Kagome was thinking on her way home,
~I have to keep my emotions at bay.~ Kagome thought to herself. Once they made it home she gave her mother the keys, then ran up to her room and found her old cloak with a hood her mother had made for one Halloween, she thought of other things she might possibly need. Finally she was ready to go, she went into her brother's room and started playing video games till 10:30 at night.
"Sorry, gotta go buddy," Kagome messing his hair up,
"Be careful sis," Sota warning her.
"I will be," Kagome grabbing her stuff and going out her bedroom window and jumping from the balcony. She grabbed her bicycle and rode into the darkness with her black cape as cover. As she approached the circus, she glanced at her watch, 11 PM she nodded once, parking her bike away from the circus and quickly and quietly made her way to the back of the tent. She glanced in the opening of the tent, she had her tools ready in case she needed them, there was a guard walking around and inspecting things, but he left, Kagome quietly as possible got Sesshomaru's attention, he glanced in the direction of the guard, he motioned for her to come to him. Kagome silently ran to his cage, she placed her hand on the lock and broke it open, Kagome pointed to the neck collar, he bent down and she broke it off using her powers, Sesshomaru grabbed her hand, they were on their way out when a couple of guards were standing between them and their exit, Kagome let go of Sesshomaru's clawed hand, she forced all her power out, she felt the warmth flowing into her veins and she placed both hands up with a light purple color of power coming out of her palms, knocking both guards out. There was suddenly a sharp, excruciating pain in her right side, she placed her hand on her side and pulled her hand away. Blood her blood, Sesshomaru had shook off the extremely loud, ear piercing bang and grabbed Kagome in his arm before she had a chance to fall and flew out of the tent in his power light ball before any bullets could penetrate his body. He flew to the high mountains so no one could find them, then he landed. Sesshomaru looked at the young miko in his arms, her blood was pouring out of her wound and onto his attire.
"You have to get the bullet out and stop the bleeding," Kagome groaned, Sesshomaru nodded once, he had landed by a hot spring that was still around, he knew it wasn't proper but he figured she would be more comfortable if she was relaxing in the hot spring while he dug the bullet out but first he had to get the metal out of her body. So he laid her down on the ground, he got her shirt off and her bra,
"What are you doing?" Kagome whispered,
"Relax, this Sesshomaru has to clean your wound after he removes the metal in your side, he will not harm you," Sesshomaru looking at the wound, she nodded,
"Relax, this will hurt," Sesshomaru wiping away the blood from the hole, he dug around in the hole till he found the metal and pulled it out of her side, she lightly moaned, he looked at her,
"It is done, miko, you will heal yourself now with your power," Sesshomaru instructed, she had her eyes closed but her heart was still beating,
~She has fainted, you should heal her, it is your fault that she is bleeding to death.~ his beast explained. Sesshomaru glanced down at her,
~She did exhaust all her powers, you doesn't have enough power to heal herself.~ Sesshomaru thought, he leaned down and licked her wound and it closed, he cleaned her wound with his tongue, he lavished her blood, she tasted so sweet, the sweetness of the innocent. Slowly he pulled away and got the rest of her clothes off and got his attire stripped from his person and got her up in his arm and walked into the spring, she groaned as her body hit the hot water,
"You're okay, this Sesshomaru has healed your wound, soon her powers will start to heal the damage done inside," Sesshomaru explained coolly.
"Thank you, Lord…" Kagome passing back out, he secretly kept the smashed up metal they called a bullet, to remind him what the Shikon No Tama maiden had done for him. He cleaned her off the best he could and got her out, she would freeze high in these mountains if he didn't find her home, he placed her in his outside layer of his attire and wrapped her up. He sniffed her scent on her clothes, so he could track her scent to her home, he flew off, back the way they had came and picked up her scent and got her home. Once he found her home he looked for any open windows and found one, he flew up to the balcony and got her through the window,
~This is her room.~ Sesshomaru smelling her lavender and rose scent all around her room. Gently he sat her in a chair and pulled back her blankets on her bed, then picked her up and laid her under the blankets, he pulled them down a little so he could see the wound, it was still red and looked irritated a bit but it was closed. He pulled the blankets over her,
~It shall be healed over night, she shall be fine.~ Sesshomaru explained to himself.
~So what do we do now, where do we hide?~ his beast asked,
~We shall rest here till morning, this Sesshomaru has a debt to pay the miko, so he will stay to make sure she is fine.~ Sesshomaru explained to his beast.
~Her mother should truly hate us, her father will surely try to dispose of us.~ his beast explained.
~We shall not harm her family, she has saved this Sesshomaru.~ Sesshomaru explained. Kagome started to toss and turn,
"Kagome," Sesshomaru moving to her side, he sat on the edge of the bed, slowly she opened her eyes,
"Lord Sesshomaru, where are we?" Kagome asked in a whisper,
"You are home," Sesshomaru moving his hand to her forehead, she was sweating and her forehead was hot,
"You are running a fever," Sesshomaru softly.
"The bathroom is one room to the left down the hall, you have to find the Tylenol bottle and get two out, it will reduce my fever," Kagome explained, he saw an empty glass on her desk, he nodded and took the glass and walked out into the hall and proceeded to find the bathroom. Once he found the bathroom he looked through the medicine cabinet and found the pills and filled the glass with water, he heard someone walking down the hall and knew it wasn't Kagome, he stood still, the door opened and he looked down his nose at the little boy. The little boy rubbed his eyes,
"Um, hi, Lord Sesshomaru?" the little boy asked,
"Yes, I brought your sister home, I require assistance," Sesshomaru showing him the bottle,
"You have to line the arrows up and then pop the lid up," the little boy standing in the doorway, Sesshomaru did as he said and the lid popped up,
"How many does it take to lower a fever?" Sesshomaru asked,
"Two for adults," the little boy explained,
"Thank you, what does this Sesshomaru address you by?" Sesshomaru asked,
"My name is Sota, um, I need to use the bathroom," Sota pointing to the toilet. Sesshomaru nodded and walked out,
"Your welcome Lord Sesshomaru," Sota bowing, Sesshomaru nodded and walked back to Kagome. He walked into the room,
"Who are you?" an older woman asked.
