She smelled the blood from far away. It stunk up the air like Naraku's miasma. The blood clearly belonged to a human and by how much she smelled, a couple of humans had died.

Her and Rin finally made it back to where Sesshomaru rudely told them to go to the village. He didn't say it like that, but Kagura understood very clearly. Sesshomaru wanted to be left alone and that was the only way. She didn't have a problem with it, she also wanted to be far from him, especially because of his behavior towards her.

She didn't talk and when she did, she said as few words as she could. As of late, Sesshomaru had been acting strangely. He would constantly sniff the air but then, he grabbed her and smelled her neck. Kagura had thought the end was near in that moment, and he would kill her, but he simply let her go and turned around as if nothing had happened.

They finally arrived at the camp site and saw him leaning back onto a tree. The demon looked clam and relaxed, his long silver hair blowing in the wind, but Kagura knew better.

He smelt the blood, just like she, and the fact that he wasn't worried about humans dying so close to him, let her know he was responsible for it. Sesshomaru may not care about her, or the child, but he did care about Rin, and he wouldn't let nothing that could harm the little girl, even close to her.

"We will make camp here for the night." He said, breaking the silence. Kagura nodded while Rin laid down the blanket they had just bought. The humans in the village wasn't too happy to see a demon but they didn't say a word. Kagura had looked around, ignoring the frightened faces, and bought everything they needed.

As Rin laid down to sleep, Kagura stood up.

"Where are you going?" Sesshomaru asked, as if it was his business. Kagura knew if she didn't answer him, the next time he asked her that question, he would have his hand around her throat. Whenever Kagura didn't answer his questions or whenever she did answer them but not to his liking, a deadly slender hand would be around her throat, blocking her airways.

"Just to get something to eat." She lied, she wanted to see why Sesshomaru killed those people.

"You shouldn't worry about things that don't concern you, or you may get hurt." He smiled at her. His golden gaze following her every move. Kagura understood the threat loud and clear. He didn't want her to see what became of those humans. She walked forward anyway, ignoring his gaze following her.

From the smell of the blood, the humans hadn't been dead for long. She walked along a crooked path, her fear building, wondering what she was going to see. She finally pushed past some trees and came along three corpses.

Two of the corpses were men and she could tell that the men had died quickly. The last corpse had to be a woman. She could tell by the head that was laying a feet feet away from her. The head was all she had to go by, considering the fact that Sesshomaru's poison had melted the woman's body into a mass of bone and flesh.

She turned to look away but was struck hard in the head, causing her to land face first into the woman's guts. She lifted her head up and wiped the slimy flesh and blood off the side of her face. She felt her hair being pulled and she was thrown against a tree. As soon as she came into contact with the tree, the breath was forced from her lungs.

She didn't have time to react, for she was grabbed by her hair again and Sesshomaru's large fist came crashing down into her face, causing her to bite her tongue and her nose to bleed.

He licked the blood with his long rough tongue before whispering into her ear. "Didn't I tell you not to concern yourselves with things that don't involve you?" He was smiling as he said this.

The tears streamed down her face, mixing with the blood. She looked at him, truly looked at him for the first time in her life. Sesshomaru was cruel and cold, but so beautiful that you wouldn't believe half of the things that were said about him.

Kagura was one of those foolish people. All she saw was his strength and handsome face, and went after him thinking he would be her hero. She didn't say anything as he gripped her upper arm roughly and hauled her into the air.

They walked back to their camp site and was bamboozled by a frightened Rin who thought they had abandoned her. Sesshomaru calmly leaned down, and with the arm he used to kill a woman not to long ago, and with the hand he struck Kagura with, minutes before, gently rubbed Rin.

Rin looked at Kagura and noticed her bleeding nose, worry soon found it's way back onto Rin's face. "What happened Lady Kagura.?"

Sesshomaru answered for her. "She fell down, Rin. She went were she shouldn't have and ended up getting injured." He turned and looked at her. "Next time, she won't go to places she shouldn't go to, or else she may get hurt even worse." He said, still smiling.

Kagura understood that threat as well, and went to get ready for bed. She prepared her bed roll far away from Sesshomaru and preceded to sleep. She felt that he was watching her and when she looked up, she saw his face.

He was looking at her, mockingly, still smiling and she rolled on her side.

So I will be finishing the story soon, only maybe 3 or 4 more chapters left to the end. I will try to finish this before July, 20, but can't make promises. Thank you for reading this far.
