For dramatic effects..no A/N..I don't own InuYasha
Chapter 13
Kagome played with a loose string of her kimono. What did he mean by that?? Did he mean that he...loved her???
Did she love him back?
Inuyasha suddenly popped into her mind ("look Vegeta, its people popcorn!" "Arg..what is he on" Sorry bout that..that popped into my head...POP!) Tears threatened to leak from her already red eyes. 'no, he didn't need me anymore..he had Kikyou..Kagome put her hand to her shoulder, which was beginning to throb again. Kikyou had almost killed her..and who saved her? Sesshoumaru.
"I love you too." Kagome whispered, almost to herself.
Kagome turned around, only to see Sesshoumaru's face just mere inches from hers. He enveloped her in his warm arms and kissed her.
Nothing could describe the heat that ran through Kagome's body. It was like magical fire that kept her freezing cold and blazing hot at the same time. She felt a rush of adrenaline in her stomach, and the kiss lasted for over a minute. Sesshoumaru pulled slightly away.
"You should have been born a demon, girl."
Kagome smiled. "You like me better this way." She whispered, before she fainted.
As Sesshoumaru held her frail body in his arms, he thought to himself. She was exactly right.. He would much rather have someone to protect, and even though he might complain about how weak she was as a human, he knew that he liked her better that way.
Exactly that.
Sesshoumaru stood up and carried her protectively to her bedroom, where Leila was waiting, sitting in a chair. Catching sight of Sesshoumaru, she rushed over to him, anxious.
"M'Lord! Is she okay?! What did you do to her?? Did she over stress herself??!!!"
Sesshoumaru silenced Leila with a look.
"She's fine. She passed out." Was all his response to her many questions. He gently laid her on the bed and silently left the room.
Kagome tossed in her sleep, sweating and further stressing her wound.
~Kagome's Dream~
Kagome looked around. She was...home..in her own time! This was all familiar! She ran to her house, but it seemed as if she was running in water; her legs moved so slowly. She finally reached her house, and burst in the door happily. The atmosphere, however, was not so happy. Kagome rushed to the bedroom, where her mom was leaning over the bed. Mrs. Higurashi turned around upon hearing someone entering the room, and she exclaimed, "Kagome, thank goodness you are back!! Souta is really sick! He's been missing you!" Kagome's eyes widened. "Souta?" Mrs. Higurashi stepped aside, revealing a very sick looking Souta.
"Kagome, is that you?" Souta's eyes brightened. "I knew you would-" Souta stopped to cough "c-come home. I missed you a lot.." Souta was coughing again. The noise was deafening to Kagome's ears. It got louder and louder until she was covering her ears, kneeling on the floor. Everythink became hazy, and the room started swirling.
"Kagome! Where are you going? Don't you love me anymore?" Souta managed to say before he started coughing again.
"No! I'll come to you Souta, don't worry!!" Kagome's head throbbed and she fell backwards into nothingness...
~~
Kagome awoke with a start, sitting up in her bed. It was the middle of the night, and Kagome got out of her bed. Something wasn't right at home..she had to find Souta! Kagome stumbled over to her bow and arrows, and she climbed out of her window, before coming back into the room to grab some spare bandages and another kimono. As a second thought, she locked the door. She ran from Sesshoumaru's castle, without taking a look back; without thinking. She kept her bow in her hand and rubbed her eyes, lifting her head to face the darkness of the night. Suddenly she realized that she would never get far walking, after all, she was in the western lands.....and she had to go all the way the Bone eater's well. Remembering that there was a stable on the edge of the grounds, she kept an eye out until she spotted it. Walking inside, she was greeted by a strange two- headed beast, who thrusted one of it's head under her hand.
"Awww! No one must pay a lot of attention to you, huh!" She opened the stable doors and led the beast outside before climbing onto its back.
"Can you take me to the bone eater's well? Uuuhh.okay....go?!"
The beast was intelligent enough to sense that she wanted him to go, and he took off through the air.
"Whoa!! It can fly!?" Kagome exclaimed. "At this rate, we'll be at the well by tomorrow morning!
While she soared over the land of ancient Japan, she unfastened her kimono and rewrapped her wound. It was getting better, but she suspected there would always be a scar there, a memoir of the miko whom she was the reincarnation of...Inuyasha's first and only love. Kagome breathed in the fresh air deeply...the beast seemed to know where he was going, so she settled down into it's warm fur and slept.
~~~~
Kagome slept peacefully until she suddenly heard a whizzing noise. Opening her eyes, she realized that the beast had stopped moving, and facing her were 3 winged demons, glaring at her maliciously.
"What do we have here?" The first demon said to the second.
"I don't know, but she sure looks delicious!" The third one said, and the three laughed together. Suddenly the third one's eyes widened as an arrow went straight through him. He fell to the ground far below, and the other two turned to face Kagome.
"You will pay for what you did to him!" Disgusting beast number one yelled.
Kagome already had another arrow strung, and she took careful aim as beast #1 approached her. The arrow went through him as well, and he fell the ground.
Kagome watched him fall, and quickly strung another arrow, but the beast was already on her, almost knocking her down if it weren't for her faithful ride, who ducked and made distance between beast #2 and themselves. Kagome let loose her arrow, and killed the last beast.
Kagome settled back into the fur again, sighing. She petted her ride's head affectionately.
"Hey....You're pretty smart, y'know! I'll name you Ikaru! The beast sort of purred, and proceeded on with their journey.
~~~~~
The beast landed silently, and Kagome opened her eyes. There it was...The bone eater's well. She jumped off Ikaru and patted her ride.
"You can go now..I'm going through the well." With that, Kagome ran to the bone eater's well and jumped in, transcending her to her own time.
~~~~
Leila knocked on Kagome's door, but Kagome wasn't answering.
"Kaaagoome??? Are you in there?" Leila called. Finally, she tried to turn the knob, realizing it was locked. "Oh no!" Leila exclaimed. "What if her wound is really bothering her, and she can't move, and she's in trouble!" An idea suddenly clicked in Leila's brain. "I know! I'll go through the window in the garden!" Leila went around and looked through the window, searching.
"Kagome?!" The servant girl climbed through the window and pulled Kagome's bedcovers off her bed. "S-she's not there!! Kagome's gone!" Leila frantically searched Kagome's room before she ran to Sesshoumaru's room, rapping on the door. The demon lord opened the door, glaring at Leila.
"I'm sorry to bother you m'lord....but Kagome is gone!"
"What?!"
