Departing

"Well, he saved me again last night from Naraku's demons."

"Was Naraku there!" Inuyasha demanded breaking eye contact with Sesshomaru.

"No;" Kagome said setting Shippo back on the ground.

"Feh, what are you still doing here!" Inuyasha growled as he turned his attention back to Sesshomaru, pointing an accusing finger in his direction.

"Collecting my ward," he said in his usual icy voice.

"Well get the brat and go!"

"Inuyasha, sit boy!" Kagome angrily yelled.

"Bitch, what was that for!" Inuyasha pulled himself up from the Hanyou shaped crater.

"For being so rude" she walked over to Sesshomaru, the anger leaving her being. "Arigato Sesshomaru-sama for rescuing me earlier" Kagome said bowing, her hair touching the ground.

"You're welcome Lady Kagome" he bowed elegantly his long hair sweeping the ground. The rest of the gang stared open mouthed in astonishment at The Lord of the Western Lands showing Kagome as his equal. "I shall visit you again Kagome" Sesshomaru leaned down and spoke lightly in her ear for only her to hear. Kagome blushed as he pulled back and left with Rin trailing behind him.

"What was that all about!" Inuyasha demanded storming up to a dazed Kagome.

"What, oh hey Inuyasha" she said dazedly as she continued staring at where Sesshomaru had just left.

"What did that bastard say to you!"

"That's none of your business!" Kagome said coming back from her dazed state and becoming angry again.

"He's my damned brother for crying out loud who I might remind you, tried to kill you before!"

"He only tried to kill me once with his poison claws but he didn't know me then. I don't think he is as cold hearted as you think he is."

"I can't believe that I'm hearing this!"

"Why, do you have a problem?"

"Yeah, you like Sesshomaru and his scent is all over you!"

"I told you that he saved me!"

"Then why is his scent aroused and yours is also!"

"Sit boy!" Kagome yelled the dreaded word then turned and walked towards Sango and Miroku.

"What happened Kagome?" Sango questioned.

"I'll tell you later" she sighed looking behind her at Inuyasha.

"Sit boy" he once again fell to the ground cursing. The rest of the day went uneventful as the group searched for Jewel shards and found none.
