Chapter 7: Setting Out

Standard disclaimer: don't own IY but Kasandra is mine.

Last Time:

Kagome nods, "Yea... I guess I never thought about that. Think Hojo might be Kouga's reincarnation?" "Possible. Should that be the case I want to see Sesshomaru's reincarnation to see if he's nearly as dreamy." Kagome and Sango both gasp, "Really Kas get him out of your head, he's an enemy." Kasandra just shrugs.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sesshoumaru smirks, 'So our little squirmish did have the desired effect on the vixen. Good.' Kagome, Kasandra and Sango all head back to Kaede's. Miroku is still sitting in the corner but now in meditation pose, Inu Yasha is sitting in the opposite corner staring into the flames of Kaede's cookfire deep in thought. (WOW Inu Yasha has deep thoughts Oo) Kagome, Sango and Kasandra enter the hut, Kagome and Sango immediately sit down deep inside but Kasandra settles in lotus position (indian style for you non-yoga minded people) just outside the door, once again on guard.

Inu Yasha sniffs the air subtly and rises. Kagome's eyes are downcast but Kasandra can distinctly smell the salt of Kagome's tears. Kasandra begins to growl softly, Inu Yasha looks at her confused but comes to a stop. "What?" "Where do you think you are going half-breed?" "To piss got a problem with it?" Kasandra snarls, "You imprudent little brat. Don't you dare attempt to lie to me. I can smell the dirt and gravesoil on the air and your scent just spiked with arousal. So don't even try to lie."

Inu Yasha swallows thickly and steps beside Kasandra and speaks very softly, "can we talk somewhere where there are no listening ears?" Kasandra nods and sticks her head into the hut, "I'll be back in a little while, Kags try and stay outta trouble." with a smile she steps back letting the bambo sheet fall back over the door. Kasandra and Inu Yasha walk to a hotspring that is nearby and both sit on the grass, "So what do you need Inu Yasha?"

"You know Kagome better then anyone. I want her for my mate but I can never get her alone long enough without someone interfering. Just now I was going to go retrieve the remainder of Kagome's soul from Kikyo, the arousal spike was unwanted, she does something to me and i can't control myself." Kasandra nods, "I understand that. My best advice is to just tell her how you feel. Bring her here and tell her, I will keep everyone else at Kaede's so there won't be any interuptions from them." Inu Yasha nods, "Thank you." Kasandra grins, "Just don't fuck it up. Oh by the way the wolf won't be coming after her again." Kasandra rises and leaves InuYasha completely confounded (O.o big words again).

Kasandra walks back to the hut by herself her mind preoccupied (O.o) with her "beautiful killer" so she doesn't register the blood red eyes watching her. Kagura turns tail and goes back to Naraku telling him what she had seen and heard about this new demoness...
