Gah! These chapters are so short! But I AM updating every couple days so I guess that counts for something right? My spelling appals me! And the fact I'm writing a fanfic is killing Alex so she's not gunna check it for errors……. Though she does want Sesshy and Kagura to have babies….. OMG demon children from hell much! I'll save that for a silly fic…. Well sillier….
Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha! I'm a fan, this is fiction! (gasp hence the name)
I hate sleeping on the couch….
It was about eight in the morning on a Saturday, and to Sesshomaru's great displeasure he had woken up with his head resting on the floor and one of his legs swung over the top of the couch. To no surprise his back was completely out of shape. He grumbled as he stretched and tried to undo the damage to his spine but of course it was too no avail.
I need coffee, its far to early in the morning to be dealing with these things.
He let his hair down from the ponytail he'd had it in to keep it fairly neat and walked over to the kitchen to started boiling the water. He grabbed a cup out of the cupboard and was just about to add the coffee when he heard the back door swing open and slam shut. He walked back into the living room and looked up the stairs.
Did Kagura decide to leave already? I didn't think she'd even be awake till noon.
"Eh Sassy! Knock, knock!" Sesshomaru's shoulders dropped and he slouched over making his back hurt more. He turned and started to walk back to the kitchen.
Oh god please no, not today…
Sesshomaru let his head fall into his raised hand as he walked. He knew the owner of that annoying voice all too well…
Of all the days
Sesshomaru's train of thought was cut off by an arm wrapping around his neck and a body slammed into his. He grabbed the arm and tossed it and its owner over his head. His attacker lay in a mass heap of twisted legs and arms. They began to twitch and unravel themselves until a human form was sitting on his carpet. The young boy looked up at Sesshomaru with golden eyes identical to his own. A scowl swept his face.
"What was that for jerk!" more of a statement then a question.
"You shouldn't attack people from behind InuYasha. Its very rude." He wasn't going to admit InuYasha jumping on his back had sent pain shooting throughout his body. Throwing him wasn't what he meant to do, it was just a reaction. The boy had silver hair just like Sesshomaru but his was far shorter, only reaching his shoulders. It was put into a ponytail and he wore a baseball cap on top.
I'm surprised it didn't fall off when I threw him.
His red shirt and jeans were all his usual attire. He seemed to really like red for some odd reason. The boy crossed his arms and tilted his head down, not breaking his lock hold glare. A childish position if there ever was one.
"I thought I was visiting my brother not the bloody Queen of England." He was only 13 and in Sesshomaru's opinion very immature for his age. He was a foot shorter then Sesshomaru and even though only 5 years separated them it some times seemed like eons. He was always so quick to respond to any situation with angry, but he just as easily brushed it off and when along his merry way. Sesshomaru sighed and returned to the kitchen to make his coffee. He didn't even realise InuYasha had come up behind him. "Hey Sesshomaru?" InuYasha said in a timid voice behind him. Sesshomaru turned to find InuYasha standing before him looking at the floor. "When are you coming home? Mom's really worried about you… Se said"
"I could care less what that women has to say. She should stop worrying about me and start worrying about her own health." Sesshomaru returned to making his coffee. InuYasha didn't move even when Sesshomaru quick walked past him coffee in hand. Sesshomaru returned to the couch and took a sip from the mug, trying to concentrate on the bitter taste in his mouth instead of the thoughts of his stepmother. InuYasha turned sharply and stomped over to his stepbrother. He didn't even look up at young boy that was no doubt giving him a steely glare.
"Its not her fault dad died!" Now Sesshomaru eyes had been raised and he was returning his brother glare. "She's in the hospital Sesshomaru! Her heart is getting worse everyday and you can't even spare a few minutes to go see her? " Sesshomaru placed his mug and the ground and let his elbows rest on his legs letting his arms dangle.
"You know why she wants to see me. So is that why you've come to my house this early in the morning?" His voice was devoid of feeling, as per usual. His brother's mouth moved to object but Sesshomaru bolted to his feet and ran over to the stairs. A shadow had emerged onto the floor and Sesshomaru now faced the intruder. "Can I help you?"

She sat on the edge of her bed, her face held in her hands, as her father burst into the room. He scowled at his daughter and began to yell. She just looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
"How dare you! Do you know how embarrassing that was for me? I've arranged you to be married to a wealth man who is to inherit his father business within a year! This would make millions for my company! With the support of a business that large there would be nothing to stop me! You're such a useless girl! Do something right for a change!" He raised a hand to hit her but it was caught in midair. The man turned and another girl came into view. She had entered so quietly her presents had gone unnoticed.
"Don't touch her…" His eyes seemed to glow red with anger.
"How dare you try to order me around you ungrateful witch!" He hit her hard in the face and she fell to the ground. He then picked her up by the collar of her neck and her against the wall. She used her small but powerful hands to grab his hands and hold them in place.
"Kagura run now!"
There was a loud slamming noise and Kagura's eyes flung open. Her body raised and she looked around the room for a cause of the noise. She heard muffled human voices and the events of the night before came back to her. She hadn't slept eaten or stopped running in two days. Now she was in a strangers house, and had no clue exactly were she was or where she was running to, only that she was running away. She had to get as far away from that place as humanly possible.
But how can I run away… its only a matter of time before I caught and thrown back into that hell… no matter where I go its useless…I'm so sorry Kanna…
Tears weld up in her eyes and she quickly brushed them away.
I can't give up, I can't show weakness… If I do I'll be broken.
She put a hand around her neck. She felt the piece of metal that clung to her neck. It was made of steal and very strong. She'd tried to break it off many times but had always failed. At the front there was a small key hole. There was only one key that could open that lock and it was impossible for her to get it.
There was a loud thud that interrupted her train of thought.
What on earth was that now?
It seemed to come from underneath her. She got up and walked out of the room. This place was smaller then she'd thought. There was a short hallway that led to room that seemed to be used for storage. It had a door that most likely led outside. Other then that, there was a set of stairs that led down to a second floor. Felt strange wondering someone's house without permission. She turned and walked back towards the room. She'd wait there until Sesshomaru came to get her.
"Its not her fault dad died!" Kagura snapped around and stared at the stairs where the voice had emerged from. She took a step towards it when another burst of sound made her halt. "She's in the hospital Sesshomaru! Her heart is getting worse everyday and you can't even spare a few minutes to go see her? " She now walked right up to the top of the staircase and looked down. She couldn't see anyone but she heard a faint voice. Its words were lost by the time they met her ears but they seemed to be Sesshomaru's. suddenly he appeared at the base of the stairs looking right at her. Kagura jumped back in surprise.
"Can I help you?" Sesshomaru looked up at her and she quickly regained her composure.
"Mind if I use your shower?" she said in a calm voice while picking up a chunk of greasy hair. Sesshomaru took a step back and pointed to his right.
"Second door on the left." Kagura stepped down the stairs and walked into the bathroom. She didn't even glance at Sesshomaru or his companion. She shut the door and turned on the water. She felt like a jerk for just asking to use HIS shower and then ignoring him, but she didn't want to get involved in his business.
I could care less about his affairs, I'll be gone soon enough anyways.

He watched as the door shut and his guest left him and his little brother to continue. InuYasha startled him with his sudden loud remark.
"Why the hell is there a girl in your house!" Sesshomaru turned to his little brother who now had disgusted look on his face. "She looked like something you picked off the street, I thought you had better taste Sesshomaru." Sesshomaru just sighed and walked back over to the couch, picked up his forgotten mug and drank the last bit of coffee.
"I'm not sleeping with her if that's what your refereeing to little brother. Get your mind out of the gutter your far too young to be thinking such things." He looked at his brother with inner amusement as his brother stuck his tongue out at Sesshomaru in yet another perfect example of his childish behaviour.
"I'm no little kid Sesshomaru! At least I'm not an old fart like you are!" InuYasha dawned a smug smirk.
I think he actually thought that was clever… I give him far too much credit… His stupidity must have been inherited by that mother of his…
"If you have no further business here I subject you leave before your mother starts to worry. I doubt you asked her to come down town this early in the morning." InuYasha smirk died and was replaced with a nervous smile. His eyes shifted sideways and he shifted his weight to his heels.
He's still wearing his shoes… If I find a single spot of mud on my floor…
"Uh… good point Sesshomaru… uh… godda go!" InuYasha darted up the stairs and he heard the door slam behind him.
Well that's one problem out of my hair.
He looked at the bathroom door and could hear the rushing water.
I better start breakfast.
Okay so we got to see a bit into both Sesshomaru and Kagura's past. Not too bad a chapter I think. By the way this story is mostly going to be a Kagura POV but Sesshomaru is going to have PLENTY on time to tell us his thoughts too don't worry.
