Gomen nasai minna-san! It took me so long to update this chapee, it's vacation in here but I have an advance class for first year of high school everyday, that's why I can't write everyday. Gomen nasai. Yurushite kudasai. Now to the chapee. (^_^) This chapee is sorta about Sesshy's past, don't be angry or anything. But don't worry; at the bottom part is the greatest/funniest!
Disclaimer: sorry I forgot to put it in chapter 1, 2, & 3. I don't own Inuyasha characters. I only own some of the characters.
CHAPTER 4- why did you leave me?
"Rin." Sesshoumaru called his daughter (adopted), in his arm cuddled a happy miko. He search the garden for the little kid, but found no sign of Rin. He sighed and walk towards a big boulder, gently placing Kagome on the tree beside him, he relax himself on his favorite boulder and sat down. He's not in the mood of finding Rin today, she'll eventually appear.
"Sesshoumaru, aren't you going to find Rin?" Kagome asked the Lord, a hint of worry visible in her voice, she leaned her back against the tree in a comfortable position. She notice the calmness of the youkai Lord's face and so she began to smile, 'I've never seen Sesshoumaru this calm, his body is relaxed. I wonder what he's thinking about right now.' She thought silently.
"Don't worry, she'll come out eventually when she knew we're here. Jaken will tell her when he sense us." He told her calmly, 'what does this human have that calm me? Did she put a powerful spell on me to act this strange to her? But I don't feel or smell any magic spell used on me.' He thought confusedly. As if Kagome heard his thought, she answered it herself.
"Don't concern yourself, I didn't put any spells on you, I hardly knew any." She spoke calmly, noticing Sesshoumaru stared at her, and she felt unease of it. "What's wrong with you? You have been staring at me quite sometimes. Are you feeling okay?" she asked annoyed.
"Why is it you keep on reading my mind you witch?" Sesshoumaru asked coolly, he noticed her eyebrows twitching madly, her palms turning into fists.
"I'm not a witch! You keep on giving me nicknames! How will you feel if I give you a nickname for every nickname you gave me?" she asked madly. Wanting to punch the 'Lord of the Western Lands', she hates nicknames!
"Whatever you say, wench." He mocked her; he enjoyed himself whenever he says something the girl doesn't want and she can't help but to be annoyed by his words. He watched the miko clench her fist ready to attack if only her ankle obeyed her and let her walk a few steps and gave Sesshoumaru a punch. But sighed in defeat, she calmed down and let her body relax.
"Okay Fluffy, your lucky I can't stand or else you're going around the world with my punch." She stated calmly, before she can close her eyes, Sesshoumaru grab her throat and pinned her on the rough surface of the tree she was leaning on earlier. He glared at her angrily.
"Don't ever call me that nickname or else you wouldn't live long." He threaten her. His grip on her tightened, a sharp claw pricked causing small droplets of blood ran from her neck. 'Shit! I didn't mean to hurt her, and I also didn't mean what I just said.' He thought guiltily.
"Go on, kill me if you want. Nobody cares, and I have no reason to live for, well… except for Rin." She stated calmly, closing her eyes, as if waiting for the attack soon.
"You'll live for Rin?" he asked softly. *What about me?* a voice whispered inside his mind. 'Who the hell are you?! And how dare you think that!' he mentally shout back. *Baka! Why I'm you of course, even if you don't admit it to yourself that you cared for this human, I knew that you're jealous that she didn't mention your name on the reason for her to live.* 'Shut the hell up.' He snapped mentally. The voice didn't argue with him so he allowed himself to calm down. He released the miko gently and kneeled down beside her; he then ripped a small part of his sleeve and began to wipe the blood from the small wound he created on the flawless neck of Kagome. Kagome stared at him shocked, 'one moment he's being a jerk and now he's being a gentleman, what's gotten into him?' she thought confusedly, she stared at him as he again ripped a small part of his sleeve, but a bit longer than the first one. He gently wrap the cloth around her slim neck and tied it on the left side.
"Sorry for hurting you, I didn't mean it. The ones I really cared for are the only ones that I will allow to call me that, anybody would be killed. So don't call me that." He stated unemotionally. 'Am I dreaming or what?! Did I just heard him apologized to me? Definitely dreaming.' Kagome thought silently. He glared at the miko menacingly; Kagome glared at him back equally the same. They glared at each other for a few minutes but suddenly interrupted when a squeal of delight can be heard below them. They broke their glares and look at the small child beneath them.
"Kagome-neechan! Sesshoumaru-sama! Can Rin play with you? Can Rin join your glaring contest? Can you play hide and seek with Rin? Because Jaken-sama is tired and Rin want to play! Can Rin play dress up with you Kagome-neechan?" Rin requested excitedly. Kagome smiled at the child happily, Rin reminded her of Shippou. She lowered herself and gave the small child a hug, Rin squealed and hugged back.
"Hey Rin! One by one okay? I can't remember everything you just said! Let's play it one by one okay?" she laughed happily. Staring at the younger child, Kagome suddenly poked Rin's side and watched her jump slightly. She began to poke it more and more until the child is rolling all over the meadow.
"Stop *hahaha* neechan *hahaha* it tickles! *hahaha* stop!" she manage to cough out with some laughs. Kagome continued to poke Rin until Rin give up.
"So? You give up already? Come on give up! Give up!" Kagome laughed uncontrollably. She felt the piercing gaze of the Lord beside them watching them play together. 'Who cares? I've experience being stared at my own world. So what would be different?' Kagome assured herself. Still laughing hysterically, she began to read the mind of the Lord without him knowing it.
Sesshoumaru stared at the two human, he felt a bit jealous of the scene in front of him, and he felt jealous of the child. 'Rin is lucky to have Kagome; she is perfect to be her playmate, maybe sister. I never felt that lucky when I was still a pup' he thought bitterly.
~~~~~* FLASHBACK *~~~~~ (after the death of his mother)
A 10 years old inu-youkai sat on his favorite boulder beside the flowing clear river. He use to go there when he felt lonely or needed to think about the past, that place gives him his mother's memory, the only one he cared for, protected and loved. 'Why did you leave me okaasan? You told me that you'd never leave me; you told me that you love me more than anything in this world. Then why leave me now when I need you the most?' he thought sadly
~~~~~ 8 year old Sesshoumaru's P.O.V. ~~~~~ (before the death of his mother)
My mother died because of heartbreak, she found out father's affair with a human wench and left me after a week when the hanyou mutt is born. She felt betrayed; she had wished she shouldn't have married father, and the day the mutt was born, my mother took me out side our palace and sat beside the river. She patted the ground next to her, I knew what my mother wanted and sat beside her.
"Sesshoumaru, do you feel betrayed by your father like me?" my okaasan asked, I can feel her aura, full of sorrows in it. Her amber eyes were swollen from crying when she found out that her mate would be the father of the human wench. She had been thinking of what will happen next, will she accept the human and the hanyou a part of their family?
"Hai okaasan, otousan is so baka, how can he, the most powerful youkai living mate with a human wench? I can't believe him, what will happen to us okaasan? We are still a family right?" I asked hopefully, 'I can't believe otousan mated with a human, pathetic human.' I thought angrily, clenching my fist and gritting my teeth. My mother notice this and reached out her delicate hand to place over mine, surprisingly I began to calm.
"I don't know Sesshoumaru, I don't know if I'm able to accept this event. I don't know if I trust you otousan starting now. He betrayed me, I trusted him, and he told me that I'm the only one he would love as a mate. But Sesshoumaru, this doesn't mean that you should hate all humans, not all of them are the same, you may find a good one and a evil one, please don't hate them." Okaasan requested softly, she stared at me to find any hint of disgust; I just nodded silently disgusted by the thought of not hating all humans. 'Humans are nothing but trouble, their weak emotions are disgusting, all of them are pathetic. They are no match for us youkais.' I thought silently to myself.
"Some human are troubles but some are not, emotions are not disgusting Sesshoumaru, one day you may find emotions in you, even now. You cared, love, that's already emotions. And not all humans are pathetic; don't think of that just because you are a powerful youkai." Okaasan answered my thoughts aloud. 'How… how can she read my thoughts? I didn't said it aloud didn't I?' I thought amazed by my okaasan's ability to read minds.
"Sesshoumaru, I can read your thoughts because I have the ability to, my father is an inu-taiyoukai, he is powerful and he mastered the ability to read the minds of both humans and youkais. You have the ability too, you inherit that from me of course!" She explained happily.
"Okaasan, do you love me?" I asked sullenly, remembering the event earlier makes me feel alone. 'I know it sounds silly, but I can't stop thinking about it. My otousan used to love me, all attentions towards me, but now the hanyou Inuyasha is born, he treat me as if I don't exist in this world. I wonder if he still loves me.'
"Of course Sesshoumaru! What a silly question! Will I take care of you until now if I don't love you? And I love you more than myself!" Okaasan laughed, "And your otousan still loves you, I think. It doesn't mean that he doesn't love you just because he had a new son. Sometimes attention towards people or youkai doesn't last forever." She stated calmly looking at the peaceful flowing of the river.
"Okaasan don't leave me okay? I don't want to be alone, otousan already has a new family, and maybe he doesn't love me anymore. What will I do without you?" I pleaded solemnly, otousan has a new family, and it's only okaasan and I. She nodded her head, signifying that she had promised me now.
Then there was rustling sound behind us, we jumped in battle position and have our senses on guard.
"Youkai, show yourself." Okaasan commanded menacingly, her emotion at mask. Standing in front of me, she released her katana and it transformed into a fang. I was fascinated at the sight, it glimmer in the sun, beautiful sky-blue colored fang.
Just then a snake youkai attacked from behind me, I was thrown rather harshly against the garden wall, I saw my okaasan's worried look and began to stand up on my feet as to not upset her. She was relieved when I stand and turn her attention towards the snake youkai.
"You dare hurt my precious Sesshoumaru! Now you will die!" the queen snarled and quickly attacks the youkai, the youkai who didn't prepare for the attack was shred into pieces. The queen smirked at her masterpiece, eyeing her son, she quickly ran to his side to see for any severe injury.
"Sesshoumaru daijobu desu ka?" okaasan asked worriedly, I nodded and hugged her tightly, happy that I was not injured so badly.
"Hai! Daijobu desu! My back ache a bit that's all. Can we go home now okaasan? I'm tired." I exclaimed tiredly, I wanted to go home, to make sure no other youkai would attack us. Our castle has a barrier, only those who are allies with the royal of the palace are allowed.
"Okay Sesshoumaru. Go to your room right away when we get there so that you don't stress yourself." Okaasan said calmly. We headed for the river to let okaasan wash her blade, glimmering when contacted with the rays of the sun. Okaasan sheathed her blade and took my hand.
We were at the barrier when a servant scurried and kneeled in front of us, head bowed down.
"Lady Kosan, Prince Sesshoumaru, Lord Inutaisho awaits you in the meeting room." A hawk youkai informed us, bowing again, he scamper to the palace for his duties.
We walk silently through the grand halls, glancing at some servant as they bow their heads in respect; we bowed in response and proceed to the meeting room. Two servants appear in front of the glorious doors, bowing slightly, they open the grand doors and stepped aside. We murmured a silent thank you and walk inside. We were approached by otousan and waved us to sit on the luxurious long table; we sat beside him and waited patiently for the reason for us to be there.
"Lady Kosan, Sesshoumaru, I'm sorry for not telling you two that I have an affair, I'm afraid that you'll hate me for it. Sorry again." Otousan apologized sadly, I took a quick glance at okaasan, seeing her face was masked with coldness, I was afraid she'll be angry for what otousan just said clearly.
"Lord Inutaisho, please give me a reason why you should mate with a human?" okaasan asked gravely, eyeing otousan's expression became troubled. 'I bet he doesn't have a reason, why would he mate with a lowly human? I'm ashamed of my father. Disgusting. How can he mate with a human bitch?' I thought disgusted. I saw my okaasan glared at me sternly, indicating that she have read my thoughts again. 'Sesshoumaru! I thought I told you not to talk like that to humans?' okaasan suddenly butted on my mind, 'Gomen ne okaasan, I just can't help thinking like that to humans.' I countered, 'Sesshoumaru, what will you feel if you're the human?' okaasan asked seriously, 'Hurt by the words?' I answered, 'Yes Sesshoumaru, but not only did you feel hurt by words but also feel weak against those who said those words, we youkais don't have the right to judge humans. Maybe because we haven't met even one human who have the guts to disobey us or challenge us, but the reason is, we haven't seen the real part of a human. Not all humans are weak; they have the right to live, not to be ashamed by themselves, but to live strong. You'll understand me when you're old enough. Now let's see what your otousan have to say.' She smiled at me and kicked me under the table; I smiled back and winked.
"I wanted to have another son, a hanyou, so I searched for a human to be my second mate. So that when I die, they would take my two fangs. One fang would be for Sesshoumaru and the other would be for Inuyasha, I named the hanyou Inuyasha. That's my reason." Otousan said solemnly.
"I see, but youkais are not allowed to have two mates at the same time." Okaasan replied coldly, "What will you do? What about them?" she asked calmly. All emotions masked, she eyed otousan gravely, angry that he betrayed her, betrayed her trust and love.
"I was thinking of letting her stay with Inuyasha, besides, his my son and she is my second mate." He stated calmly, eyeing okaasan's reaction, he stiffened when he received a glare from okaasan.
"You have betrayed my trust and love, I accept the reason you gave me, now you want me to accept them in this place! How could you do this to me and Sesshoumaru, we trusted you when you said that we are the only ones who will be in this family, now you will include a human and a hanyou?! What's gotten into you?!" okaasan yelled angrily, her eyes momentarily flickered crimson, I was afraid she would hurt us when she loses control of herself. I quickly hugged her to keep her calm, it always work when they have a fight.
"Okaasan, calm down, calm down, please… okaasan don't lose control, please!" I begged her, tears forming in my eyes, I don't want her to hurt otousan even if he had betrayed us, and I don't want them to separate. To my relief, she began to calm down, eyes turning back to those beautiful gold amber eyes.
"Sesshoumaru, I will not lose control in front of you, never. Please come with me." Okaasan smiled slightly, commanding me to come with her. I nodded and muttered a goodbye to otousan; I reached out for okaasan's hand and she happily accept. We walk silently in the deserted hall, not saying anything; she then stopped in front of a grand door.
"Sesshoumaru, let's get inside my room and talk for a while." Okaasan said with a smile, I nodded silently and walk in. I was stunned at the sight; it's magnificent! All the furniture, which is displayed, are arranged properly, sky-blue colored curtains that fits the room perfectly, the walls are painted in sea-blue color, king-size bed. Everything is stunningly perfect. I've only seen this the first time, because okaasan always slept with otousan, that's why I never seen this place before.
"Okaasan, why haven't I seen this room before? Even if you always slept with otousan I should have heard about this place before." I asked curiously, not knowing why I had never seen this room or heard of it, I didn't even know there's a room this beautiful in here. All I know, all the guest that are welcome to live here are placed in the west wing with the royals, why is it that okaasan's room is located in the south wing?
"You want to know how you didn't know? Almost all of the youkai living here doesn't know that I have a room in here, only your otousan and me knows; now you too already know. I placed a barrier spell in here that only the ones that I approved to enter can go through the barrier spell. When you grow up, place the one you cared for in this place. When you wish to transfer this room in the west wing, just used the magic word." She gave me a wink, "Say her name and hold her hand, close your eyes and whisper the command, like 'move this place to the west wing beside my room' or something, your decision whether you want to move it or not. It will obey you; I have the barrier transferred to your command right now." She said calmly. Eyeing my reaction, she holds my hand and gently kissed it.
"Arigatou okaasan. Can I sleep in here for a while?" I asked followed by a tired yawn, she nodded and assist me to her bed; I crawled on her soft bed and again yawned tiredly. She laughed silently and gently tucked me in; she softly kissed my forehead as I drift into the dreamland. Her expressions soften and began to walk through the barrier, she eyed me one last look and began to chant the spell to pass through.
~~~6 days later~~~
"Sesshoumaru-sama! Sesshoumaru-sama!" a servant called suddenly, running through the halls and rooms, he finally found me in my study. Panting heavily he began to calm himself, until the only thing visible in him was his terrified look on his face.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, please hurry and follow me, you mother injured herself and asking for your presence! Hurry before it's too late!" he said quickly, bowing his head, he hurriedly scramble to his feet and began to lead the way by running.
"What are you talking about?!" I asked while running worriedly, 'how can okaasan injure herself? Surely someone did it; okaasan can't do that! She just can't!' I almost cried at the thought of her injuring herself, she just can't, she promised not to leave me.
"I was walking around the hall seeing if anything unusual happens. Suddenly, I heard a loud scream mixed with a scent of blood. I quickly followed the scent and I ended up in front of the guest room, I opened the door and saw your mother lying on the floor, a dragger in her hand and her chest is bleeding. She ordered me to find you and bring you there." He said worriedly, he suddenly stopped in front of the guest room and abruptly opened the door.
I gasped at the sight; okaasan is lying on the ground surrounded by a pool of blood coming from her wound. I suddenly kneeled in front of her and began crying. Tears fell from my eyes and it started mixing with her blood.
"Okaasan! Who did this unforgivable thing?! What happen?! Okaasan speak to me! Please! Don't leave me!" I sobbed uncontrollably, clutching her kimono tightly, I sobbed in her chest. I tried to hold back my tears, I tried to look at her beautiful face ones more, but the tears didn't listen to me, blinding my eyes to see her face. I was shocked when I heard her heart beat ones, then twice but the beatings are shallow, as if she was insisting herself to breath even if she couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes fluttered open, eyeing me as I cry, she lifted her weak hand and placed it on my shoulder to stop me from shivering from fright. I raised my head to look at her, happy that she is indeed alive.
"Okaasan! You're alive! Who did this?! Onegai, don't leave me, I don't know what to do without you!" I cried, I was relieved to see her face smiled a bit, but it saddened when I said the word 'don't leave me'.
"Se-Sesshoumaru, I did this myself, because I don't want to see your otousan with that human, they are a happy family, complete and full of love, while we are lacking a father, incomplete and sorrow. Sesshoumaru, promise me that you will love, find the one you will love forever, human or youkai, as long as your heart tells you whom to love. Love your father even if had betrayed us, don't hate all humans. Promise me." She asked hopefully, she eyed me as I made my decision. She coughed uncontrollably spilling some blood from her mouth; I saw this and began to pat her chest gently. She focused her eyes on me as if expecting me to promise her. I mentally sighed as I prepare to answer her.
"I promise okaasan, but please don't leave me, you know that you are the only one I can depend on right now. And you promised me that you will not leave me." I said sadly, blinking back my tears, I stared at her as she swallowed the lump in her throat and think of something to answer.
"Sesshoumaru, I promised you that I would not leave you, even if I die, I will always be at your side watching you. So don't be sad, after all, I didn't broke my promise." She smiled but it was replaced by a frown, she was battling with her body in order to stay alive, she still has something to say before she dies. Her breath became harsher; her chest was rising and falling slightly.
"Okaasan! Okaasan! Daijobu desu ka?" I asked worriedly, afraid that she might leave to early, 'Why does our life became like this?! We were leaving peacefully until that human and her son came to our home.' I thought angrily, but remember what I just promised okaasan, I shouldn't hate her. Even if I don't want to, I promised okaasan.
"Sesshoumaru, daijobu janai. I'll tell you how to activate the barrier on my room; you should chant the spell I placed in it. Love is the keyword. Now I can peacefully die." She laughed sarcastically, her breathing became shorter, her hand on my shoulder losing strength. "Sesshoumaru, Sayo…" she used her last breath to say the last word she wished she didn't have to say, "…nara."
"No… this can't be happening…" I shook my head in fear, "…no…NO! Okaasan!" I cried, launching myself on her lifeless body, I buried my head on her neck and began to cry uncontrollably, the servant beside me also cried but silently. He placed a hand on my shoulders to calm me down, lifting me up; he called for other servants to help him carry okaasan. When the others arrived, they stared in shock, not daring to believe that their beloved Lady was dead. They kneeled down in respect for their Lady, silently walking and gently lifting okaasan's body, all of them muttered a sorry for me.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, where will we bury your mother's body?" the servant asked silently, bowing his head, he patiently waited for my answer.
"In the garden, beside the river." I said sadly, I wanted her to be buried beside the river because it was the place where the memories of okaasan lives, that river was connected to the river where we had our talk before otousan called us for the talk. Memories that is still fresh in my mind. "Does my otousan know this?" I asked the servant, he was startled at my sudden question. He calmed himself and answered.
"I already sent a servant to tell him, Sesshoumaru-sama." The servant answered with a bow, I nodded and calmly walk out of the room, when I was out of the room, I ran, tears falling down from my eyes, my eyes where blurred by the tears that are uncontrollably falling down. I saw some servants watch me ran to okaasan's room and sobbed, they shook their heads. 'Poor child, why did Lady Kosan killed herself? At least now, she will be in peace.' They thought sadly.
From this day, I will hide my emotions; I'll do what I promised okaasan. But I don't think I can do this forever.
~~~~~* END OF FLASHBACK *~~~~~
Kagome was watching Sesshoumaru come back to the real world, she felt sorry for him. She had told Rin to play with Jaken before she read his whole mind, Jaken refused to play with Rin until he saw Kagome gave him a I'll-kill-you-if-you-don't-play-with-Rin glare, he quickly grab Rin and hurried to play with her.
'So that's why he became a cold-hearted youkai, but he doesn't seem too cold to Rin and me, maybe because of the promise he made before his okaasan died. I should comfort him now.' Kagome thought suddenly. She silently walked behind the Lord youkai and gave him a comforting hug, which startled the Lord. She mentally congratulates herself as she buried her head sideways on his fluffy tail, snuggling her cheeks against the soft, fluffy tail.
Sesshoumaru felt Kagome's head buried itself on his tail, to his surprise, he unconsciously leaned his tail closer. Kagome was surprised at his reaction and began to stroke his tail softly; she was again surprised when he began to purr. 'He's purring? How cute!'
"You're purring, Sesshoumaru." Kagome giggled, she ran her fingertips on the soft tail and began to pet it, she eyed the Lord as he fight the urge to purr again at the soft touch.
"I, Sesshoumaru don't purr; it's simply a growl not purr." Sesshoumaru tried to defend himself by denying the truth. Kagome can't help herself from the sudden burst of laughter came from her lips, trying to stop herself, she grab his fluffy tail and buried her head to quiet her laugh. Sesshoumaru stiffened at the sudden movement but calmed down when he saw the miko tried to silence her mouth.
"Hey, I didn't know dogs could purr! Cats do! As far as I know, never did I hear a dog purr in my life! Oh no! Maybe you're not an inu-youkai! Maybe you're a…" she slowly retreat her arms from him and began to back away, she began to run away in high-speed, when she was sure that she was 50 feet away from him, she eyed the Lord youkai's face as he seems to be confused at her movements. She shouted…
"Maybe you're a neko-youkai! I can't believe it! Lord Sesshoumaru, Lord of the Western Lands is a neko-youkai! They mistaken you as an inu-youkai!" after that speech, she began to ran towards the castle, she turned her head back to see what Sesshoumaru will do, only to find him slightly amused at the speech. 'Shit! That's supposed to piss him! Not to amuse him!' she thought frantically; she began to ran faster.
'So, this human tried to piss me off eh? Too bad, it pissed me a little bit but the amusement is the biggest part of it.' Sesshoumaru thought silently as he watches the miko ran, he was surprised that she was able to ran this fast as if her ankle doesn't hurts. 'Baka! Does she think she can ran away from me?' he smirked at his thought, 'I had to admit that she is a fast runner, she can be faster when she become a youkai, but a ningen can not be a youkai.'
He flew calmly and in a blink, he was in front of Kagome. Unfortunately for Kagome, she was running in high-speed that she failed to stop when she saw Sesshoumaru landed a foot away from her. She suddenly crashes into him, herself falling backwards at the sudden bump, she was hoping that she wouldn't fall and suddenly grab a hold on his kimono to steady herself. But instead of steadying herself, she accidentally pulled down Sesshoumaru with her. She was waiting for her head to hit the ground, but instead of hard, her head landed on a soft thing. 'His tail, so soft!' She opened her eyes to find beautiful gold amber eyes staring down at her.
"I take it that your ankle doesn't hurt anymore, you can run now." He asked softly, staring at those beautiful cerulean eyes, 'Why haven't I notice her eyes before? It's beautiful… wait what am I thinking!' he mentally kick himself, he continued to stare at her eyes as she also, was doing the same.
"H-hai, it doesn't hurt now." Was all she could say for now, she was feeling so comfortable in this position, Sesshoumaru on top of her, 'Wait what am I thinking?! Surely I feel embarrassed right? What would he say?! "Why don't you look where you're going bitch" or "I'll kill you for doing this even accidentally!" oh brother.' She thought silently. She was thinking of starting a conversation to lessen her embarrassment, she blushed at the thought of kissing him. 'What's wrong with me?! Why am I thinking of something like that?!' she scolded herself mentally.
"G-gomen ne Sesshoumaru-sama, I didn't mean to let you fall, gomen ne." Kagome apologized sheepishly, still looking at the Lord. This time, the look they shared was even more intense; they lose themselves in to the eyes of each other. Sesshoumaru can't describe the feeling that overwhelmed inside him that he unconsciously leaned closer, their breaths caressing each other's lips, finally…
Their lips found each other as they close their eyes, enjoying the feeling of their lip touched. To her surprise, she was returning the kiss slowly, her lips parted slightly and he slowly sucked her bottom lip, he moved up a bit and slowly entered his tongue in her slightly parted lips. His tongue slowly explored her mouth, running his tongue over her teeth, 'I shouldn't be doing this, how can I kiss a human?' he thought silently. He broke the kiss and opened his eyes to see the girl he just kissed, Kagome opened her eyes and her cheeks became red, embarrassed at the sudden 'event', she mentally scolded herself, 'Kagome! What are you doing kissing him! You shouldn't be kissing back! …But it felt so right… argg! I'm so confused!'
Sesshoumaru was shocked when he realized what he was doing just now, how could he kiss a human! 'It felt so right… No! How can I kiss a human! I'm supposed to torture humans not love them.' *But you promised your okaasan that you would not hate all humans, remember?* 'but I didn't promise to kiss a human!' *Hey! You did it yourself!* 'I didn't know what I was thinking that time!' *that's your problem. I'm out on that issue. Bye!* 'Hey! Don't go!' but the voice was out of his head before he can say anything to it again. He muttered an apology to Kagome and got up, 'this time surely I'm not dreaming! I really heard him apologized to me!' Kagome thought amazed that the arrogant Lord had apologized. He reaches out a hand and Kagome place hers over his, he helped her stand and abruptly remove his hand away from hers. They notice Rin's presence nearing them, Sesshoumaru eyed the miko once more, Kagome turned to look at the Lord and was surprised when their eyes met each other again.
"Rin and Jaken will be in here any seconds, I will be watching her play with you, miko." Sesshoumaru stated coldly, turning towards the direction where he felt Rin's presence. They didn't wait long, Rin appeared with Jaken, Rin had a handful of flowers and Jaken was running after her wearing a feminine type kimono with sakura decorated all over it.
"Sesshoumaru-sama! Kagome-neechan!" Rin called as she ran towards the two elders, she wrapped her arms around Sesshoumaru's leg, and Sesshoumaru just ruffled her hair. She then unwrapped her arms and ran towards the miko, Kagome kneeled down to give her a hug.
"Sesshoumaru-sama! Please help this lowly servant! I'm being tortured by a little human girl!" Jaken blurted out, his knees gave up and he fall in front of the Lord, he struggled to get up but failed when his knees gave up again from loss of strength because of running after the energetic girl.
"And what kind of torture does Rin does to you?" Sesshoumaru asked coldly, eyeing his servant struggled to stand up. He pulled Jaken up to sit in a small boulder to lessen his exhaustion, Jaken calmed down and look up to see his master's face while he speaks.
"She always dressed me up as a girl, put flowers all over my body, play with my ears, push me on a muddy place and let me fall down to it. Master its torture!" Jaken cried tiredly.
"Jaken, you called that torture?" Sesshoumaru again asked coldly, 'I can't believe he called that torture, it's just for fun.' Sesshoumaru thought unbelievingly.
"H-hai, Sesshoumaru-sama." Jaken stuttered, he noticed the tone of his master's reply whenever he explained, coldly, unemotionally.
Kagome, who was listening at the two laughed aloud. All eyes turned into her, eyeing her as she tried to calm down herself. 'He called that torture?! What a moron! Math was torture to him when he got to study it!' Kagome thought silently, she calmed herself and began to walk towards Jaken. Jaken watch her as she neared him, 'What will this wench do?' he thought quietly, watching her every move. She finally stopped walking and stared down at him, her eyes gleamed evilly.
"Jaken, that's just for fun! Don't you know what's the meaning of fun? Now, what do you call this?" she asked as she poked his side, he jerked slightly and glared at the miko. Kagome glared back and continued to poke him, Jaken was now on the ground laughing hysterically, he tried to cover his side but failed when Kagome poked him harder.
"Hey *hahaha* miko *hahaha* stop it! *hahaha* it tickles! *hahaha*" he manage to blurt out between laughs, he continues to struggle and roll over the meadow, he continued on rolling until his head bumped into a large rock. Kagome and Rin burst in laughter as the Lord only smirked at his servant. Jaken clutched his head and cried for his master's help, seeing that his master didn't mind him; he began to walk calmly towards the castle.
"Sorry Jaken, I'll fix your head later!" Kagome apologized followed by laughs, Jaken just muttered some curses and walk hurriedly towards the castle.
"Kagome-neechan! Let's play hide and seek! I'll be the one to hide!" Rin squealed as she ran and try finding a place to hide.
"Okay Rin! At the count of ten!" Kagome shouted back, she excused herself from the Lord and ran towards the nearest tree and started counting.
"That's one strange human." Was all Sesshoumaru can say as he watch them play.
