Chapter 5 - Investigations and a fight
XXXXX
“Come on Kirara look what I have found!” yelled Shippo while pulling a yellow backpack out of the bushes. The little fire cat ran over to the fox to investigate what he had found. “Look that is Kagomes backpack. I'm sure she wouldn't leave it here. Maybe she is still in the feudal era. What do you think?” Kirara sniffed the air and meowed happily. Then she darted over into the bushes with Shippo close on her heels.
“Wait where are you going!” yelled the little demon as he tried to catch up with the fully transformed fire cat. Suddenly Kirara stopped causing Shippo to run into her. Motioning him to climb up he jumped onto her back. As soon as he was sitting on her back Kirara broke into a run. “I guess you have a track?” - “Meow (=yes)” was her only answer. Kirara ran for nearly an hour until she reached the small cave Kagome had slept in. Together with Shippo they investigated for any signs of the woman but the only thing they found was the vile stench of Naraku.
“He has kidnapped her that bastard and its all our fault. We should have helped her. Why did we have to..” but he was cut off when a wolf jumped before his feet. Scared the little fox ran behind Kirara. Suddenly a whirlwind came out behind some trees. “Hey you aren't you the cat and the fox that belong to the dog mutts little party?” asked the not very friendly looking Kouga. Trying to be brave Shippo got before Kirara and looked angry at the demon prince. “What trying to be brave huh. Well you could try to inform me why I smell my woman all over the place? Hasn't the mutt sent her home?”

“Dog village?” asked the dumbfound Kagome as they walked through the forest. “The village I ruled. Haven't you heard about it.” - “No I mean Inuyasha nor Myouga have mentioned it. I thought Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were the only dog demons alive” - “I see. So Sesshomaru has not taken my place as the chief of the village, that was to be expected!” - “I didn't know that Sesshomaru was a prince or something. He always wandered around with the little human girl and the green toad for what I know” - “A human girl? It seems that the time could even change his cold heart” - “Yes, we were also surprised when we first met her. He even saved her although he didn't seem to care but I think since then he has become ... ahm well you can't say nice but something like that.”
Touga chuckled at Kagomes description of his first born. He knew that he was a `little' cold hearted `He must have got that from his mother' They walked in silence for quiet some time until Kagome spoke up “Could we please rest a little bit?” - “There is a stream a half mile away from here. We will rest when we get there!” came the calm reply of the demon lord. After 15 minutes they finally reached the small clearing beside the river.
Kagome sat down and leaned her back on a tree. She closed her eyes and let the sound of the river calm her down. After some minutes she noticed that someone stared at her. Quickly she opened her eyes and noticed Touga smiling at her. She couldn't help it and blushed furiously at the dazzling smile he gave her. Touga just smiled wider at her antics. Never in his life he had met such a curious creature. Sesshomarus mother was more cold and distant and Inuyashas mother was a perfect lady but this one interested him there was something about her that was astonishing.
Getting rather uncomfortable with his staring Kagome suggested to re-bandage and clean his wound. It amazed her how quickly his wound was healing. Although he wasn't quiet that strong he should be he was getting better every minute. Carefully not to hurt him she made her way and successfully cleaned and bandaged him up. “Thank you its not very often to meet such kind people like you. I am a demon after all and you are a miko!” - “It wouldn't be right otherwise and I really don't like the most mikos. They are arrogant and kill every demon they find without thinking that there could be some nice ones too!”
The stars shined brightly in the sky and the moon was up. Stiffing a yawn Kagome laid down beside and Touga and was asleep instantly. The dog demon regarded her peacefully sleeping face and traced a single claw over her flawless skin. He placed the fur cloak over her slightly shivering form and leaned back onto a tree. He closed his eyes but did not let his guard down. He thought back when he was revived. That rotten smell of the demon Naraku still lingered in his nose.
The first thing he felt when he opend his eyes was confusion. `Wasn't I dead. What am I doing here?' Slowly opening his eyes he found a demon standing a few meters before him. “Ah so my pet has awakened. It took you quite some time!” spoke the stranger. Weakly Inutaisho stood up but staggered a few as he tried not to fall back down through the lack of strength. “Who are you?” he demanded to know surprised how weak even his voice sounded. “I am Naraku your Master!” - “I am nobodies slave!” - “Ah it seems there is running some stubbornness through the family but don't worry we will get rid of this emotion soon. So if you don't come willingly my dear Touga than I am forced to use violence!” The dog demon snarled at the creature before him but before he could react the demon had sliced him with a clawed hand. The last thing he could remember was the grinning face of Naraku before he succumbed to the pain.
He would not take it lightly that this Naraku had taken advantage of his weakened state through the resurrection. He would make him pay for what he had done to him and the little woman beside him.

Sesshomaru jumped out of the way when a bunch of tentacles shot at him again. Snarling he sliced through them but was hit by another bunch behind him. Getting back to his feet he growled dangerously at the demon before him. “You can be happy. Your father was easier to defeat. You should be proud of yourself. Hah!” Finishing his speech Naraku continued to shoot tentacles after the demon prince. It took everything of Sesshomaru not to get sliced but after some time he managed to hit Naraku directly with Toukijin (?).
Angry at being hit Naraku pulled his tentacles back and started to slice at the dog demon with his claws. Finally he hit him and successfully broke his armor a little. `Since when has he became this strong?' thought Sesshomaru. He was getting a little exhausted no one ever managed to do that expect for his father. Jumping back a few meters he started to throw another attack at Naraku. But he had other plans “I am sorry to leave you so soon Lord Sesshomaru” he said sarcastically “ but it will be not me who will kill you as I said before your father will do me that favor. Now if you exucse me I have to pay a visit to your dear half brother!” and as soon he said that he was gone.
`Fool you will never defeat this Sesshomaru nor will my father be controlled by the likes of you!' Sesshomaru turned around growling angrily and walked straight into the forest. “Wait Master Sesshomaru where are we going?” yelled the 11 year old girl while she ran after her lord. “Master Sesshomaru will never ..!” spoke Jaken but was caught of by his Masters voice “To find my father!” and with that he walked on.
