"what is it lady kagome?"he questioned pulling her in front of him sliding his arm around her waist the other pulling some wet hair from her face. ((yes he has both)) she jumped at the intimate contact and blushed deep red.

"oh...nothing i was just wondering. where is Rin?" she asked looking up into soft amber eyes. wow....they were beautiful. a voice in the back of her head screamed betrayal. and she frowned her aura becoming depressed. Tsume looked saddend for a moment before he spoke.

"Rin Decided she wanted to live with a family that she had met durring our travels. She said that they needed her. Sesshoumaru still checks up on her and the family every moon is very happy their" tsume stated smiling softly. Kagome had a sympathetic look and rubbed his shoulder. She then stood and gathered wood. He understood that they were setting up camp and quickly went to hunt. When he returned with the skinned and cleaned rabbits she had already fallen fast asleep against a tree. Her face relaxed and her slighty wet hair tussled around her. He quickly placed the rabbits over the fire. He sat next to her and gently moved her onto his lap to make her more comfortable. Yes he would have and to make sesshoumaru want her as well. He connected with him and felt anger pulsating from his mind. He quickly sent every emotion and image he had torwards the girl straight torwards him. He could feel him struggle for control. He let the girls calming scent implant in his brain. When he felt him relax and sease struggiling he planted the image of the girl resting softly in his lap. Then cut out knowing not to push him. Meanwhile his claws had been combing through her silky raven creamy skin seemed to glow in the fire light he leaned in to brush his lips across her forehead. Her eyes slowly fluttered open and she blushed lightly getting up. "uh sorry I kinda…passed out…."she sat up and sniffed something smelt awfully good….

"you are hungry. Good they are almost finished in about 5 minutes " he smirked as her stomach growled in protest. She blushed deeply. They stood in silence. Kagome gently wen to wash her hands before the meal. after all they would be eating with sticks….wich was awfully she returned to camp she saw the rabbit sliced clean and neatly and seperated onto two flat slabs of rock. She smiled softly as he motioned for her to eat. She sat back against the tree and he handed her the slab. They ate in a content silence then she got up to head back to the river for a bath. She made a torch and went torwards the sound of water. She found a nice semi secluded spot and stripped quietly wishing sango was with her or shippo. She missed them so much. And inuyasha….. She had always loved him. He was her protector and her best friend. They had shared so much in three years. It killed her that he died trying to save her. She silently let the tears flows. Kagome wondered what would happen now that inuyasha was gone. Would they continue in the search for the jewel shards. Would they continue to hunt down the vial naraku? She already knew the answer. Yes they would continue their journey for sango….miroku…and inuyasha…..she dried with the sleeves she ripped off the kimono and dressed ringing out her hair. She wiped the excess tears and headed swiftly back to camp. He sat silently on a stump she hadnt noticed before. He looked lost in contemplation over something so she left him and went to her spot to drift to sleep. When she awoke it was almost noon she guessed since she didn't have her watch. She left it in her pack wich was at kaedes it was warm today. She sighed as they continued walking. They talked very little but he watched her intently. She blushed when she caught him staring at her but. He only smirked at her wich made her blush harder. She stopped after an hour or so from walking. "how much further till we reach kaedes village?" she asked him hoping he'd no since it was on the border of his lands.

"it will only take us an hour if we fly and 5 if we continue to walk."he said like she should know that. She glared at him. And he looked confused. "what?" he asked her.

"and you couldn't have mentioned flying earlier? MY FEET ARE KILLING ME!" she growled he chuckled. He went to stand beside her and pulled her against him. She didn't notice that while she was struggling they were 60 ft in the air.

"I suggest you stop unless you want to fall." she eeped when she looked down and he laughed when she clung to him for dear life. When they reached the village she burst into tears seeing miroku,sango,shippo,and kaede. They ran to her seeing her distress and turned on Sesshoumaru seeing as he was the one who was with her. They quickly rushed to her weapons ready to protect. Seeing this she quickly stopped them. She quickly explained the situation and sango cryed silently for their lost comrade. Miroku said a light prayer for him and shippo cryed loudly running into her arms quickly. Even this Sesshoumaru had a hardcore I don't give a shit for anything look on his face when others were around. She circled him showing the others he was harmless. They looked at her grimly but nodded. Kaede looked him over and stated that kagome was correct. Tsume just held his impassive face while in his head he was taunting and teasing Sesshoumaru who was trying to gain controll again. 'Tsume this human is pathetic and ignorant as well as annoying, she would not be a suitable mate for us I refuse to accept this wench' Sesshoumaru looked his other self over and glared. 'sesshoumaru you lost that right to decide when you ignored our need for well over 500 years, I will chose the mate I see fit for us besides you are very wrong about this girl. She is strong, smart, different, and might I add beautiful, and bright. So this girl will do nicely pluss im getting attached already….' tsume sighed sending a few images of her sleeping peacefully. 'Tsume she is human, and you are forgetting she is in love with our dearest late half brother' Sesshoumaru smirked as he watched himself cringe at that thought. 'Inuyasha is dead, and im sure she will come to love us, she is very kind and loving, and you already know that when a demon mates it gives its mate its life expanse.' tsume said still a bit hesitant about the love part. 'this is no longer up for debate release me this instant so I can get back to my lands and killing Naraku' Sesshoumaru glared and stood in his mind. Tsume merely shook his head. 'no I need her.' and then he vanished and the shackles were replaced.

"my lord if this is naraku doing can you or can you not go back to normal?" kaede asked stirring the broth she made for supper.

"I do not need help I will give my other half control after I feel he deserves it" he told the old priestess finaly. Kagome sighed and left the little over crowded hut. He stood quickly to follow her. But decided to spy on followed her scent losely to find her at the sacred tree his brother was pinned to. On hand placed softly against the trunk. Her head gently bowed. He could sense her sorrow just as well he could smell her tears. She fell to her knees and cryed his name softly before repeating stupid and why. He turned and tried to leave her alone to grieve but he couldn't help but feel sympathy for this small girl at the moment. Her sorrow was thick and rolled off of her in thick waves. She cryed for hours just sobbing into her hands and crying silently. She curled into herself against the tree and fell into a nightmare filled sleep. He watched her sleep protectively before gathering her shaking form from the forest floor and taking her to the small hut to sleep. He only rested for a few hours before waking up to birds tweeting. He looked back to her. She didn't look healthy her eyes were puffy and red and her face was paler then normal. He frowned and growled finding even more reason to hate his brother. He felt her presence stir signaling his little human was now awake. She yawned tiredly and stretched getting up and grabbing her yerllow sack looking thing she always had on her back.

She went into the next room and 15 minutes later came out rubbing her eyes. A tight garment that fit to her torso exposing a tiny bit of her hips. And hakamas that were way to tight and faded black grey. He had to admit she was definitely differT.
