Miko no more
chapter 6
"talking"
'thought'
Kagome walked over to the shore stepping out of the water. She reached into her bag and pulled out her miko garb.
'Guess I'll have to wear this til my other clothes are dry' she thought
After put her clothing on, Sesshomaru walked into the clearing. As he unmasked his aura, Kagome looked in his direction.
" What is it Lord Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked
"I am escorting you. I will be staying near until we know what Naraku is up to." he said
"Oh, thank you very much Lord Sesshomaru" Kagome said
"Where is Inuyasha?" she asked
" Off looking for the dead one" he replied
'That's not surprising' she thought
"Where is everyone else?" Kagome asked.
"The slayer and monk are playing with Shippo." he said
"At least they are having fun. Will you walk with me for a bit, I don't feel like going back yet." she asked
"Where are we walking to?" he asked
"To one of my favorite spots around here. Most humans won't come down this far." Kagome said
"One of your favorite spots?" he asked
"Yes. Not much I can hide from you considering you have already seen me naked." Kagome stated
"Why would you seek out places for solitude?" he asked
"Dealing with your brother" she said
"He could find you by scent" he said
"True, but good luck. I remember him telling me of a type of flower that dulls his sense of smell."
"That's because he is only half demon" he stated
They continued in comfortable silence until they came to what looked like a wall. Kagome walked over to it and lifted a wall of vines, revealing a tunnel. She smiled, then went into the tunnel. He followed never knowing it was there. She kept walking with Sesshomaru right behind her. She came to a smaller opening and ducked inside. Sesshomaru did the same though he was barely able to fit through the opening. Kagome giggled at his awkward maneuvering. She walked into a big open room. There was a big spring and water flowers covered the ground except a small walkway down to the water. Sesshomaru recognized the flowers right away as moon flowers.
"I see why Inuyasha could never find you" he stated
"I love this place it's a hot spring and the flowers glow. which puts off just enough light to see. I have been here often, when I want to be alone or to think. It's a good place to meditate." she said
" If you come here to be alone why did you show this Sesshomaru?"
stay tuned till next time
