Chapter Four: Awakened feelings

As Kina, Sesshomaru, and Jakken walked down a path, all was silent. Usually Kina would be talking to someone. It was only natural for someone as friendly as her, but for some reason she got the impression that Sesshomaru wouldn't want to so much as look at her while they were working together.
She didn't even think he really wanted to work with her at all.
Jakken looked back at the human trailing behind him and spoke in a wisper to Sesshomaru. "M'lord. I don't think we should be invoking the help of a human. Especially a woman."
Sesshomaru said nothing.
"M'lord? Are you listening to me? She will only cause trouble and get in the way."
"I allow you to follow me, Jakken. Do not complain about the woman."
Jakken caught himself and immediatly started his begging and pleading. Kina watched the small frog and got curious so she leaned down to look at it closer. "Uh, Sesshomaru? Why do you let something so ugly and pathetic follow you around... Wait, don't answer that, I know why. You have a soft spot."
Sesshomaru's eye twitched slightly, but he said nothing.
Kina laughed a little and walked around in front of him, causing him to stop. "I knew it. You do have a soft spot."
He looked down at the small woman. He looked into her eyes and he felt as if he was looking into her soul. He knew all about the story of good and evil and he knew exactly who she was. She was herself now, and he knew that. As much as he hated to admit it, when Sesshomaru saw her evil it scared him. She had no control over herself, she could have killed him without much trouble.
Kina looked around nervously. "Um... What are you staring at?"
When Sesshomaru realized he had been staring at her he quickly turned away and started walking past her. She grabbed his arm and pulled his lips to her's.
"Ah! M'lord!"
Sesshomaru pulled away and looked down at her, shocked. He could tell that he had made her uncomfortable when he pulled away so quickly because she was now looking down, kicking the dirt, and her hand had left his arm. He gently turned her face towards his and kissed her again, exploring her mouth with his tongue.
"M'lord! What are you thinking, Lord Sesshomaru?!"
At the sound of Jakken's voice Sesshomaru kicked his leg, sending Jakken flying through the air. He moved his body and pressed it against Kina's as he put his arm around her. Why is he kissing this girl? She is human... but she isn't... I don't know why but this woman seems to have some sort of hold over my emotions...
Kina pulled away and licked her lips and smiled. "Soft spot."
Sesshomaru let a faint smile creep across his face, but was quickly gone, unnoticed. He started walking again and when he was sure Kina and Jakken were following he spoke. "I assume that your name is Kina since I heard my half breed brother call you that."
"Oh yeah." She playfully hit her head. "I forgot to tell you my name."
"Yes, well I know it."
"Obvisouly, since you just told me you did."
He glanced back at her and smirked at her sarcasm. "Watch your toungue."
"That's really hard to do seeing as my tougue is in my mouth on the bottom of my face and my eyes are on the top of my face... I would really have to be able to stretch my eyes out of the socket to..."
"Enough." He sneered at her play on words and shook his head slightly. I don't care about this woman. She is not at all respectful... and she is human.
"I'm not human." It was almost as if she read his mind and this startled him.
"What did you say?"
"I said I'm not human. I figured that you didn't care for human's much since we've passed a couple of them and you didn't so much as wave."
"Why does that have anything to do with you being human?"
"I just thought that if you knew I wasn't human then you would be nicer to me."
All of a sudden Kina tripped over a root. However, she never made it to the ground because Sesshomaru was quickly at her side. He was kneeling next to her and looking into her eyes again.
This woman... so strange... I don't understand...
They were kissing again, more passionatly.
Jakken held back his protests as he turned away from the strange site.
