Chapter 10 Inuyasha goes after Kagome
By the time Inuyasha reached Sesshomaru's place, Kagome and Sesshomaru were long gone. "Damn it!" He shouted. He sniffed the air and immediately caught Kagome's scent again. 'Good.' He thought. Her scent is still fresh! They haven't gotten far. I'll meet up with big brother soon and kick his ass!' Grinning he sped off leaving a trail of dust flying about behind him.

"Lord Sesshomaru?" Kagome began, holding a sleeping Rin in her arms. Rin's head was resting on Kagome's shoulder and her arms were wrapped around her neck.
"What." He spat.
"Sorry if I'm bothering you. But where are we going?"
"I have important business to take care of."
"I know that, but what kind of business? Why? Where are we going exactly?"
"That is none of your concern! All you need to know is I have business to take care of and you are her to take care of Rin!" He yelled and woke up Rin.
Thinking it was better to not anger him more Kagome shut her mouth. She set Rin down on her feet and took her hand, and continued to follow Sesshomaru.

Inuyasha was getting closer and closer to Kagome as the minutes rolled by. He sniffed the air one more time. Her scent was stronger and she seemed to be okay. HE began to pick up speed jumping from tree to tree as he went. "I'm coming Kagome!"
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Kagome and Sesshomaru hours later
It was getting dark and Kagome was beginning to get tired. Rin was dragging her feet and could barely keep up anymore.
"Lord Sesshomaru?" began Kagome, "I think we should stop here for the night. I'm tired and poor Rin can barely walk anymore."
"Fine, but only for a few hours. We need to keep moving."
"Thank you." She said flashing him a smile that made his heart skip a beat. It surprised him just how innocent she seemed to be at times.
"Kagome, can you tell me a story?" asked Rin in a small voice.
"Sure! I'd love too! A long, Long time ago their lived a….."
Sesshomaru sat leaning against a tree just watching. She spoke in a soft voice that seemed to lull Rin to sleep. Soon Rin's eyes drooped and when Kagome was certain she was asleep she laid her down gently and covered her in a blanket from her bag.
"Sesshomaru?" Kagome began trying not to look him in the eyes, "How long is this trip going to take? Because I really need to get back to my friends as soon as I can."
"It'll only take a couple of days as the most."
"Oh okay." Kagome yawned and leaned back into the tree behind her. Minutes later she drifted off to sleep.
Sesshomaru continued to stare at her as she slept. Now that he was able to get a better look at her, he noticed she was really quite beautiful.
A few hours later Sesshomaru shook Kagome awake. "Come on! We have got to get moving, Inuyasha almost here! Get Rin."
Kagome quickly gathered Rin in her arms. "But Sesshomaru! I can't run from Inuyasha! In fact I won't!"
"Then I will carry you!" and with that he picked her up, with Rin still in her arms, bridal style. He then ran off.
Kagome glanced over Sesshomaru's shoulder, but couldn't see anything. Everything was a blur. Everything seemed to blend together as one. She really didn't like being away from Inuyasha, and couldn't wait until this was over. Sesshomaru continued running for hours until her was satisfied he had lost his brother and stopped. He had stopped in a clearing and set Kagome and the now wide awake Rin.
"We'll stop here for now. I want you to cast a scent masking spell now Kagome." Ordered the great inu youkai
Sadly Kagome obeyed his order. Once she completed the task she pulled some sandwiches from her back. She handed one to Rin who looked at it quizzically before taking a huge bite. Taking one for herself she then asked Sesshomaru if he would like one.
"No," He said.

Inuyasha was pissed. Sesshomaru ran like a coward, just when he had gotten close! Now he couldn't find them anywhere! Their scents just ended abruptly. 'He must have ordered Kagome to cast a spell!' he thought.
He continued his search getting farther and farther away from Kagome.

I know this one is short. I'm sorry about that. Please R&R!
