InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Secret Portal ❯ Chapter 2: The Western Lands ( Chapter 2 )

Disclaimer: Though I do not own InuYasha, I do own Jessica.

 

AN- sorry that the last chapter was so short, but I needed to end it there. I'll try and come up with another chapter to post up real soon.

 

She was in a in someone's bed, but who's? The room didn't belong to any of her friends, and they didn't know that she went to retrieve ball ether. Her vision was blurred at first, but as she slowly look around at her surrounding, it became clearer. There was a young girl, no older then 14, setting beside the bed looking at her oddly. The young girl had dark brown hair that came down to the middle of her back, and part of it was pulled back with a hair tie.

 

She wore a kimono that had the pattern of bubbles that were yellow and red. The door slowly began to open and a man walked in. his face was covered in shadows, but he was very tall. His long silver hair, which went past his waist, moved elegantly as we walked. He had two maroon strips on both sides of his cheek.

 

He wore white hakama with a white and red top that had a flower patter on the shoulders and sleeves. Around his waist was a yellow and purple sash that was tied some-what loosely. He wore black armor that covered his chest and hung loosely down his legs and sliver armored spike protection that went across his right arm. There were two swords that hung on his waist, and there was a fluffy boa looking thing hanging from his left shoulder. As the man came closer, she slowly sat up to look at the man who stair at her with expressionless golden eyes.

 

The young girl quickly grabbed the covers and wrapped them around her. When she looked down, she noticed that she was naked, and that the man was still staring at her. She quickly grabbed the cover to hide herself, thought he had already saw her. The man was still staring at her with unchanged eyes, and she began to blush. The young girl stood and bowed to the man and smiled happily as she said, “Lord Sesshomaru, I have watched her as you asked.”

 

He walked closer and patted her on the head while saying nothing and still staring at her. “You may leave now Rin.” said Sesshomaru in a deep voice. Rin nodded and left the room cheerfully, but she looked back right before she shut the door. Once Rin had left, she felt nervous and even shyer. She held the cover tightly against her and wondered what he was going to do as he stared at her with no emotion in his eyes.

 

“What's your name?” asked Sesshomaru. “M-my name is J-Jessica.” she said shyly while not looking at him. The longer he looked at her, the more she wished she could hide behind something and blushed more. His hand softly, yet firmly, lifted her face towards him. She looked into his golden eyes and became entranced by them even if they were cold and distant.

 

The next thing she knew, she had wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. It wasn't until the door opened and shut again that she realized what she had done. She let go of him and wrapped the covers around her quickly and looked away form him. “I-I'm sorry.” said Jessica blushing madly. The person who had opened the door was now standing beside Sesshomaru.

 

She had a robe in her hand, and Sesshomaru left the room unaffected by what had just occurred. The servant waited for the door to close, and then she asked Jessica to stand up. The first thing she put on Jessica was the Shatsu, which was a t-shit that was worn under a kimono. Then she put on the rest of the layers of the kimono, and this one had soda (long billowing sleeve) that covered her hands. The kimono looked quite expensive.

 

It was blue and green with butterflies here and there, and a silver obi that was tied in a bow in the back. Once Jessica was dressed properly, the servant led her through the halls and to a room that had so many people in it, that you could hear them talking from outside in the hall ways. The servant opened the door and waited for her to enter before she shut it behind her. She stood there for a moment and looked around, and every one looked up at her. Her long black hair and icy blue eyes seemed to catch everyone's attention.

 

She held her hands together in front of her, and then she spotted Rin talking to a toad-like creature. The toad like creature looked over at her and went up to her. Then he took her hand and led her to a seat at the large table. She kept her eyes low except for when she would occasionally look up at Rin who sat opposite of her. Soon the room was quite as someone else entered the room.

 

Jessica didn't even have to look to know it was Sesshomaru, and she striated her back and stiffed slightly as she realized that the seat beside her and Rin was the only one left. When he sat down, Jessica looked up at him slightly, and he gave her a small cocky smile. She returned her gaze back to the table and began to blush. Sesshomaru snapped his fingers and servants began to brig trays of food. Once they left, Sesshomaru told everyone to enjoy themselves. Rin was glaring at Jessica by now, till Sesshomaru turned his attention to her.

 

Then she was all cheerful and smiling. Jessica slowly began to eat the food that was in front of her, she didn't know how many days it had been, and she was hungry. After the meal was over, the toad-like creature led Rin and Jessica out of the room. Jessica found him very weird, yet didn't think such a creature could exist. Once they were out of the dinning room, Rin rushed off.

 

Jessica could tell that Rin didn't want to be near her, and that she shouldn't go back into the dinning room. With no one in sight, she began to wonder the halls looking for someone to talk to. Eventually, she found her way to the garden, but she hadn't seen anyone the whole time. She walked through the flowers for a while and looked at all the different types trying to pass the time. Then she went back inside and went walking down the halls again.

 

The next place she found was a wide open field. It was very peaceful here, and there was a nice breeze blowing, so she decided to stay out here for a while. She sat on a high rock wall that came up to her waist so that she wouldn't get the kimono too dirty. The warm breeze blew her hair slightly, as she scanned the area. It seemed like hours had passed since she came out here, and soon, she began to fall asleep on the wall.

 

Not too many minutes had passed, and she thought she was being lifted. When she opened her eyes, Sesshomaru had her held in him arms. She began to blush as he noticed that she had awakened, and he stopped walking. He smirked at her and asked, “is this how I'm going to find you from now on?” At first she was confused by the question, but then she realized that it must had been him who found her.

 

He was looking at her as she said, “t-thank you for helping me.” He put her down now that she was fully awake, and she was looking off, any where but at him. “M-may I ask you something?” asked Jessica. When he didn't say anything, she asked, “where a-am I?” He wasn't surprised by this question and smirked as he leaned in closer to her face with his hand under her chin so that she would look at him. “You're at my house in the Western lands.” said Sesshomaru with a smirk.
