Chapter Two
Disclaimer: What do you mean I don't own my underwear?
Kagome was sitting impatiently, twiddling with her thumbs. The ride had already been two hours…and she STILL wasn't there!
'Okay…I will go to sleep! Yes…that is perfect! That way time will fly and I will not get so impatient!' Kagome settled down on the uncomfortable seat and closed her eyes. She shifted from one position to the next…and to the next…and to the next…finally, she got comfortable.
'Ah…finally…peace…' she waited until sleep slowly took her into it's dark abyss.
"Miss, we're here!" yelled the coach. Kagome's eyes snapped open.
'How long have I been asleep?' The coach door opened, overwhelming her with the sunlight.
"Ack! The sun!"
"Oh…I'm sorry milady, I didn't know you had fallen asleep."
Kagome looked at him with forgiving eyes. "Don't worry. It was just a light sleep anyway."
The coach smiled. In all of his years (A/n about 500 years or so…), he had never met a princess who was so kind and compassionate to others. Not just the rich high-class snots, but also to the lesser folk. Whenever she had the time, she would go to the orphanage to see all of the poor children. She would read stories to them and bring them gifts. She also went to local farms and villages that had been raided by demons to help the older folk and farmers build houses and repair buildings.
"Hello, my name is Lord InuTashio! You must be Kagome!" Kagome liked him immediately. He had long silver hair, two purple strips on each cheek, and a maroon moon on his forehead. He had that aura that just said, "Hi! I like everyone, but if you cross the line…I'll kill you."
"Yes, hello! It's a pleasure to meet you!"
"Ah…a polite one I see. I like that."
Kagome blushed slightly. "Thank you. But I've got enough stubbornness in my pinky to make all of Japan go round." She grinned. InuTashio threw his head back and laughed.
"I like your sense of humor."
"Milord? Who is here?"
"Ah! Kagome, this is my wife, Izayoi. Izayoi, this is Kagome. She is Sesshomaru's bride."
"Ah! What a pleasure to meet you!"
"No, milady. The pleasure is all mine."
"Where is Sesshomaru? Why isn't he here to meet his new charming bride? Yazuki?"
"Yes Milord?"
"Fetch Sesshomaru! Tell him that his bride is here."
"Yes Milord."
"There is no need to do so." The sudden cold voice sent shivers down Kagome's spine.
"Sesshomaru! Meet your bride, Kagome. Kagome, this is my son Sesshomaru." Kagome bowed her head.
"Hello, Sesshomaru-sama. It is a pleasure to meet you."
"You are a human, no?"
"I'm sorry, will you repeat that?"
"Sesshomaru!" growled InuTashio warningly.
"You heard what I said wench! Now, tell me…are you not a human?'
"Sesshomaru! We already talked-" but Lord InuTashio was interrupted.
"I'm sorry! DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY RACE? YOU ARE A DEMON NO? HOW DARE YOU LOOK DOWN UPON ME JUST BECAUSE OF MY RACE? DO I LOOK DOWN UPON YOU JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE A DEMON? A GOOD RULER SHOULD ACCEPT ALL PEOPLE DESPITE THEIR RACE!" Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed. Within a second, Kagome was pushed to a tree with Sesshomaru's hand at her neck.
"SESSHOMARU!" Yelled InuTashio. "Let go of her!" But Sesshomaru chose to ignore his father and continued.
"Wench! You will respect me!" Kagome's eyes narrowed.
"I will not respect a bastard who refuses to respect me also!" She focused on her hands as they began to glow a pale pink aura. Then she put her hands to his chest and pushed him. He was caught of balance and he flew 10 feet away but landed gracefully on his feet. By the time Sesshomaru looked at Kagome, she had already gone to his parents.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to lose my anger. It's been an exhausting day." She bowed to her future in-laws. Her face was slightly red from the lack of oxygen and embarrassment. Her once neat bun (I mean the hair buns…not your bun, buns! Wow, that sounded incredibly wrong. Bun buns!) had several strands of hair sticking out of it. Izayoi and InuTashio just stood there, shocked. Izayoi was the first to recover from her shock.
"That's okay my dear. He had no right to put you down. I…we understand. Right dear?"
"Uh…yes! Of course! Sesshomaru, we will talk about this later."
"Please, may I be excused? I am rather tired." Asked Kagome.
"Of course, please follow me. I will show you to your rooms." Replied Izayoi.
"Thank you."
"Sesshomaru!"
"Yes, Father?"
"Don't use that tone with me! Follow me to my office."
It was a long walk there. All Sesshomaru would think about was that wench and how she crossed his temper and yet managed to come out in one piece.
An intriguing human.
"Sesshomaru! What was that back there?"
"She is a human."
"I already told you this! She will change when you permanently mark her as your mate. But that was no excuse to what you just did to her! I thought I taught you more about respect! I am this close to handing the throne to Inuyasha! At least he can manage to socialize with humans without tearing one apart! If you do not act civilized toward that girl, I will hand the throne to Inuyasha."
"Yes, Father."
"You are dismissed!" he roared.
Sesshomaru gave a slight bow and left the room without another word.
Writer's block…
Help! It will get much better! I swear! If I don't…you can take my…Sesshomaru key chain. (Available in two sizes!) (Wrong! WRONG! IMPURE! But I have to admit… it is a good impure thought!)
