On wit it.
Kagome hated traveling day in and day out. Sesshomaru was hardly company. Whenever she tried to strike conversation, he seemed like a rock. A solid, boring, rock. But Kagome had the feeling that a rock had way more to say than Sesshomaru. Probably a lot more personality too.
They hardly came across demons, so Kagome didn't feel afraid of camping anymore, but she missed home. Her brother Souta always in the way, and Boyou, settling his pudgy behind at the foot of her bed. Her mom always cooking delicious foods, and grandfather with his sutras, fake as they were. Kagome giggled as she remembered how hard he had tried to purify Hojo the first day he visited. Speaking of which, Kagome never did get to tell him about Hitomi's crush on him. But now it was to late. She would never see them again. Kagome smiled warmly as she looked at the ground.
"Never again.", she whispered to the air. Suddenly she bumped into the back of something or someone solid. She looked to see Sesshomaru of course.
"What up?" He turned a solid glare her direction. 'Yep, just a rock.'
"The sky is up little one, but it is what's ahead that should bother you." Kagome peaked over his shoulder. Ahead were demons. Lots and lots. A group of what Kagome calculated as –evil pen demons that want to write and write- wolf demons. She had heard that wolf demons were vicious creatures, and destroyed men, women, and children. They took on a human form and could choose between that and their all demon form. They weren't the fastest demons, because the Inu demons had them beat. But Kagome saw one that looked like the ring leader, closing in on them quickly. The weird part, a whirlwind followed behind him. Never in her life had she seen such a spectacle.
He didn't take long to approach as Kagome saw for the first time, two other demons slowly running tiredly behind him.
"Well if it isn't the great tai youkai himself. Have you finally taken to human females?" Sesshomaru growled at his insults and advanced slightly.
"Whoa, relax! I didn't come to fight. It's just that I decided to stop and speak as it seems we have crossed paths into each others company."
"Could have fooled me." The demon frowned.
"Sesshomaru, do not use your sense of dry humor on me. It seems that you haven't really changed since we last met. You still have a fiery temper hidden behind that stoic façade of yours. I must admit, I am slightly disappointed. I expected more over the years."
"Kouga, all we are doing is trying to pass these lands, but you seem to stand between our exit and us. Now I suggest you step aside." Sesshomaru moved forward only to be stopped by a hand on his wrist.
Kagome was staring in deep thought at Kouga's legs and arms. Sesshomaru couldn't help but wonder what intrigued her about it.
"What Kagome.", he stated rather than asked.
"On his legs and arms are glowing jewels. How did they get there?" Sesshomaru looked but saw nothing.
"I have no clue what you are talking about." Kouga stood amazed.
"Seems that your girl can sense the Shikon Jewel. I contain two.-Or was it four- But then, I guess it all fits as she is the one to have broken the jewel to many fragments."
"When did I do that?"
" Well, for starters, you were with Sesshomaru's brother. You attached a crow demons foot to your arrow and aimed because the crow was making off with the jewel. You shot it, and it hit because the foot was pulled to the crow, but it also caused the jewel to shatter." Kagome looked at him bewildered.
"I don't remember this. You have a knack for creating stories, especially considering Inu Yasha is with Kikyou in the underworld. So that's preposterous." Kagome stomped her foot.
"Ah, but is it really? Perhaps there is something more than the fact that you look odd. Maybe you have a secret? Ne?" Kagome stuttered. She was quite use to the fact that she had come from the future, but how was she supposed to tell this strange demon such a thing? Luckily Sesshomaru came to her rescue.
"She has been in my castle, as we had to visit lady Kaede and so she could not possibly be the one to have shattered the jewel. So get out of our way." Sesshomaru pushed forward, pulling Kagome along by the hand.
"Oh, and girl. I love you." Kouga had striked her hard with that comment. She turned toward him angrily.
"You don't even know my name! How can you possibly make such a declaration?" He smirked.
"You can sense jewel shards. That's all. Bye now." Kouga started to run off into the distance leaving a growling Sesshomaru-not because of what he said, an angry Kagome, and a suffering Ginta and Hukkaku.-spelling-
"Sorry lady. He's a little self centered.", spoke Ginta. Kagome's face softened.
"Thank you. It is quite obvious. Men aren't like that where I come from. They have a sense of pride." She held out her hand.
"Please forgive me. I'm Kagome." The two demons smiled.
"I am Ginta and this is Hukkaku." They exchanged a warm moment before the two decided to catch Kouga.
"See you later Kagome!", they called as they struggled on their run.
Kagome waved after them before turning to Sesshomaru.
"This is not a time for you to make new friends. Now hurry." He started to walk as Kagome followed, contemplating what Kouga had said.
'How is it possible for me to be in the two places at the same time?' Sesshomaru seemed to notice the confusion written on her face as he knew the answer to her unasked question.
"It would seem that destiny was somehow altered. You were probably supposed to be with my brother, but somehow it was me you ended up with." Kagome gasped audibly.
"Wow. I would have never guessed that. So, in reality, I was supposed to shatter the jewel, so I have a twin roaming the Earth." Sesshomaru kept walking, suddenly feeling triumphant. He had something that his brother didn't. Kagome.
FUTUREKikyou held the jewel in her hand. 'It is me whom gets to wish? Has Naraku been destroyed?' She continued to walk toward the demon aura that reeked of Naraku even to the human nose.
When she arrived, she saw Inu yasha comforting Kagome. Beside the scene she saw the demon exterminator and the unholy monk. They looked as if they were dead. She looked at Inu yasha who's nose started to sniff as his eyes locked with hers.
"Kikyou,", he whispered. Kagome looked up. Her eyes looked at Kikyou with sympathy. Kikyou then knew what had happened.
It was hard not to notice the arm wrapped around her waist possessively. Inu yasha had accepted Kagome as a mate.
Kikyou fell to her knees.
"I now know what my wish is to be. Kagome, you shall not be with Inu yasha." She pulled out the jewel and started to make her wish.
"I wish that Kagome would have never become a traveling member with Inu yasha so that he would only be with me." Kagome gasped at the selfish wish as Inu yasha pulled her closer. But to no avail as her body dissipated. Never again. That was the theme of Kagome's life, in both senses.
Kikyou's wish didn't turn out quite the way she had planned. Everyone whom had lived during the time of Kagome coming to the Feudal Era had been created as two. Everyone had a twin living different lives. As it is with Kagome, falling eventually for both Inu yasha and Sesshomaru. But that is later on of course.
FUTURE SEQUENCE ENDSKagome started to sniff unconsciously as she sensed rain.
"Sesshomaru, it's going to rain soon, and we still have to stop somewhere. Any suggestions?" Sesshomaru turned his stoic face to her.
"We will find a hut. Or build one."
As Sesshomaru had promised, they stayed in a hut. Of course he threatened it's previous occupants to Kingdom come. He was a strange demon whom went to the extreme just for a place to stay.
Preferably, Kagome would have built a hut rather than scare a striving family. She sat by the stove uneasily with her legs pulled to her chest. It was terrible to be stuck with, Sesshomaru but, sometimes, he was helpful. He had transformed into a dog that night and laid beside Kagome for no real reason. But something had told him that it was best to make her feel comfortable. He had observed that human females were quite er, 'attracted' to dogs, in a proper since that is.
She rested against his neck as her hair mixed in with his thick fur. She really enjoyed the dogs company, even if it was really Sesshomaru. Of course this act of kindness changed nothing.
"Your still a rock Sesshomaru. The biggest, fluffiest, and reserved rock in the world."
I loved that chapter! I hope you guys did too! PLEASE REVIEW!
