I do not own Inuyasha or any of the characters. Except the ones I make up, but that will be a couple of chapters down the road.

The plot of this story does notfollow the plot of Inuyasha at all. So don't get all bent out of shape when you see what happens.

Chapter 10

Lust-To have a strong sexual desire for someone

Sesshomaru was still staring when Kagome turned and looked at him. She slowly walked toward where he was still sprawled out on the ground and knelt down to look at him with a raised eyebrow.

She stood up and slowly held out her hand to him, waiting for him to take it. He hesitated for a moment before taking her outstretched hand, allowing her to help him to his feet. Her hand was warm and soft, his completely engulfed hers.

"How… This Sesshomaru though you were human. No. You were human."

"I am a half-breed."

"You do not smell of one. You're aura isn't that of tainted blood. That also does not explain why you were human for as long as you were."

"You ask a lot of questions."

"This Sesshomaru would appreciate you answering a few of them."

"This Kagome does not have to answer to you."

They stood glaring icily into each others eyes. The fire he saw in her excited him beyond reason.

The tip of her tail flicked angrily, the only sign that he had riled her at all. He suddenly had the urge to lean in and claim those pink lips.

She must have sensed it because suddenly she turned sharply on her heel and stocked toward his brother's direction. He was quick to follow her, mentally shaking himself for not having more control over his body.

S/K

They had been walking for several hours when they finally stopped to take a break. Or so Sesshomaru thought.

He sat with his back leaning against an old oak tree when he suddenly felt several demonic auras coming swiftly toward them. Most of them were lower class youkai, but a few could rival Inuyasha.

Sesshomaru and Kagome were in a vast clearing. She was standing several yards away from him and looking toward the direction the approaching demons were coming from, and had been for more than a couple minutes.

As the demons drew closer, he could feel the air around him charge with something he couldn't quite place. It seemed familiar, but he could not place where he had felt it before.

The youkai finally appeared through the thick trees, a variety of boar, bear, lizard, snake, coyote, and weasel youkai. The higher level demons in the group consisted of dragon, lion, and lynx youkai.**

They stopped at the line of the trees, their eyes filled with lust and promise of slow death. Sesshomaru was disgusted by the small of all their arousal which was thick in the air. He distinctly noticed that there were only males in the group.

"Lady Kagome. It is a pleasure to see you again." Purred one of the coyote youkai.

She stood motionless, looking at them deadpan.

One of the boar demons sneered, running his eyes up and down her Kimono clad form with hungry eyes. "Forget the introductions; let's get to the fun part."

Suddenly every one of the 14 youkai in the clearing launched themselves at the only female.

Each attacked from a different angle with different antics, some attempting to know her out and others trying to rip her clothes. Every strike was met with air. Kagome dodged and moved about, dancing away from flying claws and gnashing teeth. One by one they dropped to the ground, being eaten by an unknown substance that looked suspiciously like Sesshomaru's poison. Net until the strongest three demons were left did the demon Lord see how the others met their downfall. As the lion youkai charged, Kagome moved behind him and striked him with a red glowing whip-much like Sesshomaru's- down the middle of his back. The lion cried out in pain as he hit the ground, writhing in agony.

Sesshomaru watched in morbid fascination as the skin in his back was ate away to expose bone, before that, too, was eaten. Before long, absolutely nothing was left of the demon, not even a scent. This also happened to the dragon youkai.

As she striked the dragon, the lynx took the opportunity to slip behind her to pin her to a nearby tree by her throat, pressing his body against hers to ensure that she couldn't move.

Sesshomaru's muscles tensed, readying to pounce on the offender at any time.

As he watched, he seen Kagome looked deeply into the enemy's eyes before reaching up slowly and brushing her fingertips against his skin, causing him to shiver slightly. She gently grabbed it and brought his mouth down to hers before kissing the side of his mouth and under his chin on the tender spot there.

The youkai purred in delight, allowing her ministrations to continue, ending at the pulse point in his throat where she gently nipped him. His grip on her throat slackened enough for her to slip from his hold. She quickly had him on his back on the ground with his hands inaccessible underneath him, her left hand on his throat, and the other point with her claws at his heart. She left the smallest of all smirks appear on her face at his shocked expression. She leaned down to his pointed ear and promptly whispered:

"Never trust a homicidal female."

He only had enough time to cough in shock before acid was seeping out of her claws and into his chest and throat.

In seconds she was off him and watching him being eaten away.

To say that Sesshomaru was shocked would be an understatement.

So the little woman is a temptress, is she?

"I suppose this is why you had this Sesshomaru send the others away."

"Hn." She turned and continued walking, as if she hadn't just killed 14 youkai in the span of five minutes.

And Sesshomaru followed wordlessly.

** To clarify things, this is how many youkai there were; Lion-1 Boar-2 Weasel-1 Lynx-1 Lizard-1 Snake-4 Dragon-1 Bear-1 Coyote-2

Ta-Da! Well? Whatd'ya think? I now have 13 Chapters written and finished, and just need to type them.
