Chapter 2: Escape
Kagome wondered down the dark hallways of the house,seeking her bedroom,in which to escape from reality.As she neared her room,a slight shiver run up her spine,and knowing the reason for it,Kagome groaned with annoyence,tonight just wasn't her night. Stopping in mid-step she sighed and in a huffy tone spoke.
"What do you want Kouga?"
"My,my,Kagome it seems someone's in a shitty mood,mind letting me in why that is?"Kouga replied,stepping out infront of her,and flashing her a wide smile.
"No....now please leave me alone,I wish to sleep."Kagome replied,not even sparing a glace at Kouga before brushing him aside and continuing down the hallway.
Kouga just shrugged before getting on his way,not quite sure what was the matter but wasn't going to push it.Kagome's footsteps stopped at a large wooden door,one that was coated in dark blue paint,and ingraved with vines crawling up the whole one half. Opening the door,and stummbling into the dark alaboret room.The walls were a creamy dark blue with gold trimming while candles linned the room with light.Her bed was canopy styled,with bluish,purple curtains drapping over almost the entire bed,along with gold ropes that tied the curtains together,The covers on the bed were black,and trimmed in purple.The carpet was a soft rick red colour,that matched the curtains drapped over the only window in the room,that reached nearly to the ceiling,and all the way to the floor,while the window itself over looked the forest.
Taking heavy steps to her bed,Kagome slumped down on the comfertor,while she stared up towards the ceiling.As Kagome stared at the ceiling,her eyes began to close and soon sleep took over her body.
The sounds of footsteps and people murmuring to eachother awoke Kagome the next day.Groaning while stretching her limbs, she slid off her bed,and walked to the door.Standing only a few inches from the door,she listened in on what the people on the otherside were saying.After a couple minutes of listening and only hearing the men that stood outside her door babbling about things unimportant,Kagome rolled her eyes and made herself equanted with her bathroom mirror.
"Another day, another guard,oh joy...."Kagome mumbled to herself.
Deciding to take a shower,Kagome stripped off all her clothes and started the shower.When she finished,Kagome grabbed one of the big fluffy,gold towels and dried herself off.Wrapping the towel around her form,she headed to her closet,and was now in a search for clothes.
"Too plain.....too fancy.....too blah....hm what have we here"Kagome run her hands along the deep purple silk.The top was a long purple silk fabric,that reached a little past her hips,while the arms flared out and contected at the wrist and the neck was in the shape of a V and showed a little clevage.The second part of the top was the corset.The corset was black,and covered in deep purple vines,while the lace that held it together at the back was a bluish purple,almost the same colour as her curtains over her bed.After deciding that,that was the top she was going to wear today,Kagome went in search for the rest of her outfit.After coming acorss many pants,and long skirts,Kagome finially found a black leather mini skirt,and quickly placed it along side with the rest of her clothes for today.
Finially putting on her outfit,she made check in the vanity mirror that it looked good.Kagome winced when she saw her reflextion,her outfit was perfect,but her skin was what made her wince.She had become paler then usual,and it made her look sick,so with the help of her foundain,one in which she placed away,just in case she needed any darkening on her skin,made quick work on her sick looking skin,now giving it,it's creamy complextion once again.
Taking the brush to her hair,she brushed it until it sparkled black,with that almost blue tint to it.Placing her hair back in a loose messy bun,and curled the strands that fell out,then she placed a black ribbon around the bun,and letting the ends flow down into the flallen strands.After finishing with her hair she began to work on her make-up which she made quick work on.Putting on eye liner,she outlined both the top and bottom on the inside of her eye lids,while using baby blue eye shadow for a base colour and a little bit of purple eye shadow to give it a better shimmer.Kagome double checked herself in the mirror,making sure everything was to satsisfation.
Leaving the vanity mirror,Kagome strided to her door,but then quickly stopped in her tracks."Damn forgot shoes....",Back tracking to the closet,Kagome quickly rummaged through her big pile of shoes till she came to the ones she wanted.Picking out black knee high boots,with purple strips up the side,she quickly put them on,struggling with the one zipper for a moment,before nodding a 'perfect'.
Opening her bedroom door,she came face to face with several guards,not like she wasn't use to it or anything but these were the best one's.'Father really dosn't trust me alone does he....oh well..' Kagome sighed to herself.
One of the guards noticed her,and placed himself infront of her,flashing her a big smile,which Kagome then took the time to roll her eyes at.
"Hello,Lady Kagome,I see you are up.We are the new guards,Lord Onigumo has asked to keep eye on you,but I can see you could already tell that hm....but anyways Im general Okama,but you may call me Bankotsu."Bankotsu bowed his head in hello and respect,while Kagome did the same.Bankotsu then introduced the rest of the pack,which consisted of 12 other men. Kagome nodded to each men,before making her way down the hall,3 of the men following her.
As Kagome made her way to the kitchen to grab herself something to drink,she ignorred the men following her,thinking it as a everyday normal rutine.When Kagome entered the brightly lit Kitchen,the men following her gasped.
"Lady Kagome,how are you able to desend into the sun light,I am sure I did not see a talisman around your neck."Bankotsu gasped,looking at her in awe.
Kagome smirked to herself before turning around,and giving him a kind smile."Since I was born I have been amune to the sunlight,It is merely one of my gifts."Kagome answered,flashing all the men a smile,before decending over to the fridge,while basking in the warm crystal light.
"One of your gifts?"Questioned one of the younger men.
"Hai,That is not my only gift if that was what you were thinking."Kagome replied still searching through the fridge for her hidden drink,one that consisted of blood,for if she ever needed it.Sure she hated cold blood,but it was better then nothing when bad went to blood also served as back up when the fighting Vampires came back nearly dead,It would get them so they could last the night and regain their strength in the morning.But for Kagome she used it for her survial on a different term.
"What other gifts do you have,Lady Kagome,If you don't mind my asking that is."The same young guard questioned.
Kagome thought for a moment,on what she could tell them,that wouldn't be telling how she was able to escape all the time. "Well another gift of mine,is being able to search through one's mind---"
"Something like a physic?"
"Not quite more like being able to tell someone's emotions in a higher extent,or fighting antics,Im not able to tell what someone's thinking."Kagome yet again explained,her hand now reaching for the found bottle of blood.
"Is there any other gifts My Lady?"
Kagome rolled her eyes at the guard,the 'My Lady' thing getting quite annoying,but since she was the younger daughter of a Lord,they insisted in calling her that.
"One other,and it is but a simple one."She began,grabbing the bottle and walking over to the kitchen table,to sit down and have a drink."Im able to mask my scent and arua,this gift or power of mine is actually not that rare,though not many can do this cause their power is feeble but the ones who can have no idea about it,but if they were aware they would only need little practice and since I was taught how to use all my powers when I was younger,I can master it."
"Such a great feat for a little girl."
Kagome quickly looked up from her drink,to stare at the new person who said that last comment,and telling by the coldness of their voice,It was non other then the young prince.Her eyes came to a stop at the doorway,and to no surprise,there was standing Sesshomaru,glaring at her,with his stoic mask,and chilled golden orbs.Kagome glared back at him,giving him a chilled look as well.
"If your here to mock me,then leave Im not in the mood for cocky bastards."Kagome retored.
Sesshomaru was shocked by her blantness,but kept his cool exteror."You may be daughter to a Lord but that gives you no extent to order me around,bitch."
"And by being a son of Lord gives you a higher status."Kagome shook her head at him,still giving him a deathly stare.She hated when people called her a bitch,and usually those people were named,Kikyo.
Sesshomaru was yet again shocked by her responce,but his temper was starting to flare.For some girl to question him,set his temper."You will show respect for your peers,less you find yourself in a deadly state."
"Are you threatening me asshole"Kagome said in a bored tone,but underneath she was in a state of tearing this young dark prince's throat out.
"No Im merely warning you."
"Then take your warnings and shove them up your ass!"Kagome flared,her eyes staring at him with deadly daggers,the rim of them flashing crimson.
Sesshomaru growled at her,his eyes too rimming red." You will show respect to me bitch!"
Kagome slammed her bottle of blood down on the counter table,cracking the surface with her abuse.While growling out with clentched teeth,"I Do not show respect for Bastards let alone the likes of you!"
The two vampires growled back at eachother,while the others in the room watched with growing concern.If they had to protect Kagome,they then just might have to protect her from Lord Inu Tashio's son.Before any fights could proceed,Kagome burst from the room,in lightening speed,almost unseen by even their eyes.All 3 guards blinked dumbfounded,before Bankotsu yelled out,"Find her,do not let her get away!"
Before any could take speed,Sesshomaru was gone just as fast as Kagome.
Kagome ran down the hallway,mad as ever and looking for a way out of the house without being seen,though she had doubts she would.With her other 'gift' which she failed to mention,she could run faster then any other vampire,and be almost unseen to their eyes,but something told her that she was not alone at this moment.Quickly looking back,she spotted Sesshomaru fast on her trail.Grinding her teeth together,she bagan to mask her scent and arua,before picking up her fast pace,she came to a room in which she used many times before to escape this house.Nearly slamming open and shut the door,she made haste to the window at the far end of the room,but before she could get through it,the door flung open,and there in fast persute was Sesshomaru.
Growling at her luck,she yelled threw clentched teeth,"Leave me the fuck alone!"
Sesshomaru quickly looked to the direction where Kagome's voice came from and found a very angry Kagome standing by a large window,growling at him."That can not be done."
"And why the fuck not?"Kagome spat out,her eyes darting back and forth,trying to look for another way out.
"You may not be able to order me around,but my Father and your Father seem to see it fit for me to guard you."Sesshomaru replied,his voice dripping with annoyence."And you will not escape me that easily bitch."
As Sesshomaru growled back at her,the other guards had found her as well,and were now entering the room in a cautious pace.Kagome thought about just making a break for it through the window using her speed again,but knew they'd just follow and find her in no time.
"Kagome back away from the window and please come with us,"Okama ordered,slowly moving towards her.
"What is this a prison?"Kagome growled,backing away from the window.
No one answered her,as all the 12 guards from earlier that morning came towards her,ready to grab her at any moment.Kagome sighed and pretended to be saddened by her 'defeat',but then as she haulted in her steps,gave them a evil smile,and quickly said to one person in particluar,"You will find me not easy to catch,asshole",and with that she plunged upwards into the cieling,the tiles falling from the cieling and filling the room with a dusty substance.
"She's in the roof,get her out of there now!"Okama ordered,taking off down the hall with a few other men,planning to stopping her dead in her tracks.
Kagome sucurred around in the ceiling,taking quick but careful steps along the tiles.When she finially came to another of her planned escape routes,she quickly took haste down the long trail.After a few minutes of running carefully along in the cieling,she stopped and took out one of the tiles,then jumped from the roof.Landing with ease,she quickly peared around the room,before determining it safe to exit the house from.
Making her way over to the long window,she searched around for the lock,before pushing open the smaller part of the window,and swinging both her legs over the cill,and dropping to the grassy ground.
Taking off in a dead run,she ran for the stairs,making sure to also listen and smell for any others pressences then herself. When everything was checked,she bolted to the top step,and jumped off of it.As soon as her feet hit the ground again,she ran just as fast,heading to her one beloved place.
