Chapter 7 Oh!
As Sesshoumaru neared the city, Alexa noted, that he kept to the trees to keep the people from seeing them. 'I 'spose it would look weird if someone was carrying a hurt girl and had a boa like thing over his shoulder...I hope we get there soon. I can't wait to see what his home is like.' Alexa looked at him. 'He has really nice clothes and was in First class, so I'm guessing he has a big enough house. It probably has at least one guest room, since he said I could stay.' Alexa's staring caught Sesshoumaru's eye and he looked at her with the corner of her eye.
'What a strange girl.' He thought. 'Something so compelling for me to help her, but this time I sense it is not my swords doing. What could be causing my act of kindness? I have done nothing of the sort since Rin died.' He looked at her closely. 'She has Rin's eyes and the same face. Maybe she is an ancestor.' He rethought about that. 'No. I never let any man go near her and she never was with child. No. It is something else. Something else...'
Alexa looked around the area. 'It seems to be getting dirtier and dirtier. Maybe he isn't as rich as I thought.'
They continued traveling. They went down a dead end with a wall at the end of it. It was very high and Alexa was sure nobody could scale it without help. Yet, Sesshoumaru jumped over it with no problem.
"Wow!" She said. Sesshoumaru looked at her again. Was there a question in his eyes? Alexa didn't know. "That is a pretty amazing jump! I would have thought no one would be able to scale it."
"It serves that purpose." He replied and Alexa tilted her head with a questioning glance. Sesshoumaru ignores her look and Alexa sighs and sweat drops.
"Will we be there soon? I do not want to sound like a whining kid, but I am being tired of being carried."
"Look." He says nodding his head towards the direction they were heading.
"Oh!" She says surprised. While she was starting to believe he was poorer by the minute due to the dirty area and crud. In front of her was an elaborate garden of all sorts of plants. Many were exotic and Alexa didn't understand how they survived out here. In the middle was a fountain with the clearest water that shone with the dawn's arrival. Seeing it Alexa sighs. "Beautiful..." She murmurs.
Beyond that was an amazing mansion, more like a castle. It had, what looked like, three floors and six towers of equal height. Vines crept up its sides with beautiful flowers. It was made of stone, but it wasn't crumbling with age. Alexa believed it to be ancient. To he it seemed it had survived many ages. The castle held so much power. How it could do it, Alexa didn't know. She didn't even know how she knew. Something else was there too. Alexa felt it. After a moment of just soaking it all in, she realized what it was. She felt an air of welcome.
~Inu Yasha~
'Damn this fucking dog body! Damn the whole fucking world! How am I supposed to get to Kagome without Alexa? She was the only one who could hear me! And where is she? Being carried off by Sesshoumaru! Damn my brother! He is still a full youkai! This dog form won't let me travel any faster! It is weak too!' He growls. 'What if Naraku finds me here?'
"Yes, what if he finds you here?'
'Who the fuck is that?'
'Haven't you figured it out yet? Ha! Even like the form I made you transform into, I thought you'd know who I was!" The voice chuckles evilly. "Poor Inu Yasha, trapped in a dogs body without his precious Kagome to help him. Tell me, who is this girl Alexa?"
"Naraku!"
"Fool. Even in your dog form, you should be able to smell out if he was here. No. I am not Naraku. I am honored, but do not compare me to that bastard! He was a weak human and is only half demon- like you once were. Ha! And you think he is still alive! I will tell you this. He might have been you're enemy, but a weak one compared to me. I am far more powerful! You will die before the end of the week. By then, I will have all my questions answered from you. Good bye till we meet again." The voice faded and everything went black for Inu Yasha, but not before Inu Yasha called out, "Who are you?!"
~Alexa~
Sesshoumaru came to the front door of his 'mansion' and set Alexa down while he opened the door. Once the door was open, he smoothly picked her up again and entered his home. Inside was a long hallway. The walls were white and had painting along it. The whole floor was covered in a red, plush, velvet-like rug. It was so soft that Sesshoumaru's footsteps could not be heard. Then again, they could hardly be heard almost anywhere else... There was not much else in the hall as they continued down it.
Part of the way down it he went through one the many engraved doors. All the doors were white. The room he went inside had nothing but a wooden floor and another door. So he goes through the other door. The room was in fact the kitchen. He sets her down on one of the chairs and leaves the room.
Alexa sighs. 'I hope he doesn't expect me to stay here forever. I think he should talk more about what he is doing. He probably-' Seshoumaru came back with a small toad like creature. The creature held a box of medical stuff.
"Jaken, bandage her wounds." Seshoumaru said.
"She is a stupid human! Why should I have to do this?" Complained Jaken, the toad thing. Sesshoumaru's response was just a heartless cold glare.
"Fine Sesshoumaru -sama. I will do so." He says and Sesshoumaru leaves. Alexa sighs. 'My life is just getting weirder and weirder.' She thinks.
