hi all. sorry I took so long. but my brother wa taking all my internet time.
Chapter 17: Worry
-Kag's pov-
Oh my GOD! NO, Sesshoumaru's on the ground! He's not moving! Sesshoumaru! Move! Move! Give me a sign you're still alive!
"Arg…." I heard! He's alive!
"Sesshoumaru, are you okay? Please open your eyes! Please! You can't die! I'm to young for you too die!" I said shaking him lightly on the chest… and I just noticed… his armor's gone?
I looked around and found that it was in pieces. Oh, my Kami! If that fall was strong enough to break Sesshoumaru's armor, then what about Sesshoumaru himself?! This only made me more worried! He can't die just because of me! I won't let him!
-Sessho's pov-
I opened my eyes and saw blue. Blue sapphire eyes filled with worry and despair. 'Kagome.'
"Oh my gosh! You're alive!" suddenly, the worry and despair vanished just like that… would that worry emotion be directed to this Sesshoumaru?
I was about to speak and mock her inferior worry but the words became caught in my throat as I felt her wind her arms around me..
"I was so worried! I thought you were dead!" she exclaimed. I tried to move but then a pricking pain went down my spine and I couldn't help but flinch at the pain at my side. She instantly let go of me and sat up. Worry once again placed onto her face.
"What's the matter?"
"I seem to have broken my rib."
"Oh, my gosh, I'm so sorry! This is my entire fault! I'm sorry Sesshoumaru-kun!"
"No, do not apologize for something you did not cause." I tried to sit up but the pain came again.
"No! Don't try to sit up! Let me help you." She said assisting me to sit upright.
"How long will it take for you to heal?" she inquired.
"In this case whence the injury is internal, I shall heal in approximately 3 hours." I said as she helped me lean beneath the shade of a tree. She held the collar of my kimono and slid it down my shoulders. For reasons I do not know.
"What do you intend on doing?" I asked.
"I'm gonna bandage you, what else?" she said looking at me. "It'll help you heal faster." And I let her.
But once she had her full sight of my bare torso, her eyes widened as she started to blush and I heard her intake of breath. I inwardly smirked. How amusing.
She coughed and moved to take something from her skirt's pocket yet the blush did not disappear.
"So um… what took you so long?" she inquired. If I told her the truth then I would certainly be subdued. Yet lying was very dishonorable.
"This Sesshoumaru... was actually thinking of leaving you there" I averted my gaze. I did not want to see her reaction.
"O-oh…" her voice was obviously filled with pain.
Silence ensued…
"Why?" she asked… should I tell her? No, it will be best for her not to know.
"There are some things that the gods wish to keep as their secret." That was all that was proper to say at the moment.
"I see…" she said finishing her intentioned bandaging. She stood up and dusted herself off.
"I'll be back, I'm just gonna get… um… I'm just gonna wash my hands." She said walking away. I did not like being so truthful sometimes. Yet I shall BE for I am the Lord of the Western lands.
-Kag's pov-
I don't understand! We were supposed to be friends! Why'd he say that? I was so angry that when I got to a stream nearby, I kicked at it with fury! Too bad nature takes revenge, 'coz I got wet with the water I just kicked.
"Grrrr!" I said with my hands balled beside me! "And to think I was actually worried 'bout that jerk!" I am so mad at him! "Grrr!" I am so not gonna talk to him for the whole day! "Grrr! Sesshoumaru, you insensitive jerk!" I screamed the water beneath me. Oh… wait, I don't know where in the west lands I'm in. I don't know how to get back to camp. 'Grrr!'
Later…
He looked up at me as I patiently tapped my feet onto the ground. "Take me home." I said in a stern voice.
He just looked… we stood like that for a while, my eyes saying 'die!' and his eyes saying… I have no idea. He's too neutral to figure out!
"How did the prince of the wolf tribe know your name?" what?! He's asking me about that!? When I'm talking about going back!? That's it, I am going back by myself!
I was gonna just walk away with an angry scowl but then he grabbed my wrist and pulled me down to seat. My wrist ached. "Ow!" he's supposed to get the point by now. But he didn't let go. He looked at me with serious eyes and I was kinda scared. He looked so angry.
"Tell Me." he commanded as he squeezed my wrist even harder digging his nails into my skin! And it hurt!
"I-itei!" I whispered as I flinched from the pain. Then I saw his eyes widen just a little for half a second and came back to their usual size. He then let go of my ACHING and BLEEDING wrist. When I retrieved it, I blew on it and squeezed some blood out. I'm kinda used to squeezing blood out.
I looked at him to figure out why he did that. And why he was asking that... but then I saw his eyes averted away and angry. It was like he was repremending himself...for hurting me?
"Inu-yasha and I met him when he asked for our help… it's not like he's serious or anything!" I calmly said to him. But I didn't want to look at him. I'm just too...guity for making HIM guilty. I mean, it was practically my fault for... maybe being annoying to him? Or I did something he didn't like? or ..just something!
Suddenly, he took the wrist he hurt and as I looked curiously at him, he… licked my wound!?
What the heck is he doing?!
"H-hey! What're you trying to do! Are you some kind of Vampire?! Stop it!"
He stopped licking and looked at me… and I blushed at the site of him looking at me for some reason.
"This helps heal the wound made by an inu-youkai." Oh… I sat in silence as he picked up the bandage I left beside him and wrapped it around my wrist.
"What is this Vampire you speak of?" he asked. Wait. Was he trying to start a conversation? Well I shouldn't take this chance for granted.
"It's a corpse that sucks the blood of the mortals to live or to reproduce. They normally lure their victims by seducing them."
"So you say this Sesshoumaru is seductive?" he raised an eyebrow. Hey! I never said… I started blushing.
"No! You're having the wrong idea! Stop that!" he let go of my wrist and as I looked at it, it was all bandaged up. I smiled and giggled. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is so humorous?"
"Oh, nothing. It's just that I was bandaging you just earlier. And now, here you are bandaging me. It's kinda ironic.
He nodded…
"So… are you healed yet?"
"Almost. Just a few more minutes."
"Sure, I can wait." silence took over. then he took something from the ground and I found that it was the broken subduing necklace! He looked at it as well.
"Well, you won't be subdued anymore."He nodded and then took the two ends... and tied them up? What was he doing? He took the now restored necklace and faced it infront of me in it's circled shape.
I don't get it.What does he want me to do. Seeing that I didn't understand him, he sighed and then took my hands along with the necklace and made my hands put them over his head and onto his neck.
"What do you intend to get by doing this?" I asked. well, there's gotta be a reason why he put the necklace back on! He hated it!
He averted his gaze and didn't reply. Confusion was written all over my face... his too.
Then he looked at me, with his eyes scanning me up and down.
"What?" I asked.
"Your clothes are damp." And that's when I realized that my uniform was extremely thin! And now that it's wet…my chest is…transparent!!!!!
"AAAAAA!!!!! DOWN!DOWN!DOWN!DOWN!DOWN!DOWN!DOWN!!!!!!" I screamed covering myself!!!!! How annoyingly embarrassing!!!
'wham!wham!wham!wham!wham!wham!wham!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
