CHAPTER FIVE!!!
Later that afternoon around the camp fire....
"Not to shabby, we actually made some real time today." stated an impressed Inuyasha.
"Yeah we did, didn't we?" agreed Kagome.
"Sure did!" added Sango.
"Yes we did indeed." added Miroku.
I looked over at Koga.
"Koga where and the others and the wolves?" I asked.
"Don't worry Cat. They will be here soon." he replied.
Ginta and Hakaku choose that very moment to show up.
"It's about time you slow pokes got here." said Koga.
All of a sudden there was a wierd feel to the air.
Inuyasha sighed.
"Great just what we didn't need." grumbled Inuyasha.
"What's the matter little brother? Are you not happy to see me? asked Sesshomaru.
Inuyasha got prepared to draw his sword, and Koga got up and stood slightly in front of me.
"What brings you here anyways?" Koga asked.
"I have come to see if what I heard is true." replied Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru looked around and looked at me.
"How interesting! Inuyasha I see you have a new compainion in your group...Might she be the girl I heard of who can sense animals and has very unique healing powers?" said Sesshomaru.
"What if I am, what's it to you?" I asked while moving so Koga no longer was in front of but instead was beside me.
"Watch your tounge wench!!" stated Sesshomaru.
"And if I don't?" I asked getting a lil irritated.
Sesshomaru looked at Inuyasha..."I see she has guts this one...very admirable!!!" stated Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru stared right at me.
"However woman, you would do wise to hold your tounge around me. This Sesshomaru has very little patience with that sort of thing." he stated.
"So what did you want anyways Sesshomaru?" asked Inuyasha.
"Woman, are you the one they speak of?" repeated Sesshomaru.
"I have a name you know! It is Cat, try using it. Then I will answer your questions." I answered.
Sesshomaru sighed.
"Very well then Cat. Are you the one they speak of?" he asked.
"Yes, I am able to sense the animals, and have very unique healing abilities. Why do you ask?" I replied.
Sesshomau tilted his head.
"Jaken, bring the girl forward." Sesshomaru stated.
"Very well me lord." replied Jaken.
He proceeded to bring a young child forward and we all gasped.
"Tell me good sir, what is her name, and what exactly happened to her?" I asked moving towards the girl.
"Explain Jaken!" ordered Sesshomaru.
"Yes me lord...very well her name is Rin, and she was eating some strange berries she found ealier and a few hours later she was ill she has not woken since." said Jaken.
"How long ago was this and can you describe what she ate and how she reacted?" I asked while looking over the girls face.
"This afternoon and she just broke out like this, started running around screaming it burns, and fell asleep." answered Jaken.
I raised a brow at the toad and said "And?"
"She ate these." replied Jaken.
Then he proceeded to hand me the berries.
"Has she ever eaten these before?" I asked.
I looked the berries over thoroughly.
"NO, this was the first time." he answered.
I walked over to where my bag was, picked it up and carried it over to the edge of the campsite.
"I see bring her over to me please." I said.
Sesshomaru carried the girl to me, I got into my pack and mixed some herbs together then spread them on the girls face.
Then I looked at Sesshomaru.
"She should be fine as soon as the berries work themselves out of her body. Untill then this mixture will sooth her rash. However in the future do not allow her these berries again. It would appear she is having an allergic reaction to them, while they are not poisioness, she should avoid them from now on. Am I clear?" I said.
Sesshomaru stared into my eyes.
"Very well, I thank you for your help woman." he said.
I sighed and shook my head.
"I told you, I have a name." I replied.
Sesshomaru looked over at me and smiled.
"Very well, Thank you Cat." Sesshomaru said.
I smiled.
"Your welcome Sir." I replied.
Sesshomaru picked up the girl and starte to walk off.
I reached out and lightly grabbed his arm.
He turned around and stared at me.
I dropped my hand.
"Please be sure to bring her back in the morning after she wakes so I can be certain she wont have any furthur reactions." I asked.
I turned around, picked up my bag and started heading back to camp.
Sesshomaru noded his head then took the girl and Jaken and they dissapeared.
Koga's POV
I stood there frowning and thinking "Now what the hell did she have to touch him for anyways?"
Regular POV
When I got back to camp, Everyone else just stood there flabbergasted.
"What? Have I done something wrong?" I asked.
"NO, it's just...he is usually never that well....behaved...." replied Kagome.
"What is with everyone anyways?" I asked.
"He is a full demon. He and Inuyasha had the same father." said Kagome.
"Oh...Okay." I said.
Then I walked back over to where I had first been standing before Sesshomaru arrived, and I sat back down.
"Teh!" scoffed Inuyasha.
Then he walked off to sit by the fire.
"Very interesting indeed." said Miroku.
"Yeah, Not many people can get that much ummm niceness out of Sesshomaru." agreed Sango.
Koga stood in front of me with a perplexed look on his face.
"I gotta tell you Cat, you have more guts then I first thought." he said.
Then he grabbed my hands and pulled me up in front of him.
Then he put his arm around my waist, pulled me to him and looked me right in the face.
"I am gonna make you my woman!" he announced.
" Wolves mate for life. So you are mine now! Got that!?" he demanded.
I smacked his face hard enough for him to let me go.
"I don't belong to anybody! Get your hands off me! I am not a piece of property! You can't just claim me like that ya know!" I said angrily.
Then I looked around the entire camp and said "Everybody better damn well remember that too! Understood!"
Then I stormed off thinking to myself "Just who the hell does this guy think he is anyways!?! Man why do the ones I like always have to end up being the jerks!?!"
I sat down by Kagome.
Koga's POV
I stood there holding my stining cheek remembering when Kagome did the same thing, and thinking it must run in the family!
Then I smiled to myself shaking my head and sat down alone.
Regular POV
Kagome was sitting there smiling to herself and when I asked why she told me about how Koga kidnpped her and all that happened then.
Then I said " Well I am just as fiesty as you are Kags."
She replied " Oh come on Cat, we both know darn well you are a LOT fiestier than I am!"
We both smiled and I said "You're right Kags, I am."
We both grinned shaking our heads.
Koga got up and walked off to tend his wolves.
Inuyasha came over, sat beside Kagome, looked at me and said "You got very lucky tonight!"
"Why do you say that?" I asked.
"Because Sesshomaru didn't try to kill you." he replied.
"Why would he want to do that?" I asked.
"Because he usaully demands respect and obidience from EVERYONE around him." He stated.
"He really acted out of character tonight" added Kagome.
"Yeah it was like he was actualy trying to behave himself for once...I wonder why?" said Inuyasha.
"So watch yourself around him becuase I doubt he will ever be that patient with you or anyone else again!" warned Inuyasha.
"Okay I will and thanks for the warning." I replied.
Then I stood up.
"I am gonna go for a short walk." I announced.
"Cat, you really shouldn't..." started Kagome but I cut her off. "Don't worry Kags I promise I won't go to far I just need to clear my head a bit ok." I said.
Kagome sighed.
"Well ok I guess, but please be careful Cat!" she said.
"You know I always am." I replid.
Then I smiled and walked off.
After I walked off a lil ways I saw Koga, Ginta, and Hakaku busy taking care of the wolves.
"Hi guys. I am just going for a short walk. See ya." I said walking by.
"Hold up! I will come with you. That is if you don't mind of course." said Koga while walking to catch up with me.
I sighed heavily.
"Koga if your gonna act like earlier..." I started warning but he cut me off " About that" he said
"I kinda acted like a jerk and I'm sorry. I promise to behave. Friends again?" he said.
"Fine." I agreed.
So Koga and I walked off and walk quietly for a bit.
"I enjoy walking. It really helps me clear my head sometimes." I said.
"I know what you mean. That is why I enjoy running so much. It's just so freeing." he stated.
"That what being in nature is in general for me." I replied.
When we came across a nice little hill we decided to just sit and stare at the stars a while.
"Hey Cat." he said.
"Hmm?" I replied.
"Can I ask you something?" he asked.
"Sure, what?" I replied.
"Well earlier this morning when we were talking, What did you mean by "it's been my lot in life"?" he asked.
I sighed heavily
"Well it's kinda complicated." I said.
"If you don't want to talk about it that's ok. I will...." he started but I cut him off. "No, it's ok. I just don't really know where to start. That's all." I said.
"How about the begning?" he suggested.
"How long you got to listen?" I replied.
"All night if needed." he answered.
"Okay. Well to sum it up my parents never wanted me to begin with, so I pretty much grew up just feeling like a burden to my parents, I am an only child, and I have pretty much been on my own since about 5 years ago. My parents had a friend over to the house for dinner one night...and... he raped me.....I told my parents the next day and they pretty much disowned me over it.....I didn't even do anything wrong.....he just attacked me in my room that night and my parents were drunk that night...After my parents disowned me, I had no need to stay there anymore so I just ran away...I only recently found out my parents died in a car crash a week after what happened....and my EX-fiance, when I told him all that had happened, well he back handed me, hard enough I hit the ground...then started yelling obsciniteies at me and, hitting me more, and he said I got what I deserved! I ran back to my place, bolted the door and started packing that night."
Koga's POV
I growled and thought angrily "If I ever get my hands on that lousy son oa a bitch I will...!"
Regular POV
"Needless to say, the next day, I broke off the engagemnt with him and ran off to Kagome's mom's house. None of them knew anything about any of it, untill I told Kagome's mom and Gramps, and asked if I could stay with them awhile. Kagome's mom said yes, and I have been staying there ever since...at least I was untill I fell in the well." I answered.
He reached over, put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me into a hug.
I sat there stunned looking at him.
He stared right into my eyes.
"Is this okay?" he asked.
"Or am I upsetting you? If I am I will stop" he aded.
"It's okay" I replied.
"Just unexpected that's all! To be honest other than Kagome, I really am not used to people showing me concern and kindness.." I finished.
Then I sorta burried my head against his shoulder.
"I am so sorry for everything you have been thru! It must have been terrible for you! Now I understand why you seem so distant sometimes and why your always going off alone to think." he said.
"Thanks." I replied.
Then we just sat like that for a while in silence.
Then he pulled my head up and looked me in the eyes.
"Cat?" he said.
"Yeah?" I asked.
"I won't let anything else happen to you! NO ONE will hurt you while I am around! And that 's a promise!" he stated.
"Thanks Koga" I said.
Then I stood up.
"You gonna be okay Cat?" he asked me.
"I always am..." I replied.
Then I looked away again.
Koga just looked at me as I stared off into space again.
A few minutes later.....
"Well I guess we better head back now. The others are probably getting worried by now. Oh and Koga..." I said.
"Yeah?" he replied.
"Thanks for the talk and all, but please don't tell ANY of the others ok! Kagome dosen't know I was raped years ago, and I would rather keep it that way if it's all the same to you. She is like a sister to me and all but I don't want her to know just yet." I answered.
"Sure. Don't worry I won't tell anyone else." he said.
"Thanks." I said.
"However I am glad you decided to tell me." he said.
"Me too. It actually made me feel a little better to talk to someone about it after all this time..." I replied.
"Anytime you need to talk, about ANYTHING, I'm here. Always remember that Cat!" he said.
"Okay Koga, and thanks your a good friend." I said.
Then we started walking back to camp.
Koga beded down with his wolves and I kept walking to camp.
When I arrived at the camp Kagome ran up to me.
"Cat! There you are. I was starting to get worried." Kagome said.
"Sorry Kags. I didn't mean to worry you. I just needed to clear my head ya know?" I said and pulled her into a hug.
Kagome sighed.
"Alright just next time take someone with you so we don't all worry ok." she said.
"Sure Kags." I replied.
We hugged each other, then everyone beded down for the night.
