Changing from skipping to a wild run, Kagome passed by the well without noticing it. There was no way in hell that she would be going home soon now. First Inuyasha breaks her heart, then he forces her home and she is not allowed to return? Oh, Inuyasha passed Kagome's line when he didn't allow her to return. This greatly infuriated Kagome even more, even beyond her boiling point! Running into the forest, she vowed another vow that she would most defiantly hurt Inuyasha. Even if in the process if she should die, her wretched soul would return to make Inuyasha's life a hell. To make Inuyasha's own sweet mornings and days into worst nightmares that he must live in day after day. Inuyasha's own life would be a nightmare; a great, terrible, bittersweet nightmare.

Running, she threw her head back and laughed at her great and terrible evil thoughts. She was over-joyed, knowing Inuyasha will suffer as well. Now it will not only be her own heart suffering alone, for Inuyasha would join her suffering heart as well. And if it was possible, Kagome would also bring Kikyo to suffer with her heart and Inuyasha. At this thought, Kagome still hung her head back as she roared out laughter and raised her arms into the air. But then, Kagome crashed into a tree. Kagome rolled on the floor grasping at her neck with a purple face. Getting on her knees, she coughed and gasped for air. Once she was a bit recovered, she remained on the ground trying to regulate her breathing as she mumbled, "I mustn't laugh when I'm running. No Kagome, I can risk killing myself like this. Then who will make Inuyasha and Kikyo suffer? Me, that's who will make Inuyasha and Kikyo suffer, me! Me, me, me!" And once more she threw her head back and laughed, but her laugh was cut short with a cough.

"Gah," Kagome screamed as she stood and stumbled over to the tree that she had previously made contact with. Fixing the bag on her bag, she stood among the peeking roots of the tree and stabbed her finger into it's bark. "You better watch yourself," she said sternly to the tree, "because you don't know me. I can purify your ass and there ain't nothing you can do about it, got it? I said, did you get it!"

But the tree said nothing in response. It stood there, silent and peaceful, with wind playing on its leafs. Closing one eye, Kagome stared down at the bark with one beady eye of hers, "Ha, so pathetic! You're so frighten you can't even talk!"

Kagome closed her beady eye and opened both of them. Laughing jolly, she patted the tree and said, "I was joking, you shouldn't be frighten! I can't purify a tree, in fact, I can't purify anything at all! Isn't that pathetic of me! Oh, and I bet that's another reason why Inuyasha left me; Kikyo can purify anything."

More wind rustled through the tree, now making the leafs swoosh and swish in there own language. Kagome nodded her head and patted the tree some more. "Yes, Inuyasha chose Kikyo over me, can you believe it? I should spit in his eye, don't you think, spit so hard it'll leave him blind!"

Now the wind played even harder on the tree, making some of it's branches crack and squeak. Kagome closed her eyes and nodded again and huffed up. "You're asking me? How the hell should I know why he chose something dead than something alive?" She set her hand on the bark again and once again patted it some more, "I think he has one of those weird fetishes, you know? Those fetishes that involve dead things."

The wind began to calm down, bringing the noises of the tree down. The swish and swoosh became quieter, as if they almost whispered. And then Kagome became tear-eyed and her bottom lip trembled. With a loud wail, she wrapped her arms around the large tree trunk and cried into it. "You know me so well! It's almost like were we friends for such a long time." And after a few minutes crying into the tree she whispered, "I love you..."

"Who? The tree or my idiot brother?"

Kagome gasped and released the tree. Whirling around, she let out a squeak of joy. "Lord Sesshomaru, you have come to aid me! Please tell me you'll help me?"

Not really sure of what the Miko in front of him was saying, he could care less because he helped no one. "No."

Kagome's happy façade fell. And just as she did, she threw herself onto her knees and cried into her hands. "I should have known! If Inuyasha was an idiot and a stupid dog, why shouldn't his older brother be as well? Not to mention meanness also runs in their family."

"Miko, you are truly pathetic and foolish. You cry and then you insult me? By now you won't even live another moment crying." Sesshomaru snarled at her.

By then Sesshomaru was a bit amazed as Kagome quickly picked herself up from the floor and ran behind him. Peeking from beside his fur pelt she said seriously, "You see Lord Sesshomaru, I plan to make Inuyasha suffer!" Then she switched sides, peeking on his left side, "Suffer so much, that his own life is a living nightmare!" Then Sesshomaru stared down at Miko who was then between his legs with her face staring up at him, "And I need your help accomplish it! Don't you want Inuyasha to suffer as well?" Then she was behind him once again. Her back to his and his back to hers, "Together we can defeat him! Together we can make him suffer and beg on his knees before us for mercy!"

Now Kagome clung to his knees, bottom lip trembling as her eyes squirted tears from them, "So, would you please help me?"

It took a moment before Sesshomaru responded, "You expect me to help a Miko who speaks to trees, insults me, then crawls around my body like a flea?"

"Yes!" Kagome screamed at him angrily then calmed herself, "I mean, it will bring us both joy and fun! Not to mention that there are many benefits from this!"

Kagome squealed as Sesshomaru kicked her off his leg. Sitting up, she saw the Demon Lord walk away from her. "I said no before, and my answer remains so."

But Kagome was upon him again indeed, just like Sesshomaru had described her; a flea. "You will finally get Tetsusaiga, the sword that you have always wanted most! If I somehow removed that sword from that barrier, then sure enough I can remove the sword's barrier and wha-la! You are then the most powerful Dog Demon ever alive! You will wield both Bakusaigi and Tetsusaiga then! So powerful, our powerful Lord Dog Demon. Can you just imagine it, Lord Sesshomaru? The power in your hands, your ability to rule anything you want, to have whatever you what, ultimate power-"

Sesshomaru removed Kagome from his fur felt and wrapped his hand around her throat. "You know, you talk to much," he told her, "you had my attention when you said you would break Tetsusaiga's barrier. But even so, Miko, it still won't please me enough."

Kagome removed his hand from her throat and said, "After Inuyasha dies or goes crazy from his suffering state, you can have his woman Kikyo!"

Sesshomaru gave a face so disgusted, that it seemed almost as if he was staring at a gigantic pile of feces right in front of him. Kagome smiled and huffed up a little as she said, "I knew I wasn't the only one who stared at her like she is a pile of-"

"Take our bargain serious, Miko."

Kagome sighed and slammed a finger at the corner of her mouth. And after one second she said to him, "Tell you what. I'll give you anything you desire. Even while we are causing Inuyasha to suffer, you can think of you want. And when Inuyasha finally dies or whatever, I'll give you what you want. And if I'm not able to keep promise, you can kill me and eat me!"

Sesshomaru sighed softly and looked down. Was it wise to embark in such a mission with this Miko? With this Miko that didn't seem to have all her sanity? But if he does embark on the mission, Tetsusaiga would finally be he his and indeed, he would be the most powerful Demon Lord ever alive. But he could think no further as Kagome's head was once more between his legs and staring up at him almost accusingly.

"Hurry up doggy boy, make up your decisions! I want to get to Inuyasha Punishment as fast as I can!" She said to him.

"What insolence you have Miko. Remove yourself from there before I exterminate you." He growled down at her.

With a squeak, Kagome was gone from between his legs and stood before him once more very seriously and held one hand out to him. "Deal, Lord Sesshomaru?"

"Deal." Was all Sesshomaru replied and walked around her, ignoring her hand shake.

Kagome let out a laugh and twirled. And she twirled and twirled and ran to Lord Sesshomaru and twirled some more.

"Stop it."

Kagome stopped twirling and decided to laugh evilly instead as she walked behind him.

"Miko, stop."

Stopping her evil laugh she began to hum then. But she was never a really good singer or a hummer, and her noises that protruded from her mouth scrapped the insides of Sesshomaru's ears. Stopping abruptly, it made Kagome crash into his back and stop her humming. Staring at her over his shoulder deathly he hissed at her, "Sing, hum, twirl laugh, or even whistle, you shall be killed. Do I make myself clear, Miko?"

Kagome gave a firm nod, "Clear as crystal water, My Lord!"

Satisfied, Sesshomaru continued his walk with a Miko behind him that constantly stopped before each tree to a have a small conversation with.
