Chapter 6: Lost in a place without a huge map
"Convenient." He said angrily as he looked at InuYasha and Kikyo. "You may leave now." He said as he pointed to the well and glared at them. Kikyo took a step forward and glared right back at him while InuYasha looked about ready to punch everybody in the face.
"You will not tell me where I might go." Kikyo spat as she marched off into the forest. I was just glad to see her go. She really wasn't my most liked person on the planet and neither was Inuyasha, so both of them together was hell. You didn't even know what to expect. Inuyasha shot me a pleading yet somehow angry gaze before running after her.
Rin Sat down beside me and gawked at my ankle. "Do you think your going to die?" She asked me and I shot her an odd look before shaking my head with a smile plastered on my face. It looked horrible, but it didn't hurt if I didn't put pressure on it. "Wow their, Kagome. That's a bad wound. You should probably go see Kaede." Koga said as he looked at it closely. "Yeah. It's broken and bloody. I'd go see Kaede. Anyways I should probably be on my way. See ya' around, Kagome." He said before running off. I took note that he was extremely fast before looking at Sesshomaru.
"Who's Kaede?" he asked as he bent down beside my ankle. Taking a good look at it. "She lives in the village. She's this old lady chick but everybody seems to want you to go to her. She's seems wise." I told him as I gasped when he touched it. With one soft poke, the pain shot up my leg and filled my entire body. "Is she a healer or a doctor or something?" He asked as he picked me up wedding style. "I don't know. I know where her house is though." I said while Rin ran further down the path. " I do too Lord Sesshomaru! Fallow me!" She screamed in a voice full of happiness as she ran down the path with Jaken fallowing her and yelling for her to slow down.
When they got there, Kaede was outside pulling weeds in a small garden, and when she saw them she immediately straighten and nodded. "Lord Sesshomaru, Kagome, Rin, Jaken, how may I assist you today?" she asked as she walked into her hut thing. Sesshomaru carried me in and Jaken and Rin sat outside waiting for us to be finished. "She fell down the well and hurt her ankle." He told her as he set me down on the floor and sat down next to me. "This Sesshomaru needs your help to fix the wound properly." He added as he pointed to my ankle. She sat down and took it carefully in her hands. I winced when she grabbed it, but she then grabbed my leg and held it up where it didn't hurt which was a hell of a lot better.
"Ye broke your ankle. Ye'll need to rest for a few days before you can continue your travels." She said as she grabbed a bucket of water and a cloth and started to clean out my wound, causing me to wince every time she touched it.
Sesshomaru groaned and got up. "This Sesshomaru will set up camp by the well. See you shortly." He said as he walked out of the room. I sighed as I heard him yell for Jaken. I could hear Rin go on about flowers as they walked away. I noticed Kaede was starring at me. "What?" I asked as I tilted my head sideways. She smiled.
"You are quite affiliated with Lord Sesshomaru, are you not?" She asked me and I thought about it for a moment. I really wasn't, because I just met him today, but so much happened today, and the sun was setting and the day was almost over. Yet, I felt like I knew him my whole life. "Well I guess you could say that." I told her as I watched her put this powder that stung on my ankle. "Do ye know what happened a few months back? Lord Sesshomaru disappeared for such a long time. Was it because of ye?" I shook my head because either both of the answers where no, or I really didn't know. Simple really.
"Do ye just not know or do ye wish not to tell me?" She asked and I started to get annoyed. Either she was overly prying or she was a gossip. It had to be on or the other. "I just don't know, Kaede. Please just focus on healing my wounds." I said as I yawned. I was tired. I looked outside and the sun was dimming. It was almost night. How much time had passed?
I heard Sesshomaru's trademark annoyed sigh from behind and turn around to see him standing there in all his glory. I was starting to notice something though; 2 red lines on each cheek were starting to show up and a blue crescent moon on his forehead was as well. I'd bring that up later. "Are you any better?" I looked at my ankle and toed it was wrapped in some sort of white fabric. It did look better and it wasn't swelling. "Yeah. I think I can walk" I said and he wasted no time picking me up bridal style. "Not necessary. I think you might still need time to heal." He said as he held me close and walked out of the cabin and towards the well.
"Sessh, what do you think happened when we fell down the well?" I asked and he shook his head. He didn't know and I didn't know. Who did know? Honestly we'd have to get scientist here to check it out. Could anybody fall down the well? Should we seal it off? Or is it just us? Who knows? "hn" He said in place of a real reply. I sigh and let him carry me the rest of the way in silence.
The camp was a small tent constructed by taking a huge tree log and breaking it so it hung over the grass high enough to use as a roof. There was a fire burning intently and Rin was eating an apple happily beside Jaken. "Hello lord Sesshomaru. Master Jaken found me this apple! Would you like one Lady Kagome?" I shivered at the use of "Lady" infront of my name, but then noticed how she added a prefix to everybodys name. Was it just natural to her? Whatever it was I didn't want to change her good manners. "No Rin, I'm good. I'll have one tomorrow morning though." I told her as Sesshomaru set me in the shelter. He took of his sweater and draped it over me like a blanket. "We'll ask for new clothing from Kaede tomorrow." I looked at Sesshomaru funny and he sighed, "Jaken tried to jump down the well, and for some reason it isn't working any more."
