Chapter Four – Remembering the past
Jaken led Kagome just outside the library before continuing on his way. Kagome looked at the door for a minute before opening it and entering. The library was bigger than Kagome could imagine. 3 Walls held mountains of books while one wall had a window and under that window was a desk. Behind the desk sat a demon lord that went by the name of Sesshoumaru. Kagome froze {what's he doing here?} she then mentally slapped herself {maybe because he lives here stupid!} she then noticed he was writing on some paper and turned to leave when
"What do you want?"
Kagome turned around to see Sesshoumaru staring right at her "gomen Sesshoumaru-sama. Rin is sleeping and I don't have anything to do, so I thought I would read for a bit until she woke up"
Sesshoumaru's face remained blank, but inside his mind was busy {she can read? Not many humans can read, she truly is a strange human} he took recognition of her clothes {I wonder where her village is, I've never seen clothes like those, they are undignified}. He then noticed she was turning to leave again "you can read?"
She stopped in the doorway and looked at him "h-hai"
"Who taught you?" he question {if she is well educated, maybe she can teach Rin} he mentally smirked {which should give me more time to figure her out}
Kagome walked up to his desk "there's a place I go to called a school. I learn to read, write, learn how to solve mathematical questions, and other stuff. Why do you ask?"
Sesshoumaru stood up and walked around his desk until he was standing right in front of Kagome "you will educate Rin"
Kagome's eyes went wide "nani?"
He lowered his eyes in a glare "you will do wise not to question me"
Kagome then shook herself him her slight shock before nodding "gomen, you just surprised me"
He raised an eyebrow, but then ignored her comment "you will teach Rin to read, to write, and whatever else you know. Understand?"
Kagome nodded "hai, Sesshoumaru-sama"
He gave a slight nod "then, Kagome, you may choose whatever book you want to read"
Kagome looked around before looking back at him {maybe he's not as bad as I first thought} "arigato Sesshoumaru-sama"
Sesshoumaru then went back to his desk and began doing his paper work again while Kagome looked for a book. When she thought she found one she sat in a chair in the library to read the first chapter.
Unknowing to Kagome, she was being watched by the demon lord. Sesshoumaru was very puzzled by her. He smelt no fear of him on her, nervousness, but not fear. {She is a very curious creature indeed…. even if she is a human}
Kagome found the book she was reading interesting and then decided to go back to Rin. She stood up and walked to the door before looking over at Sesshoumaru "I'm going to go see if Rin is awake"
He nodded his head and watched as she exited and then his room fell into complete silence {and I suppose if she can give me the respect I deserve…I should give her some} he reasoned with his mind {after all she is the only human to not fear me…aside from Rin} He was then snapped from his thoughts when he heard a squeal that could only be Rin's voice {I best see what is going on} and with that he stood up and left the library.
Kagome had entered the room just as Rin was waking up. The child looked over to Kagome "I'm feeling much better"
"That's good" Kagome said as she walked over and smiled at the child.
Rin frowned "but isn't your deal with Sesshoumaru-sama that when I get better your going to leave?"
"Hai" Kagome admitted "but Sesshoumaru-sama and I have worked out another deal. I'm going to teach you to read and to write"
Rin squealed "YAY!" she jumped up from the bed and hugged Kagome's waist "now I get to spend more time with Kagome-chan!"
Kagome smiled "you remind me a lot of Shippo"
Rin looked up "who?"
Kagome placed Rin back in bed "Shippo. He's a fox demon about your age. He also lost his mother and father"
"What happened to them?" Rin asked
"They were killed by 2 other demons known as the Thunder brothers" Kagome answered as she sat down beside the child "I was traveling with Inuyasha then and-"
"Whose Inuyasha?" interrupted Rin.
Kagome explained how she met Inuyasha, leaving out the part of her being from another time. She then explained how she met Shippo, then Miroku, and then Sango. She explained Naraku and every villain they had come across. She even told Rin the simple time when the group would just sit back and relax. Little did Kagome know that there was a demon listening to every word in the hall, behind the door.
Rin was very ensnared by Kagome's stories of her journeys {Kagome-chan has been through so much} she could tell that Inuyasha didn't seem like a nice person most of the times, but then learned he just didn't know how to show his feelings {just like Sesshoumaru-sama} she thought "Kagome-chan?"
Kagome looked down at the child "yes Rin?"
"Does Sesshoumaru-sama know about Inuyasha?"
Kagome hesitantly nodded {boy does he ever} she thought to herself "hai Rin, you see they are related. Inuyasha is Sesshoumaru-sama's half brother"
"Oh" Rin then raised an eyebrow "how come Inuyasha never comes here to visit Sesshoumaru-sama?"
"Well, you see Rin, they don't really get along" Kagome answered, carefully choosing her words. She did not want to tell the child that every time they saw each other it was a fight to the death "every time they see each other they…just don't agree with each other and end up hurting each other's feelings. That's why they try to keep their distance from each other"
Rin slowly nodded "oh, I feel sorry they don't get along. Do you think some day they will?"
Inside her mind Kagome snorted {yeah and Naraku will suddenly grow a conscious and start picking flowers while singing Mary had a little lamb}. Kagome almost laughed out loud at her little comment her mind made before noticing Rin was still waiting for an answer "uum, it's hard to tell Rin"
Just then Sesshoumaru opened the door. He had been listening to the whole thing and couldn't take it any more. He had to know the answer to his most burning question and by hell he was going to get an answer. He looked to Rin "Jaken is going to watch you while I speak with Kagome" he turned his gaze to a now very nervous Kagome "you, will follow me" and with that he walked out of the room.
Kagome glanced at Rin and then watched as Jaken entered the room with a smirk on his face. He stopped right in front of her "heh, someone is in trouble. Guess I forgot to tell you Sesshoumaru-sama hates to be interrupted when he's doing his paper work in the library"
Kagome silently gulped {but he didn't say anything when I was in there…in fact he let me read whatever I wanted}. She then quietly walked out in the hall where Sesshoumaru had waited. Jaken quickly ran to the door and started humming the death march. Kagome turned to him with a glare "oh yeah, I'll show you whose dead" and with a swift kick, Jaken was sent flying into a wall, flat as a pancake once again. Kagome could hear Rin start giggling as she started to follow Sesshoumaru {well at least I made her happy while I'm gone} Kagome smiled to herself {I should do it more often, not only does it make her laugh, but it feels great to. Like relieving anger after a bad day at school}
Sesshoumaru led Kagome down many halls before they finally reached outside. The grass was very fresh, flowers were in bloom, and believe it or not there were birds chirping in Sesshoumaru's back yard. The place was beautiful. Kagome looked all around finding a few benches to sit. As they walked up to one, Sesshoumaru motion for her to sit down. She did {well, if I'm going to die at least I'm in a beautiful spot…} she glanced up at Sesshoumaru who was staring at her with his emotionless face {and with a murderous demon lord}
Sesshoumaru stared at her and for a few moments they were locked in a silent staring contest until he finally broke the silence "where do you come from?"
