Listen to your heart, listen to your soul...
They only traveled a few miles before Sesshomaru started going down, now if Kagome had not been used to riding on inuyasha back, she would have been sick, it was like riding a roller coaster standing up.
"Rin" Kagome whispered, seeing the little girl,
Once Sesshomaru was a few inches from the ground he glided off the cloud and it disappeared. Kagome stumbled off, but kept her cool.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin yelled while running up to him, Seshomaru looked down at the little girl a moment before looking at Jaken.
"Jaken" He stated,
"Yes Mi Lord?"
"We shall return" He stated now walking past the toad,
"Return?" Jaken questioned,
Sesshomaru looked back, his eye cold as ever, "Yes" he stated, and they must have said something silent to each other, because Jaken stumbled back "Return!" He yelled, "But, but-
"We will walk" Sesshomaru stated looking at Kagome,
She nodded and walked to his leaving form,
"Mi Lord, the human miko is here?" Jaken spoke silent, what in the seven hells was going on.
"Hurry master Jaken, or you will be left behind!" Rin called back,
"Hey wait for me!"
Jaken ran after the group, yelling all the while. Kagome now walked beside Sesshomaru "You say return, how long has it been since you have seen your home?" "I have not returned since my fathers death"
kagome gasp, and Sesshomaru picked up her heart beat.
"Is anyone there?"
"I do not know" He told her not looking at her,
"I am most sure that there are still loyal demon there tending my lords home!" Jaken snapped.
"Does this mean Jaken, that I can rid myself of you?" Sesshomaru had spoke those words with no tone change, nor did he look at anyone. Kagome knew he was just teasing the toad. Sesshomaru was not one to joke, even his once in a life time joke didnt sound much like a joke. Jaken has stopped walking and his eyes got big, tears forming.
Rin giggled "Master Jaken, Lord Sesshomaru is just teasing!"
Jaken shook his head "My Lord never jokes!" Jaken yelled back, and so began Rin and Jakens fight. Kagome turned from them, and tuned them out, much like Sesshomaru was doing.
"So, it may or may not have anyone living in it?"
"My mother my be there"
Kagome stopped "M, mother, you have a mother?"
Sesshomaru stopped and looked back at her "Yes miko, even this Sesshomaru has a mother"
Kagome blinked a few times "I've never heard you speak about her"
"For what reason would I have to speak of my mother to you" He looked at her a moment more before walking again "Come, we are close"
Kagome nodded and followed .
They reached the castle walls within minutes, Sesshomaru looked at the tall walls. Once long ago demon males lined these walls, ready to protect. Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes and began to walk under the pass. Kagome took to walking behind him.
"Afraid miko"
"No" She snapped, "It's just your home, you go first"
They reached the door and Sesshomaru moved his hand to push the door open, but before he had the chance, the door opened, behind it stood two guards, they bowed. Kagome gasp, they had not felt them, no doubt the castle was behind some spell.
"Lord Sesshomaru, come, come"
Jaken, Rin and Shippo looked around, they did not see the person who fit the voice. Soon Sesshomaru was looking at his own shoulder,
"Myoga?" Kagome stated looking at the tiny demon "So this is were you run to!" "Hey, someone has to keep my Lords castle running, young lord here does not"
"You are my fathers retainer?" Sesshomaru asked,
"Why yes I am, and I am now faithful to Lord Inuyasha"
Myoga found himself between to claws, then flicked,
"How fitting, a flea for a mutt"
Now that Kagome thought about it, it was pretty funny, dog demon with a demon flea, ha.
"The castle is still running?" Sesshomaru asked,
"Indeed it is" myoga said now jumping on Kagome "Kagome, what are you doing here!"
"The miko requires a bath"
"Your here for a bath?" The flea asked confused,
"No, and that can wait, Sesshomaru, we need to talk"
"Very well, rid yourself of that blood sucker and come with me"
Kagome rolled her eyes and put Myoga on the ground then followed Sesshomaru up the stone made steps. The whole castle as made of gray stone. Sesshomaru took Kagome to a room, it was covered in dust and had one desk and many old dirty books, some on the floor, some on the desk others one the wall.
"Speak"
"I cant believe it" Kagome said going to a window with no glass, "It has started"
Sesshomaru waited,
"Sesshomaru, I come from 5oo years in the future" She met his eyes "In my time, there are no demons"
"Why does this concern me, why seek me out?"
"Sesshomaru, it's your kind, how can you not care?"
"My kind?" He snapped "I am the last of my blood line save that half breed" He once again snapped,
"I don't mean your family I meant your kind, demon, as in my kind human!" She yelled at him.
"You have already stated this at the meadow miko"
Kagome turned from him, she leaned out the window a little and took in a deep breath of air. "Don't you get it, I've thought about this long and hard, what to do, who to save and who to let die, only I have the power, I can leave it be and let it be, or, or I can change the future"
She looked back at him "I've searched my heart and soul for what to do" She looked away from him, a slow breeze played with her hair,
"I have to fight, why should I stand here and let the innocent die, I know Inuyasha will one day die, but Shippo- Kagome stopped, she turned to him,
"Help me"
She was asking him for help, why, why help her, why did she dare ask, did she forget at one time he himself tried to kill her, hell she had spent 3 years of her life killing the kind she was now trying to save, why, for what?
"You have this power in your hands miko" He folded his arms "This is how you use it?"
She wanted to ask what he would do, like any normal person would ask who was seeking help, but it was pointless to ask him such a question, she knew the answer.
He unfolded his arms "Tell me miko" He walked close to her "Why are you so afraid"
She didn't fear him, so why was she so scared,
She looked him dead in the eyes "Because, they are after me to"
