Chap. 9: The unexpected help
Kagome's
eyes widened with horror as the dead priestess neared her.
"Looks
like I don't have much competition" said Kikyo pacing around
Kagome as she stared at her.
"Actually,
you might. I heard that Inuyasha is attached to this girl." Said
Naraku entering again with the long pipe.
Kagome
didn't like how they talked about her as if she wasn't there. She
tried to study her surroundings but the darkness nearly blinded her.
"To
her? All he see's in her is me since she is my reincarnation. He
couldn't actually love this girl, and when I see him, I shall prove
this to Inuyasha. And he shall pick me and I'll take him to hell with
me like you promised, Naraku"...
Kagura
had heard enough. She quietly stepped away from the doorway and
thought about what she had just heard. How could Naraku and Kikyo be
so heartless? They were really going to kill the girl and banish
Inuyasha! She had to put a stop to this or at east do
something...Thats it! Kagura stepped onto the balcony and took out
her giant feather. Whether she gets in trouble or not doesn't
matter, It actually felt good to disobey her maker, Naraku.
Sesshomaru
stood in his room putting on his robes after his long shower. Why
wouldn't her smile just go away, why? As soon as the moment they
were away from each other all he thought about was her. Kagome's
scent lingered strong in the guestroom she was in. He often went
there to calm himself. Her scent soothed him. Just then he smelt
something different…something...foul...Naraku.
Sesshomaru
bounded towards the living room balcony to see Kagura standing there,
glaring at him. He instantly made a move towards his sword. When she
made no move to attack he sheathed it back in.
"What
are you doing demoness on my territory?" Sesshomaru growled.
Kagura merely smirked at him and fanned herself.
"To
warn you of things to come."
"What
could be so urgent for you to pass my lands...I could kill you for
this, Kagura."
"But
you have not, Great Lord Sesshomaru, Have you?" She sighed then
started speaking. "Not that I wanted to tell you this but I
thought you should know. Naraku and Kikyo are planning something for
you and your brother, Inuyasha. Kagome was kidnapped and is at their
fortress at this moment." finished Kagura. She was pleased. She
hadn't quite told him what was to happen but in some way she had
helped so she wouldn't get in too much trouble now. Sesshomaru sat
watching her, his golden eyes glowing with anger.
"Why
do you suppose to tell me this?" Kagura shrugged and answered. "
Like I said, I thought you should know"
As
Sesshomaru quickly dressed into his gear and began floating on his
cloud, he thanked Kagura. "Thank you...I am in your debt."
After
a few moments she wondered if he also had feelings for this girl,
Kagome. She needed to find out. She also got on her feather and
bounded towards the cliff for a good view on how this showdown would
turn out. She secretly wished Sesshomaru good luck.
Uh oh! What do you think is gonna happen hm? -QN
