Chapter 3
"No, Sesshomaru, run!" yelled young woman. "But okaasan…" tried to argue young inu youkai. If you have looked closer, you could see that it was Sesshomaru. Only much younger. "Sesshomaru, please, run! This youkai can kill you! He's too powerful! I will distract him as long as I can. Now go!". Lady of the West pushed Sesshomaru to the forest and turned around to face big bear youkai. Sesshomaru whined a little, but took off to the forest.
- With Western Lady -
"How silly" said bear youkai "You think you can stop me? I will kill you and then I'll kill that runt!". With this youkai attacked. Sara was barely dodging it. Suddenly youkai jerked and hit her with her claws. She fell. Then she saw bear demon taking off to the forest. But she couldn't run after him because of her wound. 'I hope you will alright, Sesshomaru…'
- With Kagome -
Kagome waked and groaned. It wasn't too good to sleep in a sitting position. Her back hurtled. She stand up. 'Strange' was her thought 'my bow wasn't silver in color… Was it?'. Really, her bow was now silver with strange pentagram-like picture on it. Same with her arrows. They turned purely-white with dark blue lines that matched her kimono. Suddenly Kagome heard a scream. It sounded like it was a child. Scared child. Kagome run to the place that sound was coming from. What she saw at the clearing she came to made her gasp as she grabbed her bow from her shoulder and shot.
- With Sesshomaru -
Sesshomaru run and run. Right to the clearing ahead of him. Tears were falling down his cheeks and were blurring his vision. 'Mother…' he thought. He could hear bear youkai's steps right behind him. Then something hit him. It hurtled. Blood poured out of the wound on his back. The bear laughed. "You thought you would run away, runt? While that bitch tried to distract me? She's must be dead 'till now. It's yours turn now!" he said and tried hit Sesshomaru with his claws again. But something slipped right in front of inu pup. It was his mother. Sara smiled weakly at Sesshomaru as the youkai's attack come on her back and a string of blood run in the corner of her mouth. Bear cried "You bitch! I will kill you for that!". Sesshomaru closed his eyes, expecting deadly blow that will kill both him and his okaasan. But it never came. The sudden sound of flying arrow and cry "Ike!" rang through the air as white arrow with pulsing blue aura hit youkai.
- With Kagome -
Kagome cried "Ike!" and released her arrow. To her surprise, it didn't glow with a pink miko energy like always, but with sea-blue aura that left nothing but spot of dirt as fast as it touched demon's body. Kagome dropped her bow and run to the female youkai. "Are you okay?" she asked from her. Female looked up in Kagome's face. "Why are you helping us?... You're a miko, don't you?" – this question was almost wisped. "Yes, I am. But I don't like to see people hurt" answered young miko.
"You are different…Miko's taught to hate us…"
"That's why I don't like most of them. I believe that everybody could have another chance. Both youkai and human. Can you get up? I'll try to heal your wounds" Kagome pulled her arm to help Sara stand up, but she refused. "I wouldn't live to the next day". "Don't say so, mother!" yelled Sesshomaru, who was silent all time during Kagome's and Sara's conversation "you won't die!". Little youkai didn't even noticed tears that was rolling down his cheeks. "Please miko-san, take him to the Western Lands, to his father, Inu Taisho. He shouldn't be alone. He needs a father" asked Sara. "I promise that I will get him home in safety" promised Kagome. "Thank you…" with this words Sara laid her head down. Kagome kneeled down. Sara wasn't breathing. She was dead. "No! Okaasan!" cried Sesshomaru and leaned to his mother body and even more tears flow from his eyes. Kagome wasn't stopping him. She knew how it felt because she lost her father in around the same edge. She was around 10 when her father died.
- Sendoku Jidai. With Inuyasha-
"Where the hell is that bitch?!" yelled very angry Inuyasha. It was more than hour after sunrise and wench wasn't at the camp! "Well, maybe she's at the hot spring?" asked Sango. "The hell she is! Her scent is old even at the camp! She must have run away!". "Inuyasha" said Shippo quietly "When you returned to the camp, you smelled of earth and bones. You was with Kikyo, don't you?". "What can you know, runt?" snapped inu-hanyou. "Don't you know?! Kagome LOVED you, and you just hang around with that DEAD whore!" said Miroku. "Feh" was Inuyasha's only reply.
- With Kagome -
Kagome carried sleeping Sesshomaru. Poor guy fall asleep right beside his mother's body. Miko was going to take him home as she promised. But at first… A sea blue aura surrounded Kagome as she put a barrier around Sara's body. 'Now only ones who know you will see you' she thought. This barrier would stop time for Sara's death. She would stay like this until she was found. Little miko sighed. 'I hope Sango and Miroku are alright. And Shippo…' Kagome's eyes darkened. She really missed her kit. 'But still, I need to get this guy home' she thought with a little smile. If he ever knew what he will like in the future Sendoku Jidai…
- Two hours later -
Kagome stopped and looked around. If she remembered correctly, there was a hot spring near by. Sesshomaru, who was sleeping all the way stiffened and awaked. He looked up at Kagome and jumped to the ground but as his feet touched ground he fell because of the sudden wave of pain. That miko girl rushed to him and took him in her arms again. "You shouldn't walk. Your wounds are not healed yet" she said. "You're miko that killed that youkai?" asked Sesshomaru. Girl nodded. "Thank you" he said. Kagome looked at him with amusement in her eyes. "Thank you" he repeated "You helped my mother and me. I thought that mikos only kills our kind". Kagome nodded. "Yes, most of us is. But I don't like to see somebody hurtled as I said to your mother". The eyes of little youkai darkened. Kagome noticed it. "Don't cry" she said "I lost my father around the same edge as you, too". Sesshomaru gave her a questioning gaze. "You do?" he asked. Again, miko nodded.
"How? Did he was killed by youkai like my mother?"
"No, he get an illness that couldn't be cured and it slowly killed him" Kagome looked ahead "There a hot spring ahead of us. We need to clean your wounds".
