Kagome (time skip)
We had been walking for some time, earlier having turned south, currently walking through a forest. The night before, I had sensed a lake ahead of us, so I purposely put on my blue and white horizontally striped bikini under my cloths. It was absolutely cute, the inch width waist band, on the bottoms, was white with yellow strips on top and bottom, with strings that tie on the sides, and a cute medium sized tropical looking flower just below the waist band in the center, the inside lime-ish green. The top was like it, the same thing that was on the waist band on the bottoms, went up the side, near the cleavage, the same flower print going up the side next to the white/yellow band, strings tying behind my back and neck, the inside the same lime-ish green.
We have been walking for a while now, the woods now a forest. I could sense we were getting close, and I was literally hopping with excitement, with Sesshoumaru giving me a weird look from where he was walking behind me, but I didn't care, I get to go swimming!
The woods/forest soon came to an end. About twenty-five feet from the tree line was the edge of a cliff, and about fifteen feet to my right was a ragged but smooth rock/boulder jutting out from the cliff edge, about ten feet long. About nine hundred feet forward and fifty feet up, was another cliff but this one had a waterfall twenty-five feet to the right of the rock/boulder (still across the gap). I walked to the end of the rock/boulder; it kinda looked like a diving board, but four feet wide; and looked down into the gap to see a beautiful crystal clear lake, I could tell it was deep, I cold now see the bottom of the waterfall as it cascaded down water smoothed boulders. It was breath taking beautiful.
I stepped back about five feet, took my bag off my shoulder and put it on the ground, and started taking off my outer cloths.
"Miko, what is it that you are doing?" Sesshoumaru asked. I was a little started at first because he has been quiet for a long time.
"Swimming," I simply stated. "Would you like to come?"
"And what is this 'Swimming' you speak of?" he asked in his monotone voice.
"It would be better if you watched rather than have me explain." And with that I ran towards the end of the rock/boulder, now in my swim suit, and dived down towards the crystal clear lake at the bottom of the gap.
I went head first into the water, bubbles forming around me from where I had disturbed its peace. I could hold my breath for at least three minutes, and I plan to stay down here as long as possible. It was just beautiful, no chlorine burning my eyes. I swam over to the boulders at the bottom of the waterfall. That was when I noticed that there was a small hole in the boulders. I swam towards it. I moved some of the boulders out of the way, but I was in need of oxygen, so I swam to the surface, where I saw Sesshoumaru crouching down at the end of the boulder that was jutting out.
"What were you doing, Miko?" Sesshoumaru asked with a slightly quirked eyebrow.
"I think I found a cave opening," I said swimming to shore. I scanned the cliff edge looking for a way back up to the boulder; I then found a sloped trail heading towards the boulder. I ran up the slop wary of sharp rocks. When I made it to the top I went to my weapons.
'NO! Take me with you. I wanna come.' Tenseiga's voice echoed through my head when I was about to pick up a sword.
'Okay, no offense, but what good could you do? You can't exactly cut anything.' I said already reaching towards Tenseiga. I put Tenseiga on my hip, through the strings that tie my bottoms together.
'I could protect you and see stuff that you can't.'
'You can see?'
'Yes, I can see.'
'Cool!'
"Miko, where are you taking my sword?" Sesshoumaru asked suddenly behind me. I didn't answer him; I started to run towards the end of the boulder.
"Miko!"
"…"
"Kagome!" by the time he said my name I was at the edge, diving off. I looked behind me to see Sesshoumaru reaching for my ankle. It was like slow motion.
"Tenseiga wants to come with me!" Hearing that, he froze. I was now heading head first into the water. When I broke the surface, I swam towards the cave entrance. Moving more boulders out of the way I swam through, and kept swimming when Tenseiga broke the silence in my head.
'Why did you tell him?'
'Because, if he grabbed my ankle it would have been broken and you wouldn't have been able to come.'
'Good point. Oh well, I was about to slip anyway.'
'Wait, you can talk to him from a distance?'
'Yeah, why?'
'This is good.'
'And how is that a good thing?'
'It's good because I might need you to tell him a few things. Oh, and can you tell him not to follow because he wouldn't be able to fit into the cave.'
'Sure thing.'
When Tenseiga was quiet I finally found air, after swimming up for awhile, and took a huge breath. I was about to run out of breath. A few feet in front of me was a ledge. I swam over to the ledge and hoisted myself up onto the ledge and swung my legs over so I could stand up. Before walking forward, I checked the ground, the walls, and the ceiling, for anything out of place. Finding nothing, I walked forward.
'I told him, but he's wondering where we are.' Tenseiga said, again breaking the 'silence'.
Would you be as kind as to tell him that I don't know exactly? Please and thank-you!'
'Sure thing.'
I looked ahead to what looked like a dead end. I kept walking, finding it a wall; nothing more. I looked to my left; nothing. I looked up; nothing. I looked to my right expecting nothing, but found a small crack in the wall, just big enough for me to walk in side ways. I took Tenseiga off my hip and held it so it was parallel with my body. I then slipped through the crack in the wall. It was quite long, if I must say. When I finally made it to the other side, what I say surprised me.
"I Did NOT See This Coming!" I said. "Shit!"
'What, what's wrong?'
'That!' I thought, pointing in front of me.
'Oh, yeah, that IS bad.'
Conswayla: Yeah! 1,324 words!
Kagome: Umm… what did you do with Sesshoumaru?
Conswayla: Oh, don't worry; he's not dead, yet.
Sango: Hey, Princess Conswayla!
Conswayla: Hey, Sango! But, please, call me Conswayla.
Sango: Okay. So how's the story going? Any secrets?
Conswayla: *leans towards ear**whispers* Don't tell Kagome or Sesshoumaru, but they're gonna be a couple in this fic.
Sango: *whispers back * Oh, okay. I won't tell them.
Conswayla: Good. Now, bye-bye! Don't forget to R&R!
Cast: BYE-BYE!
