Kagome's POV

I barely listened as Sesshomaru told Jakken what had happened since he had left him and Rin at his estate. I played with the choker pendant and thought about the tug. It had to be him didn't it? That was the only explanation.

I eyed Sesshomaru and Jakken warily at the front of the carriage. Did it anger him that it was me?

I shook my head and scowled down at my feet. Possibly was me. I looked back up at Sesshomaru's back and his beautiful long white hair. Maybe he would try to find a way to break it. I almost whimpered at the ache in my chest from thinking about it being broken.

"Mi Lord how long will she be with us?"

I tuned into their conversation nervous to hear his answer.

Sesshomaru crossed his arms in front of his chest. "We will stay until she is trained, then we'll return."

I looked over at the passing trees and sighed sadly. If I learned my abilities as quickly as I learned the basics from Inuyasha we'd only be here for a few weeks. Would he just drop me off with Inuyasha or would he stay with the group until we finally brought down Naraku? If he did what would happen after?

I shook my head and tried desperately not to think about it. I had much more pressing matters to deal with before ever thinking about that. I had to learn what I could do, how to use the last of my purity.

I snarled quietly there were to many thoughts zooming through my head.

"Wench I can smell your anx-"

I blinked in surprise as Sesshomaru hit Jakken on the top of his head with the strange staff Jakken carried.

"Kagome." I shifted my gaze to Sesshomaru. "Her name is Kagome. You will use it."

Jakken rubbed his head furiously and glanced back at me with watery eyes. "Yes mi Lord."

I could feel my cheeks grow warm and looked down hiding my face in my hair. He's never done that before. I peeked up at him through my hair. Maybe I was wrong, maybe he'll keep it...but what happens then?
