A Mirror's Reflection

Lady Nefertiti

Last time: It was Kikyo that Inuyasha was having sex with after all. She smirked as she put her pants on closing the knot. Being Inuyasha's mate was like heaven to her and she'd be sure to rub it in Kagome's face when she next saw her if Sesshomaru hadn't killed Kagome for being annoying first.


Chapter 6: Rules needn't apply part 1

-Miroku-

He had to get to Inuyasha soon. He'd probably be by the god tree with Kikyo. He always was. Who would've thought that Sango would get so mad at him just because he was reading innocent magazines which only gave him hints and little tidbits of information to use on… (ahem) but of course Sango didn't want him to!

-Sango-

Both she and Shippo were walking to where Miroku had ran off. The baka. She stopped panted and took a deep breath, leaning against a tree. Being with child she was getting really tired. Of course you needed exercise but this wasn't really the idea now was it. How far along was she? She was getting really big…that was why! That was why Miroku was looking at other pretty girls because they were all skinny and pretty.

'But he doesn't grope them or ask them to bare his children now dies he? Why don't you give the guy a benefit of doubt and ask him why he was looking at them or just trust him.' her conscious said to her.

She wasn't feeling very well chasing Miroku like that anyway. She needed to sit down or give up the chase until he came back to where ever he had run off to. She should go back to Kaede right now. Maybe she knew what was wrong with her.

-Kagome and Sesshomaru-

Kagome got up from where she was sitting (which was Sesshomaru's lap) much to his disappointment. He and his beast were quite enjoying it but even he knew that duty called. He had an urgent meeting with the eastern lord and it could not be delayed. He got up after her and ran a hand through his hair, making sure it was straight and perfect not noticing Kagome was staring at him. He didn't care that he smelled like her. She was after all, going to be his mate. He had done what any mate should do, making her feel better, rubbing her back. He and his beast didn't like crying females. He had meant every single word he said to her.

His beast had been overjoyed when she sprayed the wolf with that strange liquid type thing. The wolf that dared claim her as his without any type of mark on her body to prove it. Back to more important things: He wondered whether Kagome could make him a subjugation necklace like Kikyo had made one for Inuyasha. Of course the word would be different not Inuyasha's humiliating 'sit boy. ' He made it a point to ask her later.

-Kagome-

Should she feel embarrassed? She had asked Sesshomaru of all people, 'what do you see when you look at me?' and took it seriously and didn't laugh at her (even though she knew that he wouldn't) Did he really mean it when he complimented her? She never had anyone say things like that to her but Sesshomaru never lied, of this she knew.

-Inuyasha and Kikyo-

Inuyasha and Kikyo made their way back to the village hand in hand, Kikyo just waiting to rub their mating in Kagome's face. Miroku quietly walked up to them and saw this but made no comment. They walked by him and he let them pass. "Inuyasha my friend!" he started turning around.

"Keh! scared of Sango..you hentai? And come here to take refuge away from her?" Inuyasha said looking over his shoulder.

"I wouldn't be talking! I'm not the only one!" Miroku said.

"Oh no! Is this going to happen when you get pregnant Kikyo?" Inuyasha said looking horrified. Miroku's eye twitched and he calmly walked over and hit him over the head with the staff he was holding. Baka.

(CLANG!)

"Baka! Kikyo is DEAD, she cannot have pups, children or whatever!" Miroku said. Any idiot would know that!" and then for good measure he hit him again.

(CLANG!)

'Now I have to find my beautiful wife and see if she's alright.' Miroku thought. He shouldn't be running away from her! He should be by her side in case she got hurt or something. What kind of husband or rather father was he?

Inuyasha stared at his retreating back and then looked at his mate Kikyo. That's right. He wouldn't have any pups. Kikyo saw him thinking, really thinking which was odd and then she cooed. "O koi do you really believe him? I am a Miko. I can do anything. Even have children!" he nodded at her then looked back at Miroku. He didn't believe her and why should he? He knew what he had to do. Ask Kagome for forgiveness, make her trust him, mate him and have puppies with him, with a little Kikyo on the side. With a set determination he walked off with Kikyo into the village.

Just because Kagome got angry at him and ran off with Sesshomaru didn't mean a thing. They didn't even get along. Seriously, two people who tried to kill each other or rather harm each other would actually start to like each other? Not even. Little did he know that both Kagome and Sesshomaru were more than just getting along. Little did he know that his words really shattered Kagome this time. But he had forgotten since he was so mad.

'You should look in the mirror at yourself! You're just a reflection of the better one! The REAL one! The mirror shows you Kikyo, not Kagome!'

Both walked into Kaede's hut and Sango and her (Kaede) just looked up. They had been up to no good again hadn't they? She sighed and set to making the stew again. Her sister Kikyo and Inuyasha would never learn, of this she knew. Sango had told her what had been going on, leaving out the part about Miroku and his perverted magazines and her chasing him around the village. Perhaps it was better for young Kagome to be in Lord Sesshomaru's hands after all, though at first she had been hesitant. She had seen how he killed a person if he didn't like even a single sentence you said.

Inuyasha mumbled something about not being hungry and walked out saying he needed a walk. When he left he started to 'fly' west where no doubt Kagome and Sesshomaru were headed. He was going to drag Kagome kicking and screaming if he had too! He wanted children and he wanted them from her…..

-Kagome and Sesshomaru-

"You think Kouga will stay away from us now?" Kagome asked him hopefully. He nodded. If the wolf was smart he'd steer clear unless he wanted to get a shot of that poison Kagome carried with her or he'd gladly poison him with his claws that glowed green. "Hey! There are no enemies here. Turn that off Sesshomaru before someone gets hurt!" Kagome said huffing. Great and just when she was about to kiss him too. If she had hugged him he would've accidentally poisoned her! He did love decapitating and poisoning people after all.

Anyway they were almost to the castle now and since it had a barrier around it Kouga wouldn't be able to get to her or into his castle. Kagome silently looked up at her savior and wondered how she would be recognized as herself and respected now that she was with him. She did not want to be Kikyo. She wanted to be herself and she would stay here as long as possible until it happened and no Sesshomaru would throw her out or she'd purify his ass with damn pleasure.

-Sesshomaru-

She was thinking about something…. naughty maybe? And looked up at him and it made her scent change. Why had he let her accompany him anyway? Just a teacher to Rin? No…she was better than that and he'd make sure she was happy here while she was here. Would she ask to go back to Inuyasha once she'd finished here? He growled inwardly. She'd probably forgive that bastard even though he called her such names and insulted her very existence/being! Well at least he was here in time for the meeting with the eastern lord and he wouldn't be waiting.

He was thinking about her as they walked together in silence and also what her precense here in the palace would be for now. The Lord's Miko. That actually sounded kind of nice. His Miko. Every Lord needed a Miko.

-Eastern lord- (In Sesshomaru's study)

Hiko-sama, lord of the eastern lands sensed Sesshomaru walk into the palace and he stood up. A good thing he wasn't waiting long. He stood staring into the fireplace and thought about the battles that went on between their lands. Both him and Sesshomaru were trying to sign a peace treaty, call a truce but it was hard since both lords were stubborn and didn't quite see eye to eye.

Hiko also sensed a female with Sesshomaru. There were rumors going around about Sesshomaru that a certain powerful Miko had caught his eye, the Miko of the Shikon-no-tama that is. Could this be her that he had gone to get? He wanted to meet this Miko that everyone respected and talked about. Hiko sat back down and waited for them to come into the study.


Lady Nefertiti: Please read and review! thanks.

Inuyasha: "You do realize that you left me in the middle of no where in a forest right!?"
