WD: Hello again! Yup, it's time again for another Chapter in The Other
Taiyoukai. Yay!
~*~Last time: Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku and Shippou all go look for Kagome. Rin, Sesshoumaru and Kagome arrive at Sesshoumaru's house and Kagome is completely lost.
Chapter 4: Kagome's First Day and Then Some
"What are you guys doing?" Inuyasha asked, having found Sango, Miroku and Shippou about 2 miles away from their original camp site. "I thought you guys had run off on me."
"No." Sango said, lying to the hanyou, in fact, if it hadn't started raining they would have been far away. But because Kirara is a cat, and cats hate getting wet, they were forced to stop. "We were just looking a hot spring."
"Oh." Inuyasha said. "And by the way, Kikyo is going to join us."
That got everyone's attention.
"What!?" Sango yelled, her views were the same as Kagome's on Kikyo, - she hated the dead miko!
"Although I doubt the girl is still alive." Kikyo said as she came out from the trees. Sango growled and jumped up, ready to rip the dead miko to pieces. Thankfully for Kikyo, Miroku stopped her.
"What the hell Inuyasha?!" Sango yelled in the hanyou's face.
"You heard me right Sango. Kikyo is going to join our hunt for Kagome." Inuyasha yelled back, protecting Kikyo. "If we're lucky, we can even find some of the shards. Kagome isn't the only one that can see them you know."
"Let me go monk!" Sango was in a rage, ready to beat the hanyou and miko into a bloody pulp. The only thing stopping her was Miroku and Shippou hanging onto her.
"I'm sorry Sango, I can't let you hurt Inuyasha." Miroku said, but even he was having trouble restraining Sango. She was a lot stronger than he had guessed! Inuyasha sensed the anger in Sango and changed the subject very quickly.
"Lets go."

After getting completely lost and ending up in the south wing, having to ask Rin to help her get unlost, Kagome finally found her room again, which was is in the north wing. Kagome flopped down on the futon that awaited her in her room.
'I really need a map of this place.' Kagome thought. Rin had shown her a couple short cuts, but it seemed that not even Rin knew the whole place. Kagome finally fell asleep after reading a book she had found in her room.
"Kagome-chan! Wake up Kagome-chan! Sesshoumaru-sama says for Rin to wake up Kagome-chan because breakfast is ready! Come on Kagome-chan! Get up Kagome-chan!" Kagome opened her eyes slowly and was met with the dark brown ones of Rin.
"Alright Rin." Kagome said sleepily. "I'm up." Kagome looked around for clothes but could find none, her bag still in the forest somewhere. "Umm...Rin-chan, what am I suppose to wear?"
"Kagome-chan is funny!" Rin chirped. The seven year old opened the closet and Kagome gasped. Kimonos of every color were folded neatly on shelves. Red, blue, green, pink, black, every color Kagome could name. She picked a navy blue kimono that had pale pink flowers dancing across from shoulder to hip, with a pale pink sash to go with it.
"Alright Rin, which way to the dining room?" Kagome asked. Rin started running down the halls with Kagome jogging behind her. Rin stopped when she ran into Sesshoumaru.
"Rin, didn't I tell you not to run in the halls?" The Taiyoukai looked at the girl wrapped around his leg.
"Umm...maybe?" She answered Sesshoumaru, giving him one of those I'm- not-sure-maybe-you-told-me-but–if-you-did-I-wasn't-listening-anyway looks.
"Don't run in the halls Rin. Go eat."
"Hai Sesshoumaru-sama!" As soon as Rin turned the corner she set off at a run, trampling Jaken in the process. Sesshoumaru shook his head and headed off to eat as well. Kagome followed in silence and found a seat next to Rin at the table. As soon at Kagome sat down Rin was off telling her all the things they could do.
"We can go to the garden and pick flowers and chase butterflies and play hide and seek and play with Jaken and..."
Kagome just nodded and ate her food, watching Rin take a breath of air and at the same time stuff food into her mouth, then starting to talk again.
"Chew with your mouth closed Rin." Sesshoumaru said, also watching the girl. Rin nodded.
"Can Sesshoumaru-sama play with Rin and Kagome-chan too?" She asked.
"Not today Rin, I have a lot of work to do, now go outside." Rin obeyed him and ran outside to pick flowers.
"Woman, this afternoon you will teach Rin." Sesshoumaru said, getting up and heading towards his office.
"My name is not woman, human, wench or otherwise. My name is Kagome. Ka-go-me." Kagome said.
"You are in my house and I will call you what I wish." Sesshoumaru said, his mask of indifference on his face.
*
'Rin is fast learner.' Kagome thought as Rin quickly solved 5+2.
"Kagome-chan, can we pick flowers now?" Rin asked.
"After a couple more math problems, Sesshoumaru wants you to learn how to do math, spell and write."
"Why doesn't Jaken teach Rin?"
"Because Jaken isn't smart enough." Rin and Kagome giggled and continued their lesson.
*
Kagome was wandering around when leaned against the wall. Suddenly the door opened and Kagome was on the floor.
'What the.....' Kagome slowly got up and looked around. Natural light streamed through the windows above, illuminating the room. All around her Kagome saw weapons of every kind. Katana, wakizashi, tanto, kama, bo, jo, keibo, jutte, ebo, tonfa, manji shi, nunti bo, eku, tekko, nunchaku, shurikens, yari, naginata and yumi covered the walls. What her grandfather wouldn't give to stand in this room. Kagome was about to touch one of the shurikens when she remembered what her grandfather taught her.
'Most shurikens had the tips coated in vemon.' Kagome then remembered what Sesshoumaru said. 'I like to keep my weapons sharp.' Kagome sighed and continued looking around. She found some stairs and followed them down to a huge room, more sunlight lit the room.
Suddenly a shuriken was flung at her and Kagome ducked just in time.
THUNK! The deadly weapon hit the wall behind Kagome and stuck there, waiting for someone to pull it out.
"You should look before you enter an unknown room. I guarantee you'll live longer." Someone said. Kagome looked across the huge room and saw Sesshoumaru standing there, another shuriken in hand. "Didn't my half-breed brother teach you anything about how to protect yourself?"
"N...Not really." Kagome stuttered, still shaking from a couple seconds ago. There was another noise and Kagome looked down at her feet, a bokken lay at her feet. "What...."
"Well pick it up. I've seen you with a bow." Sesshoumaru said, reminding Kagome of the time he had used a human arm to get Tetsusaiga and she had broken his armor with one of her arrows. "But how are you with a katana?"
"I've never used a katana before." Kagome confessed. She picked up the wooden weapon.
"How do you hold one?", he asked. Kagome felt stupid and held the sword out. She saw Sesshoumaru smirk and felt even stupider. The rest of the day was devoted to how to hold a katana and the proper stance while handling one. After she got the hang of holding a sword Sesshoumaru showed her a basic sword kata.
"Sesshoumaru?" Kagome asked.
"Hai?" He replied during a break, putting Kagome's wooden sword away.
"I...umm...I miss my friends, Shippou and Sango and Miroku. Do..do you think I could vist them?"
"As long as Inuyasha-"
"I never said I wanted to see Inuyasha." Kagome said. Sesshoumaru nodded. "And I need to go back hom-" She stopped as she remembered that Kikyo had her jewel shards and she couldn't get back home. Tears came to her eyes and she realized that she couldn't see her family again. Kagome cried on the first thing that she fell against, which was Sesshoumaru's tail. He was a bit surprised as he smelled the salt from her tears.
"What is the matter?" He asked, using the same tone of voice he used with Rin when she was upset.
"I can't go back home! I can't see my mom or brother or grandpa anymore!" Kagome sobbed, her tears making Sesshoumaru's tail very wet and uncomfortable. He looked down at her and moved her from his tail to his chest. Kagome didn't try to stop him and started crying into the Taiyoukai's kimono, hugging his tail like it was a stuffed animal.
*End Chapter*
WD: Awwww...Fluffy, your so sweet to poor Kagome-chan.
Sesshoumaru: feh..
WD: We all know he's just a big sweetie.
Sesshoumaru: *growls*
WD: By the way, all the funny names above...like yari, shuriken, ebo, wakizashi, and all those others, they are the real names for traditional Japanese or Okinawan weapons. If you want to know more about them....my stupid computer won't let me put the url but I'm sure Google will have info.
