InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Witch's Spell ❯ Oh, My GOD. You're real ( Chapter 3 )
Sadly, they aren't mine. I only use them for my wicked fantasies.
Chapter 3
The next day, Kristen heard Camille coming in. "Hey did you take my chips?", she demanded.
"Why would I take those salty things, especially right now?", Camille answered her question with one of her own.
Kristen laughed, "You know me so well. It's weird, they just disappeared. I even asked Joey and he said he didn't eat them."
Camille laughed, "Maybe your man came out of the computer and took them."
"Funny you should mention him. I had the strangest dream last night. In it, I was in bed sleeping and woke up to find him standing there staring at me.", Kristen said.
"That's all the stress of finals and having to write that stupid story. He was in your dream, because you stared at his picture all day.", Camille smiled at her.
"I'm sure you are right. At least, I took the last test today, and I'm done with school until after the holidays.", she grinned.
"Now, you will start working overtime and won't go have fun.", Camille said.
Kristen sighed, "I know, but I need the money for school. What am I supposed to do?"
"Let it go and have some fun. You are studying and working your life away. You know your mother didn't want that for you. Kristen, you sit at this computer just about all day. Either your working or studying on it.", Camille said.
Kristen shot her a look and raised her chin.
Camille raised her hand, "Okay, you win. I'll leave it alone, if you promise me one thing."
"What's that?", Kristen asked.
"Go out with Terry's friend Tom tonight.", Camille announced.
"I'll agree to it, if this is the LAST time you set me up on a blind date. That rule will stick even if he never calls me again.", she stated.
"Deal. He'll pick you up at seven. I know you are going to like him. He is always so polite and considerate. A perfect gentleman.", Camille smiled at her.
"We'll see. Come on, I guess I have to find something to wear and get ready.", Kristen got up and walked away from the computer.
Sesshomaru, who had been watching her all day, was surprised when she mentioned seeing him. He had thought she was still sleeping when she sat up that quickly.
As he watched her leave, he decided now would be the time to check on his ward and servant. He wanted to make sure they were okay. He left the cave and headed to the cave they were holed up in.
Sesshomaru rushed to get back, telling himself it was to observe her and that he had to figure out how to stop her spell.
Kristen walked into the living room, Camille right behind her. "Oh Midnight, I keep telling you not to get on my desk.", she shooed the cat down, hitting the mouse and waking the monitor.
Camille smiled at her, "My you look so pretty." Her eyes taking in the wine colored, pencil skirt; the golden, silk tank top. Her hair was up, showing off her neck; her make up minimal.
"Thank you, very much.", Kristen returned the smile. The door bell stopped any further conversation and Camille ran to answer it.
She returned shortly with a rather large man with her. He had black hair and blue eyes and was very well built. "Tom let me introduce Kristen. Kristen this is Tom.", Camille said.
Kristen smiled at him and held out her hand, he took it and bent over it, kissing it lightly. "The pleasure is mine.", he smiled at her. Kristen blushed and dropped her eyes.
Tom's smile grew and he held out his arm, "Shall we?"
Kristen grinned at him, "Yes, thank you, kind sir." Allowing him to lead her outside, pausing only to help her slip on her coat.
Sesshomaru was stunned. He couldn't fathom allowing a woman to leave with a man alone that she had just met. Especially that one, Sesshomaru could tell he was up to something. He hoped that she would be unharmed, but doubted it.
He sighed and sat down to wait until she came back. His mind again going to the problem of making himself known to her, without scaring her to death.
"Come on in and have some coffee.", Kristen smiled at Tom, thinking how much of a gentleman he had been all night and that it wouldn't hurt to offer. She led him into the living room and showed him to the couch.
"I'll be right back.", she said as he sat back and relaxed. She came back a few minutes later with a tray bearing coffee, cream and sugar.
She sat down beside him, after she handed him his coffee, and started to chat with him. Continuing the conversation from earlier.
Suddenly, he put his cup down and took hers, putting it beside it. He captured her hands in his, "Do you know how pretty you are?"
Kristen blushed and shook her head. "Yes, you are very pretty. I'm glad that Terry told me about you. I prefer to date girls who have little or no experience. I would like the woman I marry to be pure or almost pure. So, I look for good girls.", he smiled at her.
He had frightened her a little, but allowed herself to relax, after what he said. She thought he would not try anything untoward with her.
He leaned forward and gave her a gentle kiss. As he pulled away she gave him a small smile.
Suddenly, he was on top of her, pushing her back against the couch. "Hey, what are you doing? Let me up.", she yelled and pushed against him with her hands.
It threw him off balance enough that she could get out of his grasp. She jumped to her feet, "I think you should leave now." Slowly, she began backing to the desk and the phone sitting on its base.
She was thinking if she could get it and run. He noticed her movement and spied the phone. He was quick and grabbed her before she could move.
"No, my dear. We are going to find out if you really are a virgin. Me and the guys have a bet. I get to be the one to find out.", his mouth slammed onto hers.
Kristen fought back, her teeth clamping down on his lip and her spiked heel was driven into his foot.
Instantly he let her go and then back handed her, splitting her lip and sending her sprawling over the desk. He flipped her onto her back and grabbed her hands in one of his.
"As I was saying bitch, we are going to find out the state of your virginity.", he ground out.
Kristen looked him in the eye, then with all her might slammed her forehead into the bridge of his nose. The blow made her a bit dizzy, but she shook it off.
She looked to see that his nose was bleeding quite a bit, and knew that she had to get away from him, before he retaliated. Using her hands like claws, she gouged at his eyes and face. Making him back off a little.
She was worming her body out form under his, attempting to get out of his reach. She felt another ringing slap, and her upper arms were grabbed. He slammed her against the wall, "You will pay for this bitch."
Kristen's mouth began to move, but no sound came out. "It was HIM. Oh my GOD.",she thought as terror caused a shudder to quake through her body, as she watched him appear out of her computer monitor's screen, and turn to her.
Tom looked down at her to see her white face, eyes filled with terror, staring at a spot right over his left shoulder. He turned to see Sesshomaru, eyes streaking red, fangs showing and claws ready. He dropped Kristen and ran from the house, leaving his coat behind and screaming about a monster.
Sesshomaru looked back at her, his eyes returning to their normal golden. "Are you unharmed?", he asked her. He could feel her terror, but it was unavoidable. He couldn't stand there and let her be hurt.
She looked at him, her mouth still working. She raised her hand and touched him, as if she had to verify that he was real, then crumpled to a heap at his feet.
He sighed and bent to pick her up. He carried her to the couch and lay her down, noticing her lip and the bruising on the side of her face.
He went into the kitchen and saw a towel hanging on a rack and grabbed it. Then, he began looking for their water supply, growling when he couldn't find it. He opened the door and broke off and icicle hanging there. Carefully, he broke it up, wrapping it and carrying in to her.
He sat down beside her and lay the towel on her lip. He caressed her face with his other hand and marveled at how soft she seemed.
She was just coming around when he heard the other woman's voice, "Terry, I don't know what happened. Let's go see."
Camille was terrified for Kristen. Tom had stopped them a block away, his face a mess of scratches and nose bloody. Telling them there was a monster in the house and it had red eyes, fangs and claws.
He looked at the computer, but his picture was gone! Using his speed he ran to her room, and closed the door.
Camille found Kristen on the couch, the mess in the room and screamed. She ran to her side, "Kristen, honey, Kristen wake up. Oh God, Terry what did he do to her?" Camille began patting her face and rubbing her hands.
Kristen opened her eyes and found Camille's worried face. "What happened, sweetie?", Camille demanded.
Kristen sat up, and grabbed her head. "Your FRIEND attacked me. He tried to rape me.", she spat at Terry. She burst into tears and threw herself into Camille's arms.
Terry's face showed rage, "I'm calling the police."
"NO", Kristen burst out. The couple both gave her odd looks. "Please, I don't want to explain how stupid I was by bringing him home in the first place. Just tell him to stay away from me and to keep his mouth shut or I will have him arrested.", her eyes pleading with them.
"What's all this that he was saying about a monster?", Camille asked.
Kristen played it off, refusing to believe what she saw. "Maybe he meant me. I did try to rip his eyes out.", she said.
"You did?", Camille asked.
"Those self defense courses came in pretty handy. I did everything they taught me.", she answered.
Camille took her chin in her hand and gave her a critical look. There was a livid bruise on her left cheek and her lower lip was split and swollen. "Are you ok? I mean you were out of it when we came in. Maybe you should go to the hospital.", she asked her.
"I was a bit dizzy from head butting him. I feel fine now, look I even got my own ice.", Kristen answered. Briefly, she wondered how she ended up on the couch, with ice on her face.
"Are you sure? You look like you have been pretty beat up.", Camille voiced her concern.
"It looks worse than it feels. I just want to get out of these clothes, clean up and go to bed.", Kristen stood up, fighting down the wave of dizziness that threatened to over take her. There was no way she was telling those two what she thought she saw. They would rush her to the hospital and put her in a psychiatric ward.
She stopped at the bottom of the stairs, slipping her heels off, before continuing up toward the bathroom. Quickly, she undressed and stepped into the shower. Wanting to wash away his touch, and wishing she could wash away the memory.
She felt some what better after the shower. "Now just some rest, and I'll be fine.", she thought, slipping on her robe and putting her silk top to soak in cold water, hoping the blood came out.
She didn't bother with the light as she walked in and closed the door. Suddenly, she felt hands on her. One around her waist, pulling her against a wall of muscle. The other, gently covering her mouth.
"Shh. I swear I won't hurt you. Just don't scream.", he whispered in her ear.
Kristen could feel his breath on her ear, and his gentle touch. He felt her relax, then nod her head, and he released her.
"Thank you, if you wouldn't have come out........", she trailed off, her eyes growing wide. "How did you come here and who are you?", she asked him.
"My name is Sesshomaru, and I am the Inutaiyoukai of the Western Lands. I was called to a small village to help with a strange occurrence in a cave close by. Much to my surprise I find what looks like a painting of myself, through it I could see you and inside your home. When I became curious and touched the painting I was pulled through and landed here.", he explained.
"Tell me how did you come to possess a painting of this Sesshomaru? What kind of magic is this?", he demanded.
