Wow. When I tell people that I need reviews to update, people review. I shall give you a number of reviews to reach for each update. But it won't be too high. I'll get impatient.
Chapter Four: Entertainment
She changed direction with minimal problems then began to walk. That's why her leg wouldn't work. She had been sleeping on it all night, the blood had stopped flowing to it. As the cold and tingling feeling took over her leg, she made moves to sit down. Once her leg had the blood it was deprived of, she'd try again. She looked up as the door began to open. Rin came in, bouncing about.
"Lady Kagome! Lord Sesshoumaru says that I can play with you today! Come on Lady Kagome! I want to go to the gardens!" She nearly screamed. She grabbed one of Kagome's hands and began trying to pull her up.
"Rin, I'll get up." Kagome told Rin. Rin gave a nod then stood by the chair, watching as Kagome slowly pushed herself up. The pain in her chest was shooting down to her tail bone. She looked down at Rin, who was seeming confused by her slow movements.
"Is Lady Kagome hurt?" She asked. Kagome gave a nod then Rin thought a bit. "Do you have to walk slower than me?" Kagome nodded again.
"Yes. Walking is hard for me, so don't go too fast, okay?" Kagome told Rin. The little human girl started walking to the door, opening it for the injured human.
"Thank you, Rin." Kagome told the little girl. She nodded then followed Kagome out the room. She walked ahead of Kagome to lead the way to the flower fields she wanted to play in. Kagome looked around at all the decorations.
Everything was so fancy. She hadn't exactly expected to see it so well decorated. Then again, he was Lord of the Western Lands, it made sense. Still, she marveled at each piece of art and each expensive statue that she saw.
Soon enough, Rin had taken her to a stair case, trotting down without giving it thought. Kagome stopped at the top, pondering this for a bit. Going down would hurt, going up would hurt even worse. She slowly lowered a leg to reach the first step. When she almost fell, her hand gripped the railing tightly.
The young human girl watched Kagome struggle with the stairs. Her eyes fell to her grasp. She held on as if her life were on the line. And it nearly was. If she couldn't hold on while she was doing this, she'd fall down and most likely hit her head on something hard. Like the tile at the bottom of this.
Kagome cringed at the mere thought of hitting the ground. That would hurt a lot and her head throbbed with pain that she'd most likely feel. Her grip tightened around the bars as she made her way down these stairs. Why did castles have to have so many damned stairs!
After around ten minutes of walking down at the slowest pace possible, she felt her feet hit the tile. Wait, where were her shoes? She stared at her feet for a while before ignoring it. Not like she was going to be walking on hot asphalt. Besides, Rin walked barefoot and she didn't seem to really mind at all.
When Rin started to make her way for the large double doors, Kagome followed. There was nothing for her to lean on now, just her own strength. Her feet never left the ground. She was dragging them behind. Losing her balance wasn't on her agenda still. Rin made sure Kagome was outside the doors before she had someone close them.
Then Rin began to run off to a corner of the castle and making a right. Out of sight to Kagome's indifferent eyes. Rin knew where she was going and that Kagome would have problems keeping up. She was probably hyper anyway. Kagome rounded the corner then saw the largest flower fields that she'd ever seen.
It looked as if you could put a water park here with the size of it. Kagome had taken in a large breath of air. She hadn't seen anything so pretty before. Flowers of every type were here and Rin was somewhere amongst them. Kagome sat down and leaned against the wall.
She aimed to take in a large breath of air, but she couldn't because pain struck through her chest instantly and spread down to her lower back. She stopped breathing for a moment, letting the pain subside. Then she took in a small breath.
She sat and watched Rin make crowns of flowers. After making who-knows-how-many crowns of flowers, Rin came up to Kagome. By this time, Kagome had her eyes closed, enjoying the feel of everything around her.
"Lady Kagome." Rin interrupted her peaceful thoughts. She opened a lazy eye then saw Rin with a crown of blue flowers. Kagome gave a smile as Rin placed the crown on her head. She could smell the flowers' sweet scent coming down to her, and she closed her eyes again. This time, she fell asleep.
She jerked out of sleep as something began to tug on her arm. She didn't want to wake up, but whatever was pulling on her arm was persistent. She opened both her eyes to see Rin glaring at her.
"Lady Kagome, you can't fall asleep outside! If you're that tired, then you should go inside to rest!" Rin ordered. Kagome gave a half smile then slowly stood up, leaning against the wall for support. Rin had started going back to the mansion.
Kagome made her way to follow, but a rain drop landing on her cheek. She looked up to see the dark clouds covering the, normally, blue sky. Another rain drop hit her on the forehead then she sighed. She hadn't even rounded the corner and it was starting to rain!
She turned the corner then fell backwards, landing on her back. Pain shot through her back and her neck. She thought of just going to sleep there but decided against it as her eyes fluttered open. There the demon lord stood, looking down on her.
"Why do you sit outside in the rain, human?" He asked her. She thought of a rude answer as she pulled herself up.
"Because none of your mightiness wants to help." She replied rudely. Sesshoumaru growled then used his foot to push her back against the ground.
"You will not insult me, wench." He commanded. She didn't reply then he left after a while. She pulled herself up again, now it had started to rain harder. She sighed then managed to get up. She leaned against the wall, making her way in.
After she got in, sopping wet I might add, she was taken to her room and food was on her bed. She gently grabbed the food, eating slowly. The food tasted good, considering that it was food 500 years before the food of her time.
Next chapter requires... Let me see. 25 or 30 reviews.
- inu-yukai clan: Yes, I remember you. I am a bit shocked. I don't remember working on a story in ages... I think you read 'Wishes,' boy, that was a stupid story...
- AsleepForever101: Well, no... But then, if she did, then she'd leave and there'd be no story for me to work on!
- Angel of Anime and Demons: Niiice pen name. Anyway, I will only kill Inuyasha if people tell me that they want him dead. That sound fair?
- 1kenshinlover: No, not really. It will just take a while for her to actually understand entirely that she had died and that he had brought her back to life. Ever had that happen to you? Someone says something and it doesn't click until a while after? Yeah. I'm confusing myself.
- kiraracutie4: Well, Brought Together doesn't belong to me and Wishes is kinda... Stupid in my opinion... The two that were taken off weren't done and not that good, if you ask me. Sorry, it'll get better, I swear!
