"Talk" Thought

---------------------------------------------------

She was an orphan for as long as she remembered. She knew nothing about her family, or where she came from. All she knew was her name. That was the only thing that she was sure about and knew it wasn't a lie.

Kagura.

It sounded nice and sharp at the same time. Yes, she was not to be messed with.

Three step, step, twirl, leg flex

She grew up in a poor neighborhood, where gunshots rang out every night. She supposed that made her strong. She didn't really care. She was about to make a name for herself, she decided that when she was old enough to think.

She was going to escape. Escape everything. Her landlord, Naraku that bastard, escape the ruined childhood, she never had and that ugly neighborhood she still had to live in.

Yes, one day Kagura would escape.

But for now, she would dance.

Slide, tap tap, swirl, jump, turn, slide

There was clapping to her left and she abruptly stopped midway in an arabesque (1).

He stood in the doorway, casually leaning against the wooden frame, his long silver hair gracefully sliding down his shoulders and to the small of his back.

"You've got talent." He spoke and it made Kagura shudder.

"What do you want? Snobby rich people shouldn't be found here in the slums." She responded snappily and walked bristly towards where her water bottle and towel were.

"I'll help you. Escape." Suddenly he was behind her and held her shoulders.

Kagura almost believed him.

"What will it cost me?"

"A dance."

They danced with the wind.

Maybe. Yes maybe, someday Kagura would be free. Someday.

--------------------------------------

Done! Phew.

I also know this looks rushed and would probably make more sense if I explained it more but meh. I think everybody should imagine their own scenario and background story

Also that's Sesshomaru. xD
