Author's Notes: Right now, Misao want to say two things. As I always say in any of my fics, please, don't expect a perfect grammar. English isn't my mother language and I'm really trying my best to improve. :blushes furiously: I know that this is a really LAME excuse, because if I'm writing in English, at least I should have a proof reader. Well, I have a proof reader, but I'm a lazy ass and… you know. Another thing, if I use misusing words… … well, I didn't knew that :more blushes: and I'm terrible ashamed of it!. Misao is BAD!. I want to apologize about my grammar, and to who pointed me my mistakes, thanks you (weird, huh?). I'll have your tips in mind … and please, next time you want to tell me about my inexcusable grammar, drop me your e-mail, so I can tell you this things personally.

Gomen for the entire mess:bow, bow:

Scroll #14:

"The Storm."

My life was sooooo perfect until I met that female. I only had Rin to care about and now, for some forsaken reason, I, Sesshomaru, am starting to care about that intriguing Mikami-san. My life was soooo perfect!

I head to my chambers, I really need to rest. To hell with Mikami and her sooooo pathetic plan to escape. If she wants to die, so be it…

THUNDER!

… Mikami dared to defy me: I sent her a kimono and she despise it, I saved her life and she ignores me, I let her have one of my guests rooms and she got upset, I healed her lip and she keeps ignoring me, I try to comfort her and she kept her whines… not that I, Sesshomaru, am good at comforting people.

THUNDER!

And for worst, she obey me not. I only want the best for her and that the way she thanks me?… and since when I want her welfare!.

For being a blind, she has the luck of the gods. I wonder how she survive her teens… actually, how, in seven hells, she survive childhood, puberty and the teen ages… with the bad sharp temper of hers.

THUNDER!

I apology and SHE DARED TO MOCK ME? That's a cynic. But she is right, the damage IS done, she remarked that. Feh. Nothing that I, Sesshomaru, would not do. For a human, her mind is similar to mine, but the big differences are that she is a commoner blind human with a soft spot and I'm a noble without soft spot. If she were a youkai, we'll be friends, for sure, but… Feh… I, Sesshomaru, spoiled a potential friendship… for a change. Not that I care about.

THUNDER!

Still, we can be friends. I hate to admit this, but she amuse me with her constant blabbering. She seems to have an answer for everything. And she knows what is the best for her and she fights for it. Her changing mood is a challenge for every life form, me included, and she is a mystery waiting to be solve. She is strong, I can see, and her lack of will to obey only can be interpret it as a deep independence, almost like 'I don't need you, I can do it by myself', but also… 'I need to feel someone near'. She is quite the familiar type deep inside… she is a whole world to discover.

Why did I feel this? A human in a taiyoukai's mind is a disgraceful thing!… but I don't feel angry about that anymore. I want to hug her… I want to feel her touch. :nod to himself:.

THUNDER!

Friendship?. I, Sesshomaru, don't have any friends, I don't need them… but I could make an exception with Mikami-san. She got the guts and like Rin, she will be always at my side.

So?. I smell woodsy and like a forest after a rain?. She smells watery. Like fresh water or snow… I like the proximity of her presence and her attitude. It seems like I, Sesshomaru, am under a spell. I don't have another explanations about it. Whatever it is… I'm please with it. actually, I like feel this way… if only both of my girls were youkais…

THUNDER!

Must be in the blood. My chichihue fell for a human, my brother is with a human, and now I, Sesshomaru, no matter how hard I tried, I've fallen for two humans. And suddenly, I understand chichihue and my brother. Fully.

THUNDER!

I turn over my heels and start to look for her. She was trying to escape from here I think, maybe I can convince her of not… at least, not today, with this terrible weather… I know that she isn't in her room, she is wandering around, I'll track her quickly and… I don't know. Maybe talk.

THUNDER!

"Master! The wench is gone!." Says Jaken in a rush. "I went to check on her on the guest room, but she wasn't there and when I start to look for her, I noted that the garden's door was trespassed."

"Did she know about the fountain, Jaken?."

"I don't know. Maybe yes, but I'm not sure…"

What a stupid moment of run away from me!… Stupid… but once again, she amaze me. She is brave and got the guts to face this storm with light and dirty clothes.

"Where are you going master?"

"Prepare everything or my return. Any questions?."

"Are you going to hunt that wench down, my lord?"

THUNDER!

I nod and head to the gardens. I catch her scent around the door and start to follow it. I hope catch her before she finds the way out of the garden. If she find the fountain, then she will get a lot of troubles.

"Master?."

"Jaken…"

"Why trouble yourself with her. Let her have her way… you can always use tenseiga on her to…"

":glaring: I don't want to use tenseiga."

I step outside and wrap myself with my tail. Its really cold out here, Mikami-san will be freezing by now. I hope to catch her on time…

THUNDER!

Too late.

THUNDER!

She crossed the fountain and she is probably lost in the mountain woods… she smelled funny. Like Rin, before she got ill…

THUNDER!

I glare at the skies after that. I better go now. Calmly, she can't be so far. I'll track her down in a few minutes, even with this weather.

I have too.

I lost the fountain. I lost the fountain?. How come? Come On! I need to come back :sneeze:. Where is that damn fountain!.

THUD

Oh My! That was a long fall! My entire body is in pain. I didn't remember being so near a cliff:sneeze:. I don't know where I'm, I don't have any clue. Being in a unknown mountain isn't a relaxing thought. I could be in the edge of a cliff…

THUNDER!

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!."

THUD

Just what I need it! I fell down again, I get lost, and now a storm is falling hard in my head. That damn fountain must be under a spell. :sneeze: The entire manor must be under one! that's why little beast isn't allowed to cross pass the fountain:sneeze:. Maybe if I walk little by little… damn! I can't hear a thing!

Crash!

What?. My poor nose!. And this? A tree?. Oh, great!. Now I'm crashing against trees. Better be careful. :sneeze, sneeze:. Hmpf. I'm feeling dizzy here!

THUNDER!

THUD

Ouch! That hurts!. :cough, cough:. I'm cold… wow. It seems like Inu and neko are raining. I haven't heard a storm like this in years! (A/N: This is a good example of the all mighty Murphy Law U)

THUNDER!

How I'm going to get back?. Now I really mess things up!. The taiyoukai is going to let me have my way. :sneeze: I don't think he will come here to get me… maybe, I'm not sure. :sneeze:. My head hurts!… Oh no… I can't have fever right now. This is going to be my end!. :cough, cough:

THUNDER!

THUD

My head feels funny. I'm dizzy and I can't get warm. I better sit, this isn't going to get me nowhere.

THUNDER!

I can't stop right now!. I'm drench, cold and I think I catch the same cold that little beast. :sneeze: That's a BAD sign. I need to keep moving. :cough, cough:.

THUD

That hurts! I fell again… in mud for worst. I'm dirty and lost, and I'm going to die here, alone. Wait a minute… that sensation… better get out of here… a lighting is going to struck a tree nearby and I don't know which. :cough, cough:.

THUNDER!

THUD

Damn my blindness! I can't hear properly because of the storm and that cut my navigation by half! I'm scare! I'm lost and I don't know how are my surroundings :sneeze, sneeze:. And I got fever! What a mess!. :cough, cough:. Lets go, Mikami! A pity storm like this isn't going to stop you! Not now, after all you had live through!

Lighting

Oh my!. That was this close! I cover my ears. I run randomly even when I know that running under this circumstances is more dangerous than ever.

THUNDER!

THUD

I fell again.

DAMN! My Ankle!

This time I hurt one of my ankles. It hurt like hell. I can't move it… Maybe if I try to move… NO! I'm trap! Hurts to much!. :sneeze, sneeze:… I got fever… :cough, cough:.

THUNDER!

… this is it…

THUNDER!

… what?… who is this?…

THUNDER!

I should let her here to die! Look at the mess she got into:picks Mikami from the ground:. Look at her! She is drench, dirty and sick. She just gave me a lot of troubles.

THUNDER!

She 'looks' at me after she hugs me tightly, I wrap her with my tail, I'm drench too, but I can keep her warm at least a while. Her hand suddenly 'crashes' my face… and she smiles… she is smiling at me?

"… thank you :faints:."

Oh. She fainted again. What a weakling!… she thanks me.

THUNDER!

That cause my heart flinch.

To be continued.
