Chapter 2: Japan
In just on week Captain Kain had the four of them in Nagasaki's port.
"Sayonara, my friends!" Captain Kain yelled waving from the Sea Pearl.
"Sayonara!" Kikyou yelled back to him, as she waved goodbye.
When Kagome turned to look at the city of Nagasaki, her stunning eyes widened at the sight before her; the elegantly built buildings gracefully lined upon the dirt road, the vivid colors of the market place; red, blue, green, gold, purple, pink, orange etc.
When Kikyou and Kagura gasped, Kagome just nodded, it was stunning in an alien way.
"W-well, umm, lets get going shall we?" Kagura said in an awed voice, her dark brown eyes still glued on the sight before them.
When all of them had mounted their horse, with the pack horses in tow they rode North East.
It took them 1 day to reach a small town near the channel of water that they four of them had to cross in order to reach Kino's Island
"Where exactly are we going?" Kikyou asked Kagura.
"Well you see back at home I did some snooping and I found that there is a town in my mother's old journal called Edo, it was the village that my mother lived in before she, foolishly married my father." Kagura explained to them, " and I believe that we can live without my father finding us, if he does try to."
"I see, do you really think he'll try to find us?" Kagome asked her nervously.
"Well we do have Souta and my father would probably do anything to get him back." Kagura said meaningfully.
"Well if he does come we can just keep hiding; sooner or later he'll just find another woman with a son, right?" Kagome said hopefully.
"Maybe," Kagura said indecisively.
They rode in silence for a few moments before it started to rain, hard.
"We need to get out of here!" Kagura yelled.
"I know, but where will we go?" Kagome shouted back.
"I don't care! We just need to get out of the rain!". Was the only response Kagome got before the horses sped off.
They rode hard for several minutes before reaching a large forest, whose trees where so large that the rain was reduced to drizzle beneath them.
"We'll have to rest here for the night." Kagura said, dripping from head-to-toe like the rest of them.
"Hai." Kagome and Kikyou replied in unison.
The sound of someone screaming woke Kagome from her slumber. She left her make-shift bed on the forest floor and peeked her head through the log willowy branches of the tree they where sleeping under, just in time to see a giant bear youkai chasing a small girl. Grabbing the bow she got from the last village they were at, Kagome knocked an arrow, aimed for the bear's head and let it fly, all in one fluid motion. She raced over to the young girl.
"Arigato, for saving me, milady " The petit girl said gratefully. She had long wavy brown hair with a small side ponytail and large chocolate brown eyes set in a pale heart shaped face.
"It was nothing," Kagome replied with a warm smile.
"Well, arigato any way," the small girl said , smiling back. "My names Rin by the way. What's your name?'
Kagome laughed, "I'm Kagome ."
"Kagome?" Kagura asked as she groggily poked her head out of the tree branches.
"Who is she?" Rin asked quietly, frightened by her red eyes.
"Oh don't worry that's just my step-sister, Kagura. As harmless as a kitten!" Kagome told her winking.
Rin blushed a bright red as her stomach growled, demanding to be fed. "Oh how inconsiderate of me, here come with me I'll get you something to eat. You must be starving!" Kagome told Rin with a friendly smile.
He raced through the forest, tracking his ward's sent ,worried he picked up his pace, hoping she would be alright.
Sesshomaru stopped when he came to the edge of a small clearing lifting his head and discreetly smelling the air, his sensitive nose was assaulted by the smell of a dead bear youkai. But beneath that was the sent of his ward, Rin and a strange sent of some unknown humans. The first of the humans smelt of, Sesshomaru wrinkled his nose in slight distaste, cloth diapers and the subtle sent of oak trees, the second sent was very feminine; roses and jasmine. The third person smelled of a crisp mountain breeze. But it was the forth sent that caught Sesshomaru's attention, it was the most divine sent he had ever smelled! This person, most definitely a female, emitted the most scrumptious sent of a warm spring breeze and sakura's mixed with the faint aroma of vanilla.
He stalked across the clearing following the sent of his ward and the unidentified mortals, pausing outside the long graceful braches of the weeping willow where Rin was staying. Slowly he pulling back the braches to find himself staring into wide, beautiful sapphire blue eyes.
