Caught in the past

Chapter 4

After finishing with her dinner, Kagome went up to her guest room. `What am I supposed to do tomorrow?' she asked herself as she crawled unto her futon.

`Am I just supposed to jump down the well with him and show him around Tokyo? How long does he want to stay there? And how are we going to get around with the paparazzi following us?

With those last thoughts, Kagome fell asleep

~

The next morning, a servant was sent into Kagome's room to wake her up.

"Kagome-sama, you are to be in Sesshoumaru-sama's study in the next half hour."

Kagome opened one sleepy eye, than, rather quickly, sat up. "Thanks-er, what's your name?"

"My name is Miyoko, Kagome-sama. Now, Sesshoumaru-sama wants you to wear one of the kimono's in there." Miyoko pointed to the closet.

After much thought, Kagome picked out a baby blue coloured kimono, with silver sakura petals all around it.

After escorting Kagome to Sesshoumaru's study, Miyoko bid Kagome goodbye. Kagome hesitantly knocked on the sliding screen door.

"Come in." Came Sesshoumaru's voice from inside. Kagome opened the door. Sesshoumaru was sitting in his chair, reading some documents. Kagome just stood there, wondering is she should sit down.

"Sit." Sesshoumaru instructed.

Kagome sat, wondering what he was going to say.

A few minutes passed, then… a cell phone rang. Kagome's cell phone. `Damn, I forgot to turn it off!' she thought as she pulled it out of her obi. Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow.

Kagome gave Sesshoumaru an apologetic look before flipping the phone open amd said,

"Hello? Oh, hey mom. Uh , huh. Ok. That would be great. Listen, can I get back to you later? Ok, thanks. Bye."

Kagome put the phone away, slowly raising her head to meet Sesshoumaru's gaze. She smiled slyly.

"What was that…silver coloured item?" questioned Sesshoumaru, looking slightly curious.

"..Oh, it's called a cellular phone. I use it to keep contact with people when I'm away from home. Nearly everyone in modern day Japan has one," Explained Kagome, "Are we leaving anytime soon?"

Sesshoumaru got to his feet.

"Yes, we are leaving now. When we get to this `modern day Japan' I expect you to show me more of these new inventions." He started walking out of the room. Kagome quickly ran to catch up with him.

When they got to the well, it was already dark out. Kagome took a deep breath, and was about to jump in, when she felt strong muscular arms wrap themselves around her waist.

`What on earth?'

Kagome turned her head slightly to see Sesshoumaru looking straight ahead.

"You will get cold, miko. And I do not wish to drag you out of the well." Kagome was about to protest when Sesshoumaru jumped into the well.

Kagome sighed in relief when she saw the familiar blue light come into view. `So the well let him through…or maybe it let him through because I'm with him..'

When the blue light disappeared, Sesshoumaru immediately dumped out of the well. He then let go of Kagome, and she ran over to open the sliding screen doors.

She yelled, "I'm home!"

"Cease your yelling, girl-" but before Sesshoumaru could finish, another voice yelled out-

"Kagome!" Souta came running out, and gave Kagome a fierce hug. Sesshoumaru almost growled, but caught himself just in time.

After all, even if Kagome belonged to him, it was just her little brother. Souta let go of Kagome and stared at Sesshoumaru with wide eyes.

"Sis, who's he?"

"Oh, he's Sesshoumaru-sama, lord of the western lands," Kagome turned to Sesshoumaru, "Sesshoumaru-sama, this is my brother Souta."

"I see." Was all Sesshoumaru could get out.

"Where's mom?" Kagome asked Souta.

"What? Oh, she went out to do some grocery shopping." Souta was looking at Sesshoumaru with awe. `He's so much cooler than Inu-no-niichan.' He thought.

Sesshoumaru was beginning to get irritated. "Girl, show me around this era." Kagome scowled.

`Even in this era, he's an arrogant bastard.' Thought Kagome bitterly. "I can't. Well, we can't go on foot." She said nervously.

"And why is that?" Sesshoumaru crossed his arms.

"Well, I'm an actress, as I mentioned earlier. We would have to have a car take us around Tokyo, because the paparazzi would follow us."

"Girl, what is a car and what is a paparazzi?" Kagome inwardly groaned. She had a lot of explaining to do.

"Paparazzi are photographers who follow celebrities around to get stories and pictures. Cars are vehicles that move on wheels." She explained.

Sesshoumaru still looked confused, so Kagome grabbed his arm and pulled him towards her parked car.

Rin woke up to an empty room. She sat up in bed, and realized her headache was gone. She wanted to get up and play. "Jaken-sama!" she called cheerfully.

Jaken immediately ran into the room. "What is it Rin?" If anything happened to Rin while Sesshoumaru was gone, he would get into deep trouble later.

"Rin wants to see Sesshoumaru-sama and Kagome-oneesan." Jaken sighed. "They aren't here, Rin."

Rin's face fell. "When are they going to be back, Jaken-sama?" she asked.

"I don't know, Rin. I don't know."

~

Sesshoumaru stared at the parked Porsche in amazement. Kagome sighed. He had been in that position for nearly 10 minutes now. She was beginning to loose her patience.

"Sesshoumaru-sama, if you're done looking at my car, we can get in and I can drive you around Tokyo. But if you want to stay here all day, admiring my car, that's fine with me."

Sesshoumaru looked up. "I am done `admiring' your car, as you say. Now, take me around your village."

Kagome laughed nervously and shook her head. "No. I can't take you when you're dressed like that."

Sesshoumaru frowned. "What exactly is wrong with the way I dress?" Kagome giggled.

"It's just that…people dress differently nowadays. We're gonna have to get you some new clothes." Sesshoumaru narrowed her eyes. "I refuse to wear anything put my normal attire."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Well, I `m not taking you out until we get you in some proper clothes, so…"

Eventually, Sesshoumaru gave in. This was the only way he could go around Tokyo without being "noticed."

They were now in a limousine, heading towards a men's clothing shop. Sesshoumaru was looking out the tinted window, apparently fascinated by all the tall buildings, shops and other cars. Kagome just sat there, staring at him. His emotionless mask wasn't in place anymore, just curiosity all over his face.

When they got to the store, Kagome and Sesshoumaru got of out the limo. When they were about to walk into the store, as Kagome had predicted earlier, the paparazzi came, and started talking pictures. Kagome's eyes widened, and she grabbed Sesshoumaru's arm and pulled him inside.

"Who were those people?" asked Sesshoumaru, as Kagome let go of his arm. "Those were the paparazzi. I try to avoid them when I can. I don't want them writing fake stories about me. It'll cause an uproar."

Before Sesshoumaru could reply, the shopkeeper greeted them. "Irasyaimase! May I help you?" she asked. Her eyes landed on Sesshoumaru's hair, her eyebrows raised.

"Yes, my friend here would like some casual clothes."

~

About and hour later, they emerged from the store, Kagome carrying about 3 large bags.

"See, the clothes in this era aren't that bad, are they?" Kagome questioned.

"They are not as…bad as I expected, Kagome. Where will we go next?" Kagome's eyes widened at the sound of Sesshoumaru saying her name. He had only used it about twice. Maybe he was lightening up a bit. "Well, first, let's get back to my mom's house. Then I'll show you around more." With that, they got into the waiting limo.

Well, I finally finished this chapter.

Here are some terms:

Nii-chan- Older brother. (Usually only little kids use it.)

Onee-san- Older sister.

Irasyaimase- Welcome (Used by shopkeepers when a customer comes in)

I hope this chappie was satisfactory!

I'm desperate for a Beta reader! Please e-mail me or leave a review if interested. Well, that's it for now,

Cheers,
