Chapter Six: Motherly Instincts
"Mom?" Called a young girls voice.
Kagome opened her eyes to see Kaida her silver eyes looking worried as she looked at her.
"Yes?" Kagome answered as the tiny fire cat meowed somewhere down by her legs.
"Are you okay?" Kaida asked her voice sounding worried.
Kagome couldn't help but smile, "Yes I'm fine."
"Suku." Kaida called as the little fire cat ran towards Kaida.
Kagome watched as Suku chased Kaida around in circles. She laughed and then she growled she sensed a youkai aura approaching.
Kaida hearing her growl ran to her side Suku close behind her.
"Mom what is it?" Kaida asked, looking scared.
Kagome stood Tetsusaiga instantly in her hand. "Stay behind me." Kagome ordered.
Sesshoumaru appeared he jumped in front of Kagome growling. He had grown extremely protective of Kagome. While Kagome had grown fiercely protective of her little cub. Or so Sesshoumaru called little Kaida.
Kagome growled and then he felt her relax. Although Kagome relaxed Sesshoumaru did not move. Until the aura of the youkai had vanished.
Kagome picked up Kaida and looked at Sesshoumaru, "Shall we." She said calling to Suku as they began to walk.
Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome, know he knew was the time to tell her. "Kagome I have to go to the my lands for a while to clear up a matter." He said softly surprising her.
Kagome looked back at him, "I must continue to search for answers Sesshoumaru." Kagome said.
Sesshoumaru nodded he knew she was going to say that. "I will catch up with you in about a week." Sesshoumaru stated and then he left quickly.
Kagome watched his retreating figure and then set Kaida down.
"Where we going mom?" Kaida asked looking at her intently.
Kagome smiled softly, "We're going to a village to get food." She whispered softly.
A smile graced Kaida's lips and she giggled, "Yeah." She said loudly.
Kagome started to walk Kaida ran after her Suku and her both staying close to the watchful demoness.
Kagome walked straight into the village. Some of the villagers gave her strange looks. While others whispered. Most just pointed at Kaida and whispered things.
Like "filthy Half Breed". Kagome growled darkly. How dare they talk about her cub like that?
Kagome shot one of the villagers a look that must of chilled his blood. Kagome's eyes were narrowed with anger and a deep feral growl was growing deep in her throat.
She turned to face the villagers, "I can hear you." She growled darkly. "Stop talking about my cub." She hissed barring her fangs angrily at them.
"Mom?" Questioned Kaida looking at her mother with a sad look on her face.
Then Kagome saw it out of the corner of her eye she saw a rock. Kagome spun and slashed the rock out of the air. Hatred flashed in here eyes and she growled.
"Stay." Kagome growled to both Kaida and Suku.
Then she walked towards the villager's anger filling ever step she took.
"Go back demon we don't want you, get out of our village." The Villagers hissed throwing rocks.
Kagome dodged each of the rocks and then she spoke. Her voice was a deadly chilling cold.
"Who do you think you are she is but a child. You make judgments when you know nothing." Kagome growled. "You should be ashamed of yourselves picking on a little cub like her." Kagome growled.
Then Kagome turned back around to see a boy with a scowl on his face throw a rock at her cub.
It hit Kaida who cried, "Mommy help me."
Anger overwhelmed Kagome and she ran at the kid. She picked the boy up and dangled him by his hair upside down.
"Don't you hurt my cub." Kagome howled in anger then she dropped the boy and called Kaida and Suku over to her.
"Come it is obvious we are not welcome here." Kagome growled and then picked up Kaida and Suku and ran out of that town as fast as she could.
Kagome growled when she was safely out of the town. Kaida looked up at her tears shinning in her beautiful silver eyes.
"Mom, why did that boy throw rocks at me?" Kaida asked.
Kagome bristled with anger, she had no idea how to answer that question.
Kagome hugged Kaida closer to her, "Because they are fools." Kagome growled.
Kagome set Kaida and Suku on the ground next to her. "Come now." Kagome whispered and then the three of them began to walk.
"Mom where are we going?" Kaida asked looking at Kagome.
A smile broke Kagome's lips, "Wherever the wind takes us." Kagome said softly as Suku jumped into Kaida's arms.
When without warning a demon hit the ground in behind her. "MOM." Kaida screamed and then ran behind Kagome scared.
Kagome growled but then realized that the demon in front of her was in pretty bad shape.
Kagome froze as another demon ran towards the fallen one. "Run Kaida." Kagome yelled and then she unsheathed Tetsusaiga.
Kagome jumped at the next demon in a second it was staring down Tetsusaiga's blade and a very pissed of neko youkai.
"Who are you?" the demon growled looking at her.
Kagome growled deeply, "Answer me first what do you want?" Kagome growled.
"I was chasing after this guy." The demon growled. Kagome realized that this guy was a neko youkai.
Like her but he had strikingly silver hair and the brightest blue eyes she had ever seen.
"MOM." Yelled Kaida, Kagome spun around the demon that had been on the ground had a hold of Kaida.
Kagome growled, "Let my cub go." Kagome brandishing Tetsusaiga at the demon.
It shook its head and put it's claws to her throat. "Let me go or I'll kill her." The demon growled.
A deep golden glow surrounded Kagome as the Shikon No Tama glowed around her neck. "Let my cub go now." Kagome growled.
When the demon made no move to, Kagome ran at him so fast that even he couldn't see. She slashed his face and he yelled and dropped Kaida.
Kaida ran behind her mother and Kagome raised Tetsusaiga. "You better start telling me why you threatened my cub. Or I'll run you through with Tetsusaiga." Kagome growled.
A flash of fear crossed the demons face. "Tetsusaiga doesn't that belong to the hanyou." He asked.
Kagome growled at his mention of what was obviously Inuyasha.
"Tetsusaiga chose me as its master." Kagome growled as Tetsusaiga began to pulse in her hand.
"Now explain to me why you attacked my cub." Kagome growled almost completely loosing her cool.
"You're cub but that is a hanyou, I see you and the hanyou." The demon said softly.
Kagome growled darkly, "No, I have adopted little Kaida and I care for her like she was my own cub."
"So you and the hanyou never." The demon started but Kagome cut him off.
"NEVER." She growled. Then Kagome picked up Kaida and walked away from the two demons.
Kagome watched little Kaida play with Suku. They both looked tired and truthfully so was Kagome. she yawned and then decided that they should make camp.
"Mom?" Called a young girls voice.
Kagome opened her eyes to see Kaida her silver eyes looking worried as she looked at her.
"Yes?" Kagome answered as the tiny fire cat meowed somewhere down by her legs.
"Are you okay?" Kaida asked her voice sounding worried.
Kagome couldn't help but smile, "Yes I'm fine."
"Suku." Kaida called as the little fire cat ran towards Kaida.
Kagome watched as Suku chased Kaida around in circles. She laughed and then she growled she sensed a youkai aura approaching.
Kaida hearing her growl ran to her side Suku close behind her.
"Mom what is it?" Kaida asked, looking scared.
