~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Inuyasha gripped the handle on Tetsuiga. Poised and ready to fight his half brother, he stood there looked confused and surprised when Sesshomaru's scent disappeared.

"Where the hell could he have gone?" Inuyasha wondered to himself.

Letting the grip on Tetsuiga fade, he shrugged and turned towards the hut, still alert to anything unusual.

'Why would Sesshomaru be around here...Unless he's after something!' Quickly breaking out into a run, Inuyasha leapt through the forest towards the hut. Thinking that Sesshomaru was after the Shikon no Tama...Never once thinking of Kagome...

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

Sighing as she followed Shippo through the forest, Kagome smiled solemnly as he climbed up a tree and sat on the lowest branch, which was just at her eye-level.

Shippo told her to stop, but then, losing his grip on the branch, he fell behind the tree. A gasp emitted from Kagome as she hurried around the tree to find Shippo. He was no where in sight. Quickly giving in to panic, she called out his name and then began running around to find him...only to get herself lost. She tripped over a half-hidden tree root and fell and braced for the impact that never came. She found herself in the arms of a very muscular individual. At first she thought it was Inuyasha, but then she felt the soft fur that would never have belonged to Inuyasha. She was lifted up, and she found herself looking into very different golden eyes.

A hand was placed over her mouth to muffle the scream that came out instantaneously. Pulling her close to his body, Sesshomaru rose into the air and started off towards his castle. He was just out of sight when Inuyasha came into the clearing they had been in seconds before.

Inuyasha picked up the scent of his half-brother, and the lingering scent of Kagome. A sudden dawn of realization hit him like a blow to the stomach. He doubled over and landed on his hands and knees. He stared at the ground for a minute as thoughts ran through his mind. 'Was he only after Kagome? She does have the Shikon no Tama, maybe he was only after that, but why take her too? Keep her as a prisoner? Maybe...I've got to tell the others!' Getting up, he turned and ran back the way he came. Back towards the hut.

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

"YOU LET HIM TAKE HER?!?! YOU BAKA!" Shippo was yelling at Inuyasha for letting Sesshomaru take Kagome. Inuyasha just sat there looking unhappy and grumbled something about the Shikon no Tama. Shippo hit him over the head and yelled at him again. "IS THAT ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUT?!?! WHAT ABOUT MOMMY?!"

"I'll get her back, Shippo. Don't worry. I'll bring her back in one piece....With the Shikon no Tama." Inuyasha muttered incoherently as he got up and walked toward the forest, Shippo glaring at his back before turning around and going back into the hut mutter something like "he'd better be going after her..."

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~ [meanwhile....]

She had fallen asleep on the way. Sesshomaru looked down at her and sighed. He hadn't gotten a fight, which was good, but now, now that she was here, he couldn't recall why he'd wanted her in the first place. How frustrating. 'Why did I ever want a mere human girl like Kagome? Why would I ever need one in the first place?' Sighing again, he carried her into the castle when they landed.

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

Waking up in the comfy bed, she sat straight up and looked around her. Her deep brown eyes took in her surroundings. Well, she was definitely not in the hut, nor was she at home in Tokyo. She was in a very massive room made of what seemed like marble. She looked down. The bed she had been placed on had black silk sheets with little snowflakes here and there. There was a wardrobe half-open that was filled with the most beautiful kimonos Kagome had ever seen. Then she recalled where she was when she fell asleep. In the arms of Sesshomaru...
