Moonlight Shadow
Chapter 3
She opened the door, but no one was there, she heard someone clearing their throat. Kagome looked down a small toad demon stood there, looking up at her and gripping tightly to his two-headed staff.
"Yes, what do you want, demon?" Kagome inquired her hand on her hip as she leaned
against the large wooden door.
"Impudent Human, I am Lord Sesshomaru's right hand demon! My name is Jaken!" The little toad replied.
"Well, Jaken, my name is NOT Impudent Human. My name is Kagome, no more, no less."
"Well, Lord Sesshomaru is waiting for you in the garden, so get cleaned up." With that said, Jaken left Kagome shocked.
She abruptly closed the door and found a beautiful kimono that was almost an exact replica of her priestess robes. The long sleeved kimono top was made of silk and was dark blue with silver crescent moons stitched into the lovely material. The skirt was a shade lighter than the top and had had no stitches whatsoever.
Kagome quickly dressed and quietly sneaked out of her room, wandering into the entrance hall. The hall had many portraits of the past taiyoukai rulers and their families. A large portrait caught her attention; she walked over to it and was mesmerized by the picture. A young Sesshomaru stood in the middle, his face had a peaceful look on it, he seemed really happy at the time. A young woman who had similar markings to that of Sesshomaru stood proudly behind him, her hand firmly on his shoulder. Next to her, stood a young man, his long silver locks matched his mate's and child's hair, but he kept it in a ponytail. They seemed happy, but what happened to the serene look in Sesshomaru's eyes?
Kagome heard footsteps coming from behind but she paid no mind to it. The footsteps stopped behind her, a voice began to whisper in her ear, "Miko, didn't I request your presence in my garden? I clearly remember ordering Jaken to inform you of this." Sesshomaru's husky voice sent chills down her spine. She took a couple of steps forward and swiftly turned around to face him.
"I tend to not do as I'm told. Besides I never asked to be here, you should have left me there. I don't need your kind of help. I know what you're trying to do and I won't have it!" She replied. Her blue eyes pierced the cold golden orbs staring at her. Her movements brought out a sense of déjà vu from Sesshomaru.
Flashback
A young boy no older than 12 ran into the study, a bouquet of wildflowers held behind his back. A young woman was standing in front of one of the many bookshelves in the study.
"Mommy, I have something to give you." The young boy said softly. The silver-haired woman turned around swiftly, with such elegance and grace. She smiled at her son. "Come here, Sessho, let me see."

"Sesshomaru, hello in there, Are you all right?" Kagome asked waving her hand in front of his face. He had been in this state for a bit and it was creepy how he stared at her.
Sesshomaru snapped out of his daze and grabbed Kagome's wrist before she could pull it away. She began to struggle, trying to get out of his grasp, but sighed in defeat before giving up. He finally released her wrist and made his way towards her until their noses were barely touching. Kagome could feel his breath on her face and turned her head away from him so they eyes didn't meet. Unfortunately for Kagome, She could feel his warm breath on her neck. She shivered at the warm breath on her neck.
Noticing this made Sesshomaru smirk. 'So she likes that huh? Well let's put her in her place then.' He thought. He placed his hand on the side of her neck, causing her to look him in the eye. He leaned in closer his lips a centimeter from hers. Kagome reflexively closed her eyes, causing Sesshomaru to smirk even more. He leaned in and quickly side swiped past her lips and began to whisper in her ear. "You'll be in the dining room in 15 minutes. Don't be late."
Kagome was bright red by now after Sesshomaru disappeared. She regained her calm stature and began to wander down the large hallways once more. She came to a large door, voices could be heard from the inside and walked thinking it was the dining room. It wasn't to her dismay, but the shelves held a massive amount of scrolls and large volumes of books that seemed to draw her in with their ancient beauty. A searing pain began to envelope her; she gasped in pain and looked up. The woman in the portrait she had seen stood before a look of anger was on her face and she began to yell at the hooded person.
"No you won't take, Sesshomaru away from me! He is never to know of my horrid mistakes. He isn't cut out for that type of life. I want him to take his father's place when he becomes of age!" The woman yelled.
"You promised your first born to the organization; we have worked too hard to let you ruin our plans, we'll need him in the future." The hooded person replied.
"You can only have him after he becomes ruler of the western lands; otherwise your hands will never claim his innocence, his kind nature."
The hooded person nodded in agreement.

The vision faded, leaving Kagome there leaning against one of the pillars in the room panting heavily.
Owari
Okay, now we're getting more into what went on between Sesshomaru's mother and the darkness, but they have a name besides the darkness and the organization, but that will be revealed soon enough.
By the way, I apologize for updating a little past the date I told some of you and what I set up for myself. Also, please review!
