Dance on ice

Chapter13 Hidden and training

Sorry again, I know this is getting old.

Anyway thanks to all my reviewers! And this chapter is dedicated to all my readers at ff.net and kagome and gina at kagsess.forsaken-faith.org , who have been constantly reminding me to update!

Enjoy!

~^~

swear he is mad!" Kagome whispered , bending

slightly so she was now perfectly skating against Sesshoumaru .

Chuckling softly the man in question, observed her angry and pouting face out of the corner of his eye, chuckling again as he saw her blush.

,,You only say that, because I made you train after this training with him." he told her quietly, spinning her into the air, catching her again after a few seconds.

,,Of course I do, it isn't enough that Mr. Spin, Jump and Dance here annoys me, no you have to annoy me afterwards as well with

remarks like 'you have absolutely no aim' ' that wasn't ment to hit me' and 'you couldn't even move a fly'." Kagome pouted looking at the audience they had.

Rin, Mr.Takada, Mrs.Takada and of course Inuyasha and the Sclave Driver, alias Totousai.

She didn't understand what they were doing here in the first place, she only understood one thing....he wouldn't let them hurt her.

Inuyasha was still here, although Sesshoumaru made sure that if he was even at a 20 foot range to Kagome when she was alone, he would be properly introduced to his poisonous claws.

Kagome couldn't help but pull Sesshoumaru's arms tighter around herself noticing the look Rin gave her. The girl seemed to hate her...although Kagome could feel something behind that hate, something she just couldn't decipher.

,,Relax." She heard him command, and instantly complied.

She suddenly realised how deep the trust to him was imbedded in her soul... she would trust him for eternity, would he ask her life tell her to take hers...she would, she trusted him to never ever hurt her.

,,You're going to go for a long jump, twirl."

He informed her, no order no request, a fact.

She enjoyed it...the feeling... dancing through the air , smiling softly, hearing her heart beat franticly not because of fear but exitement.

Freedom. Often associated with independence.

Yes freedom involved independence to some extent, but still freedom was much, much larger.

She felt free, but she knew she would never feel free unless he was there...

She was independent yes, but real freedom is to allow yourself to depend. Only then can you otbain true freedom.

,,I'm back." She told him smiling, when he caught her in his arms, spinning both of them on the ice.

,,So I see." he responded softly, liking the way she smiled.

,,And we're done." he told her in the same tone still holding her in his arms, when he suddenly stopped.

~^~

,,Good." Sesshoumaru told the crumpled form at his feet.

,,You're getting better with the sword."

,,No really?" she replied sarcasticly still hating the fact that after three hours of training straight he was still up like he had just woken up.

While she...well, let's not comment on her.

She was sweaty, on the floor, and pretty much angry at the jerk in front of her.

Pretty much was a shameless understatement though, he was still looking like the epitome of perfection and she was ...well , everybody got the image.

,,Try to get comfortable." he suddenly told her, yanking her out of the revenge plans he knew she was plotting.

Kagome stared at him wide-eyed.

,,What?!" she asked incredulously. Was he actually not demanding for her to instantly start traing with her bow. He had told her she needed to train with it because of her, what he called, desastrous aim, but now he wanted her to get comfortable?

,,Do as I said. You are going to try summoning an energy field, and for you to be able to start your training with that, you got to get comfortable."

,,Ok." With that Kagome sat herself cross-legged on the floor, willing her body and mind to relax.

But with all her will , she couldn't.

Whenever she would empty her mind something would still be there, lingering under the surface. It scared her somewhat, because she couldn't understand it, couldn't make it leave or show itself.

She tensed, her once outstretched palms, which resided on her knees, automaticly contracting. She searched franticly through the abiss that now seemed to surround her, but still she could not find the key that would unlock that door.

She didn't need to unlock it. The realization came to her, but still, relaxing was easier said

than done.

Suddenly she felt him. He was sitting behind her, his fingers interwining with hers, pressing her back to his chest, and her head to his shoulder.

~^~

He had watched her trying to relax, but still she couldn't and he knew very well that it was elementary in this first stage of her training to do so. Further on it would become routine, but for now...

Slowly sitting down behind her with a natural grace, he watched with mild amusement as she would welcome relaxation along with his touch. It made him wonder, wonder why exactly she responded to him like that.

Putting the matter aside he whispered to her, telling her what to do.

~^~

,,Empty your mind, welcome the darkness, don't try to fight it."

Slowly she let go, let go of her fear, her feeling, her conscious beeing. The only thing which remained, was her trust, her trust to

him.She welcomed the darkness, let it flood into her.

,,Good. Now try to make this darkness yours, make it your love, your child, your protegee."

She did so, did what he asked, and she felt it, felt the darkness shift, change.

From black it became purple, liliac, soft pink, white and even auburn...

Then she felt it. The darkness... it atacked her, atacked what she had claimed..

,,It atacks you, so you will protect. Protect what you have claimed and chosen."

And that she did. A purple flash of light suddenly emanated from her, passing right through him, never harming him though.

The light stopped at a 30foot distance around them, shielding them from the world.

First try and she already had this kind of power.

Smirking he bent down to kiss the soft skin beneath her ear, silently telling her it was now enough.

Slowly she opened her eyes, watching the barrier she had created disappear, feeling

Sesshoumaru's gentle kisses on her neck.

,,You did great for a first time. I expect you will always make a wonderfull experience out of initiations." He whispered seductively, not expecting to be thrown across the meadow they now were in by a power blast.

Kagome turned around at him with an apologizing smile.

,,Oops." she whispered, she had meant to hit him but hey this was good to or at least it would be if she were faster.

Scrambling to her feet she ran in the opposite direction of her newest enemy, making Sesshoumaru smirk with a predatory look in his chestnut eyes.

~^~

,,You didn't tell him what would expect you all now did you? I, the daughter of Naraku Onigumo, will not be handeled this disrespectfully!" a girl yelled at a very tired looking man, who had only one thought in mind.

The wrong I have done in the past, I can not erase, but for now I can at least protect my son.

~^~

,,Tell the hanyou I want the jewel, without any excuses."

,,What about your daughter?"

,,She can have what she wishes if the miko dies."
