Red as Blood

Chapter 7

Dying to Live

Kagomes eyes snapped open and she sat up. Darkness surrounded her and she couldn't sense anything at all. Reality shook her and it shook hard. She looked real hard into the darkness and could make out figures. Beside her was souta, the other side was kohaku, and at her feet laid rin. Smiling softly she got up. Sweat glazed her forehead and her eyes hurt. Walking slowly she searched for a stream. Sooner than she knew it, water could be heard, she sat beside the small stream and splashed water on her face. Sighing she sat back.

'What am I going to do.'

'Well lets see, get the jewel from kohakus back then tell sesshoumaru to use tensaiga on him you baka!'

'Well then, what's after that.' kagome asked her self to occupied to sense someone approach her from behind.

'Stay with sesshoumaru!'

'There's one more jewel shard, then I can go do what ever he wants. He won that fight because I was weak!'

'You are weak cause you don't even sense there's some one behind you!' kagome snapped her head to the side and saw golden eyes shining down on her. A small scream and a jump escaped her body. He walked beside her and sat down.

"A demon could of easily killed you if I wasn't around." he announced in a bored tone.

"I know, I know. Im weak, senseless, and a stupid human." she then crossed her arms under her breasts and turned from him. He had a bemused look on his face as she watched her. She sighed in an annoyed way.

"You are not weak, miko." her gaze snapped to him.

"What did I say sesshoumaru. Call me kagome. K-a-g-o-m-e, not any th-" she was cut of when his lips crushed against hers and she fell back onto the grass. Her eyes widened then closed.

'That got her to shut up.' he said to himself and smirked. When he pulled away he instantly kissed her again. This time with more passion. Softly he brushed his tongue against her bottom lip, asking for entranced. She happily parted her lips for his tongue to wrestle hers. Sesshoumaru then slowly got up, still kissing her and pulling her with him. He sat up and pulled away. Kagome panted and looked at him. Then it hit her,

'im human, he forgot. What do I do! Run, then he wont regret it and try and kill me.' she then backed away and got up. Before she could leave back into the forest she was pinned to a tree.

"Were do you think your going?" he asked with a mad tone.

"Im human sesshoumaru. Im not a demon anym-" she was once again cut off when his lips touched hers. Slowly he pulled away and between small kiss he said..

"I- don't care-if your-human." he then kissed her neck making her moan, she drove him crazy, and he drove her crazy. Her arms dropped around his neck when he let them go. His hands held her waist against the tree. Slowly she pushed against him and entwined her hands in his hair as he kissed down her neck. On of his hands slipped down her thigh and pulled on of her legs up as he pushed against her. He could smell her arousal and his demon was trying yo brake through. A gasp broke from her lips when she felt something hard press against her lower half. He nibbled her neck and went up to kiss her hard. Her head fell back against the and he pushed more into her making her gasp again and moan. He kissed down her cheek and licked the nape of her neck, his demon was pushing through. A pain came to kagomes neck and she felt sesshoumaru lick at the wound. He marked her, now all he had to do is mate her. Her eyes widened and she pushed away a little.

"W..what did you do." she breathed.

"Marked you." he then licked at her blood, it made him even harder.

'I cant mate you yet.' he said as he pulled up her other leg to wrap around his waist.

'Why cant I stop!' he yelled at himself. The demon inside was telling him to rip her cloths off and mate her until dawn, but he said no. he wanted her first time to be slow and soft, not hard and fast. Her breathing hitched and soon her eyes snapped open. Looking she saw sesshoumaru gazing into her eyes. Her legs dropped back down to earth slowly, her arms came back to her side. She looked sadly at him and turned. As fast as she could she ran back to camp.

'What were you thinking. You should of known he was ganna do that. Stupid, stupid, stupid. You always fall in these trapts!'

'I love him! I cant help but fall!' she yelled back. Tears were about to brake through as she came into view of the camp. She could still feel his body against hers, his lips on her neck. Her hand then flew up to were he bit her.

'He marked me.'

'Yea, you're his.' tears now slid down her cheeks as she sat beside the burnt out fire.

'Im not his or any ones. He's just going to use me, yea like a whore!' she shook her head violently.

"Im not one!" slowly she laid on the soft grass, falling into a deep sleep.

with Sesshoumaru

'dammit, dammit, dammit! What did I do!' he yelled as he punched the tree in front of him.

' you stopped and she ran!' his demon self yelled. It was outraged.

'I didn't want to hurt her!'

'You should of just done what I told you to!' sesshoumaru shook his head and walked back to camp. When he got there, kagome was laying on the ground, tears still stained her cheeks, and her arousal still faint. Slowly he lifted her up and put her back beside the children.

Sun shined brightly, burning the mikos eye lids. Slowly she opened her eyes and looked around. Souta and kohaku were talking, rin was picking flowers, humming a tune. Jaken was against ah and un watching the kids. Kagome got up and stretched. She then looked to her left when some one approached.

"Sesshoumaru im going to take a bath." she then looked at au and un to see her yellow back pack strapped to it. Picking it up she walked up to sesshoumarus side. She didn't look at him just looked strait ahead into the forest.

"And don't fallow me." she whispered sadly and left sesshoumaru standing dumbfounded. Kagome got to the springs alone and safely. She stripped from her cloths and slipped into a small springs. The steam rose around her, misting her skin softly. Looking through her pack she pulled out a towel and some cloths. She had a white tank top that fit her tightly and comfortably. A short dark blue skirt that fluttered in the breeze. The day was going to be hot she was sure. She didn't wear her socks so high anymore, actually she wore flip flops now, dark blue ones. She set the cloths and towel on top of them at the side of the spring and started searching for soap and shampoo.

About 30 minutes past and kagome finished washing up so she decided to rest her sore muscles and heart, giving into the warmth. Her eyes drifted closed. She heard foot steps come from behind and she jumped then covered her breasts. Anger laced her as she sat there, frowning.

"Sesshoumaru what did I tell you, I said-"

"im not sesshoumaru!" hissed the new voice. Slowly she turned to meet silver eyes.

"S..sakuta?" memories then set in, anger and hurt spiked her eyes.

"Kagom-"

"shuddup. Your going to answer my questions, got it!" he gave in and nodded.

"Turn arounf." she hissed. His eyes shown with amusement.

"Why, its not like I haven't seen you naked before?" kagomes cheeks burned and she frowned at him.

"Turn around!" he did as he was told and turned around. Kagome got out and wrapped the towel around her. Slowly she walked a little away from him.

"Why did you turn me into a human!" she said with sadness and hurt stinging his ears.

"Like I said before. My brothers don't really like you because of the miko part. They found it was a disgrace for a beautiful demon to be a miko, so they took the demon power out of you, and...killed your brother. The older guy, I forgot his name, the one who turned you into a dem-" he was cut off when kagomes head bowed and saw tears streak down her cheeks. He took a step closer to her.

"Don't, stay away from me!" he nodded and stepped back looking at her sadly.

"What are you guys, why have you come here! Why am I involved too." her eyes snapped up at him. Anger flashed in her eyes, the dark blue started turning lighter.

"Well me and my brothers have special abilities as a demon. The oldest is Ominito, the one you saw before...turning into a human. He controls fire and wind., he's the one who killed your brother...and the one who set up the plan to do this to you. Hekenu is the second oldest. He controls water and ice, he was probably in the springs with you and the one who killed you. I am the youngest, sakuta, I control nature and shadows. I am the only one without a mate, that is why im in love with you." kagome shook her head violently. She was strong, powerful, and a demon, him and his brothers had to ruin it by turning her back into a human, and they killed her brother, the one with a broken soul and he deserved to live and be happy not die a horrid death. Kagome lashed out, she ran beside her back pack and untied the sword she couldn't really hold and started attacking him with it. Tears streamed down her cheeks, he tried to dodge it over and over.

"You killed some one who never deserved the fate you brung him!" she yelled swiping at him again, the sword fell from her hands and she charged at him, slapped him and wiped at her eyes.

"You took away my happiness, my power I yearned and always wanted. You took my life away! I don't deserve this life, I should be happy, not dead inside! You killed me! You took everything away! Its all your fault!" she yelled, her eyes close to turning white, a scream ripped through her lips, her hair flew violently around her, the towel flowing around her, tightly pressed against her wet body. Tears slid down her pail cheeks, her body slowly lifted from the ground and a few feet in the air. A small barrier cascaded around her making her look like an angel. A new figure ripped through the forest. Sakuta was laying on the floor looking up at kagome with shock.

"Kagome?" sesshoumaru yelled. She didn't look at him, she looked at the sky and the tears dripped from her face to the ground. As fast as he could he charged the barrier, surprise hit him when he past right through it, not a single scar. He jumped up and grabbed kagome in his arms. She cried silently, her eyes still white. After his feet touched the ground she thrashed in his arms hitting his chest, he put her to her feet and wrapped his arms around her, she tried to push away but he held her. She slapped and hit his chest, tears still streaming down her cheeks. Sesshoumarus gazed sharpened as it landed on sakuta.

"Leave!" he hissed. Sakuta was then gone. Kagome gave in and hung to him, holding tightly to his shirt, crying hopeless tears.

"They took everything! They took my life, my spirit! So did inuyasha! Every one want to hurt me!" she cried in his shoulder. Her eyes were soon back to there dark blue self, but something was different, like the life was gone from her. He held her for a while then picked her and sat against a tree, letting her lay in his lap, still crying.

"They didn't take everything." he corrected her.

"Yes they did!"

"They didn't take your friends, you younger brother, your kit, your family...me." he then looked deeper into her broken eyes.

"I don't even have you!" he shook his head and smirked.

"You do so have me!" she looked away.

"No I don't! You don't even want me, im tired of being used, hurt, and played with!" he took her chin in his hands and brung her face up to his. There lips were inches apart, his eyes gazing into hers.

"I want you more than anything, I wont use, hurt or play with you." kagome shook her head.

"I don't believe you." her eyes then left his. He licked his lips making his tongue brush across her lips, her eyes shut and she turned back to look at him.

"Believe this sesshoumaru, I do not speak of lies." he then smirked and put a hand on her lower back, above her butt, but not on it. She gasped and gazed even deeper into his eyes.

'Every time he touches me its like bliss washes over me.' she said in her mind.

'No bad, your doing what he wants, he wants you to kiss him. Make him kiss you.' she then breathed out of her mouth so her soft breath brushed across his lips. Her eyes held yearning and love that locked his gaze to hers. He couldn't take it, he wanted her to kiss him but he had to kiss her. She then licked his bottom lip sending him over the edge. Faster than she could blink, her back was on the grass, hair laid around her, lips pressed hungrily. Sesshoumaru had to have her, he wanted her so much it hurt. Kagome pushed her hips to his and pulled him more to her. Her hand was behind his head pushing him more to her lips. He gnawed softly on her bottom lip, she opened her mouth and his tongue hungrily played with hers.

"Kagome-okaasan!" Rin yelled happily. Kagomes and sesshoumarus head snapped to the side and there standing very still, jaws dropped..

"Souta, Kohaku...Rin." kagome blushed a deep red. Rin ran to kagome but both boys stopped. Sesshoumaru silently growled and sat up, he then realized something and as fast as he could he pulled kagome to his lap. She blushed even redder and struggled to get free making him groan. Kagomes eyes widened when she felt something hard touch her inner thigh. She nearly moaned but started laughing, which made her shook. Sesshoumaru growled in her ear silently.

"I should advise you not to move so much or I will end up mating you in front of them." he whispered. She stopped and sat still, shock and a bit of fear washing over her. A smile graced her lips as rin ran and hugged her.

"Is kagome going to be my okaasan?" rin asked happily. Kagomes eyes widened and she hugged the little girl still trying not to move a lot. Souta walked over and sat in front of kagome, kohaku beside him.

"W...what were you two doing?"

"Uuh nothing." souta then bursted out laughing. Kagome then looked at kohaku and saw his sad expression. Then it hit her.

"Kohaku we have to take the shard from her back." his eyes widened then shock crossed his face.

"I..I thought you were going to take me to my sisters?" tears were ready to spill from his eyes.

"Yes you are. Sesshoumaru is going to use his sword to bring you back to life, don't worry you will see your sister." kagomes smiled lovingly making sesshoumarus mood lighten. He nodded and turned around. Kagome looked at sesshoumaru and he nodded. She got up slowly and went over to kohaku.

"This is going to sting." she then closed her eyes and put her hand on his back. With her miko powers she was going to call the jewel to her. Kohaku hissed in pain when the jewel finally appeared in her hand, his body dropped to the ground afterwards. Sesshoumaru then got up and unsheathed his sword, put it above him and killed the little soul stealers. Kohaku didn't open his eyes but his chest started moving up and down. Kagome put her ear to his chest and heard the faint beat of his heart. A smile graced her face as she sprung up and hugged sesshoumaru.

"Thank you so much." she then kissed his cheek. Souta made a face.

"EW..you two get a room or something!" kagome blushed and pulled back.

"We have to get him to sango." sesshoumaru nodded and looked into the forest.

"Jaken get the kids on ah and un." souta then jumped up on the dragon along with rin, kagome slowly picked up kohaku and set him in front of souta. Sesshoumaru then picked up kagome.

"Lets go." he then ripped past them, the dragon disappeared after them soon after.

The sun was setting and sesshoumaru could sense the humans kagome traveled with. Kagome was sound asleep, clutching to his shirt, peace was on her face as well. Sesshoumaru slid to a stop when he came into a field were the humans were. Inuyasha jumped up, unsheathed his sword and growled.

"Put kagome down!" he ordered. Sango got up when ah and un approached. A small squeal came to her when she saw her little brother breathing, alive and right there. His eyes opened and he looked at sango.

"S..sister?" ksango nodded and hugged him. Miroku smiled warmly at the scene.

'She will finally be happy.' sesshoumaru growled when inuyasha came up to him, kagomes eyes fluttered open and she gazed up at the demon lord and yawned. She smiled at him and then she noticed he wasn't looking at her. Slowly she turned and saw inuyasha. Kikyou frowned when inuyasha flattened his ears.

"Kagome! You mated this bastard!" he yelled. Kagome blushed and shook her head, sesshoumaru then put her down.

"I smell him all over you!" inuyasha then ran up to her and moved the hair from her neck to reveal the mark he gave her. Anger flashed through his eyes, they became tented with red. He looked at kagome with hate. She backed up, but fell to the ground with a stinging to her cheek. Looking up frightfuly she started crying.

"Your weak and pathetic as I thought! Your human again, and you crawled to sesshoumaru you filthy whore! You will never become strong!" he was about to lash out on her but stopped when his half brother punched him.

"You bring even more discrace to the family now. If you touch her again, I will take your arm off!" he then unsheathed the sword, inuyasha unsheathed his but it didn't transform.

"What the hell!" he yelled. Kagome smiled and looked at inuyasha with hurt.

"It only transforms when your protecting me. your not protecting me anymore inuyasha. You mean NOTHING to me!" tears streaked down her face and she still smiled. Inuyasha was too dumbfounded to realize sesshoumaru punched him again. Inuyasha tried to dodge the attacks but each time it hit him a little. Kikyou then started shooting arrows at sesshoumaru, one slid across his side, leaving a huge scar. Kagome got up and charged at kikyou, slapping her down.

"Now that inuyasha cant stop me, im going to put your soul at peace!" kagome then punched kikyou again. Soon kikyou was against a tree with kagomes hands around her neck. Sango didn't do anything but smirk at this, she held kohaku tightly and miroku was beside her. Rin was sleeping and souta watched amazed. Inuyasha and sesshoumaru were still fighting. Shippo was sleeping near miroku. Kagome smirked as kikyou struggled.

"Like I said I can...-" she was cut off when a searing pain shot through her side. Looking down she saw a small dagger in her side, blood gushing out. She stumbled back a little then fell to the ground. Kikyou smirked and grabbed her bow and arrow, aiming it at kagomes heart. The last thing kagome saw before black faded around her, and her life started draining was sesshoumarus face.

"S..sessh..oum..aru-"
