Okay...chapter 14!
Disclaimer....I don't own it. This is the banana-ith time I've had to say it! Okay..ITS NOT MINE!!!!
Sesshoumaru rationalized his voice slightly. "Are you sure that she isnt anywhere in her room?"
Leila nodded frightenedly.
Sesshoumaru sniffed, trying to take in her scent. It was somewhat weak; she had not been in the castle grounds in at least 4 hours. Following her scent to her room, out her window and then in and out the small stable where he kept his oddest creatures.
She was gone.

Kagome swung her legs over the well, gulping as she looked down into the depths of the time traveling tomb. Pushing off the rough wood with her palms, she jumped in, closing her eyes as the familiar tingly feeling surrounded her. She felt her knees and her palms touch solid ground again, and she opened her eyes again. Looking up, she saw the roof of the Higurashi shrine blocking the sunlight....she was home. Sighing she sat down, glad to be home, when her elbow hit something.
"A ladder! Finally!" She pulled up her beautiful kimono and placed her foot on the bottom rung. Reaching her arm up, she winced in pain as her wound reopened, staining her clean bandages with new blood. "Darn!" She said, placing her hand on her shoulder. She barely managed to climb the rest of the ladder, and at the top she collapsed on the ground, heaving and grasping her shoulder. "Guess I'm in worse shape with this wound than I thought." She muttered before getting up again.
"I have to see if Souta is okay!" She said painfully, urging her body to stand.
"There!" Kagome said happily, steading herself. "I'm fine!" She walked out of the well house (what am I supposed to call it?) and went as quickly as she could to her house. Flinging the door open, she called out for her mom, but she got no answer.
"Mom?!" She called out, a little more loudly. Kagome flushed with relief as she saw her mother's head pop out of Souta's room. "Kagome! Here you are! Come see Souta..he's sick."
Kagome ran upstairs and entered her brother's room. He looked up at her wearily. "Kagome! I really missed you! You came back!"
"Yeah Souta! I came just to see you!" Kagome kneeled at Souta's bedside, hugging him.
"Kagome, that sure is a beautiful kimono. Who gave it to you?" Kagome's mother inquired.
"Oh.." Kagome blushed. "Well, actually, I-It's actually a pretty long story mom...uh, I-"
"Oh, Kagome, you're injured!" Souta exclaimed, bringing everyone's attention to Kagome's shoulder. "What happened? Are you okay?"
"Well, that's actually part of the long story....do we have extra bandages?"
"Oh, Sure! Let me bandage you up honey!" Kagome's mother exclaimed as Kagome let a deep breath out.

Sesshoumaru sniffed the air. He could smell her faintly..considering the fact she traveled through the air, he was doing well. He was, however, angry.
*How dare she leave me!* He thought as he tore across the forest. *When I find her, she will pay! Was she deceiving me all along? Perhaps she went back to Inuyasha.* With this final thought, his eyes turned blood red and he turned into his true demon form.his rage overtaking him.
He traveled for 2 hours until he smelled her scent strongly. *She must have landed here* He transformed back into the regular-Sesshoumaru-form and paced, trying to find where her scent led. *This is strange...her scent seems to just end at that old well*
He walked over to the bone eaters well and looked down. "Strange...." He muttered. "Didn't she once tell me she was from the future? Perhaps this well is some sort of time traveling device." (Sesshy sure is one smart puppy, huh!?)
Sesshoumaru leaped into a nearby tree. "I will wait until she comes back..then she will pay for leaving me."
~~~~
Kagome leaned over her brother. "You sure you're feeling better?"
"Yeah!" Souta replied. "I feel so much better! I think I was just worried about how you were, sis. I'll stay healthy from now on!"
"Okay then, I have to go now!" Kagome called out to her mother. She had regular clothes on now, and she had her overly-stuffed backpack strapped securely on her back.
"Bye sis!"
"Bye Souta!" Kagome said
"Hey sis?"
"Hm?"
"Will you say hi to Inuyasha for me?"
Kagome felt a lump grow in her throat. "S-sure souta." She ran out her house and proceeded to the well. Sitting on the side of the well, she suddenly remembered Sesshouamaru. She hadnt told him anything...she had been so concentrated on her task that she had totally forgotten him. Pushing off the side of the well, squinted her eyes
'I hope he forgives me...'
Kagome's knees touched the cold wet ground of the past and she slowly stood. Grabbing the long rope of ivy that served as a way to get up, she climbed it. Looking around she took a few steps, wondering how she was going to get back to Sesshoumaru's castle. Why had she come back anyway..Inuyasha obviously didn't need her anymore, he had Kikyou to help find the jewel shards. But..she felt as if she had some unfinished business with Sesshoumaru...well, she had told him she loved him for one. Kagome rubbed the back of her head.
Suddenly she was pinned to a tree, the rough bark grinding into her back. Kagome opened her squinted eyes which she had closed when she felt herself begin to move.
Sesshoumaru.
Kagome's eyes widened. "Sess-" She tried to say, but Sesshoumaru put his other hand at her throat.
"Do not speak." He commanded, rage in his eyes. "Were you deceiving me this entire time? Who did you go to see?"
Kagome had never seen Sesshoumaru this mad before. His eyes were beginning to get a reddish tint to them.
"I went to see my brother! He was sick!" Kagome used her free hand to grab his hair, bringing his face closer to hers. "I love my brother, Sesshoumaru."
Sesshoumaru stared at her for the longest time, trying to smell any guilt or lies on her.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I-I don't know, Sesshoumaru...I think I was a bit delirious from my wound. I had a nightmare that he was really sick because he missed me..and I left. I really didn't think. W-will you please let me down?"
Sesshoumaru released his grip on her and walked away.
"Are you coming back to my castle?"
Kagome sat against the tree. "I don't know...why should I?"
Sesshoumaru shot her a look. "You are going to come and live with me."
"How can I help YOU?" Kagome spat.
Sesshoumaru grabbed her wrist, searching her eyes. "where else would you go."
It was amazing how he could totally turn around her own question. "No!" She yelled in his face. "That wasn't an answer to my question." She glared at him. Before she could take another breath, he was kissing her.
"Is that an adequate answer to your question?" He said as he pulled away.
Kagome stared up at Sesshoumaru. Suddenly she started laughing, which puzzled Sesshoumaru to great extents.
"Yes." With that final statement, she grabbed his hair and kissed him, for the very first time that they had ever consciously kissed, Kagome was the one who started it.
*She is no longer like tommorow...always anticipated, never coming. She finally is today...here with me......no longer like tommorow...she is here.with me...*
A very happy ending, ne? The end, by the way. ^.^
Please review. I'm going to start another fic, by the way...another Sess/Kag, but this one isnt a sequel, just to tell you....its an entirely different fic. ^.^ Have fun and please review!
