Kagome was mentally going over her list of things she's experienced since she turned 15.

Time Travel? Been there, done that.

Learn she was a priestess? Not really surprising, with her family's history and that she grew up on a shrine.

Fight all manners of bad guys? Not really something a 15 year old girl from the 21st century should have to do, but she kicked butt and conquered all there was.

Get kidnapped? She had lost count how many times, but none were like her current kidnapping nor her current kidnapper.

Not only that, the current situation was one of the worst one she's ever been in.

"Okay, I'll talk! I'll tell you whatever it is you want to know! Just get me out of this heat~!" she cried into the back of her kidnapper.

She was sure she sweated out juice she drank back in the third grade. It made her wonder how her kidnapper could easily walk around in black leather that was trimmed in fur. She herself most likely looked like a sad, pathetic little red lobster.

"Ugh, I don't feel so good." her kidnapper hopped down from a log he had stepped over, causing her to drop down painfully on his shoulder. "I wouldn't do that if I were you... unless you -want- me to be sick."

His steps became smoother after that. Not that she could blame him... Wait a minute. Yes she could! She had been minding her own damn business and then he swopped in, literally, and plucked her from her friends and dragged her off to this never ending heat of hell.

She had fought and screamed the first hour or so, but when she realized that wasn't helping her, she decided to take stock of her situation and think her way out of it.

"Ya know... I think it's about time you told me what it was you wanted. As odd as it sounds, my other kidnappers either told me what they planned or demanded what they wanted. You haven't said shit." she felt him turn his head when she mentioned her other kidnappers.

"That's right! I said 'other kidnapper'! So just to warn ya, I'm more likely to be more trouble than I'm worth!" maybe she could scare him into letting her go?

Thinking it would be worth a shot, she retold him all the accounts of her kidnappings. From the Thunder Brothers, Kouga, Naraku... pretty much everyone she had ever met in the past. Of course a few things were omitted, for obvious reasons. She didn't want to sound crazy.

"..."

"So you're the strong silent type. Boring." propping her elbows against his back, her tied hands were used to prop her chin, eyes squinting when she spotted black sleek bodies trailing behind them. "Are those panthers? Oh Kami... I'm going to be sacrificed against aren't I?!"

Her kidnapper actually stumbled at her quiet cry. He stopped completely and listened to her semi hysterical ramblings.

"You're gonna sacrifice me to raise some ancient tribe leader, it's going to work, until said leader goes on a freakin rampage and kills and -eats- everyone! Including his descendants!"

Black Panther truly was beginning to wonder if she would end up being more trouble than she was worth. But she was an actual Priestess, something his people, or any people that worshiped any ancient gods, had not seen in centuries.

He knew what she was attempting to do, when she began to retell her previous kidnapping, but it wasn't going to work. It took a lot of time and resources to find who she was, locate her and then bring her here. He wasn't about to let go so easily after that.

She would aid his people, hopefully become a priestess for their Panther gods and after that, who knew.

By now she was mumbling under her breath, to a point even he, couldn't catch what she was saying. But one thing was for certain, things were bound to get exciting with the priestess now involved.


AN: Don't really know much about the Black Panther, but to me personally, he does come off as a sort of 'strong silent type' of character. Speaking only when something important is needed to be said. A request from Hikair for the Black Panther. Not sure if he's in character or not, but I actually had fun writing this one. I just hope you all enjoy reading it! Other than that; read, enjoy, and review!
