Chapter 5: Some Answers

Kagome awoke with a little headache, and groaned. Her pillows scented of fresh clothes; had her mother changed the sheets? She soon realized she was lying in the bed of white, when she knew her bed was pink. She stood up, and saw a room which was ten thousand times neater than hers, which she knew wasn't hers. And this room was strangely cold, even though every warm thread of golden light spread on her body.

"Are you awake?" A cold voice barely whispered as a croak. When Kagome turned around, there he was again, the boy in her sweet daydreams and memories. Kagome groaned in the pressure that she put on upon her curiosity. She couldn't help but to start asking questions. For a socializer like Kagome, the questions were unbearable.

"Why do you know about the necklace? Why did you ran away then? Why am I here? Why--" Kagome started to spill, and Sesshomaru held out a hand in meaning of a little recess between her questions. He walked toward her, and took something from his own neck. it was a similar necklace to Kagome's, only that it's the remaining part of the moon, cascaded by the shadow.

"That's..."

"You are correct. It is the remaining part of the necklace." He said cooly, his voice keeping an even tone. He took Kagome's hand and put the glittering belonging. Kagome flinched when his cold fingers reached her. He nimbly drew back quickly, noticing her uncomfortableness. He brushed the silver bangs aside of which that were in his view. Kagome found it surprising that the Kagome's necklace and his were one combined.

He took his part back softly, clasping into his hand. He found Kagome staring admiringly at him, flushing. He let out a soft, meaningless chuckel. Then he felt a tug on his sleeve. Kagome was tugging on him like a little girl. When he looked down, she carefully asked again. "Why am I here and where am I?"

"This is my house, and you fainted... remember?"

She remebered being taunted by some hentai, and that somebody with white hair landing beside her. "That was you! Oh, god! I'm so sorry!" And she seemed to remeber something, and looked at Sesshomaru with questioning eyes. "You ... didn't do anything weird to me, did you?"

"If you define weird as 'putting a strange girl in my bed to sleep there', yes. The other part, no, because I have no interest in females."

"Phew..."

"...?" He gave her a questioning look, and looked out the window. When he found someone out the window,he growled, and ran out the room."Eh...?" Kagome said. Sesshomaru ran down the stairs, never tripping on his steps. He flung open the door, and kicked someone who was outside. It was all so fast, it was like watching a movie about lightenings.

Soon after when Kagome ran down also and was greeted by Eisenkai, Sesshomaru's elder brother(whom she guessed), she saw someone with same whitish-silver hair, but this one without silver glitter. He was cursing and was struggling to get out of Sesshomaru's grip. When Kagome saw him, she yelled out his name. "INUYASHA!"

Sesshomaru glared at her. She felt a chill running down her spine when she met his freezing gaze. He kicked Inuyasha again, nocking him unconscious. Then he jumped off him, to his elder brother's side. He was still grimacing. "Oh, my, Inuyasha-kun, are you all right?" He ran to his half-brother's side. He made a sad, but lecturing face to Sesshomaru, who but turned his gaze.

"I'm fine, Eisenkai." He spat. Sesshomaru left a glance at Kagome and inuyahsa, and went inside the house. "Sesshomaru... urr, senpai." Kagome followed Sesshomaru inside, and found him leaning on a dark corner of the house. His golden orbs glittered with something like tears. "Hey... are you crying?" Sesshomaru turned his gaze away, and Kagome could not say anything. When he regained his balance, he sighed.

"Now my troublesome brother is back... " He sighed again, " we won't be so quiet again." He turned around and gazed at Kagome. Kagome smiled suddenly without reason, and she saw corner of his mouth twitch.

"And now," he said, an evil grin appearing on his face, " it's my turn to ask."

"So... you just moved here?" I asked, and she just nodded, smiling. No words included, hm? I turned my head at Higurashi-san's touch of my hair. She was looking at it admiringly, and let go of it as soon as my gaze hit hers. She smiled apologizingly, and entwined her finger with her long tresses. I took my own hair, and stared at it. Somehow... I thought. Somehow she and I have a strange connection...

"Are you done?" She asked. Her eyes were filled with curiosity, and I shook my head no. "Well, then." She said, standing up. "I will tell you more tomorrow. Tomorrow is schoolday, remember?" Oh. I nodded, and smiled slightly at her funny face. She tapped my shoulder two times, and started walking out the door. An idea just popped up in my head.

"Higurashi-san," I reached for my coat, "it's late; I will walk you."

So we ended up walking together to her house. Then when we got there, I saw a girl with long hair like Higurashi-san's...I mean, Kagome's... as she taught me to call her. Kagome called her 'Sango', and she ran to the 'Sango'. Two talked for a minute, and squealed. Sango looked at me, and her smile suddenly faded; I was like an unexpected guest, a borrowed rice sack.

She whispered to Kagome, and Kagome answered something cheerfully. Then she bid her valediction to me and Sango. I turned, and headed for home. Cold early spring breeze brushed against my cheek with the silver tresses. Sparrows danced so freely up in the air. Would I be free of touting and hatred if I were one?

I headed for my home.

Kagome fell on her pink bed, and rubbed her face on it. "It's so good to be on you, bed" She yawned. She yanked back her jacket and threw it onto the desk. Sleep was coming to her earlier than usual. It may be because of the unusual trip that she took. "I wonder what questions he will ask me tomorrow..." She yawned again, and fell into a delicious slumber.

We part now, now at this night under the bright moon,

our hands clasping together in valediction.

What will I do when everyone joyously celebrate the sakura

with their families and lovers... whom I am without.

What shall I do?

A/N hello, this is Sansy. enjoyed yourselves?Oh, yeah, andreally, Sesshomaru didn't do anything to Kagome except to put her in his bed. " a borrowed rice sack" is an old saying in Korea, and it means something that does not belong. Yeah, you'd probably ask why he was a borrowed sack, Sesshy was, because he was taunted too much, he was like a cliche, a forgotten person, a frea...k... '-';; well, we can go on and on. But still, it's not that I hate him, (which I don't... he is my fav. character) but it's something that is needed to form a relationship between these two. And somebody complained.. or just said that inuyasha appeared. Yes, he did, and he is totally going to mess up the relationship between them. Well, you know, there's a pronoun in Korea (yep, I talk about it all the time) that says, 'the ground hardens after a rain' and it means that the relationship between two will be more strongly bonded after something difficult that they experienced together. And yeah, I know, why would he want to interfere? Hell-oh, can't you see the genre? Angst and Romance. Angst is what I want to put in inuyasha's troubles in. Plain Romance is just too fancy. Arigato for reading all my reviews and Ja ne!
