Something was wrong.
Seshoumaru tried to open his eyes but he couldn't. His body felt heavy and drugged. His senses were going haywire. Something was missing. No, not something, someone...
His eyes snapped open.
Kagome!
His beast fought against his exhaustion, snarling. His eyes flashed red as he realized that Kagome was gone. He couldn't sense her anywhere within the castle. Using his youki, he tossed away his current weakness and growled. His eyes were glowing red and his body was shimmering. He could sense somebody's faded presence in the room. Someone had taken his mate!
Throwing open the door, he was pushed back by a strong barrier. Snarling, he expanded his youki to the extreme and located Kagome's weak aura. She was calling for him subconsciously, drugged and frightened at the same time. He gritted his teeth and looked towards the window. Climbing onto the ledge, he looked startled at all the activity. The castle was under attack!
However, his gaze slid by his Father who was slashing at his opponents viciously with Tetsuiga, his trusty sword, and his Mother who was nonchalantly, slicing through the soldiers with her poison whip. His main focus was Kagome. He jumped down into the midst of all the bloodshed and gave no heed to his parents shocked and horrified looks, as he moved like a blur amongst the fighters, killing the ones, automatically who came in his path.
Noone was going to comebetween Kagome and him! Snarling, he dispatched one of his Father's advisiors, who had raised a sword towards him. Rushing forward, he caught the fading scent of the intruder, and realized that whoever the youkai was, was very far away.
Automatically, his body started shifting and reshaping, till he assumed his true form, a massive Inu. He rushed towards the scent, urgency filling his mind. The intruder was not yet aware that he on its trail. Using his four legs to propel him, he moved faster than ever, scenting his mate.
The scenery rushed by him in a blur as he focused on only one thing: Getting Kagome back. Failure was not an option. Suddenly, something twitched withing his mind. The lethargy that Kagome was under, was fading and she could get a grip of her senses. Somehow in his Inu form, he was better connected to her mind. She was trying to struggle. Somethign was familiar about the youkai holding her. He didn't have time to figure out her identity. But she was female, he was sure of it.
I am coming, Kagome!
She yipped in distress and he snarled in rage when he felt the female drugging her again, using a spell. A dark miko youkai? How dare she!
However, before he could focus much on that train of thought, an urgency filled his mind as he felt Kagome's renewed panic. No!
He was nearly there! His red eyes grew wide with horror as he realized the female's intentions. The Tree of Ages was glowing! She was going to use the Bone Eater's well to take his Mate away! With a burst of speed, he rushed past the village and spotted the youkai. There was dark bundle in her arms.
Kagome!
He busrt into the clearing, and the woman turned around, horrified. He howled in outrage in realizing the extent of this betrayal.
Higurashi!
Her shock was evident and she jumped onto the edge of the well. Realizing her intentions, he rushed towards her. He couldn't let her take away his life! He refused to let her!
However, her brown eyes shone with tears and she let out a soft cry, "I promise you will see her again!"
And jumped.
At that very moment, the sun broke throught the horizon, and it's rays hit upon the frozen inuyoukai, who slowly transformed back. Tears fell down his eyes as he mumbled brokenly, "K-Kagome-"
His heart shattered and he fell on his knees, sobbing, brokenly.
Kagome was gone.
