Chapter 11- Something's Wrong
Souta turned his attention to Sesshomaru and me, a small smirk grace his lips I looked at him confusedly and he laughed a little.
"Is there something you want to tell us sis?" he questioned as I looked down at my hand. I noticed that I held Sesshomaru's hand in mine so I let go but he didn't. I attempted to get my hand out of his but he still wouldn't let go.
What the fuck? I thought looking up at him. I turned to Spike and he only smiled at me as I glared.
"We will be back, I need to talk to this girl," Sesshomaru said searching for the right words to say.
"Be my guest, but if you hurt her, your head belongs to me, do you have any threes?" he questioned Souta and he shook his head.
"Go fish," he said proudly as Sesshomaru pulled me into the other room. We stopped at a picture of that little girl.
"You wanted to talk to me about something?" I questioned looking at him. He just ignored me and looked at the picture hanging on the wall as I felt my anger rise. He was ignoring me, that bastard!
I faced the picture then I leaned against the wall next to it and closed my eyes crossing my arms across my chest.
"What is with you and Spike-sama having a picture of this girl? What is her name?" I questioned opening my eyes to look at him.
"Iris," he stated simply. Iris? That's my middle name, cool, "she was Spike-sama's little sister, when she was around six she vanished along with her father and mother."
Why is he telling me this? Does he think of me trustworthy? Wait, did he say Spikes little sister? Did Spike have more than one little sister or was this picture of me? I questioned in my head as I turned my attention back to the picture.
"Why tell me this? I do not know you," I stated confused.
"You were looking at a similar image at my castle. You saved Rin so I told you who the girl in the picture was, not that this makes up for that," he said coldly.
"How did you know this little girl?" I questioned as he turned his eyes upon me.
"She was my first and only friend, that is all you need to know, human," he spat. I didn't understand Sesshomaru, one minute he was being nice to me then the next he was biting my head off, talk about being bipolar.
"I see, is there anything else that you would like to tell this 'worthless' human?" I question spit the question out.
"No," was his reply as I started to walk away when the door to the dinning room opened and Souta walked out. He walked up to me and ruffled my hair causing the bandanna to come off. He held it in his hand and looked at me.
"Just as I thought, you hate wearing these things, you only wear them to hide those ears," he stated as I just my hands over my dog ears.
"Little brothers are a pain in the ass I swear, you're a fuckin hemroid sometimes," I stated as he just laughed at me, "you're talking too loud, you're hurting my ear dimwit."
Just then Spike walked out with Shippo and he looked to me and noticed what I was trying to hide. He just left and I felt my anger rise.
"Bloody hell, what is it? Make fun of your sister day? God, I'm going to take a bath," I growled stomping out of the room to hear Spike start to crack up laughing.
"I guess Kagome didn't get the memo," Souta stated with a giggle.
"What was she talking about?" Sesshomaru questioned turning around to face them. They just shook their head and all four of them walked into the dinning room to return to their game as Sesshomaru watched.
I slid into the hot water hoping that this time my thought wouldn't haunt me but instead of thoughts about my 18th birthday, they were thoughts of Sesshomaru.
Why am I thinking about him so much? I went under water then came back up. I grabbed my shampoo and washed my hair quickly as I washed my body. Did he really tell me those things because I saved Rin or was there some hidden emotion involved? Come on Kagome, think, you think you know him from somewhere and now those images prove it. I am Iris, I think. But why don't I remember anything? "Why can't I?!" I half yelled growling in anger. I sighed jumping out of the bath drying off. I changed into some black pants I had laid out and a black sweatshirt with blood red sleeves that had holes in them and flared out a lot at the end. I quickly put on my combat boots as I threw my hair into a bun. I walked to the dinning room but before I entered I quickly chanted a spell to make my ears and arm markings to away. My energy was finally returning to me and I was glad because I wasn't ready to turn into my true form yet, not without the rest of my soul at least. I opened the door and front of me and took a seat next to Sesshomaru.
"Have time to think? I notice you are not changing anymore," Souta said and I nodded as I felt a sharp pain in my chest. This couldn't be good. The last time I had gotten a pain this bad was when my father died, meaning someone dear to me had to have died. An images flashed before my eyes and they widened, " Kagome what's wrong?"
"Grandpa," I whispered jumping up. I didn't even bother to say bye as I ran as fast as I could to the bone eaters well. Sesshomaru had been following me the whole time unable to keep up with me. Once I reached the well I quickly jumped in as something grabbed me from around the waist as we vanished into the light to appear on the other side.
"I smell blood," Sesshomaru stated jumping out of the well with me in his arms. I got out of his hold and ran towards the house to find Grandpa on the ground with a bullet wound through the heart. I knew he was dead, no need in denying it, he had died instantly from the impact. I ran up to his form and laid his head on my lap. I noticed something in his hand so I took it out holding it in my hands.
"The Shikon shards," I said looking at them. I could tell they were the ones that Naraku had had. I held them in my hand as a tear escaped my eye.
"Weak humans," Sesshomaru spat and I glared at him.
"Don't you dare say that! You don't even know us and you judge us just because Inu Yasha's mother was human. You didn't know him, and for your information, he chose to be human, just as my mother and as my father, as will I!" I yelled at him as tears streamed down my face.
"You say you have a choice in the matter? You will surely explain this, later," he stated putting an arm around my waist pulling me to his body. I don't know of any other way to comfort her he thought embracing me. I threw my arms around his neck and cried for the first time since my father died.
Sess's pov
I had to admit this girl had guts if she could stand up to me in such a way. I respected her bravery as I picked her up bridal style and walked into her house to her room. I sat on her bed with my bad against the wall holding her in my arms. Why am I being so nice to her? She's just a worthless human, but she had dog ears and smelt like a full fledged demon. This isn't making sense to me anymore. I thought looking down at Kagome in my arms. She was sobbing still but I knew she was asleep as I heard someone run into the house and up the stairs. A minute later her door burst open to revel Souta and Spike standing there.
"Kagome," Souta yelled running up to the sleeping girl in my arms.
"She's sleeping, let her rest, she has been through a lot," I stated placing her onto the bed standing up. Almost instantly I wished I was holding her in my arms again, she was so warm to hold against my body and now I was starting to get cold. Souta nodded at me leaving the room to call some people about what had happened. Spike stayed in the room with Kagome as I looked out the window as if nothing had happened fighting a battle within my mind with the stupid voices I thought I had gotten rid of along time ago.
"Sesshomaru, she reminds you of someone, does she not?" Spike questioned taking hold of her hand.
"This Sesshomaru can not lie, she does remind me of someone I once knew," he stated coldly never taking his gaze off the window. Spike just nodded his head, he felt bad for hiding this from his friend but he was not able to get up the courage to tell his childhood friend that Kagome was indeed his little sister from eleven years ago, the one that had stolen his heart.
Kag's dream
I laughed as I played tag with the mysterious silver haired demon. I had yet to ask his name but he was a good playmate. Out of nowhere I was tackled and on the ground being tickled to death as I continued to laugh.
"Stop it! I give!" I laughed trying to push him off of me but it was no use. I opened my eyes and met his golden eyes in a gaze as he smirked down at me. He got off of me and helped me up pulling me to his chest. Just then he held something out in his hand and I looked at it, "what is it?"
"It's a ring, I want you to have it," he said placing it on my left middle finger, "only I will be able to remove it Iris, it is a promise that we will meet again since I know you must leave, happy sixth birthday."
He kissed my cheek and I felt myself blush as I threw my arms around his waist.
"You the best friend I have ever had. I will never forget you, Sessho-kun," I said.
End dream
My eyes snapped open as I looked around my room and I sat up placing a hand on my forehead.
"What a strange dream," I stated standing up to see Sesshomaru by my window and Spike by my bed.
"Well look who finally decided to get up, you have some things to take care of, the hospital I think said that they needed you to sign some papers since your mother is nowhere to be found," Spike explained and I nodded standing up. He walked out of the room but Sesshomaru still stood by the window looking outside at the night sky.
"The stars are pretty, aren't they?" I questioned and he turned to face me.
"I don't see what's so great about them," he stated coldly about to walk away but I grabbed his wrist and he growled.
"I just want to thank you for what you did out there," I said as he nodded, "I'm sorry to ask this but about Iris, did you happen to give her a ring of some kind?"
"That is none of your concern," he growled walking out the door slamming it behind him.
"Oh but it does," I whispered and I knew he could hear me through the door. Everything seemed to be coming together with breaks and it seemed in bits and pieces. I felt like just running away but that never solved anything, this time I was going to face my fears.
