Saved by Sesshomaru
Ch. 5
Rosie hater: I hope you like ch.5.
"Rin found Sesshomaru-sama's book!" She holds it up triumphantly.
"Very good." He takes it from her and shifts through the pages. "Oh no! He's a hypnotist and mind-controller! He –" He stops adruptly, hearing a voice in his mind.
-Jakken.-
-Whose there? How DARE you intrude in my mind! Do you know who I am?-
-Must I give you another flying lesson?-
-Lady Kagome! My apologies!-
-Just shut up and pay attention damn it!-
-Yes my Lady!-
-Go get Lord Sesshomaru!-
-Lord Ryu is a hypnotist and a mind-controller!-
-It's a little late to tell me that!-
-Are you alright my Lady?-
-…not really. Go get Sesshomaru! Now!-
-But what about you? I won't get back till tomorrow!-
-I'll be fine! Take Rin with you! Go NOW!-
"Rin go get Ah-un, now!"
"Yes Master Jakken!" She runs out of the room.
-Don't die or Lord Sesshomaru will kill me!-
-The you better move real fast cause I don't know what Lord Ryu is planning!-
(Meanwhile.)
"I've noticed that you and Lord Sesshomaru don't share a room. I find that rather odd. If you are his Lady, there should only be one room. I'm very curious as to the reason behind that."
"We… like our space." Her voice sounds distant.
"Then you are not mates. So I don't see a problem with him marrying my sister. But you on the other hand, must leave him."
"…no."
(Outside.)
"Why do we need Ah-un Master Jakken?"
"We're going to get Lord Sesshomaru."
"Where's Okaa-san?"
"Lady Kagome is going to wait here for us. Get moving Ah-un we need to get to the Eastern castle fast!"
(They reach the Eastern castle close to midnight.)
"What are you here for?" A servant starts accusing them.
"I need to speak with Lord Sesshomaru immediately!"
"I'm afraid I cannot allow that. You must leave at once!"
"I just got here and I'm not leaving until I see my Lord! So you either show me where to find him or get out of my way!"
"What are you doing here Jakken?" Sesshomaru appears behind the maid.
"Do you know him Lord Sesshomaru?" The maid asks, startled by his sudden appearance.
"Yes, he works for me. Leave."
"Yes sir." She runs off.
"What do you want?"
"Otou-san!" Rin jumps into Sesshy's arms crying.
"What is the meaning of this?"
"Okaa-san is in trouble!" She cries.
( the Western castle.)
"You cannot fight me little miko."
"Yes… I can." He is suddenly blinded by white light. She escapes out of his arm, grabs his wrist and attempts to purify him.
"AAAAA!" He screams because of the sharp pain escalating through him from his wrist. She lets go after 15 minutes of him thrashing at her and trying to throw her away from him. Sesshy's door being closer, she runs into his room and baracades herself in.
"You bitch! You'll pay for that!" He collapses, drained from purification.
-Safe for now. But for how long? Please get here soon.-
( the Eastern castle.)
"A few hours after your departure a visitor showed up."
"That's unexpected."
"It was planned. He came to go after Lady Kagome."
"He's from here isn't he?" Sesshy states rather then asks.
"Yes, Lord Ryu."
"Damn him! I should've expected something like this from that sadistic bastard and warned her! Where is she?" He actually sound a little worried. (XX)
"Back at the castle."
"You LEFT her there with HIM!"
"I'm sorry my Lord! But she told me to take Rin and come get you immediately! She said she would hold down the fort just like she told you she could! I tried to argue with her but she threatened me!"
Sesshy mentally smacks himself. –I should've known this would happen. Of course Kagome would fight him off and protect Rin. But she's really put herself in danger this time. Sometimes I think she's stupid.-
"My Lord?" Jakken gets his attention.
"Let's leave. Now."
"Rin, you have to let go of Lord Sesshomaru so he can save Lady Kagome!"
"Is Otou-san going to help Okaa-san?" She looks up at him with big watery eyes.
"Yes, I will get you Okaa-san back."
"Yay!" She hugs him.
"I suggest you take your time coming back with Rin, Jakken."
"Yes my Lord."
Sesshomaru takes off towards his castle. –That nosy bastard won't leave me alone till I marry his brain-dead sister.nd I had to be formal and write a letter to his father telling him that I already had a Lady. The only thing I didn't do for Ryu is paint a target on her! He always has to annoy me. Well this time he's done it, I'll kill him if he hurts her. She really cares for Rin. Rin would hate me if I let anything happen to her. That's not your only reason. I thought I ditched you. And you know I'm right. Get lost, I don't need you. I'm part of your mind moron. There's no way you can get rid of me. I can bother you whenever I want. Silence!-
( the Western castle.)
-Is he out?- She unbarricades Sesshy's door, unlocks it and looks out into the hallway. Nothing. –Looks safe enough.- She quietly slips out of Sesshy's room and proceeds to sneak by the door to her room. As son as she's past the door she books it down the hallway. She darts around the corner, running into someone head-on. She immediately realizes who it is and puts distance between them.
"Why good morning Lady Kagome. Perhaps we got off on the wrong foot yesterday. I'm sure we could be good friends."
-I bet there's more then friendship on his mind.-
"You don't want to talk to me? C'mon, I was only playing around yesterday. It's no big deal." He steps closer but she backs farther away.
-You're a player. A sick twisted freak.-
He uses a bit of his demon speed to appear in front of her and pick her up, holding her in his arms before she could blink.
"Put me down!"
"No. I'll give you a choice, Lady Kagome. You can leave Lord Sesshomaru and come with me, or I'll have to kill you. I think you'll find coming with me much more beneficial. I am a lot better then Lord Sesshomaru." His eyes lock with hers and she's frozen. "I can do a lot more for you then he can, my dear. Leave him, say yes to me."
"I… can't." Her voice is distant.
-Kagome.- Sesshy's voice sounds in her head.
-Sesshy?-
-You sound weak, what's going on?-
-Is Rin ok?-
-She's fine. How are you faring?-
-…fine.-
-I'm on my way.-
"You must make your decision my dear." He whispers in her ear. "He is nothing to you. You don't like him."
"Sesshy…" Her mind goes blank. –Fight it Kagome! Fight him! If not for yourself then fight him for Rin! Don't give in!- She starts to glow with white light tinged with blue. –That's it! Use your powers! He's another Inuyasha! There is no more hiding! FIGHT!- "No!" She yells, breaking his hold on her and taring herself away from him, still glowing.
"How did you break my spell? There's no way you could've done that!"
"How DARE you try to defile me! I am the Lady of the Western Lands! This is MY castle!" He eyes turn from brown to glowing completely dark blue. The white glow around her turns to flames. "You are an insult to my Lord! You have disrespected him! You will pay!"
"Holy shit! How much power do you have? Amazing! So… beautiful!" A bow and quiver of arrows appear in her hands. –Oh shit.-
"How DARE you be so dishonorable to MY Lord Sesshomaru!" She notches an arrow to her bow and looses it. The arrow becomes embedded in the wall, inches from Lord Ryu's face.
-Damn, she's a good archer.- He runs, quite literally, for his life. She chases him, shooting arrow after arrow.
(w/ Sesshy.)
"What the heck is that?" He stops for a minute.
"What is it my Lord?"Jakken comes up beside him with Ah-un and Rin. "Is something wrong?"
"There's a huge source of power emitting from the castle."
"Is it Lord Ryu or Lady Kagome? The servants are in hiding."
"It's…" He concentrates on the aura. "Kagome…?"
"Is Okaa-san ok?" Rin pipes up.
"I can't tell. We're a bit out of range."
( the Western castle.)
Lord Ryu is trying to run and fend off arrows at the same time. "What am I doing? She's a woman, I should just attack her." He stops running, turns around and charges. He takes an arrow to the shoulder but gets close enough that he pulls out a dagger and slices the string on her bow.
"You think this bow is my only attack? You are sadly mistaken." She drops the bow and arrows. "You'll be lucky if you survive." Her voice has become cold. Blue flames appear in her hands, she starts chucking balls of fire at him.
