She walked rather fast from the castle, she made way back thought the thick forest, the morning dew still clung to a few trees and leafs. The sunlight would peak a boo ever so often and glisten on the wet green leaves.

She made her way, she knew not why he mad her so mad, he just did, damn vampires.

"Kagome my dear"

A woman's voice stopped Kagome in her tracks as you broke out from the forest line, she could see the dirt road of the village.

"Kaugra" Kagome said back not looking at the woman who sat high on a branch of a tree.

"Tell me Goddess, I have seen the army, has Lord Sesshomaru returned?"

"He has" She stated, still not looking at the woman,

The woman smiled a wicked smile "Tell me, is he-

Kagome looked at her then "Cold, mean, rude?"

The smile left Kaugra's faces "I was going to say, handsome"

Kagome sighed and closed her eyes for a moment before opening them back up. She could not lie, Sesshomaru was a site, he had grown, he was, beautiful. Kagome looked away again "Yes Kaugra, I am sure you will be pleased with him, however I do not feel it would be wise to push yourself on him, you know the law"

Kaugra opened her fan "Silly girl, silly virgin girl" Kaugra laughed and jumped down from her tree,

"Is that all you needed Kaugra?"

"Yes, fine, fine, off with you Goddess"

Kagome rolled her eyes and walked away from the demon woman, she disliked her, a lot.

Kagome made her way down the dirt road, her brown mid calf high boots kicking up dirt as she walked. They were brown and made of leather and fur, the dirt did not hurt them.

"Kagome! Kagome!"

Only one person called her Kagome without lady in front of it, and that was her best girl friend, "Sango"

Sango ran up to her friend "Kagome, I saw the army, has, has Lord Sesshomaru returned?"

"Yes, he has"

"And?"

"I duno, I only saw him for a moment"

"I am glad, yet, not, that he has returned" Sango looked back at the village. Demons hated Sesshomaru he slayed them, but the humans, humans were afraid of him, not all of them, but most of them, it was not as if he protected them, in fact he killed a few if they stood in the way of a job.

Kagome had a feeling that tonight was going to be a restless night, she sighed.

"Kagome" Sango placed her hand on her friends arm,

"Sorry, I'm fine"

"You are worried to?"

"Not really worried, just, it's going to be a restless night, Inuyasha is already on high with his brother here, Kaurga is lusting again and now I have a village full of human's who are worried and I just know my father is going to be stressed and I have no answers to give him about how the war went"

"Why didn't you ask?" Sango asked her,

"Because, he made me mad, I just wanted to leave" She stated firm,

"Mad?" Sango asked, placing one hand on her hip,

"Yes, he is a rather cold and rude if I do say myself"

"Yeah but Kagome, Lord Sesshomaru has aways been that way"

"Yes, but back then we were young, it's much worst not that he is a man and I, I am-

"A woman" Sagno finished for her,

"Yes, he spoke to me direct" Kagome brushed and hand through her hair "Uh Sango, he pissed me off! and I don't get pissed off"

"Yes you do" Sango stated dry, Kagome blew up when she was mad, she was pure spit fire,

"Ok, I do get mad, but it take's alot"

"That is true" Sango started,

"Lady Kagome is that you?" Came a monks voice, both woman sighed,

"Yes Miroku it is I" Kagome yelled past Sango,

"Wont you come into the village, I do believe it wall calm everyone"

"Yes, I am coming"

Sango and Kagome made their way in to the village and as thought, everyone was there waiting for Kagome.

"Tell us Lady Kagome, had Lord Sesshomaru returned child?" Keade the village head woman asked,

"Yes, he has"

"So, did he kill them all?"

"I do not know, I did not stay long enough to speak to him about it"

"Are we safe tonight Lady Kagome?"

Kagome sighed, the answer was yes and no, they were safe from demons that was for sure, but where they safe from Sesshomaru?

"Yes, and I will stay in the village tonight myself" She told them, giving them some relief.

"Lady Kagome, is the great Lord still cold and cruel as ever?" A person yelled out,

"He is the same, he has not changed, if he shows it would be best to show him- she stopped for a moment, she hated saying this, in her eyes right now, he deserved nothing.

"Respect, just show him the proper respect and do not- her eyes found Kaurga, the woman was waving her fan. "Speak to him so freely"

Kaurga snapped her fan shut and narrowed her eyes. Miroku rose his hands up "Everyone back to your lives, you heard the Goddess, everything will be fine"

People talked and quick chatter as they all when with their live and day to day duty,

"Now Lady Kagome, why don't I show you to my hut" He smiled and placed his hand on the small of her back,

"Monk if you don't remove that hand so help me" Sango stated thought gritted teeth,

"And while your at it remove whatever thoughts you had about me sleeping in the same room as you to" Kagome added with crossed arms "I will stay with Kaede"

Kagome would stay the night and talk with her father tomorrow, today was going to be a long day and she feared that tonight would be even longer, her eyes met with the top of the cold castle, shivers when down her back and it was a very hot day.
