Dark taresses splayed across the young mikos face as she gazed down upon the young child before her, who had just finished writing her first ever sentance all on her own. It read:
Sesshomaru is my father; Kagome is my mother.
Kagome had to supress the grin on her face at even the thought of being the mate of the wonderous demonlord. And Rin was such a beautiful young child, the miko loved the idea. She ruffled the childs hair with pride and praised her, telling her that she had done enough this day and that she could now go out and play.
"I'm going to show my sentance to Sesshomaru-sama!" Cried the child as she rushed off, paper in hand. Kagome grinned at the childs livlihood, and set to work cleaning the study that lord Sesshomaru had allowed them to use as a classroom this day. Thinking to herself how beautiful rin was going to be once she was grown, and feeling an ache in her heart where her family used to be.
"Mother must be worried sick about me..."
"Sesshomaru-sama!" Exclaimed Rin as she scampered toward the almighty figure of the man she had named her father. "Sesshomaru-sama come look what I did all by myself!" The child held the paper with her untidy scrawl out to the demon lord, who took it gently in his hand. His face was impassive as he read it over and returned it to the child. He nodded once to her before continuing to stalk the halls of his fortress. All at once Rin's excitement exploded, and she leapt with joy in all her excitement. "Sesshomaru-sama likes it!" She squealed as she scurried away, reciting those three words. She rushed past Kagome, who was dressed in miko garb similar to kikyo's only kagome's were entirly white, her raven hair contrasting beautifly with her outfit and pale skin. The miko grinned at the love in Rins voice as she cried her three words of hapiness.
The young woman continued down the hall, toward the place she knew the demon lord to be, steeling herself to again attempt to express her love for the demonlord. As last time she came up and took her place slightly behind the taiyuki (sp?) so that if there were any guest's in the palace, they would know that she was not the same status. As it was, the inu-yuki was in the middle of a negotiation with the lord of the east, disscussing an alliance. Kagome knew that she would have to wait here until he was finished with the other lord.
For hours she waited, trying to organize how she was going to explain herself to Sesshomaru, and at last his new ally left and he turned his sights to the young miko.
"You may speak."
"Sesshomaru-
"Sesshomaru, won't you abandon that stinking, worthless, ugly human and accompany your mistress back to your room?" The seductive voice of a cat demon purred. Again Kagome forgot all about confessing her love, as rightous rage englufed her mind.
"Stinking!" She shouted, making sure to subdue the miko power within herself as not to obliderate her loved one. Despite her efforts, however, electric-like tendrils of her pinkish energy purified the air, and burned the skin of the demoness, comming close to even Sesshomaru in her outrage. "Ugly?" Her anger took another step up and her energetic tendrils were fed even further. The cat demoness was directly hit, and she shreiked in agony, Kagome regained control of her energy just enough to direct the stray bolts to the demoness, lifting her from the ground. "I am NOT worthless!" She hissed draining the power from the demon cats body perminently and storing it within herself.
When the last of the cats energy was drained kagome dropped her to the ground and choked back a sob as tears streamed down the sides of her face. Kagome had known that Sesshomaru had most likley bedded other women before, but it didn't lesson the hurt she felt thinking or hearing about it. The young woman was slightly surprised when a strong arm caught her around the back and held her into a muscular chest. She buried her head in the white fabric of his haori (is that what that thing he wears is?) and sobbed. And at last, she found the words she was looking for.
"Sesshomaru...I love you..." She uttered before twisting from his grasp and rushing out of the room.
