But I hope you will enjoy this new chapter and if something is wrong for you, you know what to do, ne ? :)

 

 

Previously in the chapter 7 :

Kagome realised the last wish of InuYasha : repare one of his error and regrow the left arm of his demon lord of brother. She used a lot of power and pass out from exaustion…

 

 

Chapter 8 :

Awakening

 

Slowly a young raven-haired woman open her eyes. They are immediatly assault by a violent light. She moans in displeasure, close them again and put her head under the sheet.

 

After a moment, her head emmerge again. She yawn and stretch her body like a cat. All her muscle seems sore, like if she run a marathon or didn't sleep since a long long time. Slowly, her eyes adjusted themself at the light. She is puzzled. She is in a bed but it is certainly not her bed. It is bigger and more close to the ground but really comfortable the only thing is that it is absolutely not her bedroom !

 

She rubs her eyes like a little kid raise in a sitting position. Her muscles complain viciously making her groan again. She starts to take a look at her surrounding. Yes she is certainly not in her room. This one is a luxious one with beautiful painting on the walls.

 

At this moment, still groggy by her sleep, she feels an aura, a powerful demonic aura really close to her. She turns her head and gasps and jump from the surprise. Here, on a chair close to her bed, wait patiently a youkai.

 

« Good to see you awaken, Kagome-sama »

 

« mm…Thank you Lady of the North »

 

She move her nose in distaste « No, please, call me Kira »

 

« Ok Kira-sama. » She rubs her eyes again before adds « Why are you here ? And what here is exactly ? »

 

Kira laugh lightly « I waited that you wake up Kagome-sama, of course. You are in your chamber reserved for your stay here in the Western Lands. Do you remember what happened ? »

 

Kagome reflect a moment and her eyes shoot open wild « It's worked…I succeed, right ? »

 

The youkai chuckle « Yes, you succeed to regrow the arm of Sesshomaru-sama. Quite impressive I can say. »

 

Kagome blush.

 

« Oh and your kit had just left because I assured him that I will keep an eye on you so he can go eat something. You afraid him quite a lot, like all of us. He will be so happy to see you awaken. »

 

Kagome eyed the woman « I was out a long time ? »

 

« More than a week, Kagome-sama. That's why we were so worried. »

 

« One week !!! Oh god »

 

The Lady of the Northern Lands lower her eyes to look at her lap, moving her fingers nerviously. That don't pass un noticed by Kagome

 

« Kira-sama ? »

 

She look at the Miko in the eyes « I know that…But I would like to ask you something Kagome-sama »

 

« Sure »

 

« How…how do you do that ? That seems to be dangerous »

 

« I don't really know Kira-sama. It's just…InuYasha said that I could do it. That I could repare one of his mistakes even if that was the only thing that save us. Or Sesshomaru would have kill both of us that day.

I trained with Kaede for the concentration and to try to `stock' the maximum of power necessary for that during the last two weeks before I came here. Even if she said that her power level is not like mine (she blush) she was about to help me, to advice me.

But this kind of technique is really dangerous for the Miko because when the power start to be used for heal you can't stop until you finish and if the Miko don't have enough power, they are all taken and that can kill the Miko if it is not enough. It was possible to heal him that way because he is a youkai, a really powerful one…In fact I just feed his youki with the energy necessary to accelerate his natural healing. It is because he is already really powerful that I was able to help.»

 

« I understand now… But you don't have to blush, Kagome-sama. I never see so much power in all my life in a human »

 

That make Kagome flush even more. Kira laugh.

 

At this moment, a knock can be hear at the door.

 

« I leave you prepare. (she raise) I see you in the diner room Kagome-sama »

« Kira-sama »

That stops the youkai who turn around to face the Miko

« You know, you can call me just Kagome »

 

She smile.

 

« And you can do the same with me, Kagome. »

 

Kagome smile in return « Thank you Kira-chan »

 

The smile grow wider in the face of the Lady and she exit the room.

 

At the door frame, stand another youkai, a servant.

 

« Hi my Lady (when the Lady of the North is out ). I will be your personal servant during your stay here »

 

« Please call me Kagome, not my Lady »

 

« I can't…Lady Kagome. I have orders »

 

« Ok. I wouldn't make Sesshomaru hungry at you because you don't follow his orders. I'm sorry »

 

« Thank you, Kagome-sama »

 

The servant stay without a word starring at the young woman, a human, who speak about her Lord without the honorific This human must be special if my Lord leave her speak of him like that. Nobody are allowed to speak like that, not even the others Lords…

 

« Something wrong ? »

 

« No, no, I'm sorry Kagome-sama it's just that I was surprised that you don't add the honorific when you speak about my Lord, even when he is not in the room. »

 

« Oh mm… I never use it with him in the three years that I know him. It's a long story but to make short, he lost that right with me with what he do to InuYasha the first time I met him and when he throw his poison at me »

 

Kagome blush a little and laugh nerviously when she see the shock face of the servant

« Like I said it is a long story »

 

« So you really are the powerful Miko who travelled with my half-brother's Lord, the Hanyou ? »

 

« mm…yes. » she respond shyly, still blushing

 

The servant stare still amazing at the young woman in from of her. The youkai finally break the uneasy silence

 

« I have prepared a rapid bath in the other room for you and there is Kimonos in the wardrobe when you will end. »

 

the face of Kagome lit up at the idea of a bath and she jump on her feet

 

« Oh thank you, I would love a bath ! »

 

The antic of the miko make the servant chuckle.

 

« But you have to hurry. Lord Sesshomaru really dislike that his guests are late for the meal »

 

Kagome giggle

 

« Something funny Kagome-sama ? »

 

She calm down « Sorry. It's just that at the origin I'm not really a guest here. I almost had to break the front door to come in. »

 

The servant smile lightly « I heard that Kagome-sama. But you are Lord Sesshomaru's guest now. Do you want me to come to help you for your bath ? »

 

« No it's ok , thank you »

After her really quick bath, Kagome come back in her room to found the servant sitting on a chair, waiting for her.

 

When she came in, the servant get up

 

« Kagome-sama, I choose this kimono for you. »

 

She take the cloth from the bed and show it to the Miko. It's a beautiful silky kimono, in a dark green with lighter embroisements.

Kagome stay froze, mouth wide open. The servant take that the wrong way and panic a little

« But if you don't like it I can… »

 

« No, no, I…I never see or wear a kimono so beautiful in my life. You sure I have the right to wear something like that ? I mean… »

 

« Of course you can Kagome-sama. The kimonos in the wardrobe are all for you »

 

« You sure ? I mean I don't wear that kind of thing usually and … »

 

« Don't worry Kagome-sama. I'm sure that you will be perfect in it. But we really have to hurry up `cause the meal will be serve in a few minutes »

 

« Ok…Oh and can I ask you your name, please ? »

 

The servant look at her Usually the women I have to serve didn't care what is my name, they just order me around.They are not kind like her. The only thing they want is to end in my Lord bed, but this one is really different. How a human can be so friendly with a youkai ? She is really special…

 

« Of course Kagome-sama. My name is Yusomi. »

 

Kagome smile sweetly at her « I'm glad to have meet you, Yusomi-san »

 

A through pass in the mind of the youkai Really different, indeed. Easy to like…

 

They finish to dress and make the hair of Kagome.

After that, Yusomi lead Kagome at the room. Kagome is a little nervious and the youkai can feel it at her aura.

She is in front of the close door, taking deep breathes.

 

« Are you ok, Kagome-sama ? »

 

« Yeah, I'm just a little nervous »

 

« You don't have to be nervous Kagome-sama, you are really beautiful »

 

She blush « Thank you, Yusomi-san »

The servant smile

« I have to go back to my work »

 

« Ok, see you later, Yusomi-san. »

 

The servant bow her head and take her leave, leaving Kagome stressed like never in front of the door.

She take a deep breath and open the door.

After all, she already know what is on the other side of this door, right ? She met all of them when she arrived there.

 

She come in. She just enter the room that all the eyes turn towards her. And you can acknowledge that some jaws fall on the floor.

 

« Hi » she said with a really shoft and timid voice.

 

Even Sesshomaru, the ice prince, have to admit that for a mere human she is really stunny and the way she spoke didn't help at all. But he shook his head to erase this idea really rapidly. He growl at himself. His inner beast seems to like a little too much what it see. He even have difficulties to calm his body to not react. If his guests around the table could smell his growing arousal for a human that should be the worst insult and humiliation for Sesshomaru. Him, the powerful Lord of the Western Lands lusting for a human ! He can't understand why he react like that. Why his beast react at all. She is only a human for kami sake. More disturbing he is not the only one : he can say that all the male youkais around the table and even the two guards behind him react too, more or less powerfully, at her in front of them.

 

Kagome can feel all the glances on her .

She don't dare to move, blushing crissom.

When she dare to raise her eyes from the ground, they fall directly on Sesshomaru, the end of the table. During a little second, she could have swear that she saw emotions flash in her eyes. She blush even more and lower her glance.

 

Sesshomaru is disturbing because the surprise of seing her like that exited him. But his youkai don't seem to appreciate that he is not the only one, that others males in the place, already mated or not, react too. Some of them don't have control like him or hide the effect this human have on them. This must be the fact that she is so powerful, she shown her power to them when she regrown his arm and she is beautiful too. Even Sesshomaru have to admit that but he will never say it out loud. The combinaison of that with the fact that she wear more…appropriate clothes must be the reasons.

 

At least, there is not only horny youkais around the table. Shippo and Rin come out of the table and run towards her, cutting short the seance of drowling

 

« Kagome ! » « Kagome-sama ! »

 

She bend down so that she can take them two in her arms

 

« I'm glad to see you two too »

 

« Kagome-same is really beautiful » Rin said with a big smile on her face

 

« She is right Kagome, you are really stunny dress like that » add Shippo

 

She flush furiously « Thank you Shippo-chan, Rin-chan »

After giving a kiss at each of them she take them by the hand and walk again towards the table. When she reach it

 

« The children are right, you are really beautiful, right Kouga ? »

 

That make the poor wolf come back to the reality with a light blush on his cheeks but he can't articulate anything much than « hm hm.. » shaking his head. It is all he is able to do.

 

That make Kagome flush even more. She take the free place between the children and the Lady of the North.

 

« There is nothing to be ashamed of, Kagome-chan. It is the reality, and if you want to know, since you can't smell it, every of this gentlemen without exception think the same thing. »

 

Kagome look at her, totally puzzled

The Lady of the Northern Lands giggles at the face of the innocent miko. She make a sign that she come close and whisper at her ear, but loud enough so the youkai here can hear it.

She explain to her what she meaned by smell that the males around the table appreciate her beauty too in this kimono.

 

Kagome's face become all white, eyes wide open. She adds that if the table wasn't there, she could see it too.

Kagome turn even more pale, mouth open and she lower her head and turn red like she never in all her life. She is so embarassed that if she could, she would have disappear.

Kira look at her and can't restreign herself and laugh making kagome lower again her head

Kira feel a little guilty so she try to ease the miko

 

« I already say it to you, Kagome-chan, there is absolutly nothing to be ashamed of. You are a really beautiful woman and you can make turn pale a lot of women youkai. Men have just a praticuliar way to react and it is not with words. »

She laugh like mad and Ayame join her.

The two others women in another hand, don't appreciate at all that hers mates are aroused just by seing the youg miko with clothes that all the demoness and others wear. A simple kimono in silk which is good on her but still. They glare at their mates who are uneasy.

 

Kagome wear the dark green kimono with her hair up with traditional japonese slides. She don't wear makeup. Nothing extravagant but this kimono show all her curves that she had all in the right place. That hightlight all her beautiful petite form.

 

The rest of the meal pass more or less in silence, at least in the case of Kagome, too embarassed to even open her mouth.

After a moment :

 

« Kagome-sama, can we go play outside now ? » ask hopefully the little girl

 

To Say that Sesshomaru was take aback is an understatement. HIS ward was asking one of his guest, InuYasha's wench if she can get up and go play and not at HIM ! Something happened and he was not aware or what ?

 

For the first time that they are at the table, Kagome raise her glance. Her eyes pass rapidly on the plates of the two children and towards the demon Lord.

They look at each other during a moment before he shake affirmatively his head once. At least, she didn't take the decision herself. In fact, she was surprised too that Rin would ask her and not her Sesshomaru-sama.

 

Kagome smile shyly at him and average rapidly her eyes, the comments of Kira still fresh in her mind. She flush a little and get up, looking at the children. They understand the message and scream with joy and go out of the table.

 

Rin come at Sesshomaru and hug him rapidly and run toward Kagome who take her hand, like Shippo's, walking to exit the room.

 

The children speak happily. They seem to be really excited that the miko is on her feet again and that she will play with them. Kirara was waiting outside the door for them.

Kagome can feel eyes on her until she reach the door. Even Sesshomaru himself had follow all her movements with big attention…like most of them. But no one seems to have see the son of the South, literally drooling, a light in his eyes and a smirk on his face. < AN : That make him really creepy, but you will understand more more later ;) >

When the door close behind the young woman, Kira turn toward Ayame : « I think that we embarass her. May be I shouldn't have speak about… »

 

« Don't worry Lady Kira, she will be fine. She is just really young and still really innocent and pure, beside all she had saw the past few years and apparently unaware of her body still »

 

Kira look at Kouga who still have his eyes glossy. She chuckle a little before tell :

« Prince Kouga, I think all this gentlemen understand better now, beside her power, why you have wished to have her as your mate. »

 

He blush lightly.

 

« I hope my coments didn't embarass you » she said, looking at Ayame

 

The wolf smile « No, not at all. I have, since a long time now, accept like an evidence the rarety of someone like Kagome humans and youkais alike. Like most of us in this place, I hate humans but I feel honored to have a friend such as her. Someone so soft and loyal. (She paused before add ) She is the first person I saw in all my life who combine the four qualities at such level »

 

« The four qualities, which are ? »

 

« Beauty, intelligence, sweetness and power, combinate perfectly and when you look at how she is with children…She will be a perfect mate. »

 

« Yeah, I must to agree. Plus, what make her unique is her faculty to not see youkais, hanyous or humans, but persons, without distictions. You just have to take a look at how a young human, worst a miko, adopt a young kitsune youkai like he was her own blood. When I rethink about the video, I understand what the humans wanted to say when they said that she changed them and that she was the reason of their envy to fight and their union. »

 

Ayame shook her head and add

 

« Yes, but sometimes her character afraid me »

 

« Always yelling and attacking with not acknowledge of who is the person in front of her, just because she do or say something she didn't like ? » he asked that, rising an eye brown, a little thing of teasing in his deep voice

 

The two women, joined by Kouga glare at him which make him smirk interiorly

 

« Even if she can be feisty one, that's not at all what I wanted to say, Lord Sesshomaru. She is too kind for her own good » (Ayame)

 

He rise again an eye brown

 

« Don't make this face, Sesshomaru-sama, you know exactly what she want to say » (Kira)

 

« Really ? »

 

« Hai. You just had for an example to watch yourself. How many time did you try to kill her ? Surely too many to count. Two years it is a long time, ne ? (with a smirk) but she came here, in your own house where she know there is only youkais, to propose her help and help to regrow you left arm. »

 

« May be she is just silly » He muse, really aware of what would be the reaction

 

This time he can't hide the smirk which grow on his lips when he receive more glares

 

« No, Sesshomaru-sama, I think that my mate want to say is that she forgive easily and even with all that happened she still can see the good in everyone. Even in you, it seems that she can see something…amazing, isn't it ? » The lord og the North, teasing his old friend

 

Sesshomaru send him a glare and an icy glance. That make Kira smile quietly

 

« And for your other commentary, even if I don't know her since a long time, I admit that she have character and even surprisingly a lot for a human. So yes she yell a lot like she don't need a lot to make her angry and it is the same to make her blush or surely as to make her happy. The little we saw in the videos was enough to illustrate it. You just have to look at this InuYasha. It's seems that they passed a lot of time screaming at each others, etc…And from what the little kitsune said to me, he made her suffer quite a lot with that Kikyo girl and beside that she stayed by his side, defending him fiercely in battle like all the people she concidered like friends. »

 

« Yeah, she always protected mutt… I mean InuYasha and separe us when we faught, sitting him…So that I don't kill him of course » crossing his arms in front of him, remembered a certain hanyou

 

 «Yeah…I think it was more to not letting him attack you » Said his mate

 

He send to her a dark glare.

 

« But I would have adore to be there and see your face, Sesshomaru-sama when this human came between you and the hanyou for stopping you for killing him, calling you a baka and others names. (Hiro smile) I dream of being there, plus knowing that she do that more than once, I'm fascinated. »

 

He can't stay calm and laugh like mad, making Sesshomaru really angry. Seing his mistake, he try to calm his old friend down.

 

« Excuse me, Sesshomaru-sama (shaking his hands in front of him for his defense) but you can admit she must be the only creature alive who had said something like that and still be alive to be able to relate it. »

 

« Ideed. »

It was the only answer Sesshomaru gave before getting up and quit the table and the room.

 

If the Lord of the North wasn't an old friend, and a friend of his father, He would have separate his head from his body for make fun of him.
