Okay, short chapter, sorry.

Chapter two

Kagome closes her eyes. I don't like heights. She clings to Sesshomaru, catching him off guard.

What? What is she doing? This isn't normal behaviour for a human like her. He looks down at her face, realizing. She's scared. Then he smirks, and goes higher.

He looks down at her face, realizing. Then he smirks, and goes higher.

"Hey! What, what are you doing? Aren't we high enough.?" She clings even more to him, her voice shacking slightly, burying her head into his shoulder. " Please, could you stop? I'm afraid of heights." Kagome just whispers out. Bastard.

How was it so easy for her to admit her fear? Sesshomaru looks down at the girl whose head was buried in his shoulder, eyes tightly shut. She really needs to get a grip. "No."

BASTARD! "…Fine." Why did I agree to this? There is no way I'll be able to stand a year with him…but if I could get him to change…than this will all be worth it. Shelooks at Sesshomaru and a question, that she has always wanted to ask him, came to mind." Hey, Sesshomaru, why do want to be like your father so badly?"

"…Fine." Shelooks at Sesshomaru and a question, that she has always wanted to ask him, came to mind." Hey, Sesshomaru, why do want to be like your father so badly?"

"That's none of your business."

"Well, if your so bent on not having me win, then what's the harm in telling me.?"

"Be quiet."

"Well, sorry, just trying to make at least a little connection with your corpse." Kagome sarcastically says, putting her chin on his arm. " But still? Why?"

" I said it's none of your concern."

"Well it should be."

What? "What do you mean?" This girl is so peculiar.

"What do you mean?"

Kagome sighs. "I mean: that if I'm going to live with you for a whole damn year, then maybe we could talk about something. I mean: that maybe I'd be less confused at why you hate you brother so much. I mean: if you want to be your Father, than maybe you should be more like Inuyasha."

Sesshomaru looks at her hard. " If I ever end up half the demon that my father was, I'd be glad. But Inuyasha like him? Don't make me laugh. It's insulting how you compare them. How could you find anything between them?"

"Well, they both care for humans, and they both loved Inuyasha's mother. They are father and son, just as much as you are a son to him. He would've been disappointed to see what you have become, demon or no demon. You harm us, when you should be helping your brother against Naraku, and-"

"Enough." Sesshomaru looks away, realizing that what Kagome was saying was true. What a persistent little wench. " And I think you answered your own question about Inuyasha." He looks back at her when her grip tightens even more. She really is scared. "Don't look down. It helps." And he goes down a little, nearing the castle.

Kagome gasps when she sees it. It's huge. The peaks of the castle are hidden in the clouds, and there are demons guarding the front. Scaly and red. " What are those demons? I never have seen them before."

"That's because they are created by me."

"Oh. You can do that?" Well of course he can you idiot.

"Yes." Sesshomaru smirks a little. There's a lot you don't know human. This is going to be easy. They land inside the court yard, it's foggy, damp, and dark.

"Why is it so different inside you castle. I mean, the weather." Kagome looks around, really desperate to see anything other than shadows.

"It's like this all the time." Sesshomaru looks around and closes his eyes. Soon after, the fog clears up, but it's still dark and musty. He looks back at her. "Is this to your satisfaction?"

Kagome looks back at him. " How did you do that?" Okay, a little weirded out by the supreme power thing.

"The weather here suits to my mood. That's all you need to know." He turns around and starts to walk toward a door. Kagome stays where she is. Sesshomaru turns his head slightly and says over his shoulder, "Are you coming?"

Kagome reluctantly started to walk toward Sesshomaru and through the door, which she won't go back through for a very long time.
