Sesshomaru used his claw to cut her bindings off so that he could cleanse any wounds under the binding material. Naomi looked over her shoulder saying, "You do know I was just allowing you to satisfy your Inu Yokai instincts. I could have easily healed myself all I'd need is a hot spring."

Sesshomaru growled continuing until her back was thoroughly cleaned then saying, "Some of those would have left marks if not treated right away. Plus there was poison in the wounds that would have made you sick had I not cleaned it."

Naomi asked, "Well since your done repaying your debt to me can you please step out so I can redress?"

Sesshomaru turned around giving Naomi the privacy she needed. She knew this was the best she was going to get until after they left the area. She looked in the dresser taking a Kimono top out, and putting it on hers would need to be washed, and repaired. The tops were designed for a male, so it didn't fit properly but would do until they reached a village. She put her old one over the new one to hide her modesty. She closed it before saying, "I am ready to go we should head directly to the nearest village."

Sesshomaru was about to growl at her for putting the blood-soaked garment back on until he realized a new scent to her. He threw open her Kimono earning a hard slap across the face. He could clearly see what was one of Naraku's upper Kimonos. It dipped dangerously low into her cleavage and hugged tightly against her breast showing off her pert nipples. He could feel his blood heat up, and his member twitch in excitement at the site. He closed her back up quickly before he replied: "This Sesshomaru understands, and will take you where you can get new clothes, and bindings."

Naomi glared at him saying,"You didn't have to look you Hentai asking would have given you the information you needed." Kiba came in asking, "Is everything alright Naomi?"

Naomi replied, "It's fine we are going to head to where I can get a new Kimono top, and then I believe Lord Sesshomaru will have completed what he needs to so that his Yokai is satisfied."

Kiba took her hand pulling her close saying, "Good I am unhappy as it is that he insisted on healing you when we are courting but I understand Yokai needs, so I am working hard to accept it." Kiba brought her in closer before asking, "Did he see anything?"

Naomi replied, "He was a perfect gentleman until after I redressed when he insisted on opening up my damaged Kimono I believe he was worried about the blood attracting powerful Yokai but he could have asked me and not expose me. I did slap him for it, so I believe he has paid for his actions."

Kiba growled at Sesshomaru before asking, "May I see what he saw?"

Naomi blushed before turning to open it so that he'd only see Kiba growled, and his eyes bleed from the sight before him. He helped her close it; he had seen more than plenty. He turned to Sesshomaru saying, "After you replace her Kimono I expect you to leave unless you wish to fight me for the right to court her."

Sesshomaru glared at him saying, "I may just consider your offer."

It was eerily quiet all the way to where they could get a new kimono for Naomi. Sango and Miroku had buried her brother and were heading back to the slayer village to rebuild it. InuYasha and Kagome were heading back to Kaede so that Kagome could continue her training while helping the elderly woman out. She was now traveling with just Kiba, and Sesshomaru the travel to a tailor had been long, and quiet both men glaring at the other like they were waiting for the other to make one wrong move. They finally arrived at the demoness Sesshomaru had chosen to create a new Kimono for Naomi. Sesshomaru knocked then stepped back as he returned to glaring at Kiba. The demoness stepped out finding only the Miko on her steps she asked, "Why are you here Miko?"

Naomi pointed to Sesshomaru saying, "I protected Sesshomaru, and he insisted that I come here for a new Kimono. I told him anywhere would do I didn't need anything special or fancy."

She sniffed the air, and cold smell the dried blood on the clothes she was wearing. She looked at the two men totally distracted with staring each other down. She looked at the female saying, "Explain the situation, Miko."

Naomi replied, "Kiba is courting me, and Sesshomaru saw the male Kimono top I had to use for cover but for reasons of modesty I couldn't leave the bloody Kimono behind."

She pulled the Miko inside, and closed the door before saying, "You will show me what he saw." Naomi dropped her bloody Kimono her eyes widened, and instantly she understood what was going on. She smirked asking, "How comfortable are you with your body?"

Naomi replied, "I…I don't know I never showed my body off as I prefer modest clothing."

The woman nodded before helping her remove her clothes so that she could get proper measurements. Once she was done measuring she helped Naomi put a robe on saying, "Your name Miko." She replied, "It's Naomi what would yours be."

She waved her hand as she pulled her over to where the fabrics until she reached the colors that called to her. She placed the colors on Naomi finally deciding which ones she'd use. She started with black shorts for the bottoms she made sure it was form-fitting for ease of movement during fighting. She then used a light purple with black trim and silver that appeared white as an accent. She made the Kimono modest yet form-fitting with slits that went high on the legs for free movement during battle. As she was putting the finished top on she noticed demonic striping appearing on her skin as the purple neared her body. The woman growled, "Take the concealment off." She sighed dropping the concealment not wanting to get into a fight over it. The woman stepped back shocked fixing the top with a special lining of Spider silk before returning the completed garment to her body. She turned to Naomi saying, "You may return to concealing yourself Miko." They both went outside the woman yelled, "Lord Sesshomaru you owe me now pay up."

Sesshomaru turned and dropped some gold in the woman's hand before looking Naomi over what he saw took his breath away the woman was positively stunning. It made his blood race and called to him to claim this bitch as his own. He turned to Kiba saying, "I have decided to fight you for her as I wish to court her."
