Kagome:

The Inu Youkai Huntress

Sesshoumaru's Confusion

Sesshoumaru watched Kagome as she started to pace the room. "Kagome, What's the matter?"

"Nothing, it's fine, do u mind if I stick around and finish reading the book I was reading?"

"Of course not. Tho I have a couple of questions for u, then we should go and join everyone in the dining hall to eat."

"Oh, ok. If I have the answer I will gladly give you the answer."

"Thank you. First, where did all that power come from? I have never seen a youkai's, let alone an inuyoukai's hair change it's colors as yours did."

"Well, I'm not really sure, I was a miko before I became a youkai. Perhaps that had something to do with it, tho other than bein a miko, my mother once told me, that i would come to know a secret of our families on my 21st birthday. But I thought it would be somethin to do with my father, like he's not really dead or somethin. As far as I know, when a youkai and a miko mate, their offspring become miko youkai's, I just thought that that was why. That I have become a miko youkai."

"Hmm, that's quite interesting. I never knew of the mating circumstances between miko's, and youkai's. Now for question 2, are you ready to tell me why you ran from Inuyasha in the first plce?"

"NO!" she yelled, before she realized who she had just yelled at."Oh Sesshoumaru, I'm so sorry for yelling at you like that, but please, don't ask me about him, I will tell you when I am up to it."

"My, a little over dramatic aren't we? Don't worry, I shall not ask you again. You need not apologize, it was my fault for asking, Now for my last question, why did you tell Lady Shiori that you would be courting me as well?"

"Oh, umm. . . My apologies, but if I win no one has to know that we are not mated, but we should do it right, before you choose me, or they may see through us, plus I think that Shiori may have a few dirty tricks up her sleeve, and I wish to catch her in the act. Remember, if she doe anything your best friend finds her doing anything, I get to kick her out on her ass, and she and I are the only 2 courting you."

"Very clever. Kagome, it seems we have missed dinner, would you like to acompany me to the kitchen for something to eat?"

"Sure, thank you."

"No need." Sesshoumaru said as he stood, walked around his desk and put out his arm for her to take.

Kagome's cheeks began to tint a little pinkish, "thank you anyways, can I ask you a favor?"

"Anything you'd like."

"Well, I need to visit my family, would that be alright, Also, I would like to pick up my cub?"

"Of course it would, why would you even think you'd have to ask now, Wait, did you say cub?"

"Well, see the thing is, is that I would like you to come with me. I am afraid of running into Inuyasha for one, and for two I could just use the support. And yes, my cub, tho it's not what you think, his parents were killed, and I took him in. He is a kitsune cub."

"Do not worry bout it Kagome, I shall be happy to acompany you. And yes, we shall pick pick up your pup. But for now, we have arrived. What are you in the mood for?"

"How about some ramen?"

"I'm sorry?"

"Oh right, it's something from my time, here I put some down here earlier. Lets see...hmm, oh here it is. I'll just make one for me, and you can try mine, ok?"

"Alright."

When Kagome was done makin it, she handed it to Sesshoumaru to try first. "Shrimp ramen...yummy..." Kagome giggles as she see's Sesshoumaru's face after he took his first bite. Asmall smile lit his face. Kagome couldn't help but stare. He was a completel gorgous creature, But oh Kami how much he looked like a Kami himself when he smiled. Seeing Kagome staring at him he handed the ramen back to her, and started to open his mouth to speak, though she beat him to the punch. "Sesshoumaru, you should really smile more often."

"And why peytell is that?"

"...Sesshou, I'm tired."

"Alright, I'll walk you to your room."
