Chapter 2: Miss you

(I miss you, I miss you)
Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue

Kagome awoke in her new room. It was beautiful it started with yellow and went to orange the slowly faded into the deepest red she had ever seen. The bed she was laying in was a deep black with silver ivy and flowers embroidered all over it. She look around at the other furniture that was all around the room there was a small shelf with a few old books and scrolls on it, there was a beautiful desk with a black ivy painted on it, it matched all four doors that were in her room she heard a knock on the door that was directly in front of her. She told the person on the other side "come in." Sesshoumaru walked in and looked over Kagome.

He noticed the bruises on her face were still black and blue and shining. He walked over to her and moved a strand of hair out of her face and looked at the busted lip Inuyasha had given her. He ran his finger over her lip and she whimpered and flinched away. "I am sorry Kagome, I didn't mean to hurt you. Are you feeling ok you drained you energy by placing the barrier around you and the half breed and the one around Rin and Shippo. Not to mention the emotion and physical strain the bastard half brother of mine put on you."

"I think I will be ok. I am doing better but I wish I could have protected Sango and Miroku they died for me and I couldn't do anything to protect them. I am so useless." (A/N: She doesn't know about Sango and Miroku sorry for interrupting if you already knew that but jic I wanted to make sure) She said. Sesshoumaru growled lowly and Kagome flinched away form him and put her arms up defensively. "Please don't hit me I am sorry. What ever I did I am sorry."

Sesshoumaru looked at her and said "I wasn't going to hurt you. I don't want to hurt you, Kagome. I growled because of what you said about being useless. You are very useful you are mother to the kitsune and a mother figure to Rin. For the short time she has known you she already looks to you as a mother even though she is too embarrassed to ask you to be her mother." he surprised Kagome when he half smiled at her.

She smiled back and it was a true smile she said " Does she really want me to be her mother too, or are you just saying that?"

"Yes she has talked to me about it before she just doesn't want to offend you, or make you angry. You see." Kagome raised an eyebrow at what he just said she would never be angry at a child for wanting her to be its mother, especially Rin the little girl had made a herself a place in Kagome's heart.

"Lord Sesshoumaru would you be angry if I asked her if I could be her mother?" she asked him nervously. He nodded and said "Rin will be so happy that you have asked her."

Kagome smiled at him and spoke "what time is it exactly? I need to go back to where Sango and Miroku fell and..and..b-bury th-them." she said while try not to sob, at which she was failing miserably.

Sesshoumaru wrapped his arm around her and let her cry...a little...before he said, "Kagome I have something for you that I hope you will like but it is down stairs in the dinning room. Do you want to go see it?" She couldn't speak through her tears so she just nodded and Sesshoumaru helped her off the bed and helped her balance.

They started down the stairs and made their way into the dinning room.

The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me

Kagome's jaw dropped there sitting beside Rin and Shippo was Sango, with Kirara on her lap, and Miroku right beside her. Once they both noticed Kagome, Sango was up and at Kagome's side giving her the biggest hug ever. Miroku came over and gave her a hug and Sesshomaru's voice stopped his hand's journey down to Kagome's bottom, "monk if you value your hand you will stop right there." Kagome pulled away from Miroku and gave Sesshoumaru a look that said 'thank you' then they all sat down as lunch was server.

Once everyone was finished Kagome asked Sesshoumaru "Lord Sesshoumaru is there a place where we may bathe. Please."

"Yes I will have a maid show you where to go I trust you are going to take Rin and Shippo with you and the demon slayer."

"Yes we will my Lord but what about Miroku? He has been known to spy."

"I will assign one of my guards to watch over him if he makes a move to open the door of the hot spring with you all in it he will be brought straight to me and I will let the demon slayer take care of him." Kagome nodded and Sesshoumaru sent for a maid. She walked in and Kagome noticed was actually pretty she was young but pretty. She had a wolf gray hair with black streaks, it looked as if she had heavy eyeliner but it was her demonic markings, she had silver eyes that looked kind and she wore a beautiful smile on her face. She was dressed in a simple black kimono and when she spoke she had a very light voice that caught your attention easily.

"My lady my name is Sakura will you follow me to the hot springs." she asked. "Yes we will be right behind you." Kagome nodded to Sesshoumaru to excuse her self, Sango, and the children. He nodded back and they were off to the hot spring.

Once they arrived at the hot spring with and Kagome couldn't believe her eyes it was beautiful and the flows that surrounded it. It was like being out side in a natural hot spring but this one had a 10 foot tall water fall that was used for a shower type thing and it was also used to circulate the water. It was beautiful to say the least.

Sakura told Kagome that she was going to go get all of them a new kimono that they could change into after their bath. She said she would be back in an hour.

All of them stripped off their clothes, Kagome helping Rin and Shippo, and got into the spring Kagome ducking under the water until all you could see was her head. She resurfaced and asked Sango to help her wash the children. Sango started washing Shippo's hair and Kagome started to wash Rin's hair. Once the children were clean Kagome wrapped them both in a towel then got them dressed in the clothes that Sakura had brought back in to them.

Kagome asked Rin if she knew where to find Sesshoumaru she said yes and Kagome told them to go and bug him a lot just for her, and with that they were off, leaving her and Sango to talk.

"So what did Inuyasha do once Miroku and I died." Sango said it so freely and Kagome just shuddered all the way through what Sango had said.

Kagome replied " I thought you two might have been knocked unconscious y-you two really died? But h-how? Oh did Sesshoumaru used his sword.?" "Yea he did he brought us back then placed us on Kirara so we could ride back to the castle." Kagome was shocked that he did or that he would really care...even just a little bit."

"Yea he must have figured out what Miroku and I tried to do. I am so sorry Kagome that we couldn't..." she couldn't finish her statement. Kagome told her that it was ok once she let down her barrier Sesshoumaru saved her. They were finally done and Kagome said she was going to go rescue Sesshoumaru from the children, and Sango would go and save Miroku from his 'guard'. They said they would definitely meet in the dojo later to spar with each other, Kagome had been training in secret to try and make herself stronger so Inuyasha wouldn't be able to beat her but she just couldn't fight him.


We'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends

Kagome walked the halls looking for some indication of where Sesshoumaru and the children were and she finally came across someone she knew all to well, Jaken. She walked up to him and tapped his shoulder, "um Jaken do you know where Lord Sesshoumaru is?"

"Wench my Lord is in his study and doesn't need to be bothered by wenches like you." Kagome knew that simple statement shouldn't have hurt her but it brought back memories of Inuyasha and how he used to talk to her. She felt tears fill up her eyes and she looked away. About that time Sakura came up to Kagome and said she would show her where her lord was.

Once they got to a large double door made of what looked like black painted wood with the night sky and a pair of dog demons that were in their full forms howling at the crescent moon. Sakura raised her hand to knock but before her hand made contact with the door they heard a very irritated lord say "Come. In"

Kagome smiled at Sakura and said she didn't have to come she could get back to what she was doing before having to help her. Sakura smiled at Kagome and bowed sightly to Kagome and walked away.

Kagome opened the doors that were in front of her and when she looked in she saw Sesshoumaru sitting at his desk and the children were running around and playing, like kids do. Sesshoumaru looked up at Kagome and noticed how beautiful she looked. She had a crimson red kimono on with a silver tiger and a black dragon fight on it wrapping around her petite waist, it had a silver and black obi and she wore black slippers. All in all he thought she was beautiful. Though he would not tell her.

"Lord Sesshoumaru" he heard her call then the children noticed her and piled on her, and started to tickle her she was laughing so hard tears were pouring down her face she tried to "L-lord S-sesshoumaru p-please help m-me I-I c-can't b-breath eep."

Sesshoumaru chuckled and both of the kids stopped and all three of them were staring at him as if he had grown a new head. He walked over to where the two children were still sitting on top of Kagome and lifted them off of her still smiling. Kagome looked up at him and gave him a big smile of her own.

Before she could say anything Jaken came in and squawked "Lord Sesshoumaru dinner will be ready in half an hour... what is that wench doing in here Lord Sesshoumaru she is a disgrace and should be put out of the house after lunch like the other..." smack Kagome had tears streaming down her face as she stood and ran out of the room then Sesshoumaru had hit Jaken hard and threw him into the wall (A/N: I don't hate Jaken but he deserved that)

Sesshoumaru went to look for Kagome, he told the children to 'make Jaken look really pretty for when Kagome sees him the next time.' he found Kagome about five minutes after he started to look for her and follow her scent. She was in the library sitting on one of his couches crying quietly to herself.

Sesshoumaru walked over and sat down gently beside her so he wouldn't startle her. "Kagome you know Jaken doesn't know anything about you when he looks at you all he sees is a human."

Kagome snorted "and what exactly do you see Lord Sesshoumaru? In case you don't realize I am nothing but a human."

Sesshoumaru looked at her and laughed again and said "is that all you see yourself as just a 'human' you Kagome are the strongest miko I have ever seen in all of my years. Don't take such stupid words to heart, Kagome."

Kagome looked at him and asked "how can you make me feel so good with out saying so much...and I thought you didn't like humans."

"I don't like weak humans and you my dear Kagome are anything but weak." Sesshoumaru gave her a small smile and gave her a hug. Sakura walked in and caught them in the embrace she said "I-I'm sorry I-I didn't mean to I w-was just going t-to tell you that dinner is ready when you are." with that she turned around and left. "Well I guess we need to get down there, Kagome" Sesshoumaru said, then added if Jaken bothers you again tell me and he will be locked away in the dungeon or I will allow my guards to use him as target practice." Kagome nodded and they walked down and into the dinning room.

Sango and Miroku were already seated and waiting on Sesshoumaru and Kagome. Rin and Shippo told them what had happened with Jaken and how they weren't sure what happened after that. Sango then decided that they would spar some other time Kagome had all ready had a really bad day and tomorrow would be better anyway.

When Kagome and Sesshoumaru walked into the dinning room side by side it was breathtaking they looked like they belonged together, and to Sango and Miroku's surprise Sesshoumaru looked happy and had a small smile on his face also. They sat down and the maids started to put food on the table.

After dinner was done Kagome started to put the children to bed but she couldn't pick up rin and shippo couldn't sit on her shoulder because of all the bruises and the soreness wasn't gone completely yet and when they tickled her earlier she was too distracted to feel the entirety of the pain. Stuck on what to do she was shocked when Sesshoumaru came over and pick up Rin in one arm and Shippo in the other. He looked over to Kagome and told her to come on.

They got to a very pink room it went form a light pink at the top and went gradually to hot pink. The room had a queen sized bed off to the right and on the left it had a vanity and dresser with a closet door and one corner of the room was covered in dolls of all shapes and sized. Sesshomaru asked if Shippo would mind staying in here with Rin since he didn't have a good room with furniture in it yet. Shippo agreed. Sesshoumaru placed both Rin and Shippo in the bed and Kagome sat down on the side and read them a short story and then kissed them both.

Shippo said "goodnight mama" Rin half asleep also said "goodnight mama" once she realized what she had said she instantly said "Rin is sorry Kagome Rin wasn't paying attention." Kagome made Rin look at her and she said " I don't mind Rin I would love it if you call me mama." Rin smiled and Kagome kissed her forehead and Shippo's then she and Sesshoumaru walked out their door and started down the hall.

You will be in the room you woke up in earlier. My room is right across from yours if you need me I will be there if you need me I will be there goodnight Kagome sleep well." he bent down and kissed her on the cheek, and walked into the room opposite hers.

Kagome walked into her room and changed into a black sleeping kimono with red cherry blossoms winding around it. She slipping into sleep almost instantly.

(I miss you, I miss you)
(I miss you, I miss you)

Kagome's Dream...Nightmare

Inuyasha was coming over to her and he had his arms open and he was waiting on her to come to him when she refused something happened with his eyes and he went into rage. He started to hit her repeatedly like he use to. Kagome looked around for Sesshoumaru but he was nowhere to be found.

Inuyasha noticed her looking for something and he taunted "Kagome he isn't coming for you he doesn't know where you are. Isn't that sad your new 'love' isn't here to help you get away from me. I missed you Kags I love you remember that and I will be back for you and Sesshoumaru won't know where to find you at. You will die by my hand...understand." The whole time he was talking he was hitting her harder and harder.

End of Dream

Kagome awoke screaming her door was thrown open and Sesshoumaru rushed in and looked around he was panting and snarling looking for what had hurt Kagome. Miroku and Sango were looking in from the hall making sure Kagome was ok. Once they figured out it was only a nightmare they went back to their room.

Kagome looked up at a pink eyed Sesshoumaru and gave a small smile that didn't reach her tear-stained eyes. Sesshoumaru went over to her bed and sat down and put his arms around her and pulled her to his chest rubbing comforting circles on Kagome's back.

"What happened...was it a dream?" Sesshoumaru asked tightening his grip on her, but still not hurting her.

Kagome sniffed and said "I-it was Inu-Inuyasha he was hurting me again in my dream...it was so real Sesshoumaru." A new crop of tears started down her face. Sesshoumaru asked gently, "will you tell me about it Kagome? Please."

Kagome was shocked that he cared and that he said please but she told him the dream exactly the way it happened. Once she was finished she snuggled closer to Sesshoumaru feeling safe for the first time this night. She said in a very small voice "I am still so scared of him...even though he isn't here."

Sesshoumaru volunteered "I f you wish Kagome you can spend the rest of the night in my room, I promise not to do anything." Kagome smiled and nodded that it would be ok. Sesshoumaru picked her up and carried her to his room and laid her down in his bed and he pulled up a chair by the bed. Kagome asked him what he was doing. He told her he would sleep in the chair he didn't mind she could use his bed.

Kagome stood up and push the chair away and pulled him into the bed with her. Sesshoumaru asked "are you sure you are ok with me sleeping here with you, I can leave if you want." Kagome placed two of her fingers to Sesshoumaru's mouth and told him to be quiet. She snuggled into his chest and wrapped her arms around his waist. She raised her head up and placed a small kiss on his cheek "Goodnight Lord Sesshoumaru, sleep well." with that she was out.

Sesshoumaru was felt like he need, no wanted, to sleep he took in Kagome's sweet scent once more before he also allowed unconsciousness to take over him.Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always

With Inuyasha in Keade's hut

"Where is that bitch I swear I'll kill her if I see her again who took her I can't remember." Inuyasha paced back a forth in the hut trying to figure what exactally had happened before he was knocked out. Keade had left to take care of some woman's child about two hours ago and he didn't expect her back for another day or two.

Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks...That was it his brother had her he would go and get her away from his brother and see exactly how much torture the little bitch could withstand she had it coming to her she after all went for his brother.

Even thought it was the middle of the night he took off starting on his overnight journey to the western land castle, his brother's house, and he would get his bitch no matter what the cost. He would have her again at his side to do with her what he wants.

He arrived at the western land castle about noon the next day. He smelled Kagome's scent out side with the two brats Rin and Shippo. He sniffed out Sango and Miroku he couldn't believe it they were alive, but he had killed them. His damn half-brother definitely had something to do with that. Speaking of his half brother Inuyasha noticed that he was in his study and even with his demonic speed he wouldn't be able to stop Inuyasha taking Kagome unless he got on his trail right afterward.

Inuyasha realized he would need to cover his scent right after he takes off with her telling Sesshoumaru who took her but leaving him not knowing where Inuyasha takes Kagome.


This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides

With Sesshoumaru in his study

'I feel uneasy about something.'

He looked out of his study's balcony window to see Kagome and Shippo play tag with Rin. The sound of all their laughter was enough now to make a small smile form on his lips. He reluctantly went back to work only to be disrupted by Rin's scream.
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight

He saw a red clad figure obviously his brother picking Kagome up and taking her to God knows where. He was in the garden in the blink of an eye and he looked around he smelled his brother putrid smell and Kagome's beautiful smell.

Shippo was holding Rin and they both had tears running down their faces Sesshoumaru called five of his most trusted guards and set two of them to watching Rin and Shippo and took the other three to help him find Kagome.


Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)

With Inuyasha and Kagome

"LET ME GOOOOO!" Kagome screamed. Inuyasha just hit her and knocked her out. He was gonna have a lot of fun with his Kagome he couldn't wait.


Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)

Sesshoumaru was looking non-stop when he caught the faint scent of Kagome. He was gonna get back his Kagome.


I miss you, I miss you

I miss you, I miss you

I miss you, I miss you

I miss you, I miss you

I miss you, I miss you
