Chapter 3: Sesshomaru's Song

Kagome continued her walk through the forest that was weirdly silent that day. The birds were not singing, and there were no signs of forest animals anywhere. Again Kagome felt that feeling of something in the air, but this time it was something bad. There was pain in this feeling. The feeling as if fire were coursing through her veins, what was happening to this place?

The demon stood in front of a whole entire village. Everyone was dancing very fast, and suddenly they all combusted. Bursting into flame here and there. The demon smiled and laughed. All was going as planned, all he needed was a queen.

Sesshomaru watched Kagome as she walked through the forest. She was simply divine. Beauty wrapped in silk and then put away for no one to touch. But Sesshomaru wanted to touch it. To hold her in his arms and never let her go, that would be so sweet. Kagome was his secret lover. He didn't' know why she did this to him. He moved closer. Kagome must have heard him because she turned around suddenly, looking up into his golden eyes.

"Oh Sesshomaru, what are you doing here?"

"I could ask you the same thing human"

"I'm looking for a demon"

Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow. "Why?"

"Well um, have you burst into song lately?"

"Me, no. Rin has, she suddenly started singing about flowers and butterflies."

"Well something like that is happening all over. Follow me"

Sesshomaru followed her, looking down at the beautiful black hair she had. Before Sesshomaru knew it, they were at the edge of a town. The streets were filled with hustle and bustle of life. "What did you want me to see?"

"Over there, look" Kagome pointed at a restaurant.

A man and his wife were reading the menu outside. Suddenly the father burst into song.

"They have the crab special tooooodaaaayy!"

The daughter looked up.

"I think I will have the Gokuuuu riiiiiice!"

"That's strange" Sesshomaru said, blinking.

"There's something that's causing this, and I went to go find what it was."

Kagome looked up at Sesshomaru. He was staring at her face.

"What? Do I have something on my face? OH MY GOSH is it a zit!"

Sesshomaru smiled and turned around.

"What is it?" Kagome followed him.

They walked for a while in silence. Soon they came to a gigantic waterfall. Its water was like liquid diamonds, and the scenery around it was simply breath taking.

"Wow, I've never seen this place before."

"That's because I own it. No one ever comes near here."

"How do you know?"

"My own bit of magic."

Then suddenly to Kagome surprise, Sesshomaru started to slip off his clothes. First starting with the bodice, and swords, then his ACTUAL clothes.

"Um, should I go?"

"No please stay"

"Uh…"

Sesshomaru slipped into the water, his fluffy tail covering his mid section. "Please join me"

Kagome gaped. Was Sesshomaru asking her to swim with him, NAKED!

"I don't know Sesshomaru"

"Please, I insist"

"Uh, Um, Err"

His fluffy tail shot out and wrapped around her. It brought her to him, and into an embracing kiss.

Kagome's eyes went wide and her body tensed up. And then she relaxed, letting him kiss her. Kagome finally found love for him inside herself. They slowly slipped into the water.

Chapter 3: Part 2

It was nighttime and Sesshomaru had taken Kagome to his home. She now lay on a silk white bed, looking out the wide window, and out into the stars.

Sesshomaru walked up to the side of the bed.

"Hello" Kagome smiled.

Sesshomaru embraced her in a hug.

"Sesshomaru I, Inuyasha wouldn't like this"

"Shhh" Sesshomaru put his finger to her lips.

"I died inside
So many years ago
but you can make me feel
like it isn't so
and why you come to be with me
I think I finally know

You're scared
Ashamed of what you feel
And you can't tell the ones you love
You know they couldn't deal
Whisper in a dead man's ear
It doesn't make it real
That's great

But I don't wanna play
'Cause being with you touches me
More than I can say
And since I'm only demon to you
I'm saying stay away and
Let me rest in peace"

Sesshomaru got up and walked to the window, looking out at the western lands.

"Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
in a hole 6-foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my, sweet release
so let me rest in peace

You know,
You got a willing slave
And You just love to play the thought
That you might misbehave
But Till you do,
I'm telling you
Stop visiting my grave
Let me rest in peace"

"Sesshomaru I"

I know I should go
But I follow you like a man possessed
There's a traitor here beneath my breast
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed
If my heart could beat, it would break my chest
but I can see you're unimpressed
So leave me be and

Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole 6-foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
Let me rest in peace
Why won't you
Let me rest in peace?"

With the last note Sesshomaru jumped out of the window and took off across the land.

What had Sesshomaru's song meant? Let him rest in peace? Did He want her out of his mind so he can sleep? Kagome didn't know. Kagome slipped her clothes on and left the beautiful palace, her head bowed as she walked.
