Chapter 2
The talked all the way to Sarah's classroom about art and the fact that she is only here to learn the class work. Sarah didn't want to finish the tour so soon, she liked Sesshomaru's company and how he was almost as smart as her.
"Sarah-san, don't look so down it is not a look well suited for you." He said. She nodded and then went back to talking.
"Sarah-san? Would it be easy to meet at the soccer field when school gets out." He asked her.
"Yes I think that will work out." She said.
"Yes but before we leave for my home you should be worried about my father." He said, Sarah looked at him in confusion and he softly chuckled at how cute she was. He stopped and gave himself a mental shake at the thought.
"Well he always acts odd when I bring a girl home to even study with and always embarrasses me and the girl." Sesshomaru said.
"Great another thing to be bothered with today." Sarah said.
"What do you mean by that Sarah-san?" He asked her.
"Well Sessho-sama I know Kagome-chan and the others will wonder what is going on." She said. Sesshomaru smiled at the thought of her overwhelmed at their attempts to get her to talk.
"We may have to ask her to keep inu-chan over at kagome-chan's house. Hopefully he will stay there until we can get done at your house Sessho-sama." She added. After a while they got close to Sarah's class room.
"...Sessho-sama?" she asked
"Ya?" he replyed to her.
"Thanks for showing me around school. And thanks for being my first true friend." Said Sarah. He nodded to her and patted her shoulder and she smiled. Hearing someone shouting they both looked back behind them and saw a tall boy with his hair in a tall pony tail waving at them.
"Hey! Ice king!" He was yelling. Sarah heard a groan next to and saw that Sesshomaru had his hand on his head.
"oh shit. It's Koga and Naraku." Said Sesshomaru with discuss in his voice. Sarah watched as the two boys walked close to them, she guessed that the brown pony tailed one was Koga buy guess, as well as Naraku the black haired boy with his hair tied up but almost colder looking as Seshomaru. He was about the same height as Koga but a little taller. As they were coming to the two of them Koga looked at Sarah as if she was a piece of candy, Naraku looked as if he didn't care at all.
"Well look who it is! It's ice prince and, well who's this! I never seen you before, Your new aren't you sweetheart?" Koga said. Sesshomaru felt his anger rising at his leacher ways.
"Yes, I'm new. My name is Sarah, and who are you?" she said politely.
"Oh ware are my manners! I'm Koga. And this is my friend Naraku." Koga said
"It is nice to meet you Koga, and you as well too Naraku. Now tell me this Koga, why do you call Sessho-sama...My escort around school, ice prince? If you have the curtsy of answering my question." Asked Sarah with fire in her eyes.
"Well isn't someone vary formal. Well maybe I will tell you. Just cause your cute. Would you like to go on a date with me?" he said taking her hand and lightly kissing it.
"Do not change the subject Koga! I hate it when people change the subject, now answer my question or I'll make sure you don't have a chance to reproduce ever again! Got it!" she yelled at him after taking her hand away and wiping what germs he placed on her hand. Koga stepped back at her anger and stood straight up.
"OK! We call him ice prince cause he's so cold to everyone that we call him that from time to time. He just ignores us most of the time. OK you got your answer! Just don't hurt me!" Koga said franticly. Sarah smiled at her doing, Sesshomaru just smirked at her threatening words. Naraku was laughing his head off at this, he never has seen someone, especially a girl, threaten his friend like that. Koga, still covering his family treasures, looked at her with fear.
"OK Koga I won't hurt you. But just so you know, if you call him ice prince when I'm around him, you'll be paying with your life. Got it?"
Both Koga and Naraku nodded their head yes, too bad Naraku never got to say anything. But he still didn't want to get on Sarah's bad side should her threat be as real as she sounded.
"Good, now if you'll excuse me, I have to get to my class. Sessho-sama, I will meet you soon to study at your house OK?" Asked Sarah.
"Yes Sarah-San. I'll meet you soon." Said Sesshomaru calmly. He watched as she left with a smile on her face and went to his classroom. It was only an hour after they parted when Sesshomaru started missing her presence, shaking his head he went back to his school work as well as thinking about her and how she was like him in almost an odd way, but he liked her for it. Two hours later the bell rang for the school day to end for the day.
Sarah was about to reach the soccer field when she saw Sesshomaru at the spot they said they would meet at. The way he was standing in the sun was magnificent and the way the wind was blowing was superb. He looked like a god sent down from the heavens. When she got to him she got a sweet smile from him, she smiled back to him. They were walking off the school grounds but as they were walking, someone was watching them.
"I am glad you came, I thought that you wouldn't come." He said.
"You're kidding right? I wouldn't want to miss beautiful paintings even if the world was ending." She said joking, they both laughed as they headed south.
"By the way we live next to a shrine. So if you'd like to go over to the shrine to pray, I'll take you. I know the owners really well." Said Sesshomaru.
"That would be nice." Said Sarah. On the way to his house, she found out a lot of stuff about Sesshomaru. Like his family was the richest family sense 500 years ago, and that he was to be the next to take the family fortune. Sesshomaru found out a lot of stuff about Sarah too, that she had different backgrounds in her family. Both of her parents were adopted, and separated. But the most interesting information he got was she loved to help others, she wasn't selfish at all. She was also in choir, she loved to sing, she loved animals but puppies were her favorite. She thought that they were so innocent when they were so young. They walked past some stores, one in particular caught Sarah's eyes. She walked to the window and watched the puppies play, she was smiling watching them. Sesshomaru look at her and saw the puppy, he thought it was cute.
" I see that you like that puppy, you can't stop thinking about them huh?" He said.
"Nope! I just can't help it, there so helpless when there puppies. They need help to understand things that happen, it's up to us to help them." Said Sarah. Sesshomaru could hear the passion in her voice. He was really concerned about her. Someone like her could get kidnapped or worse. He couldn't take it, losing his first friend in a long time would kill him.
"Sarah-San, We really have to get going. Father is expecting us." He added. She nodded and got up and he saw that she showed some sadness.
"Are you alright Sarah-san?" He asked her softly, she only nodded.
"It just reminds me of a special someone I lost a few years ago." She said.
"Oh. Who was it?" Asked Sesshomaru.
" My dog. She was 8 years old but I still thought of her as a puppy. She was small just like a puppy, but she was always getting beat up by my cousin's dog. So I protected her, but I-I can't do that now." Said Sarah. She had tears falling from her face, she knew she couldn't help crying so she tried wiping her tears away. All of a sudden she felt a hand on her chin, the hand pulled her chin up and saw the most beautiful face that was full of worry.
"S-Sessho-sama, I'm uh..." At that moment he put his finger on her lips.
" Don't worry about it." At that instant, he hugged her. She was really surprised at what he was doing.
" W-What is he doing?" She thought. She was blushing, then he said something that only she could hear.
"Sarah-San, please don't cry, it was my fault. I didn't mean to make you cry. Please forgive me." Said Sesshomaru. They stayed hugging for a while.
" I think he's really sorry for getting me crying." She thought again.
"Sessho-sama I forgive you." She said only he could hear it. He pulled back and saw that she had stopped crying and was smiling a bit.
"Really?" He asked wiping the last tear away. He saw her blush a bit and nod again.
"Sarah-san I really am sorry for making you cry, I am not used to talking about sad things with girls." He said, she giggled at him and he smiled again at her laughter.
"We should get going your fathers, I don't know if he thinks we are late." She added, he nodded and they started off again.
"Who else is in your family that I need to know before we get to your house?" Asked Sarah.
"The other family members are Rin, as you know Inuyasha, his mother and my stepmother. That's about it." He said.
"Oh. OK. Let's go. Or your dad will be vary anger with us being late." She said again.
"Your right. Let's go." Said Sesshomaru. They Started To Walk again, they walked for awhile until Sesshomaru stopped suddenly, Sarah bumped into sesshomaru and fell on her butt.
"Ow! that hurt!" Thought Sarah. She got up to see why he stopped so suddenly. Then she saw it was Koga with some of his "friends". He was, what looked like to her, angry. But really, he was fuming.
"No one makes fun of me! maybe I can get Sarah to be my woman. Whether she likes it or not." Thought Koga.
"Sarah-San, get behind me. And quickly, those guys mean business." Sesshomaru said. she nodded and quickly got behind him getting scared.
"Now why are you telling her what to do? 'sessho-sama'." Koga mocked at her.
"Because all you'll do is boss her and try to make her your." Said Sesshy. Sarah, who looked a bit scared but getting angry at the same time, stayed behind sesshy.
"That's not true but, if you don't mind, me and Sarah need to talk about this morning. Boys, go get her!" Koga ordered.
"Yes sir!" They all said. Suddenly all the guys started to run towards the two, there was a ringing of shots sounded and two of the men in the group of boys going to them fell clutching their chest.
"What the hell!" Yelled Koga. He saw what happened, Sarah had run around Sesshomaru and pulled out something black. But at the last moment two of his friend's were shot, all he saw left was Sarah, holding a gun, Sesshomaru looked at her with shock on his face.
"Sarah-San? how, but?" He started shuddering out.
"Sessho-sama, I'll tell you later. After I take care of Koga." Sarah then looked at Koga. She was pissed off and She couldn't stand how Koga ordered to get her.
"Koga! How dare you send your friends to "get me"! How dare you I bet that you have no respect for women at all! Do you think that I would want or even to be in the same area to be near you! No to be even be in ten feet of you! If you and your friends don't want to die, I suggest that you leave. And don't even think about talking to me or Sessho-sama!" Yelled Sarah.
"Yes Sarah! I'm Sorry! Don't kill us!" he yelled out.
"Then go! Before I change my mind!" she yelled back. They all ran away just as quickly as they came. As soon as they were gone Sarah put away her gun and walked away, Sesshomaru quickly caught up to her to try and get her to talk to him.
"Sarah-San?" He said to her. He didn't get an answer from her as he had hoped for.
"Sarah-San?" He asked again, and as again he didn't get her answer.
"Sarah-San, I know that you are listening. I just want to know how you got a gun, and why you shot those guys." ask Sesshomaru. He heard her sigh and stopped with her when she stopped.
"I got the gun from my family cause I got into a fight once at knife point, but I got out safe. They thought that I would be in another fight so that's why I have a gun. So I could protect myself and my friends." Said Sarah.
Sesshomaru just looked at her with a look that no one could understand, but he knew what face he meant. They walked in silence for awhile, Sesshomaru kept glancing at her once in a while.
"I wonder if she got hurt with the knife." Sesshomaru thought. Sesshomaru and Sarah had stopped finally in front of a big gate.
"Hey Sarah-san?" he said again.
"Yes Sessho-sama?" She replied finally.
"We're here now. Just hold onto for a moment I got to have the guard open it up." He said. she nodded and looked at him a bit confused but accepted it. He went to one side of the gate and pressed a button, he said something but so quiet that Sarah couldn't hear anything. Soon she heard a buzzing sound and before she knew it, the gate was opening, Sesshomaru was beside her, but she didn't know it.
"Come on. My dad is waiting for us." He said to her.
"Ok. But what did you say at the intercom?" she asked him
"Just a password and saying you're here with me." He replied. She nodded and followed him in when he walked thru the gates and stayed close to him afraid if something would stop her from following her or getting lost.
Sarah looked around to find that a beautiful garden was around them. The garden had roses, tulips, daises, and other flowers. But what caught Sarah's attention were the rose bushes, it was different from the rest. On the bush were two kinds of roses, red and white roses. Before she could ask why they were like that, they left the garden and stopped in front of a large door, two dragons where on the front of the door. Suddenly the doors opened and a man that looked just like Sesshomaru but looked a little older.
"Sesshomaru I thought you were late getting here, usually you are home on time." He said.
"I ran into some trouble on the way home father, I would like to introduce my guest, Sarah Kineshi." Sesshomaru said. Sarah bowed to the older man and he bowed back.
I'm so glad that your hear Sarah-san. My son said that you were coming. I am Mr. Takahashi." He said.
"Yes, Sessho-sama invited me over to study. " She replied.
"Well aren't you polite. You know Sesshomaru, she could be you girlfriend someday." Sesshomaru's father said.
"Father!" Sesshomaru yelled. Sarah only blushed at the comment. Suddenly there was a squeal behind his father and a small girl came running out and jumped onto Sesshomaru making step back from the impact of her attack.
"ONI-CHAN! YOUR HOME!" said the little girl. Sarah giggled at her action.
"Rin, how many times have I told you not to jump on people like that!"
"I'm sorry daddy. Oni-Chan, who is the lady" asked Rin. She was pointing towards Sarah. Sarah knelt down to eye level with Rin.
"Hi Rin. I'm Sarah. Your oni-Chan's friend." Sarah told Rin.
"Really?" Asked Rin all cute.
"Yup." said Sarah with a smile on her face.
"Good. Because I didn't like that other lady that oni-Chan was friends. She was mean to me. Sarah would you like to go pick flowers with me?" Rin asked her. Sarah giggled and looked at both Sesshomaru and his father.
"Yes Rin I would love to come and pick flowers with you, as long as it's alright with your father and your 'oni-Chan'." Sarah giggled.
"Rin you may go, I have to talk Sesshomaru anyways." Their father said.
"Yea!" squealed Rin. Sarah giggled as Rin pulled at her hand leading her to the garden wherever it was.
"She would be a great mother someday don't you think so Sesshomaru?" Sesshomaru's father asked.
"Yes, she will. I hope who ever she meets stays with her forever." Sesshomaru said while watching her leave with a very hyper Rin pulling her.
