Chapter 3: New little Friend and Old Enemy
SW09: Hey there Sorry if I kept you waiting toooo long. Hope you like and please enjoy. Don't forget to review. The song mention is song to the moon by Andy Williams but I heard Sarah brightmam sing it.
For some reason in this kingdom, my sense of direction is challenged... Never have I been so directionally challenged. Or maybe it was because Jin flew me instead of walked. I marveled at the scenery. Around the main fortress was a beautiful clearing with wild flowers of all colors. Then I saw a blur of orange and green in the distance. I giggled to myself... Which I couldn't believe I did but Jin had kept his promise to the little one name Rin.
"Hey Lady Kagome!" I heard a familiar voice call out to me. I smiled. A friendly face! Miroku was dressed in his monk wardrobe.
"What are you doing here?" Miroku asked as he came to my pace of walking. I showed him the paper. Then I froze... I didn't come to be a healer, I came to be a teacher. I ran back towards the fortress. Miroku stared at me dumbfounded. He decided to wait for her since she seemed new to the place.
As I ran towards the study that I once was in. I ran into Sesshomaru.
"Miko, why are you back here?" His cold calm voice seem to have frozen me. I showed him the paper. "You will be a healer…It is my decision to see where you fit not you." And like that he went around me like I wasn't there.
I was furious. I wanted to help the kid that needed to be educate. I balled up a piece of paper from my pad and was about to throw it when a hand stopped me.
"Whoa, Missy. If you value your life I suggest you dont do that." It was Jin. He was panting and looked like he had just came from a training session. I pouted... My plan to throw it at lord ice fart was spoiled.
I know its not what you want but just stick with it. You're intelligence. I'm sure he'll see you fit for the wasn't that bad after all... He was proving to be a great friend. I smiled and nodded.
"Huh General Jin, Lady Kagome." Miroku greeted us as we started to cross the bridge. " I'll take Lady Kagome from here."
"Ahhh the perverted monk..." Jim smirked and crossed his arms. "You aren't up to anything are you?"
"Jin my friend I'm hurt... I would do no such thing. I'm happily married and my dear rose Sango would kill me." Miroku laughed.
"I see you love your life!" Jin said. "Take care of Lady Kagome... One scratch or squeeze and you'll be dealing with me." I blushed lightly.
As we made our way home ,something didn't seem right... More like with Sango. It was way too silence. She was a busy body from the first time we met.
"Sango, dear?" Miroku yelled as he enter his home. "I'm home!"
No answer still.. So we searched the house. He pointed left and took off in that direction. As I went to the bathroom door I heard rustling. I knocked firmly yet lightly to let whoever it was know I was there.
The door creaked open after I had knocked like someone had gave me permission to enter. As I entered I saw Sango hunched over.
"I didn't know what to do... I'm a demon slayer not a healer or mid wife." Sango said as she tried to stand. She screamed as it seem a wave of pain probably a contraction hit.
Suddenly the thought of talking again around these new people came up. I helped with tons of deliveries in villages and I wrote down my orders but writing down was a hassle in some situations. My vow is about to be broke again... Maybe it was safe to talk around this couple. I did feel safe and wanted.
"KAGOME! Help please!" Sango said as she bent over. I walked her to a near room and got a futon and made sure she was comfortable. Miroku must've known what the scream was and came with cloths to use.
I broke my vow around them. "Miroku I need some hot water." My voice was so soft and low he looked at me with surprise.
"My… my your voice is quite heavenly,Kagome..."
"Miroku!" Sango and said in unison.
In a split second he was gone to fetch the hot water.
"I'm going to need you to breathe Sango-sama." I whispered. She heard my whisper and nodded. I begin hum softly as my hands started to glow white. I put my left hand on her bump to ease the pain equally and calm the baby. Miroku came back and I instructed him to have one cloth soaking for the baby to stay warm and another to put on her head. But when I looked I saw Miroku putting one on his head too. To think he is a healer.
Sango push for the first time and she screamed. With her first push I began to sing softly to the baby.
Little one oh little one. Come on and see the big world today. We are waiting just for you.
A few more pushes and Sango was smiling again. Here I held a raven haired brown eyed little baby girl. I handed her to her mother and father.
"Oh Kagome, thank you. You made it seem so easy and pain free."Sango said happily.
"Ahh little one is beautiful." Miroku said as she looked up at him. The baby looked at both of them smiling.
"Her name..."Miroku thought aloud as if he was forgetting it "...her name will be Hikari for she is our first light." Miroku nuzzled his nose with Sango's nose. She completely agreed with him. I got up to leave to give them some time together.
The moon was bright and captivating. I sung a heartfelt song and didn't care who heard it. It felt like a release from pressure. As the jewel that I protected since I was born started to glow brightly and become active. The elements were stirred up and seem to dance as I sung. To think this little jewel was able to do so much. I managed to find a river that seemed to glisten under the moon so I sat on the edge and look at the stars. An star is born I thought. I was in the mood for more singing and so I decided to sing more.
~0~0~
I was restless after everyone was dismissed. That Miko was weird to think I would just change her position simply because of a piece of paper. The girl didn't even talk so why would I want her to teach Rin anything… I went and stood out on the balcony. I looked up there was a dot formed in the night sky. A star was born. There was an aura spike and after the spike immediately the wind picked up and the waves rippled but not to the point of splashing over. Ally or threat I took off in a jog to see what was causing the disturbance. It was an enchanting force from a beautiful voice. I came upon a find to find a girl singing and like before the elements seem to be dancing around her. The water seems to be whirling around her as the wind gently caressing her hair.
My Huckleberry friend,
Moon River, and me
Old dream maker, you heart breaker,
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way,
Two drifters, off to see the world,
There's such a lot of world to see…
The girl reached out to the moon as if she was trying to grab the moon. She continued to sing.
We're after the same rainbows end,
Waitin' round the bend,
My Huckleberry friend,
Moon River, and me
As she ended I found myself peaceful and sleep was ready to consume me. Who is this girl? I heard her giggle as if talking to herself. She stared at the stars… I decided to make myself known.
~0~0~
I was so into the song, I completely forgot to check to check my surrounding. There in all his glory was Lord Sesshomaru. He seemed to be glowing from the moonlight. I was stunned at the beauty. I couldn't let him know who I was. There was someone else too because instantly I was lifted off edge and into some arms and into to the woods immediately after.
Sesshomaru was shocked that in an instant the mysterious girl was gone and someone had taken her in front of him. He was furious. I get what I want Sesshomaru thought. He wanted to know who she was and the opportunity was gone. Immediately he was after the kidnapped and the kidnapper.
~0~0~
I kicked and punched which slowly loosen the grip of the kidnapper.
"my little miko, we meet again."
I froze out of shock and fear…This man was …half-youkai….was the terror I was running from. What was I thinking…I left the house with no weapons and didn't put up a barrier.
"Won't you sing for me again?"
I shook my head and mustered up all the energy I needed to purify him to hell for good. My hands blazed blue as I placed my hands on his back he fell to the ground and took me with him.
"Foolish Girl!" He threw me as he made his way back to standing. The black spider on his back smoked from where I placed my hands. He paused as of surveying the area. "He's too close for me to try again. But know I will get you, one way or another."
I laid there trying to figure out what to do… I couldn't stay here like I wanted. I started to tear up. I couldn't never stay anywhere without him or someone trying to get the jewel or mate me. I sigh. No sense for crying.
"Miko." He broke my thoughts.
I looked up and he offered me a hand. I was shocked. He didn't seem to be the 'I'll give you a hand or help you up' type. I took and stood up. A bruised hip was nothing from what I've suffered before.
I nodded and whispered a thank you…
"It seems trouble follows you everywhere. You are staying in the fortress till further notice." I moved away from his grasp and stared.
Firmly and confidently I was about to break my vow …third times in one day…Kinda night…
"I will leave…"I said and I turned to leave to only be cradled into his arms and off to the air.
"My words are final." He said calmly. I struggled for a while till I gave up, his grip was solid steel. I'll try and leave tomorrow I thought.
