Chapter 5

Sesshomaru's point of view

I find my arms wanting to hold her. I find myself yearning for a taste of her, I want to hear her laughter. To be the cause of it, to cause her to smile. To feel her presence, her aura. I find myself wanting her in general. But I never thought I would lose control of my inner-self. My beast. I have been in my true form for over 14 days and nights. My beast gave me control again momentarily, but it was long enough for me to encounter a bear youki that had a strange amount of strength. It was not until I heard her voice that I realized why it had such strength. "Inuyasha, its forehead. It has jewel shards in its forehead!". No wonder. Kuso! I dodged its claws, but I saw the claws were not meant for me. I felt my eyes widen. The bear was trying to take her life!

THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN. NOT TO HER, NOT WHILE I AM RIGHT HERE!


Kagome's point of view

When I sense a few jewel shards I try to pin-point them. But since Inuyasha is still yelling its a little harder. It wasn't until I walked towards the trees a little when I was certain. "Inuyasha, can we continue this later? I sense two shards." Inuyasha shut up in record time. I ran towards the feeling of shards. Inuyasha picked me up on the way and took off. But to see Sesshomaru fighting a bear youki and losing, by the looks of it made me snap. I focused even harder and found them in record time. I yelled out "Inuyasha, its forehead. It has jewel shards in its forehead!". I saw Sesshomaru tense and dodge. But the attack came straight for me. I squeezed my eyes shut. Waiting for the pain that never came. I opened my eyes to see a gold sun starring at me with concern.

OH MY KAMI! SESSHOMARU IS HOLDING ME AS IF I WAS DEAR TO HIM!
