~*~Chapter 1~*~
As sunlight beams into the clearing, a pair of golden eyes crack open. The world around him was bright yet blurry and a new but familiar scent filled his nose. His silver locks of hair were spread messily all around him and his body warm. He could feel that his tail was wrapped around something along with his arms. Ebony fruit-scented hair met his eyes as he turned his head. Beautiful, indeed…
~*~*~*~
Inuyasha awoke to a bright morning sun and yawned. The party had taken a lot out of him and he could tell by where the sun was positioned it was around noon. He stretches and looks around him. Sango and Shippo were asleep near each other and Miroku was passed out on the floor. The hanyou then noticed that someone was missing…Kagome. He frowns and walks out of the hut to look around.
"Kagome!" He calls out, seeing if she would hear him.
Greeted by nothing but silence, he frowns and proceeds to the hut to awake the rest of the group. Just where was Kagome?
"Oi! Miroku, Shippo, Sango! Wake up!"
Miroku groans and cracks open an eye, mumbling something incoherent. Shippo yawns and sits up along with Sango, "Wha…?"
Inuyasha frowns, folds his arms, and shakes his head. "Kagome is missing. She isn't here in the village."
This awoke Miroku at the blink of an eye, "What do you mean missing?"
Just then, Sango remembers the previous night. She recalled Kagome saying that she was going to take a bath at a nearby hot spring and told the rest of the group. Shippo nods, faintly recollecting as well. Then, without hesitation, they leave the village in search of Kagome.
~*~
Kagome awoke to an aching pain in her neck and she groggily raised a hand to check on it. As something warm and wet dripped onto her fingers, she gasped. On her hand was blood from supposed bite marks trailing down her neck. Then, reality hit her. She gasps and attempts to jump up, though to no prevail. Wrapped around her small waist was a fluffy tail and around her shoulders, an arm. Then, she did the very first thing that came to mind…she screamed. A hand covered her mouth as the first hint of her scream came.
Kagome's eyes widen as she turns around and sees a very unmistakably familiar face in front her own. 'Sesshoumaru!?'
His golden eyes were set upon her own and his hair gleamed in the noon sunlight. The reincarnated miko was baffled beyond belief when she realized that he was naked. Her face flushed as her eyes wandered. Suddenly, and only then, did she take notice of her own fully exposed body. Putting two and two together, her eyes tear uncontrollably.
He smirks down at her frightened face, sensing the fear radiating off of her. Everything working just as he planned…and perhaps even better. A scent he recognized all too well filled his nose and his smirk increases. Pulling Kagome closer to his body, he firmly presses his lips on hers, despite her protests. The kiss was searing and, in Kagome's point of view, disgustingly pleasurable. Kagome's gathered tears fall as Sesshoumaru deepens the kiss, nibbling on her bottom lip.
"Kagome!"
Sesshoumaru's senses proved to be right as his half-brother Inuyasha came running into the clearing with his friends in tow. The group stops in their tracks as they look at the sight before them. Inuyasha's eyes flash momentarily and he immediately grabs Tetsuaiga out of its sheath.
"What the hell is going on here?!" The hanyou shouts angrily.
Sesshoumaru lets out a chilly laugh and pushes a shaken Kagome towards the group, Miroku and Sango rushing to her aide. "Merely claiming what I want. I think that you wench has been and will be of much use to me."
Inuyasha growls fiercely and jumps for an attack, "KAZE NO KIZU!" The attack destroys the surrounding area and when all cleared out, the group found that Sesshoumaru was already gone. "Ch'kuso!" He swears, throwing Tetsuaiga down in frustration. He then rushes to Kagome, "Kagome! Are you alright? What did that bastard do to you?!"
The broken teen whimpers and chokes out a sob, shaking her head in the process. "I…I don't know! I can't remember!" With that, she breaks down into heart wracking sobs, unable to answer any more questions. Instead of saying anymore, Inuyasha takes off the top part of his outfit and wraps it, along with his arms, around Kagome. She grabs onto him as for her dear life and silently thanks him.
Soon, Kagome had fallen asleep and the group was left to wonder what had happened the night before. Sango shakes her head and sighs deeply, "Kagome-chan…" Shippo was crying softly at the thought of what happened to his mother-like figure and Miroku silent. Inuyasha sat with Kagome in his arms, thinking of ways to bring death slowly to his half-brother. Of all the things that Sesshoumaru had done in the past, this was the lowest. Breaking the silence Inuyasha stands up, Kagome in his hams. "Let's go back to the village…" Sango, Miroku, and Shippo look at him in sympathy and all nod, not saying a word.
'Dammit, Sesshoumaru…I'm gonna make you life more hell than I ever intended to in the past.'
~*~Kagome's Dream: 1st Person POV~*~
I walk through a long, dark corridor, wondering if it will ever end. My feet are more than tired by now. Why am I not in my school uniform? Why am I in a kimono such as this one? Tailored beautifully, with gorgeous designs to go with it and fitting my frame most perfectly.
Where am I going?
Where am I at the moment?
Dreams are so mysterious…
Finally, I stop in front of a door that had to stand at least five feet over me. Where does this door lead to? I don't know, so should I go in? Mother always said that curiosity killed the cat (and I call her a hypocrite for saying so).
Oh well, I say satisfactory brought if back, not to mention the simple fact that I'm not a cat.
Just when I start to push the doors open, a chilling voice speaks out.
"That is not a good idea, wench."
Gulping, I turn around to see a frightening sight. Sesshoumaru! What is he doing in my dream…?
"The answer to that question is simple, wench."
I am taken by surprise it's as if he could…
"Read your mind?"
This is not happening…why would he be able to read my mind? Why is he in my dreams? What the hell is going on?!
"What's going on here Sesshoumaru?! What have you done?!"
He laughs bitterly, "Well…if you want, you can go through that door and take a peak at you sub-consciousness."
My…? Well, here goes nothing…
I slowly push open the large doors and what I see horrifies me to no end. I can see a naked Sesshoumaru not-too-gently embracing an equally naked me in his arms, biting down onto the flesh that belonged to my neck. His fangs pierce my skin as he drinks the crimson blood oozing from the marks.
I suddenly feel queasy…
His hands are wandering…oh my god…
What is wrong with me? I can see myself biting into the crook of his neck and repeating his actions, even if I do not have fangs. What is this that I am seeing?! I slam the doors close with much effort, my back sliding down them from my exhaustion. I can feel sweat pouring down my face, mixing with the tears springing from my eyes.
"That is only part of what happened…do you not want to see more, wench?"
Wiping the tears from my eyes, I shake my head. "What the hell did you do to me Sesshoumaru?! Why…what was the point? What do you want to gain from doing so…? What do you want from me?" My eyes are closed but I can clearly hear his footsteps padding against the cold marble floor beneath me. I know that he is crouching before me because his cool breath is blowing against my face. I flinch as he takes my chin in his hand and tilts it up…but I refuse to look at him.
"You are bound to me as I am bound to you, wench. We are bound by blood and our sensual meeting the night before confirms that. You shall help me, Sesshoumaru Lord of the Western Lands, by any means attain Tetsuaiga. Do you understand?" His chilly voice is making my spine crawl in fear…
He places a kiss in the crook of my neck where he had bitten me the night before. I can feel his warm lip trail down and mark the skin there. Why am I letting him do this? What is wrong with me? Why do I feel so lightheaded? Why can I not focus? What has this bastard done to me…? His lips trail upwards, grazing my neck, jaw and chin on the way to my lips. With a slow kiss on my lips I hear him state,
"So many unanswered questions…what little time you have for them to be answered. I can hear your thoughts and feel your emotions. You are now mine…"
My eyes are tearing again and slowly, everything turns black. I know that I am leaving this god-forsaken dream world and returning to Inuyasha and the others. What am I going to do…?
Inuyasha…I do not want to betray you…
~*~End of Chapter One~*~
~.~ I'm sorry for such a short chapter but I really wanted to have this out by tonight…or technically this morning. My little cousin is bothering me to a great extent to get on the computer….It sucks really. I only get two hours to do anything on the computer and I only had an hour to do this chapter. I want my own computer……. Oh well, I suppose I'll get one soon enough; and whenever I do you can expect sooner updates. ^^; As I said above, your suggestions count a lot so I'd appreciate if you'd give out some. After all, I am at the reader's beck and call. ^o^ REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
