Miko and the Demon

NOTE: ( ) MEANS THOUGHTS

As it rained for the third day in a row, a lone traveler walks the muddy path to the castle doors. Knocking five times on the old oak door, the traveler pulled an object from thier pocket. Just as the doors opened just a crack. "What is it you want, wench?" the shadowed figure answered in a emotionless tone. "I ask only for a place to stay the night. I would give you an item in return of course..." The traveler stated. "Be gone with you, I would not give the likes of you a place to stay even if you payed me with all you have. Now go!" The figure said starting to close the doors. Only to have the stanger stop him in his tracks. "Wait, you at least must listen to what i have to offer" The stanger said putting the object in view. "A small pathetic jewel? You insult me." With that said he slammed the door in the stangers face.

As the lord walked down the corridor, the doors swung open. As the lord turned to see what had caused the racket, he fell to his knee's with pain. "SesshouMaru, Lord of the Western lands, for your wrong doings you shall be punished!" Said the woman before him. As he looked upon her he relized his mistake, though it was already to late. "Until you can learn to care for anyone and them care for you in return, no matter the circumstances, you shall be cursed to follow the moons shadow" Then all was dark, save for a small ball of glowing light. As a clawed hand reached out and took it.....

That same night, deep withen the valley a new born babe's crys could be heard. As people walked quickly about, whispers could be heard. "Is it true?" "Yes she is gone." "How horrible the mother just lost her husband not 2 weeks ago, now this!" "What of the child?" " They say the grand parents will take her in but-" "They can not live much longer!" "They just dont want her in an orphanage!" "Quiet the midwife is coming" As the childs wailing starts to cease she was moved to a small cottage just outside the village.

16 years later.....

"Dont worry Hojo I'm just going to the graveyard." Kagoma said leaving her home behind. As she passed by a field Kagoma pick a few flowers. "I guess these will have to do for now." Kagoma said to herself. "Off to the graveyard again, Kagoma?" Said a dark voice behind her. Kagoma jumped at the voice. "Oh its just you Naraku, you scared me" She said walking a bit faster. "Yes it is just me." He said grabbing her hand. "Please let me join you." "Really you dont have-" "But I insist." He said grasping her hand harder making her gasp from the pain. When Kagoma finished paying her respects she got up and started heading home with Naraku at hand. "Well thank you for walking me, but I have to help Hojo with the chores." Kagoma said trying to get out of Naraku's grasp. "Not so fast. If your so thankful why not a kiss?" He said pushing her up against the wall, while leaning closer. "I-I dont know. I mean what if-" She was silenced as Naraku closed the space between them. The first thing few things that went through her mind were to never have him kiss her again. Another thing was her instincts telling her what to do. So she did.

As Naraku fell to his knees holding his crotch, Kagoma ran inside the house and locked the door.(Please, please just let him leave.) She listened carefully to see if he was still there. She could hear him cursing under his breath as he got up and started walking away. "Hi Kagoma, your finally home!"
