Chapter Four: Leaving and Traveling

Everything was packed on Ah-Un. Everybody was standing around waiting for any final instructions from their lord. The lord himself was standing as tall and emotionless as always.

"Let us go." Sesshoumaru's voice rang out. With that seven beings lifted off the ground. Five were on Ah-Un and two were on a red cloud that looked as unnatural as it was. It would take three day to travel to the castle of the Southern Lands. Kagome was still trying to figure out the conversation she had with Sesshoumaru the night before.

*Flashback*

"You called, my lord," she said walking into his study.

"Yes we need to talk," his reply seemed to ring though out the books she adored so much. "What do you think your role is here?"

"Guardian of your ward," was her simple answer.

"That is true but you are also my student, a miko, and a scholar," was a more complicated answer then she would ever even think of.

"What is this about, Sessoumaru?" She was a little nervous now, not that anyone could tell.

"I need to figure out how to let them announce you."He was stopped by Kagome, the only one to get away with it without being dead the next moment.

"Why should they announce me at all? I am, after all, a part of your household, there is no reason to announce a servant." Sesshoumaru then in turn cut her off.

"Because I do not see you as just a servant," he had no idea why he was saying this but he continued, "If you have not noticed you now run half this household and still keep up with me during your training. You also have my respect." This was all said with more emotion then even he thought he had.

She was stunned. The great demon lord had admitted that he respected her, a human. She was so shocked that she let her mask slip, the first time he had seen emotion on her features since he had brought her here, and the shock was shown on her face and in her voice. "Th-thank y-you, my l-l-lord."

Seeing emotion on her face once more made something inside of him click. He wanted to see emotion on the canvass, which was her face, more often. It seemed to belong there. He studied her face a little and found that her very pink lips were parted slightly in the shock he had caused. It was like he was in a trance; he could not look away from her perfect lips. He was suddenly in front of her and leaning down to capture those sweet morsels that were presented to him.

The kiss was short and sweet, made even more so when she automatically responded. A second latter he was by the door. "Think of what we have talked about and tell me what you wish to be announced as." That was all he said as he walked out the door like nothing had happened but a simple talk. Leaving a smiling Kagome behind.

*End Flashback*
