Secret behind Wisdom & Secret Love
"Have you ever watched a body be buried without a coffin?" "No" "have you ever heard the screams of someone being cremated alive?" "No" "have you ever been force to see someone being kidnapped, then raped, stabbed, humiliated. And treated as slaves then have their clothes ripped right off their bodies and dragged to a river where the person whispers to the person that, that place, in that very river is where they will cut their throat and throw them in their to never see their family ever again?" "…No" "one more question" silver reddish eyes that instantly turned blackish silver looked up to meet traditional brown eyes. "Are you lying?" "…"
They couldn't really believe it, nor did some of them want to, Kagome had her back facing them and her long raven black hair swayed in a hypnotizing way, they noticed that she wore a plain black kimono with heelless shoes and a black cloak that went over the whole outfit. Shippo and Miroku stared at the woman before them with shock, they couldn't believe it Kagome still looked…the same, as though six years had not ever passed, but only one.
In slow like motion Kagome turned her head to look at them from over her shoulder, her liquid vortex blue eyes flashed to reddish silver then to brown with blue and silver flexes in them that everyone remembered so well. Eyes drooping a bit and a frowned started to form on her plumped kissable looking lips "he who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it." With that said Kagome turned her head back around and walked away towards the forest but before she even entered the forest she slowly vanished, as though she was a ghost, leaving a confused and kind of scared group at her wake.
At the western palace Rin was humming to herself as she picked some flowers from the gardens, some strands of her hair blew back as the wind blew from the east. She smiled then tucked the strands behind her hair then continue on with her flower picking 'Lord Sesshomaru will love these for sure' she thought giggling to herself in delight of seeing her lord's eyes as they glowed with warmth 'and only for me' she sighed dreamily then giggled again. Yes, after years of traveling with her lord she had suddenly fell in love with him, not in a fatherly way, but in a lover kind of way, she could just imagine what their children will look like, this made her blush then shook her head while smiling.
She touched her cheek and looked up at the sky then sighed dazedly 'I hope that we will be together' "Rin!" called an annoying voice that belong to no other than Jaken, Sesshomaru's loyal servant also his brief entertainer. She sighed and rolled her eyes then went back to pick her flowers as though she didn't hear him, the sounds of Jaken's footsteps came closer. "Rin, can't you hear me calling you impetrating child" Rin sighed once again "yes, I heard you Jaken, I just don't feel like listening to you and oh, I am not a child anymore." Jaken stopped right behind her and hmphed "well by human law, you are until you reach your fourteenth summer" at the sound of this, the sound of the truth, Rin held the flowers that she held in her hand tighter that it made the flower bend a little.
'That's true, I am not a woman until I reach my maturity year, does Lord Sesshomaru still sees me as a child?' she pondered about this until she heard the rich baritone voice of her secret lover. "Rin what are you still doing out here, it is time to go eat dinner" Rin stood up on her feet and looked at her lord, she gazed into her golden eyes then quickly looked down to hide her blush that she knew was starting to form on her face. "I'm sorry Lord Sesshomaru, I guess I lost track of time" she said in a soft voice "hm, its okay, now go inside and change, then come down to eat dinner" "okay Lord Sesshomaru" Rin started to walk towards the palace when she remembered the flowers that she picked for him. She turned back and ran towards him "oh, I almost forgot, I picked these for you" she lifted the bouquet of flowers to him while looking away shyly.
Sesshomaru looked at the beautiful variety of lowers that were in the small hands of his ward that he came to see as his daughter. A ghost of a smile appeared on his face then he grabbed the flowers in her small hands with his sensitive ears he could hear her heart beat faster and blood rush more quickly under the thin layer of skin. He gave a curt nod "thank you Rin, now go inside and wash up" Rin quickly nodded then ran off inside the palace to do what her lord has told her to.
Wet, she felt wet and she smelled…water? 'What in God's name?' groaning a bit Kagome slowly opened her eyes with some difficulties, it was as though she been in some kind of sleep for thirty years or something. When she finally opened her eyes she met a black mineral ceiling, blinking a few times, she turned her neck to her right, wincing when her neck cracked 'holy shit, how long, have I been asleep? Oh, I can only imagine how much paperwork I have to do, also patrolling the lands, seeing the villages, the crops. Oh shit, I was supposed to have a meeting with the Emperor in Beijing, fuckscrewballsmotherfuckingsonofabitchcocksuckinghomosexualqueeremofaggotluckshitfaceasswipe.'
(Fuck screw balls mother fucking son of a bitch cock sucking homosexual queer emo faggot luck shit face ass wipe.)
Kagome almost screamed as someone spoke close into her ear "I see you are finally awake" turning her head to look upward she saw one of her best healers, Shinzo, he was one of the greatest that not even doctors in her time, which had a degree in medics, could surpass in knowledge and tactic. Shinzo was not much of a fighter though he had a brilliant mind in telling which area in the body that could kill an immortal demon instantly or painfully slowly. He even knew how to do surgery, which took Kagome a months of not sleeping just to teach him where to cut first and where not to cut, also how deeply he should cut parts of the body that it would be easy to stitch back together. ALSO what parts of the body skin you could cut off and put on a wound that is too severely damage to heal back on its own then the part of that body skin that was cut will heal back quickly, which was the foot skin and other places.
Blinking a few times, seeming to remember her current situation, she looked at her medical pupil "Shinzo" she started then started to cough by how dry it was. It felt like she drank a whole bucket of sand. Shinzo instantly went over to the other side of the room where the pots were, he opened one of the pots then grabbed a cup and dunked it into it, taking a good amount of the liquid, then put the lid back on and ran over to where the coughing Kagome was without ever spilling a drop.
"Here, drink this" he said gently, he pressed the cup to Kagome's dried chapped lips, her hand came up to grab the side of the cup and started to drink the liquid as though she hadn't drank in years. The sweet tropical taste of coconut hit her taste senses 'delicious' taking the cup she downed the drink in two big gulps, Shinzo looked at her with amazement, since that liquid had some other herbs in it that it could knock out even a dog demon with one lick.
"Ah, that tasted good and my throat feels a lot better" Kagome said in a light calm voice that it was like wind whispers to Shinzo's ears. He took the cup from Kagome's hands she turned and looked at him "may I ask how long I was unconscious?" Shinzo walked over to the other side of the room to put the cup away. "About a month" "a month," Kagome groaned, "that makes the whole situation worse" she lay back down on the bed and closed her eyes, letting out a light sigh. Shinzo looked over at her from over his shoulder feeling sympathy for the poor girl who was like a victim to society, it was true that the Southern people respected Lady Kagome greatly, but some from other lands despised her for reasons that they didn't even know.
Putting the cup away on the shelf, nice and clean, he walked back over towards Kagome then kneeled down right beside the bed where her head was turned to her. She opened one eye to look at him then the other one, he put on a small reassuring smile "no worries Lady Kagome, Kouga and Shiori has been keeping everything in order. Also the Village generals has been taking care of the farm lands and crops" he said, not wanting his lady to be in distress again, heck even the paperwork that were sent to her were kept to a minimal amount.
Kagome sighed with relief, happy that she didn't have to do much then she first thought 'thank you to whatever god that was listening to me up there' she mentally praised. Shinzo patted her arm "you get a bit more rest then later on some of the healers will examine you to see if you are well enough to wander off again" an anime sweat drop appeared behind Kagome's head 'what am I, four?' she nodded to the healer "thanks." Letting out one more sigh she closed her eyes and fell into a light slumber.
Shinzo watched as his lady fell back to sleep, he stood there watching her for a while then stood up and walked towards the door to inform everyone of her condition also go meet with Jinenji to ask him about the effects of that herbal coconut drink. Shinzo looked to around his mid-forties, light brown hair that reached his lower back and had a red sheen to it when any kind of light shined on it. His cinnamon colored eyes shined with knowledge and warmth, but turned to a dark maroon color when his eyes grow hard when he's hearing bad news or have to fight or argue with someone. He had a scar on his right cheek from when he was just a teenager in human years; he was a red wolf demon, when he fought to defend his clan, though only a few remain now. He wore the healer kimono but a bit different, instead of black and silver it was a black haori and hakama with red silk edges and black heelless boots. Behind him his red tail swished about as he thought deeply about this whole situation, he may not be an expert in the arts of the human miko power design, but he could tell that something was off about his lady, she talked as though she was older, her eyes looked as though she was expecting something to happen at any given time, and her expression seemed too calm and peaceful for comfort.
"What has happened to you Lady Kagome?" he whispered himself, not know that the real question he was really supposed to ask was "what had happened?"
Back in the H.E.R, Kagome was wide awake and sitting on the bed with her legs tucked under her chin, her eyes stared at the unmoving waters in the middle of the room. Her mind was completely blank while her body was completely numb that she didn't even know if she was even breathing though she didn't care at the moment right now she was worrying about the upcoming event that was going to take place soon in the near future, something that might be the end of Japan or the end of her. Her lips pressed together making a tight thin line and her brows furrowed together 'whatever the situation might be, I'll be prepared for it, its time I stop being the hunted and become the hunter' a light gust of wind blew into the room out of nowhere and blew out the lit candles enveloping the whole room in complete darkness.
Kage: I am really sorry that I went back on my word and didn't update before Octorber was over, I hope you guys can forgive me for taking so long, well it would seem that no one was confused about anything so no questions for today and the person (who shall remain unnamed), I don't really care about my mistakes and will not go fix them since everyone does not seem to mind about the mistakes. Like you hear ALL THE TIME, everyone makes mistakes and doesn't really give a damn, and if you lost your concentration that's ur fault not the mistakes, hell, even my teachers read this and said it was okay and there were no mistakes. Well anyways thank you for those who patiently waited for this chapter to arrive and R&R&Q, tah-tah.
