I do not own InuYasha or company. Just this plot.
Chapter 4
Kagome woke the next morning.
"Get up, woman."
Kagome looked around and gasped. Sesshomaru was towering over her.
"I require my attendant."
Kagome pressed her back into the couch.
"I don't like repeating myself," he said.
Kagome glared at the demon lord. The previous night, he had told her to pleasure him and now he was trying to make her his permanent attendant.
"No. I'm going to get up and get dressed for school."
She got up and was about to walk away when left his hand snaked it's way around her throat.
"You will attend to me."
She slapped him with an aura covered hand. He released her and stepped back, clutching his check, trying to rid himself of the pain.
"I'll attend to you until you can do it yourself! But after that, you're on your own! Go and find your palace! I'm not helping you anymore after you learn to dress yourself!"
Kagome walked upstairs and roused Sango.
"Hey, Sango, it's time to get up."
Sango slowly woke.
"I have to say, Kagome, I don't know why I didn't come to the future sooner," Sango said as she pushed herself up on the mattresses. "I could very well get use to sleeping on a bed."
"Yeah, well, I'm taking the bed tonight," Kagome said as she looked at the stitches on her arm.
"How many stitches did you say you had to have?"
"Eighty. I'm not happy. I should just make him suffer for doing that to me."
Sango slowly got to her feet and made her way downstairs.
A few minutes passed before Kagome got to her feet.
"Woman."
Kagome looked up and saw Sesshomaru standing in the doorway.
"I require dressing."
Kagome glared at him.
"Fine," she said before leading the way out of the house. She only stopped to tell her mother.
"Alright, dear."
"Oh! And one more thing. How is Rin doing?"
Her mother beamed.
"She's already calling me 'mom'."
Kagome grinned.
"That little girl deserves the best," she said before opening the door.
As soon as the door was closed, she turned to the demon lord.
"You try to do anything to me again like you did last night, and I'll purify your ass straight to the tenth ring of hell."
Sesshomaru growled.
"Shut it! Remember, I only have to say one word and your face is in the ground."
He bared his fangs.
Kagome ignored the glaring demon and continued on to his room. After he was dressed, she lead him back to the house.
"Mom? I'm taking Mr. Ice Pick out."
"Kagome? Do you want me to go with you?" Sango said from the kitchen table.
"No. I've got to deal with this. I'm the one that decided to bring him here."
Sango looked between the glaring Sesshomaru to Kagome.
"Don't let him get too close."
"Where are you going, Kagome?"
"I'm not sure yet. I'm just talking him out for a walk."
A deep growl sounded and Kagome looked over her shoulder at the demon lord.
"Oh, hush."
"Do you need the car?"
Kagome shook her head at her mother.
"No. I'm sure we'll be fine on foot or in the train."
Sango, Miroku and Shippo looked at her.
"What's a train?"
Souta got up from the table and disappeared for a moment. When he returned he had a small model train with him. He set it up on the table and everyone watched in amazement as it went around the tracks.
"What's the main purpose of this 'train'?" Sesshomaru asked.
"It's kinda like Ah-Un. Except it runs on metal trails, as it were. It's a means of transport."
"What does it carry?"
"Anything from food to people."
Sesshomaru growled.
"This Sesshomaru will not take this 'train' you speak of."
Kagome just shook her head as she picked up the keys to her mom's car.
"Guess I will need the car, after all. We'll be back in a few hours."
Kagome walked out the front door with Sesshomaru following. Once they got to the car, Kagome opened the door for him.
"Get in," she said."
"I think not, woman."
"You afraid of the car?"
"I will not 'get in' as you say."
"Sesshomaru, a car is just like a train. Except that it only holds a small amount of people. There won't be anyone else joining us."
Sesshomaru looked at the car before looking back at Kagome.
"How?" he asked, rather grudgingly. He didn't like to show that he didn't know how to do things.
Kagome slowly, to show Sesshomaru how, got into the car.
"Did you catch that?"
Sesshomaru growled but nodded.
Kagome got out of the car and watched as Sesshomaru slowly got into the car, mimicking every move that Kagome did.
"Now grab that rod on the door and pull it closed."
Sesshomaru growled again.
Kagome closed the door, earning another growl, one that could be heard as if directly next to her.
"Growl all you you want, Sesshomaru, but that won't change a thing."
Kagome got into the passenger seat.
"Now don't jump out of your skin," Kagome said before turning the key in the ignition.
Sesshomaru nearly threw his claws into the dashboard.
"You destroy my mother's car..." Kagome let the threat hang there.
She then put the car in gear and merged into traffic.
"Let me out of this car!" Sesshomaru said as he was bombarded with the air from the air conditioner.
Kagome turned off the air of the car and rolled down her window.
"Woman!"
Kagome kept her eyes on the road.
"Sesshomaru, I said you had to blend in. Shut up and relax. Nothing is going to happen."
Sesshomaru growled yet again.
"Sesshomaru, I said you can growl all you want. It won't change a thing. And remember, you try to kill me, you might get shot with guns. I don't how much pain it causes, but I do know how bad it hurts to get shot with an arrow. Let me say that a little copper ball going fifty times faster, no, a hundred times faster than an arrow would hurt like hell."
Sesshomaru leaned back in the seat. He just glared out the window. Even though he wouldn't admit it, the seat he was sitting in was very comfortable.
Kagome parked the car on a curb and got out. She then walked over to Sesshomaru's door and opened it for him.
"Let's go, Sesshomaru. Time for lunch. And don't try running off. I know you don't eat human food, but you might what I'm going to have."
Kagome walked down the street to a vender.
"Two dogs with the works," Kagome said. Sesshomaru stood right behind her. "Here," she said as she handed him a hot dog.
"I don't eat my own kind," Sesshomaru growled.
"This is not a dog demon. It's chicken, pork and beef in one."
Sesshomaru leaned over and sniffed it.
"It's not poisoned."
Sesshomaru picked up the hot dog carefully and took a small bite. In that one small bite, the world seemed to stand still. He then closed his eyes to enjoy the taste.
"That taste good, Sesshomaru?"
The demon lord looked at Kagome before slowly, very, very slowly, nodding.
Kagome smiled as she took a bite of her own.
After they finished their lunch, Kagome lead him back to the car and drove off to the river.
Sesshomaru watched as Kagome walked to the water and picked up a few stones. She then started skipping some across the water. This confused the demon.
How could a rock move across water?
"Woman? How are you doing that?"
Kagome walked over to him and handed him a small, flat stone.
"You take it in your hand, your index finger wrapped around the edge and fling it like you would a disc."
Kagome held up another stone in her hand and he watched as she threw it across the water.
Sesshomaru stood next to her and mimicked the move. His skipped seven times before it went under the surface of the water.
"Nice, Sesshomaru. I've never hit seven skips before."
Sesshomaru smirked at Kagome.
"Well, Sesshomaru, how about we head home?"
Sesshomaru turned and walked toward the car. He still would never admit that the seats in the car were very comfortable.
And there you have it. Chapter 4. Sorry for the long wait. When I have too much on my mind, some stories don't get updated. I don't know when the next chapter will be added but I ask for patience. And now on to the preview.
Kagome has taken Lord Sesshomaru out for his first run around town for nothing better to do. How will he act when Kagome wants to give him a surprise? That's next chapter. Till then,
