So after all this time I need to tell you I don't own Inuyasha. ^_^

The Yōkai Child

A crush and getting crushed part three

As Sesshomaru grew closer to where she was. He hesitated he wanted to pound some scents in to her. But it was not his place to do so, it wasn't like she was his. He couldn't even form the word 'Mate' in his head next to her. But ever since he had learned her name from that Dragon. He was battling with himself on what he was gonna do. There was only one thing to do about breaking that deal she made and that was making her, his...Still he refused to think of her and said word together.

Some low level yokai had unknowingly wonder in to the wrong place. The moment he spotted them he attacked them killing them with no ounce of effort what so ever. He looked at his claws and thought back to the first time he had used his claws on her. She had started to heal even after he inflicted such a deadly wound. That would have killed most anything with just a single drop. It made him question where she came from. And why she was black instead of white like the rest of his kind. In her human form she had not a mark on her to show she was anything but human. But she wasn't human, he knew this since they first fought.

Thinking about this was getting him no where. So he decided he would decide what to do after fighting her. This settled him greatly since it involved seeing her. A being close to her without know what she meant to him yet. He picked up her scent and followed it.

"So where do we go to next Shippo?" she asked him looking at a map he had happened upon in the next small village they went through. Kagome looked at it and frowned at it, there where things she could remember and everything else was questionable.

But all thought about traveling vanished when something changed in the air. Shippo commented first. "Kagome I am scared." Shippo whined as a shadow came closer to them.

"Shippo run as far away as you can." she said shaking at the pressure this being put out. But Shippo shook his head at her words.

"No I won't abandon you Kagome." he said putting up a brave front. That even Kagome could see through. Sesshomaru had heard ever word clearly, even though he was still quite far away.

When Kagome seen him in the sunlight she fell to her knees. She craddled her head in the palms of her hands. Pain shot through her as thing she needed to remember came crashing at a wall. There was something that was blocking her from remembering who he was. She didn't know a word had slipped out of her mouth as she couldn't think through the pain.

"Sessy you old meanie." It was childish and it made him stop. Shippo looked at her and barly held back a laugh, as he looked at the silver haired yokai. Sesshomaru looked at her, and not onec had he told her his name! Let alone that nickname that only those who wanted to die called him. Before he got any closer Kagome's face flew up and he could see her eyes roll back in to her head. As her body fell forward on to the ground.

Slowly she started to move to get up. This time he seen her eyes they were diffrent. Like when she tranceformed but she showed no sign of doing so.

"Still not strong enough to break the seal." he said looking at her as she stood looking at him. A scream escaped her as her body fought to change. Her hair grew slightly long as did her teeth and nails. Her breath came in short pants as it became harder to breath. Shippo watched as Kagome turned from the sweet girl who helped him in to something wild. It scared him but her would not leave her side.

"Kitsune I would leave now if you value your life." he said knowing she would look for the boy when she woke. Shippo shook his head with tears running down his face. His hands were balled up and he was trying not to cry out loud. Sesshomaru ignored him after that.
