Kagome was in her mother's room as she turned on the television. She took her seat next to her mother and picked up her hand. It seemed like her mother was getting worse.

 

“Well mom, the news is on. Lets see what the current events are kay.”

 

Souta was up in the room sitting in a chair near the window. However, when Kagome came in she didn't notice him.

 

“Uh sis, would you like me to leave?”

 

“Oh Souta, I didn't know you were in here. No please stay, maybe if she knows that we're both here she'll wake up.”

 

Souta smiled sadly and continued to read some papers he was working on. He was now a lawyer and was top in his firm. He had some important cases that he needed to review, but on the weekends he would come to the shrine to spend some time with his mother.

 

Kagome picked up her mother's hand and with the remote control she turned up the volume. The screen changed and Hotaru sat there looking at the screen in surprised horror.

 

“Tenchi, it seems that the boy who jumped off of Tokyo Tower yesterday had indeed commit suicide, however, the police think that he was coerced. It seems that this boy Watanabi Kentaru who went to the high school here was dating a young girl and students here believe that she had bewitched him.”

 

The camera than adjusted to fit some girls onto its screen.

 

“So tell me, what do you believe happened?”

 

One girl with choppy reddish blonde hair who was chewing bubble began to talk.

 

“Well, Ken was like falsely dating this girl named Hotaru right but she's a witch, I mean like really no one talks to her so like…it was weird when Ken started to like date her, but it turned out that he was dared…well she used this like freaky magic that like rippled the ground right and like this weird purple light like hit him and his real girlfriend.”

 

“Did I hear you correctly, you said a light?”

 

Then another girl who popped a bubble and waved her hand with a pink demon doll in it spoke up while another girl behind her was waving at the camera smiling and giving out hand gestures that signaled love and peace.

 

“Yeah, I mean we all saw it, it was right over there,”

 

She pointed to the cherry blossom tree.

 

“She was on the ground and Fuu who's like one of the elite here in school well she pushed that girl on the ground and said something to her the next thing we knew was this purple energy kind of light well, it came out her hands and her hair began to fly. I saw the light like lightening running on the ground and I ran.”

 

The newscaster Minako looked back at the camera and smiled.

 

“Well Tenchi, it seems like we're going to be going on a witch hunt.”

 

“It sure seems that way to me Minako. Do the police buy this story that the girls are giving?”

 

“Well apparently Tenchi, everyone here at the school say that they witnessed or know of someone who witnessed this strange phenomenon. The police are looking into this and trying to decipher whether it's a urban legend or if there is some kind of truth to this story.”

 

“Minako, is it true that this girl is from the Higurashi Shrine?”

 

“As a matter of fact Tenchi she is and both of her parents are of spiritual background. The father is a Buddhist monk and her mother a priestess whose grandfather was the priest there before he died. The mother Higurashi Kagome came from a line of strong priest and priestesses, in fact, according to the data I've collected her family history indicates that she is a distant relative of Kikyo a powerful priestess of her day.”

 

“Wow, well maybe it's true, maybe this girl did pass on a curse to this ex boyfriend of hers.”

 

Kagome turned off the television and with a shaky hand she whispered to her mother after looking at her little brother and noticing that he was intently looking over his paper work.

 

“Mama, they were talking about Hotaru, oh if only you were awake you know exactly what to say to make me feel better.”

 

Kagome smoothed back the curls from her mothers' face and noticed that the woman was a little chill, so she brought the blankets up and kissed her mother lightly on the head.

 

“Mama, come back please…hurry we need you, I need you.”

 

She went over to her brother and lightly tapped his shoulder. He looked at his watch and nodded over at her. He gathered his things and they both silently left the room as Kagome turned out the lights.

----------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------

 

Inuyasha glared at the snow falling down in torrents. He walked out of the cave and tried to see if he could see anything using his youkai sight. Unfortunately, all he saw was a lot of snow and nothing else.

 

`Damn, another night here in the cave…with her.'

 

He turned around while the wind howled in his ears and his hair flew madly about him before he entered the cave's mouth. He sat at the edge of the cliff where Hotaru wouldn't notice him and watched the girl bathe in the water. He felt his lust for her tenting in his pants as he watched her smooth body glide under the lighted green water. She headed towards the hot water falling from the rock. Her head crested the water and her long black hair was slicked down her back showing him the slope of her heart shaped face and her elegant neck and full uplifted bosom, the soft curves of her feminine form. She was the epitomy of female beauty.

 

He closed his eyes and breathed in deep while his hand with a mind of its own sought to comfort his appendage. He opened his eyes and glared angrily at the young woman.

 

`How dare she make me, me Inuyasha succumb to something so juvenile.'

 

He really had to take care of the need between his legs and this made him even angrier. He continued to watch her play and swim in the water while he touched his swollen head softly, imagining her tiny little human hands wrapped around it. He imagined seeing her face full of passion and want of him. He bit his lip so hard when he came that his blood began to trickle down. He licked his lips as he pulled his hands from beneath his pants. Looking at his soiled hand he became angry again at Hotaru for making him succumb to such a thing.

 

`Damn it all to hell, I hadn't done that in years. If Sesshomaru were here he'd make some damn snide remark about being a damn pup to piss me off.'

 

He looked down at her from his invisible spot and noticed that Hotaru was acting strange. She was in the water and he could hear her breathing rapidly as a light lavender aura floated off her body, smelling the air he smelt her arousal. His ears twitched as it felt the sensitive aura around him, his aura meshing with hers.

 

`What the hell is going on here?' I feel so…weak all of a sudden, like I've been drained of some of my aura.'

 

He got up and walked back to the mouth of the cave and looked out into the snow. He was deeply troubled and he needed to think about what happened.

 

`Alright I freakin masturbated but, does she know I did, did she feel me? Her aura and that smell, she orgasmed about the same time I did. I need to think…'

 

He sat there for awhile thinking about everything he knows about sex, and for the most part it just consisted of two or more people entering one another bodies for pleasure, some take a mate and do it to procreate, and some do it because they believe that they are in love, but no one said anything about aura's floating down to the other person while masturbating and vice versa.

 

He stood up and headed back down to where they camped away from the cold. He looked down one more time and noticed that she was out of the pool. She was now sitting in front of the fire combing her hair with her fingers.

 

When Hotaru noticed his presence she became so embarrassed that when he walked past her she couldn't even bring her eyes up to meet his in greeting so instead she lay down making like she was to go to sleep.

 

She was afraid that he would know her shameful secret, but she thought about what she did and she didn't understand why all of a sudden she became hot in the water. It was strange; one moment she was enjoying her bath and then the next she felt a brush of something up against her, something that made her needy than as if sensing her thoughts she started to have this vision of her and her captor together in the most entangled of ways. While behind the falls she began to touch herself lightly between her legs. She closed her eyes and moaned softly while resting the back of her head against the smooth rock.

 

She felt her nether lips swell with blood and began to rub the ache out of it, but the more she rubbed the better it felt and the more the sensation and visions heightened. She remembered heat filling her entire cavity and she began to splash in the water. But it was whom she had seen in the back of her minds eye. The silver headed god that she was unfortunately in custody of.

 

`Why did I think about him touching me…there, Oh god I masturbated and what would he have thought if he saw me…I'm so shameless…wait…maybe that was what my body wanted to remind me of that I deserved what Ken did to me, I'm just like my father with his lustful habits…and now…Ken…he…he died because of my hidden desires. He died because I am like my father. She's right it's all my fault.'

 

Hotaru hugged herself, she was so confused, she didn't want to be like her father, she wanted to be a clean woman, but she thought how could she when it was obvious that her father was a lewd man from the start. She remembered admiring her budding body in the full mirror in her room imagining what the lucky man in her life would think of her now that she turned into a woman when her mother walked in.

 

~Flash Back~

 

“MOM!”

 

Hotaru screamed in embarrassment when her mother came into her room to drop off the clean laundry. Kagome blushed and put the basket down.

 

“Its ok honey, I've seen it all before. Look get dressed ok, it's time you and I had a talk.”

 

Hotaru groaned when her mother left the room and sat crossed legged on the floor.

 

`How embarrassing, my mother caught me touching myself. I didn't mean anything by it, it's just that…oh why won't this floor open up and swallow me?'

 

Hotaru took her time to get dressed hoping that her mother would take the hint and dropped the entire subject. However, that wasn't going to happen. Ten minutes later there was a light rap at the door.

 

“Hotaru…it's your mom.”

 

“Come in.” Hotaru grumbled sitting on the bed closing off her whole body.

 

“Don't be embarrassed dear, you're at an age where your body is changing, it's normal to uh…well you know. Sweetie, you're becoming a young woman now and well…your body is going to go through changes…see…”

 

“Mom, do we really need to talk about this? NOW?”

 

Kagome nodded her head in the affirmative. Hotaru groaned into her hands.

 

“Hotaru honey, I want for you to be a respectable girl and if we don't talk about this now…well…your going to become curious and well…bad things can happen to curious young women. Honey look at me.”

 

Hotaru followed her mother's caring order and faced her.

 

“Your father was notorious for bedding a naïve young maiden, he was a lecher of the worst kind, the biggest rake I've ever known. Well, you know the saying what goes around comes around right? Well your father is paranoid that the saying is going to come up and bite him in the butt.”

 

Kagome smiled with a little giggle to get her daughters nerves calm as well as her own.

 

“Well, I don't want that saying to come true either, that is why I must talk to you about your changing body.”

 

Kagome sat there and explained everything about sex to her, what body parts are called, what goes where and even untraditional sex acts such as anal, oral and exploration through masturbation. However, when they talked about self masturbation Kagome looked at her daughter.

 

“Now Hotaru, a respectable young lady wouldn't do such an act by herself, it would awaken things in the body that should be left alone. I know that in school they teach the opposite and that you should use protection, but, honey honestly the best way to keep clean is abstinence. If you refrain from anything sexual…well…when the right man comes along you will have something amazing to offer him. Tradition nowadays have gone out the window even here in Japan. We've met the western traditions and surpassed it. But, if you wait until your married sweetie, then you will have the perfect marriage…

 

Kagome looked out the window off to where the Goshinboku tree stood and in a haunting voice she spoke out.

 

“Men respect a traditional woman Hotaru, they never…forgive….and if you bed them before your married eventually they will lose their respect for you and if you make that mistake of sleeping with someone you cause shame on yourself, because when the right man loves you and finds that you are impure…he wont respect you, he won't cherish you. And you will fall from grace and eventually, you will pay for your impureness.”

 

To Hotaru's ears it sounded as if her mother spoke from experience. She wanted so badly to ask if her mother knew the traditional ways and if she failed to comply with it. But, something stayed her tongue.

 

“Mom? It's alright…I'm sorry…I didn't mean to act so shamefully.”

 

Kagome came out of her head and looked at her daughter.

 

“Just promise me that you'll wait for marriage, promise me that you won't succumb to your body's carnal pleasures, I don't want for you to live my life sweetie, I want for you to be happy.”

 

“Mom, are you not happy? You and dad?”

 

Kagome smiled and reached into her pocket and pulled out her medicine vial. She popped a couple of pills and closed her eyes.

 

“Everything is fine dear, all marriages have complications, but, if you don't commit the sin, then your marriage will have less.”

 

~End Flash Back~

 

Hotaru understood now, she was impure and she would never find happiness. Being that she didn't heed her mother's warning and now she was used, tarnished, if she found a husband he would disrespect her. Maybe that was why her father cheated on her mother; somewhere her mother committed that sin and has to pay the consequences to those actions. Everywhere she turned it seemed it was her mothers fault. Her mothers fault for giving her this curse.

 

Hotaru came out of her thoughts when she felt water falling on her. She looked up to see where the water was coming from and that was when she saw him pure skin from head to toe, beautifully artistic hard masculine beauty. Immediately she imagined those iron banded arms keeping her safe and warm, she could visualize her hands stroking the broad tanned chest all the way down to his…Hotaru blushed crimson. Even though she was with Ken physically, she's never seen it actually it wasn't like Ken gave her the opportunity to explore his body, but this man or youkai whatever he was_ was standing in front of her with no qualms or embarrassment, no decency whatsoever he didn't even bother to cover himself up.

 

“Like what you see wench?”

 

Hotaru nearly shrieked out loud but instead she closed her eyes and shook her head no violently while blushing like a mad hatter.

 

“I'm sorry, I didn't mean…I just felt water and…I'm sorry.”

 

“Keh pass me my clean robes wench.”

 

Hotaru nearly choked.

 

“Wha…what, can't you walk over to it and get them yourself?!”

 

Inuyasha laughed darkly.

 

“I could, but, you'd get wet.”

 

“How can I get wet if you walk around?” She said still shutting her eyes tight.

 

“I don't want too, besides did you forget that your life lays within my hands, I suggest you start acting like I own you now.”

 

Infuriated now Hotaru snapped her eyes opened and stood up looking the youkai in his golden eyes.

 

“No one owns me you got that?”

 

Inuyasha lifted a dark brow.

 

“Oh, I think you don't understand, see, even if you are pardoned I don't have to let you go.”

 

“WHAT!”

 

“That's right so you do as I say when I say and be a good girl, well, if I don't have to kill you, you know for causing trouble in the youkai dimension, well, then I'll take you to the well myself, in fact, I'll take you all the way home.”

 

Hotaru shook her head a vein was popping in her forehead she could feel it.

 

“And what if I say no way in hell?”

 

Inuyasha walked up to her using his naked height to intimidate her. He smelt her spiked fear of him and he actually grinned showing all of his beautifully white teeth and fangs. He leaned down to the shell of her ear and when she didn't move his grin became darker and more sensual. His voice dropped an octave.

 

“You really have no choice here but the one I gave you Hotaru and you know it…your mine until I'm ready to let you go.”

 

He could feel her trembling now but her body didn't tremble with fear her aura flashed, he stepped back to look at her.

 

“Go get my robes Hotaru.”

 

She stood up and walked around the fire with her eyes lowered. She gathered the clothes that he wanted and walked back to him. She stretched out her arm to hand him the clothes.

 

“You know, I think I would like it if you dressed me.”

 

“Go to hell bastard.”

 

And Hotaru dropped the robes at his feet turned around and lay on her mat with her back facing him.

 

Inuyasha threw his silver head back and laughed. He hadn't had a laugh like that with any woman since Kikyo and he laughed some more as he put on his robes. Hotaru on the other hand didn't find anything so funny and spoke a mantra in her head to will herself to sleep.
