Chapter 7 – Likable Teasing And Complications

He growled low as he paced back and forth in his study, it had been a week since his run in with the fiery Miko and he could not for the life of him rid his head of her. He kept asking himself why she irked him so, what it was about her that made him loose control and want to kill everything in sight; her words came back to him.
“I know you can kill me, but i also know you wont,” her voice whispered in his head, “Do it Sesshomaru, kill me now if you can” Did this human have a death wish? Most people, humans and demons alike would be groveling at his feet begging for forgiveness for any transgressions towards himself. But no, this little Miko held no fear when she looked him straight in the eye and challenged him.
“Damn that wench!” he growled loudly as he threw a nearby statue at the wall shattering it into oblivion.

The loud noise brought a small girl about the age of 12 running into the room with a look of concern on her face.
“Are you alright Sesshomaru-sama?” the little girl asked as she placed a hand on his arm.
“Yes Rin, this Sesshomaru is alright, i am sorry if i frightened you,” he said as he gently placed a hand on her head.
“What is it that has you so worked up Sesshomaru-sama?” she asked as she walked to the door and asked for a maid to come and clean the mess.
“You would not understand Rin,” he said as he turned to look out the window.

Rin looked at him for a few minutes taking in the normally expressionless facial features and immediately smiled, “it's a girl isn't it!” she couldn't help the giggle when she saw the slight widening of his eyes, she had gotten it right.
“what makes you think that?” he asked secretly wondering to himself how Rin had gotten so observant.
“It's all but obvious Sesshomaru-sama, you've been brooding for the past week now.” she said and placed a small slender finger on her chin and began to think, “ hmm, now let me see, i'll bet that she stood up to you and gave you a blow to your ego right?”
The Taiyoukai turned and looked at the seeming 12 year old girl and quirked a brow, “Who are you and what have you done with my ward?”
Rin giggled and cocked her head to the side, “what do you mean Sesshomaru-sama, i AM Rin,” she said with a huge smile.
“Are you sure, my ward was never this insightful or observant,” he said trying to turn the subject from the fact that she was right, no such luck though.
“I'm sorry Sesshomaru-sama, but yes i have always been this way you just never took the time to notice really before, and I'm taking that i am right about what this girl did by the way you are avoiding the subject.” she stated, slightly pouting that her lord had so little faith in her.

Sesshomaru sighed, since when had his ward who used to run around in fields of flowers and seemed to be so naive become so wise and insightful. Finally letting go and relaxing which he old did in her presence he caved, “fine, what is it you wish to know Rin?” he said seating himself at his desk.
Rin Smiled, “what did she do to anger you so?” she asked, she was slightly concerned for this girl due to the fact that she knew what his temper could be like with the amount of time she had been taken when she was younger. Sesshomaru told her the events that passed but left out the fact of who the party was and who the girl was and Rin nodded knowingly.
“What is it Rin?” Sesshomaru asked, inwardly fascinated but this new persona his ward had taken on.
Rin giggled as she went over it in her head and came to an understanding, “I'm sorry to inform you Sesshomaru-sama, but she was teasing you,” she said and her smile widened as the Youkai in front of her stiffened.
“What do you mean Rin?” he was inwardly confused and frustrated as well as angry that she had dared to tease him, but why?
“please do not take this the wrong way Sesshomaru-sama, but for a demon over 1000 years old you can be pretty naive yourself.” Rin inwardly smirked, a trait she had picked up from Sesshomaru over the years, oh yes she knew what was going on, she knew exactly who this mystery girl was and she also knew that just by looking at him that weather he knew it or not; Sesshomaru was well on his way to falling for the fiery Miko.
“You will refrain from speaking to this Sesshomaru like that again Rin, do you understand!” his eye twitching at the fact that HE was called naive.
“I meant no disrespect Sesshomaru-sama, i was merely stating that you do not see what is quite clear.” Rin smiled, she was a lot wiser now than she was when she first started traveling with her Sesshomaru-sama, and in truth it was all thanks to the Miko who now seemed to haunt her father figures every thought.

She had always helped her to understand things a lot more than anyone else, she had helped her in her transition from child to young woman and helped ease her fears. She had taught her about herbs and how to care for herself if she got sick, she had been there as someone to talk to when Sesshomaru was patrolling and she had been asked to look after her. She was the mother figure that she lost so long ago and thought she would never regain, she felt so warm and wanted in her presence, felt like nothing could harm her. She taught her so much in the short amount of time they actually spent together but she never wanted to have those times taken away. Recently though she had been talking more and more about Sesshomaru and it made her begin to wonder, did Kagome love her Sesshomaru-sama?

She was lost in her own little world of memories when she was startled out of them but Sesshomaru's voice, “I'm sorry Sesshomaru-sama, i spaced out for a minute.” at Sesshomaru's quirked brow she thought of a way of explaining it, “it means i was in my own little world and wasn't paying attention, it's a saying Kagome taught me,” she smiled
“indeed,” was all he said as he looked out the window in deep thought.
Rin sighed, “i think the reason Kagome is teasing you Sesshomaru-sama, is because she likes you.” She watched in fascination as the normally stoic Youkai's head snapped to look at her with impossibly wide eyes.
“Why in Kami's name would you say that Rin!” he was trying to regain control of his body and slow down his suddenly rapid heart beat.

'Why is my heart beating so fast? What the hell did she do to me! Am i under some kind of spell?' he asked himself.
'You like her thats why' his beast purred
' What are you talking about? This Sesshomaru does NOT like that pathetic wretched Miko' he snarled back.
'well, you might not like her, but i sure do' his inner beast grinned ' she is the only person to EVER stand up to you and not be afraid of dying, she even challenged you; if thats not worthy of my attention i don't know what is. Just thinking of all the wonderfully delightful things i could do to that body...'
'You will NOT touch Kagome!'
Sesshomaru snarled unknowingly falling into his inner beasts trap.
' umm... i am you so technicaly YOU'RE thinking these things, but it's strange... i thought you said you didn't like her? Or maybe your just obsessing over the fact that you DON'T like her so much that you fail to see that regardless of what you do or say you do like her, she has gained respect with you, you can not fool your inner beast Sesshomaru i AM you.' His inner beast grinned as he felt Sesshomaru stiffen.
'........'
'See, i know you Sesshomaru she is strong willed and can defend herself very well, you saw that as well as i did; you and i also saw...'
his inner battle with his beast was cut short due to Rin shutting the door after whispering a soft 'goodnight Sesshomaru-sama'.
He looked out the window once more trying to sort through his muddled mind that was running a million miles per hour. “ Did she tease me because she likes me?” he asked himself in a soft whisper as he looked into the sky and let his mind wander to a certain raven haired fiery Miko.

Kagome sat at the fires edge staring into the dancing flames and suddenly felt her ears go hot, "hmm... someone must be talking about me." she said softly to herself as she looked up int othe star filled sky. It had been a week since her run in with Sesshomaru and she couldn't stop the smile spredding across her face at the look of indignation in his eyes when she challanged him, she knew very well that being chalanged by a human, a woman no less would be a giant blow to his ego. Regardless of what she had seen in the future she had started to think of Sesshomaru more and more as a friend. Why did she feel the need to push Sesshomaru and why was she being so playful and teasing with him, of corse it was fun but she didnt actualy know why she did it. Kagome sighed and shook her head, thinking about this sort of stuff was getting her nowhere and fast. She looked around the camp and smiled a soft smile as her eyes seemed to calm and her body relax, Shippo was cuddled into her side fast asleep mummbling something along the lines of "come back and let me eat you Mr.lollipop" Kagome giggled and patted him on the head. Miroku was leaning against a tree with Kilala on his sholder and some time during the night Sango had moved to be now leaning against his chest, Miroku was in for it in the morning and he didnt even do anything, Kagome let out a little giggle at the thought and Shippo stirred. She picked him up and walked over to her sleeping bag and gently placed him in, giving him her stuffed bear to cling to in place of herself and went to look for the only person who was missing from the group... Inuyasha.

Kagome followed the path along to where she knew Inuyasha would be, not only was his aura comming from the direction, but that is thedirection the soul stealers were headed. Kagome stopped behind a big tree and masked her aura and scent and watched the scene unfold, seeing Inuyasha and Kikyo together didn't break her heart like it used to and that in intself surprised her, but not as much as what happened next.
"It's good to see you still come when I call for you Inuyasha," Kikyo said with a grin as she walked up to the Hanyou and placed a hand on his cheek.
"That's not why i came and you know it Kikyo," he replied in a soft voice as he pushed her hand away.
"So... let me guess," she hissed with narrow eyes, "you're here to tell me that you wish to leave me for my reincarnation is that it? You never loved me! if you had ever loved me you would keep the promise you made me 53 years ago and be ONLY mine! you promised me that when this is over that i could take you to hell and be at peace! you liked to me Inuyasha, you betrayed me!" she screamed in his face.
"No Kikyo," he whispered, "i didn't betray you, it's you who betrayed me. I SAW you with him, I SAW you damn RUT with him! dont you DARE tell me about betrayal! since you came back you have done NOTHING but brood over the past, try to kill Kagome who has done nothing to you and help the one who KILLED you! and you say that I and the betrayer! You have been dead for 53 years Kikyo, you are no longer the person i made the promise to all those years ago so i no longer have to keep it because she is gone forever." and with that he beganto walk away.
"You know," Kikyo said her head bowed so her bangs covered her eyes, "i have two things to say to you now Inuyasha, one Naraku was a better rut that you EVER could be, and two; he's planning on taking your little Kagome away forever," Smirking she lifted her head.
"What do you mean?" he asked, completely ignoring the fact that she had insulted him.
"What i mean is, my master has taken a little fancy to your little companion and wishes to make her his mate after she is properly broken of corse," she widely grinned atthe possibility that SHE would be the one to break her.
"he will NEVER get his hands on Kagome! not while i'm here!" he yelled his hand on Tetsuaga's hilt.
"oh and why would that be you pathetic Hanyou!" she hissed.
"BECAUSE I LOVE HER AND I'LL KILL ANYONOE WHO TRIES TO TAKE HER FROM ME!" he yelled and swung his sword in Kikyo's direction.
"well... this just became interesting" said a figure sitting high in a tree. "i shall tell my master at once" thie figure said as he jumped off to inform his master to the west, along with another cloaked figure. As the two spies were running off to convey news to their respective masters Kagome was leaning againts the tree with wide eyes and a hand covering her mouth to stop the escaping gasp.

'Well... things are certainly looking interesting... and bad, what the hell am i going to do! i'm ment to be with Sesshomaru but what am i going to do about Inuyasha!' Kagome thought to herself as she silently walked back to camp and lay in her sleeping bag just as Inuyasha bound back into camp. Kagomepretended to be asleep as Inuyasha silently walked over and crouched down next to her and ran the back of his hand down her cheek.
" I won't let anything happen to you Kagome I promise, i'm not going to let anyone hurt the people i care about, no one will take you from me i swear it." and with that said he lept into his tree and felt into a half aware sleep, leaving Kagome to her wild and very confusing thoughts.
