~{She rolled over and caught his lips with hers, after breaking the kiss off she whispered back to him. "Thank you Sess-chan. I love you." She rolled back over and closed her eyes again.
"And I you." He laid next to her listening to everyone breathing. When he was sure everyone was asleep, he slipped out from behind Kagome. He went over to her bag and grabbed a shirt from it, also neatly placing a note in its place.
Walking over to the sleeping hanyou he wrapped his hand in Kagome's shirt. He carefully removed Inu Yasha's sword from his side. After getting the sword he walked over to Kagome. He bent down and unclasped the necklace, the secured it in on of the folds in his armor. With that he was gone, taking with him the two items and Jaken.}~
Now on with the story....
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
Kagome looked up to see Sesshoumaru smile wickedly at her. He took a step towards her, her legs moving on their own accord out of fear, she slowly took one step away from him.
"I have what I came for, you are of no use to me anymore."
She watched as the Tetsusaiga transformed and before she could blink he was right next to her, the sword raised and ready for the kill. Right before he hit her with the killing blow she screamed, "Inu Yasha!"
She sat up quickly in her make shift bed, a cold sweat drenching her body. 'Only a dream' she thought to herself. Looking over to where she had last seen her love she noticed he wasn't there. Slowly she got to her feet and quietly walked over to where Inu Yasha's sleeping form was propped up against the wall. She looked to his side and noticed that his sword was indeed gone. Her face blanched and tears filled her eyes when she realised what had happened. "Inu Yasha, wake up."
He felt his body being shaken, opening one golden eye he saw Kagome's distraught face. Waking quickly he grabbed her arm with one hand and with the other he grabbed her face trying to keep the eye contact she was desprately trying to break. "What's wrong?" Nothing but her sobs answered him, "Kagome, damn it, stop crying and tell me what is wrong."
Kagome reached up to her neck with her free hand, when she touched where her necklace use to lay she felt nothing but bare skin. She ripped her face away from Inu Yasha's grasp, then threw herself into his chest burrying her face in his clothes. "He used me to get your sword" she said between sobs. "I'm so sorry Inu Yasha."
His body felt like it was on fire from the anger that surged through him. 'That bastard, even after my warning he still hurt her.' While trying to stay calm, he burried his face into her hair and rocked her back and forth desprately trying to sooth away Kagome's tears.
"Kagome-chan, what's wrong?" Sango asked.
Inu Yasha removed his face from her hair and looked up at Sango and Miroku who had now gathered around their upset friend. Not even bothing to answer Sango's question, he dropped his head back down and whispered in Kagome's ear. "Shh, it's not your fault. I am not even upset he took the sword, it is him hurting you I am upset about. I swear to you, Kagome, I will make him pay dearly for what he has done to you." Waving Sango closer, he pried Kagome off of him and passed her to the waiting woman's arms. "Sango, watch her."
Sango took the girl into her arms, nodded to Inu Yasha, and watched as he took off out of the hut. She was still trying to calm Kagome when a little girls voice reached her ears.
"Mommy, where is Sesshoumaru-sama?" Rin asked, her voice muffled from having just woke up.
Kagome went stiff in Sango's arms, her tears drying immediately. 'Oh no, oh no, please don't tell me he abandoned her too' she thought desprately to herself. She felt a tug on her shirt, slowly she turned her head to look at the little girl.
"Mommy?"
"Hai, Rin?" Silently she pleaded with the little girl not to ask the question again, for she knew that she couldn't lie to her.
"Where has Sesshoumaru-sama gone?"
Kagome let go of Sango, and held out her arms for Rin who happily climbed into them. Hugging her and not letting go, she answer the little girl's question. "I'm so sorry Rin, Sesshoumaru has left us."
Rin pushed herself away from Kagome. She looked to her mother, both fear and disbelief in her eyes, her bottom lip began to tremble ever so slightly. "No, Sesshoumaru-sama would never leave Rin behind. He just couldn't!" The dam broke and she started sobbing not even noticing that her mother had took her in her arms again.
Seeing Rin like that enraged Kagome, she wanted revenge for what he had done to not only the little girl but herself as well. She felt her anger continue to build, then something inside her snapped. Standing she set Rin down and picked up her bow and arrows, she turned to the door and slowly made her way to it. Sango went to stop her but quickly ceased her advance when she saw the energy radiating off of her friend.
Inu Yasha returned to the hut just as Kagome was about to walk out. "What the fuck, Kagome, I know you're not going out there now." Inu Yasha's face went from angry to scared when she turned to look at him. The look in her eyes and the Miko energy that was coming off her body was enough to silence him.
"Inu Yasha, it would be best if you let her be." Miroku said. "Right now I don't think she will be able to tell you from Sesshoumaru."
Just as she was about to walk out the door she heard Rin ask something and it made her stop.
"Who will take care of Rin now?" her sobs still coming forth.
Inu Yasha turned to the little girl and picked her up. "I will take care of you, and your mother if she allows it." He turned and looked at Kagome, who was half way out the door, and waited for an answer.
She calmed a bit, the energy around her receding a little. Not even turning to look back she smiled and answered him. "Thanks, Inu Yasha, but first I must go take care of something." With that she dissapeared out the door.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~*
He hadn't gone far, he knew she would come looking for him. He had hid his presence from his brother easily, but from her he knew it was going to be harder, if he could at all. He smiled to himself as he gripped his new sword. 'Let her come, I will rid myself of that filthy human just as I did Rin only this time it will be a more permanent.'
He felt her energy and smiled, 'She is making this easy for me.' He walked out into the clearing and waited for her to come. His smile faded when all traces of her vanished. Sesshoumaru focused on his senses but still couldn't track her down. Then from behind him he heard her speak, almost causing him to jump.
"You're a fool, Sesshoumaru, for hurting so many people and not leaving when you could."
He didn't make a move as she walked around to face him. He took in her features and for the first time since his mother died he felt fear. Her hair was blowing wildly from all the energy that had been released, her body had a glowing pink aura surrounding it and her eyes held no fear. Putting his feelings back into check, he smiled at her, and threw her shirt at her feet. "I believe this is yours."
She didn't even give the shirt a glance as it hit the ground, her eyes never leaving his. "I could have handled the lies you gave me, I could have handled the hurt you put me through. BUT.I.can not.no.will not.handle.you.hurting Rin and Inu Yasha like that." The energy around her flared each time she punctuated each word.
~{You take away
I feel the same
You take away
I feel the same
All the promises you made to me you made in vain
I lost myself inside your tainted smile again}~
He laughed at her, mocking her with it, "You honestly believed I could ever care for a filthy human like Rin and yourself. Kagome, surely you were smart enough to see through my deceit." He looked to one of his claws as he picked imaginary dirt out from underneath it. Making eye contact with her again he smirked. "Oh, but you didn't see it did you?"
She could feel the tears wanting to come to her eyes, the hurt wanting to break through. Her anger was in a battle with her hurt, tearing her apart from the inside. Startling herself, she shouted, "No! I will not let you turn this against me. You betrayed not only me, but everyone who has ever dared to care for you!"
~{Cause you can't feel my ANGER
You can't feel my pain
You can't feel my torment
Driving me insane
I can't fight these feelings they will bring you pain
You can't take away
Make me whole again
I feel betrayed
Stuck in your ways
And you rip me apart
With the brutal things you say
I can't deal with shit anymore
I just look away}~
Sesshoumaru watched as she turned her head from him, he could see the hurt in her eyes. Making his move, he was at her side before she had a chance to dodge. He grabbed her throat and lifted her into the air, "That wasn't a very smart move, turning your eyes from the enemy." He snickered. "Now, this seems very familar. I should have killed you the first chance I had." Before he had a chance to rip out her throat, the energy around Kagome exploded. The next thing he knew he was being thrown away from her. He heard a loud crack sound come from the inside of his body as it connected with a tree.
"No, Sesshoumaru, that is where you are wrong." She said barely above a whisper as she slowly stalked towards him. "The mistake made here is when you decided to use me to hurt my friends. Mark my words, you will pay for what you have done." She watched as his hand went to the sword at his side, surprised that he could handle the sword's rejection. An evil grin spread across her lips, "Go ahead, draw the precious sword that will cost you everything. It will be the first and last time you will ever use it."
~{Cause you can't feel my ANGER
You can't feel my pain
You can't feel my torment
Driving me insane
I can't fight these feelings they bring only pain
You can't take away
Make me whole again
You take away
I feel the same
All these promises
You promised only pain
If you take away
And leave me with nothing again}~
He unsheathed the sword and lunged at her, releasing one of the swords powerful attacks. Seeing nothing but debris, he sheathed the sword. Though dissapointed at how quick the battle went, he smiled. "Well, what did I expect she was merly a human." He turned to walk away when he was once again thrown against a tree.
She walked out of the dust settling around her. A pink shield in the form of a bubble surrounded her form keeping the bits of tree, dirt and grass from touching her. "Who said this was over, bastard?"
He turned to look at her, his anger consumed him. 'I will not be beaten by this filthy creature!' he thought as his eyes turned crimson. Energy and dust blown up by the wind surrounded him. When it cleared he stood there in his true form. His huge white dog form towered over the miko he was going to kill. He licked his lips, readying them for the taste of her blood. Without warning he attacked, but instead of bitting into flesh he bit into air.
"I will not be defeated that easily since my miko powers have been unleashed." She dodged every attack he threw at her, taunting him with her smile. She watched as he came to a stop, panting to catch his breath and cool off. "This is the end, Sesshoumaru." She raised her bow with the arrow ready. "You will have the same fate Inu Yasha had fiftythree years ago, only I will not be as nice as Kikyou." With that she let the arrow fly.
He felt searing heat as the arrow pierced his chest, the force threw him back into a tree. This time he didn't fall to the ground and he felt himself transforming out of his true form. Sesshoumaru went to lunge at her again and growled when he couldn't remove himself from the tree. He grabbed the arrow that had pierced his chest only to have it burn his hand. "What have you done to me, Miko?"
She sauntered up to his pinned form, "I told you what I did." She touched his face and smiled when he pulled it away from her. "Aw, what's wrong? Being defeated by a human getting to you?" She laughed, "Like I said, I will not be as nice as Kikyou was. You will remain awake so you can hear the other demons and humans taunt you about being defeated by me. You will feel everything myself, Rin and Inu Yasha felt with your betrayal ten fold. Only I or my desendants can release you from this tree so I really doubt you will be getting free anytime soon."
She brought her face to his and gave him a chaste kiss on the cheek. "You know, I really loved you. Too bad it had to end this way." Grabbing Inu Yasha's sword, she turned her back on him, as she walked away she called back over her shoulder, "Good bye, Sesshoumaru."
~{'Cause you can't feel my ANGER
You can't feel my pain
You can't feel my torment
Driving me insane
I can't fight these feelings they will bring you pain
You can't take away
Make me whole again
You will feel my anger
You will feel my pain
You will feel my torment
Driving you insane
I can't fight these feelings they will bring you pain
You won't take away
I'll be whole again}~
Sesshoumaru watched as she walked away, growling. "Miko, release me now!" He growled some more when she didn't even turn back to him. "Kagome!" His screams got louder as she dissapeared through the trees, "KAGOME!"
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~*
When Kagome entered the hut again everyone was awake and waiting for her safe return. Her aura had dissapeared completely and she had her usual smile on, as if nothing ever happened. She smiled and caught Shippo as he lept into her arms.
"Kagome, I was so scared. When Inu Yasha told me that you went to see..."
Kagome cut him off with a kiss to the forhead, "Let's not talk about that, please. I am fine, and let's just say he won't be bothering us anytime soon." She put the kit down and smiled lovingly at his confused look.
Inu Yasha walked up to her and handed her a piece of paper. "I found this in your pack when I was looking for ramen. It is from Sesshoumaru." He jumped slightly when her aura flared up again.
"I don't care to read this." With that she tore up the letter and tossed the pieces into the fire. She grabbed the sword she left outside and handed it to Inu Yasha. "Now let's all finish sleeping, I am tired and need my rest." With that everyone laid down wondering what had become of Sesshoumaru.
