100 Themes Challenge Prompt #20 - Fortitude

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Naruto.


Chapter 21 - Fortitude

When she had smiled that way while playing around with the obnoxiously colored feline, he thought that she had probably lost her mind.

She had never brought it up after his one lie.

As if such a basic seal could trouble him.

From what he gathered, she had been locked in here for at least three years, and another six months with him.

He had thought that perhaps she was insane, or had given in to being locked up forever.

Yet when he noticed the weakening seal, he thought otherwise.

After all, a seal of such strength should have taken years or decades to weaken.

He was always right with his intuition.

A/N: I am glad that this fic isn't becoming awkward considering that I am using the 100 theme challenge as template, using its themes as it is listed, without skipping or randomly grabbing a number. (although, I did start at #10 instead of #1)

x0SilverFeathersx0 : Thank you very much for your kind comment. I am not the type that goes for romance much, I'm afraid. I prefer to stick to the dramas and adventures. There will be relationships and bonds formed later, once this arc is done.

Minogaki TenTen : Thank you for liking. I'm afraid that this is not a Kagome/Tobi pairing, at least, I do not have plans to venture into the realm of "falling in love". Seeing as there will be no definite pairing, it is safer to put it as Kagome/Akatsuki.
