Chapter 13

 

'I can't believe the week I'm having,' was all Jade could think. They were being attacked by several lesser demons trying to get the shards as usual. Inuyasha had already killed a few of them while the others were taking down the rest. No one noticed that another presence was watching the battle. After defeating the demons everyone was resting when Jade sensed the new aura. 'This isn't my day,' she thought not for the first time and stood.

 

Kagome watched her sister stand and wondered what was going on. She reached out and touched her sister's mind,"whats wrong Jade?"

 

"After watching me for so long he has decided to come and see me somewhat in person."

 

"Who,"asked Kagome.

 

"Naraku, but like the coward he is he is sending a puppet. Don't worry though, I'll be back soon." Jade was walking to the edge of the clearing when the others asked where she was going. "I'll be back soon don't worry." Jade traveled quickly by transforming into a ball of light and speeding several miles away. She didn't want the others to be concerned or him to harm them. He was coming to see her and she knew it. What she hadn't realized was that a pair of familiar amber eyes had seen the transformation and followed. She stopped at a small clearing and sat down to wait. It was only a few minutes before the figure in a baboon pelt showed himself.

 

Naraku gazed at the beauty as she stood to face him and felt the blood in his veins start to burn as he watched her face him alone. He had been watching her and had somewhat become obsessed with her beauty and firey spirit that refused to be tamed. He chuckled evilly, "you are foolish to face me alone Lady Jade, but I admire your courage."

 

"Save the flattering Naraku it's about time you stopped watching me through Kanna's mirror. I don't like my privacy invaded. The only thing about me you need to know is that I will be the one to condem your soul to the seventh level of hell and next time come yourself don't send another puppet or are you afraid to face me?"

 

"I came to offer you a truce priestess. I'll spare your life if you join me. Your powerful and I could use you by my side. If you refuse I will have to force you and kill your friends in front of you."

 

"You spare my life," she laughed. "It'll take more than you have to ever defeat me. I would never side with a vile creature such as you. Your pathetic and unless you have the courage to face me for real don't show yourself again." Having said her peace she formed another purity disc between her fingers and hit the puppet immediately turning the puppet to dust. She was turning to leave when felt a second presence. 'Kami, why do ou hate me today,'she thought. "Why are you here Sesshomaru?" He had stepped out of the bordering trees and was watching her.

 

"How is it that a ningen can travel the same way that only powerful taiyoukais have ever been able to travel?"

 

She looked at him and grinned, "the last I checked most creatures could run and walk."

 

"Do not play with me Jade, I saw your transformation to travel and why were you meeting with Naraku?"

 

She glared at him, "I was trained by many different strong youkai long ago and was taught to travel that way. As I explained before, I had many different sensai's. As for Naraku, he has been watching me for nearly as long as you and finally decided to see me through his puppet. I didn't want him anywhere near the others. Now if you'll excuse me I need to return and get ready to leave."

 

"Where are you going?"

 

"Not that its any of your business, but I'm going home for a few days. There are duties that need to be tended to."

 

Sesshomaru looked at her with curiosity,"and where is home?"

 

"That my dear Lord Sesshomaru falls under the none of your business category. After all it wouldn't do to have you disrupting everything by trying to kill me as usual. Now if you'll excuse me I'm heading back to rest before I leave."

 

He wasn't about to let her go that easily especially when she was talking about where she came from. As she walked by he grabbed her wrist and brought her close to his body holding her arms so she couldn't move. "I would like to know where you come from Jade. By the way you talk you are a Lady of you lands, but I have never seen you at any of the gatherings or kingdoms I have visited."

 

"When this is over all will know who I am and where I come from now release me."

 

Sesshomaru looked into her eyes and felt like he was drowning in her depths. The next thing he knew he was crushing his lips to hers and demanding entrance into her mouth by forcing his tongue into her depths. He still held her tightly to him, but moved one hand slowly to her neck. His hand fisted in her hair there and he moved her head to gain better access and deepen the kiss further. She was still struggling, but the hold he had left little room to struggle. All he could think about was how sweet she tasted and wanted more. He kissed over her jaw line and down to where her neck and shoulder met lightly sucking making her struggle even more.

 

Jade had never had someone try to dominate her as he did. She nearly gave in, but when his lips moved to the spot where demons mark their mates,between the neck and shoulder,she reagained her control. As she did last time she put her hands to his chest and threw him off of her. He was watching her with closely guarded emotions and his once more stoic mask in place. There for a moment she thought she saw regret in his eyes, but regret for what. "Don't do that again Lord Sesshomaru. I don't know what just happened all I know is that it won't happen again." With that said she transformed and retuned to camp.

 

"Why the hell do you smell like Sesshomaru?"yelled Inuyasha.

 

Jade glared at him. "I'm going to rest for a little while and then I'll be returning home for a few days."

 

"What the hell do you mean your going home."

 

"I do have other duties to attend to Inuyasha." She layed down on a soft patch of grass and drifted off into a dreamless sleep. When she awoke she was faced with everyone watching her. "Is something wrong?"

 

Miroku was watching her and decided to ask what was on everyone's mind. "Jade where do you come from? We know so little about you."

 

"I have made a life for myself a great distance from here Miroku. A place that few ever see and if they do it's by my invitation alone."

 

"You spoke of duties,"he asked again.

 

Jade smiled, "I have gained many duties, Miroku. I explained to you some of my past and now you know that I made a life for myself. Unfortunately a life that now includes many duties that I must attend to."

 

"If you have such a long journey how is it you will be back in a few day?"

 

"There are many different ways to travel Miroku don't worry. In three days I will find you." She stood giving Kagome, Sango and Shippo a hug. Although she took a step back when Miroku tried to give her a hug not trusting his hands. Saying goodbye she walked to the next clearing and brought forth her scythe. She made a downward slice in which a portal appeared and after stepping through it closed behind her. Her last thought was maybe I can get some privacy and peace at home for a little while.
