Kagome stormed out of the room, her reiki swarming around her, swirling in a massive clump all around her, many of the weaker demons in the room, began to faint, the stronger ones, had a tough time breathing, and Sesshoumaru, well of course he was just fine, in fact he was ecstatic, he didn't approve of his mistress fighting for him like a mate, but at least it fucked with his annoying ass court so he was indeed, happy.
Kagome reached the outside walls, her eyes bleeding a deep swirling bright pink, almost red in its intensity.
Her beast was finally coming forth; she had finally unlocked the power that Kikyo had withheld from her since she first came through the well.
'Mistress, it was not time for you to control this power, because it would have been a distraction for you. The Kami's could not allow you to run rampant as you are now, due to Naraku's inhabitance on the earth, but now that he is gone, you can possess the true powers given to you. Today will be the first day you unlock them, today will be your first day of freedom, my lady mistress.'
Kagome screeched and contorted before her face elongated and morphed, her skin slowly became transparent, as her energy began to swirl and make a mass shaped like a large demon beast, transparent and glowing with reiki, Kagome turned and glared, prepare to kill every demon that stood in her way.
Sesshoumaru stood there, his eyes widened as he saw the magnificent creature in front of him.
'Her power almost matches ours, my lord, she is strong, she is beautiful, and she is ours already, make her belong to us, I want her, she is the one.'
"No, you imbecile, she is a miko. It is one thing to fuck a miko, but it is another thing entirely to mate and pup a miko with you supposed heir. I want to make the council annoyed, not angry enough to attempt to over throw me."
'With emphasis on attempt, my lord?'
"Indeed."
'I still want her, and if you don't give her to me, there will be dire consequences, Sesshoumaru.'
The beast's open threat stayed in his mind, "He has never called me Sesshoumaru before, I wonder why he is so adamant about her."
Kagome growled and walked toward the smaller demon, Asukii. Sesshomaru watched as the gorgeous creature fluidly jump and twirled, ripping and tearing away flesh from asukii, "You dare to challenge us? You will pay for you insolence, with death!"
Everyone gasped, none had ever heard a beast speak before, they were primal creatures, with no responsibility unless they were controlled through vigorous training by a Daiyokai, but this was Kagome's, so far as he knew, first changing, and her beast had a mind of its own, they were two entities, two beings.
Kagome could feel the powerful claws dig and scrape away flesh, faintly hearing the whimpers of the losing opponent, and thought she would feel horrible, ashamed, mercy, but she didn't, somehow she didn't feel anything. Like she was sitting back watching a gory movie and couldn't feel a thing, like she wasn't there. Like it wasn't her that was doing this but someone else, is it Nari?'
She thought as she slowly sat up in the quiet back ground she was in, she felt at peace here but, she didn't want to stay,
"Nari? Can you hear me?" a soft sweet voice, resonated through the empty space, responding, "Yes mistress, are you not pleased?"
Kagome quickly shook her head,
"It is not that Nari, it's just I don't feel anything, I don't feel any mercy, or shame, or pain, I have no feelings, yet I am viewing this weaker opponent, get her flesh ripped from her body. Why is that?"
Nari sighed,
'My lady I thought it would help if I put you in the background so that way you wouldn't be emotionally involved, because, you have yet to learn how not to let you emotions rule you. I took that decision alone, and I am sorry if you are displeased, but I thought it for the best."
Kagome sighed,
" I am a little upset, but I can understand your reasoning, I can't believe I'm going to say this, and I'm positive I'll feel sick over it later but, just make this quick, I don't want her to be in too much pain."
Nari nodded, 'Of course mistress, as you wish.'
Kagome watched as a paw swiped across Asukii's neck, and the final whimper escaped Asukii's jaws before she fell to a heap on the ground.
Kagome sucked in a breathe as she morphed back into self, sitting on the ground heaving, and sucking in as much air as she could, her reiki, swarmed around her before being absorbed by her body, and slowly disappearing.
Sesshomaru smirked,
'She is indeed powerful. I must look further into what she is if I am to know the extent of her powers.' he thought as he stepped forward,
"Miko, you will come with me."
He said before picking her up and quietly, gracefully, leaving the area, as he passed he called out to several of his servants,
"Prepare a bath to be brought up, she will not be journeying to the springs this night, as well as a tray of food, she will need sustenance."
Jaken, finally awakening from him reiki-induced slumber groggily replied, "What will you have us do with the court my lord?"
Sesshomaru stopped and turned, "The ones that are unable to travel and return to their homes may stay until they have recuperated, those that are strong enough may leave if they wish. Due to this incident I wish everyone to be accommodated, and for Asukii to be cleaned up off the floor.
"Yes, mi lord."
He took her up the stairs and set her on the bed, taking the few rags left on her body he awaited his servants who came quickly bringing a large white tub filled with steaming water, and a small amount of lilies, just how she liked it. She sighed as Sesshomaru lowered her into the tub...with him in it?
Kagome whipped around,
"Sesshoumaru…what are you doing?"
He smirked, "You have battled this evening, and I am bathing you as I'm sure you're too tired to do much, am I correct?" Kagome sighed and leaned against him,
"I'll let you use that excuse...this time." she said as she yawned whilst he washed her neck and arms and breast and stomach, then her legs and feet and handed her the towel,
"Unless you wish for me to bed you, Kagome, you will wash that area yourself." She nodded as she turned around and continued to wash.
Afterwards he was washing her hair, scrubbing his fingers through the long raven black lochs.
Kagome sighed in pleasure, 'This is just heavenly.'
He finished her hair and then lifted them both from the water, drying her, then himself, off he wrapped a lavender colored silk yukata around her before the servants came in and lifted the tub away after setting the requested food tray before him.
It was laden with fruits and salted meats, plenty for Kagome and Sesshoumaru.
After eating he wrapped his arms around her and held her close, which she didn't object to. "Sesshoumaru?"
"Hn."
"When I was fighting Asukii, I couldn't feel anything."
He looked at her, puzzled, but silent, waiting for her to continue.
"It was like I saw what was happening, but I couldn't feel anything, no sadness, no mercy, no regret, I didn't feel, I couldn't feel. Nari said she did that to protect me, because I wasn't in control of my emotions, and that I wasn't prepared to battle. I don't want to feel that way anymore, I want to be in control, and so I was hoping, maybe you could train me, so I can be ready, when that time comes again?"
Sesshomaru smiled, genuinely.
"Yes, Miko, I will help you, but I cannot help you if you are not rested, go to sleep."
She nodded and turned in his arms before smiling and saying,
"Thank you Sesshomaru, for everything." She leaned up and kissed him softly on the lips.
He kissed her back and smirked,
"Miko, If you wish to train tomorrow you will stop this, or you will be bedridden once more."
She laughed and smiled,
"Of course, mi lord."
then, snuggling closer, she rested her head on his chest, letting sleep descend upon her.
Meanwhile...
"Did you see that shit, she whooped that other chicks ass, I mean like she's fucking dead, did you see that, Aoi?"
Aoi smiled and nodded,
"Yes Inuyasha, I saw it, and I've heard this like a thousand times, don't you have anything else to talk about?"
He laughed,
"I'm serious Aoi, I'm surprised ice-dick didn't stop her, since you're not supposed to, I say right on, she's my best friend and all so yeah, I was totally rooting for her, but I didn't know she could do that! Talk about dinner and a show, this takes the cake of all the coronations I've been to!"
Aoi smiled
"You've been to other coronations, besides this one?"
He nodded,
"Yeah mostly human ones though, and some low level demons, but never one on this scale, you know? But I guess that's what you would expect from "lord" Sesshoumaru, he's always got to try and out do everybody."
Aoi giggled,
"Inuyasha, why don't you come over here and play with me for a while?"
Inuyasha smirked,
'I am so getting laid tonight.'
He thought as he leaned over the bed, and slanted his lips over hers.
Meanwhile...
Shippo yawned,
"Sango? What was all that growling I heard downstairs? How come we couldn't go to the party? Can I have a piece of gum? When am I going to see okaa-san, last time I saw her was yesterday night, its night time again now."
Sango sighed and smiled before saying,
"I don't know why they were growling downstairs Shippo, and We couldn't go to the party because it was a demon party and monks and exterminators aren't exactly buddies, besides,the only reason Kagome went is because it was her coronation, and no you can't have a piece of gum because you going to sleep and if you chew gum in your sleep you'll get it in your hair, and you'll see Okaa-san in the morning, I think she's just really tired from the coronation, night Shippo."
He sighed and rolled over,
"Night, Sango."
Sango smiled before, giving him a hug and closing the door.
"Is he sleep?"
Miroku asked quietly.
Sango shook her head,
"No but if we wait him out, I'm sure he'll be sleep in no time."
They sighed as they leaned against the wall, yawning from chasing Shippo around all day.
"I hope Kagome's getting it better than we are, this kids a total handful, and when you mix it with Rin, they're unstoppable."
"Oh shut it Miroku, you did fine, minus the pig tails, and the flower crown, you didn't do so badly."
Sango giggled before she stiffened.
WHACK!
"Hentai!"
She yelled before storming off.
Miroku sighed, rubbing his head and smiling, "That never gets old."
