Requested by anonymous: Not Yuri! But I would love to see Kagome offer a friendship to Kougyoku like Alibaba did. It was sooo sweet. What do you think of Alibaba and Kougyoku?

Anime: Magi x Inuyasha

Pairing: Kougyoku Ren/Kagome Higurashi


"Kougyoku-hime?"

Jolting out of her jumble thoughts, the Kou princess looked over her shoulder from her seated spot over the garden flowers. The magenta colored haired princess blinked as she saw Sindria's priestess holding a few scrolls to her chest.

"D-Domo…". She gave a small nod, unsure how to greet the female as she was accompanying Hakuryuu in his trip to Sindria. Wanting nothing but a moment's peace from her thumping heart of wanting Sinbad, she was not expecting for Sindria's priestess to come in and greet her.

"Are you alright?" Questioned the miko, tilting her head to the side.

"U-Uh hai..." Kougyoku blushed, lowering her eyes to her lap with a failed flower crown.

Kagome raised a brow as she felt the princess's uneasiness. Her aura wavered slightly and even without that, she could see her hands tremble as they fumbled with the flower crown. "Your aura says otherwise, Kougyoku-hime."

The Kou princess stilled, not wanting to look at the miko in her eyes. She had heard from Ka Koubun of Sindria's multi-talented miko that had come from an unknown place. But the moment she saw how well she and Sinbad got along, something within her stirred a feeling of envy. Sure she was confused on her own feelings towards the purple haired king, but not knowing exactly how she felt made her frustrated!

She did not even know the miko and yet she felt that jealousy brew. Hearing the sound of shuffling fabric, Kougyoku raised her eyes to see the miko coming to sit on her knees in front of her as she began to gather her own pile of flowers.

"You can talk to me, you know." Kagome smiled, placing a few of the flowers on her lap. "I know how uncomfortable it must be to be away from home with no one to talk to."

Kougyoku grabbed one of the flowers between her fingers before she began to tie it around the stem of the crown as Alibaba had showed her. "Not really….". She whispered with a pout.

Keeping her smile on her lips, the miko nodded slowly, "I see. Well, if you ever need to talk while you are here, I am always open for a chat."

"You know I am your enemy right?" Kougyoku blinked, giving her a worried expression.

"You mean you and I are? Or Sindria and Kou?" Kagome questioned back. "I may be Sindria's priestess but by no means am I fully by their side. They just took me for the mean time." Grabbing another flower from her lap, she attached to the rest of the crown. "I know love can be a confusing thing."

Love? Kougyoku lifted her head back to stare at the miko, seeing her continue on the task of completing the crown. "W-What are you talking about?"

Kagome was not dense to know the princess had something for the king of Sindria. Placing the crown over Kougyoku's head, Kagome gave her one last smile, "I do not consider you my enemy, Kougyoku-hime, so if you ever need to vent, I am here to listen."
