Chapter Four: Finding... someone Part 2

(Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha and Co.)

Last time...

Sesshomaru sat up against a rock once again, he had lost the scent of Sakura and gave up for now.

But suddenly, he stood and rose his nose.

"It's Sakura again, it's her scent!" he said aloud this time.

He grabbed Rin and Jaken and went into the air. Off in the distance, came Kagome.

"Inuyasha's mortal? She is surrounded by the scent of Sakura's! How can that be?"

Instead of flying away, he set his two followers down then waited upon Kagome's arrival.


Kagome ran farther and farther. She wasn't running long and it also wasn't long before she realized the stupid mistake it was to force Inuyasha to stay behind. She cursed herself for doing it, but she still kept going.

Once she ran into a clearing, she cursed herself even more. There stood the Lord of the Western Lands. It was as if he knew she was coming and was waiting for her. (A/N: Which he was, but she doesn't know that.)

Kagome stood stiff. What was she gonna do? Just start to turn around and say, 'Heh, well sorry about that Sesshomaru, had no idea I was walking in the west. Best of luck killing people who come onto your lands.'

He would have her throat!

But she tried her best. "Hello, Lord Sesshomaru. Sorry about this." She said while scratching a non-existent itch behind her head.

He still stood there and said nothing. But soon was right in front of Kagome. He stared down at her beautiful face.

He started to raise his hands as if he was about to do something to her, but was soon stopped by the voice of a little kid, Rin.

"Lord Sesshomaru! Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin yelled while coming down into the clearing.

Sesshomaru and Kagome both looked over to her.

"I know you told Rin to stay with Jaken, but he was being mean again!" She yelled to him. She finally reached him and saw Kagome.

"Kagome!" She shouted and ran over to give her a hug. "What were you and Sesshomaru- Sama doing?" she asked.

"Uh.." Kagome couldn't find what to say.

Jaken came into the clearing and reached the three. "Lord Sesshomaru, I am terribly sor—" He stopped once he saw Kagome. "What are you doing here, human?" he asked.

Kagome planted her hands on her hips and looked down at the toad demon. "None of your business!" she said.

Jaken growled. "HUMAN!" he yelled then brought his staff of two heads in contact with her head.

Kagome's blood boiled. "Err!" she growled. She then grabbed his stick from him and was just about to whack him, but he ran. Kagome quickly gathered herself once the staff hit the ground instead and went after him.

She quickly caught up to him, and just when she was able to, the staff came crashing down on Jaken's head. Jaken yelped in pain and then fell to the ground.

"Take that stupid, stinky toad!" she yelled.

She suddenly stopped and looked over to Sesshomaru slowly and realized what she just did.

She chuckled nervously.

"Hmph," Sesshomaru said, he didn't really care what she did to his retainer.

Kagome slowly walked over to him. "Sorry," she said.

He looked down at her with bored eyes. Not saying a word.

"Thank you, Kagome," Rin said with a smile, breaking the silence.

(A/N: Sorry it's so short, but I am so tired, but I wanted to get another chapter for you great people!)
