I do not own Inuyasha.
Surprisingly the miko held her ground.
Even if he wasn't even using a fraction of his real power, it was still pleasing to know that she wasn't incompetent. He supposed years of traveling the world and fighting helped the girl. Sesshomaru focused back towards the sword in his hands, tightening his fingers around Bakusaiga even if he would never use it against the miko.
A drop of sweat trickled down her ivory skin and across her neck, his eyes following its path.
The priestess grunted and thrusted forward with all the strength she could muster, finally rolling out beneath the force of his weapon.
Kagome landed only a few feet away grinning, her chest heaving from her accelerated heart rate in which the sparring with the handsome demon sent it in. Sesshomaru frowned, she was vulnerable.
She flew to the ground and was pinned to the grass with a pale, clawed hand. "If that had been real battle miko, I would not have hesitated to kill you." He growled. "Get up."
He released her and appeared at her shoulder, breathing on her slender neck.
"I could kill you."
"Yes." She replied matter-of-factly.
"You are not frightened?" he questioned, curiosity lacing his voice.
"To say I am frightened would be a lie, so yes you are intimidating." She quipped.
"Even demons would be cowering at my feet. You have no sense of place."
"And where is my place, Sesshoamru-sama."
"Beneath me."
She caught her tongue and forced herself to continue, there seemed to be a question he was getting to." You instruct me, you influence me in sword fighting but I am a miko. Should you not be intimidated by me?"
"You lack control, even if your power is intimidating and that will be your flaw until you learn."
"What of my place? I am human, as you said earlier, beneath you. Why teach me if I am not even worthy of your attentions?" By now her voice had grown hotter and hotter until it seemed as if poison dripped from her tongue with every word.
"Even if you fail to notice my superiority, you confuse and infuriate this Sesshomaru." The daiyoukai looked coldly into the miko's sparkling eyes with contempt and grabbed her by the throat once again.
"And that will be your downfall."
Authors Note:
So this chapter is longer for all of y'all that mentioned having longer chapters. This was just an experiment guys, I might not be increasing the length of my posts so don't get TO excited.
Plus, for anyone hoping to get a short story... sorry. This fanfic is going to be taking the scenic route and I'm planning to drag certain moments out for maybe 2 chapters.
BUT... I love the feedback guys and I really appreciate everything:) I love you!
Hugs, disappearcompletely
