I own nothing to do with Inuyasha..
To my guest reviewer..
I am both Moriko Uchiha and Guardian of the nine realms.
I am moving my stories here because its easier to keep up with.
My old username for this story is in the summary.
"Very well, take me and Sango back to father." Kagome said. She looked down at the ground at her right side. She was thinking of her older brother Souta. He was older than Kikyo.
Inutaisho and Sesshomaru started walking towards the Eastern castle.
"Come on Kagome." Sango said.
Kagome was brought out of her thoughts. She turned and walked with Sango. They followed the demons.
"You were thinking of him again wasn't you?" Sango asked Kagome.
Inutaisho turned his head to look back at them with the corner of his eye. He looked straight ahead once again.
'Who is the male the slayer was referring to?' Inutaisho wondered to himself.
"We will set up camp when I find a suitable place. We will continue toward the Eastern castle tomorrow. Night is falling on us quickly." Inutaisho said as he continued to walk.
"Alright milord." Sango said.
"My name is Inutaisho. This is my son Sesshomaru. You will not use lord in our names. You both are our equal. Even if one of you is a servant." Inutaisho said as he stopped to look at the girls. Sesshomaru stopped to look back as well.
"Alright." Sango said. Kagome was still thinking of her brother. But she was mostly paying attention.
Inutaisho and Sesshomaru turned and started walking again. The girls followed.
Souta, Kagome and Kikyo's brother is the reason the North and East are enemies.
Kagome missed her brother dearly. He was captured by the North two years ago. Kagome was his favorite over Kikyo. It was like the same situation with Sango. Her brother was captured by the North too last year. Kohaku was younger than Sango by four years.
That bastard Lord Naraku. The dragon leader of the North.
If Souta was still around. He would not let their father treat Kagome like that. It was then she looked to her left wrist. There was a green jagged line that was the color of dragon acid. Like a neon green. It started where her hand met her wrist. It ended eight inches up her wrist. It almost reached the bend of her elbow.
It was a curse that the Northern Lord, Naraku gave her. Kagome was there when Souta was taken. She tried to use her priestess powers against Naraku at an attempt to save Souta. But Naraku cursed her so that every time she uses her priestess powers the green line of Naraku's acid goes up her arm. But when it reaches her heart, she'll die.
It doesn't hurt bad. But it does effect her. Each time she uses her power it goes up at most one inch. Sango was the only one who knew of the curse. Most of the time Kagome wears a long sleeve kimono to hide it.
And of course the one day she doesn't wear a long sleeve kimono, she and Sango get captured.
She could not let the demons in front of her see it. She pressed her wrist into her side so they would not see. But she still light swung her arms as if she was walking normally.
After an hour of walking Inutaisho spoke.
"We will set up camp here. For your own privacy I will make two camp fires. One for the both of you. Another for me and my son." He said.
Kagome nodded.
They were in a clearing that was fifty foot large. It was in the shape of a circle. Inutaisho made both fires. One on each end. The girls were sitting next to the fire. Each leaning against a tree as they sat.
Sango looked to Kagome. "Why was you thinking of Souta earlier?" Sango asked.
They thought that the dog demons across the clearing couldn't hear them. Boy were they wrong.
"If he was here, we would have never been captured in the first place. But if I was stronger back then like I am now. I feel like I could've saved him. I wouldn't care if I had died trying. He was my best friend just like you are. Now I am cursed for my failure." Kagome said.
She started to tear up.
Sango hugged her best friend as Kagome weeped on Sango's shoulder.
"It wasn't your fault Kagome. Souta wouldn't want you to cry. We don't even know if our brothers are dead." Sango said.
The demons on the other end of camp listened to the females. When Inutaisho heard the slayer ask Kagome about a male named Souta he turned his head and looked in their direction.
'Who was Souta to Kagome? The girl seems as though she has had a rough past.' Inutaisho thought to himself. But he wasn't sure.
He then heard Kagome said something about a curse. Inutaisho looked to Sesshomaru who had his brow raised in question.
Then he learned that the females had lost their brothers to Naraku.
Naraku was no ally. But he wasn't an enemy either. He was neutral. But the more the girls talked about Naraku the more Inutaisho disliked the dragon.
Inutaisho looked to Sesshomaru. "Go find food for them. They need food." Sesshomaru nodded as he stood. He walked into the now dark woods.
He came back minutes later with a buck over his shoulder. He walked over the the girls. He dropped the fourteen pointer next to the fire.
Kagome and Sango were now sitting against a tree once again.
"If you can't cook it let us know." Sesshomaru said.
He told them that in case they were used to there meals being cooked for them.
Kagome looked at him with her eyes widened. She had never heard him speak before. But his voice was calm and soothing. She locked eyes with Sesshomaru.
Moments later, neither looked away. They just stared at each other in silence. Sango spoke so Kagome didn't continue to look like a love struck girl.
"Uh we're fine thank you though uh Lord Sesshomaru." She said.
Sesshomaru broke eye contact with Kagome. He looked at the slayer.
"Hm, we leave at dawn." Sesshomaru said with a nod as he turned and walked back to his father.
Kagome blinked. Sango looked at her.
"Why did you look at him like that Kagome? He's in an arranged marriage with your sister." Sango said.
Kagome blushed as she watched Sesshomaru sit at the fire across the clearing. "I don't know." She said.
After an hour the girls ate then went to sleep. The girls will be home tomorrow.
Sesshomaru wasn't sure if he liked the idea of that though. The way the girl looked at him when she spoke. It made his beast seem content. Why? He looked into her eyes and he was lost. He wasn't sure if he liked that feeling either. This girl hasn't stopped shocking him since he's met her earlier that day.
The girl is very intriguing. He liked that about her.
