The Pledge

by The Amazing Sakumachan

Higurashi Kagome was but a child when she pledged herself to Asakura Hao. She had always been a loyal, beloved subject to her Lord. It was only when she was tasked to keep an eye on Asakura Yoh that she began questioning herself. But a vow was a vow. [Series of drabbles - Kagome x ?]

Is she on standby?

Bored.

Completely and utterly bored out of her mind.

That was how Kagome had been feeling these past few weeks.

Hao had dispatched her as his eyes and informant the moment that Asakura Yoh left Izumo for Tokyo.

His intentions were clear but his instructions were vague.

"Keep an eye on him. Update me on his progress."

So for weeks, Kagome observed Asakura Yoh and his friends, hiding in plain sight and making mental notes on his characteristics, actions, and training.

Outside of the handful of times that Yoh touched her with his resolve and kindness, she'd been so bored.
