Chapter 3: Someone call the fire department! This demon's on fire!

Last time: "MAMA!" Shippo exclaimed happily and jumped into her arms. He snuggled into her arms as Kagome smiled and Sango sighed happily. Everything was okay now right?

"You're back." Sesshomaru said in an indifferent voice.

'You know you're happy…' his beast grumbled.

"Hello Sesshomaru. Fancy seeing you here." Kagome said and a smirk only seen by Kagome appeared on Sesshomaru's face.

WARNING: LIME IN THIS CHAPTER…come to think of it, an interesting lime too...expect ooc-ness (major ooc-ness)

Beast in bold…

I don't own Inuyasha by the way… Anyway, Enjoy reading everyone!


"Indeed." Sesshomaru said. Inuyasha blinked at Kagome like he'd never seen her before. Must have been the outfit. Seriously why did all/some demons act like Hentai's?

"Now why were the both of you trying to kill each other just now hm?" Kagome said in a pissed off voice.

"It's his fault!" Inuyasha said jumping up and pointing at Sesshomaru childishly.

"Indeed." Sesshomaru said in a bored tone.

Shippo then just had to say, "Momma they were arguing and Inuyasha dropped me and hurt me!"

"Inuyasha…" Kagome said in a warning voice. 'Eeep!' Inuyasha thought and a smirk appeared on Sesshomaru's face. Inuyasha was so going down but she didn't sit him. "I don't need to waste my breath on you baka." And Kagome smiled at him.

'…………..'

"Okay anyway now that you're here wench. We found sightings of jewel shards near the west so we're on our way there. It's a good thing that you came when you did. So we're going to leave his as…(Inuyasha pointed at Sesshomaru) here and then be on our way."

"But I'm not dressed!" Kagome said looking down at her purple ensemble.

"Yes you are!" Inuyasha interjected pointing at her.

"I'm changing NOW!" Kagome said. "Sango a little help here…cause you know I'm a little inj…" She shut her mouth and glanced at Sesshomaru. She knew he'd be pissed if he saw her wince or even saw her bruise. Alas she didn't notice that he had seen her flinch and wince as she walked, Sango scurrying after her.

"Wait! Who the bloody hell told you that you can just saunter..."

"Sit."

(BOOM!)

"Well said, Kagome-sama." Miroku said dusting off his robe from the 'Inuyasha dust.' And then started to follow Sango and Kagome.

"$&!$$&&&$$& MONK!" Inuyasha yelled.

(A/N: Translation: WTF do you think you're doing following them Monk?)

He was cut off by Sesshomaru's cold voice that sent shivers down Miroku's spine. "If you wish for an early death then by all means keep walking monk. It's just one more useless human gone from this earth…."

Oh…man! Why did he have to be here! If he knew his women right….a hot spring dip would be on Kagome's list too….

The things he did….If it had been any other day then Inuyasha would be a crater and there would be no one to stop him from peeping at the girls! 'Damn Sesshomaru and his honor-snoop-on-the-women-and-I'll-kill-you-or-worse-just-because-I-can-so-there….Damn IT!' Miroku thought.

'SCREW HIS HONOR!' Miroku thought and then stopped sitting against the tree dejectedly. He wanted to have a good time too. He had noticed something different in Sango's demeanor as of late and wondered what her problem was. She was hitting him harder, ignoring most of his wise words and she even threatened him with death once!

Was she playing hard to get? Because if that was the case then Miroku would be one dead man before he and Sango got married and had those 'wonderful children' that Sango, technically was supposed to bare him.

-With Sesshomaru-

He was leaning against a tree, arms crossed as he saw her flinch and give him a sideways glance….in fear that he had seen. It had been him, after all, to tell her to go home. But why should he care about her well being? He didn't care for anyone. But then again he had told, no, ordered Kagome to go back home.

'Baka forget that! She was hurt! Mate was hurt!' his beast said trying to scratch/rip Sesshomaru into ribbons. Hmm…maybe he should go and at least 'check out' Kagome's little boo-boo…What better luck than to catch her at the hot springs at least he didn't have to order her to take her shirt off….

-Intermission-

Kagome: (looks excited) "ooohh can I talk to Sesshomaru away from everyone in the dark?" (Wiggles eyes)

Lady Nefertiti: "I was getting to that…don't get your hopes up too soon."

Miroku: (looks sad) "Knowing you, Lady Nefertiti, you'd probably be putting something kinky right about now and you've reduced me to being baby-sitted and watched by Sesshomaru!"

Lady Nefertiti: "I'm just saving you from future death!" oh and guess what you betray Sango in this fic or maybe she'll betray you! I haven't decided yet."

Miroku: "Why would I do that?"

Lady Nefertiti: "I've never done that in any of my fics and besides Sango and you just need…well you'll see!"

Inuyasha: "Can we get on with the story please!"

Lady Nefertiti: (looks pissed) "I haven't forgotten about YOU Inuyasha… and the fact that you had the nerve to sue me because you were unhappy about the last damn chapter!"

Inuyasha: (looks nervous) "What are you going to do?"

Lady Nefertiti: (looks thoughtful) "I'm going to…..hmmm….We'll let the wonderful reviewers decide….and then I'll take the best way to humiliate you…."

Inuyasha: "You've got to be joking!"

Lady Nefertiti: "And now back to the story!"

-End Intermission-

Did that Slayer have to go with Kagome? Every time Kagome went to the springs that Sango went with her. Like Kagome would get or be in Danger. What danger? Sesshomaru thought walking towards the spring. Maybe he could divert Sango's attention so he could get Kagome alone. He just wanted to talk to her was all.

'Hn. Could the Danger perhaps be you?' his conscious asked him sarcastically.

Maybe. But Sesshomaru didn't think so. He was as innocent since the day he was born. He hn'ed and then walked towards the springs.

"Oi! Where do you think you're going? My job is to protect Kagome and protect her I will! That means you just sit your royal as…here and don't make a move." Inuyasha yelled at his brother's back.

Sesshomaru stopped and then turned saying (as a statement) "You're JOB…" he smirked as he said this as if meaning this as an insult.

"This Sesshomaru is just going for a walk baka for I am not a Hentai, remember that." Sesshomaru said whipping Inuyasha with the poison whip (which he blocked) and then disappeared into the darkness.

Shippo looked at Inuyasha innocently and asked "Does Sesshomaru-sama like my mother Inuyasha? Do you think they'll mate each other? That means I'll have a dad!" Inuyasha blanched for a second, eyes flashed red and then growled at the poor kit. Terrified Shippo jumped into Miroku's lap while Miroku looked at Inuyasha in a disapproving way.

"Keh! Sesshomaru hates Kagome's presence! What makes you think he wants to touch her?" and then Inuyasha sat by the fire in silence.

-With Sango and Kagome- (hot springs)

Sango and Kagome arrived at the spring and then Sango turned to look at Kagome, hoping she wasn't just playing tough, saying that she was okay. "Are you sure the bruise Inuyasha made on you doesn't hurt anymore Kagome?" Sango asked her worriedly. The scar was way too black to be just a scar….like it was something else that couldn't be healed.

"It's just fine Sango!" Kagome said trying to reassure her while trying to reassure herself that the bruise wasn't hurting her….well it wasn't but it hurt her heart to know that it had been Inuyasha, under a spell or not, that had hurt her….with his own hands.

"Are you going to tell me NOW what truly happened that day? You were so vague as to what Inuyasha did and whatever, all I know is that he slashed you with his claws." Sango said.

"Well…" Kagome began. She didn't want to tell her. This was like personal information that was supposed to be kept a secret unless you were Sesshomaru. Damn but that baka knew everything! She couldn't hide anything from him! Anyway… "Okay Sango here goes…" Kagome began.

"Hn." Sesshomaru said and stating that his presence was indeed here. Leaning against a tree, arms crossed, glowing like an angel in all his silver glory and smirking at the both of them made Kagome's cheeks go red. 'Ooohh…hotness…major….' Kagome thought giddily and Sango had to agree with her.

-Sango-

She might be a demon slayer but she knew her sexy demons……and this one was on the top of the list…but of course Kagome had first dibs. She knew he wouldn't be interested in her anyway. Maybe he had a Miko fetish…. And Sango grinned.

She'd bet Miroku would love to hear that she….loved the demon kind. Sango! Yes she'd shout it out to the world that she.loved.demons! Damn straight! But she didn't answer to Miroku so she wasn't worried. She knew Miroku liked her but (ahem) she'd never told anyone she always had a thing for demons…..hey it wasn't her idea to become a slayer! That was what her parents wanted. That was what she was brought up to be. A slayer…..She was in love with a demon way back when but her parents had found out and so had the demons parents and everyone knew it was a taboo, a forbidden relationship.

She sighed and then had a mischievous thought, 'TO HELL WITH THAT IDEA!' If Kagome could love a demon, half or not, evil or not, deadly or not, Sesshomaru or Inuyasha ( It will be Sesshomaru in the end she thought firmly)….then she damn well could too! But where to find one? Kouga nah….that guy just had the hots for Kagome…oh wait…He's going to be so pissed off when he knows that Sesshomaru has a 'thing' for Kagome….ha-ha….such was life. She knew that if any other male got in his way (Sesshomaru's) then they'd be torn to shreds. NO ONE keeps Sesshomaru away 'from what is his.' Sango said inwardly.

But speaking of which, Sesshomaru's presence here….hmmm…maybe she should (ahem) disappear. But before she could do that Sesshomaru said,

(A/N: and he's not lying about this)

"Taijiya your monk said something about going to go and have fun in a tea house with women because he was bored just sitting by a tree."

'LECHER!' Sango roared inwardly. Sango should've fumed and stalked over to the bloody tea house and bonked Miroku unconscious dragging him back by the neck to their camp but she just sighed and nodded her head at him. She left the both of them for a totally different reason, she thought that Sesshomaru and Kagome should have some alone time. Kagome squeaked a little glaring at Sango's back wondering why she left her at the mercy of a sexy, dangerous Sesshomaru who was looking at her like a fine piece of meat that he'd just love to devour.

-Rude Intermission-

Inuyasha: "Kagome is a fine piece of meat that Sesshomaru wants to EAT! Where in the seven….did that come from!"

Lady Nefertiti: "You can't put intermissions in this fic as you please! Only I can do that! Back to the story! Sorry about that readers!"

-End Rude Intermission-

"Hmm…" Sesshomaru said walking closer as Kagome walked backwards. If she came out of this alive then she was going to kill Sango. If she died then Sango was going down with her!

"Why do you flinch Kagome as if this Sesshomaru would cause you any unneeded harm?" No words came out from Kagome. He had said her name and boy did it sound nice the way it rolled off his tongue.

"This Sesshomaru has come to prove a theory and my beast will not rest until he knows the truth." He walked closer to her but Kagome didn't move back…no indeed. Her legs had long ago betrayed her and they were no longer of use to her.

"Will you let this Sesshomaru test out his theory little one?" he whispered in her ear. Kagome melted into a pile of mush when he said that. Damn him for being like that! His silky voice was driving her mad! Was he going to kill her? Surely not!

"I feel your tenseness and the hurt that has been inflicted on your body." He said lifting her chin up to stare into his molten gold eyes. What was he saying to her? Her brain was a little foggy and addled as he said things to her that she could not understand.

"Will you let this Sesshomaru touch you and see for himself?" he whispered in the wind, his hand running up and down her jaw line in pure affection.

"I….eeee…." Kagome said.

"Wonderful." He said taking it as a 'yes of course you big hunk a burnin' love! Mate me instead!'

(A/N: (giggle) I had to add the in: 'hunk of burnin' love!' )

"A shame that you're still dressed. The Taijiya did leave in quite a hurry, was she perhaps cross with you?" he said and started to play with the hem of her shirt. Kagome nodded dumbly wondering what she was agreeing to.

-Kagome's P.O.V-

'Sesshomaru's sure acting out of character….'

'Ya think? But like who cares! He's too yummy to pass up!' her conscious said.

'………..'

-End Kagome's P.O.V-

"What…What…is this thing you wish to prove?" Kagome said shakily. She wanted to know how? Just how did no one appear or jump out of the bushes yelling, 'I gotcha Kagome in action with Who TF? Sesshomaru! Kagome your taste certainly has changed much.' When she was alone with others someone always tended to pop in on them uninvited. Well then this was a good thing….right?

"So should you tell this Sesshomaru where you hurt or should he start here?" Sesshomaru said pointing to an area on Kagome.

"I don't… that is to say…" Kagome began.

"Such a shame that someone as wonderful as you should have been marred with a scar…" he said nuzzling her neck. Kagome gulped at nodded, heat pooling and stomach clenching into knots.

"I knew it! Ha! I proved my point! That male demons in fact, DO have a Hentai side to them!" Kagome said victoriously, punching a fist in the air. He blinked as he watched her glee in triumph. 'Okay…. Now that that's out of her system….where were we?' Sesshomaru thought.

"Kagome…you can take your shirt off now." Sesshomaru said regally as if he was saying it was okay to get down and dirty. He'd rather just rip her shirt off and turn it into shreds but that would be improper now wouldn't it?

"SAY WHAATTT?" Kagome yelled.

Define improper?

"Do not assume that this Sesshomaru is or will cause you harm little one." He said. "I only wish to heal you."

"How do you even know that I'm hurt?" Kagome asked him. But Sesshomaru wasn't a patient demon so he pulled Kagome's shirt above her shoulders and off it went.

'……….'

-An Inuyasha Intermission-

Inuyasha: "Hold it! I call another intermission!"

Sesshomaru: "We were just getting to the good part baka…"

Inuyasha: "Kagome! You wench! Why haven't you purified his butt by now?"

Kagome: "I was…distracted….?"

Inuyasha: "Distracted my foot! I'm supposed to protect you! Lady Nefertiti why haven't I arrived on the scene yet!"

Lady Nefertiti: "You're not doing a very good job of protecting her now are you? Look… Sesshomaru is all over her and you're sitting your butt on the ground doing nothing about it."

-Inuyasha's eyebrow twitches-

Inuyasha: "Well it's really not my fault is it? It's the way it's written in the script."

Kagome: (whispers) "I bet he just holds this intermission because he wants to be in the chapter." (Then loudly) "Which is Lady Nefertiti's job!"

Lady Nefertiti: "NO more Inuyasha intermissions! Or this fic is canceled!"

Cast: (dead silence)

(crickets chirping)

-End an Inuyasha Intermission-

"You! You!" Kagome said angrily. "Give that back!" She tried snatching her shirt back but Sesshomaru just tossed it aside. He didn't answer but circled her like a hungry dog eyeing his meal.

(A/N: giggle 'hungry dog!' )

He pointed at the scar/bruise at the side of her stomach by her breasts. "Now what did this Sesshomaru say?" he said walking closer to a very nervous, half-naked Kagome. She shut her eyes not wishing to see his face, he would think of her as….

"This Sesshomaru does not think of you as ugly Kagome." He said.

'Well I'll be…..He read my mind.' Kagome thought and then, " Eeppp!" as she felt a warm hand touching her stomach.

"Does it hurt here or here?" he asked softly.

"I forgot? Why don't you just check the entire area?" Kagome said innocently.

"My pleasure." He smirked and pulled her into his arms. He sat her in his lap and did something very interesting. He was sucking on her bruise…..

'Well I'll be damned….' Kagome thought. Hold it! She looked down and he was….he was….hmm….

"Sesshomaru! That tickles!" Kagome giggled. "What are you doing anyway?"

"Healing you." He said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Right…." Kagome said.

"My saliva will heal your wound in time and the scar will fade." He said.

"I…thank you." Kagome said softly. He looked up at her grateful eyes and just said, 'Hn.' In truth he had been furious that Inuyasha could cause/do something like this to a female. He had marked her! and with a wound no less!

'Not to mention that I'm thoroughly enjoying myself healing Kagome. She doesn't taste bad. Hmmm…..' Sesshomaru thought. How many other ways could he (ahem) heal her? He should test out those theories too. In time.

And this is how he came upon them…..

-With Inuyasha-

He was bored….

He wanted some fun…

Sango had just dragged Miroku back from a tea house (Of course we all know she wants a demon) and was bonking him on the head repeatedly. So she was enjoying herself.

Was Kagome done with her bath? Hmm…..Then he heard her giggle from afar and he smiled wickedly…his eyes flashing pink with lust. Kikyo wasn't a virgin but Kagome was. Kagome would, of course, take him wholeheartedly because she still loved him. So looked like he'd have his fun after all.

He dashed into the woods and what he saw was not what he wanted to see nor least expect. Kagome was half-naked, sitting on his hated half-brother's lap, legs all spread out and he was sucking on some part of her skin! They were acting like….like….

'Mates?' his angry beast supplied.

Sesshomaru looked up at him and smirked. "Is something amiss little brother?"

Inuyasha was pointing and he looked like a fish out of water with his mouth open and no words came out.

"What are you doing to my Kagome!" Inuyasha said angrily.

"Reducing her pain. Of course." Sesshomaru said covering Kagome's bare back from Inuyasha's view with his long haori sleeve. He sighed as he looked at her. He should've taken the skirt off too… 'not much to hide anyway'….he thought looking down.

"Redu….WTF? WTF? What in the seven hells…. Holy mother of F! WTF? KAGOME?" Inuyasha yelled. Kagome looked up annoyed that she had been interrupted from her 'healing session' with Sesshomaru and sighed.

"SIT BOY!"

(BOOM!)

"We shall continue your sessions later my dear." Sesshomaru whispered. That said, he pulled her skirt down and put her in the hot spring. "This Sesshomaru believes that this is what you originally came here for?" With that he dragged an unconscious Inuyasha back to camp, Kagome staring at his back, wondering what happened.


Lady Nefertiti: Whoo! (Fans herself) That's why it took a little time to write that. I added like four more pages (on Microsoft word) to this chapter because I was unsatisfied with the chapter.

Well anyway, I'll try and update the next chapter soon because when there's a lime….there's always a (ahem) fill in the blank right after it sometime or another. (Wink)

Don't forget to read and review for me!
