Chapter 13
Sesshomaru's Castle
As soon as Sesshomaru set off with me, I was thinking about the whole situation that was going on. But soon my thoughts were gone, because I felt Sesshomaru set me down easily.
"Why don't you go and check out the castle. Rin's probably frolicking around outside. She missed you." He said to me with a smile. I nodded and walked up through the castle gates.
As soon as I passed through the gates I looked around the grounds. They were so beautiful and I as I was looking at the flowers I saw Rin playing amongst them. I saw a statue behind her of a little girl and little boy. I smiled to think that Sessy had such a soft heart.
"Lady Kagome!" I heard the little girl yell and she came running to me. I picked her up and twirled her around as I hugged her. She giggled and smiled at me.
"Rin, have you been good since I last saw you?" I asked her and she nodded. She was such an innocent child and to think that Sesshomaru had actually decided to let her stay with him. Maybe that's what had made him seem a lot softer and sweeter. I head footsteps and saw Jaken come around the corner.
"Oh, Lady Kagome, how are you on this fine day? Has Lord Sesshomaru come back to the castle?" I nodded and smiled at him. He ran with glee to the gates of the castle and I sighed.
"So, Rin what shall we do?" I asked her and she looked at me, and then scrunched her face up in thought before finally a thought came to mind.
"I will show you around the castle, if you would like me to." Rin said and smiled at me. I nodded and she took me by the hand. I looked at the castle and saw how beautiful it was. It was immense and as Rin led me inside I glimpsed back at the gates and saw that Sessy was greeting the others as they arrived. Rin led me down many corridors and finally she stopped me.
"This is the East Wing, but Lord Sesshomaru calls it The Forest Wing. Come on and I will introduce you to some of my friends. They are demons that Lord Sesshomaru allows to stay in the castle, they are also forest dwelling demons." Rin explained to me and I nodded trying to keep up with her. She led me inside and at once I knew why Sessy called it the Forest Wing, it was a forest. It was filled with trees and flowers and I could hear animal sounds ringing out through the tall trees.
"Hello, young Rin. Have you come to visit me again?" I heard the voice and then I saw something step from out of the shadows. It looked a lot like a deer, but when it got closer I could see that it was a centaur. I didn't actually think that centaurs existed, but who was I to say they didn't.
"No, Sir Taurion, I am showing my friend around the castle." Rin said bowing her head. The centaur walked over to her and smiled.
"Dearest Rin, I have told you to call me Taurion and I don't need you to bow in my presence. Anyways, who is your beautiful friend?" Taurion asked looking at me and nodding.
"Her name is Kagome, Sir Taurion!" Rin said forgetting Taurion's request. He nodded at me once more and shook my hand before turning to speak with Rin again.
"Rin, the others are running among the forest. I shall go and gather them together so they can meet the lovely Kagome." Taurion said to Rin and she nodded. Taurion then took off into the forest. Rin then grabbed my hand again and led me to the middle of the forest. It was a circular area of beautiful green grass and flowers.
"Lady Kagome, sit down here on the grass, and it's better if you have no shoes on. The forest floor is very soft and cool." Rin said to me as I sat down amongst the flowers. I took off my shoes at her request and felt a strong breeze pass through and when I looked at my clothes, they had changed.
"What in the world?" I said shocked that somehow my clothes had just been magically changed. I was now wearing a flowered short skirt and a flowered blouse that blended beautifully with the skirt.
"It's the magic of the forest." Rin said to me and giggled. I looked at her and smiled, and then I began to laugh. I stood up and grabbed Rin's hand.
"Alright, then I am going to dance with you. Do you know how to dance?" I asked Rin and she nodded. I began swaying around with her, but I soon found that it was very hard for me to move with her. I picked her up and twirled her around until we fell down.
"Hello, young Rin!" I heard the many voices shout the same greeting to Rin. As my vision returned I saw that there were centaurs and owls, deer and rabbits, and chipmunks.
"Kagome, meet Polaris, the white centaur, Ai, the wise brown owl, Mink, the funny chipmunk, Momoko, the young doe, Auron, the colored rabbit, and Rink, the brother of Mink." Rin said introducing me to the animal demons that were surrounding me. They all nodded and soon most scampered away, except for Polaris and Taurion.
"Sorry, I was late. My name is Kimarai. I am the blue panther demon." The demon that walked out of the shadows said to us and I nodded and Rin looked out the windows of the Forest wing.
"Oh, no Lord Sesshomaru will be very angry that I led you away for so long. It's almost dark outside. We must get going." Rin said grabbing my hand and pulling me away. The blue panther, who called himself Kimarai followed us and yelled after Rin.
"Rin, I will go with you, hop on my back and I can get you both the front of the castle before the sun sets. " Kimarai said to us and we did as he asked. Soon we were at the front of the castle where the others were waiting.
"I will lead you to your room Lady Kagome, after you are finished here." Kimarai said to me and I nodded, he then disappeared into the shadows.
"Kagome, where were you?" Inuyasha yelled at me and I whimpered. I heard a growling and saw Kimarai leap in front of me at Inuyasha. He growled and spoke to him.
"You will not harm or upset Lady Kagome in my presence. Polaris and Taurion come here!" He yelled and the two centaurs appeared out of the shadows.
"You will be kind, generous and courteous or we will teach you a lesson that you will never forget!" Kimarai yelled at him. Sesshomaru nodded at them and they retreated to my side. Kimarai then lay at my feet after I sat down.
"Thank you, Kimarai for shutting my insolent brother up." Sesshomaru said to Kimarai who stood and bowed gracefully at Sesshomaru, then returned to his position at my feet.
"I have assigned rooms to you"Sesshomaru began to talk again but was cut short by Rin, who ran over to him and hugged him with all her might. He hugged her back and she got down off of him and sat near me. I saw a little flash of color and then Auron, the colored rabbit, was sitting comfortably in my lap.
"Well, Kagome it looks as though the forest demons have taken to your liking. Anyways, everyone, I have a room set up for you. Rin will lead you there. If you want to visit Kagome I should warn you, for Taurion and Polaris are going to be standing guard outside of her room. Kimarai will stay at her side constantly and Auron will protect her, don't ask how, but if you want to find out just make him angry, That is all, you may leave." Sesshomaru said and turned to leave, he disappeared around a corner and I smiled at Akira. I stood up and walked over to her, still holding Auron.
"What an adorable little rabbit." Akira said petting the rabbit's fur, it retreated close to me and I smiled at her. I heard Kimarai growl at something and I turned to see him looking at Inuyasha.
"Kimarai, be nice to Inuyasha, he can be an idiot sometimes, but I know two words that will make him stop dead in his tracks. Do you want to know those words?" I asked Kimarai and he nodded, grinning. Inuyasha braced himself as I turned to face him.
"Sit, boy." I said to Inuyasha who immediately went crashing to the floor. Everyone in the room roared with laughter. I left the room holding Auron and soon after Kimarai, Taurion, and Polaris followed me.
"What is it, Lady Kagome?" I heard Rin's voice behind me. I shook my head and shooed her away.
"Kagome, I missed you." I heard Kouga's voie and before I could stop him, Kimarai was standing in front of me protecting me. Kouga growled but I shook my head once more.
"Kimarai, that is my mate." I said and Kimarai backed down gracefully, retreating to my side. Auron jumped out of my arms and into Kouga's.
"He likes you Kouga." I said and Kouga smiled at me.
"Why are you here?" I asked and he nodded before letting the rabbit jump back into my arms.
"Just wated to make sure you're okay, but I have to go, right now. I love you and go to bed." He said and turned on his heels and sped away.
"Come along Lady Kagome I will lead you to your room." Kimarai said to me and I nodded. Kimarai lead me down the hall and turned down many corridors. I noticed that I was near The Forest Wing again. He nodded and we entered the room. It was beautiful and after a bath I sat on the balcony before I went to bed.
What else was awaiting me at this castle? I would find out the next day and Kimarai's soft purring was the last thing I heard before I drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
Me: How was that?
Inuyasha: Not too bad!
Me: YAY! Now, please review my story and sorry to those I have reviewed on but didn't put a lot I have been busy and it was really late…but you know me. Hope ya'll liked it!
