Chapter 10
3 Days Later
"Oh Lord Sesshomaru your so funny" Nakimo laughed loudly hanging from his arm
"yessss, defiantly the ssstrongessst demon around" Lady Garu hissed close to his ear
"Ugh I am so sick of this! I can't stand one more day let alone another week!"
"Oi, you there, servant, get over here" Mistress Hitori shouted out
"Coming mistress" I said in my most polite voice
I walked over towards the cat demon who was standing in the hall glaring at Sesshomaru, it was obviouse that she didn't want to be here I could only imange what Lady Rikana must have said to get her to come.
"Did you want something mistress" I asked bowing my head
"Yes my room is unacceptable, find me a new one"
"Of course mistress" I said forcing a smile
I continued my way down the hall to find her a new room.
"This is her 3rd room today" I sighed annoyed
"Servant!"
I looked up from the ground and saw Lady Shikah standing in front of me.
"Yes milady?" I smiled trying to remain calm
"You would do well to keep the other humans away from me or next time I might not be able to control myself" she said licking her lips walking away
A small shiver crept up my spine, it took all I had not to allow my barrier to show, I would hate to think what would happen if I let my barrier loose. I hadn't been able to figure out why exactly but that bat demon always gave me the creeps, every time she was around I had to focus all my strength on not allowing my barrier to show. Once she was out of sight I sigh with relief, I shook myself before continuing on trying to forget about that encounter. After looking in every room in the house I finally found one that I thought would be good enough for the cat demon, I took a note of where it was and headed back to let her know, on my way back I bump into Lady Wiktah.
"I'm so sorry milady" I said quickly bowing
"It was my fault" she said in a quiet voice
"Do you need any help?"
"Oh well I don't want to trouble you"
"It's no trouble really" I smiled
I had liked Lady Wickta from day one, she was very quiet and shy but she was nice, not like the others.
"Well I seemed to have lost my way" she said blushing
"Where are you trying to get to?"
And she had to be the only demon I have ever known to get lost.
"I can't seem to find my room" came her even more quiet response
"If you come with me I can show you"
"Oh no, I don't want to trouble you"
"It's no trouble really, in fact it's on my way"
It wasn't really but I didn't mind taking a detour back to Sesshomaru and the other girls.
"Here we are" I smiled opening the door for her
"Thankyou very much Takara"
"If you ever need anything my room is just down the hall there, see the silver doors" I explained point to the faint shimmer of my doors
"You are to kind"
I bided her farewell and then turned back around towards the room Mistress Hitori was, as I walked into the room Lady Garu and Nakimo both had there hands all over Sesshomaru and he just stood there allowing it. I wanted to say something but I knew it wasn't my place, I don't know why it bothered me so much but I couldn't help but hate seeing them two hang off him like that, but what bothered me even more was that Sesshomaru was letting them.
"I found you a room Mistress Hitori"
"And it's about time to; I can't stand being in this room a second longer"
Once I showed Mistress Hitori to her new room I headed towards min for some reast, since these demons have been staying here iv been getting tired a lot faster then I normally do. I got to my room and closed the door behind me with a sigh; I kicked of the brown cotton shoes and untied the equally brown apron tossing it to the side not caring where anything landed. Since the demons have been staying we have all be forced to wear 'proper' attire, to everyone else it wasn't that bad after all more then half of hem already did but to me I hated it, I hated wearing shoes and not being able to feel the cool marble beneath my feet or being able to run around not worrying about slipping from the lack of grip on the shoes. It wasn't so bad wearing the apron, I could put up with that but it was just the shoes I couldn't stand, I picked up on of the shoes and threw it out the window as fast and hard as I possibly could.
"You know it's a good thing that windows open…"
I spun around in panic until I saw it was Hana standing at my door.
"I didn't even hear the door" I muttered more to myself then anyone
"Maybe because you were throwing your shoe half way across Japan?" she teased
"I can't stand it Hana"
"Shoes aren't that bad" she said closing the door
"It's not just the shoes… its just"
I didn't know how to finish the sentence; I didn't even really know why I was so frustrated. I walked over to my bed and sat down on the cold floor leaning against the bed; I turned my head slightly and looked out of the window.
"I don't like it Hana, I don't like having them here, I don't like…"
"Seeing them with Sesshomaru"
I looked up at her shocked, as I went to deny what she said a single tear rolled down my cheeks, there was no denying it anymore.
"Why don't you just tell him" she said walking over to me
"Tell him what? There is nothing to tell" I sighed wiping away the tear
"Takara…"
"No Hana, it doesn't matter… one of them demons will become his bride and nothing I say is going to change that"
"So what are you going to do, continue throwing shoes out the window… you're going have a hard time finding that by the way" she said with a small smile
I knew what she was trying to do and I appreciated her for it, I smiled back at her and stood up.
"Guess I should get looking then"
Hana sat down on my bed and watched as I went over to my cupboard, I opened it and pulled out my usual white and blue dress, I just finished putting it on and was about to close the cupboard when Hana said something that made me stop dead in my tracks.
"It's back.."
She said it so quietly that I wasn't sure I heard her right.
"What was that?"
"Huh? Oh umm nothing"
She quickly looked away from the cupboard and started down at her feet.
"Who put what back?"
"Don't know what your talking about" she said without looking at me
"Hana" I said in my most forceful voice I could muster at the time
Hana started to bite her thumb and whimper in her spot.
"ok fine!" she shouted jumping to her feet "the other day when I was looking for Sesshomaru I went into his room and I saw your chest sitting there on his table I know I wasn't supposed to be looking around his room but it caught my attention and…"
"Wait a minute Hana"
She stoped pacing around and looked up at me
"Now back up a bit and slow down, what did you see in his room?"
"Your chest, it was sitting on his table"
I knelt down on the floor and pulled the chest towards me, sure enough the thin layer of dust was missing. I opened it up and saw that everything had been rearranged; I closed the chest once more and pushed it back into its place then stood up with my hands it tight balls.
"How dare he go through my stuff" I hissed through my teeth
"So you didn't let him?"
"OF COURSE NOT!"
"I didn't think you would have"
"You know what I'm going to give him a piece of my mind!" I said storming towards the door
"Takara wait, I know you're angry but honestly there isn't much you can do about it"
"I don't care if he is a demon lord"
"Just take a few minutes to get your thoughts together; you don't want to do something you will regret later"
I closed my eyes and thought about it for a minute, I knew Hana was right, if I went after Sesshomaru I would be in big trouble and it would just be me the others would suffer as well and I didn't want that.
"I'm going to get my shoe" I hissed keeping my eyes closed
I ran over to the open window and jumped out of it with my barrier around me not worrying about anything other then getting away from him and that house.
