Bad Day:Chapter 5
Do Not Fear Me
Almost absentmindedly Kagome took the bus back to her stop and walked to her home. Her nose was buried in the book Shippou had given her. There were some illustrations of the gang and herself, as well as a few of Sesshoumaru, though they were altered or you could not see his face.
She giggled at some parts, feeling almost nostalgic. Some comments seemed totally in Sesshoumaru's character, like the one saying `Of course the hanyou was inferior to his older brother, a full blooded youkai'.
As she walked up the steps to her shrine and into the house, she noticed that Hojou was absent. Thankfully. She walked into the kitchen and grabbed a soda from the fridge and walked up to her room.
Never did it cross her mind that she should be studying for school, or that she had a major test tomorrow, or that she had school at all.
She was too engrossed in the `legends' of Inu Yasha and his group.
`The miko would repeatedly use her strange spell on the hanyou if he ever made her angry. There were many things that would anger her, and sometimes she was said to have made the comment that even though the hanyou was possibly seventy years of age(appearing only eighteen or nineteen) he acted like a nine year old pup. But it was also said she loved the hanyou, even though he loved another. `
Kagome sighed and wondered if she would ever get to a part of the book that told her something important,like how to defeat Naraku.
Suddenly she glanced at her clock and gasped.
It was two thirty five in the morning!
So much for school. She sighed and put the book aside on the table. She might as well just sleep in tomorrow and go see Shippou again. Maybe she'd even see Sesshoumaru.
Moonlight reflected in the rippling water, wavering slightly. It was a meadow bather in silver moonlight. Kagome watched as the wind pushed sweet smelling grasses from one side to the next.
“It is always the same dream miko. When will you stop tormenting me with visions of the past,” Sesshoumaru's voice asked.
Kagome turned and gasped.
In the past, he had been magnificent in a commanding way. In the present when she had seen him in his home, he had still seemed commanding, but in a quiet way that spoke of calm and respect and knowledge.
In this dream however, he was still commanding, but at the same time, he seemed so full of passion. Kagome tried to find what gave her the impression, and she found it in his eyes.
His amber eyes were filled with tormented emotions.
“I'm not trying to torment you,” She whispered.
“It is the first time you have spoken in so many centuries. Kagome, why do you continue coming to my dreams, ever since Naraku?” Sesshoumaru asked to know.
“I haven't-“
“YES YOU HAVE! Ever since you disappeared you have come to my dreams and reminded me of everything I wish to forget! Why can't you just leave me alone!?” Sesshoumaru bellowed.
Kagome shrank from him, scared of this side of him. It was a hot anger that showed in his eyes.
“I've, I've scared you. I'm sorry, Kagome,” He whispered. And slowly he began to fade from the dreamscape.
“Sesshoumaru, don't shut me out!” Kagome said right before he disappeared.
Kagome awoke from her dream, startled. It was almost eleven in the morning. Too late to go to school. She sighed and got out of bed. School meant no Hojou at least.
She wondered if Sesshoumaru really had been in her dream. How else could she have seen him in such a state?
Her thoughts continued on that same path,trying to figure out what was going on, as she quickly bathed and then dressed.
Once more she walked to the bus stop.
She boarded,only to see a different driver and the same group of punks from the day before.
`Please don't let there be any trouble,' Kagome thought to herself. She wasn't sure if the driver would help her out this time.
But the punks were suspiciously quiet the entire ride. Kagome disembarked and started on her way. She paid no attention to the punks that had gotten off the bus as she did. She was so deep in thought again that she didn't even notice.
After several minutes she heard the same one from the day before call out to her. Looking over her shoulder, she began to walk at a brisker pace, hoping to be left alone.
Several more catcalls and whistles as well as other bawdy displays came before she got to the entrance of the museum. By this time she was running as fast as she could, right through the gates and towards the main house.
She knew the punks had stopped following her, but her heart still raced at their threats and lewd comments.
“Kagome, what are you doing here?” Lin asked in a whisper, looking around fearfully.
“I came to see Shippou and Sesshoumaru,is something wrong?” Kagome asked.
A crash resounded throughout the home,as well as the sound of snarling. Kagome knew Shippou would never do that.
Her thoughts were confirmed when she heard Shippou's voice trying to cautiously soothe an angry Inu Youkai. With no success.
Kagome left the frightened Lin and ran towards the sound. She found a broken door and a room is complete disarray.
“Sesshoumaru?” Kagome questioned weakly.
He looked more angry and insane than Inu Yasha when he had become a full demon. Amber eyes were gone, replaced by an angry crimson, and Kagome saw that fangs were growing larger.
Sesshoumaru was on the verge of changing into his youkai form.
“Kagome get the hell out of here!” Shippou demanded, yelling over the snarling.
“Woman, what are you doing here?” Sesshoumaru demanded. He didn't give Kagome a chance to respond. “Why are you tormenting me? Why do you remind me of things I will never have again?” The youkai demanded.
Kagome shivered at the anguish in the words, and the sense of déjà vu they gave her.
“Sesshoumaru,please,” Shippou whispered.
“Out Kitsune,OUT!” Sesshoumaru bellowed. Shippou looked at Kagome, who nodded her head, and fled the room as quickly as he could.
“Sesshoumaru, why are you doing this?” Kagome asked softly.
“Because you dangle in front of me and I cannot have you,” He shouted.
“Why not?” Kagome asked, ignoring the fact that he wanted her. She'd deal with that later. Right now she needed to calm him down before he changed into his true form inside the house and destroyed the entire structure.
“You are HUMAN!”
“So? If you want me enough, you will be able to see past the fact that I'm human. You cannot be so disgusted with me being a human if you want me so badly,” Kagome told him.
“I'm not disgusted! I don't want to lose you!” He told her in a mix of a snarl and a groan.
“Oh,” Kagome said. She mulled over the fact for a minute before she walked up to the enraged taiyoukai and put a shaking hand on his cheek, fearing he would bite it off.
“You're shaking,” He said simply as his eyes began to calm and clear.
“Yes,” Kagome admitted.
“Do not fear me Kagome,” He whispered as he pulled her into a tight embrace. “You did not fear me in the age of wars, do not fear me now.”
Kagome stood like that with him, wrapped in his tight embrace for several minutes before he pulled away from her.
“Kagome, there is a reason you must not come here every day. We are here only because of the outcome of the last battle. You must keep going back and finding shards, and eventually battle Naraku, or else Shippou and I will fade from here, and history will shift itself. And the shift would drive you mad,” Sesshoumaru finished.
“I see,” Kagome told him simply. “Then I will come when I am home from the feudal era. You will not be rid of me Sesshoumaru. You didn't come find me, but I found you. “
“I know. Kagome, you must go back tomorrow. Take up home school or something of the sort, but you must get this done quickly,” He told her. Kagome nodded and came into his embrace without resistance.
Shippou looked at them both without being noticed. He saw everything in Sesshoumaru's expression.
He didn't know if he would be allowed to explain to Kagome what had happened between her and Sesshoumaru so many years ago without angering the Fates, but he knew that it might be the only way she would ever understand how the youkai had become so emotional.
A few minutes later Kagome was walking away from the shrine, thoroughly confused. She walked down the path, aware the Sesshoumaru had watched her, then left.
Why had he acted like that? How had he become so…Emotional?
It wasn't at all like the youkai she knew to be an emotional wreck.
Did it have something to do with the past?
Kagome sighed and continued questioning life as she knew it, and as she passed the gates, she walked through the park.
Only to hear someone laugh in a very evil manner that spoke of nothing but trouble for her.
“Hey girl, wanna have a good time?” A familiar voice asked.
