Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, cuz if I did, I would make Kagome an angel, Sesshomaru her lover, and Inuyasha dirt on her shoes!
Two ways out chap 3"Damn you Kagome, why did you go?" Inuyasha asked as he patrolled the barrio, searching for any little crack so he could use Tetsuaiga and shatter her barrier, no such luck. Then, he stopped. Why was he looking for her again? He has Kikyo, why go through all this trouble to get her copy back when he could have the original? With that last thought, Inuyasha but Tetsuaiga in its sheathe. So what if Kagome saw him rutting with Kikyo and ran off? Kikyo's shard detecting abilities were likely to be better than Kagome's. and not to mention Inuyasha could have Kikyo any time her wanted, while Kagome hardly ever let him at her, because of Shippo. Kikyo couldn't care less about who saw them at it. With that at mind, Inuyasha took off to invite Kikyo to join the group, and left Kagome to die in the woods.
In the cave.
The miko's strength was returning faster than Sesshomaru thought, and that made him smile. He watched as Kagome blessed him with her multi-colored eyes. She moaned gently and tried to pull herself into a sitting position, but a pain in her wrist made her cry out. And to her great and utter surprise, the great Yuki lord of the western lands gently pushed her back down on the furs. She shifted on the furs, and looked at him with curiosity in her angelic face. "Why am I hear?" She asked innocently.
A smile flickered across his stripped face, but its stay was short lived. He covered the smile with his icy mask. He looked down at her and said, "You had an emotional breakdown and tried to commit suicide." As he said these words, the innocent look was whipped away from her face and was replaced with hurt that shouldn't have plagued the face of someone so young and beautiful. Everything that happened over the previous hours came crashing down on her shoulders.
Her eyes went misty and her lower lip trembled, then all at once, she howled with hurt and with fury and with heartbreak! Her little body convulsed as she sobbed into the fur under her, letting all who herd her know someone had done her wrong. And before he could stop himself, he swooped down and took the priestess into his embrace. For a moment her body stopped convulsing. She looked up into his golden honey colored orbs for a moment, not thinking of Inuyasha, but thinking of how she had always had a kind of crush on Sesshomaru, since the first time she saw him. But then she wept openly on his shoulder, making Sesshomaru vary pleased that she was so open with him. Had she been any other ningen, he would have been disgusted, but he could not bring himself to think her so.
A good halve hour later, she stopped her sobbing. Sesshomaru looked down at her and found that she had cried herself to sleep in his embrace. He carefully laid her on the furs, then sat next to her. She twitched in her sleep. "Obviously dreaming of the halve breed." Thought Sesshomaru.
Kagome's dream:
Kagome was running. Nothing was chasing her, she was chasing someone, anyone! She couldn't stand the loneliness of Inuyasha's forest. She had to find someone, anyone! Every thing was so dark and dense. Her wrist throbbed with pain. Trees slashed at her face as she ran an away from the deep dark loneliness that was now her life! End dream
She gently opened her eyes to find deep honey eyes looking at her with concern, and that was shocking, seeing how they belonged to Sesshomaru. "You saved my life… why did you have to do that…I wanted to end it." Sesshomaru wasn't at all shocked by this news. "Well the way I see it miko, you have two choices. One, suicide. To end your life would be a terrible mistake." He said "The other choice being to go to my castle with me, and be a mother to Rin. That would be better than death, no?"
"Yes, I suppose I could… my things… back at the camp… I can't go back, not now." She muttered. Sesshomaru smiled and said, "You rest miko, I shall be back with your things." And with that, Kagome watched a terrible demon lord who nowseemed as docile as a puppy, rush off into the sunrise. She sighed to herself, then rolled over to get some sleep, only to dream of Inuyasha.
