Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha...sighs...oh well. Maybe I can get stock? Shrugs
Inuyasha followed his brothers scent to a steep cliff. He looked around to find that Sesshoumaru's scent had traveled up. Snorting, he set the woman down. He took out a rope and tied her hands then her feet. He smiled thinking what would happen when she woke up. Inuyasha looked around to see if there was any way up to the cave mouth where his brothers scent stopped. The scent faded so Inuyasha knew that his brother could take care of himself so he would just sit tight and wait.
Kagome kept walking down the passage way. She had seen a couple of bones but no monsters or demons. Kagome felt a shiver run down her spine. She stopped in her tracks and turned around and forced her aura to search the cavern behind her. She gasped when she felt the dark aura following. How did he get in? She thought as she sprinted farther into the cave, hoping to find some place to hide.
Sesshoumaru felt a pure aura sweep over him. He smiled to himself as he kept walking. So the girl knows I'm here. Sesshoumaru mused.
What will you do when you find her? His beast asked.
I really have no idea. She intrigues me to some end.
We should let her grow up a little before we make a move. His beast replied. That way we can see what she will become when she finally matures.
What? He shouted at his beast. Sesshoumaru knew something was off for his beast not want to kill a ningen miko.
Do you not feel the eminence power that lays beneath? Or are you blind? His beast snorted, Inuyasha has probably chosen the other female because she is older, while you are able to take this one and mold her to suit your needs. Sesshoumaru smiled at the thought. This indeed intrigued him. A scream brought him back to the present. He narrowed his eyes and speed up. He felt an evil power the first moment he sat foot in the mouth of the cave. It took him no time to reach the open area where the girl was being held down by a bear demon. He narrowed his eyes when he see the girl start to glow a bright pink.
Kagome couldn't help but scream when see seen a giant bear. She had tried to focus her powers to put up a barrier but the bear had hit her before she had time. She hit the back of head against the side of the cave. She could feel her heart start racing as she thought of her cousin Kikyo and the other demon that may have her. Then she felt her blood boil with anger and then the anger grew into rage. She looked up at the beast that was now standing over her. Her eyes widen when she seen that it was about to kill her. Suddenly light spilled from Kagome's chest and filled the cavern. Kagome's eyes flashed pink then white as the energy came forth.
Sesshoumaru couldn't believe his eyes. He had never seen or felt such a bright aura, from anyone. He raised his arm to shield his eyes, which only widened when he seen what was happening. Kagome- who was once under the bear demon- was now standing in front of it with her hand spread wide in front of her. The energy that she was emitting made her clothes whip around her figure. Not long after the bright appeared it disappeared plunging the whole cavern into darkness. Sesshoumaru was grateful for the enhanced eyesight, which gave him the ability to spot where the child had fallen. He walked carefully over to the unconscious girl and knelt down.
Sesshoumaru was surprised on how warm she was. He bent over and sniffed trying to find out if she was sick. The girl under him smelled of falling rain and a sweet flower flagrance but there was a bitter smell underneath which meant she was sick. He went to pick her up to only realize that he had two hands. Sesshoumaru sat there confused, his father had taken his left arm as a trophy after Sesshoumaru had disputed the fact that Inuyasha's mother was going to be the Lady of the West. His gaze moved down to the young miko. The only thing he could figure out was when she let lose the power that was in her it made his regeneration powers speed up. He picked the young miko up and turned to leave the way they came only to hear her whisper.
"I'm K-kag-gome." Then she fell in to oblivion. Sesshoumaru frowned at the young girl who just introduced herself despite the fact she was completely worn out. Sesshoumaru actually smiled at the thought that this young girl was snuggling in to his kimono instead of pulling away like most ningen children would. He moved his gaze forward that way he could see where he was going and could tell when the opening was near.
