Chapter 7: Assistance Part 1

`Does he dare laugh to mock this Sesshoumaru, Western Lord.' The taiyoukai asked himself keeping his senses focused on the intruder.

"I wish not to cause havoc on your calm lands but to only obtain what is mine." The hanyou intruder Naraku said calmly.

"I have nothing of yours hanyou, so leave now, this is your last warning. I give no empty threats if you are unaware." He stated keeping his back to Naraku.

"Ku Ku Ku." He laughed out again.

Without vacillation the taiyoukai pulled out his Toukijin and with one fluid movement he spun around and slashed the hanyou in half.

To Sesshoumaru's dismay nothing but a baboon pelt fell to the ground leaving the Kugutso in sight.

`The hanyou will pay for his tricks.' He vowed to himself, curting his eyes at the items left behind.

Sesshoumaru no longer sensed Naraku or his puppets nor did he feel compelled to search his lands for any other unwanted guests. He coursed through his lands back to his fortress.

`The miko is the cause for Naraku's presence. She will give me all of the information on this hanyou.' He told himself walking up a stone stairway past his iron gates.

*~*~*~*~*

Sayaiko returned as promised to the miko's room with three bundles of fresh kimono's.

The first consisting of red and white (traditional miko garments), the second sky blue with white textured clouds and the last was all white with pink roses fading from the hip to shoulder, each made of the finest silk.

She set them neatly on the vanity when she observed the miko sound asleep.

Sayaiko watched pure energy surround the miko in her slumber.

Her face showed nothing but fascination for the miko's subconscious power. She slowly reached out to touch the barrier but a small shock went through her body when she made contact.

Kagome stirred slightly but remained asleep.

Yet Sayaiko remained curious of the miko's powers. So she once more attempted to touch the purified barrier. Only this time she didn't feel a shock, instead with great force she was slammed into the oak desk across the room making a terribly loud noise.

Kagome shot upright with her eyes wide as saucers but the barrier disappeared immediately.

"Sayaiko?" she asked rubbing her eyes, "Is that you?"

"Hai, Kagome-san, gomen nasai for waking you." Sayaiko answered dusting herself off.

"It's ok, but how did you break the desk?"

Sayaiko looked behind her to see the desk split in two and gasped at what had caused.

Leaving Kagome's question unanswered Sayaiko stepped to the broken desk and placed her hands on the pieces that lay slanted on the floor.

Kagome watched a lite green light engulf the desk and the youkai servant. She heard small whispers almost like chants come from the desk and Sayaiko in unison.

She was speechless from the acts presented before her.

Sayaiko's hands outstretched and transformed into branches the same texture as the oak desk. Her head was thrown back and she softly said, "Hayashi Utsukushii."

When those words were spoken the two wooden pieces mended back together, the light dimmed out and Sayaiko's hands changed back to human form leaving her breathing raggedly.

Kagome was now off the futon and kneeled down next to Sayaiko and reached out to her as she passed out.

"Sayaiko, are you ok?" she asked the unconscious servant.

"She will be fine." Assured the Western Lord in a dull tone from behind the miko and his servant.

Kagome gasped from his sudden appearance.

"Leave her there, I will send someone to treat her. We need to speak." Sesshoumaru continued.

"I'm not going to just leave her lying here!" Kagome said still shaken by what she just perceived.

"Wench she is fine. Come with me now." he ordered.

Kagome looked down at the helpless Sayaiko and then looked down at what she was wearing.

"Can I put on some clothes?" she asked sheepishly.

Sesshoumaru looked down at the miko and snickered.

"Do it quickly."

Kagome was ready to rise but noticed the youkai Lord still looking at her.

"You hentai! If you think I'm gonna change in front of you then you g-"

"Don't flatter yourself and watch your tone with me wench. You have five minutes until I return." he cut her off and left closing the door behind him.

"Jerk." she hissed out .

Kagome stood up, carefully picked Sayaiko up and laid her down gently on the curtained futon.

She quickly looked through the bundle of kimono's and picked the red and white miko garments.

She put it on with ease and glanced at herself in the mirror.

`What are you getting yourself into Kagome?' she nagged herself.

She took a deep breath and turned around to find her nose buried in Sesshoumaru's chest. Instantly she stepped back.

"What do you get out of sneaking in on people!" she squealed.

"Shizuka wench! I will not tolerate your squeals. If you continue to annoy me you will soon reside in my dungeons. Now come!" he growled.

Kagome was ready to protest but held her tongue taking his threat to heart.

She followed him out of the room and two other servants went in the room after them.

She opened her mouth to ask what were doing but already knowing her question Sesshoumaru stated, "Do not be alarmed they were sent to treat her."

Kagome gave no response but continued to follow him silently through the stony candlelit corridors.

They walked outside to a beautifully flowered garden in the back of Sesshoumaru's fortress.

She wondered why he brought her to the garden so late in the day, but soon thought nothing of it.

Sesshoumaru sat on a stone bench and ordered Kagome to sit down as well.

She obeyed willingly leaving little space between them.

"Tell me what you know about Naraku." he said staring straight ahead.

"Like what?" she asked not sure of why he would even care about her arch nemesis.

"The hanyou was here claiming I have a possession of his here on my lands." he answered now looking at the uncompleted jewel hanging from the miko's neck.

Kagome clasped her hand onto the jewel when his gaze reached it and hissed out, "That good for nothing half wit. He's still trying to get the jewel and he doesn't even have any of his own shards to defend himself!"

"There was a Kugutso instead of him in the flesh." he informed her returning his gaze to the nothingness ahead.

"That's impossible, if he used a puppet then he must have Shikon No Tama shards!" she said in disbelief.

"Do you think I would waste my time lying to you wench?" he said giving her an annoyed glare.

She turned her head away and rolled her eyes.

`Where could he have gotten more shards. Only………' she thought.
