Summary: She's a troubled girl when she saw her two friends betray her in a way she could never imagine. She's cold, stoic, distant, and numb. She became a cutter to take away all the pain away. He came along and showed her to love again. But when the man she used to love came for her, what will happen now? (Song fic) (not a one-shot) Sess/Kag

Chapter two:
I'm with You
Kagome walked into the middle of the forest as she saw a pond. She just sat on the shore and enjoyed the view. She took out a razor blade from her backpack, which she brought to open something, and cut her left wrist. Blood slowly came out flowing to the side, and falling on the floor.
'I want to cry, but nothing comes out. I don't feel anything, what have I become?' She thought as she watched the blood, not caring if any demon found her and kills her right on the spot. She really didn't care anymore.
'I feel a pain, but it won't show. The pain of betrayal just left a mark on me, one that will never show, for it is in my heart.' Kagome thought as she just stared at her cut again. She cleaned up the blood and cut herself again, on her right hand. Seeing the blood flow from her cut, to the floor, reminded her of tears…Tears of blood.
If she couldn't cry, she would do so, by blood. Kagome just stared at here wrists, with a little smirk haunting her face. She had taken some pain away, but not a lot. In a way, she felt relief. In another, she didn't feel at all.
"E-everything, is a, l-lie." She whispered out. Closing her eyes, she felt her cheeks were wet. She couldn't be crying, so she opened her eyes, seeing rain falling everywhere. She just sat there, not bothering to move herself.
"Why are where without my little brother, wench?" an emotionless voice came piercing from the forest. Kagome just kept staring forward.
"I don't know Sesshomaru-sama, maybe you should ask someone who could care. I just want to sit here. Why are you here?" Kagome asked, in a voice, full of nothing, emptiness.
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow. "I came here for my brother's blade, and I smelled blood around her. I decided to check it out." Sesshomaru said coldly.
Kagome turned around and faced him. She felt cold and wet from the rain, and she was pale. "Aren't you Inuyasha's wench?" he asked her after seeing her pale face.
Kagome laughed a bitter laugh. "Yeah right, I am not his wench, just a shard detector. And I personally don't think he'll see me in any other way."
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow. This girl was acting pretty weirder than he remembered. For one thing, she wasn't happy.
Suddenly Kagome passed out from the coldness. Sesshomaru sighed. What was he suppose to do now? Take her with him or just leave her there. 'Don't be so cold Sesshomaru. Take her with you…' a voice said to him.
'Who are you?' Sesshomaru thought.
'I am you. Your inner self. Conscious.' The voice said.
Sesshomaru growled. 'You haven't spoken to me for a while. Go away now.'
The voice laughed, 'Do what you think is right. Don't be so uptight all the time.'
He picked Kagome up and carried her bridal style and headed back to his castle with his demonic speed. In a matter of minutes, they were at his huge castle.
Sesshomaru kicked open the door and walked in. "Lord Sesshomaru!" A toad like demon named Jaken came running toward his master and bowed down in respect. He hastily got up and Sesshomaru said in his monotone voice, "Jaken, prepare an extra room."
Jaken's eyes went huge. This was a mortal he was talking about. "Yes Lord Sesshomaru!" He cried in his weird croaky voice, as he ran off to tell a maid to do his job.
Once a nice room was prepared (right next to Sesshomaru's room) he gently placed Kagome on the bed and left the room, thinking that he will regret it when she woke up.
Apparently 2 days later
Kagome's eyelids fluttered open as she tried to sit up. "My head feels so heavy." She mumbled. Once her vision cleared up, she saw the room she was in.
The room had grey brick walls, a futon (large one with Kagome on top), and a crimson circle rug on the middle of the bare floor. "Ah, so you're finally awake." A calm, young female voice said to her.
Kagome slowly turned her head and came face to face with a young lady. "Who are you?" Kagome asked. The lady smiled and lightly pushed Kagome back into the bed. "Rest child. My name is Katsumi, and I am a miko, like you. I was summoned by Lord Sesshomaru to aid you when you were ill." The lady identified as Katsumi said with her calm voice.
Kagome nodded as Katsumi walked toward a table and took out a package. "I want you to put this on. In a few minutes, Lord Sesshomaru would like to see you." Katsumi said as she placed the package in Kagome's hands.
Kagome gave a feeble smile as Katsumi walked out of the room to tell Lord Sesshomaru. Kagome opened the package gently and it revealed a red kimono with white and silver sakura petals around, along with a small silver dragon on the right hip. Her obi was black with red stripes on it.
Kagome put on the kimono which hugged her every curved. She slipped on the sandals which were also in the package and she slipped out of the room to find Sesshomaru.
"So woman, your finally awake I see." A cold voice said, sending shivers down to her spine. Kagome turned around, to be faced to face with Sesshomaru. Kagome bowed politely and said, "Thank you milord, for saving me. May I please return?"
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow. "No wench, you have two choices. Stay here and take care of Rin. Or I shall kill you here and now." He said in a cold voice.
"I have a name you know! It's KAGOME! Say it with me! KAG-O-ME!" She said angrily.
Sesshomaru ran over to her with his demonic speed, and held her neck. "Listen women, you are going to stay here with Rin whether you like it or not." He hissed. Kagome's face faltered as she tried to escape, with her energy, she nodded. He let go and she fell onto the cold floor, panting.
"You start tomorrow after breakfast." He said and then went right back into his room. Once Kagome had regained her breath, she too went back into her room. 'Why did he pick me up and instead of just leaving me in the forest for me too die?' She thought as she took out her CD player.
She lowered the volume a bit, so it would just be heard in the room. She pushed 'play' and a new song came on.
I'm Standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound
She needed someone with her. It was how it was like before she saw Sesshomaru. That's what the song is reminding her of.
Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I, I'm with you
I'm with you...
Kagome sang along, pouring what she felt into the song. It was like when they met and she passed out.
I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know
cause nothings going right
and everything's a mess
and no one likes to be alone
Kagome needed someone; she felt something, deep inside her, so deep, that she couldn't really feel it. She felt as if she could trust Sesshomaru more than Inuyasha.
Isn't anyone trying' to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Wont you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I, I'm with you
I'm with you
'I'm with you Sesshomaru; you found of me, before Inuyasha did.' Kagome thought as she stopped singing and paid attention to the rest of the song.
Oh why is everything so confusing
maybe I'm just out of my mind
yea yea yea
yea yea yea
yea yea yea
yeahhhh
'Yet, I still have feelings for Inuyasha…even if he and Sango both pulled my heart out and broke it.' Kagome thought back to when they betrayed her.
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Wont you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I, I'm with you
Take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I, I'm with you
I'm with you
Take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I, I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you...
Kagome stopped the CD and lay back down on her bed. 'I'm with you…Sesshomaru.' She thought subconsciously before falling asleep. Unknown to her, the great Lord Sesshomaru listened to her voice and the song. 'Her voice, so beautiful, yet it sounded so sad when she was singing.' He thought. He shook off that thought and continued his paperwork.
