Chapter Three: Escapee

Kagome was beginning to get nervous, the guys were coming back, seeing as how Kagura was hanging all over her 'date'. True he wasn't her real date, but she knew that this Kagura person sure as hell wasn't.

Kagome cleared her throat, gaining attention from both Kagura and Sesshomaru. "What?" Kagura asked, rather rudely, she still had her hands all over her Sesshomaru.

"I know that you are not his date so, if you would kindly-"

"No." Kagura replied. Kagome turned red at being interrupted. "Listen he said no to you, so get the hell away." Kagome snapped, her eyes blazing.

"Listen bitch, I said 'no', was that hard?" she asked, she then turned to Sesshomaru, "Why are you hanging with this low class youkai huh Sesshy?"

Suddenly, Kagome felt herself being yanked back, only a hand covered her mouth. A sour liquid flowed down her throat. She knew what it was, a simple spell that closed off her miko powers for awhile. It was her strength and power. She watched helplessly as Sesshomaru's face drifted away.

The crisp air hit her face, but she had no time to enjoy the fresh air.

She opened her eyes, she felt, weird. Her miko power had returned.

Her arms felt as if they were restricted in some way. She peered up, they were tied together. 'Humph, figures, they have no idea who I am.' Her arms glowed with a red mist, poison gas. The poison burned through the ropes that held her hands bound together.

Rubbing her wrists, she sat up in the bed, and observed her unusual surroundings.

The small bed that she now sat on was leaning against the far left wall, facing west maybe east. A door stood of to the right of her. The only one, she could only assume as the way out.

She stood and reached for the door handle. But her sense stopped her, 'A barrier?' Damn, she should have known it wouldn't be that easy.

Concentrating, she again reached for the door handle. It clicked open. "Yes!" Kagome cried out happily.

She flung the door open, only to be flung back in. "Shit, they're trying to wear me out." She realized.

Walking around the room, she stopped at the western wall, holding her arms in front of her she chanted, "Samigumi, shashoni tamiguma." Three bright lights flew from her hands, one blue, one red, and one white. The three main elements. Water, fire, and wind.

Blue, red, and white.

The wall shattered leaving her clear for escape. Transforming into a cat, she sat waiting patiently on the bed, hiding her scent.

Damn her, he knew she was powerful, but no youkai had ever been able to get through his potions before. 'But she's a miko demon, no one is as powerful as them.' His conscience continually reminded him.

He barged into her room, only to see a black cat sitting on her bed. "Where is she?" he roared, he knew the 'cat' wouldn't answer.

He left the room with a huff, muttering all the horrible tortures he would do when he found her.

Kagome, still in cat form, followed him out the door, and along the long hallway. Sniffing, she studied her surroundings. A kitchen occupied her left, while on her right was a bathroom. Father down the hall was a living room, complete with stereo system and television. 'Man, this man must live alone.' She thought when she sneezed from the dust particles floating around. She'd be lucky if she didn't choke on one!

She remembered he was at the club though, so that helped with the theory. He sped up his pace, she realized he was headed for the door. He opened it, and before he slammed it, she jumped out, mewing her happiness.

'Free at last.' She thought delighted. She sat on the steps and pretended to groom herself. Secretly, she watched as the man from the night before, Naraku she remembered Sesshomaru calling him. He hoped into a red Mercedes, and drove down a dirt road, heading south.

Fire surrounded her, changing her form, she was relived to be in her humanoid form again.

"Now," she said, glancing around, "To find my way home."

She stumbled into the school drive way, "Damn root." She mumbled. She ha d spent two hours trying to find the correct way, then, a young man by the name of Haru had told her that it was the exact opposite way, meaning she had to travel two more hours, and then three more to get to the school. And now, she just had to trip over some damn tree root that just happened to jumped into her way, without her realizing it. She was angry and needed a bath, and the gods were seriously feeling bad for the next person to meet her…

"Hey, Kagome!" Kagome turned around, that voice, it was female, Kikyou. It clicked into her brain once the familiar girl came into view.

"Oh my god, Kikyou?" her twin sister stood before her. Same raven hair and blue eyes. She couldn't believe it. "How, where, wow." Kagome said baffled.

Kikyou laughed, "Let's get you cleaned up then I'll explain to you everything."

Two hours later, and a shower later, Kagome and Kikyou sat on Kagome's bed sprawled out, like they did when they were younger. "Feels like it was just yesterday." Kikyou said, sighing happily.

"I would say, 'It was yesterday.' But it isn't and this ain't no movie." Kagome said laughing. "Yep and your responses are still corny as ever."

"Hey!" Kagome grabbed the nearest pillow and attacked her sister. Her sister had anticipated her movements and had her own defense, a pink pillow, much larger than her own.

Kagome ducked an attack and flung the pillow at Kikyou's legs. Kikyou jumped and brought the pillow down on Kagome's head. "Ahhhhggg." Kagome fell dramatically to the ground. "Thy have defeated me." She fell to the bed and her head rolled to the side.

Kikyou stepped her foot on her 'dead' sister, "I have defeated the monster."

"Who the hell are you?" Kagome and Kikyou scrambled off the bed and fell to the floor. "Inuyasha!" Kagome groaned, he was the reason Kikyou's one hundred twelve body was sitting on her back?

"Who the hell is this?" he repeated, trying to hide his laughs. "Boy, if I were you I would run!" Kikyou said, getting up and running out the door. Inuyasha could take a hint, he followed Kikyou out the door. Kagome followed mere seconds after them. "Get back here dammit!" she could outrun them if she wanted, but what fun would that be?

Kagome rushed down the hall and around several chairs, trying to catch the dodging demons. "I'll get you and then you'll be sorry!" Kagome crackled evilly. Inuyasha grabbed Kikyou by the waist and headed towards the door. Out he went Kagome right at his heels.

She felt something stop her, then Kikyou whimpering. "Huh?" she looked up. Sesshomaru stood in front of her, his arms spread out, growling at his brother and Kikyou.

"Um, Sesshomaru are you ok?" Kagome asked, poking him on the back. "Yes."

"Ok, then can you let us continue our game?" She asked, trying to move around him. "Hm."

"Nice yes." She mumbled. She sprinted towards her sister and Inuyasha who had shot out into the field. She heard something whiz behind her, turning her head slightly, she realized Sesshomaru was chasing her. Giggling she sped up and set pace with them, Kikyou and Inuyasha in the front, her in the middle, and Sesshomaru at there tail.

Inuyasha grabbed Kikyou's waist and they tripped onto the grass, Kagome felt an arm wrap around her wait. She tripped and landed in the grass beside Inuyasha and Kikyou. Sesshomaru wrapped both arms around her.

She giggled, followed by laughing, which was joined in by Kikyou, then Inuyasha, Sesshomaru allowed a smile to grace his features.

"That was fun!" Kagome said, trying to stop giggling. "Yeah, member when Souta used to try and catch us?" Kikyou asked.

"Yep, he always caught me cuz I was the slowest!" Kagome replied, smiling. It was nice to have someone remember the nice child hood she had before her father disappeared with her sister and brother.

"No you weren't Ka-chan." Kagome froze at the voice, and then a smile spread across her face. "SOUTA!" she shouted hurling herself at her younger brother.

"Wow, it's like a family reunion that includes only three people." Inuyasha mumbled. Kikyou jabbed him in the ribs. "Hey!" she said. He smiled at her.

"So, I see you fit yourself in with the popular people again." Souta said, glancing at the two white haired boys.

"What?" Kagome said, looking behind her. She blushed when her eyes settled on Sesshomaru.

"These two are the most popular boys in school, didn't you know that?" he asked, searching her face. She had grown since he had last seen her.

"I just arrived yesterday!" Kagome mumbled, feeling rather distraught that she appeared a she had fourteen years ago. (A.N: Remember she's a demon so that would be about 4 years ago.)

"Yeah, that reminds me what are you doing here?"

"What? Not happy to see your older sister?" Kagome said, pouting slightly. "Of course I'm not!" Kagome shoved him playfully, while he laughed at her.

"Yeah yeah, whatever." Kagome said, rolling her eyes.

"Come on, tell me, where s Mom?" Souta asked, looking slightly worried.

"She sent me here to get rid of me." Kagome said quietly, her eyes filling with tears. Souta wrapped his arms around his sister, whispering 'sorry's to her.

"Its ok Ka-chan, you got me and Souta now!" Kikyou said, smiling at her sister. "Yeah, I would have tried to find you guys but Mom needed someone to take care of her."

Sesshomaru and Inuyasha sat quietly on the ground, Inuyasha was the first to get up, he wrapped his arms around Kikyou, who leaned into him. He was happy that, even though she had barely known him for an hour, she still felt comforted by him.

Sesshomaru watched Kagome with keen eyes. This Souta kid smelled a lot like her, so he visibly relaxed. But, he still wanted to know where she went the other night.

"Kagome, why are you hanging with these guys?" Kagome glared at him. "Hey, I'm kidding." He said quickly, waving his hands in front of him.

"Kagome?" Sesshomaru stood and leaned against a tree. (A.N: Where the hell did that come from?)

"Yeah Sess?" He smiled at her nickname for him, "I was just wondering where you went last night, when Kagura wouldn't leave me alone."

"Oh…" Kagome said quietly. "That guy, Naraku tried to kidnap me, Kagura I guess was just a distraction I'm guessing. Well, I escaped by transforming so he wouldn't recognize me."

"HE WHAT? WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING AROUND NARAKU?" Souta's yells scared away several birds that had been resting in the tree above.

"He came around me." Kagome said hotly.

"Kagome!" Souta had been about to say something when Kouga had came up. Kagome grimaced at the sight of the wolf demon. "So, are you willing to come to my place?"

"Pervert!" she screamed, smacking him on the face. The wolf boy feel to the ground, swirly eyed. "I love a woman with a mean right hook." He said once he regained consciousness.

Sesshomaru growled, earning a questioning glance from Kagome and the rest of the group. "LEAVE wolf."

Kouga jumped up and held up two fists, "Oh, so you want my Kagome?" He growled, trying to punch the taiyoukai who seemed stunned.

"Is that true Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked softly.
