"Sesshomaru? What's wrong?"
"Demon" he said then continued to growl
"I wish I had my bow"
Right then a demon jumped out at them, Sesshomaru jumped at the demon and bit the side of his neck. The demon started to scream as Sesshomaru poisoned the demon with his bite.
"Need to help... but how? I don't have anything!"
Sesshomaru got knocked to the side and hit the ground hard; Kagome grabbed hold of a sharp stick and prayed this would work. She stabbed the demon and a pink glow appeared at the end of the stick, it didn't kill him like a real arrow would have but it gave Kagome enough time to grab Sesshomaru and run. She ran until she came to a dead end, the demon came after them not much longer, Kagome knew they were in trouble. Suddenly there was a yellow light and the demon vaporized.
"Wind scar?"
Kagome looked up and saw a figure on top of the cliff but she couldn't make out who it was, the figure jumped down and landed gracefully in front of Kagome and Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru was starting to wake up in Kagome's arms and saw the person who was in front of them.
"Father?"
"Inuyasha's father..."
Kagome let Sesshomaru out of her grip and watched as Sesshomaru tried to straighten himself out but the demon had hurt his leg.
"Sesshomaru are you injured?" Kagome asked
"I'm fine" he grumbled
"Your bleeding" his father said
"Bleeding! We have to get you back to my bag"
"I don't need your help!"
"Yes you do, stop being proud for once and let me help you" Kagome snapped "now we only have to find my bag"
"Father tell her I'm fine"
"Listen to the priestess son"
"Priestess? You're a priestess?"
"Uhhh yeah... kind of anyway"
"But father priestesses are our enemies"
"I'm trying to help you!"
His father turned and started to walk away.
"Father where are you going?"
"To the priestess belongings, if you wish you can come"
"I don't need her help" he grumbled
Kagome frowned then bent down and picked up Sesshomaru making sure not to hurt his leg, he struggled for a while but soon stopped and fell asleep. Kagome followed his father to her bag where she laid him down on her sleeping bag, the fire was nearly out so she went to go get some more fire wood but she was stopped.
"Tend to my son" he said before walking into the woods
"How am I meant to do that if I can't see" she frowned
Kagome pulled her bag closer to the fire so she could see where her first aid kit was, once she pulled out her first aid kit she looked through it for the bandages and antibiotic cream. She took them over to Sesshomaru just as his father came out of the woods with more fire wood; he threw it on the fire then sat down on the ground. Kagome pulled up Sesshomaru's pants a little then put the cream and bandage on him then tucked him into her sleeping bag.
"He will be fine by morning"
"After all he survived Inuyasha's wind scar, his arm being chopped off, and the war god"
"Tell me what is your name"
"Kagome... what is yours?"
"You can call me Taisho, where are you from?"
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you" she mumbled
"Mi Lord" a small voice shouted
"Myoga?" Kagome asked as something small bounced into view
"You know Myoga?" Taisho asked
"Yeah"
"I have never met this human before" he said turning to face her
"Not yet anyway" Kagome corrected
"What do you mean?" he asked
"Ok do either of you know about the bone eaters well?" Kagome asked hugging her knees
"No" Taisho said looking interested
"I have heard about it, it is a well not far from here, the villagers will place a demon in it and all that will be left is bones"
"Really? That sounds most interesting"
"There is more to the well; it is also a portal to the future'
"Impossible, there is no way to get to the future"
"Myoga, tell me, what brings you here?"
"Huh? Oh I came to tell you that your wife dropped your son in a human village, the one not far from here, from what I could gather he was saved by a demon but the villagers are planning a search party in the morning"
"A demon? They thought I was a demon" Kagome asked insulted
"Sounds like they couldn't wait" Taisho said standing "well Kagome I thank you for helping my son but we must be going now"
"Going? You can't just leave me here alone!"
"The villagers will come and you will be fine" Myoga said
"Fine! There after me as well!"
Myoga and Taisho stared at Kagome confused.
"The villagers think I'm a demon because I saved Sesshomaru" Kagome sighed
"You're the demon?" Myoga asked
"What a strange little priestess you are" Taisho added in with a laugh "very well you may come if you so choose"
Kagome stood up and packed things back into her bag, Taisho grabbed hold of Sesshomaru who was still sleeping in Kagome's sleeping bag then walked up to Kagome and her bag. Kagome put her bag on her back then looked up at Taisho who was standing next to her.
"Hold on tight" he said wrapping his spare hand around her waist
Kagome at first didn't do anything but once they started lifting into the air she quickly wrapped her arms around his middle not wanting to fall. A type of mist or cloud formed around their feet and carried them away; Kagome looked behind her as she got further from the well.
"Maybe I should have asked to be taken back..."
Kagome was starting to yawn and slowly her grip was loosening, she couldn't help it after all the running she did today her body needed rest. Taisho realised this and lifted her up and wrapped his fur around her body, Kagome was still holding onto him slightly and fell into a deep sleep.
"What a strange priestess, helping a demon instead of killing it and then trusting one to take her somewhere"
Taisho landed on one of the balconies on his castle and walked into the room, the room he went into had a futon laid out on the floor and many different types of toys. He walked over to the futon and laid Kagome down pulling the blanket over her then he placed Sesshomaru down next to the futon still in her sleeping bag. Once he was sure they were both tucked in and safe he went over to the balcony and pulled over a curtain then slipped out the door.
