Chains
Chapter 6: Questions Answered...Well Sort of
Inuyasha had moved Kagome down stares to the couch when there was a knock at the door. Inuyasha glanced at Sesshomaru, who sighed and walked over to it. He opened the door and was tackled by a young woman with shoulder length black hair that was up in a ponytail. She had on a pair of brown flared slacks and a white blouse. "Sesshy!" She squealed. "Hey Rin." Sesshomaru mumbled as he help her up and led her to the living room.
"OK! Where is my patient?" Rin asked in her usual over-excited, naive voice. "On the couch, she's just starting to wake up." Sango stated. Rin ran and jumped over the couch and landed right in front of kagome which scared the crap out of her. "Hi! I'm Rin! I'm a doctor." She beamed as everyone else sweat dropped. Rin wasn't exactly a doctor. Well not yet anyways. She still had about a year before she got her MD. Surprisingly she was number 2 in the top five students in her class. Rin looked over at Sesshomaru. "Nurse can you please come here." "Oh hell no! This is where I draw the fucking line. I am not a nurse." "Sesshomaru! Language!" Maye scolded as Sesshomaru growled and bopped the snickering Inuyasha on the head.
About 15 minutes later Rin came to the conclusion that Kagome would be perfectly fine. She just needed to rest for about a week and not do anything to strenuous. "That doesn't include sparring right?" Inuyasha asked. "Ofcourse it does!" Maye said and shook her head. Rin stood up and looked at Inuyasha. "Inuyasha, would you and Sesshomaru walk me to my car. I need to speak with the both of you." Inuyasha and Sesshomaru both nodded and started walking. They knew it had to be serious because Rin used their actual names.
"What's up Rin?" Inuyasha asked once they were outside. "Where did you get Kagome from?" Rin asked in a serious tone. "The Slave Trade. Where else?" Rin looked at Inuyasha in a shocked way. "So it's true then," Sesshomaru started. "She's not a half breed." "No, she isn't. But she isn't human either. I can tell you that for sure." "You're not saying that she's a full demon are you? She doesn't have any of the traits! Plus she doesn't smell like one." Inuyasha said while glancing at Sesshomaru. "Are you trying to start something little man." Sesshomaru growled. "BOYS! Enough! No Inuyasha, she's not a full demon either. I was thinking maybe a miko or something. Maybe you should give Kaede a call." Both Inuyasha and Sesshomarus faces went from serious to mortified. "Oh come on guys you can't still be afraid of her because of that. It was over four years ago."
FLASHBACK
"Sesshomaru are you sure this is going to work?" Inuyasha asked as he watched his brother shoot poison from his claws onto some trees and small parts of the house. "Hey, you wanted to know if she was a real miko!" "Yeah but Mom and Dad are going to kill us when they see what we've done." "If she's a Miko she'll be able to fix it." "Only if she wanted to." Inuyasha mumbled. Sesshomaru gave Inuyasha the signal which meant to go find Kaede and tell her a demon was attacking. He found her in the kitchen sipping some tea. 'Well here goes nothing.' Inuyasha ran into the kitchen. "Kaede! Hurry! A demon is attacking!" He screamed. Kaede hopped up and ran outside; but when she got to the outside stairs she slipped and fell on her arm. "Ohhhh shit!" Inuyasha cursed and helped her up as Sesshomaru ran over to help them. "Kaede are you ok?"Inuyasha ask. "I don't think so, I believe I've broken my arm. But never mind that, where is this demon." Inuyasha and Sesshomaru both looked at each other and then back at her. "Uhhhh...it was a joke." Inuyasha said nervously. "A joke ye say?" Kaede glared at the two boys then there was a pink flash.
END
"I still don't remember what happened." Inuyasha sighed and Sesshomaru agreed. "Well, if Kagome is a miko, Kaede will know." Rin stated matter-o-factly. Inuyasha nodded and said he call her in the morning. "Alright, well I best be off." Rin smiled and hugged Inuyasha and then turned to Sesshomaru. He sighed for what seemed like the millionth time today and opened his arms. Rin smiled and hugged him. "Well bye boys, give me a call sometime ok." "Ok, bye Rin." Inuyasha waved and began to walk back inside with Sesshomaru. "Do you think it's true?" Inuyasha asked. "What?" "About Kagome being a full miko." "It's a possibility. But I very much doubt it. I mean, it's illegal to enslave anyone who is a pure breed."
"Feh. I'll never understand that. Why should halflings be treated any differently?" "Because the world is a fucked up place little brother. Why were African Americans considered the lowest thing on earth over in America all those years ago? There will always be a race that thinks they're better. Now obviously not everyone thinks that way, otherwise yourself and the slaves over at the Slave Trade would not exist." "It's wrong. It should be illegal." "You're preaching to the choir." And with that Inuyasha and Sesshomaru went different ways. Inuyasha went upstairs to look for kagome. He found her sitting in his room looking out the window.
"Hey," He said leaning on the door post. Kagome looked at him; she had tears streaming down her cheeks. Inuyasha walked over and looked at her. "What's wrong?" "Nothing master." Kagome sighed and looked at the floor. "What did I say about calling me master." "Sorry," Kagome mumbled. "Habit." "Kagome what's bothering you." "Nothing is bothering me I just...I want something." "What do you want?" Inuyasha asked raising an eyebrow. Kagome started to fidget and gulped. 'Should I ask? He's been so nice to me, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. Of course this could all be a cover up.' "Well?" Inuyasha urged. "I kind of wanted...a...uhh...a journal." "That's what you wanted? You wanted me to get you a journal?" Kagome nodded as a few more tears ran down her face. "Kagome, there's no reason to cry! All you had to do was ask. We'll get you one tomorrow when Mom and Sango take you out to buy you clothes ok." Kagome smiled the first real smile in a long time. He blushed and wiped her tears off her face. "From now on if you want or need something just ask. Now, how about some dinner." Kagome nodded and followed him out of his room.
Sorry that Kagome wasn't really in the chapter. I kind of wanted some Sess/Inu action. Anyways, I'll update ASAP. R&R!
