Something There

Chapter 10:His Plan

'No matter what the cost, Kagome, I'll protect you.' Sesshomaru took Tensaiga from it sheath just enough to see his reflection in the sharpened blade. 'I won't ever have to loose anyone again.'

Kagome opened her eyes sleepily and began trying to focus her eyes. She saw that figure againsmelled the smell of death. Her eyes came into focus and she realized she was mortally bound. He wore a device that was strapped to her head.( If you have ever seen Chrono Crusade episode 4 were loraiah and his master chain Azmaria to that chair and begin to torture her. That's what this will be like.) Her wrists and ankles were chained to a strange chair and she was now wearing a short dress. (Kind of like Azmaria's when they first hook her up to that machine) It was white and came to her thighNaraku wore a necklace around his neck.

"What do you plan to do with me!"she demanded trying not to sound to afraid.

"You see Kagome dear, I died about a century ago."Kagome's eyes grew wide as she heard the word 'died'."I was brought back to life by a skilled witch but my body was the only thing. My soul is just animated. A reflection of what was. In order to get a new body I will have to tap into your soul." He reached over and pulled a switch which sent a powerful electric charge to Kagome. She screamed in agony as her life force was being drained away. Her high pitched scream could be heard through the lands of Japan. It was a horrible crime to harm a Miko. To make her scream was a sin.

Sesshomaru and InuYasha looked towards the east as they heard Kagome's scream. Sesshomaru's heart leaped into his throat as he heard her cry. She was screaming through their mind link and Sesshomaru felt her soul weakening. He bit his lip.

"Kagome..."he mumbled. He took off leaving his younger brother behind.

"Hey!"InuYasha yelled rushing to keep up with him.

Kagome went limp after the electricity was shut off. Her eyes were heavy and she felt weak. A woman came over to her and tilted her head up and put her thumb on her lips.

"What is the meaning of this Kagura?"the young demones looked to be about in her early twenties and wore a beautiful red kimono, feathers fastened in her hair. She turned to naraku and pointed her fan at him.

"This was never about you Naraku. I only needed power for myself to stomp out that mutt InuYasha and his ningen Kikyo."Kagome heard the two very familiar names. InuYasha she knew but who was Kikyo? This name sounded familiar. Who was she?

"InuYasha..."she mumbled weakly. Her eyes closed as she fell into sleep.

Kagome felt herself floating once again. In the same black void that seemed to stretch out for eternity. Then standing in front of her was her Sesshomaru. He seemed to be glowing and he took her hand and pulled her towards him giving her the gift of speech.

"Sesshomaru..."he placed his finger over her lips to silence her. He smiled and stared into her eyes.

"Kagome, I love you. Can't you see that? I want to protect you as best I can. I want to keep you safe."she nodded and smiled back at him.

"I know."he leaned down to her and let his lips hover over hers a second. He let there lips barely touch and let her feel his hot breath on her mouth. Finally he pressed his lips to hers and kissed her passionately. He wrapped his arms around her puling her closer like she was the only het source in this world. She placed her hands on his chest and kissed him back to the best of her abilities. He broke the kiss and smiled.

"You didn't push me away."he said simply in a whisper. She shook her head.

"I want to be with you Sesshomaru...I want to be courted by you...to bad this is a dream..."she said sighing. He hugged her and kissed her neck.

"We will both remember this dream. After all your in demon world..."with that he faded into the darkness and she awoke...
