Heart of Tensaiga
Waiting
He had been in the house all day alone while the little boy went to something he called a school. His demon hearing picked up various noises such as things whooshing by and loud blaring noises that aggravated him. After a few more hours, he heard the door knob to the front start to turn and a very weary mother walked through and closed the door behind her.
Upon seeing the demon that looked at her as if expecting answers she said, "Kagome is fine. She had an oncoming pneumonia; but with the medicines today she should be fine and ready to come home tomorrow. The only thing to do right now is to wait until she is able to return." Rubbing her tired eyes she smiled at him and held out her hand in greeting, "Hello, I'm Mrs. Higurashi."
Sesshomaru stared down at her hand and wondered what he was supposed to do with it. The gesture was strange to him; however, he did recognize the formalities of introduction and bowed in respect and stated, "Lord Sesshomaru."
She lowered her hand in understanding that he was from the past and indeed did not know about the form of introduction known as the hand shake. "What happened to my daughter and where is Inuyasha? Also, how were you able to travel through the well?"
Sesshomaru gestured towards the table with chairs and she sat down without question. "Your daughter became ill during a demon attack while traveling with this Sesshomaru."
