Chapter 4
I follow Sesshoumaru's path and go down the hall past his study and stop at a open door leading down into the blackness of the dungeons where Aro's scent is strongest.
I use my demonic speed to make it across the dungeons in two seconds to stand beside Sesshoumaru and his guards. I look at the damage done to the cells that Kagura, Hakudoshi and Jaken were kept in and how they will need a lot of work done to them.
I look up at Sesshoumaru and see the anger in his eyes. "Sesshoumaru how could Aro have gotten past all the guards and into the dungeon?" I ask him.
He looks down at me and the anger in his eyes dissipates for a second as he speaks." There is a door behind the Dojo that leads down into here, there are no guards patrolling that side of the wall so he could of jumped over and went through that door down into here and his scent leads that way."
"Where could he have gone?"
"Any where but in the Western lands. Aro may not think on some things but he knows he would be looked for within the Western Lands so he will go just outside of them."
"So where do we start?"
"I will send search party's into each of the lands, Aro will have covered his aura and scent so that we can not trace him but we will remain here."
I look up at him and place my hands on my hips as to show him I am not happy about the idea of having to sit still for this.
"Why do we have to stay here?"
He turns his head away, clearly not going to answer me making me agitated at him. I roll my eyes and turn and walk into the unlit part of the dungeons following it to the stairs and up them and through the door.
Instead of going to Breakfast like I should I head right to my office to work on some paperwork that needs to get done. I will not look at him if he wants to be that way.
I walk to the door across from his office, slide it open and walk in and shut it. I lock the door and walk over to my desk in the corner and set down. I look at the two separate piles of paperwork that are waiting on my to finish them.
Since becoming the Lady of the West I have since taking over half of Sesshoumaru's paperwork leaving him with mot much paperwork. I don't mind doing the paperwork most of the time when its good.
I pick up a scroll and unroll it in front of me, finding a note from the Southern Lady.
Hello Lady Kagome,
I have heard of your pregnancy from your mother. Congratulations to yourself and Lord Sesshoumaru, with you two as its parents it will be a strong pup. I am also writing to ask you permission for my youngest son Akoro to come to visit your daughter Rin, they likes playing together at your parents ball and I thought it would be nice if they could do it more often. Thank you.
Yours Truly
Lady Serena
I smile, I do remember how Akoro and Rin loved playing together and to thought it would be good for her to have someone to play with around her own age other than Shippo all the time.
I roll the scroll up and set it aside while grabbing a clean one. I pick my quill up, dip it in ink and start to write.
Dear Lady Serena
Thank you very much, Sesshoumaru and I are excited. I to think it would be nice so when ever you want to bring him he may come for a visit and maybe you can stay and we may talk. I would like another woman's opinion on birthing a demon baby. My Mother can only tell me so much since I was not born a demon and you have had many. Thank you again!
Lady Kagome
I set my quill down and roll the scroll up and set it on the pile of things for my messenger to take and send out. I start working on the rest of my things trying to get my mind off of things.
Sesshoumaru's POV
I walk towards Kagome's study, I know she is mad that we are not going out to look for Aro but I do not want to risk anything with her being with child, I could not live with myself if something happened to her and our pup.
I make it to her door and turn the lock, finding it locked. I knock at the door and wait and get no response. I sigh and rub my temple where and headach is starting to form.
"Kagome please open your door, we need to talk about this." I say in a even voice.
"I don't want to see you Sesshoumaru so go away." She replies in a angry voice.
"I will not leave Kagome, you do not understand the reason I don't want to go after Aro."
I listen as tiny footsteps near the door, I hear her unlock the door and slide it open. She looks up at me with anger in her eyes.
"Fine spill it." She says as she places her hands on her hips.
I step forward and place my hands on her tummy where our pup is growing. " I don't want to risk you or our pup in a battle with Aro. I could not live with myself if something happened to either one of you." I say in a soft voice.
She looks at me as the anger floods out of her eyes and they return to their soft looks. "Sesshoumaru you know I can take care of myself." She says.
"I know all to well that you can do this but you have never fought against Aro before and he usually will take that to his advantage in a battle."
"But you would not let anyting happen."
"I would try but hard to know what else he has up his sleeves for us and his reasons for taking Kagura, Hakudoshi and Jaken."
"I guess your right but Sesshoumaru it makes us look like cowards."
"No it does not, trust me Kagome, I know what I am doing."
"Okay."
She steps forward and wraps her arms around my waist and I wrap my arms around her waist and hold her to me. I lean down and kiss her head as if to assure myself nothing will happen to her and our pup.
Hello everyone, finally a new chapter. Okay I know I shouldn't expect but I do, this is the sequel to Unexpected Transformations and basically no one is checking it out, PLEASE REVIEW AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!
