Kagome looked at the impassible face of the demon Lord as if a second head just popped out.
« W-what ?! » She said in a squeal.
«one solution could be useful in this kind of situation. You have to…»
«is no way in Hell that I suck the poison out» She interrupted him by screamed in disgust, shaking her head profusely and stucking her tongue out to show even more her repulsion at just the idea of this course of action.
Sesshomaru slightly narrowed his eyes making her froze in her display. At the hard look the demon Lord was sending her way, Kagome knew that she had say something stupid…again. But hey, when there is someone bitten by a snake and such, they always said that you had to suck the poison out with your mouth. She was not crazy, there are proofs of what she had tell err screamed at him. A lot of them They always do that… in movies. Ok, maybe not the better references.
She looked at him sheepishly and cleared her throat. «What were you saying that I had to do»
« Use your powers. » He repeated flatly, his eyes further narrowed because she made him repeat himself which he really don’t like. His injuries were really hurting, almost unbearable, so something had to be done now, or it could be too late, and here she was babbling about non sense.
At first, Kagome was a little embarrassed, then shocked and finally she was literally panicking. No, not even panic was the right word at what she was feeling. She watched Sesshomaru backward more closer to the wall behind him for support and with a lot of difficulties and pain, moved his hand towards his chest. He hissed in pain. He couldn’t hide the pain at all anymore. It was just too much, even for the demon Lord. He was dieing and he knew it. His only chance, as much as it disgusted him to admit it, was the woman, human, in front of him, InuYasha’s wench. He closed his eyes tight, breathing was more and more difficult. Oh how the mighty had fallen, he though with dry humor. He was even half tempted to let it all go but his vengeance and pride wouldn’t let him do. He would make them pay, even if he had to accept the help of a human, and even if it was the last thing he did.
« It’s the only solution… It’s a task really simple, even for a human like you. »
The young Miko didn’t even note down the insult, she was far too gone for that. « I can’t do that. What if I purify you ? (at that he snarled. How could she implied that someone insignificant like her could kill him) … Or,or…I need control to do healing, and I don’t have control AT ALL !!!! I could make thing worst ! And I-I am sure that this kind of things work with powerful and trained miko. I’m just an amateur with nothing that powerful in me » She was breathing hard.
He opened his eyes and looked at the pitiful spectacle playing in front of him. He was slightly shocked that she would be so distress at the idea to hurt him. Strange thing to see. This Miko was really abnormal. However, he didn’t have time to dowel into this.
« If you don’t do something, this Sesshomaru w-will… So stop… c-complaining. » Then he did something really surprising, even for himself but desperate situation ask for desperate actions. « Y-you have hi-hight level of raw powers untouched in you…Y-you have more than re.. required to f-fullfil this task. » He, how much he could and never did in his life, sort of comfort her. She had to get a grip at herself and her emotions, or he was lost.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she blinked furiously to not let them fall. She felt strangely boosted by his words. So, Kagome took a deep inspiration, and she spoke. « What have I to do ? » A light of determination burning in the depth of her brown eyes. She will save him. She could really save him, even the demon Lord said so himself and she never saw him lie once.
With still some difficulties to speak, Sesshomaru tried to explain to her how she should do. But he warned her first that he was youkai so he knew how youkai whom had the ability to heal used their powers but not the miko way. At that, some of the confidence that Kagome had won by her determination to help him, faltered a little. He told her then that if it wasn’t working with miko powers the same way, it will just not work. That calmed her back to a tolerable level of emotions. How a single being could hold so much feelings was really puzzling. Humans were really weak when dealing with feelings and intense emotions. They just snapped. It was one of their many weaknesses. So, how come she was able to have so many at once and still stay mentally ‘sane’ ? Maybe that was that, she wasn’t. She couldn’t be seeing at since how long she stood by his half-brother side, willingly.
He instructed her to close her eyes and concentrate. He told her to imagine the blood which was currently flowing in his veins. Then when she could see it behind her eyelids, if she was able to see the poison which was polluting it. At that point she stopped him, and asked a pertinent question that shocked him in the way that it was really thoughtful. How could she make the difference between the poison that was naturally coursing in his veins and the other one ? After some reflections, he answered that if she couldn’t see a difference she just had to destroy all. When healed, his body will produce anew of his personal poison.
When she can visualize in her mind, his blood polluted by poison, he said that she was ready. He instructed her that she had to want to heal him, really want to or her powers will ‘though’ that she wanted to destroy him. He said that in her mind, she had to be able to visualize her Miko powers in her. That she had to shift them slightly, and she would see the difference between her powers to destroy and the ones to heal. Her miko powers in her case were a light pink. When she will be able to change the color, she will know that she’d shift them. This power will work exactly like the first one, but it will not cause him any harm. Only powerful Mikos are able to shift their powers like that.
Kagome had a lot of difficulties with what he was asking her but her vow to heal him was so great that it was as if her body was able to do it by itself. Slowly, her aura shift from a light pink to a deep purple. When she succeeded, she felt drained. She didn’t do anything still, and she was already so tired. Even so, she will not stop.
Since she’d succeeded in her mind, it was time to do it for real. Sesshomaru could tell that she was frightened. Against all his believes, he tried more or less to assure her that she could do it. Time was running short, he could feel it. The poison was gaining more and more power and soon his body will give up. More and more poison was running in his veins at the point that now he had to force with all his might to oblige his body to continue to inspire the much needed air and his heart to continue to beat.
Kagome hesitated a second but nodded. She placed her left hand on the gach on his arm and the right hand on his torso. Sesshomaru winced when her hands made contact with his lacerated skin but didn’t pull away. She closed her eyes and concentrated, a deep purple light warped up around their form. When his youki flared but not attacked her aura, he knew that she had it.
After a few long minutes, the light died down. The young Miko locked her gaze with the unreadable amber eyes of the demon Lord of the West. She whispered two words, smile tiredly to him and fainted. « I succeed. »
He caught her before her unconscious form touch the floor. As he could, he deposed her against the wall beside him.
He looked down to examine his injuries. The poison had been purified off his system : now, he will be able to heal completely. Hm. He turned slightly to look at the woman who probably just saved his life. Such a strange human. He was disgusted to have to rely on her, but it was the only way and the fastest.
He leaned back against the wall, still looking at her unconscious form. Vaguely, he was pondering how she had come to be in there. Furthermore, where was his stupid half-brother in this story ? Hm. It was really a stung at his pride to have been captured and reduced to ask help from a Miko. Not that he had the necessity to ask since she proposed. Then, she, making a promise to him of silence came back in his mind. Humans weren’t truthful creatures, one of their many faults. So he couldn’t take her words for granted. However, somewhere in the back of his mind, he was sure that she will keep her promise. Yes, he will not count on it, but he knew that she will keep her word.
He closed his eyes. He was literally drained, and some sleep will assist to heal faster.

Hours later, they were awakened by a loud sound. A few seconds after, Sesshomaru found himself pined against the wall by the things around his neck and biceps. Kagome, startled, looked up with wide shocked eyes. Then, the door opened violently. A youkai entered and throw a tray of food. He looked a second at the two people inside the cell and laughed saying that someone will be there shortly to ‘visit’ them.
Not a minute later, the door opened again…
« KuKuKu… » Resounded against the wall.
Even still pinned on the wall, Sesshomaru growled viciously.
This voice, it could be only one person. « Naraku ! » Kagome yelled, jumping on her feet, but swaying a bit for the sudden movement, her body still weak.
The hanyou smile darkly. « Ah Kagome, my little Miko, How are you on this beautiful day ? »
A sound surprisingly closed to a growl come out of Kagome throat, when walking towards the middle of the cell. « What do you want, Naraku ? »
« Oh ? Not even a good morning ? I’m hurt, deeply. KuKuKu. » In a blink of the eye, he was just in front of her. « You know, my little Miko » Tracing the contour of her jaw with a finger. She didn’t give him the satisfaction to flinch at his touch, so she stayed put and glared at him. A smirk grew on his face. « You are a feisty one. That’s one of the thing I like in you. And I can say that I’m impressed. I had though that one of my demon would be enough to capture you. I’m really glad that I put three of them. Luck was on my side that one could slip behind you when you were killing the two others. Tsk tsk tsk, you made him really angry.
And Lord Sesshomaru, I’m pleased that you could join our little Fiest. It was quite problematic to ‘convince’ you to join us. So much of my men… but how did you find my little gift for you ? I can see that my poison wear off by now since your senses are back.
Hm. I can say that the two of you were quite problematic for me, so I’m happy to see the two of you here. » He smiled again when he turned to face Kagome again, making her took a few steps back. « Without his little Miko, his angel guard, InuYasha will be easy to get when I will so choose to go after him. »
Anger was raging inside her veins. « Why am I really here ? » Her voice cold, sounding sickeningly like the demon Lord’s.
« No so much impertinence, you will know when it will please me, my dear lovely little Miko, I just came to welcome you as the good host I am, in what risk to be your last residence. » He looked dead in the Miko eyes. « Except if I can find better use. »
With that, he left.
A minute after the door’d been closed for the second and last time, the spell that seemed to pin the demon Lord against the cell wall, vanished, leaving Sesshomaru free but off balance.
« Sesshomaru ! » Kagome cried, almost running to his side, but she was stopped before reaching him by a growl.
« Are you ok ? » She asked softly, her voice full of concern.
But no answer, not even a glance, she sighed. Figures. So she ignored him and came closer to the wall. On it, as if it had been sealed in the wall, a rectangle in a different type of stone. Kagome touched it lightly with her fingers tips. « It’s strange. » Sesshomaru looked at her in the corner of his eyes, still displeased that she was so close. She turned to look at him a second, a troubled light in her eyes before continuing her observation. « I can feel the spell in it. It strangely feels like holy powers. » She looked back at him. « The stone are made with holy powers and the collar and your chains with youki. At their command, I don’t know how, those things act like magnet. »
Sesshomaru turned as he could to look at her more fully and raised an eyebrow in question. Kagome cocked her head to one side, confused, then it clicked. « Oh, sorry. Magnet is… well it is two pieces of… metal but charged with opposite forces. When they are near enough of one another, they are... attract to one another until they are…stick. »
The Lord of the West looked down at the little Miko suspiciously. From where did she learn that ? Would it be possible that she is educated ? No, even if she comes from somewhere else, females are rarely or close to never educated, and she didn’t seem nobility. Hm.
During his muses, Kagome had walked towards the tray they brough earlier and padded back at Sesshomaru side.
« They only gave for one person, apparently. Hope there isn’t poison in it. There is bread, I think this thing is bread and meat. Do you want some ? »
« This is human food, and it isn’t for this Sesshomaru. » He spat uncaring.
She huffed at his reply. « And ? » Hands on her hips. « Eating cooked meat will not kill you, you know ? There. » Giving him half of the meat. « We can share. You have to eat too, you know. »
He growled at her familiar way to talk to his person but hesitated to take the meat. It was another attack to his pride and honor. Fed by a human. Rin tried to do the same thing, but he didn’t touch anything. But now…He accepted. He had to eat. When he was attacked, he hadn’t had eaten for a few days and was going to hunt. Yes, he’d been about to go to hunt when he was so shamefully captured and ended up there.
Kagome smiled at him when he took it. « You want more ? » She asked sweetly.
« Eat the rest, Miko. »
She shook her shoulders. « Suit yourself. » And she ate.
« Do you want water ? » She asked suddenly when she saw that they had left a bowl on the tray. He growled at her but nodded. She smiled again. « Ok. »
She held him a bowl of water. « More ? » « Iie. » She nodded and went to take water for herself.
Sesshomaru was observing her. She could feel his piercing eyes on her like if she was some kind of laboratory mouse to study. She flushed at the intensity of his gaze. She cleared her throat. « Hm… ano, have you any idea why we are here ? I mean, if we… if you are a nuisance for his plan why keep you alive. Not that I mean he should kill you or anything. I… » She groaned pitifully, hitting her forehead. She was digging her own grave she so feel it. But she didn’t receive what she had expected. He just narrowed his eyes at her and continued to speak with his always so silky voice. « That concern you too. »
She looked at him and gave off a small sad smile. « I’m not stupid Sesshomaru. You are a threat for him, that sure. And InuYasha, Sango or Miroku can be a real opponent too but I… »
« You are truly stupid, onna. »
« Hey ! » She yelled, outraged.
But he ignored her outburst. « Were you or were you not the only one to succeed to almost kill him with your sacred arrow ? » Lifting an eye brow to prove his point.
« Yes, but… »
He shook his head, stubborn woman, he thought and leaned against the wall, closing his eyes. « Do not take by heart what my worthless whelp of brother keep saying to you. Even Naraku saw that the reason of his force and why he is still alive is because of you, Miko. »

End of the chapter 5.
First thing first, thank you Theresa for your ‘beta help’ and work again in this story. Thank you so much.
I’m so sorry to have taken so long to update guys. *puppy eyes* Please, don’t hate me
I wanted to add that some editing works will be done in this story during the next week, since some people had pointed out problems. If you saw some mistakes feel free to contact me in a PM or e-mail (my addressstefy66000@yahoo.fr) if you wish to show me my errors. I know that I can make a lot of them, english being a language I had studied only in high-school, so you can do it freely. I know that I have some difficulties to see my own mistakes most of the times. But I wish to do better. I don’t want people who speak fluent english, be angry or hate my works because I am far from having a perfect english. However, I’m realistic too. I just hope to do at least a passable job and not a horrible one;)
Well, I have nothing more to say so, all of you guys,
Take care
Sweetest Angel

At their command, I don’t know how, those things act like magnet. »
Sesshomaru turned as he could to look at her more fully and raised an eyebrow in question. Kagome cocked her head to one side, confused, then it clicked. « Oh, sorry. Magnet is… well it is two pieces of… metal but charged with opposite forces. When they are near enough of one another, they are... attract to one another until they are…stick. »
The Lord of the West looked down at the little Miko suspiciously. From where did she learn that ? Would it be possible that she is educated ? No, even if she comes from somewhere else, females are rarely or close to never educated, and she didn’t seem nobility. Hm.

Kagome smiled at him when he took it. « You want more ? » She asked sweetly.
« Eat the rest, Miko. »
She shook her shoulders. « Suit yourself. » And she ate.
« Do you want water ? » She asked suddenly when she saw that they had left a bowl on the tray. He growled at her but nodded. She smiled again. « Ok. »
She held him a bowl of water. « More ? » « Iie. » She nodded and went to take water for herself.
Sesshomaru was observing her. She could feel his piercing eyes on her like if she was some kind of laboratory mouse to study. She flushed at the intensity of his gaze. She cleared her throat. « Hm… ano, have you any idea why we are here ? I mean, if we… if you are a nuisance for his plan why keep you alive. Not that I mean he should kill you or anything. I… » She groaned pitifully, hitting her forehead. She was digging her own grave she so feel it. But she didn’t receive what she had expected. He just narrowed his eyes at her and continued to speak with his always so silky voice. « That concern you too. »
She looked at him and gave off a small sad smile. « I’m not stupid Sesshomaru. You are a threat for him, that sure. And InuYasha, Sango or Miroku can be a real opponent too but I… »
« You are truly stupid, onna. »
« Hey ! » She yelled, outraged.
But he ignored her outburst. « Were you or were you not the only one to succeed to almost kill him with your sacred arrow ? » Lifting an eye brow to prove his point.
« Yes, but… »
He shook his head, stubborn woman, he thought and leaned against the wall, closing his eyes. « Do not take by heart what my worthless whelp of brother keep saying to you. Even Naraku saw that the reason of his force and why he is still alive is because of you, Miko. »

End of the chapter 5.
First thing first, thank you Theresa for your ‘beta help’ and work again in this story. Thank you so much.
I’m so sorry to have taken so long to update guys. *puppy eyes* Please, don’t hate me
I wanted to add that some editing works will be done in this story during the next week, since some people had pointed out problems. If you saw some mistakes feel free to contact me in a PM or e-mail (my addressstefy66000@yahoo.fr) if you wish to show me my errors. I know that I can make a lot of them, english being a language I had studied only in high-school, so you can do it freely. I know that I have some difficulties to see my own mistakes most of the times. But I wish to do better. I don’t want people who speak fluent english, be angry or hate my works because I am far from having a perfect english. However, I’m realistic too. I just hope to do at least a passable job and not a horrible one;)
Well, I have nothing more to say so, all of you guys,
Take care
Sweetest Angel
