"Lady Keade?" a small boy, no older then 11, called into a dark hut.
"Hello, Kohako! What is they matter?" Keade asked. Keade stepped into the light, dressed in normal miko clothing.
Her two brown eyes looked him up and down, as he stood at the entrance ragged and dirty. She realized that he must have come from his practice, though his heavy panting was a wonder to her.
"Your elder sister, Lady Kikyo, is here to see you. She's waiting at the gate, with a troop of men, along with her Lord Arata!" he said urgently.
"What does that woman want know?" Keade mumbled to her self, as she placed a clay vial on a near bye desk, and followed the bow to the main gate.
"Kikyo. This is an unexpected surprise," Keade said forcing a fake smile, at her sister. A frown formed at Kikyo's face, as she looked at her.
"So I take it Mama, and Papa have not bothered to tell you yet, sister."
"Tell me what, Kikyo?"
"Huang has died."
"Yes. I have reached that news, and have grieved for him. But I have other things to do then, mope around."
"I did not finish."
"Then finish."
"As you know, Huang was one of their main supplies of money. As a way to get money, they have sold away Kagome." Keade's eyes widened in surprise.
"What?" she asked in disbelief.
Kagome? Little Kagome sold like a slave for money? That couldn't be true!
"To who?" Kagome asked. Kikyo looked down at her with a bored face. "To a youkai lord." Keade's eyes widened. "To breed in fact. And you know the complexities of when a youkai and miko mate." Keade's eyes widened.
"We must save Lady Kagome!" a female voice said from the crowd. Keade smiled slightly at the few of Kohako's older sister, Sango came into the clearing where she stood. "That so called 'pup' could be dangerous. What youkai lord was it?" her voice rang out clear through out the hushed place. Lord Arata looked her, interested.
"Who are you, young lady?" he said bowing his head, in respect.
"I am Sango. Daughter of the Lord, here of this village. I am in charge, as my Father is away at the moment."
"Silence, girl! You do not know if what you speak of!" snapped Kikyo, looking down at the girl with disgust. Arata glared at Kikyo, putting her in her place.
"Silence Kikyo. You may have started this campaign, but I am still Lord, and Lord over you. Silence your mouth this instant!" Kikyo's lips pursed together, forming a white line, in anger, her eyes blazing at him. He rolled his eyes at her, her glare having no effect.
"Have you heard of Lord Sesshoumaru?" Arata asked Sango. Instantly the villagers went into crazed whispers.
"We have. He's the lord of the Western lands. The said to be the most powerful youkai of all. To challenge him is asking for your death." Sango looked up at the Lord on his white horse.
"So you are saying that this cause is for nothing?" Arata asked, leaning even further toward her, as he gently told his horse to walk foreword to her.
"No. But it will be hard. Possibly we can bye her off her, but I know that we can not kill him, sire. Even if we could, all this servants, and youkai loyal to him, including the other three lords, will hunt us down. We can not kill all of them, my Lord." Arata nodded, looking at Keade, then back at her.
"Lady Keade, and Lady Sango. I ask thee to join our campaign, and help us rescue the poor Lady Kagome, from a fate worse then death. Do you accept."
"Yes, my Lord!" their voices said together, echoing slightly in the village. Arata smiled his white teeth showing.
"Very well then! Pack your bags, and your horses. We will leave in two hours time. In the mean while, do you have a place to rest for us?" once again the village returned to his hustle and bustle, while people helped the Lord and Lady quests.
Kagome woke up in her bedroom. A letter propped up on the table, beside her bed. She reached for it and read it.
My dear Kagome, I'm glad that you have chosen to stay. A disturbance in my land has happened, so my apologies but our lessons won't happen till after dinner. Kenji tells me that you have made friends with his mate, Aya. Why don't you spend some time with her in my absence. Though you other classes will be held. Your Lord and Fiancée, Sesshoumaru.
Kagome smiled at the note. A servant knocked on the door then walked in. "Ready, Lady Kagome?"
"Yes."
Katsuhiko waited patiently for Kagome to meet him in Sesshoumaru's study.
"Good morning, Katsuhiko-chan!" Kagome said walked into the room smiling at him. Katsuhiko looked up from the window and smiled back at her.
"Good morning, Kagome-chan. You seem happy this morning." She smiled even more brightly at him.
"I had a pleasant evening with Sesshoumaru, and had wonderful dream, and woke up fully rested."
"So you are happy here?" Katsuhiko asked, laughter in his voice. "And what was this 'wonderful dream' about, that made you so chipper?"
"Yes! The castle is beautiful, and the grounds are lovely. I'm making friends! And the dream!" she blushed slightly then looked at her hands. She looked up at his brightly smiling face, and smiled softly. "Was hopeful my future," she whispered.
Katsuhiko laughed loudly, sitting in the chair at the table. "Let me guess!" he cried still laughing, as Kagome took the seat facing him. "Lots of children...Sesshoumaru one and true love...Happy life... Peaceful lands..." He trailed off, waving his hand slightly in the air. "Am I right about this?" he laughed at her red face, and innocent expression. "Women!" he said softly laughing, though inside, he felt his heart shatter slightly, as he realized that she was happy with Sesshoumaru.
What do you expect, you damned fool? She's engaged to him!
Kagome smiled at him softly as he started opening up scrolls. "Katsuhiko- chan?"
"Hn?" He was flipping through pages looking for proper ones for them to work with, as the lesson set into place.
"Why aren't you mated?" Katsuhiko snorted, as if the idea was strange one.
"Haven't found a gal my type." Katsuhiko raised an eyebrow as she grinned at him slightly.
"Meaning that your don't even know what your 'type' is." Katsuhiko laughed.
"Yes. You know... You're too smart for your own good." Katsuhiko laughed slightly. "All right. Let's get down to the lessons shall we? Before Sesshoumaru learns that we where slacking off all day!"
Classes after that went smoothly, Huang showed her more techniques in swordplay, and Kenji talked more about Sesshoumaru's inu family.
It was about 9 o'clock when Kagome and Aya where sitting in her room talking about...men...surprisingly.
"Sesshoumaru is a fine catch!" Aya said as they both laid on the bed flipping through some papers of London that Sesshoumaru had given her the night before. Mostly sketches done their way of the buildings, landscapes, and other things. Under each picture Sesshoumaru had written a little paragraph about the picture, and what importance it had, and such.
"Hai, he is. But he's a little cold."
"He'll warm up to you. Just give him a chance. I'm sure that he's all ready given you some of his warm side?" Aya asked. Kagome blushed slightly, as her first lesson with him ran through her mind...and his kisses, which could kill a woman with the fiery passion in them.
"Hai, he has. But, what about Kenji? Kenji said for about a month every one thought that you where going to mate Sesshoumaru. Why choose Kenji and not Sesshoumaru?"
Aya smiled at the memory. "Sesshoumaru and I, we had a short fling. It got nothing past the first kiss. We both knew it wasn't for us. As the month ended, Kenji came looking for work. With his humor, and good looks, I was easily swooned. The thing is, it didn't take Sesshoumaru long to notice that I was swooning for another man. So he ended it, on friendly terms, saying it was best for us. I agreed. And to this day, we are still friends."
"That sweet!" Kagome said smiling at her. Aya smiled brightly at her as well. But their joyous moment soon ended when a frantic knock began knocking on the door.
Kagome got up and hurried to the door, after quickly putting on a robe to hide her sleeping garments, as did Aya. Opening the door, a frantic Jaken stood looking up at her.
"Kagome!" Jaken sputtered out. "Lord Sesshoumaru! He's been hurt, and we can't move him from where he is! We need your help! I fear my lords life!"
"Oh gods!" Kagome whispered in shock. Aya grabbed her hand.
"Come on, Kagome! We have to go!" Aya picked up Jaken, much to his displeasure, and grabbed her hand, running toward the stables.
"Where are we going Aya?" Kagome said jumpy how it was so dark outside, soon Kenji, Huang, and Katsuhiko joined up next to him.
"You heard the news?" Huang asked. Aya nodded as they stopped in the stables. "Kagome get on Ah-Un." Huang said hurried getting a weird sort of rains, and going into a completely dark stable. She screamed as she saw what came out of it.
Ah-Un, was a two-headed dragon! Her knees went weak, and all most fell, but Katsuhiko caught her. "You get nervous around dragon's yet not youkai? You are a strange woman!" Aya went up to her, taking her hands.
"Kagome. Do you want so save Sesshoumaru?"
"Hai," Kagome whispered.
"Then get on Ah-Un with Jaken. I promise you, Ah-Un in perfectly safe. He's a gentle creature though he may not look like it." Kagome nodded, letting Kenji help her up. "We'll follow you on the ground okay?" Aya said. "It's just like riding a horse, though this one's only faster and fly's." Kagome nodded nervously.
"Come on, Ah-Un." Jaken said, Ah-Un started moving, first slowly then faster. It flew up into the sky, and Kagome gasped at how smooth it was. It was an amazing feeling. Under any other reason, Kagome would have loved it, but her mind was two busy on Sesshoumaru.
"What is he hurt with?" Kagome asked Jaken. Jaken looked at her from where he was sitting.
"He has a little brother half breed, named InuYasha. A few years back they battled for the sword made from the very fang of their father, well one the most powerful sword attacks from the sword, his the "wind scar". InuYasha used it against Sesshoumaru, when he was blinded knowing where he was the demon aura. Sesshoumaru was hit by it, yet not fully, he disappeared through all the lights, and I found him. But he's bleeding terribly, and won't move. Evan for a demon, loosing too much blood is a bad sign."
"Repairing wounds, is simple. Though the way you described it, it may take an hour." Jaken looked at her solemnly.
"I'm not sure that he has an hour." Kagome looked down at him for a minute, many emotions playing through her eyes. "Kagome. You know that him dyeing, is your ticket out this place." Kagome nodded, not sure where he was going with this. "But I ask you, please, save my master."
"I'll try Jaken. I really will."
"He's over here!" Jaken called and Kagome went after him. Huang though stopped all of them from going though.
"Let Kagome handle this." he said.
"But..." Huang looked at Katsuhiko sharply.
"Kagome can handle this."
Kagome walked up to Sesshoumaru, kneeling beside him. "Ka-go-me!" he panted at seeing her. "No! Get-away!" he said, his eyes widening slightly.
"No, Sesshoumaru." Kagome said softly, opening up his haori, and taking away his shattered armor. Kagome's chest tightened at the horror she saw. He was covered in blood, his haori ripped in many places, sticking to his chest with all the blood. His shattered armor went in many places, a few silvers of the hard metal, had gone into his wounds.
Sesshoumaru stared up at her, his eyes still bleeding red. He could heal on his own. His stupid manservant, Jaken, had taken this all out of proportion.
Yes, it hurt as hell to breathe, but Kagome looked like he was going to die. Had this been another moment, he could have laughed!
"I'm sorry." she looked up at his face once more.
"For-what?" Kagome's hands reached for one the shattered armor pieces and pulled it out carefully. Sesshoumaru snarled at her, and pain shot through his body. Kagome flinched. Sesshoumaru closed his eyes, knowing that Kagome thought he was mad at her. "Go on." he whispered smoothly. Like this wasn't happening. He placed a hand on Kagome's knee, as she continued, not making a sound or flinch. Kagome worked carefully and as quickly as possible.
It was about ten minutes later, when Kagome stopped and Sesshoumaru opened his eyes. Her eyes scanned his chest, making sure their where no more cuts. She used a clean piece of his shredded haori, to dab at some of the cuts, trying to see through all the blood.
Once she found that he was free from the armor, she dropped his once fine haori turned rag, and placed both of her hands on his chest. Slowly, her hands turned blue as her miko powers slowly slipped from her fingers around his chest and body, healing the cuts, and renewing blood.
Sesshoumaru knew that she was straining her self to hurry. Jaken had most likely told her that he was dying. Though it still took about 15 minutes. After it was done, he sat up, and looked at her. Kagome looked down at her lap softly, where her two hands, twisted softly. "Kagome," Sesshoumaru said, getting her attention, as she looked up at him. "Come closer." Kagome softly scooted forward on her knee's, coming up right beside him. She gasped when Sesshoumaru grabbed her, and placed her on his lap.
"Sesshou..." she said so quietly, that Sesshoumaru all most didn't cached it. Kagome was lost his golden eyes, and was only half-aware, of Sesshoumaru's arms tight around her waist, while her hands rested on his chest. Kagome closed her eyes for a second, surprising her self at how much she wanted to kiss him. She was scared that he would die coming to him, and hurried with her work, trying to make it as painless as possible.
She opened them again, seeing his golden orbs staring at her still. Kagome slowly leaned forward, closing her eyes, till her lips met his, kissing him timidly, shivering slightly when he kissed back. Her hands slid around his waist softly touching his back, has one of his hands slid from her waist, to her hip, softly running his hand up and down on her hip, caressing her.
Sesshoumaru drew back some, pleased to hear her whimper his name as he stopped the kiss. He nuzzled her neck, revealing in the feeling as Kagome wrapped her arms around his shoulders, playing softly with small hairs and the nip of his neck.
He licked her neck softly, smirking when Kagome uttered as small gasp and whimper, as she leaned further against him, tightening her arms slightly. Her small frame was crushed against his larger one, as he held her tight. He moved his head up, placed his cheek against her for a moment, letting his heated breath slid over her ear. She shivered again him. "Kagome," he whispered in her ear. Kagome nodded slightly showing that she was listening. "Now will you let me court you properly?" he teased maddening in her ear. Kagome choked on her tears slightly, as she leaned back to look at him. She smiled brightly at him, though tears still rolled down her cheeks.
"Hai, Sesshoumaru." Sesshoumaru smirked at her, and kissed her again, pulling her closer then before, making her moan in his mouth, as his tongue entered her mouth, fighting for dominance, and winning. He smelt her arousal, and it smelt heavenly to his youkai senses. Though he knew it had to stop, before it got to far.
After a few minutes, of endless kissing, they stopped both breathing hard, Kagome panting slightly. "We must go." Kagome nodded getting off him. He looked down at his forgotten haori, and armor, shaking his head slightly, before wrapping an arm around her waist, walking toward the others, though first making sure the smell of her arousal was completely gone, as his.
The group talked a little, soon every one found themselves glaring at Jaken, as hid behind Ah-Un. Before long, Sesshoumaru and Kagome rode Ah-Un, though at a slow pace, while the others ran back to the castle. Kagome sat before him, rains forgotten, as the two-headed dragon knew where they where going. Kagome leaned backed against Sesshoumaru's chest, as his arms where wrapped around her, as his tail. They where flying so slowly, that a human could have gotten to his castle before they did. Even if they where walking.
"Why did you come so quickly to save me?" Sesshoumaru asked, a few minutes after they had started, when the four others where far gone.
"I didn't want you to die," Kagome admitted. She smiled up at him. "I wanted you to keep your end of the deal, making me like it here." Kagome relished in the deep rumble from his chest as he chuckled ever so softly.
She snuggled further into his warm body, as she gently petted his tail. Sesshoumaru softly kissed the top of her head, closing his eyes, letting Kagome pet his tail, which was one of his weak spots.
Kagome looked up at him, placing a hand behind his head, and pulling him down to kiss him. Sesshoumaru kissed back immediately, feeling Kagome sink against him, her eyes closed along with his own. Kagome felt her toes curl slightly as she lost her self in the kiss, her whole world spinning. "Mmm! Sesshoumaru!" she managed to get out in-between kisses.
"Yes?" he breathed out, his voice breathy; his warm breath sliding against her lips, as he lightly kissed her.
"Forget about the list." He pretended to pout.
"But I was going to have fun proving all the rumors wrong." Kagome let him kiss her again.
"Prove them wrong in your own time." Sesshoumaru smirked against her lips.
"And what am I do in-between then?" he asked, not letting her kiss him, smirking as she got frustrated, she opened her eyes to glare at him.
"Kiss me, damn it!" she pulled him down again bringing their lips together again. Sesshoumaru chuckled but kissed her, bringing her into his lap, deepening the kiss.

"Hello, Kohako! What is they matter?" Keade asked. Keade stepped into the light, dressed in normal miko clothing.
Her two brown eyes looked him up and down, as he stood at the entrance ragged and dirty. She realized that he must have come from his practice, though his heavy panting was a wonder to her.

She was scared that he would die coming to him, and hurried with her work, trying to make it as painless as possible.
She opened them again, seeing his golden orbs staring at her still. Kagome slowly leaned forward, closing her eyes, till her lips met his, kissing him timidly, shivering slightly when he kissed back. Her hands slid around his waist softly touching his back, has one of his hands slid from her waist, to her hip, softly running his hand up and down on her hip, caressing her.
Sesshoumaru drew back some, pleased to hear her whimper his name as he stopped the kiss. He nuzzled her neck, revealing in the feeling as Kagome wrapped her arms around his shoulders, playing softly with small hairs and the nip of his neck.
He licked her neck softly, smirking when Kagome uttered as small gasp and whimper, as she leaned further against him, tightening her arms slightly. Her small frame was crushed against his larger one, as he held her tight. He moved his head up, placed his cheek against her for a moment, letting his heated breath slid over her ear. She shivered again him. "Kagome," he whispered in her ear. Kagome nodded slightly showing that she was listening. "Now will you let me court you properly?" he teased maddening in her ear. Kagome choked on her tears slightly, as she leaned back to look at him. She smiled brightly at him, though tears still rolled down her cheeks.
"Hai, Sesshoumaru." Sesshoumaru smirked at her, and kissed her again, pulling her closer then before, making her moan in his mouth, as his tongue entered her mouth, fighting for dominance, and winning. He smelt her arousal, and it smelt heavenly to his youkai senses. Though he knew it had to stop, before it got to far.
After a few minutes, of endless kissing, they stopped both breathing hard, Kagome panting slightly. "We must go." Kagome nodded getting off him. He looked down at his forgotten haori, and armor, shaking his head slightly, before wrapping an arm around her waist, walking toward the others, though first making sure the smell of her arousal was completely gone, as his.
The group talked a little, soon every one found themselves glaring at Jaken, as hid behind Ah-Un. Before long, Sesshoumaru and Kagome rode Ah-Un, though at a slow pace, while the others ran back to the castle. Kagome sat before him, rains forgotten, as the two-headed dragon knew where they where going. Kagome leaned backed against Sesshoumaru's chest, as his arms where wrapped around her, as his tail. They where flying so slowly, that a human could have gotten to his castle before they did. Even if they where walking.
"Why did you come so quickly to save me?" Sesshoumaru asked, a few minutes after they had started, when the four others where far gone.
"I didn't want you to die," Kagome admitted. She smiled up at him. "I wanted you to keep your end of the deal, making me like it here." Kagome relished in the deep rumble from his chest as he chuckled ever so softly.
She snuggled further into his warm body, as she gently petted his tail. Sesshoumaru softly kissed the top of her head, closing his eyes, letting Kagome pet his tail, which was one of his weak spots.
Kagome looked up at him, placing a hand behind his head, and pulling him down to kiss him. Sesshoumaru kissed back immediately, feeling Kagome sink against him, her eyes closed along with his own. Kagome felt her toes curl slightly as she lost her self in the kiss, her whole world spinning. "Mmm! Sesshoumaru!" she managed to get out in-between kisses.
"Yes?" he breathed out, his voice breathy; his warm breath sliding against her lips, as he lightly kissed her.
"Forget about the list." He pretended to pout.
"But I was going to have fun proving all the rumors wrong." Kagome let him kiss her again.
"Prove them wrong in your own time." Sesshoumaru smirked against her lips.
"And what am I do in-between then?" he asked, not letting her kiss him, smirking as she got frustrated, she opened her eyes to glare at him.
"Kiss me, damn it!" she pulled him down again bringing their lips together again. Sesshoumaru chuckled but kissed her, bringing her into his lap, deepening the kiss.
