Bound Endlessly

by FrenchFlutter

What do you do when you receive a birthday present you never thought in a million years would be possible? What if everything you fought so hard for, was all for nothing? What if you never really made a difference at all? Maybe, just maybe, it's all in how you look at it. Maybe, we are all just bound... bound endlessly to a thing called fate!

Chapter 33: Burn

"Place your hand on the desk, palm up." Rolf told her.

"Why?"

"I need your blood," he said, picking up the dagger, "for the binding to work."

Kagome did as she was told. Rolf took out an alcohol wipe and ran it over the blade. At first, it only stung a little as the knife tip peirced her flesh, but he pressed harder as he drew it across the entire length of her palm, making her wince with pain. Kagome suspected he cut deeper then needed out of spite. He dropped the beads into her cut hand, "Close your hand around the beads." He ordered.

She did as she was told. The beads in her hand began to burn. A red hot glow illuminated her hand, suddenly, and then it was gone.

"Its done. Wrap your hand, but do not set down the beads." He said as he tossed her a roll of gauze. "You will put them on your demon which will remove mine."

Kagome looked at the string of black beads in her hand. Some sort of subjugation beads she was supposed to put on Sesshoumaru. Just what the hell had she gotten herself into?
