Chapter 3
Choices: hanyou or taiyokai
Kagome jumped over the lip of the well only to be met by the angry face of inuyasha.
"sit" she said venom dripping from her voice. Inuyasha was pulled to the ground but because of the hate that was coming from kagome's aura it cause the beads to break but kagome could care less all it meant to her was she was free of the stupid half-breed. She walked over the twitching body making sure that her high-heeled boot dug into his very sensitive ear. Shippo just giggled and blew a raspberry at inuyasha.
Kagome ran through the forest to tell kaede that the beads had broken and to tell the old women to tell her other friends that she a shippo would be travelling also from now on and that she wished them all the best.
"kaede ?" kagome said as she walked into the hut.
"aye child" kaede said to kagome
"I just wanted to tell you that the beads have broken and that shippo and I will be travelling on our own from now on and I would appreciate it if you told sango and miroku ." she told the old miko.
"as ye wish child I take it that ye'll nay be commin back it'll ye finished your job then" they old woman said knowing kagome all to well.
"that's right" kagome said
"well I'll be seein ye then chill good luck tae ye" kaede said giving kagome a quick hug
"now be off with ye chill before inuyasha comes back" she aid and with that kagome and shippo had left.
Walking through he forest path kagome and shippo were silent keeping a look out for any of naraku's demon's. when she sensed a strong aura coming from behind her and it was and aura she had seen before. She turned round just as the demon spotted her.
"sesshomaru" kagome said
"inuyasha's wench" sesshomaru snarled.
"Ha! Don't make me laugh inuyasha is nothing but a hot headed idiotic half breed who doesn't know what's good for him and if I ever see him again I'll purify his sorry ass to hell and back" kagome stated
"hn glad to see you've came to your senses miko" he said and was about so say more to her but he was interrupted but his ward who had just spotted shippo.
"SHIPPO!" she squealed making both shippo and sesshomaru wince due to there sensitive hearing.
"rin not so loud please" sesshomaru said as rin and shippo began chasing each other.
"sorry my lord" rin giggled as shippo jumped on her head.
Noticing that shippo were going a bit to far a head of her kagome made to shout him back but sesshomaru stopped her.
"leave them they'll be fine" he said
" but.." what sesshomaru did next cu her off.
"jaken go make sure rin and the kit come to no harm"
"yes milord" jaken said before scurrying away after then children.
"why did you do that?, I mean I can understand rin but why shippo?" kagome asked the taiyokai.
"rin enjoys his company she would be upset if anything was to happen to him" sesshomaru said "witch is why you and your ward will travel with us" he continued taking his gaze from the children a looking at kagome " that is if you and the kit would like to join us" he said seeing the shocked looking on the girls face. After he said this he let the girl think and took the time to look over her new attire it was defiantly better that her cloths of old this outfit not only covered her up t showed her statue as a miko and it was of the times. Witch he was pleased to see.
"ok we'll join you lord sesshomaru" she said flashing him a smile witch sent a shiver down his spin.
"very well lets be on our way, I'll be glad of the company lady…" he stopped realising that he didn't actually know they girl's name.
"kagome she said giving him her beautiful smile once more.
"yes I'll be glad of the company lady kagome he said again staring to walk down the forest path" you have to be better than the ass kissing tad " said
kagome giggled at this witch was music o the inu yokai's ears. What was this girl doing to him with her strong flowery sent and her picture perfect face and her musical laugh it was bringing him to his knees and there was nothing he could do to stop it. She had always do this to him witch is why he had asked if she would join him, he thought that if she got to know him then she might agree to be his mate one day, but inuyasha had always prevented him getting close to her but now that she had ditched his half-witted brother they had a chance to get to know each other.
It had been 3 months since kagome and shippo had joined sesshomaru, rin, jaken and ah-un. It had been anenjoyable time and kagome and sesshomaru had been spending a lot of time together mostly sparring to try an improve kagome's skills in battle he had even given her a katakana. And began to tech her the rule of a swordsman.
At this moment in time rin and shippo were playing in a field with jaken watching over them whilst sesshomaru and kagome were sparing. Sesshomaru had just knocked kagome's sword out of her had witch had left her defenceless, she backed up against a tree and sesshomaru had his claws at her throat, kagome gulped before deciding what to do. She looked into the taiyokai's eye before for bearing her neck to him.
His eyes widened at this but she did not see because she had her eye down. So his miko knew the inu code he was impressed. A growl came up from chest but as kagome listened she realised it was not the growl of displeasure witch she usually got when she had gotten corned it was on of arousal. His hand dropped from her neck and she looked up just as a voice broke the silence.
"keep away from my mate" a familiar voice sounded throughout the clearing. Kagome's eye blazed fire and sesshomaru new that she was in a killing mood. He handed her, her katakana which she sheathed preferring to purify the sorry half-wit.
"INUYASHA!" she growled just loud enough for inuyasha's hearing to pick up.
"kikyo?" he whimpered
she smirked "wrong" she trough the bow to the ground and pulled out her sword charging at inuyasha, but inuyasha saw this and unsure of how his attacker was he prepared to fight back. Sesshomaru stayed in the shadows sure that inuyasha had not yet seen him for if he had then he would have bypassed kagome, he would not intervene till he thought that kagome was in trouble because he knew she liked to prove herself to him even though she had no need to.
Inuyasha could not keep up with kagome's movements as they were fast and swift similar to his brothers but more feminine. Kagome had the advantage in more than one way though not only could she read his movements like a book he had not yet figured out who she was. That was until she herd a low growl from the tree line she sheathed her sword and grabbed her bow before going over to the trees were sesshomaru came out. Kagome stood beside him and he placed his hand on her shoulder.
"Good job miko" he said she hated it when he called her miko because it meant that he was either angry with her or he was very disappointed in her but this time he was doing it just to confuse inuyasha even more.
"thank you my lord she replied when she said this inuyasha's eye's went wide and his mind was going think a high-speed train. This girl looked like kikyo and was a miko and he new that voice but were?, were had he heard it before.
The miko smirked again "maybe this will help you inuyasha" she cooed
Then she shouted the word that would make him remember who she was. "SIT!" that was all that echoed through the clearing for about a millisecond before inuyasha started his rant.
"KAGOME WERE THE FUCKING HELL HAVE YOU BEEN AND WHAT IN NARAKU'S NAME ARE YOU DOING WITH MY FUCKING BASTARD OF A BROTHER?, YOU COULD HAVE BEEN KILLLED HE PROBABLY ONLY WANTS TO KEEP YOU AS A RUT THEN KILL YOU AF……."his words were cut short as a 5 arrows flew towards him pinning him to a near by tree.
"DON'T YOU DARE SPEAK ABOUT MY LORD LIKE THAT!" she bellowed slowly walking towards him.
"kagome what do you mean your lord, I don't understand " he pleaded for he had seen the murderous intent in her eyes.
"give me one good reason why I shouldn't purify your hanyou ass right no!" she shouted. Pulling another arrow and pouring her miko energy into it but was stopped by another low growl as sesshomaru came up behind her. Inuyasha recognised that growl it was use to call mates of pack members, worried that kagome had been so stupid as to mate with sesshomaru he use it nose to see if he could smell him on her he couldn't so he must regard her as a member of his pack. And bye the looks of it kagome had accepted her position as she understood what his actions meant.
Inuyasha sighed "I'm sorry kagome I never meant to hurt you it was mating season I lost control" inuyasha had tried to explain but sesshomaru though it best to make a point.
"that may be the case inuyasha but if I am not mistaken you had already taken the other miko so it would have been her that you craved and I right" he said
"yes but she looked so like kikyo..." inu said
"their scents are totally different you would have known it not to be her little brother, now if you don't mind kagome and I will be on our way" he said holding his arm out to kagome witch she took lovingly as the walked away.
"hey how do I get down !"inuyasha shouted to them. They stopped and kagome turned her head and shouted back to him "get your clay pot to help you !" as herlord and her walked into the forest.
