Chapter Two: Trouble at Home

To say my father looked upset was an understatement. Right now, he was furious. The look in his eye made me cringe away from him. He looked like he was about ready to throw something. I gulped
and looked down at the ground. I also wondered what he would do to me. I was in the middle of wondering why he was so mad with me when he decided to finally tell me. His face was already bright red, and he looked like he was going to hit me.

"Wench, how dare you take so long! What where you doing, trying to escape? I knew you would try. Why the hell did you even come back? You're not worth anything anymore," My father yelled, and I took a step back from him, shocked.

"I-I was finishing the laundry, like I said I was doing. It's even drying outside, look," I said, hoping he would calm down soon.

He didn't. Not at all. In fact, he just got angrier. His face seemed to get even redder, and I tried to hold back a sigh. Why the heck was he getting so mad at me? There was really no reason. What was wrong with him? Then, I noticed the bottle of wine on the ground, and my eyes widened. 'Oh... Why didn't you notice that before, stupid girl?' My conscious questioned. I sighed. How could you get your own mind to shut up? It was pretty much impossible. I took another step back from my father, as he moved closer. He had his fists clenched at his sides, and the moment my back touched the hard wall I gulped. The moment my father noticed this, he smirked.

"It seems you have just cornered yourself. I don't even know why I fell for your mother, and had you. You're useless. Why couldn't you be a better daughter? You look so much like your mother, and I hate you for that!" He shouted, and then he slapped me across the cheek.

My head snapped to the side from the force of his slap, and tears stung in my eyes. My cheek stung, and I stayed put until he left the room, which was right after he slapped me. Tears ran down my cheeks, and I quickly wiped them away with the sleeve of my dress. I listened to the sound of my father's footsteps, and waited until I couldn't hear them anymore, before quietly walking to the castle door and opening it back up. Then, I took my chance and ran out of the castle, not paying any attention to where I was going. The only thing I noticed was how I entered the forest. That was about it. I didn't even notice how the forest floor tried to pull me down, and the branches slapped against my skin, bringing blood to the surface. No, I didn't notice any of that. The only thing I noticed was me running as fast as I could, away from my father... Away from the castle, away from everything he ever did to me.

I had finally escaped the castle...

*(Later)*

It had been a while since I ran away from my father. I had cried long enough to where no more tears came out, and I was now sitting with my back pushed up against a tree. The forest floor was wet, but I didn't care. I was just glad I was finally away from him. I can't believe he hit me. The thought alone made a lump form in the middle of my throat, and bitter feelings towards him began to surface. My father had never laid one hand on me... Until then, and he was drunk, probably not thinking clearly. He hit me out of blind anger and hatred... Hatred towards me. His voice continued to scream in my head. I put my hands on either side of my head, and shook it, wishing his voice would go away and leave me alone!

"Please. Leave me alone," I cried, and the moment after, I was able to hear some rustling in the woods before me.

The sun was beginning to fade in the blue sky, and the sound of something moving in the forest made me jump to my feet. I groaned, and then gasped when I noticed who it was. It was Sesshoumaru... The one who I meet earlier. I gaped, but then held my ground, waiting for him to try and tell me to get off "his," spot of the woods now. Instead of ordering me to go away again, like I thought, he just gazed at me with his cold stare for a long, long, time. I was the one to break his stare, and I looked down at the ground before asking him, "What are you doing here? I mean, aren't you going to demand me to move?" I asked, and he didn't even say anything for a moment.

"There is no need. I'm not even staying here," He stated, and I gaped at him.

Suddenly, I had this feeling that I didn't want him to leave... I had just run away from my father, and it was getting dark. I didn't want to be alone. I was deathly afraid of the night, and the things that came with it. Evil things came out during the night. Evil demons did as well. I didn't want to be alone, at all. The moment he began to walk away, after several long minutes of silence, I forced my legs forward and began to follow him. A twig on the forest floor snapped while I was behind him, and he slowly turned around to look at me.

"What are you doing?" He demanded.

I sighed. I'd been caught, so how was I going to explain to him exactly "what I was doing " like he asked me? He sighed and asked me again after a few minutes of me not answering him.

"Human, what are you doing, why are you following me?" Sesshoumaru growled out the question this time.

I had to blink several times before I was able to answer his question. Man, I was going to sound so pathetic when I told him this, but I knew he would know when I was lying. I knew all demons where able to sense when a human was lying to them.

"Um, I ran away from home. My father hit me, and it's getting dark. I don't want to be alone." I whispered, and hoped he would let me follow him.

"Hn. You're weak, like all the other humans. Stay away from me," He stated, coldly, his golden eyes hard.

I gaped at him, and then looked away sadly. I knew I would sound pathetic when I told him, but I don't even know why I thought he would let me travel with him. He was a demon, and a powerful one at that, so why on earth would he let a human like me walk around with him? Other demons would see, and think I was his lover or something. They would take advantage of capturing me, and he would be burdened, so of course he wouldn't let me travel with him. I was so lost in my thoughts, that I didn't realize he had vanished, or simply walked off when I wasn't paying attention.

I let myself fall to the ground. That night had gone from bad, to worse.
