Sesshomaru tried to keep up with time, but he failed, not that he would admit it. He was pretty sure that when Kagura came, it was night time. Kagome slept through the 'night' and awoke with fear when she heard the door crank open again.

He knew the wind witch had return.

"Still playing nice?" She carried another bucket this time.

"Kaugra, please, let us go!" Kagome cried out,

"Oh, asking now, are we?"

"Please" Kagome said again.

"Naraku has a plan for you, be grateful your alive" She snapped.

Sesshomaru watched the woman's every move and she was aware of it to.

"I will be separating you two for a moment, your better behave" She told them and she headed over.

Sesshomaru picked up on Kagomes heart rate, she was afraid.

"What does Naraku having you doing this time, wind witch"

She glared at him "He is allowing you a few minutes apart, do what you will, I will be helping the miko"

"Helping me?"

Kaugra began unlocking what looked like to be a lever. Once unlocked she was able to move Kagome without unlocking either of their chains. Sesshomaru watched as Kagura moved Kagome over to the other half of the room, which was separated by a half wall.

He listened for a moment and only heard Kaugra tell the girl to relieve herself, which was a good idea. Sesshomaru took the time to do the same, thank god neither of them had to go before then.

He was done by time Kaura started moving Kagome again. Kagome kept her eyes down as she they came back, she didn't want to look at him, she could not, this was low.

"Don't be shy girl, you have only been naked against him for days now" Kagura began to lock the girl back against him. Kagomes cold nipples pressed up against his chest and he closed his eyes, he could feel them very well.

His body was so warm, dare she say she almost missed it?

"Now don't scream"

"What?" Kagome gasp,

Kagura picked up the bucket she carried in.

"It's just water" Sesshomaru assured her.

But Kagome closed her eyes and braced herself.

Kaugra threw the water on them , soaking the both and Kagomes body went tight against his.

"Now your clean, you will be plenty dirty later" She said with a wicked smile as she left them again.

The water had been warm, but as it dripped from their bodies, it became cold and Kagome shivered. Once again her nipples got cold and he could feel them against his chest.

"Sorry" She whispered, her head down, her body shaking.

"It is beyond your control"

She nodded "I am so cold"

There was nothing he could do for her, nothing he could offer her.

"I wanna go home" She said again,

"I am aware" He responded,

"I can only sleep so much" She sniffed,

He knew she would cry soon,

"I can't believe this" Tears started to fall,

"What does he want with us"

Sesshomaru didn't understand what Naraku was thinking, why them?

"'Miko, if you can, try not to swallow the water"

"I could try, but didn't she say she would just force it?"

"I am unsure of what is in it"

"Do you feel different?" Kagome asked,

Sesshomaru though for a moment, and opened his demon ability, but nothing really seemed off, other than a naked girl pressed up against him.

"Not as of yet"

She nodded "Me either"

"Why do we have to be naked" Kagome tried to move a little,

It really didn't make sense. Why them, why naked, and what was in the water.

"I knew Naraku was sick, but I am afraid to ask how sick" Kagome looked up,

Sesshomaru looked down at her, she looked wildly pretty, even at a time like this. She was not a bird to be caged, that was for sure, but then again, neither was he.

"Naraku will show soon"

"What if he touches me, I , I can't, I can't deal with that!" Her mind was running with bad thoughts.

"Calm down Miko"

"I can't!" she yelled "I'm sorry for being weak, for being human, but I'm scared of him!"

"Are you not scared of me"

"Yes and no" She looked down,

"He will not touch you, not like that, you are not who he wants, if he wanted to touch you he would have done it by now" Sesshomaru looked at the closed-door.

"What is he waiting for" Kagome wondered,

"For something Miko, stay alert and if you feel any different, tell me at once"

"The only thing I feel, is you"

Sesshomaru took in a breath, his chest pushed against her own. There was only one thing he felt as well, and it was her, way to much of her.
