THE PAST ALWAYS COMES TO HAUNT YOUR FUTURE ForestSprite Chapter 9
Last Time
Yusuke now finally free from Kurama's 'damn' vines as he called them was rearing to kick this guy off Kagome because he remembered she didn't like him at all. His anger flared as he spoke to her roughly. For god sakes she was unconscious. he growled lowly ready to go over there, punch him in the face and take Kagome away from him. His eyes widened in surprise as Kagome compromised the demon her right hand coming forward.
How was that possible? Unconscious as she was she shouldn't have responded to the demand but she had as though it was the most common thing, as if it happened all the time. Now that he thought about it he wondered about how much he knew about her.
This Time
Her eyes began to flutter open as Sesshomaru was examining her wounds. Her eyes made contact with his golden ones and she instantly began to struggle, kicking and punching trying to gain her freedom. "Let go of me this instant." she demanded angrily.
He wrapped his arms around her locking her hands against her side and his legs crossed over her holding her still. "If you keep going like that you'll hurt yourself more so then you already are." he said softly into her ear making her shiver slightly.
Her eyes narrowed angrily at how he was making her feel. "Let me go you ass." she growled.
"I'm making sure you're not injured badly. The others should be here soon. You had them worried when they couldn't find you and a good number of your weapons were missing." "Like I care." she spat out.
"You should because they have waited a long time to see you again. As have I." "Damn you're a lying bastard. Let go of me now and I won't feel obligated to hurt you." she began to struggle more.
"My you're as feisty as the day I first met you." "You mean that same day you tried to kill me?" she said not giving up her struggling.
"That I have told you wasn't my fault. You were getting in the way and a liability." "So you tried to kill me when I was standing on the side not doing nothing?" she shouted incredulous earning her a low growl from him.
"Not so loud onna." he hissed. "You had the tetsusaiga in your grasps." "Oh yes a lot I can do with that sword." she began sarcastically. "Oh fear the miko who had no idea how to use a weapon at that time and couldn't even use that one because it was made for an almighty pricks half brother." she freed herself from his hold and smirked.
"Watch your tongue." he growled.
"You're the second to tell me that tonight and you know what I have to say to that?" He quirked an eyebrow at her indicating for her to continue and let him know. "I say, that I'll say whatever the fuck I want and you can't stop me from doing it." she cast him a triumphant grin thinking she had won.
He just smirked and swept in, his lips latching onto hers surprising her. She made a small gasp in surprise which he used to his advantage as he moved his tongue into her mouth and pressed against her own drawing it into his mouth were he sucked on it slightly.
He pulled back from her, this time his eyes were triumphant while she glared (or tried to.) "I say you should put that tongue to better use." he smirked.
"Why you.....you asshole." she hissed swinging at him which he caught easily. "I can't believe you, after what you did to me you just come waltzing back into my life like it's nothing. Why can't you just leave me alone? I have a life here now and you're no longer part of it. You were once, but that was a long time ago. Before you hurt me with what you did." "Is that why you never came back?" he asked almost sounding hurt.
"Damn it you think I didn't come back on purpose? I tried to. I tried so hard and when it wouldn't let me go through I thought I had nothing left to live for." her voice caught as she lost herself in that sad day. "Then my friends came over when I hadn't shown up at school for awhile and they were there for me. They were there for me even when they didn't know the whole reason behind my sadness. They are the same people that you tried to warn away from me. Leave them and me alone damn it." "I don't know what you're talking about." he replied his eyes narrowed in annoyance on her.
"Oh I do. You told them to stay away from me and warned them that I had enemies. How stupid can you get?" she ranted ignoring his warning growl. "Do you not know who they are? You raised their curiosity about my already non-known life to them. I could only keep so much from them in the beginning because they trusted me but even I knew they'd start to get curious and want to know more and what do you do? You warn them away. Smart one Sesshomaru. Congratulations on just ruining everything I've been working so hard to keep a balance in." "Onna..." he warned her.
"Oh stuff it up a pipe and smoke it Fluffy." she snapped angrily as she sat on one of the benches, and he sat next to her.
He couldn't help it. The setting before him was so serious and the emotion in him was hard to hold back. He tipped over in silent laughter. "Fluffy?" he gasped out laughing.
Kurama looked at him like he had lost it. "Yusuke are you all right?" he looked back toward the confrontation before him though his attention was on Yusuke at the moment.
"Do you know who that is?" he asked.
"Yes I do, now the question is do you?" Yusuke gave a snort of laughter. "I may be wrong but I think Kagome may have just called the rarely seen Demon Lord of the Western Lands Fluffy." Kurama and Hiei's eyes raised a bit surprised. "I'm in shock. The baka actually knows something." Hiei snorted. "The question is how did he know it?" Kurama asked slightly amused. "Koenma made me look through a bunch of files one day that he wanted me to know about, different lords and stuff to make sure I didn't kill so there was no wars starting." he answered waving the question away boredly.
They all gave a small sweatdrop. "What?" "Never mind." Kurama said shaking his head trying to throw out the wonder that filled his mind.
Kagome glared at Sesshomaru angrily then went to the bench that was set behind it so her back was turned to him. It was his turn to be angry now.
"Don't turn your back to me onna." he growled darkly.
She kept her back to him, ignoring him. "Kagome." she didn't move, giving no indication whether or not she heard him. "Lady Kagome of the Western Lands." That got her attention. Her head spun around and she glared at him angrily. "I'm no lady." she spat out angrily. "I didn't agree to be yours therefore I'm not a lady of the west." "You'll always be mine." She threw her hands up in frustration. "What is it with you stupid dog demons? What is it with you all being so damn stubborn? What did I do wrong in my life that I had to be stuck with two of the most arrogant dog demons in the world? First your brother who tries killing me then you who also tries to kill me?"
"What the hell?" Yusuke hissed glaring at the silver haired man with his little sister. "Did I hear what I think I just heard correctly?" "About her being a lady of the western lands? Nope, no, you heard correctly." Kuwabara said his eyes watching them all.
"Not that though that also pisses me off." Yusuke growled. "About him trying to kill her. If he so much as lays a hand on her again I will tear him to pieces." Yusuke growled. He was once again in Kurama's vines as he had been ready to attack the moment Sesshomaru had called her a lady of the western lands.
"Calm down Yusuke. This is obviously one of those things she hasn't told us about." Kurama said though he too felt angry. Hiei seethed next to him in silent rage.
She turned her back to Sesshomaru once again. "You know I can't forgive you." she said calmly.
"Kagome it's been along time. I had a lot of time to think of what I did to you." "Have you? I assure you for all of your 500 years of waiting I've only had about four months." "It wasn't what you think you know." "How is she?" "I don't know I never saw her after that." "I'm sure." Kagome said sarcastically.
"Jesus Kagome can't you give me a break. It's been a long 500 years." "You lied." she spat out angrily. "I trusted you and you lied. Just like your brother. So much alike you two are. Cheating liars." "Kagome I've had 500 years to think about that and live knowing you hated me still. I would think that when I did meet up with you again you would have forgiven me by then."
Again with the five hundred years. That wasn't possible was it? Yusuke thought to himself as he watched the two carefully.
Kuwabara also kept his eyes on the two but he wasn't really paying attention to them but the energy surrounding them.
"Whoa." he said quietly. The other three turned to face him.
"What is it doofus?" Yusuke asked.
"They aren't normal." Kuwabara said his eyes still on them. "The air around them it feels really weird. I never noticed that about Kagome before."
"You know what Sesshomaru I don't even know why I bother with you. I'm sure you have more important things to be doing then to be talking to this lowly ningen. Go take care of your lands my lord." she said sarcastically.
He spun around to face her and she turned her face to look at him calmly. "What do I have to do to get it through your head that I'm sorry?" he asked angrily.
"Leave me alone." was all she said standing up as she began to walk away from him her hands in her pockets.
He got up as well and walked after her before he caught up with her and grabbed her arm pulling at her roughly.
"Sesshomaru I have warned you not to mess with me. That means touching me as well." she said smoothly.
He growled at her and snapped something at her in a weird language. She practically burst out laughing and replied in the same language which only made him seem angrier. "You can't have what was never yours Sesshomaru. That must be a low blow the great Sesshomaru who has always gotten what he's wanted except for two things." He raised his hand as if to hit her but she was prepared. She ducked the blow and kicked at him making him let her go. She laughed again and said something to him in the weird language. He said something in reply making her stop laughing. She stopped where she was and glared at him. "That was low Sesshomaru. I never thought the great lord could sink so low but it seems he has just proven it. I think this meeting has come to an end. You haven't managed to change my mind at all about what happened. Bye." she said walking away.
"Will you always run?" he asked her.
"I do not run. I just know when something is not worth my time and when to stop chasing after it." "You ran from my brother once and now you run from me. Will you also run from your enemy when you see him again? He's stronger now then he was back then." "I told you I don't run and he's the last person I would run from. If you want to have another match you know where to find me. You've been stalking me long enough." she left leaving Sesshomaru by himself for a bit before he left as well.
"Here's a weird question but what the hell language were those two speaking?" Kuwabara asked. "It's none that I know of." "Of course you don't. It's the demon language." Hiei said annoyed.
"It's the old demon language." Kurama corrected softly.
"Like from 500 years ago?" Yusuke said bringing up the number he kept hearing.
"Exactly so. So how does Kagome know it?" Kurama asked curiously.
"What were they saying to each other?" Kuwabara questioned.
"It is five hundred years old, some of it is incorporated into our language now at least. Roughly translated he told her she still belongs to him and she simply swore at him." Kurama said. "Then she said he was getting slow if she was able to dodge his attacks and that five-hundred years of not trying to kill your own brother can do that to you and then what he said next was hard to understand...." "He said that she was better then her anyway." Hiei said his eyes on the place where she last stood, ruby red eyes hard.
"What does that mean?" Kuwabara asked.
"Couldn't tell you." Yusuke said. "I'm thinking though it has to do with a broken relationship." Kurama nodded his head thoughtfully. "That would make sense. They seemed to be talking about some girl even if they didn't give her a name." "So now what do we do?" Yusuke asked.
"We could always ask her about it, but chances are she'd be really angry at us for spying on her." Kurama replied.
"We had a reason though. We were worried about her." Yusuke said.
"I doubt she'd find that a good enough of a cover up." Kuwabara replied thoughtfully. At the surprised look of the others he glared at them. "What? Spending time with Kagome you learn her different moods and a little how she thinks. She'd be pissed that we didn't trust her enough on her own that we followed her." "He makes it a good point. She might find it as a betrayal of trust." Kurama said after a moment.
Yusuke grumbled darkly beneath his breathe before he looked up brown eyes almost pleading. "What about our trust? She has been keeping important things from us and I'm betting we don't even know the half of it yet." "Like we haven't been from her?" Hiei asked with a small snort.
"Hiei makes a good point Yusuke. If we are ever to clear things up either she has to open up and explain things to us or us to her." he shook his head ruefully. "I doubt the first option is ever going to happen though." "We can't just tell her about us either. I mean really how would this go?: 'Hi Kagome how are you doing? Oh me? Well I got something to tell you. Well ya know how I go away for awhile sometimes? Yea? Well that's because I work for this midget ruler named Koenma and am known as a Spirit Detective. What's that you ask? Well what I do is I hunt down demons and usually destroy them or they usually hunt me down. Crazy? No I'm not crazy. I really do do that. I also have this special attack known as spirit gun. I just point my finger at you like a gun and like a hidden trigger I can blow my enemies away." Yusuke shook his head. "No offense guys but that just wouldn't fly. That and Koenma would have my head for telling someone about us." Kurama chuckled despite the severity of the conversation. "No I don't think that would go to well though I doubt it would go as bad as in your scenario. She already seems to know of demons." "I think you've all seen enough." a soft voice said behind them. The four whirled around to see both Botan and Koenma in his teenage form there. "I think they've all seen more then enough." Botan muttered as she looked at the four.
"Botan." Koenma said trying to calm her down. Her shoulders sagged down defeated. "I think we should return to my office. Botan if you will?" Nodding her head she opened up a portal and they all disappeared through it.
End Chapter
So what do you think? I was on chapter 25 before I found this part I didn't like all the way back in chapter 8 then I had to change that but I found all the stuff I had written after that didn't fit the new change so I had to delete everything after that chapter and rewrite it all over again. Hopefully you'll all forgive me for my stupidity. Please r&r and I swear I'll reveal the results to you soon. I just haven't had time to look them over yet. smiles sheepishly Remember r&r and you'll get a faster update.
