Unaware of what was going on, Kagome contemplated the auras she was feeling as she rode the elevator up to her father's penthouse. One had her extremely worried, it reminded her far too much of the Shikon, only without the taint. The other she had no idea who or what it belonged to.
"Miss, I highly recommend that you return to the ground level." the sound of JARVIS' voice broke through her thoughts.
"Thanks JARVIS, but I'm tired and want a shower." Kagome shifted the slip that held her new bow, one that Sesshoumaru had given to her recently, much to her father's displeasure.
It had been her first day back into archery. After not practicing, even if it was for a few months, she'd felt out of shape and rusty. She had started out missing her targets, but pushed herself till she eventually managed to get a good cluster around the center.
When her ride ended she exited the elevator and began to speak to her father. "So how was your..." she trailed off at the sight that greeted her. "...trip to Germany."
Her father stood, looking smug as a strangely dressed man held a scepter up to his chest. A rather sharp tip rested against the arc reactor there.
"I'm... going to go to my room and leave you and your new... friend." She dragged out the last word, as she wasn't sure what the strangely-dressed male was to her father. She turned to leave the room, leaving them alone.
For all she knew, he could be one of her father's friends. He was eccentric enough.
AN: Almost didn't make todays update due to the fact that I suddenly fell under the weather. Hopefully it's something that's just quickly passing through, especially with the fact that classes did just start. Read, enjoy, and review!
