You and you alone can save me

My savior

By: Kuraii-chan

Kuraii-chan: And here we are at chapter 15! ::dances:: I'm happy so many people like this story!

Seika: Why don't as many like WIRY? ::blinks::

Kuraii-chan: I dunno. ::shrugs:: I personally like it.

Author Notes: My lovely reviewer 'an' brings up a good point!

One question.If Kyo is gay, why did he blush when Kagome hugged him,play that keep-Kagome-away-from-Sesshomaru game,and seems to stutter sometimes when he's around guess who, Kagome? Good story otherwise.

Well you see my reasoning is that Kyo can be rather shy when you get to know him, and being around her somehow just has that effect on him. (Sort of like Clark from Smallville, except I haven't come up with a good reason why he is that way just yet) As for the game? It was a perfect chance to "upset" Sesshy was it not? And who wouldn't want to just annoy the sexy evil demon lord without there being the chance of him killing you on the spot?

My outlook on it anyways!

And before I forget, any random sections of italics ARE FLASHBACKS. I hope this won't confuse anyone.

So, on with the chapter!

Kagome

"Go." He whispered.

"Tell me your name first!" Kagome answered as she was suddenly pulled up into the sky by an invisible force.

"Tsukasa." He answered just before she was dragged into a cloud. Looking around frantically she wondered just how she would get back to Life, and into her body.

She didn't have to wonder long though because she was soon shocked with an even more intense and bright light and searing pain spread throughout her body, quickly alerting Kagome that she was finally back.

Sesshomaru gazed down at the battered and bruised girl before and felt a small wave of, compassion?

"Again." Whispered Hotohori. He could feel Kagome's soul returning from whence it had been hiding.

Casting a blank and doubting look his way Sesshomaru nodded.

"Kagome." He whispered softly, "Come back."

Unable to refrain from doing so he reached one hand forward and gently brushed back the chocolate locks from her eyes. Daring the damned alluring blue-gray orbs to open and stare back at him.

And they did just that.

The thick black lashes fluttered softly against her cheek before fully opening and allowing the ningen to blink unsteadily and try to focus on something, anything.

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked coarsely her eyes finally settling on the Taiyoukai.

"Sesshomaru." Hotohori looked solemnly at him. "She needs you."

"Me?" he asked, looking rather affronted. Allowing his mask to slip for a few seconds.

"Hai Milord. You."

"Why not me?!" Kouga cried out suddenly. "I'm sure I can do anything better than that pretty boy! Just tell me what to do!"

"Iie." Was the sharp reply. "It must be Sesshomaru."

"Why him?" protested the Wolf.

"Because he is the only one who can save her. Bring her back from where her soul has drifted off to."

"What do I need to do?" asked Sesshomaru gazing down at Kagome.

"Take her hand Milord."

Wrapping his left hand and around her cold right one he looked up at the doctor expectantly, awaiting further instruction.

"And now, call her name."

Kouga sulked silently in the background, watching the scene with the attentiveness of a hawk.

Sesshomaru whispered softly, "Kagome?"

You and you alone can save me, came a voice that sounded suspiciously like Kagome's, and yet it couldn't have been. Could it?

Ouchieeeee...

"Kagome!" cried someone happily. ... Kouga?

"Kouga-kun?" she whispered in that same cracked and dry voice.

He whipped over and grasping her left hand he began to talk. "Oh Kagome thank Kami-sama that you are alright! When I found you out there in that field and in such a state I was worried sick that that damned Mutt-face had something to do with it-"

And he did. Kagome added silently

"-But there was no trace on your clothing! All I could make out was the scent of Sesshomaru here." He jerked a thumb at the Demon Lord who was currently glaring daggers at the wolf, nearly letting out a protective growl.

"You couldn't smell Kyo-kun?" she asked faintly, she had hugged him after all...

"Kyo?" Kouga looked dumbfounded. "You mean the neko guard? Ice Prince number two?"

Ice Prince...?

"No. The rain and mud must' a covered it up." That made sense, she had only hugged him for a few seconds and that couldn't have left a strong scent. It could have easily been covered by something else.

Kouga shook off his confused look and recaptured the miko's attention.

"I'll never let you out of my sight again Kagome! How did this happen anyways?" an odd hurt and closed expression drifted and settled itself on her features and Kouga continued hastily, "You don't have to answer! Ignore me and my stupid questions!"

Hotohori cleared his throat, demanding attention. "Lady Kagome? It is good to see you back, but I had hoped it would have been on better conditions." He bowed lightly.

"Hori-chan!" Kagome half-cried but her voice cracked halfway through and lead to a coughing fit.

"Lady Kagome!" Hotohori rushed forward only to watch Sesshomaru softly pat Kagome's back.

Kouga sped off and returned a few seconds later with a glass of water, though how he knew where to find it was anyone's guess.

Kagome took the glass and took a few tentative sips. "Thank you Kouga-kun, Sesshomaru." She nodded her gratitude and handed the glass back to Kouga.

Sesshomaru was rubbing absent circles on Kagome's back, and she found the movement amazingly relaxing.

"Mmhmnm." She whispered before immediately drifting into a peaceful sleep.

"Let her rest." The Taiyoukai ordered quietly as he propped her up ever so slightly. Of course what she did next was only to be expected.

She latched onto his arm with her death grip and no matter how much he tried Sesshomaru could not free himself without harming Kagome in any way.

"Milord?" Hotohori called out with a faint smile as he and Kouga reached the sliding door.

"I'll be there..." what could he say? That this girl was clinging to him for dear life? "In just a moment."

"All right." Hotohori winked and happily escorted a grumbling Kouga out before closing the door behind them.

Kagome sighed, a sound of happiness, "Sesshomaru..."

The Taiyoukai froze.

Was she... dreaming of him?

She whimpered. "Please..."

Please?

"Don't-"she whimpered again, though this time more softly, "Don't leave me."

Sesshomaru smiled softly, idly wondering if he was getting too soft.

"Please?" Kagome squirmed and clung ever tighter to his arm.

"I promise." He whispered to Kagome, "I won't leave you."

A delighted sigh, and her tossing stopped.

And then a carefree smile expressed itself and Kagome looked just as one could imagine and angel would. With a smile too easily formed that just seemed to make her glow and her hair fanned out behind her head Sesshomaru could easily imagine her to be a fallen angel despite the ugly cuts and bruises that marred her porcelain skin.

"I won't leave you," he repeated softly, slowly.

Kuraii-chan: Yes, yes, its rather short compared to my last chapter but I just had to get this out. I've just had this welled up feeling in my chest, seemingly screaming at me 'write the next chapter damn it!' and so I have.

Seika: And now we would like to attend to one reviewer who falsely thinks that Kuraii-chan has not responded to his reviews.
