Authoer Note: This is a Kaname and Sesshomaru pairing for the game Secret of the cursed mask/犬夜叉 呪詛の仮面 alright. ^^ They are my favorite pairing the game and I know this story is a bit weird but I just started writing it with the thought of the Time Traveler's wife in mind kind of thing except he's lived through all those years waiting for Kaname to be born into the world so when she goes into the feudal era with Utsugi's shikigami, he can convince her to stay there with him forever by finding the shards of the shikon jewel and in the end making a wish upon the jewel to keep her there and maybe even turn himself mortal for her. :O
Disclaimer: I do not own anything D; Rumiko Takahashi owns all inu characters including Kaname.
1995
It's been five years now, the baby I met in 1990 was now a child just starting school for the first time. In those five years I stayed close but in the shadows always watching over her. She stood in the pebbles in front of the shrine.
"Mooom! We're gonna be late!" she cried out as she made a small scowl on her face, while her hands gripped onto the straps of her little red backpack. Her mother came running out.
"Hold Kaname!" her mother cried out as she pulled out a small camera. "Here just give mommy a cute little pose then we can go. I have to document everything." Her mother stated giddily. Kaname just left out a small sigh and then held out her hand in a sailor moon fashion and did the piece sign. –click - the deed had been done.
"I still think it's too early for our little girl to start school!" Kaname's father called out from the Shrine. Though in truth as I had been watching the family over the years I know he'd prefer her to never leave the house. Boy if he knew that I had plans to take her away from them forever… Well we won't get into that just yet. Kaname's mother took her hand and the two of them headed down the steps to the shrine and waited by the bus stop, where I had secretly jumped down to before they even noticed.
Many of my kind would be laughing at me at the moment if they knew that I had been secretly flowing a human child around for the last five years though she never really had gone anywhere before so being unseen was easy.
"Are you nervous Kaname? Her mother asked her as the bus came round a turn. Kaname shook her head her short little pigtails swing this way and that.
"No, I can't wait to go and play with everyone!" she called out cheerfully as she glanced over at me quickly. Though when our eyes met she turned away. The screeching brakes of the bus came roaring toward us and the doors opened. I let Kaname and her mother get on first and then I followed. Kaname's mother looked at me every now and then most likely thinking I was a troubled senior in high school, with my silver hair. Before people began to dye their hair, I normally had to wear a wig to hide my unnatural color, but in this day and age it was okay.
The conversation with Kaname and her mother might have been hard to a normal human to hear with all the noise of the bus, but with my demonic ears I was able to pick up on ever word in great detail.
"Mommy, how come that boy has funny hair?" five year old Kaname asked as she pointed in my direction. Her mother quickly grabbed her daughters' hand.
"Kaname! It's not polite to point. As for his hair well maybe he just wanted it that color." She replied. The next stop came calling out over the intercom and Kaname and her mother both looked up.
"Is that us?" Kaname asked cocking her head to the side a bit as her mother tried to get her daughter to stand up and prepare to get off. I did the same. Though I was only hoping the mother would not take too much notice to me. I watched from a distance as Kaname's mother dropped her off at school and walked on down the street, with that I made sure no one was watching me and jumped high up into a tree on the school grounds. From there I watched as Kaname made friends and played with the other children. Not only that I got to see her through the window of her classroom where she was turning out to be a bit of the class clown. At least I believe that is what humans call that. I couldn't help but let out a few small laughs, at her actions. As I watched her all I could think was 'Hurry and grow up, my Kaname.'
