(I wrote more than normal to make up for taking so long to update...)
Sesshomaru walked into camp as eager eyes laid on him. "The Miko will live," he announced in a clear voice. Sighs of relief and cheers echoed throughout the clearing.
"Demon slayer," Lord Sesshomaru called. Sango quickly got up and moved to him. "You are friends with the Miko, are you not?" Lord Sesshomaru asked. Sango nodded quickly. "You will help her move around," he instructed her.
"Of course!" She replied without a second thought. Eyes wide, she bowed and replied, "I mean thank you Lord Sesshomaru." He nodded her off then sat down at the base of a tree.
Miroku put water on the fire as everyone settled down for the night. Everyone tried to sleep but they still worried about Kagome. Lord Sesshomaru could tell the group wouldn't be able to sleep.
Sango nudged Miroku and whispered, "Come walk with me. I can't sleep," Miroku kissed her forehead and they got up quietly.
Lord Sesshomaru watched them leave the camp. Lord Sesshomaru had heard them but he let them go. They knew to be careful and to be cautious for demons… including Inuyasha.
Sango and Miroku walked quietly out of camp and walked hand in hand when they disappeared into the trees. Using moonlight as a guide the two wandered to a known river next to it; slipping her shoes off to dangle her little toes, all the while smiling at Miroku. "Your beautiful my love," He whispered to her as he kissed her hand.
Sango blushed and smiled wider. "I love you Miroku" Sango said looking into his deep eyes.
"I love you to my dear Sango," He said as he leaned in for a kiss, touching her lips softly with his own.
Sango looked at him, eyes glowing with love. Sango kissed him, deepening the kiss. He groaned as he pulled her close, his hand moving up and down her back soothingly. Sango slipped her fingers into his hair pulling him closer.
Miroku smirked into the kiss and he fell back bringing Sango down on top of him.
"You devious monk," Sango laughed.
He smirked, moving the hair behind her hair as he whispered, "Want me to show you how devious I can be?" His hot breath on her ear and neck sent shivers down her spine.
Sango's eyes dilated at the thoughts that flooded her mind. She shied away, not use to the feelings or the heat that rose in her body.
Miroku could see the fear on her face. "At another time, when I can spend hours showing you," He winked to ease her fear of the new feelings. He kissed her softly, making Sango relax and kiss him softly back.
"What are we going to do Miroku? Kags is blind, Inuyasha is going to hunt us and try to kill us, not including finding the jewel shards before Naraku, then destroying that evil bastard, avenging our kin. …Miroku what if we can't kill Naraku and your wind tunnel sucks you up?" Sango began to panic and cry, tears cascading down her face.
"Shh! Calm down my sweet Sango. Kags will adapt, Lord Sesshomaru will protect us, don't doubt that for a second. We will continue finding shards and Naraku will be killed. As for me..." He grew quiet and whispered, "Baby I will stay here with you. Don't worry about me," He kissed her forehead, holding her to his chest. Sango nodded, a few tears hitting his chest.
It didn't take long for Sango to drift asleep. Upon hearing Sango's even breathing, Miroku slipped into unconsciousness himself.
The group woke up early, most were anxious to see Kagome. The group, with the exception of Lord Sesshomaru and Jaken, ran to Lady Kaede's hut.
Lady Kaede took a step outside; hearing their feet hit the dirt. Lord Sesshomaru and Jaken were curious, though they wouldn't admit to it, if the Miko was going to be okay.
Lady Kaede put a hand up for them to stop. The group stopped, standing in a half circle around the priestess.
"Lady Kaede… can we see Kagome?" Sango spoke up first.
Lady Kaede looked at them all, even Lord Sesshomaru and Jaken who had chosen to be a few steps behind them. A whimper could be heard from inside the hut. The group wanted badly to check on their companion. "She is awake but she is upset. A major sense is lost to her. Be careful," Lady Kaede told the group. She stepped aside to let the group in.
They walked in slowly, Kagome's head shot up. "Lady Kaede?" She asked. Kagome turned to see but realized she couldn't. Kagome was in a traditional Miko kimono with a white cloth wrapped around her eyes, typing in the back on top of her hair. A frown etched on her face and it looked as if she was going to cry.
"It's us Kagome," Miroku whispered.
"Guys?" Kagome outstretched her arms to find them.
Shippo ran up and jumped in Kagome's arms. Kagome, not expecting that, fell backward. "Kagome!" Sango yelled and as she finished 'ome' Lord Sesshomaru was in Kagome's path, holding her securely as he picked her up. Lord Sesshomaru set the confused girl down.
Kagome shot her hand out. "Wait! Don't tell me who you are… I need to you figure out," Kagome whispered the last part.
Lord Sesshomaru was shocked at the bold statement. Smart little Miko… Lord Sesshomaru thought. He stood completely still, it would be hard to guess who he was; he had no armor on.
Kagome stood up and placed her hands forward, touching his chest. Running her hands slowly down his chest and repressing a smile of gratitude for the feel of muscle under her fingertips. Meanwhile the group was in shock. Kagome giggled, "Well I know you're not Shippo, Sango, Rin, or Jaken."
Lord Sesshomaru watched as her small hands went down a little more before going back up, reaching his shoulders and down his arms.
Feeling stumped, Kagome bit her lower lip. Maybe I should have touched Miroku's chest… this would be so much easier, Kagome thought to herself.
Lord Sesshomaru caught himself enjoying her hands roaming his body and found himself almost blatantly staring at her small teeth biting her lower lip. Noticing his own reaction her leaned forward, causing Kagome to hold on his shoulders for support from the sudden movement, he whispered in her ear, "It was I Miko."
Kagome's mouth hung open and her face began to look like a tomato. "I… I had no idea! I'm sorry Lord Sesshomaru!" Kagome jumped back, tripping on the edge of the mat, arms flew backwards to catch herself. Lord Sesshomaru took her hands swiftly and pulled her back.
After steading her, Kagome whispered, "Thank you." She was blushing uncontrollably.
"You need to learn everyone's body Miko so you can identify people without them telling you who they are," Lord Sesshomaru told her. Kagome nodded.
"Get in line everyone," Kagome asked, the group doing as their told.
Shippo stepped forward, and Kagome moved her hands above his head and reached her hands down. As soon as her fingers touched the kits hair she smiled. "Hay Shippo!" She picked up her kit and hugged him. Kissing the top of his head she set him down. Shippo moved away, giving space for Rin.
Rin stood still and Kagome touched the young girl's head, feeling her hair and the strip of hair that she put in a ponytail on her head. Smiling again Kagome picked Rin up. "Hello Rin! Nice to se- nice to know you're here," Kagome smiled, hugging the girl before setting her down.
Sango took a step toward Kagome and stopped before her, waiting impatiently to hug her friend. Kagome put her hands out, feeling Sango's chest.
Miroku smirked and winked, he whistled, "Nice going straight for it I see."
Snatching her hands back, she blushed again. "I had no idea. I didn't mean to Sango I swear!" Kagome babbled out. Sango just flung her arms around her friend and hugged her tight. "Men haven't changed one bit!" Kagome nervously giggled.
Lord Sesshomaru cocked an eyebrow at her. Sango took a step back, hugging her again before Miroku stepped up.
"I know you're Miroku but…" Kagome began and she ran her hands down his chest. Miroku was smaller in size then Lord Sesshomaru. Miroku hugged her, holding back more of his comment
Lady Kaede took a step toward Kagome and Kagome smiled. "I know that's you Lady Kaede. No one else smells the way you do," Kagome observed. Lady Kaede smiled and hugged her.
"Good luck, child," She whispered. Kagome nodded and put her hand out to walk.
Miroku looked at Kagome trying to feel around. He handed her his staff. "Use this until we find you a walking stick," Miroku replied.
"Thanks," Kagome said with a smile. Feeling around Kagome began to walk forward, the group turned to leave. "Thank you Lady Kaede for your help… I wouldn't be alive without you," Kagome said.
"You're welcome child," Lady Kaede said as she looked at the small smile on her face. Kagome turned and Sango took her arm.
"I'll help you," She whispered to her friend. The group walked outside. Lord Sesshomaru walked in front, leading them to their campsite.
Once everyone sat down Lord Sesshomaru looked at them. "Today everyone starts training. I know you all are aware that Inuyasha will be back. We will spar with each other and we will teach other," Lord Sesshomaru looked around.
"What could we teach you Lord Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked, curiosity eating at her.
"You said men haven't changed. That implies you've been elsewhere. I have been in many places Miko. No one dresses in that… clothing… as you. You don't act like other females either. Where are you from Miko?" Lord Sesshomaru asked.
Kagome coughed and stuttered, "Wha-what do-o you mean Lord Sesshomaru?"
"Your hearing is fine Miko. Where are you from? As your pack leader I must know," Lord Sesshomaru said calmly.
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you," Kagome replied.
"Try this Sesshomaru," He replied.
Biting her lip she sighed, deciding he did have a right to know. Kagome began from the very beginning. Falling down the well, meeting everyone, also that she can travel back and forth between the times. She even told him about the future. The buildings, the schools, the history, everything she could think of she told Lord Sesshomaru.
Lord Sesshomaru sat there quietly, asking a few things here and there. She finished she took a swing of water and awaited his response.
"You will show me," He instructed.
How was that? :)
I hope you guys enjoyed that installment.
