AN-Hey!! I tried to update quicker this time! A new character will be introduced in this chapter!! Although you should know who it is by the title. Lol.
Disclaimer-I had like, completely forgotten about this-not that I wanted to remember. Cry I don't own any of the characters. No, I don't. It's such a sad story. Some thief stole them all.lawyers banging on my door Ok, maybe not.
On with the story!
"Okay!" With that Rin hopped away, looking for Jaken.
Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome and announced, "Follow me. I'll show you where you will be staying."
Sesshoumaru strode in front of Kagome, leading her into the grand castle. Meanwhile, he was debating on where he should let Kagome stay. Should I just leave her to the servant's quarters? Perhaps I should give her a proper room. Why do I even care? He growled under his breath causing Kagome to glance at him questioningly. He ignored her. Damn it. I'll just let her have to room next to Rin's since she will be her instructor anyway. Might as well have them close at night as well. With his mind made, he led her down a wide hall and up a magnificent staircase.
Kagome gazed around her in wonder. The halls weren't over decorated with large tapestries, expensive fabrics, or valuable antique furniture the way she thought all lords' homes were like. On the beige walls, there were just simple elegant paintings that were pleasing to the eye. Curtains with rich fabric and beautiful, deep colors of blue and silver adorned the tall windows. Everything held an air of grace and simplicity.
Kagome shook her herself out of her musings and calculated what was happening. First, I'd better remember where we're going or else I'm going to have to ask this arrogant jackass for directions. Or risk getting lost.
So, they made their way up a staircase, turning left at the top, then they marched past two intersecting hallways, turning right at the third, then they climbed two more flights of a narrow stair case, turning right at the top, going past three hallways, and going back down three flights of stairs.
Wait a moment, why did they just go back DOWN SOME STAIRS?!!
"Hey Sesshoumaru-"Sesshoumaru glared at her.
Kagome growled. "I mean Lord Sesshoumaru, may I inquire as to why we went UP all those stairs to only come back DOWN again?"
Sesshoumaru smirked and replied coolly, "I need to make sure you couldn't memorize your way around yet so you can't escape."
Kagome glared at him. "That thought never entered my mind." Sort of the truth. I mean, I WAS planning on staying to kill him.
Sesshoumaru didn't reply. By now, he had stopped in front of a pair of large doors. On it was a painting of a full moon with a large, magnificent white dog under it. Kagome was entranced be the picture. It looked so real, as if it will just jump out any second and tear the palace down. She looked around her to find that all the doors had a painting similar to this one's but the dog was slightly different on each one.
Sesshoumaru's voice broke through her thoughts. "This is where you will be staying. The room on your left in Rin's room and the room across yours is mine."
Kagome looked behind her. "But don't you sleep in the master's chamber or something?"
Sesshoumaru glanced at her through the corner of his eye. "That, ningen, would be none of your business."
With that, he spun around and left.
Kagome watched him walk away and huffed. Bastard She thought vehemently as she entered her room. She was stunned at the grandeur of the it.
The place was large-actually-it was bigger than the house she was living in at home! The wooden floor was highly polished so that it gleamed at even the smallest splay of light. A soft, fluffy indigo rug was spread in the center of the floor in the shape of an oval. A large bed occupied the left side of the room. It had navy curtains with intrinsic sky blue designs on it. On the wall across from the entrance were three tall windows. Baby blue, white, and silver translucent drapes trimmed the outline of it. A door two yards from the bed led to a Victorian styled balcony outside. Rose wood furniture where placed around the room. Across form the bed was a door.
Kagome ambled to it and peered inside. There was a large steaming hot spring in the center. This was clearly the bathroom.
Still awed by the beauty of the bedroom, Kagome walked dazedly to the bed. Tired to the bone, she flopped on it and nearly moaned with pleasure. The fabric was softer than anything she had ever owned, and the mattress, it was like, well, sleeping on a cloud. This is the life. Kagome thought with a smile as she drifted off into a dream.
Two hours later...
Bam! Kagome jerked out of her peaceful sleep with a start. She looked around just in time to see Rin fling herself at her. Kagome's eyes widened as Rin landed on top of her heavily.
"Oof. Wehweeowtoofere!!" Kagome cried, flailing her arms around.
Rin looked down to see Kagome tangled in a heap of mess with her sheets and pillows. She giggled and hopped off. She waited until Kagome finally freed herself from the blankets to jump on her again.
"Hi kagome-chan!" Rin greeted happily.
Kagome took a couple of breaths to calm herself before replying.
"Hi Rin-chan! So, what are you here for?"
At that moment, there was a sharp cough at the door. Both girls turned the heads to see who it was. Sesshoumaru.
"Wench, get dressed. My half brother has decided to visit. You will be down at the dining hall in 15 minutes. Rin will show you the way."
He left, smirking as he felt the girl's temper rise at being ordered around.
Kagome huffed. She looked around for some clothes. She hadn't brought with her anything so how was she suppose to dress up?! Then, she saw a closet and went to open it. Her eyes sparkled as beautiful kimonos came into view.
Now she was down to 10 minutes. Kagome quickly grabbed a random kimono and put it on. She gave her shiny her a couple of quick strokes and turned to Rin to lead her to the dining hall.
Rin squealed. "Oh Kagome-chan looks like a princess!" With that, Rin grabbed Kagome's slender hands and led her to the designated place.
Kagome soon found herself in front of a double door. She pushed it open and strode in. She was met with a long rectangular table with Sesshoumaru at the very end. To his left was a boy (AN hmm.. who could this be? Just incase you really don't know, its Inuyasha.) who quite resembled Sesshoumaru, with his long, flowing silver hair, amber eyes, and good build. But, he held more of a rough edged feeling about him and wore a red hoari.
Inuyasha's point of view
Damn. It was that time of the year again. He had to come back to this castle once every half-year or else he would be disowned. This was the law of the land because he wasn't gone for war. Nope. He was gone because neither he nor Sesshoumaru could stand each other.
He sighed and waited. What were they waiting for anyway? God damn it, he was hungry.
At that moment, the doors slammed open and in walked a...goddess. Inuyasha stared at the beauty that had just walked in. She had beautiful raven her that was a bit ruffled, deep, blue eyes, perfect pouty lips, and creamy skin. She was wearing a white kimono with a silver sash. (my mind has gone blank. What are those called again. Starts with an o.)
He watched her stroll in with Rin tailing her. They took the seats across from him. He then caught the beauty's eye.
Normal Point of view
Kagome sat down across the stranger and caught his eye. She blushed and looked away. Sesshoumaru saw this with amusement and anger. Wait, anger? No, just amusement.
In a cold voice, he introduced everyone.
"Wench, this is Inuyasha. Inuyasha, this is Kagome. Inuyasha is my half brother and Kagome is Rin's new teacher."
Kagome's anger welled up again. "Stop calling me wench you bastard!"
Inuyasha gazed at her in wonder. No other women has ever yelled at that idiot like that. She's different
Sesshoumaru glared at her, hard. Kagome gulped at the look her was giving her, promising her that she will pay for that remark.
(AN we are skipping to the end of dinner because nothing much happened and it was boring.)
Sesshoumaru cleared his throat.
"Inuyasha, go put Rin to bed. I need to speak with the Kagome." He stretched out her name, indicating that the "talk" was going to be about the earlier remark.
"What! I'm not gonna let you tell me what to do!" Inuyasha complained. But nevertheless, he got up sluggishly and went to put Rin to bed.
Kagome watched him and Rin go and gulped. Crap.
So, how did you like it? I know I rushed a bit at the end. But review! Kagome will get to know Inuyasha more in the next chapter. Shippo, Sango and Miroku will show up as well! Again, Review!! I love reviews!!
