your p.o.v

The next day, you were wandering around the castle grounds alone, walking through a thick section of shrubbery (hehehehe... shrubbery). You suddenly heard voices near you. You stopped, climbed a tree next to you and started to listen to the conversation. You heard Sesshoumaru speak "Here it is Kagura" he said. You peered through the bushes, just in time to see him hand a woman a bag. She took it gingerly. "Thankyou, Lord Sesshoumaru. I am in your debt."she said, gratitude in her tone. He shook his head dismissively. "Nonsense. It was a fair trade." She smiled at him, placing a hand on his chest. "Are you sure, my Lord?" she asked, sexily. You watched, half-interested, half-disturbed by what could happen. You didn't particularly want to watch 'the show'. You saw him push her away. "I'm sure, Kagura. Now get off my lands, and go back to your master Naraku." he said, then turned around and walked away. At those words you almost fell out of the tree. They echoed tauntingly in your head. "your master Naraku." "your master Naraku."

You had a flashback to a memory from when you were a child. "Your father..." You mother wiped tears from her eyes. "Your father... is dead. That... that bastard Naraku murdered him!" She continued, anger controlling her voice.

When you snapped out of it, the two of them had gone. You climbed down from the tree, and slowly made your way back to the castle, anger flooding through you. You sat down outside the castle, underneath the dining room window. You could hear people, probably the servants, walking past the window, chatting. Sounding happy. You sighed. There was no one you could talk to here. Rin came running up. "YUKI!" she shouted sounding cheerful. "Hey, Rin" you said, trying to sound happy. "Do you want to play with Rin?" she asked. You smiled lovingly at her. "Sorry Rin. But I'm too tired to play" you apologised, saying the first excuse that popped into your head. She frowned, pouting. "But Rin is bored!" She complained. "Where is Jaken?" You asked her. She suddenly giggled. "Rin buried Lord Jaken in the flowers!" She said, pointing to the rose bush. You stared, and just noticed one of Jaken's feet popping out from under the rose bush. You laughed a little. "Well Rin. How about we get him out from under there, and then you could bury him somewhere else. How does that sound?" you suggested. She smiled widely, and nodded. You helped dig Jaken out of the rose bush, then when it was finished, wandered off into the house. Spending time with Rin had been a nice distraction, but you decided that you were still angry. You were walking around, not looking where you were going, when you walked into someone. You looked up to see Sesshoumaru's golden eyes. You frowned slightly. He stared down at you, an emotionless expression on his face. "You should watch where you're going" he said, you were surprised to notice that he didn't have an accusing tone in his voice. In fact, if it hadn't been for his words, you would have thought he was being nice. You stared up at him. He suddenly frowned, and shoved past you roughly. You turned, your anger sparked into fury. You spoke too loudly for the hall, and your words echoed all the way down. "What you do think you're doing?" You asked, angrily. He turned back, slight expression of confusion on his face. Then he turned back around and continued to walk away. You stood still, furious, watching him walk away.

Sesshoumaru's p.o.v

You were walking through the halls of the castle, thinking about the girl, the meeting with Kagura completely gone from your mind. You suddenly walked into something. You looked down, to see the girl's pale green eye's staring up at you (I don't remember if i ever said what colour your eye's are, but, now you know). Her expression quickly changed, she began to frown at you. You kept your face expressionless, all the time wondering what you had done wrong to make her frown at you. "You should watch where you're going" you said, then silently cursed yourself, because your tone was too amicable. You wondered whether she'd noticed, then saw that she had by the confused and thoughful expression spreading over her face. You frowned, annoyed at yourself, and shoved past her. "What you do think you're doing?" you heard her voice loudly through the hall. Her anger was evident. You turned back, wondering again why she was angry at you, then decided to ignore it, and turned around to continue walking. You ended up at your study, and you sat down at a chair by the window. You sat looking out the window, wondering what you had done to the girl. You couldn't think of anything you'd done today which could have suddenly annoyed her. Finally you gave up, and just stared out the window. You heard a soft footstep outside the study door, and walked over to check out what it was. You opened the door to see the girl. She had her back towards you, looking at something on the wall opposite to you. "Yuki?" you questioned softly. She spun round quickly. Surprise flooded over her face."Sesshoumaru" she breathed, her voice tinted with amazement. It annoyed you slightly that you felt happy that her voice held no trace of anger or resentment. "What are you doing here?" you asked, gently. She still stared at you, shock on her face. "I... I was just..." she didn't seem to be able to finish, and just resorted to pointing behind her. You looked over her shoulder and saw a bright purple butterfly crawling up the wall. It suddenly flew off the wall, and fluttered over to her. It landed on her right shoulder. She turned towards it, a smile lingering on her face. "There you are... you shouldn't have flown off like that. How am I meant to find you?" she said to the butterfly. It flew up towards her face, then faded into a purple light which danced around her before merging into her. You stared, amazed. "What was that?" you managed to ask. "Oh, just a little trick I learnt. It keeps me company when I'm bored." she answered, not meeting your eyes. Her face had gone back to the frown she'd had on before. She'd obviously remembered to be annoyed at you for whatever reason. "Why are you pissed off at me?" you asked, bluntly. Her startled eyes flew to your face. "I... I'm not..." she stuttered. You suddenly reached out and slammed her against the wall. You leaned in close and shouted "DON'T LIE TO ME!" Her eye's burned with anger. "Get your hands off me" she said in the quiet, angry voice you'd once heard her use on her brother. "Not until you tell me why you're so angry!" You insisted, pushing her harder against the wall. "You want to know why I'm pissed off?" she said, her voice starting to rise. You swallowed nervously, then nodded. "I'm pissed off at you, because..." she started, taking a deep breath.
