InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Love is a Magical Thing ❯ Chapter 3 Unusal Behavior, and The Truth About Monk ( Chapter 3 )

 

 

 

 

 

AN/ This chapter is going to pick up were the last one left off, because Kagome is sitting there with mangled clothing, and everything hanging out. I think Raistlin, Caramon, and Tas should get a tiny glance of Miroku's personality.

 

 

You can only hide your true personality from people for a short amount of time, because it will find a way to filter itself through.

Chapter 3 Unusual Behavior, And the Truth is Withheld

 

 

Kagome knew she had been sitting there staring into the fire for almost ten minutes, the whole time not one of the other three members of this new band of beings had spoke since the one known as Caramon had reprimanded Tas for his comment about her backpack. Miroku sat next to her in meditation, she could feel all of their curiosity torwards both her and Miroku, she was sure Raistlin interest was because of their power, Caramon she could not tell why he was curious, but she had looked up from the fire one time and her eyes met his, and then he actually blushed, and it finally sank in that her shirt had be totally destroyed, glancing down torwards her chest she noticed her shirt was totally cut apart, her bra was still intact she could feel it underneath the bandages that was wrapped around her body, but still they had all saw her goods, and last but not least Tas, a small sad smile streaked across her face at the thought of him, he reminded her of Shippo, her miko powers could detect innocence from him, and he was so curious about her she could feel his patience level dropping every minute he could not question her and Miroku.

 

 

Standing and drawing everyone attention to her, blushing she tried to speak, “I um” Clasping her hands in front of her body, and giving a nervous laugh, “Hehe” “I think that a change of clothes is in order.” She watched out of the corner of her eye as Miroku's eyes opened and glanced at her. Standing up still holding the Tetsusaiga, reaching her backpack she grabbed the robe of the fire rat and loving wrapped the Tetsusaiga in it once again. Grabbing her backpack she glanced around the campsite, the big one what was his name again, Caramon that's it he would be perfect to scare the crap out of Miroku, blue-gray eyes met ocean blue eyes, narrowing her eyes with a purpose, she walked torwards him side stepping Tas on her way to him, she watched as shock streaked through his eyes, as his posture stiffened. “Your name is Caramon right?” “Yes.” “I want you to do something for me, and I want you to swear, to do it for me.” She watched him look to Raistlin, and then he looked at her, “What is it you wish me to swear to do?” Leaning close to him and whispering in his ear, a few seconds later they all watched Caramon as he leaned away from her looking at her strangely, “Why would you swear me to do this?” The three other beings in the campsite were now looking at the both of them. “Do you swear to do this for me?” Looking once more torwards Raistlin, and then her, “Yes, I swear to do what you asked me to do.” He gasped as she threw a full-blown smile at him, “Thanks.”

 

 

They all watched her walk away and into the darkness, Miroku knew this was his time; he could get up and excuse himself, and see what his mind was showing him about Kagome. A suspicious smile now graced Miroku's face letting his eyes scan the other occupants of campfire, laying both of his hands on the ground, and preparing to stand up, Raistlin's voice drew his interest, “What did she swear you to do?” Pushing himself to his knees, and preparing to get off the ground, heard Caramon's response. “She said that if Miroku tried to leave the campsite after she left, that I was to swear, that I would, how did she put it, beat the ever loving shit out of him.” Looking up he noticed three sets of eyes looking curiously at him, lowering his self in the sitting position, using his gloved hand to scratch the back of his head as a guilty smile formed on his face, while giving a nervous little laugh, “Hee” “Why would Kagome ask my brother to do that to her friend?” Raistlin questioned. Quickly thinking of some excuse, “Lady Kagome did not want me to wonder off and get lost.” As he spoke those words, he knew that the word Lady should not have been said. It was Tas that spoke next, “Lady Kagome, you did not tell us she was of royal blood, come to think of it I once met a Lady-.” “Enough!” Raistlin proclaimed.

 

Before Raistlin could speak Kagome reappeared, Miroku watched as the three beings gasped at the sight of her. She reappeared wearing clothes for her time.

 

Kagome had felt better, happy that she chose to pack in her backpack clothes other than her school uniform, dressed in blue jeans, a white tank top, black hiking boots, and a gray hoodie, that said go team. Reaching the campfire she threw her school uniform that she had been wearing into the fire. Looking at Miroku, and then searching the campsite her eyes found Caramon, smiling once more at him, “Thank you for keeping your word.” Caramon stood and walked torwards Kagome, bowing infront of her “My Lady it was an honor to aid in your request.” Once again bowing infront of her and returning to his seat next to his brother, “What did you do Miroku?” Studying his every move, she noticed his guilty facial expression, she watched how he scratched the back of his head with his gloved hand, bingo he said something, she was just waiting for his nervous little laugh, and she was not disappointed. “Hee.” Once again Raistlin, Caramon, and Tas glanced suspiciously torwards Miroku. Dropping her backpack next to Miroku and laying the robe of the fire, which contained the Tetsusaiga on top of her backpack, “Could you guys excuse us for a moment, I need to talk to Miroku.” Before he could even get up she had gripped his ear, and started pulling away from the others. “Ouch, ouch, Lady Kagome!”

 

“Looks like Miroku, gave us a bit of information, that the Lady did not wish for us to know.” “I wonder how high her family's stature is, the garments that she is dressed in would take the tailor months to complete, and the fabric I have never seen nothing like that, especially that under garment she was wearing to protect her breast, I have been thinking about that small scrap of cloth all night.” “Why brother are you having wanton thoughts about the Lady.” Raistlin stated scathingly, as he watched Caramon blush furiously. “Like I was saying earlier I once met a Lady, it happened on the same adventure were I seen the mammoth.” “Not now Tas, come on Raist, she is so different looking than the women here, her body is so much smaller than any woman I've ever seen, and when we were dressing her wounds her skin was so soft, her legs there was no hair on her legs when I was bandaging the wounds on her legs I could not help to notice how smooth they felt, and even you could not deny that she is beautiful, the only other being that could truly come close to her beauty would be an elfin maiden, even Miroku is more handsome than most men here” “And they are both very powerful, I can feel the power flowing off both of them brother.” Tas was bored the brothers was in conversation with each other, and that yellow backpack, as Kagome had called was calling his name, not to mention the sword, and the robe, now would be the perfect time, for him to look at all three. Reaching his destination, he touched the robe, it was softer than his fur vest, yet to the touch, it did not feel like any clothing he had ever came in contact with, feeling her belongings, made Tas want to see her home even more. Now for the sword for it was wrapped with in the robe, upon opening the robe he finally got to see the sword that had caused so much emotion a little while ago, hazel eyes flexed with blue, changed to hazel eyes flexed with green, as thoughts of unsheathing this sword, as soon as he touched the sword something began to hurt him, “Ah!” He felt himself being physically thrown away from the sword and all her belongs.

 

Dragging Miroku away from prying eyes, “Kagome please.” Releasing his ear, “You tried to follow me didn't you?” “Not exactly.” Releasing his ear and shoving her index finger into his chest, “Then what exactly, did you do?” “They think that you have royal blood flowing throughout your veins just because I happened to call you Lady Kagome.” “Miroku how could you, you and I both know we are not in the same time, world, or era, we left from that's why I never said the jewel of four souls when I awoke, we no nothing of these beings, and to tell then vital information about us would be stupid.” With that last statement they both heard Tas cry out whipping around they watched Tas fly through the air and landed at least two feet away from Kagome's backpack. Running torwards Tas, after hearing him call out in pain, images of Shippo filled her mind, the fight with the thunder brothers, her helping Shippo escape from the wolf demon tribe, being reunited with him, holding close, cuddling him close to her body, and then images of the final battle, “Look out mamma!” Watching as his took the full force of the tentacle from Naraku that was meant for her. “No!” Running even faster she finally made it Tas, reaching to help him up, “How did your sword do that?” He was fine, grabbing his wrist and pulling him upright, she went to respond. “It has been along night maybe we should get some sleep, right Kagome.”

 

 

“I will even take first watch Kagome.” Miroku stated. Even though they all wanted to question both him and Kagome they all knew tomorrow was another day. “Wake me in a little while to relieve you, Tas come unroll your bedding, you can question them all tomorrow.” Caramon stated.

 

Kagome watched as all of them moved closer together, she watched as Caramon unrolled Raistlin's bedding three feet from a fall tree trunk, he laid his bedding right next to Raistlin, and then she watched as Tas laid his bedding, not even two feet from Caramon. Her main thought was were should she sleep, Miroku she thought she had to sleep some where she was protected on both sides, Inuyasha was no longer here to protect her from his wondering hands.

 

So she waited, until she heard Caramon, and Tas snoring, glancing around the only space left for her to sleep and feel safe was between Raistlin, and the fallen tree trunk, how would Raistlin take the thought of her being this close to him, looking at Miroku and making up her mind, grabbing all of her belongings, she flipped her sleeping bag out between, Raistlin, and the tree trunk, unknown to Kagome that Raistlin was awake, “ Kagome?” “Please Miroku do not act offended, you and I both know how you are.”

 

Laying down Kagome fell into a deep sleep, Raistlin's hour glassed eyes opened and studied her, his appearance did not disgust her, if it did she would not be laying this close to him, turning his hour glass eyes to her face, he knew something the others did not, he could see everyone's beginning and end, he could see all those around him age and die, and yet with the Miroku, and her they did not age in his eyes, reaching a frail hand out and touching her face Raistlin whispered these words, “So beautiful.”
