Chaptterrr
Sesshoumaru growled and shook his head viciously. "I have not cried and never will. Just get Kagome away from here. Far away. I don't ever want to see or hear her ever again."
Fushigi sighed and shook his head. "O.k Sesshoumaru, we'll get her away from here. But... does it matter where she goes?"
Sesshoumaru cleared his eyes of the tears before he looking at Fushigi. "No."
"Then I can take her in as a chamber maid." Fushigi grinned as Sesshoumaru nodded in agreement.
Infirmary
Kagome stared blankly at the ceiling, completely blocking out reality. She kept reminiscing about the past, her body hollow and soulless.
"Well...the answer's yes....."
Sesshoumaru ran... "GET BACK HERE SESSHOUMARU!!" Kagome skirted after him...
..."M-mates?!"... "Yes... go get dressed...."
"The
answer's yes....."
His smiling face remained in her sight, refusing to melt away into her depression. It had been two times now her heart had been broken by a demon... of the same family... 'Sesshoumaru...'
Kouga silently slipped into the room with his man eaters slinking in behind him. He made a face at the vile smell of sadness and depression mixing with the metallic scent of blood. He wrinkled his nose and looked at Kagome. "Kagome...?"
She didn't answer, her gaze didn't waver. Her body was spread eagle, her skirt barely covering what was needed, her pale skin looked even paler in the solitary line of sunlight shining upon her, her breathing shallow and uneven.
Kouga looked at Kagome worriedly, his brows knit together in confusion. "Kagome... are you alright... Answer me..."
"K..." Kagome began, it sounded like she was struggling to even speak. "K-Kouga-kun..."
"Huh... What is it Kagome?" he bolted to her side and grasped her hand. "What is it?"
She fell silent after that, her mouth closed extremely quickly. Tears leaked through the corner of her eyes as Kouga quietly left the room, leaving a tiny man eater pup to keep her company in her depression. 'Maybe it'll jolt her out of this madness.'
The next day
Sesshoumaru walked into the room and raised an eyebrow at the small man eater whelp curled up next to Kagome, nuzzled into her side. "Gem Gamgee, come here."
"Yes, Lord Sesshoumaru?" a mortal human walked into the room, bowing. "What do you wish for me to do?"
"Dress the miko in this and get her ready to go to Lord Fushigi's estate." He tossed some chamber maid clothing at Gem Gamgee, who caught it neatly in her arms.
"But milord, these are not clothes fit for milord's mate." Gem Gamgee protested, taking a look at the coarse material. The kimono was not silk, and Gem Gamgee was very confused. She opened her mouth to say more...
"Silence. Do not defy my orders. Do as I say. "he moved over to the bed, looking down at her face. His gaze softened for a bite before turning to look at Gem Gamgee. "I will call you when I need you. Leave me." Gem Gamgee bowed and closed the door behind her as she left, quickly sticking her tongue out at Sesshoumaru's back.
Sesshoumaru's voice jolted her out of her madness. Her soul returned to her, the shimmer returning to her eyes. "Sesshoumaru?..." she asked softly, sitting up. "Sesshou...?"
Sesshoumaru stared down at her before answering, dropping his icy tone. "Yes, Kagome...?"
"What did I do wrong... why are you mad at me..." She said slowly, looking down at the foot of her bed. She was afraid to make eye contact with him, she was even afraid to see him.
He avoided answering that question by changing the subject. "You are leaving the castle tomorrow. You will be going to Fushigi's castle to work as a personal chamber maid."
Her eyes flashed momentarily, the old Kagome showing before she returned to her passive self. "O.k..."
"You will not ever return to here. You will forget everything that happened between you and me ((A/N or is it You and I?!?!?)) It shall be like you were never here." Sesshoumaru droned on, as if talking to Rin.
Kagome nodded, shifting her gaze to the bed. Her head looked down, her hand petting the whelp slowly.
Inu Yasha and co.
Inu Yasha had finally broken his foolish madness and was walking around the room, something bothering him. "I know there's something wrong, but what?!" he growled, pacing back and forth even faster.
"Inu Yasha, do not overreact with such madness. You'll destroy the castle before you even figure out what is wrong if you keep this up." Miroku opened one eye lazily, his meditation being disrupted by the loud noise the hanyou was making.
Sango was listening to the men only half heartedly, the rest of her attention was to Shippou and Kirara whom she was entertaining at the time with coloring and stories.
"I need to find out what is bothering me, before this drives me mad."
Later that day, Infirmary place
It was long after nightfall, but still Sesshoumaru remained. Short bursts of conversation came between the two but most of their time was spent in silence, watching the little whelp's antics, running around the room.
Exhaustion was catching up with the both of them, their eyes only half open. "I'll be going." He said shortly, getting up to leave.
"Sesshoumaru... wait..." Kagome said softly, looking at him with her stormy blue gray eyes.
He froze and looked at her, questions written in his orbs. "Yes?"
"Can you stay with me... just for one more night?" she asked hopefully, her eyes shimmering with hope.
Sesshoumaru considered the consequences if he said yes. But, it didn't matter to him anymore, one more night wouldn't hurt. He nodded, giving Kagome a slight smile as he slipped into the bed.
She smiled and snuggled into his chest, his embrace. 'This one night... That's all I have left with him...'
He slightly tightened his arms around her, breathing in her scent. 'One last night...one night is all that is left...'
ENDE!! I luff this chapter. Yeah, Kagome will still go. But it will ALWAYS be a Sess/Kag pairing so don't kill me you guys! I was listening to 'Hello' by Evanescence sung by Amy Lee, which the song should be in the album Going Under. It gave me a lot of inspiration for this chapter, the touchy feeling part and the depression part kinda. You should listen to it, it's so beautiful that it actually made my cry during the writing of the chapter. Ja ne! Tenshi Korosu out!
