To Taint A Pure Soul

by Kira Hatake

There are two sides to every soul a tainted black side and a pure white side. Kagome is the purest being alive but after the well is destroyed in a battle and she can no longer return to her family in the future. Then the betrayal of those she called her friends and family from the past. Stranded with no one to turn to will the darkness that resides in every soul overcome our dear

The next morning Kagome was still sleeping comfortably well past dawn. This is how an angry Sesshomaru found her when he finally decided to hunt her down since she did not show up at the appropriate time. He let out a deep angry growl he was surprised she did not wake when he threw her door open. He walked to her futon to see her curled into a little ball blanket surrounding her like a cocoon. She screamed when her warm blanket was snatched away and she was unceremoniously thrown over a shoulder.

Beating on his back with her little fists Kagome screamed, "PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW SESSHOMARU!"

Sesshomaru continued walking unfazed by her outburst, "If you had come to the gardens at the time we agreed on you would not be in this situation miko. Now stop that noise."

Kagome continued on screaming and hitting his back. Megumi and Sakura where watching from around the corner and followed as Sesshomaru made his way to the garden. Kagome screamed even louder when she felt herself flying through the air only to land in the koi pound in the middle of the garden. She glared at Sesshomaru while Megumi and Sakura where staring wide eyed trying not to laugh at her.

Sesshomaru smirked down at her, "This will be your punishment every time This Sesshomaru must retrieve you for training. You will also train in the same clothes you are wearing now."

Kagome stared at him with wide eyes now, "You cannot be serous I am soaking wet plus this is my sleeping yukata."

Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes at her, "If you cannot deal with the punishment be here on time. Now get out of the pound so This Sesshomaru may begin your training."

Kagome climbed out of the pound with a huff, "Fine."

Sesshomaru spoke as he led to sit under some sakura trees, "We will begin with meditation until lunch then to hand to hand combat until dinner. Mother has acquired a miko to assist in training you with your reiki."

Kagome sighed, "When will we start the training with my beast?"

Sesshomaru thought for a moment before speaking, "This Sesshomaru believes you have gained an older beast and that is a large help to you. Has she spoken to you yet?"

Kagome shook her head no.

Sesshomaru gave a slight nod, "Your beast may speak to you while we meditate. Your beast will guide you through most of you training with your powers and such. This Sesshomaru will be handling your combat training and when the miko arrives in the morning she will be handling the rest of your training. Once she is here you will be training with This Sesshomaru in the mornings before lunch and with the miko after lunch."

Kagome just nodded her head and sat down in front of him. Sesshomaru raised a brow at her when she continued to just watch him.

Kagome noticed this and blushed, "I have never meditated before."

Sesshomaru would have sighed if he were any other demon but he did not, "Close your eyes and clear your mind think only of your breathing."

Kagome nodded her head and did as told even though all she wanted to do was scream at him some more.
