But Kagome's heart was gladdened when Rin walked up bravely grabbing
her
hand and simply said. "Rins hungry, lets eat!"
Later
The sun shown brightly down onto the garden where Kagome sat gazing
into
the shimmering water of a small pool. Occasionally the giant, bright
orange
and white spotted coy would lazily swim by. Their scales reflected the
light and sparkled like some precious treasure.
"What happened back there." she thought
(flashback)
Kagome sat at the dinning table eating her food quietly trying not to
make
any noise. Rin was talking nonstop while trying to shove all of her
food in
her mouth at the same time. Feeling uneasy about the youkai lords
silence,
Kagome looked up from her plate at Sesshomaru.
"He's so quiet." She thought. "I wonder why he doesn't say
anything."
Feeling someone"s eyes on him, Sesshomaru looked up, strait at
Kagome. A
surprised look spread across her face and she abruptly looked away.
"Oh man, he saw me!" She mentally panicked.
Rin then sighed with satisfaction, after eating her food.
"Lord Sesshomaru, can Kagome and Rin go play outside?" Rin asked
sweetly.
"Rin, wait for Kagome in her room." Sesshomaru spoke in a bored
tone.
"Yes, Lord Sesshomaru." Rin said obediently. Bowing, she skipped
out of
the room, closing to door behind her.
Sesshomaru then raised his hand to the level of his eyes and snapped
his
fingers. Instantly all the servants in the room left immediately,
leaving
Kagome and him alone.
Sesshomaru's icy gaze stared into Kagomes eyes. There was a long
silence.
Sesshomaru then spoke out in a cool tone. "Human do you wonder why I
have
brought you here?"
Kagome started to tremble. "Umm not really."
"You are to look after Rin from on, she's in your care."
"Wait, don't I have a say in this!" Kagome blurted out.
Sesshomaru got up from his sitting position. His face had shown no
emotion.
He walked over to Kagome till he towered over her. Looking down on
her,
he spoke.
"Girl, if you do not wish to die, do as I have said."
"Nice going Kagome!" Kagome mentally yelled at herself. Staring up
at
Sesshomaru she felt small and helpless.
"What do I tell him?" She thought. "If I stay here and look after
Rin,
I won't be able to go home. WAIT!" Then it hit her. "I can't go
home, Kouga, he would find me! I defiantly would be found since I
live in
his lands!" Tears started to form in her eyes.
Looking down Kagome hid her face with her bangs. Sesshomaru just
watched
Kagome¡¦s form tremble, a saddens was building in her. Tears ran down
the
side of her cheeks and splashed upon the cold marble stone floor.
(End of flashback)
"Is Lady Kagome ok?" Rin crouched on the ground looking innocently
into
Kagome's eyes.
Quickly whipping a tear from her eye, Kagome brightly smiled.
"Don't worry Rin, I'm fine."
"But, Rin knows something that will make Kagome better!" Rin smiled
sweetly.
A curious look formed on Kagomes face. "What would that be?"
"Go play tag!" Rin cheered.
"Sure why not!" Kagome jumped to her feet, followed by Rin.
"Hehehe Lady Kagome is it!" Rin yelled running of in some random
direction.
"Haha not for long!" Kagome called after her.
(With Sesshomaru..)
Looking out from a stone window carved high upon the castle's towers,
Sesshomaru watched the two girls run around his garden. The warm
sunlight
poured through the open window. The rays of sunlight licked his face
"Rin seems happy, with the girl Kagome." He spoke as he watched
Rin's
face light up with pure joy.
"I still don't trust her Lord Sesshomaru." Jaken snottily crossed
his
arms.
Turning from the window, Sesshomaru started to walk towards his
private
chambers.
"Wa, wait for me Lord Sesshomaru!" Jaken called out, running after
him.
(With Kagome..)
Kagome was feeling much better.
The sun shown brightly down on the two, as they ran and chased each
other.
"Kagome's it again!" Rin squealed as she tagged Kagome.
"You got me!" Kagome laughed.
"Come on Lady Kagome!" She yelled as she ran through the garden.
"Let's rest for a while Rin." Kagome called out as she plopped
down on
a patch of sunlit cloves.
"Lady Kagome can¡¦t catch Rin!" Rin giggled as she ran towards an
arched
doorway leading out of the garden.
"Rin wait! Where you going?" Kagome called.
"Hehehe come on Lady Kagome!" Rin laughed.
"Rin come back!" She yelled springing to her feet she jogged over
to the
archway and peered out the side Rin exited. An edge to an enormous
forest
lay 20 ft away from the gardens tall stone walls. She then spotted Rin
disappearing into the dense forest.
"NO, RIN WAIT!" Kagome yelled.
To late Rin was out of sight.
"RIN!" Kagome screamed.
(With Rin...)
Dodging from tree to tree Rin ran deeper into the heart of the forest.
With her small size she could easily hide behind a tree trunk or bush.
Quickly running behind a tree trunk panting, holding her breath, Rin
tried
to hear Kagome's foot steps behind her.
Silence.
"Kagome...¨ Rin spoke.
No answer.
"Lady Kagome." Rin raised her voice
A frigid ghostly breeze blew through the trees above her, making them
rustle and sway.
"Where's Lady Kagome?" Rin whispered to herself. Looking around
her,
Rin saw nothing but forest. Rin then took off in the direction she
thought
she came. Nothing around her looked familiar.
As she ran, she could have sworn to have seen a figure dodge behind a
tree
just as she turned her face in that direction.
There was complete silence, except for the sound of her footsteps and
breathing. Not even chirping of a forest bird or the bussing of an
insect
was heard.
"Lady Kagome!" She yelled.
No answer.
Rin was frightened. Tears started to swell in her eyes. She was lost.
Stopping in small field clearing and she screamed.
"KAGOME!" She cried.
The forest was a deadly silence. Somewhere in the forest a twig
snapped.
Rin whirled around. Nothing but dark forest surrounded her.
"Lady Kagome..." She sniffled, whipping a tear away with her orange
and
white checkered kimono sleeve.
Somewhere nearby there was rustling of leaves.
"Who's there?" She shivered, as a chill ran up her spine.
Listening Rin heard a sound. It was unclear at first but steadily
grew.
It sounded like hissing.
"Who's there?" Rin yelled, as she desperately looked around from
where the noise came from.
As she turned, she was face to face with a pair of horrifying silted
eyes
She screamed.
