little but finally gave up. "I was training. Not that I know how but I thought of I could make wings with my miko energy I could defeat Kagura. And I could use it as a shield. It was just a theory but…..I was hoping not to be burden to anyone. I have no one Lord Sesshomaru. No one. Never have never will," tears fell down her checks to splash on the ground.

Before he realized what he was doing her bent down and licked the tears from her eyes.

"That is not true, Kagome," he said then stood up with her. After steadying her, he started to walk back to camp. "Tomorrow, I will help you train until I deem you able to handle her enemies. Then he turned and started walking again. He didn't know why he had just done what he did but for some reason he was glad he did.

Kagome smiled for the first time since the encounter with Naraku and followed him back to camp. Blushing all the way.

KK: So, I think this is worth at least to reviews. Tell me what you think. I realize a couple of mistakes in the first chapter. I will try and work on fixing that. Since this is all new to me I don't know how. :P I'll figure it out eventualy.

Sesshomaru: Hn

KK: What?

Sesshomaru: This Sesshomaru would never train a useless miko.

Kagome: Hay, i heard that buddy, and I will have you know...blah blah blah.

(KK sneaks off to the side.)

KK: That should keep them busy so I can write the next chapter without them breathing on my neck. Good bye lovely readers R&R. Hehe. Peace.
