A/N: I'm back from the dead…
REPLIES TO REVIEWS:
Seven Treasures: Hehe, about mentioning Korea, I am Korean. I was wondering if anyone would notice. To point out, one of my reviewers called me by my Korean name. And I have watched 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'. I'm also doing Taekwondo. And I kind of created the government. In school, we were learning about the American government, so it's based off of that.
Kyung-eun: YOU SPELLED MY NAME WRONG!
Bun-chan529: I shall keep writing. (Also because if I don't, several 6th graders I know will kill me…) (Glares at sister and her friend.)
JadeStarDragon: I woke up this morning only to hear you screaming and yelling. I'm just going to ignore you…
Mo Mo: Thank you.
Fantastical Queen Ebony Black: Makes sense. Thank you for your criticism.
animeluvur: I'm going to take Japanese! Wheee!
Kirara242: When is your birthday?
Thank you to anyone else to read the previous chapters but didn't review!
Disclaimer: I doubt that Takahashi did a report on herself in the 7th grade…
Koodori Joshuu
Chapter 3
Something Uncompleted
The two immortals were looking down at the scene below them. It was all too familiar to them. The goddess smiled at them while the god frowned. 500 years seemed like yesterday.
Kagura was about to join the fight when she remembered she had no proof of who she was really. Wait, she did. Everybody of noble birth was issued a pendent, which the commoners did not know of… So that wouldn't work. She scanned the crowd looking for a familiar face and saw none apart from Sesshomaru's. 'Well, I'll just face the consequences later.' With that, she flew in and fought. The man had a sword, there was a girl on the ground whom he was beating up. She brought out a fan and slashed at the man's hand, causing him to drop the sword. She swung her leg and kicked the man in the stomach, causing him to bend over, she got close and put the man's own sword at his neck.
"Don't move", she hissed, "What are you doing?"
The man would not answer.
"State your business."
This time he answered. He laughed. "What's a commoner like you doing something to me. Huh? Don't you know, I'm the police swordsman, and I can do whatever I would like."
Kagura brought the sword closer. "There are laws that forbid people to hurt others unless in self-defense. That girl has nothing but bruises on her."
"So what are you going to do, girl. They won't listen to you at the courts, I hold more weight then you do to their eyes."
"Enough", a new voice spoke, "Sesshomaru, take the girl and leave, Kagura, take the sword away from the man's neck." Sesshomaru's father was going for a walk when he had noticed a crowd and went to check it out. "State your situation, Lady Kagura," that made the man's eyes grow wide and whispers started.
"While going back to my quarters, I noticed a fight."
"Lies!" The man spat, "Lies!"
"What do you mean lies! You were beating up that girl who kept attempting to fight back! You broke a law and you abused your position to take advantage to the situation!" She wasn't happy, "In fact. if I didn't know any better, I'd say that girl was a slave!"
The crowd had backed off slightly, the public knew of Kagura's temper, not a fun thing to witness.
"I will take my leave." She straightened herself and walked away.
"She's a lot like you," the god stated, "small wonder why you choose her."
"He's a lot like you," the goddess smiled, "the two of you hate to smile."
Kagura walked around aimlessly. There was so much in this state that was horrible. From what that man had said, only those who had a title was worth anything in society. How stupid. At the rate she was finding things out, she would have to do some research on this place. Her thoughts strayed to the girl that was beaten up. What was going to happen to her now? She walked into her room only to find the girl and Sesshomaru waiting for her. How convenient.
"Who gave you permission to enter?"
"I come and go as I please. It is none of your business."
Kagura's fingers twitched. How she longed to throw something at the moment, or to yell. "The girl how is she?" Yes, changing the topic would be a good idea.
"She will not talk. All the injuries she has are bruises though. Most of them, the healer said, are painful and will take time to heal."
She looked at the girl. Her hair was tied, and she was now wearing an orange and white kimono. The many bruises colored her face, but when she looked up at Kagura, she smiled. Kagura gave a little smile of her own.
"Come, we'll go and eat." The girl looked really happy. She looked like she could use a decent meal.
"Maybe," the goddess murmured, "that she and he might be able to finish what we weren't able to finish." The god looked up in shock upon hearing what she said, but kept to himself.
A/N: Sorry for taking forever. You may blame my sister, Jadestardragon, and her friend, SapphireSprite. They kicked me off the computer last weekend when I was going to update. Also sorry for the short chapter...
Notes: I hate this chapter. I'm someday going to rewrite this chapter and make it make more sense to me. Sorry if the characters are a bit OOC.
