Chapter 5: The chase
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.
The necklace was starting to glow violently and the moon was now completely covered by darkness. Luckily, Sesshomaru could see in the darkness so had no problem see Kira. Her aura grew stronger and stronger, and soon it was almost stronger than his. This was when he started to get a little worried, but of course he didn't show it any.
He looked down at the necklace and knew it was the cause of all this. Sesshomaru quickly went to Kira and yanked the necklace off of her. All of the darkness disappeared and the moon shined through his window once again.
As he looked at the unconscious Kira, he thought, “who is Kira. First the strange symbol appeared on her forehead. Then the fight with the demon and now this. What mortal could ever hold this muck power?” Kira started to wake up and held her head. Then she saw that Sesshomaru was standing over her.
“W-what am I doing on the floor?” asked Kira in a small voice.
“This necklace took control of you.” said Sesshomaru.
Kira looked down at the floor no longer wanting to look at him or for him to look at her. “So it's starting again. Sigh…but at least this time no one die. Yet any way. I have to leave here tonight.” Sesshomaru held his hand down to help her up.
She took hold of it and then they went to sleep. Five hours before sunrise, Kira woke up and got ready to leave. She looked over at Sesshomaru to make sure that he was still asleep and to make sure that he wouldn't follow her.
She snuck out of his room and creep down the halls. When she got outside, there was a boy standing in front of her. He stared up at her with sad eyes.
“Your leaving here never to return aren't you?” asked the boy.
Kira just nodded and looked down at the boy. He was looking up at the moon, and then looked up at her.
“I thought you would. So I stayed up that way I could say goodbye. I know that everyone here may seem ungrateful towards you, but really there just afraid. I also wanted to give you this.” said the boy as he held up a black cloak.
“Thank you.” she said bending down and hugging the boy.
She put on the cloak and headed off. She ran towards the village. There she bought a few things the help her, and then she ran off toward the south.
Only a few hours had passed and she wasn't far enough yet. She had to get further before he realized that she was gone. Further ahead of the path, she saw a man by the stream resting.
Not to far way from him were a few horses. She crept over to the horses and untied one of them. The man saw her and started to run towards her, but it was too late. She had already mounted the horse and stared ridding off with the sun starting to show.
Back at the castle: Sesshomaru was already up and was starting to look for Kira. He had never seen anyone awake before him before, so he thought that something might be wrong. He looked all over his mansion and could find her anywhere.
He was now approaching the main entrance and saw the boy leaned up against the door asleep. He walked over to the boy and picked him up. Then he took the boy back to his room.
As he was tucking in the boy, he woke and looked at Sesshomaru.
“Don't go after her. She doesn't want to hurt anyone.” said the boy.
At first Sesshomaru didn't know what to think of this, but he knew what he had to do if he was ever going to learn who she was. He left the boy room and found that one of his servants was now up.
He went up to her and said, “tell Jaken to take care of Rin while I'm gone, and that I don't know when I will be back.”
The servant just nodded and then went back to what she was doing. Sesshomaru went to his room and got dressed in his usual attire. Then he rushed out and started to sniff for Kira sent.
He could tell that she had gone to the village to the south. He ran there and traced her sent to a store. He sniffed the air again and followed it out of the village.
Within two hours he met up with the man that she stole the horses from. He stopped and talked to the man who told him what direction she rod off in. Before the man knew, Sesshomaru had already left and was now only a streak.
Kira was almost to her own domain now. It would only be a matter of seconds till she reached her destination. She got off of the horse and left it near water as she ran off towards her home.
She ran towards the ebony fields and found the tunnel that took her deep down into the earth. The tunnel was long and narrow. It took her two hours just reach the bottom.
When she exited the tunnel, there was a small lump near her feet. She nudged it gently with her foot. It growled slightly and then its head rose.
It looked up at Kira and jumped up to her open arms. It was a baby wolf. It got abandon by its mother and ended up in her home less than a week ago. The pup licked her face which always made her laugh.
Kira went to her room and thought she was safe now, but little did she know that there were others in her home. She lay down on her bed with the little pup and started to stroke it softly.
“I should really give you a name huh. Hum, how about Shadow.” said Kira to the pup.
The pup barked excitedly and the started to lick her again. Then some men entered the room.
“Aww, isn't that sweet boy. The little lady has a little pet.” said a man.
Kira sat up to look at the man. Her eyes narrowed as she knew him.
“Why won't the bastard take a hint?” Kira asked irritated.
“It's because the master knows what he wants and isn't afraid to keep chasing after in.” said the man.
