Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or the rest of the Gang.
A/N: I just wanted to thank all of the people who took the time to review I am very happy now so here is a chapter for them.
Chapter Three: Confused Heart
Inuyasha and the rest of the gang were slowly making there way across Sengkou Jida to a town where a rumored jewel shard was. The Shikon no Tama was nearly complete Naraku had in his possession three quarters of the jewel shard, while the gang only had four shard pieces. They knew that Kohaku had one and Kouga had two. There were so few jewel shards left that it was making everyone's hair stand on end. The final battle was drawing near and Naraku was as powerful as ever. Although the Gang had also gotten stronger, they were unsure of how much power Naraku had absorbed from the Shikon no Tama.
"Inuyasha please let us stop we have been walking all day non-stop,"Inuyasha then glared at Kagome annoyed that she would even consider a break.
"NO, what if Naraku gets to the jewel shard before us? What then? He already has collected more then us, and YOU want to stop."
Miroku, who always seemed to be the peace maker, stepped in "Although you are right Inuyasha, what good will it do if we are all exhausted from traveling and do not have the strength to fight such a foe as Naraku?"
Inuyasha then "Fehed" and jumped in to the nearest tree. Kagome would have kissed the monk right then in there, but of course with him being a pervert and Sango being in love with the monk, she settled for one of her own disarming smiles.
"Hey Inuyasha do you know where a hot springs are?" with a Feh and a point of his hand Kagome gathered her bathing supplies. "Sango would you care to join me?"
"No thanks Kagome I took a bath yesterday, so I'll just start dinner."
With a shrug of her shoulder Kagome walked in the direction Inuyasha had pointed to. Kagome soon got lost in thought about the strange dreams she was having about Sesshomaru. She felt guilty because she was suppose to be in love with Inuyasha. 'Is that what I really want though, to forever be worried about who Inuyasha is thinking about when he looks at me? I am so confused how could I have feelings for a dream? The real Sesshomaru is so cold, distant, and heartless. Not only that he has tried to kill me.'
With a sigh Kagome continued her track to the hot springs. Finally coming across them she nearly squealed in delight as she watched the hot steam bubbled at the top of the water's surface. After stripping down to nothing Kagome was able to relax in the spring and allow her troubles to evaporate with the steam.
Dream
"My Lord, please, I must leave," Kagome was trembling before this Lord of the West he was an intimidating figure. Kagome could not move with his clawed finger beneath her chin. Kagome had never spoken to a youkai Lord before and was afraid she would displease him in some way.
"Princess why are you in such a hurry to leave this Sesshomaru?" Sesshomaru had stated this coldly taking her plea to leave as a sign of rejection and disgust. He wanted to mare her satiny skin just so that no other would want her. But he knew that even without her looks many a demon and humans, for that matter, would still want the power that she held so close to her soul.
"My Lord, please, do not take offense it's just that...I have never well...meet a demon of high birth and am afraid to displease you."
Sesshomaru smirked at her statement from the barrier that had been erected around the garden he should have known she did not have many visitors. "My little Miko, I would not hurt you."
Kagome blushed crimson at such a possessive statement from the Lord of the West. "My Lord I do not understand, you barely know me"
Sesshomaru could have laughed then but kept his stonic mask in place. ' So the king has not told her yet that she belongs to me.' Within the treaty the King sighed his daughter to Sesshomaru for protection, because he knew that against demons his people did not stand a chance. Sesshomaru did not know who the Princess was then, but he could not allow the Shikon no Tama to fall in the wrong hands. Now he knew he had gained the upper hand, with such a beauty, how could he go wrong. He them decided to play with her and keep the information from her. "This Sesshomaru does what he pleases."
Kagome slowly bowed her head unsure of this recent event.
End Dream
"KAGOME," Inuyasha had became worried when Kagome had taken to long in the spring. So he decide to go look for her. Only to find her asleep in the spring. Blushing furiously he slowly called out to her, she would not budge from her trance. He then became frantic runnign up to her he began to shake her screaming in her ear "KAGOME"
SMACK
"Oh Inuyasha I am sorry I didn't mean to, I was just dreaming is all."Kagome was embarrassed to say the least, there she was naked in the spring, for the world to see. "Inuyasha I am fine can you please go now."
"No, you'll probably end up falling asleep again," Inuyasha then looked up from the ground to Kagome, he should of know she would be pissed.
"SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT, Inuyasha don't you know anything about modesty." Kagome was really mad, to say the least, she liked having those dreams of Him but Inuyasha just had to screw it up.
After the spell wore off and Kagome was done getting dressed. Both walked back to camp in silence, both lost in there own thoughts.
'I wish I could stop having those dreams its like living a whole different life, it is so real that I sometimes don't want to wake up from them anymore. I wish the Sesshomaru of my dreams were real. Oh well just another hopeless girls fantasies...'
'Stupid wench always getting mad over the slightest things, she should not have fallen asleep. It is like I can't turn my back even for a second.'
