InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Cold Heart For a Dead Soul ❯ Enter Sesshoumaru ( Chapter 6 )
Chap. 6
He scampered off to the back of the house. I could sense at least three other Dark Lighters here, two or three Nighters, and two definite demons. I moved to the living room catching the eyes of the three Dark Lighters. "Good day." I whispered sitting on the table. Chairs, and there were plenty, are not for me. I prefer to stand than sit around.
They broke their eyes away when Kagura entered. "Kagome!! I did not expect you for some time… how have you been?"
"We can not talk here, too many ears to hear. I will tell you everything, but do you have a safe room here as you did else where too?"
"Of course, come. It's back here." She grabbed my arm and pulled me to a back room. The door was solid wood carved with every detail. The scene displayed was of a ship, wooden planks worn by the sea, a pirate flag waved in the wind, blown by some wind god, in the upper corner of the door, under the sea the god of the dead held his hand out to receive the ship. But it was the man on the ship where my eyes rested.
He alone made me not want to look away for he was the mirror image of the hanyou I had left in Salem. Kagura had paused in the door when she saw my interest.
"It was imported a few weeks ago by one of the demons living upstairs. He's a dog youkai, and that looks exactly like him. I'll call him if you want to meet him."
"No I'll talk to you first." I realized my voice had an accent, the accent that started when I was changed.
Her eyes met mine and must have felt the tension behind the look I gave her. "What's wrong?"
I shook my head and forced a smile. "It's nothing, I met a hanyou. He's a cop, a very interesting cop."
"Is there a name or are you stalking him still?"
"I was never stalking him, he was stalking me. His name is Inu-Yasha Tioshi. He knew Kouga…" My voice broke.
"Oh baby, come here." She pulled me close like my mother used to, my head on her chest and her hand stroking my hair. I didn't pull away. I couldn't, I needed a mother right now.
~*~*~*~
I felt the Dark Lighter enter and became overcome with the scent of my hanyou brother. I hissed at this and started to go down stairs. I saw her stop at the door I had found. I knew she saw Inu-Yasha in that ship, I watched from the shadows as she walked into the room with Kagura.
She asked about the door… it brought a smile to my lips before that damn Nighter found me. "You need to be upstairs, Youkai."
"I have a name brat, and it's about time you learn it." I twist my hand in the front of his shirt lifting him off the ground and shoving him to the wall. I took out a knife. The blade sunk into his skin and I carved a `s' before a voice behind me alerted me I had been caught.
"Stop Sesshoumaru, he is just a young one." Kagura's voice said lightly making me drop the boy.
"fine." I turned to see the Dark Lighter who had come here standing beside Kagura. Her eyes were glued on the Nighter who was bleeding behind me. She looked at me with dark chocolate eyes that pierced my soul. I recognized her immediately.
"My lady (Possessive are we?), why have you graced your presence here?" I said bowing to my queen.
"Your lady? Good sir, you must have mistaken me for some one else." She responded with out pausing for a second.
"You are Lady Kikyou are you not?" I asked with growing anticipation. She had a smile forming on her lips.
"No I'm Kagome Higarashi from Salem and you are?"
"I am sorry Lady Kagome for the mistake. I am Sesshoumaru from no where imparticular." I stood now. The boy behind me had stood and left the room.
"Now that you two are acquainted, Sesshoumaru she knows your brother I believe… talk to her. I have work to do." Kagura left. Lady Kagome stood staring at me with an arched eyebrow.
"So you know Inu-Yasha? What has become of him?" I asked turning away to avoid her gaze.
"You hate him? There is hate in your voice, you must-"
"I do not hate him. He hates me. Why does everyone ask if I hate my brother? He's my blood, how could you hate something of the same blood?" I cut her off. She smiled, as I turned back to her.
"Alright, whatever you say. About the door, your work is good." She walked towards the front door pausing for my next question.
"How did you know?"
"Your aura is distinct within it's grooves, I almost recognized it as your brothers, but that would have been stupid of me. Tell Kagura I said farewell, I have other business to attend to in Concord before the sun rises. Good bye Lord Sesshoumaru." She shut the door before I could answer.
~*~*~*~
I would not go to Concord tonight. I wanted the presence of Kouga to engulf me as it had once done but I feared it because he made me forget. When we were together I forgot my home, my family, my life, I would even forget Inu if I went to him tonight. That couldn't happen, not now at least.
Sesshoumaru baffled me, he had lied about hating his brother. I pitied him for such a lie. He spoke of what I was thinking but still he did not believe his own words. Lying through your teeth is what you call it. I did not linger on these thoughts as I entered my own territory. There was a Nighter at my house when I arrived and I was not in the mood to mess with her.
"Sango leave me alone."
"But Kagome-sama you must understand, this cop is dangerous. The high council is even talking about him. You are in danger." She pleaded with me.
"I already told you I don't care what the council says, as far as I'm concerned they are just old people bossing the children around. And I am a rebel child. I don't give a fuck about what Mommy and Daddy say. Okay?" I barked back.
"Fine but when they decide that he's too much of a danger I don't want you to get hurt if they put him to death. Or you for that matter…"
"Go away Sango. Just leave me alone to worry about myself okay?"
"fine." She disappeared in thin air. I closed my eyes for a mere second.
"Oh Gods help me…"
