The Effect Sesshoumaru Has On Women
- 3 -
After a while Sesshoumaru had slowed his pace and dismounted from AunUun and walked the rest of the way to Naraku's fortress. The sun was setting revealing a layer of mutliple colors of purple, red, orange, yellow and a dash of blue.Clouds passed over head and a wind blew gently over Sesshoumaru's form. He still remained expressionless but he was enraged at the fact that Naraku would dare tempt The Great Youkai, Sesshoumaru. He stopped before a great oak tree after catching the scent of a hanyou.
In the tree above Sesshoumaru a little black kitten purred contently. It was licking it's forepaw merrily until it noticed Sesshoumaru staring up at it. "How can a hanyou change forms? That's impossible," Sesshoumaru muttered in his arrogant voice. The kitten looked at him and smiled jumping from the tree branch and in a puff of smoke would a stand a little girl around 12 years old. Her little kitten ears twitched at the site of the fierce demon.
"I don't know, I've always had this trait," She said with a giggle. "Why would a full blooded demon be walking around these parts?" She said and circled him playfully. Sesshoumaru closed his eyes and grew bored with the hanyou and went on down the path. The girl pursed her lips and huffed but followed him.
"Why are you following me?" he asked without looking over his shoulder. The girl stopped and thought about it for a second.
"You look like you need some company!" She squeaked and raced after him until she was beside him. "It's rare to find a demon around here. I've always wanted to meet one. My name is Yuki by the way," She looked up at the demon excited to have someone to talk to even if he seemed to be ignoring her.
A thought crossed Sesshoumaru's mind, this girl reminded him of Rin. Rin who was trapped inside Naraku's Fortress. A new determination came forth and he continued his walk ingoring the hanyou that was following him. He didn't care what this person's name was, why should he? He was a careless bastard but then again he has proven to be quite romantic but he did rape that demon hunter to rid himself of the lust.
Inuyasha sighed as he went back to Lady Kaede's village and leaned against the tree. He had been standing over the bone eater's well until the sun had begun to sink behind the mountains. With Kagome injured how was Inuyasha going to find the jewel shards? Yet, he was also worried about the condition of Kagome's injuries. How could his own blade have peirced Kagome like that? Inuyasha wondered constantly until he felt sleep drift over him. In his mind he can still hear the whistle of his sword continously and then the sound of it peircing skin and the gas of breath. Kagome's voice rung out in a scream of pain which jerked Inuyasha from his dream world to reality. Shippou blinked and gapped at Inuyasha who growled, "What are you looking at?"
"You miss Kagome," Shippou said with a sly smirk, "because you're in love with her." Inuyasha thwacked Shippou across his head and then went off towards the well. "Where you going!?" Shippou cried out rubbing his head in pain.
"To wait for Kagome in silence," He said over his shoulder. Shippou watched and decided not to follow. Inuyasha deserves a break from everyone. He's been through a lot. It was rare for the little fox demon to not follow but he had slowly begun to mature and felt Inuyasha and Kagome deserve some time alone. Inuyasha having stabbed her with his own blade that was meant to protect her, betrayed her.
Days float by endlessly but the well remained silent. He dind't hear the rustles of kagome's feet scuttling the bottom of the well or the graon of Kagome falling clumsily in the well. He watched with no sign of Kagome returning. How bad was her injury? Would her time be able to cure such a wound? He began to worry over the human girl. .He went forth to the well and looked inside contemplating on jumping in after Kagome. What if she can't return? He growled and drove his hands over the railing of the well and jumped in.
Kagome sat in the hospital to have her wounds stitched. The doctor was shocked to see such a wound. Kagome had to play dumb and say she was in her grandpa's shed when an sword fell and stuck itself in her shoulder. The doctor just went on to take care of the injury with no more questions. She had been in the hospital for two days and all the while she had seen strange happenings around town. Someone reported seeing a girl blowing people up by touching them. Finally Kagome heard of a car explosion which spread almost all of downtown. On the news which was discussing the car explosion they showed a picture of Jett Nine. The famous martial artist movie star had disappeared during the explosion. Kagome shook her head and switched off the television and went down to the waiting room where she found a young frail woman trembling uncontrollably as she waited for assisstance.
"I...I seen a strange ball of light..." came the voice of a small trembling woman. Her hair was suppose to be blonde but black engulfed the golden locks and made it dread appearing. She was in a terrible state of shock rocking her frail body. She held herself as she waited for a doctor to treat her. Kagome went over to her and put a hand on her shoulder. The girl gasped and moved back a bit. She noticed the caring gaze of Kagome and calmed. "Are you a nurse?" She asked helplessly and Kagome shook her head.
"I like to know about this ball of light you're talking about," Kagome spoke softly to keep her calm.
"I have no clue what it was. But, it zoomed down the street with so much force and hit a car which caused the explosion," The girl said shaking uncontrollably. "I was hit by the ball of light."
Kagome stood up and looked around. "I have to find out what's going on." She made her way out of the hospital to where the accident happened. The concrete was turned over and shattered as if it was mere glass. She traveled down the street and seen all the smoke and fires and finally seen what the girl spoke of. In the air was a ball of light but inside was something. She squinted her eyes and realized it was human beings. When the being spotted Kagome and flew down like an eagle towards her. her eyes grew wide as she stepped back but tripped and fell. The person finally stopped before Kagome and the light vanished to reveal a young girl with sleek black locks and dark eyes.
"You are Higurashi, Kagome." It sounded as though she was stating a fact to Kagome which was true. Kagome sat there staring up at the girl who didn't give off the vibe of a demon or half-demon. So, what was she? "I began my destruction in hopes you'll come around. I have words for you. He is coming and he wants you." She said dangerous as she conveyed the message and then disappeared in a flash of light. Astounded Kagome sat there for a minute or so trying to figure out what she meant. This girl was actauly from her school. How did she gain such awesome powers?
Kagome finally got to her feet and made a dash to her house but in front of her house was a boy with a thick head of dark hair. She cocked an eyebrow as he stared at her, "Do you know who I am?" he asked and Kagome realized that he was that famous guy. She scratched the back of her head.
"I'm really sorry, but I can't help you with your memory right now. I have to get somewhere quick," she replied and the guy was soon over her his hand on her waist.
"Why, you look so beautiful. I care not who I am, but I do care for your name, lovely lady," He said in such a romantic way that made Kagome blush. A famous guy was actaully falling for Kagome, what more could happen?
"Hey, get off Kagome!" came a highly annoying but familiar voice of Inuyasha. Kagome looked over the guy's shoulder and frowned. There stood the arrogant hanyou with his ballcap on to cover his ears. The guy released Kagome and seen the man with long white hair. Strange to see a guy with white hair. "What! You have a problem. I told you to get off Kagome!" He growled and pulled out his sword.
Kagome raced over to him and raised her hands to stop him. "Inuyasha no!" She cried and pushed him away. "You didn't have to come check on me. I was going to come back," Kagome put her hands on her hips and realized Inuyasha was staring at the accident scene.
"What happened here?" He asked.
Sesshoumaru and the catgirl named Yuki continued on their journey to Naraku's fortress. But, nighttime was falling over the heavens driving Sesshoumaru to a campsite. Yuki started the fire for him and Sesshoumaru just allowed himself to relax. He heard a small popping noise and quickly opened his eyes and seen the same girl but older. He watched the young feminine appearance of the cat girl as she sat in a tree. She sat staring off into the heavens which was sprinkled with stars of different sizes. Her hair was long and glittered black into the night. Sesshoumaru stood up and walked over to the tree his steps quiet. He placed his hand on the tree just below Yuki and watched the heavens. "It's calming to watch the stars," He said softly which made Yuki jump slightly. She looked down her face full of expressions. Her hair fell in her face as she watched the demon.
"Can you ever speak full sentences? I don't even know your name," She said and jumped from the tree ever so gracefully in front of Sesshoumaru. "Do you even know my name?" She fixed her kimono which held a small trail behind her. This kimono she wore was snowy white with white sakura's stitched into it. Main obi was white but underneath was bloodred and so was the string keeping her obi tied together. The kimono opened up to reveal her cleavage. Sesshoumaru looked away from the temptation. She was a hanyou, something that should be disgusting in taste, sight, and smell. She smiled and tilted her head. "You can't even look at me? Would you rather me a little girl?" She asked jumped into Sesshoumaru's view. "Why can't you talk to me! You don't have to be so darn quiet all the time! SAY SOMETHING!" She was beginning to grow frustrated with the emotionless demon.
He looked up at her finally a strange glint of sadness. "I am the Great Youkai Sesshoumaru, happy?" he asked sarcastically the glint never leaving. Yuki smiled in relief of breaking through the shell.
"Well, Lord Sesshoumaru, what are you doing around here?" She asked keeping her gaze on him and never leaving.
"I'm looking for someone." He said softly without another word turned and began down the path to Naraku's.
"That's the way to Naraku," She said following after him, "Did Naraku take your friend? Let me help!" She said putting her hand on his shoulder.
"I do not allow hanyous to accompany me."
Yuki frowned at his comment of her being a hanyou. "Just because I'm a hanyou doesn't mean I'm incapable of helping!" She huffed and returned back to her child form. She raced up beside him, "Oh well, I'll just follow."
