New Beginings
It had been a week since she and Sesshomaru parted, and even after that, he kept close eye on her. Inu Yasha had become suspicious and often questioned what was wrong with Alia. Nothing was wrong, except the feeling she had felt ever since Sesshomaru had taken care of her. He kept close, though, for another reason. Naraku would not easily give up. He would try to get Alia. He knew that Naraku had desires. The strongest being her. She was the only human he ever felt so strongly about except for Rin. It was a strange feeling to have, but he couldn't ignore it. Alia felt the same way. She knew how close she was to the silver haired demon now. It was clear that her feelings were as strong as his. She sighed as night fell on the village that Kaiede lived in. They ate dinner and she, as always, chatted with Kagome about this and that. General girl things, much to Inu Yasha's dislike. Miroku stepped towards her and put his arm around her.
"Alia… I want you to know my feelings for you are strong." He took her hands in his and Sango got up towards him. "Will you do me the honor of bearing my children? I desire a strong son to carry on the family name." Alia twitched and smacked him hard fallowed by Sango. Her sat in the corner and sulked.
"Serves you right, you lecherous monk." Inu Yasha snorted. Kagome sighed and looked over at Alia.
"What's wrong Alia?" she asked. Alia was staring outside with a surprised look on her face. "Nothing… I thought I heard something…." She lied. The thing she really saw, was the object of her thoughts and affections. Sesshomaru was there, waiting for her. She then formed a plan for a midnight stroll.
"I'm tired…" Shippo yawned. She smiled at him as he crawled over and snuggled in her lap. "I think we all should get to bed." Inu Yasha said gruffly and then softened at Kagome's tired look. She got up and went to her room and Inu Yasha fallowed, along with Sango. Miroku looked at Alia.
"You should sleep too." He said. She smiled but mock glared.
"Why, so you could get me in my sleep?" she laughed softly and he grinned.
"Well, since you put it that way…." She smacked him, but not as hard. He left the room with a grumble. She put Shippo to bed and then sat in silence till she was sure everyone else was asleep. She slowly got up and headed to the door, opening, and closing it as softly as she could. She stepped out into the chilled night air; the wind blew softly through her hair. She walked towards the woods of Inu Yasha. Where the well was kept. Where it all started from ending up in Feudal Era. She walked on to find Sesshomaru, and she stopped near the river. She looked into the waters reflection of herself. she had changed. she didn't know it then, but her feelings sparked a change. she sighed, not wanting to think about it.
"Alia..." Sesshomaru stepped from the shadows. "I... missed you.."
Inu Yasha woke with an uneasy feeling. he could smell his brother close. Kagome wasn't in bed and when he went to find her, she was heading outside.
"Where are you going Kagome?" he asked.
"Alia is gone. I can't find her and I'm worried." she said simply. He snorted.
"Hn.. why does it matter what she does?" He asked gruffly.
"Because she could be in danger." Kagome headed outside and Inu Yasha fallowed. his senses were right. Sesshomaru was here. they stopped and hid in the shadows at hearing voices.
"Sesshomaru..." Alia said softly as she walked towards him. she then leaped up and hugged him tightly. Inu Yasha and Kagome looked surprised in the shadows.
"Alia. I want to stay. I need to protect you from Naraku. He is still looking for you. He know now, that your with Inu Yasha and his friends."
"Why does he want me? Why does he keep trying to take me away?" she asked quietly, hugging him tighter at Narakus name. Sesshomaru bent down and kissed her lightly.
"I won't let him." he said softly and kissed her again.
"lets leave them alone, Inu Yasha.." Kagome said qietly.
"but.." Inu Yasha started to protest but Kagome grabbed his arm and dragged him away.
"We should consinder letting him stay..." She said softly.
"What?!" he said too lodly and within seconds, Sesshomaru was infront of them.
"What do you want, little brother?" Sesshomaru said cooly to him. the indifferance back as usual.
"Sesshomaru... We know you... want to stay with Alia. We heard." she said to him. He didn't answer as Alia came out of the woods and looked at them, sensing tention.
"I... Need to protect her. She..." he trailed off, not wanting them to know his very weakness was standing a few feet away.
"You.. have changed. I think we can let you--" Kagome began.
I want to take Alia with me. I want her to cme with me back to a place I can protect her." He said cooly. his indifferant mask up again. Inu Yasha looked down.
"Hn. fine, if Kagome agrees." he said growling slightly. Kagome looked over and could tell he was trying hard not to attack his brother.
"I want to get visits once in a while." she said with a look that told Alia she understood. "You wont forget, will you?" she asked her.
"Of course not." she smiled and hugged her friend. "Thank you for understanding." she said smiling brightly. "Lets go back and we will leave tomarrow." she said and Sesshomaru smiled but Inu Yasha didn't notice it. they walked back, towards the village and Kaede's to sleep till moring. Alia snuggled with Sesshomaru, and Inu Yasha gave him that knowing look. Sesshomaru just glared and Inu Yasha smirked as he walked into the next room.
The next day, Inu Yasha and Kagome woke up. Miroku walked into the room with a wide eyed look.
"Whats wrong, Miroku?" Kagome asked.
"Did you know that Sesshomaru is here?" they nodded. "With Alia?" again they nodded. "Snuggling?" they looked at him and nodded laughing.
"Yeah..." Kagome looked at him. "Why else would Inu Yasha let him live right now?" she smiled.
Sesshomaru looked down at Alia who slept peacfully. He smiled to himself and held her tightly, leaning down and--
