Predictable Chaos - The Favor
"You know this pervert?!" Kagome held out a hand for Miroku so that he could pull himself up from the ledge.
"Yes. He's one of my closest friends." Miroku dusted himself off.
"A little help over here!!" A small feminine hand parachuted into the air. A look of forgetfulness crossed Miroku's face and he turned back around to help his companions out.
"Sango! Shippo! Kirara!" Kagome once again fell to her knees to pull her three friends into a tight hug. She never wanted to let them go again and risk all of them disappearing from her life. A light tapping commotion came from beneath Kalea's foot. She was growing very impatient with these mortals. Kagome released her friends from the death hold hug.
"Oh, um, Kalea this is Sango..Shippo...Kirara..and Mir-"
"I know who he is. He's that perverted monk who groped my backside two years ago." Miroku blushed as Sango stepped up beside him.
"You man-handled a goddess?" Miroku looked a little surprised.
"I didn't know she was a goddess at the time!" Kalea brought her hands to her hips.
"Would it have made a difference?" Deciding that it was best to stay away from anything with estrogen, Miroku made his way to the entrance of the cave where Sesshomaru was standing and did not take notice of the pink electrical riplets. He let out a loud yelp as the juiced powers of Mother Nature forced their way through his body. Kalea rolled her eyes and plucked the priest from her barrier.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!"
"My barrier. Obviously your monk senses didn't pick up on it." Miroku fixed his robes.
"I picked up on it from the beginning. I was just testing it."
"Yea ok whatever." Sesshomaru walked out of the cavern and towards the divine being.
"Are you going to help or am I just wasting my time?" Kalea turned to face the demon lord; the smile not leaving her face.
"I would love to Sessy but I can't." The youkai continued to look at her, thinking that if he stared hard enough she might blow up.
It felt like someone shot Kagome through the heart. They had come all this way with all the hope in the world to bring the hanyou out of his youkai state, only to lose that hope to a conceited goddess. Sesshomaru noticed the forlorn look that fell upon Kagome's features. He would not give up that easily to the deity.
"You owe me Kalea."
"I noticed. But in all seriousness, I can't. Your pervert here caught my attention which forced me to exit through the barrier."
"Point?" Kalea paraded towards the demon prince.
"My POINT IS, that I was regenerating. I made that barrier so that no annoying mortals - no offense- would bother me. The barrier was made so that I only could come out when I was fully regenerated. I wasn't. Now I can't get back in. I guess i'll have to find another place of solitude and concentrate on getting my powers back to full potential." Kagome's sad eyes looked up at the goddess she had studied in school and talked about at home.
"So that's it? Once you come out there's no going back?"
"Basically."
"So you can't help us?" Kalea's heart sunk from the look the teenager was giving her. Her violet eyes softened a little.
"I wish I could but i'm useless in this state. My energy will run out soon. Unless..." A spark of hope fluttered in Kagome's eyes. The maiden sat cross legged beside the hanyou and stared at him, contemplating her options. Kagome sat across from her.
"Unless?" Kalea sighed. It had been so long but....
"Well...my spiritual powers are still higher than any mortal's no matter what state my other powers are in. With the right supplies, i'm sure that I can cook up some kind of healing spell and activate it. My physical healing powers may be low but I still got my noggin. Is there a village anywhere near here?" Sango pointed towards where the group had come from.
"We passed one before coming here."
They had been traveling for hours in total silence. Kagome sat in between the goddess and the unconcious Inuyasha on Kirara. She stared at the back of the powerful inamorata. This was her only hope. Her last hope.
Kalea could feel the stares coming from behind her. They were strange vibes that held hope but a sadness along with it. Kalea surprised the girl when she spoke.
"Have ye of little faith..."
"I trust you. I have one question though."
"What?"
"What favor do you owe Sesshomaru?" Kalea literally choked on her own thoughts at the question. It was the question that she dreaded every morning. She gulped. She had to tell someone sooner or later.
"Well...me and Sessy grew up together- if you can believe that. I had quite a temper when I was younger and would pick fights with the meanest of the mean. Well I was just starting my goddess training...you know, like where you learn how to use your powers? Anyway, I picked a fight with this terrible female youkai, even though I was the weaker one. She could've killed me right then and there but Sesshomaru jumped in and saved my life. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. He was so handsome standing over me with his....whip...thingy....and saving me from certain death. I told him I owed him and I keep my word. " Kagome raised an eyebrow at the remark Kalea made about Sesshomaru's appearance.
"You had a crush on Sesshomaru?!" Kalea fell of Kirara, the hint of blush in her cheeks turning five shades darker.
"Egads!! Are you crazy?! Of course not! I'm a goddess and he's a demon! News flash: wouldn't work!!" Kagome laid her head in her palm. She was amazed that this woman still held the qualities of a teenager and schoolgirl crushes.
"Why not?"
"Coversation's over."
"But you didn't answ-"
"Nope."
"Oh, don't start th-"
"Zippit!"
"Just tell m-"
"Nah-uh!"
"Just tell me you had feelings for him!!"
"AH! SHUSH UP!" Kagome opened her mouth for another statement but a heavy material fell over her mouth and she realized that Kalea used the last bit of her physical powers to shut Kagome up. Kalea lowered her head, letting a few crimson and amber ringlets fall over her eyes.
"He goes for sophisticated and that's something I could never be. Do you know how many times the gods have threatened to kick me out of the heavens for lewd conduct?" Kagome's eyes melted with curiosity.
"I mean, how was I supposed to know that we weren't allowed to mix with Greek gods? But damn, that Apollo was hot!" Kagome sighed and glanced over at Inuyasha. Her hand graced his cheek and he seemed to relax for a second. Kalea jumped back on to Kirara's back and laid her head on the giant cat. Her heart wanted to feel for someone like that. More ringlets fell over her magenta eyes.
"It gets lonely in the heavens..." It was then that Kagome's nose caught the fragrance of roses in the air.
Next chapter: The spell takes place and we get to hear from Inuyasha again. Plus, we find out a lil more about Sessy's past. And some action too.
