Chapter 5

Previously-

If your going to kill me then do it, and get it over with. It is what you want, is it not? I just insulted you after all and you know that you can kill me easily. So do it now and get it over with."

"Stupid Human" was all he said before he had grabbed the back of my neck. I thought that it was the end, that this was going to be the last breath that I took and so I closed my eyes and waited for the blow. Before I realized what was happening, I felt hot soft lips upon my own, and when I opened my eyes he was gone.

What just happened? Sesshomaru..... kissed me?

Sesshomaru-

WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING??!?!?!?!?! She's nothing but another stupid human, and yet....... AND YET NOTHING!! But... BUT NOTHING.... you will not end up like your father. Steadily I began to restore my nerves. I had no idea why I had kissed that human, and I didn't want to know either. It was an incident that would never be repeated again. Are you so sure??? O SHUT UP OF COURSE IM SURE! I AM LORD SESSHOMARU OF THE WESTERN LANDS! MY WORD IS MY BOND! I WILL NOT DO IT AGAIN AND THAT'S FINAL!! UHhuhuh suuuuuuuuuuree! Keep that up and you'll be dieing very young.

I had been so deep in thought that I had never heard the intrusion into my quarters. So when a soft " milord" came from behind me, I was quite shocked. But I was too proud to show it, and kept my usual mask of indifference up. It was Kanan.

" Yes Kanan, what is it that has made you disturb me so?"

I could see that she was a little bit afraid, but after all her years serving in this castle, she had gotten used to my temperaments.

" Im sorry milord, its just that Kagome-sama.... well milord.... Kagome-sama.."

" Yes what about her? Spit it out Kanan. " I had grown weary of her rambling.

" Well milord, she is not in her room, nor anywhere in the castle. I believe that she has left the grounds and going to the woods."

"WHAT?" I snapped out full of anger " How STUPID is that wench?!?! She went out side the castle. Not even that she went into the Western Woods. Oh when I get my hands on her I'm going to.." I stormed out of the castle in search of that foolish human.

When I get my hands on that girl, she'll be lucky if I don't strangle her! What could she have possibly been thinking? What... what if it was me? What if it was because of me that she had left? Damn wench!

Kagome-

Well.... This is just going from bad to worse. First the mechanical killing machine kisses me and then just disappears *Flashback*"Stupid Human" was all he said before he had grabbed the back of my neck. I thought that it was the end, that this was going to be the last breath that I took and so I closed my eyes and waited for the blow. Before I realized what was happening, I felt hot soft lips upon my own, and when I opened my eyes he was gone. *End Flashback* Just at the thought of it made me turn red, just a bit, ok maybe A LOT. And then what, I decide to leave the castle, where its nice and warm, and theres HOT SPRINGS, for this. Im freezing my ass off in the middle of nowhere going wherever with no food, a bed or a really hot BATH WHATSOEVER! OH and a really big yokai looking at me like Im lunch.

"NANI?!??!?!?!?!"

Holy mother of God, where the HELL did that thing come from? I went to draw an arrow out of the quiver on my back, only to realize I had two shots left. DAMN IT!!!

Two shots for that huge thing! It wasnt going to happen. To tell the truth it looked like a giant worm, or better yet a centipede. Its face was just this mess of teeth. To tell the truth it looked like one of those creatures you see in those retarded horror movies. You know the ones where it goes and sucks all its victims' blood. Well those movies weren't that stupid at the moment, because that was exactly what this yokai wanted to do. I drew one of my arrows and took aim. I knew that I only had this and the one other shot, so I would have to make it count. I aimed my shot and was about to release, when I was sideswiped. I was sent sprawling through the air. When I hit the ground, there was a loud *SNAP* when I looked to see what it was that had made that sickening sound, I looked to see that my leg sideways, and my foot, was facing me. It took a minute for it all to catch up to my brain, but when it did boy did it hurt. It hurt so badly that my eyes began to tear. My vision was obscured from the water that was coming from them, but i tried to find my bow in spite of the pain. There it was, no more then ten feet away from me. But the problem was reaching it. I knew that I couldn't get up due to the small fact that my leg was BROKEN, but i had to at least try to crawl over to it, because I knew that if I didn't I was going to die and I just couldn't do that. Not here.... Not now. It took a lot of will power to move but I just knew that i had too. I reached my bow and took aim. The pain was excruciating, but i had to do it. I took the arrow my bow in hand and took aim. The creature was right on top of me now, and I knew that it was right there at that moment that I would have to shoot and if I didn't that was it, game over. I let my arrow fly.....

Sesshomaru-

I had been following her sent. It was faint, but it was still there nonetheless. I knew that I was getting closer, because her sent was becoming stronger and stronger. But the only problem with that was there was also another sent along with hers. I couldn't quite make it out, all I knew was that it was a yokai, and it was very close. She's dead... and if she's not, then i am going to KILL HER! That stupid human is more trouble then she's worth. O really? Then if that's so then why are you going after her? hmmmm? Why not let her go and leave her to die out there? Is it because you have feelings for this human? No that's absolutely ridiculous. Then why? Naraku! That is why. As i said early she is bait and nothing more. Keep tricking yourself Sesshomaru, one day you will admit the truth.. one day. O shut up! Then up ahead, maybe a mile or so, there was a blinding light , and then the smell of blood.

THE END

..............................................

A. N./ MUHAHAHHAHAHA Now do you REALLY think I would end it lyk that? Common... that would have been pretty evil though.*silently hides* here you go.. .

Kagome-

I let my arrow fly........

And it went right down that suckers throat! The stupid thing ate it. It went down and then it exploded. There was purple and green blood everywhere, and because it had been so close, it had covered me completely. Great could this get any worse? I have a broken leg and Im covered head to toe in purple gook. Nothing else could POSSIBLY go wrong.

I heard something behind me and I grabbed my last arrow turned around. Just as I was about to release, I realized who was standing there. It was a VERY pissed off Sesshomaru. I hear by eat my words.

" Ummm..... Hi...uhhh....... Sesshomaru"

"Hi? HI? That's all you have to say you stupid human. And what happened here? hmmm?

He's gunna kill me..... he's gunna kill me!

" Not much....." I lied

" Doesn't look like that to me." He said in a low deadly tone.

" Nothing I couldn't handle...." I started to drift off a bit.

" You really are stupid aren't you! To think... well never mind. Well get up, or do you enjoy sitting there in yokai blood?"

I had been so scared that Sesshomaru was going to kill me that I had forgotten the pain in my leg, and the fact that it was broken.

" Ummm....."

"Now what is it?" he said in a tone that made it clear that whatever patience he had were running down fast. I knew that my leg was broken, but what was I going to do say "o great lord in that fight that your so pissed that i was in in the first place I was injured. and I can't walk." I don't THINK SO! Letting my own bit of pride get in the way I answered him quickly with " it's nothing". With that he turned around and started to walk, expecting me to follow behind. There was a considerably large bolder beside me, and I thought about using it a support, along with my bow. I knew that first I would have to straighten my leg out first, so sticking the top end of the bow into my mouth, I clamped down and turned my foot the right way. I was happy that I hadn't screamed, but there were still tears on my face and when I looked up I saw that Sesshomaru had stopped and was looking at me. Crap he's going to kill me now for being so slow. Just dandy. I went and stood my bow up and went to grab the rock. Using the few reserves of strength and possibly a miracle, I was able to stand up. By now Sesshomaru had become so annoyed as to backtrack.

"Wench! What is taking you so long?!?"

" Coming..." I took a step towards him and the pain that shot through my leg was so agonizing that everything went black.

Sesshomaru-

When I landed the scene in front of me was unbelievable. There was a dead centipede yokai on the ground, or rather scattered around on the ground and there was Kagome. Her back was too me, but her bow was still in hand and I was truly impressed by her. She was covered in the things foul blood, but still it didn't matter. The only thing that mattered was that she was still alive. When I took a step towards her, she had turned around with her bow drawn taught, ready to fire. She lowered her weapon after a minute, but there was a look of fear on her face. Some small part of me wished that there wasnt, but at the same time I was glad that there was. I knew what she was scared of. She was scared of me. Somehow that thought seemed to hit a spot in my stomach.

I had been very cross, and then got impatient and had to walk away, mostly due to the urge to throttle her and kiss her at the same time. When I had gotten a respectable distance ahead I stopped and turned expecting her to be there behind me, but she wasnt. She was still in the spot where I had left her . I saw that she was starting to stand with bow in hand, it looked as if she were in pain as she got up. But just as suddenly as it had appeared, it disappeared. I started to walk back towards her, to see what was taking her so long, "Wench! What is taking you so long?!?" I asked in a very annoyed voice.

" Coming..." she said as she took a step towards me and the pain that I thought I had seen before returned and then she started to fall.

Using my abnormal speed, I was able to catch her before she hit the ground. I tried to see what was wrong with her, and that is when I noticed her leg. It was very limp and hanging at the wrong angle, even though I could tell that she had tried to right it herself. Goddamn it why had I been so stupid? Why had I not noticed before instead of berating her like a child. I was so worried about my pride that I didn't notice that she was lying to me when she said that she was fine. Was it because she thought I wouldn't understand? Did she think that I would hurt her? All these thoughts raced through my head as I raced back to the castle to get Kagome the treatment that she needed. I could see the bruises that were already starting to form on the back of her neck. Probably from when she was thrown. It took me less then twenty minutes to reach the castle and when I stormed through the main doors holding Kagome in my arms, it scared the servants.

" Kanan" I yelled for the servant.

" KANAN!!" The other servants cringed as my voice echoed through the once silent halls. Kanan had arrived just before I was about to shout for her again.

"Yes milord, what is it?" she asked before she saw that I held Kagome in my arms.

"O my..... what happened milord?"

"I will tell you later... when there are fewer ears around. She needs a Doctor... NOW."

" Yes milord, I will go fetch her now, where will we find you. Kagome-sama's room?"

" No. Accompany the Doctor to my quarters."

" Yes milord" she said with a low bow and took off down the hall in search of the Doctor.

I carried her to my quarter's, where I laid her on the bed and awaited the Doctor to come. Her body had been shaking the whole way here from the shock, but Kanan had not noticed because of how hard I had held her to me. I was a self-admitted wreck. What could she have been thinking going out into the Western Woods like that?! I noticed that her body was starting to shake with a much greater force then before. Now, it was not only because of the shock, but she was starting to get a fever. I laid my hand over her fevered brow and then gently started to trace her face. Where the HELL was that Doctor?!?!?!?! I had no other choice. She was just shaking so much. I took off the heavy armor that I almost always wore and laid down beside her. I drew her in close to my body, and held her tightly in my arms to help stop the shaking. Lying there with her, even though she was in this state, it all just seemed so right. She was so small, that she fit perfectly into me. I brought the cover over us so that way there would be more warmth. A few minutes later Kanan and the Doctor walked in. I do have to give them credit though. They held their composure very well when they walked into my chamber and saw me in bed under the covers next to Kagome, holding her so tightly against me. As the doctor approached, I slowly withdrew from Kagome and left the bed, to stand beside it.

" What happened?" the Doctor asked.

" She was attacked by a centipede yokai, she killed it herself, but was injured. I strongly believe that she broke her leg and she now has a fever. She's been shaking worse then ever also."

"Thank you, now let me take a look here. Well her shaking seems to have died down a bit, Im guessing from the warmth that you were providing her milord. Her leg is definitely broken, but that can be fixed. The thing that I'm most worried about at the moment would be her fever. "

"Mae.... can you help her?" I asked her quietly. She seemed to be shocked that I had used her name instead of Doctor like I always did. Kanan had even picked up on this, but had kept quiet.

" Y-yes milord I can. She will be fine. It may take some time, but she will fully recover."

" Thank you Mae. I expect to be kept up to date and to be called when she wakes up. "

I turned to Kanan and said to her " Kanan you will assist Mae in any way that she needs. I want Kagome watched at all times. If she does not wake up tonight I will watch over her during the night." With that I turned and walked out of the room, leaving something important behind.

It was three hours before sunset when I had let Kagome with Mae and Kanan, it was now an hour after dark and still no word about her condition. I had spent the hours wandering around the castle gardens. Watching the fish swim in the small reflecting pool ,watching as the servants tended to all the beautiful flowers that surrounded me. I was growing impatient and I wanted to know what was going on. Just as I was about to go and see what was happening, Kanan came around the corner.

"Well... speak Kanan. Is she awake?"

" No milord she's still in a fevered stated. Mae has given her something for it, but she says that Kagome-sama has to fight it off herself. I came as you ordered milord, so you can watch over Kagome-sama during the night."

"Thank you Kanan... You may go." With that I turned my back.

"If I may say milord.... it stresses us all to see her like this." I was a bit shocked that she said this, but it was good to know that she was there. Kanan had always been loyal to me. I trusted her very much. I returned to my chamber, just in time to see Mae leaving.

" Kanan says that she is not well."

" No milord. It will take time."

" I understand Mae.. Thank you."

" Your welcome milord, I will come to check on her tomorrow. For now all we can do is wait. She needs to be kept warm and a cloth with cool water wouldn't be a bad idea either milord, Goodnight."

"Good night Mae."

I went into the chamber to see Kagome lying there almost as she was before. All of the dirt that had been on her before had been washed away, and she was in different clothes. Her leg was splinted and she was still shaking. on the side table, there was a basin filled with cool water and the cloth was already on her head. I gently removed the cloth from her head and rewet it in the basin. As gently as I had removed it, I had replaced it. Then as before I crawled in beside her and pulled her within my arms, and held her tightly until she trembled no more. As I was lying there I started to drift off into sleep myself. It seemed that all was right, now that I was laying next to her. This feeling both humbled and appalled me. But for the moment, I was content to lay there and sleep. That is..... until the dream came again.
