Unknown to the occupants in the room they were being watched by Sesshomaru. He decided that he had waited long enough and entered the room. Everyone was quiet as soon as he stepped out of the shadows of the doorway.
"So, this is Kagome? I do say it's impressive that you were able to knock Koga out in one kick. But then again he's not that strong in the first place. (Sesshomaru is not a totally emotion challenged person in this story) It seems that my brother was right about you. You really do hate Naraku, don't you?" Kagome's youki started swirling slightly with rage at the question.
"I hate the basterd with all my being. There aren't any words to describe how much I despise him." Kagome's fists clenched. "I want to watch him keel over in pain like he's done to me so many times." Her eyes flashed their true blue color from the rage she was suppressing. "If I ever had the chance I would slaughter him with my bare hands." Even with her human nails she started to draw blood.
Kilala knew what might happen if she didn't suppress Kagome's anger. There would be a slaughter until Naraku was dead. She trotted up to Kagome and brushed against her side snapping her out of her trance. Kagome started to stroke Kilala's fur to distract herself from the subject being discussed.
Songo walked in, in her traditional battle suit (you know the one) with the hiraikotsu mounted on her back.
"Kagome is a very powerful ally and a dear friend to me. I know she can be trusted." She said while looking at Kagome who was still stroking Kilala and seemed to be zoning out. To snap her out of her trance Songo asked her a question she had wanted to know since she first found out Kagome's secret.
"Kagome? Now that the spell is gone can you show us your true form?" Kagome looked down so you couldn't see her face.
"Which one?"
"Hun?" was chimed in unison from the three, conches, people in the room.
"Which one of me do you want to see? Unlike some people I have 4 forms. This, a full neko, tengu, and a somewhat 'normal' cat form. Which do you want to see?"
'Kagome has different forms too? Though I only have 3.' This pleaged his mind until an other bright light disrupted his thoughts. When the light faded he saw Kagome standing in the middle of the room with a shocking new appearence.
She had the same clothes on but the back of her shirt was ripped out to allow her wings to extend to their full length freely. Her eyes were now their true sapphire blue. Her wingspan was 9 feet. The color of her wings was the most suprizing of all. They were midnight black with dark blue tips. She was gorgeous! Not that she wasn't before, but WOW!
"Wow. This isn't what I expected of an angel." was all that Sesshomaru said before leaving the room whispering something in Rin's ear. Rin smiled and nodded grabbing Inuyasha and Koga and leaving the room. Songo, getting the hint, followed waving good bye to Kagome. Kilala stayed to keep Kagome company.
"Ya' wanna' play Kilala? We could wrestle." With that Kagome turned full cat. (Think Kilala sized Black Panther with saber teeth and only one tail) They both let out a playful growl before pouncing on each other. Time must really fly 'cause an hour later Rin came in to show Kagome her room, only to find Kagome and Kilala panting, ready to pounce again.
"AAHHHHHHH! Kagome you are so KAWAII!" Rin rushed over to a stunned Kagome and latched her arms around Kagome's neck. "Can I please touch your ears!?" Kagome looked like she sighed then she laid down in Rin's lap so she could easily reach her ears. Rin happily started to rub her ears. As soon as she started rubbing, Kagome started to purr. Rin just giggled and kept rubbing her ears.
Sesshomaru had heard his mate's scream and rushed in. He was able to capture the whole thing. He saw Kagome's truly soft and happy side, and if his ears weren't deceiving him he guessed that the growl reverberating through the room was actually a loud purr. This girl actually might make a good addition to their gang. She obviously had a sense of loyalty and a particularly bad side. Maybe she could keep his brother in line. And it took a lot to do that.
Rin stoped rubbing Kagome's ears and let the echoing purr turn into a whisper before she said anything.
"Kagome your room is ready. Do you want to go now or later, so you can finish your wrestling match with Kilala?" suddenly Kagome shot up, pounced on Kilala, and sat down on her so she couldn't get up. Rin smiled and started to walk out only to catch a glimpse of silver hair. She knew it wasn't Inuyasha because he would have made himself known. It had to be her mate Sesshomaru.
'He must have heard me yell.' Thought Rin. Kagome started to follow Rin signifying that their game was done. Rin explained some of the major rules on the way so Kagome wouldn't get into any trouble on her first day. (Yes, Sesshomaru decided that Kagome could join their gang as a permanent member)
"So, if you need anything just call, okay?" Kagome nodded, purred, and brushed up against Rin's leg as if saying 'thank you'. "You're welcome Kagome. See ya'." With that Rin left Kagome to her self. The day finally caught up to her so she decided to take a nap.
In the training room…
Inuyasha was doing his late night training. It usually cleared his head of all thoughts but for some reason today wouldn't go away. Mainly… Kagome wouldn't go away. She kept coming to his mind. No matter what he did it always reminded him of beating the shit out of Naraku, that led to all the things he had done to people, including him, and that led to Kagome. One of the most infuriating stories yet.
'How could a father sell their own child like they were a trinket cluttering their desk? It's barbaric! What could Kagome have done that was so bad when she was just a newborn?' Inuyasha pondered this until he felt a pair of eyes on him. He turned in the direction of the person, only to come face to face with a giant, black, cat with teeth like Kilala's, and familiar blue eyes.
Kagome heard almost rhythmic thumps, which were disturbing her light nap. Since she was already awake and no longer tired she decided to investigate. She found herself in the training room. And the disturbance was found to be Inuyasha. Silently Kagome jumped onto a piece of the obstacle course and watched Inuyasha work. He was really good and seemed to be a master of martial arts. Then he stopped and turned around, looking on edge. His eyes widened when he caught sight of her. Since he knew she was there she decided to get closer.
The cat jumped from her perch on a wall of the obstacle course and approached him. For some reason instead of going on the defensive he actually relaxed in the presence of the large cat. Her scent was familiar and didn't have give off a hint of her wanting to attack him. The cat started to rub against his legs, then grab his shirt in her teeth and pull him towards the punching bag he was attempting to demolish earlier. He didn't get what she was trying to tell him.
Kagome sighed, as best she could in her form, and started to push the stubborn hanyou towards the bag. He still didn't get it! Now she had to change form in order to get it through his thick skull.
Wind surrounded the cat. When it subsided you could see Kagome standing there (fully dressed) looking a lot like a female, black haired version of himself. Only she was a cat and had a tail to match her cat ears. 'Holy shit! That was Kagome!!'
"You can't get much through that thick skull of yours can you? Just because I'm here doesn't mean you have to stop." Kagome crossed her arms and leaned against a punching bag. "Although it was your incessant racket that woke me up." Inuyasha was now out of his stupor.
"Well s-o—rry, I do this every night so get used to it." he replied arrogantly. Kagome seemed to be seriously thinking about something while she just stared at him.
"Hun. So that's why you seem like a pro. I myself have quite a few black belts in the martial arts but I've never come across someone who executed it the way you do." Inuyasha actually blushed at her compliment before uttering a loud "Keh!"
"You're welcome." She said with a sweet smile. She could read him like an open book. Kagome didn't understand it but she felt an odd sense of security when she was around him. Her walls that she built around her heart were being breached. Even if Inuyasha knew it or not… He was making Kagome fall for him.
'Why the hell is she affecting me this way!? I hate it when I can't figure out my feelings damn it! But… Why the HELL can't I stop staring at her lips!!' Inuyasha became flustered at his own thoughts. Kagome noticed this and giggled a bit. "What's so funny!?" screeched the hanyou."Oh, nothing. Good night Inuyasha." Kagome's lips hesitantly brushed Inuyasha's and she walked out of the room leaving a bewildered hanyou to try and guess what it meant.
'Kagome… She just… Kissed me.' Inuyasha lay in his bed thinking about a certain someone. His right hand went to his lips. 'Kagome smells so good up close. Like the world after it rains with a hint of sakura in it.'
