My mistake
Kagome pulls away as soon as she saw InuYasha standing there. Seimei shields her slightly but Kagome knows that won't work. InuYasha walks up to Seimei and shoves him out of the way then grabs Kagome's shoulders.
"Kagome." He mumbles lightly shaking her shoulders.
Kagome didn't dare look into InuYasha's eyes but she knew he wanted her to. So she reluctantly turned to look at him. The look in his eyes almost made Kagome shudder, because there was no anger in his eyes.
"InuYasha? Aren't you mad?" Kagome dares to ask him under her breath.
"No, I just don't understand why you would. I don't want to lose you to him that's all." InuYasha mumbles pulling Kagome into his embrace.
Kagome returns his hug, and looks over his shoulder at the awe struck Seimei. Just as she is about to look away from him InuYasha pushes her back to an arm's length away. He then leans forward and kisses her.
Kagome's eyes fly open with surprise and her thoughts disappear until she feels herself shove away from him. She glares at the two half-demon men and yells at them to stay away from her.
"What's going on in here?" Miroku asks appearing in the doorway.
Kagome sees her chance and dashes out of the open door and down the hall to the main room. She notices that the hall continues down the other side of the room. Kagome races down it and flings herself into the last room. Someone grabs her and covers her mouth.
"Quiet! I'll hide you. Miroku is coming to find you." Says the voice of her capture as they shove her into a closet and return to the middle of the room.
Kagome can hear doors being opened and closed. She can also hear Miroku's voice asking if the inhabitant has seen a young woman dressed strangely. Kagome holds her breath as Miroku opens the door to the room she's in.
"Sora have you seen a young woman dressed in strange clothing?" He asks Kagome's capture.
"No, fair Miroku I have not seen anyone. Do you need my services tonight, sir? For I am ready to perform the task you brought me here for." Says the person in the middle of the room.
"Not tonight, Sora. I must find Kagome." Miroku says gasping for air.
"Is she replacing me? My services are still needed, right?" Sora asks sadly.
"No she is only visiting and she is an old friend. Thank you for your help though." Miroku says before shutting the door and slowly walking back down the hall.
Once his footsteps have faded, Sora retrieves Kagome out of the closet and tells her to still remain quiet. That's when Kagome finally gets her first look at her capture. She is almost surprised to see that it is a woman. Sora is dressed like a
demon slayer and her shields are the same color that Sango's were. Kagome looks at her face and sees that she has green eyes and blonde hair.
"And they think I look strange." Kagome mumbles to herself.
"You do but then again I'm not one to talk." Sora says walking over to the moonlit window.
"I can hear you no matter what unless you think something." Sora explains looking out the window.
"So you must be a demon." Kagome inquires walking over to stand by the woman.
"That I am, and yes I'm a demon who slays other demons. That is how Miroku came upon me. He was alone when he was attacked but I saved him and he brought me here. Sango knows nothing of my existence, and I know nothing of the outside world anymore." Sora explains her green eyes turning on Kagome.
"Don't worry I'm also being held against my will, or so it seems. I want to learn more of my demon powers but the guys I'm with want me to remain ignorant about them. I feel so restrained and I'm so happy that Sesshomaru wants to train me." Kagome says happily staring out at the moon.
"I have heard of Sesshomaru. I wanted him to teach me but he refused. And I know of your companions InuYasha, and Seimei. Seimei knows I'm here and he wants me to be with him. Well he used to until he heard you were coming. He really loves you for some reason." Sora says crossing her arms as she turns her head to stare at the moon.
"You can have him. I'm not sure I want to be in love anymore. I always wind up with my heart being pulled in two directions." Kagome hisses as tears form in her eyes.
"Do not give up on love, Kagome. I dream of finding it but so far no luck. You are lucky to have love in your life." Sora says sadly her eyes still focused on the moon.
Kagome blinks and nods her agreement before once again looking to the moon. That's when she gets an idea of how to help Sora out.
"Sora, I have an idea. Why don't you and I get you out of here to find your love? We'll go to my room and dress you a little differently so that you can attract Seimei's attention. Come on!" Kagome says hopping through the window.
Sora follows her without responding. Kagome leads Sora to her room and enters it through the window. She is glad to see her room empty. Sora enters and looks around before walking over to Kagome.
"Here, put on this wig and I'll work on getting you a different outfit." Kagome says handing Sora the hair covered piece.
"Why do you have someone's scalp? Are you barbaric?" Sora asks almost dropping the hair piece.
"No. I brought it over from my world to remind me of home. I'll help you." Kagome explains pulling Sora's hair into a ponytail.
Kagome places the hair piece on Sora's head and pulls out an outfit worn by most of the women during this era. Sora puts it on then lets Kagome wash off the paint from her eyelids. Once Kagome is finished Sora looks more like a villager than a demon slayer.
"Perfect. Now we'll sleep outside and in the morning we will knock on the door and pretend to have met in the woods and you were alone and so was I and we became quick friends. Miroku will answer but he won't recognize you and neither will Seimei. Just pretend you don't know them either. Now come on." Kagome explains before exiting through the window again.
Sora follows after her a little confused but she decides to go with it anyways. The two demon women find a place to rest in the woods and fall asleep there until morning comes.
Kagome wakes up first then wakes Sora. She tells Sora that she needs a different name if this idea is to work. They come up with the name Yumiki for Sora to use until further notice.
"Alright then Yumiki, we should head back to the house and start our plan for you to get back Seimei." Kagome announces to Sora.
"Alright Kagome but I'm still not sure this will work entirely." Sora says worriedly as they walk slowly back to the house.
"Don't worry so much, Sora it will work." Kagome says confidently as they approach the front door.
Kagome knocks on the door and hears Miroku's footsteps. He asks who it is and Kagome says it's her and a friend. He opens the door and stares at the pair before inviting them in. Sora's eyes search for Seimei but she sees InuYasha first and all her thoughts being with Seimei vanish. Sora has a new man she wants to be with and his name is InuYasha.
Author's Note:
Sorry it took so long. School started and I've had to work. This chapter might be a little dull. I haven't written in so long it was hard to spice it up. I'll do better next chapter. Oh yeah Sora means sky and Yumiki is a name I made up. I don't know if it has a meaning.
