A little note: As seen on Dokuga! This drabble/one-shot collection follows Kagome and her mission to 'seduce' Sesshomaru, in order to hand over his corpse to Hebiko, who in return will grant her wish.

Meeting
Kagome's eyes opened when the sun's rays hit her skin. Her entire body ached from sleeping on the hard ground, but she knew she had to endure it. Swallowing her urge to whine, Kagome sat up and stretched her arms over her head. Several birds chirped above her in the large tree she decided to use as shelter. It was a bright, sunny day, yet the forest which she was already used to, still seemed eerie. It was after all, one of those rare times she was actually alone.
Kagome stumbled through the forest until she found a stream where she quickly washed her face. Once she was done, she groaned in frustration. Hebiko wanted her to find Sesshomaru, but truthfully, how on earth was she going to find him? Hebiko never bothered to at least point her in the right direction. Kagome clenched her fists. She just wanted to get this over and done with and behind her.
"Look Lord Jaken, Rin found a stream!" a sweet voice suddenly echoed through the forest. Kagome quickly jumped up, but she already knew who it was. It had to be fate smiling at her. Kagome anxiously looked around, waiting for Sesshomaru's two companions to appear from the bushes. Finally Rin appeared, a huge smile om her face. Rin spotted Kagome and froze.
While the two stared at each other, Jaken appeared next to Rin and he noticed her surprised expression. Annoyed, he looked up and he too froze, but for an entirely different reason. Kagome stood still, waiting for Sesshomaru to join them, but he never appeared.
Jaken was first to speak, "Such beauty..."
Kagome's stomach dropped. Suddenly Hebiko's warning flashed through her mind. 'Do not converse with another man, for he will also be charmed by this spell.' Kagome scrunched up her nose. She had forgotten about Sesshomaru's companion. This was definently going to become a problem...
"Lord Jaken?" Rin asked, confused. Jaken dropped his staff and collapsed before Kagome. Rin watched him, panicked and worried. Jaken, however could not see anything else anymore. All he saw was Kagome, the core of his world.
"Please make me your servant!" Jaken pleaded as he bowed.
Rin's jaw dropped while Kagome shifted uncomfortably on her feet. A few minutes of awkward silence passed.
"What are you doing, Jaken?" a deep voice asked from the shadows. Kagome started to panic. Sesshomaru was here.
