Heart of Tensaiga
Phase Two
Kagome slipped away from the stream feigning when she returned that she had forgotten something very vital to her bath taking. Upon reaching Ah-Uh, whose packs stored what was needed for the small group to be comfortable during travel, she let out a small sigh. "Forget it, I'm just too tired," she mumbled, knowing full well that Jaken had heard.
His reply was a gruff, "What are you going on about human?"
"Well," she started with a yawn, "I was going to take a special bath. You see in the spring I put herbs that have a smell Lord Sesshomaru favors; but, I'm just too tired. A shame too, he probably would have appreciated the nice smell for a change." She inwardly cringed at putting herself down but it needed to be done for phase two to work.
She heard a 'humph' and 'human' mixed with unintelligible grumblings that she was certain meant nothing pleasant about herself. Kagome laid down on the ground and pretended to sleep for almost twenty minutes. She had begun to worry since the mixture would only last another ten minutes before the water started to cancel it out. Biting her lip, her ears strained to hear any evidence that the little imp went for the bait. Of course a tiny part of her felt bad about it; but, then she remembered how Sesshomaru's gift had almost been ruined because of the stupid imp.
All too soon she was rewarded with the sound of a splash.
