Last time:
"Let me go!" Sango yelled, kicking and screaming against her captor. "Where are you taking me?"
Sango continued to thrash widely against her captor, and as she did, she would be greeted with loud guttural noises.
"Silence wench!" yelled her captor. "You're hurting my ears!"
Sango didn't stop. "I'll yell if I want to!"
"I said Silence! God damn wench!" Her captor yelled, throwing Sango into the nearest wall. A sickeningly loud cracking sound was heard and Sango's cries filled the room.
Her captor smiled as he watched Sango curl into a ball. "When I say something wench, I mean it."
Now:
The bright blue moon shone high in the sky, illuminating the enormous castle beneath it. A large elegant Koi pond snaked its way up the sides of the stone sidewalk that lead up to the two large Oak doors on the front side of the castle. And then, beautiful flowers had been placed in every spare inch around that. (The koi pond) {DAMMIT! I told you I cant describe worth shit!}
Kagome smiled as she looked around the area. It was, in her opinion, nice to be back on the ground again.
"Kagome!" Came a deep masculine voice. Kagome turned around to see a man with long jet-black hair, cole black eyes, wearing a similar black outfit much like Sesshomaru's, advancing toward her.
"Lord Higen." {Hee-gan} Kagome smiled brighter. "How have you been?"
Higen walked up to Kagome and stopped. "Ah, the usual, and yourself?"
"Pretty good."
"Nice to hear." Smiled the Eastern Lord. "So, I see Lord Sesshomaru has changed you then? You look lovely."
Kagome smiled. "What do you mean?"
Higen let out a hearty laugh. "No need for modesty my dear, the Lord has turned you into a demon."
Kagome nodded. "If that's what you want to call it." She said, earning a laugh from the Eastern Lord.
"Funny girl, funny girl indeed." He continued to laugh. "So were is the Lord anyway?"
Kagome shrugged. "I don't know. Said he had to drop Rin off somewhere, but when he was done, he would meet me here."
Higen nodded. "Very well, why don't you come in and let me introduce you to the others? My wife is very excited to meet the new Lady of the West."
"Sure." Kagome smiled, following Higen into the castle.
= =
"Stupid wench." Sango's captor spat. "I told you to shut up!"
Sango did not say anything. The only thing that let her captor know she was alive were her mewls of discomfort and pain.
"Damn it all." Sango's captor sighed. "If you and your little friend would have just stayed out, every thing would be going according to plain. But now-damn it!" he yelled, looking down at his leg. A large gash formed above his ankle, and was now bleeding profusely.
"What the hell!" He yelled looking around the dimly lit room. "How the hell did this happen?"
His electric blue eyes scanned the room. Sango had not moved, and he was sure he had taken care of the other girl. So who or what cut his leg? His answer came when he was greeted by another shuriken headed straight for him.
The man dodged just in time, only to be greeted by another. The next one hits his upper arm, forming another large gash.
"Damn it! What in seven hells is going on?" Yelled the man, dodging yet another shuriken. He looks around the room. He can see no one.
"Damn, I'm not going to stand here and take this from someone I can't even see!" He says to himself. He looks back at the now unconscious Sango. "But I guess I can always get what I want in the end." He smiled, running over to Sango and picking her up bridal style, all the while dodging shurikens.
"See you later mystery guy." He laughs, disappearing with Sango into thin air.
Miko: GASP! Did anyone even understand that part? Well, I was going to describe the 'captor' but decided it would give away whom the guy was but remember he has a gash above his ankle and a gash on his upper arm. Tehehehehe...OH! And who was it that was attacking the bad guy? Was the guy really bad? And who is he exactly? And why was he in the castle in the first place?
The night had been progressing on, as it should, and Higen had almost finished introducing Kagome to every one in the ballroom when Sesshomaru arrived. Every one bowed respectfully as Sesshomaru entered the room.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Higen yelled with a smile. "Good of you to make it."
Sesshomaru acknowledged Higen by slightly bowing his head. He then gracefully walked up to Higen and Kagome.
"I was running a bit late but as you can see I am here."
Higen let out a joyful laugh. "Same dog, same dog you always have been, eh?"
Sesshomaru nodded, "Yes, I suppose I am."
Higen let out another laugh. "Ah, yes, still the same monotone voice and everything." He smiled. Kagome laughed at this, earning a deep growl from the Western Lord. Kagome continued to laugh.
"Yes sir but," Higen turned to look at Kagome. "I haven't finished introducing you to every one so, my Lord." He turned back to Sesshomaru. "Please excuse us."
Sesshomaru slightly bowed to show his respect. Higen smiled, and then bowed. "Follow me Kagome." He said, walking off. Kagome smiled, and after a quick glance back at Sesshomaru, followed Higen back into the main hallway.
After catching up with Higen, Kagome slowed down, and walked next to him.
"So Kagome, tell me, has Sesshomaru claimed you yet?"
"You mean the bite mark?" Kagome asked quizzically. Higen laughed. "No, I mean has he-have you had a go at it?"
Kagome laughed. "I'm not sure I understand."
"I mean have you gotten intimate yet?"
Kagome blushed ten shades of red. "No! That creep is to stubborn and I swear I just-Ugh!"
Higen laughed. "Well, what can I say, the Lord has never been much of a ladies man."
"I know." Kagome added. "I know all to well."
"Ah," Higen stopped walking. He then turned to a beautiful young woman with long black hair and electric blue eyes, wearing a skintight black velvet dress that had a slit on the side. Higen smiled. "Matsuko! Have you seen your father anywhere?"
Matsuko shook her head. "I haven't seen him all night."
Higen nodded. "Very well." He turned to Kagome. "Kagome this is Matsuko. Matsuko, Kagome."
Kagome bowed. "Nice to meet you."
Matsuko inclined her head. "And you."
"Kagome, Matsuko is the Northern Lords daughter. She is also my son's fiancée." Said Higen. Kagome again bowed. "Great, well now, Matsuko, if you do see your father-."
"I will let you know my Lord." Matsuko finished for Higen.
Higen smiled, and then started off down the hallway again, Kagome at his heels.
"My Lord?" Kagome asked. Higen looked down at Kagome.
"Do not attempt to act modest, Kagome. My name is what it is and I expect you to call me it."
Kagome nodded. "Fine, Lord Higen, who is the Northern Lord?"
Higen stopped walking. "Ah, Lord Darshia." He smiled. "Like me he is."
"What do you mean?" Kagome asked. "Are you friends?"
"Heavens no!" Higen laughed. "What a funny site; me and Lord Darshia friends. My child you are clueless aren't you?" he laughed. Kagome didn't speak, and Higen continued. "Me and Lord Darshia are almost bitter enemies! We have been for almost two centuries."
Kagome gasped. "You've been alive for over two centuries?"
Higen again laughed. "Almost alive for three. But still, as you can see, I am not all that old. And to boot, I still look pretty good."
Now it was Kagome's turn to laugh. She never expected Higen to always laugh and be so cheerful as he was being now. But then, his appearance portrayed that of a warrior or businessman the last time she saw him. Totally focused. And in a sense, he looked and acted like Sesshomaru.
"That you do." Said Kagome. Higen continued. "But as I was saying, me and Lord Darshia used to be friends when we were younger."
"So what happened to make you guys hate each other so much if you were once friends?"
"That my dear is what happens when you fall in love with a woman that happens to be your best friends sister."
Kagome 'ohed'. "So what happened between you and this woman?"
"Well, against the council and my best friends wishes, we were married and we had a son together."
Kagome nodded, "But...wait a second, didn't you tell me a few minutes ago that Matsuko was your son's fiancée?"
Higen nodded. "I did."
"But then, how is that possible? Matsuko and your son are cousins! Why are they getting married?"
"They are getting married because I need my son to get a head start for when I die."
Kagome stopped walking and stared off into space dreamily. "But that doesn't make any sense." She said, looking up at Higen. "If they are cousins, why are they going to get married?"
"Because!" Higen said coolly. "It is the natural way of things."
Kagome slowly nodded, and they started walking again.
"Lord Higen, if I can, could I ask you something?"
"You may." Came Higen's reply. "As long as it is a reasonable question."
Again Kagome nodded. "It is, I was just wondering though, all the Lord's are demons, including you and yet I can not smell your demon blood."
Higen laughed. "That my dear is because I am not really a demon...well in a sense I am but your automatic assumption that all the Lord's are demons is incorrect."
Kagome stared up at Higen who continued to stare in front of him.
"Then what kind of demon are you?" she asked. The next words to come out of his mouth seemed to ring loud and clear.
"A vampire."
Miko: HA! Bet you weren't expecting that now were you? Gave it a little twist with a hint of tangey-flavor...lol. But anyway, hoped you enjoyed it and now that I am done with this chapter, I'm gonna go ahead and start on the next one...lol...
