A/N: Thanks for all the reviews and comments. And thanks to most of my fans out there I went back and changed the thing about Kanna being a fog demon and changed it to void. I was thinking of what demon she was but couldn't remember and just quickly scribbled fog for her demon. Both fog and void have the letter O in it. That's close enough right. I decided that I'm gonna stand with the Sessho having a tail thing. Sorry to disappoint a certain reader out there. Well here is the next chappie! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha okay! Sheesh! (You don't have to remind me) she mumbled.
Chappie 14 Yes, they're still shard hunting…Kagome sat back and watched as the fire blazed. She let the sound of the crackling and warmth lull her to sleep until she heard a faint snap of a twig. Sesshomaru appeared and dropped two dead hares in front of her. Kagome gasped as she heard the thud of them dropping to the ground. She cursed Sesshomaru with words that didn't even exist for scaring her, with the youkai's hearing he almost chuckled at the words she made up.
Kagome sat up and began skinning the hares with the dagger she had hidden in her sleeve. Sesshomaru looked curiously at the dagger. It was beautifully sculpted. The handle was a pearly white with small green gems that circled it's way up the handle. The iridescence of the pearly handle gave it a glow. As his gaze drew further up the dagger he noticed that the spear shaped metal that rested upon the handle was no more then five inches. The metal was shiny and had a few encrypted flower designs on it as well. There was nothing to describe the dagger but beautiful. Then all of a sudden it all came rushing back to him.
Flash Back:
After four years Sesshomaru headed back to his old home. The orphanage. For four long years most of the burned building was still clinging to life. He was fourteen at the time. Some of it stood while some of it still lay in a heap of burned ash. He looked up at the sunny sky as if it were mocking him and headed straight toward the orphanage. He stood a few feet away from the building and kneeled down on one knee. He pulled out something small and shiny that flashed in the light. It was pearly white and beautiful. He laid it down in front of the orphanage as if it were an offering.
One tear streamed down his cheek. And after all this time he promised not to let himself cry. There were so many things left unsaid to his love. She would have been 13 now if she were alive and they would have celebrated by staying up all night dancing and laughing. He sighed and quietly prayed, "Kami, watch over my dear Kagome. Kagome? If you can hear me now you wouldn't believe how I have changed, there are so many things that I could of said but didn't, it's all my fault that you are dead. I know it's not much but this is my dagger and I give it to you as an offering. It's beautiful isn't it? But nothing can match your beauty Kagome." With that Sesshomaru got up and walked away.
A pair of soft brown eyes have been watching the whole time. She stepped out of the bushes hiding her aura while the silver haired figure disappeared among the brushes. She knew who that was. It was her Sessho. Why she hid herself from him? She did not know. She felt that it wasn't their time to meet again. She knew that somewhere in the future they would meet again. For now she knelt down and picked up the weapon placed on the ground to honor her. She was not dead, so she hoped that her Sessho wouldn't mind if she took it since it was meant for her anyways. She will keep and cherish that dagger forever. She tucked it inside her shirt as she backed away from the scene as the figure came rushing back. She stilled her nervous aura and watched behind a tree.
"Shit! Where did it go! I left it here for Kagome; some filthy demon probably took it. Well I'll know better next time to leave a priceless thing like that out here again." She heard him huff and stomp away. She smiled to herself and walked the 2 miles back to the village she now lived in.
Present:
"Hmmmm…. So that's where it went." Sesshomaru said out loud.
"Where it went what?"
"That dagger you hold in your hand, you found it?"
"Uh…" Kagome blushed, "Yeah, sure… it's not like I stole it or anything." She said quickly.
"So this Sesshomaru assumes that you found it in front of an orphanage?"
"Uh... what! How'd you know?"
"This Sesshomaru remembers such a thing of beauty that his person once held."
"Caught me red handed huh?"
"Yes."
Kagome lunged herself at Sesshomaru and hugged him. A tear escaped her left eye. Sesshomaru brought up a finger and wiped it away and looked down at her.
"Sorry for taking it…"
"No need to apologize, it was meant for you."
At that Kagome began skinning the hares again and placed them over the fire to cook them. She scooted back from the fire and then waited for the food to cook itself. There was a long silence. Each person thinking about his or her own problems. Kagome was thinking about the jewel shards and how she feels towards Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru thinking about Kagome and whether she loves him back.
The food was cooked by now and Kagome ate what she could and Sesshomaru wolfed down his and most of Kagome's food, as she didn't eat much. The sun was setting now and they both decided to travel a bit more before putting up a camp. As they traveled Kagome's mind soon settled upon the thought of Kagura and whether or not to trust her. Kagome could see and feel the sense of urgency in Kagura's voice and eyes but was still entirely unsure since she is Naraku's child.
"Sesshomaru sama?"
"Yes."
"Kagura came and gave me a visit while you went out hunting."
"Who is Kagura?"
"She is the wind demon that carried Kikyou away."
When Kagome finished that sentence Sesshomaru slowed his pace to a walking. As the walking slowed he had Kagome slide off his back. He decided that the clearing they were in would make a good place to camp. Nothing can sneak up on them unnoticed in this vast plain.
"That demoness, she is dangerous, do not let her leave alive again." was all Sesshomaru said.
"But you don't understand she wants to help us." Kagome whined.
'
"She can't help us, she works for Naraku."
"Yes she does, but she wants to be free of him, she wants to help us get rid of him."
"And how are you sure this is not part of Naraku's plan Kagome?"
"If you were there with me you'd know that she was telling the truth. I can smell a lie if she told me one, so don't judge my ability to know the truth from the lie."
"…"
"She told me that she will come back in two days, that she is suppose to kidnap me and bring me to Naraku who might be planning on killing me."
Inside Sesshomaru was fuming. If this Kagura was really trying to help them and is trying to spare Kagome's life by giving her a heads up he should somewhat trust her word for it. That Naraku will not lay a finger on Kagome while he was alive. He decided that they should use Kagura.
"…"
"Sesshomaru sama? She told me that you must fight her with all your might but you must not kill her. She said that Naraku can watch us any where at anytime and he must not find out that she is helping us or else he will kill her, please Sesshomaru sama, will you please help her." Sesshomaru looked down at Kagome who was pouting.
Her pale bottom pink lip protruding out a bit. He bent down inching closer to her face. Kagome blushed when she felt his breath on her lips. She closed her eyes and heard Sesshomaru speak, "Fine." He moved in and placed a small-prolonged kiss on her lips. He can feel the heat rising on her cheeks on his own. He slid his hand to the back of her head holding it. He tilted it up a little to have more excess to her mouth as he slid his tongue in. Their tongues caressed each other's slick taste. Sesshomaru laid Kagome on the soft grass that covered the floor and was kneeling between her legs. Both his arms now rested by the side of her head. He moved his head a little farther down and nipped at her neck.
This was Kagome's sensitive spot and she moaned out in pleasure. The moan urged Sesshomaru on and he started tugging at her Kimono. Kagome's breathing rubbed her chest against Sesshomaru's and it excited him. He could feel the rush of his blood and passion that enveloped them. As he kissed her neck Kagome wrapped one of her legs around Sesshomaru's hip and pulled him down towards her. Sesshomaru was harder then a rock and could have entered her but the layer of clothing that was always on at the wrong moment frustrated him. He rubbed himself against her hot core and could smell her desire run up the walls. He pushed his waste against hers eager to satisfy his need but the clothing was in the way.
Kagome sucked in her breath as she felt a hard pressure against her sex. It was pushing into her and made her moan and go delirious with desire. She pushed back even harder and heard him growl in the back of his throat. She looked up to see his eyes tinted with red. She thought she better stop before this carried on to something she didn't want to do just yet. She wanted to fuck him but didn't think this was the time or place to do it. Not until she knew how she felt about him.
Kagome gently slid her hands under Sesshomaru's chest and pushed him back a little. Allowing herself some air she spoke up to Sesshomaru.
"Sesshomaru sama, get up."
Sesshomaru heard her words and reluctantly complied. He lingered a little longer in that position before he finally got up. The red slowly drained away from his eyes. He sat down next to her and pulled her into his lap. He started to nuzzle her neck and it made her giggle. Sesshomaru liked that she laughed and nuzzled her neck even harder and before he knew it, it had turned out to be full-blown laughter as he had her lying on the ground again, but this time he was… tickling her?
"SS Sessho m m ma maru s ss stop! Pl ple please!" she gasped for air. She couldn't breathe now. Tickling her has made her unable to think wisely. He did not stop the assault so she decided to assault him herself as she got angry with him for not stopping. The laughing had started to hurt her liver, kidneys and stomach. She kicked him were it counted and Sesshomaru's back constricted and he fell over clutching where Kagome knew she shouldn't have kicked. He growled angrily at her. He was over whelmed with anger, frustration, and confusion. Hadn't she enjoyed the fact that he was playing with her?
He sat up as the pain dulled and glared at her. She smiled back meekly and came over to sit in his lap again.
"Oh no you don't!" Sesshomaru thought.
When Kagome sat down between his legs he brought up his hand and shoved her back and she fell out. She landed on her side and turned her head around angrily. She frown and got up. She walked over to where he sat and kicked him in the back. She made sure that her heel dug into his pressure point. Sesshomaru let out a growl and got up. He towered over Kagome and she almost shrank back, if it were not for her stubborn nature she would have ran away by now. Sesshomaru shoved her again and she kicked him again. It went on like that for an hour tops until both were just to exhausted and collapsed to the ground in a much-needed sleep.
