InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Thunder, Lightening: The Quiet Resolution of a Fire Maiden ❯ Interpreting Dreams Reality Sucks Sometimes ( Chapter 3 )

Disclaimer: Read Chapter Two the whole Things I do NOT own list. Yes I meddled with this chapter as well… Interpreting Dreams and Dreams and Reality are now ONE. Well they both kind of were murdered and molded into my sick pleasurable design… Please still love me. I liked the dialog betwixt Sango and Kagome and yes there will be dialog just different. Well some of the phrases are the same. Sango's paranoia is still there.

 

Interpreting Dreams: Reality Sucks Sometimes

 

Kagome awoke in her bedroom pasted with an unhealthy coat of sweat. It was a dream! It was a dream the entire thing was a dream. It felt so real though. She could still `feel' his lips. Oh kami, why did it have to be a dream? Kagome got up and looked in the mirror. Kagome's ears were lengthened and pointed, her fingers became were longer, and she was taller. Her hair was completely auburn with white skunk stripes and her once cobalt eyes where now resembling the sky's hue of blue and red, silted pupils too. The nails on her fingertips were harder while longer, claws. At five feet eleven inches, she knew she would not fit in to modern Japan. She wasn't human anymore. She refused to look into the mirror, again. Her mind went back to her dream and that made her upset.

 

“IT WAS A BLOODY DREAM!!”

 

Kagome screamed at the top of her lungs, scaring the shit out of everyone in the vicinity and pissing off a large Taiyoukai who was currently brooding in a corner like all good Taiyoukais do. He was unable to rest in this foreign place for fear of something to happen to him whilst he slept. Sesshoumaru headed towards the bitch that startled him plotting how many he would kill her before he got sick of homicide. Which could very well be a millennium of the tedious death and rebirth cycle, she'd be a rather bored phoenix.

 

“Do you wish to die now or later, wench?”

 

“Fuck you Spike.”

 

“Who is Spike?”

 

At her answer the Lord of the Western Lands rolled his eyes. Women were so obnoxious, but what was her dream about. He was not going to ask but he was still curious. Souta the annoying one's brother entered the room to figure out what could have possibly happened to his sister.

 

“What was the dream about?”

 

“Umm, well the dream was about us defeating Naraku.”

 

She was lying. He knew it. He smelled it. She was lying through her teeth. What was that dream about that she felt the need to lie. Kagome's mother entered the room with some tea.

 

“Here Kagome drink this, it'll calm your nerves.”

 

“But Momma my nerves are fine.”

 

“Not when you almost made me pee myself they aren't.”

 

Kagome obediently drank the tea she was offered. She had to go back to the Feudal Era today. She just had to; there was no time to waste, so what if everyone looked at her funny. She did not care that she was, for lack of a better word, a freak.

 

“Momma, I have to go back today. There's so much more to be done. It's impossible to just up and leave. I'll be back soon though, I promise!”

 

“You, you are always coming and going. It's almost like I don't even have a daughter anymore.”

 

“I'm sorry momma.”

 

Kagome felt bad but duty came first, right? Right, wrong, right… right? With that Kagome along with Lord of the High Strung Dog Demons of the West headed outside to the well house. The illicit well house that got her into this monstrous mess to begin with, if she could she would have burned it down a long time ago. There was no need for that anymore she was in too far into the shit to pull herself out even with the aid of Router Rooter. The odd couple arrived in Feudal Japan to a scene of somewhat hap hazardous chaos. Sango was chasing after Miroku with a giant flaming torch, yelling something about his lascivious mannerisms. They immediately ceased their flirting to stare at the new comers. Sango was shocked to say the least.

 

“What in seven hells happened to you?”

 

“Well you see there was this thing my father did way back in the day and it was sparked by a certain inu youkai's interference because of a certain hanyou's ill temper. SO now, I'm at a total loss. I'm a fucken freak and I know it.”

 

“Kagome, you are not a freak. You're my best friend.”

 

“Well I'm not so much the Kagome you once knew.”

 

“Yes but change must be accepted we must adapt to it. For if we do not then it will destroy us.”

 

“Whoa Sango that was deep, really intellectual.”

 

“Miroku, DO NOT TOUCH MY ASS! THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING MONK!”

 

“We should actually do something productive for the rest of the day at least, right?”

 

“I agree Kagome do you wish to continue your sword fighting or do you want to go to the hot spring instead?”

 

“I think a little training and then a nice hot bath is in order.”

 

“Great thinking… we should not get bathed and then sweaty it would be a waste.”

 

“Yes I also agree on this,” was Miroku's response to the conversation he obviously was not a part of.

 

“Miroku you are such a fucken lecher!”

 

“Kagome-sama how could you make such an assumption! I am a pious monk, here only to serve the will of—”

 

Miroku's speech of his piety was interrupted by a sharp slap to the head by Sango.

 

“Miroku shut the hell up,” was Kagome's exclamation.

 

Sango and Kagome continued their arduous training; they were running laps around the tiny village. Quickly enough they finished their ten laps of `loosing up' and each went off for their individual practice. Kagome went off to be battered by Sesshoumaru; his `training' always involved a much bruised Kagome. After being beaten by Sesshoumaru, Kagome and Sango went to the adjacent hot spring to wash away their sweat and worries.

 

“So how does it feel like?”

“How does what feel like Sango?”

“Being well, whatever it is you are.”

“Oh that. Well I don't feel much different. I'm alright I guess but then again not much has happened for me to notice a difference.”

“Yes nothing yet.”

“Yep, want to go back now?”

“Wait, before we go there's something I wanted to bring to your attention.”

“What is it Sango?”

 

Kagome adjusted herself to attentively listen to her best friend and adopted sister talk. She was now turned in her direction. Sango's brows furrowed in concentration, whatever she had to say must be important.

 

“Kagome, have you noticed anything?”

“Anything like?”

 

Sango was impressed by how dense her friend could really be.

 

“Like the attitude of a certain person.”

 

“Hmm, are you talking about who I think you are talking about?”

 

“That depends, is it a youkai?”

 

“As a matter of fact it is.”

 

“Well then, we are.”

 

“Great to know we're on the same page.”

 

“Haven't you noticed his looks?”

 

“He has looks?”

 

“Hai, very indiscreet, barely noticeable but I've noticed. I've been studying said person for awhile, trying to figure out said person's motives.”

 

“And you have concluded that?”

 

“He wants you, Kagome. He has since I believe the very beginning.”

 

“Why didn't you tell me sooner?”

 

“Because it's a huge headache trying to get some privacy around these people. Even now I bet that Miroku is probably lurking about trying to sneak a peek.”

 

“Ha-ha, I'll bet any amount of money that he is.”

 

“I would too.”

 

“So what do I do now?”

 

“Well it all depends. Do you like this person?”

 

“He is rather intriguing.”

 

“Well then allow him to know that.”

 

“Yea okay, like it's that easy. Do you remember who we are talking about or should I refresh your memory?”

 

“Let's get out of here, I heard a branch snap.”

 

“Miroku… such a lecher.”

 

“I know.”

 

Kagome and Sango scrambled out of the hot spring and manage to get their clothing on in a mere few seconds. They then made their way back to the village to rest for reminder of the night. The night went on in sheer darkness. Kagome had a dreamless night of relaxation. Dawn came and the morning birds were singing their little hearts out. She awoke earlier than she had intended; she began to think back to her dream and began to become frustrated with herself.

 

“Ohayo, doggie-sama, where is your brother?”

 

“Insolent wench, he went to screw around with that undead miko.”

 

“Kikyou, whatever, it's his sleep not mine. Not that I'll be able to go back to sleep anytime soon. Goddamn dream, thought it actually happened.”

 

Kagome wondered just when she fell asleep. She was going to have to ask someone, hopefully not the brooding Taiyoukai. Maybe Souta would know? She turned and saw that Sango was getting her gear on. Perfect. Kagome arose slowly, as to not wake her son; she made her way to her best friend's side.

 

“Eh, Sango?”

 

“Hai?”

 

“What are you going to do?”

 

“I was going to patrol some. Come with me, I want to speak to you privately and he can still hear us,” the last part was said in a hushed whisper. The two young adults made their way towards the woods. Kagome slapped herself avidly to make sure she wasn't dreaming and she wasn't.

 

“Kagome tell me exactly what happened to you in your world.”

 

“Well Inu-Yasha came there was a fight, I got hurt, and the injury made my transformation move rapidly, it wasn't supposed to happen until after my birthday. Then Sesshoumaru out of fear of me dying gave me his blood to save me, I passed out woke up and came here.”

 

“Anything else, there seems to be something that is bothering you?”

 

“Damn you Sango and your intuitiveness! Your right, I had this dream and it's been grating on my nerves.”

 

“What was the dream about?”

 

“Sesshoumaru.”

 

“Oh, I can see why you would dream about him.”

 

“What do you mean Sango?”

 

“I'll tell you later he's eavesdropping.”

 

“Oh, well then I really shouldn't tell you the dream.”

 

Sesshoumaru was irritated by the tajiya, damn her and her meddling ways. How could she blow his cover, he wanted to know what the damn dream was about, especially since he was in it. He needed to know what that dream was and he did not know exactly why he needed to know. He would find out sooner or later, after all he was a selfish man and he got what he wanted no matter what stood in the way.

 

"I'm scared Sango. I'm scared that the people I care for will abandon me, Sango."

 

"Kagome, we won't leave you. Why would you think something like that?"

 

"It's part of what's happened to me. I think it also has something to do with the jewel!"

 

Sesshoumaru had now masked his aura and was listening quite intently to their conversation. He knew that with her change came different abilities but what were they? How could he find out?

 

“Shhh!”

 

"What?”

 

“I think he left, but I'm not sure. Either that or he's hiding himself.”

 

"Higurashi, Kagome." Even though he wanted to know, he knew it would be wrong for him to find out this way. After all he wanted her to trust him. Kagome and Sango jumped at the sultry baritone voice, Sesshoumaru had scared the royal shit out of both of them. "Your kit is looking for you."

 

"No he is not, I left him sleeping, what are you playing at?" Kagome strode over to the mighty Western Lord and jabbed a finger into his chest. "Where is Rin by the way?"

 

"She is with the other 'miko's' sister." Did Kagome hear sarcasm and slight resentment towards Kikyou coming from Sesshoumaru? Yes, yes she did. "Why do you ask bitch? Do you not believe that this Sesshoumaru is capable of keeping track of an eleven year old ningen?"

 

"Humph! I'm surprised you can even keep track of yourself let alone a little girl. I'm going to Shippou and so help you god that he is truly in need of me, if he isn't you will be one sorry daemon."

 

Did she threaten him?! He, Lord of the Western Lands, yes she did. Oh that bitch is going to pay.

 

"Listen here bitch; know your goddamn place before I kill you for your insubordinate attitude." Kagome did an about face and went to Shippou who was indeed looking for her.

 

"Mommy, I can't sleep. Why do you smell like Sesshoumaru?"

 

"I got into an argument with him. Come here, sit on my lap." Shippou did as he was told. "I have something to tell you." Kagome looked around Inu-Yasha was not there, he was with Kikyo. Feh, whatever, and Miroku had wandered off since her screaming. "My transformation isn't done and I really don't know what I am."

 

"It's okay, you're still my mommy." Kagome began to cry, that was what she feared the most, losing her son. Sesshoumaru stood silently watching and the demon exterminator held her weapon of choice, Hiraikotsu, waiting for what was to come. She knew Sesshoumaru heard them, the look in his eyes told her. No matter how stoic he was, he always had a special look for Kagome. She took notice of this several times but did not mention it to her best friend. The time was now; at least that is when Sesshoumaru was not lurking about them. "Mommy, why are you crying?"

 

"I was afraid of not being accepted. I was trying to avoid the topic completely by training harder but the time came. I tried to tell at least you and Sango before it happened but it did and I was scared that neither of you would still love me, but you do."

 

Sesshoumaru. Why couldn't that dream be the reality of things?

 

Sesshoumaru hated it when anyone cried and before him knew what he was doing; he knelt beside the miko and brushed away her tears. Her eyes were so beautiful, so full of life and joy, yet they would weep. She was an enigma to him, a puzzle he had to solve. He was not going to let that idiot of a brother destroy something so radiant. Sesshoumaru drew his hand away only to have it caught by her tiny one.

 

"Sesshoumaru?" Had she seen compassion in his eyes, even so it was just for a moment before the mask returned. He let out a small growl, for her to get the hint and let go. "Thank you... I know you know."

 

When she said that it felt as if Buddha himself fell from the sky to land upon him, his face faltered, how did she? Know?

 

Inu-Yasha returned that morning around ten in the morning to find an annoyed Sango, a battered Miroku, a still sleeping Kouga, a perturbed Jakken chasing after a hyper Rin, a large pissed off Taiyoukai and a changed Kagome…

 

“Kagome?”

 

“Hai?”

 

“What the fuck happened to you?”

 

“I changed.”

 

“Well yea that's obvious as fucken hell but into what?”

 

“I was destined to transform into this, and thanks to YOU and your brother meddling with things neither of you should meddle with I was altered into this. Thanks, a lot; it was great of you to do this to me. Make my life a crap load harder than it is.”

 

“Gomen nasai, Kagome.”

 

“Oh fuck you and your apologies.”

 

Kagome left Inu-Yasha where he stood to wake everyone, who was not, up for their ritual of food, practice, getting injured, food, and sleep. She walked straight over to the sleeping form of Kouga and woke him up by kicking him in the ribs. He awoke with a start, staring up at his attacker. His jaw dropped.

 

“Kagome?”

 

“What happened to you?”

 

“Oi vey… go ask Inu-Yasha.”

 

“Okay… but damn girl, you look good. Want to be my woman?”

“No Kouga I do not want to be your woman.”

 

Kagome and the rest of the posse began their day with rigorous training. Kagome's swordsmanship skills had improved greatly since she first fell through the well. Especially since a certain Taiyoukai had taken it upon himself to teach her. Inu-Yasha along with Kouga stood in a distance watching them all prepare themselves for the battle of a lifetime. Inu-Yasha was a bit jealous that his brother was so close to the miko. So he decided to interfere by coming up from behind Sesshoumaru to disarm him.

 

“What do you think you are doing half-breed?”

 

Sesshoumaru gracefully spun on his heel capturing Inu-Yasha's arm in his hand.

 

“Nothing you fucking asshole. Why don't you lighten up Sesshoumaru and maybe even remove the tree that is rammed up your ass?”

 

Inu-Yasha snatched his arm and hand away from his brother's grasp.

 

“Inu-Yasha can you for once in your life behave, we unlike you are taking Naraku seriously. For all we know he can end up slaughtering us all and here you are acting like a jealous puppy. Grow up and leave us train.”

 

“Shut up! Stupid wench,” Inu-Yasha said the latter in more of a whisper than anything. He knew that the priestess would sit him in oblivion.

 

“Inu-Yasha, SIT!”

 

After being sat and laughed at by Kouga, Inu-Yasha decided that it would be wise to leave her and his brother alone. Especially since Sesshoumaru had that `I'm going to kill you' look in his eyes.

 

“You have improved, miko.”

 

“Kagome, my name is Kagome. Ka-go-me, can you remember that or is that too difficult for you?”

 

“Do not condescend me miko, for I can kill you without a second thought.”

 

“Yea, un huh, real romantic there buddy,” Miroku wished he had not said that when he saw the red bleed into his eyes. Sesshoumaru was going to have him some monk ass.

 

“Do you wish to die today? I could easily arrange that for you if you want monk.” Sesshoumaru at that moment was choking the hell out of Miroku.

 

“Hey stop that dumb ass.” Kagome slide in between the Taiyoukai and Miroku, she began to roughly push against Sesshoumaru's hard chest.

 

“What do you think you are doing?”

 

“Separating the toddlers, that's what I'm doing.”

 

“I, Lord Sesshoumaru am not a toddler.”

 

“Yes, you Lord Fluffy are but just a puppy.”

 

“Listen wench, you have no right to say that to me,” Sesshoumaru forgot about the monk for Kagome had his full attention. Miroku took this opportunity to sneak off to where he would be safe from harm. “Who do you think you are? You are nothing but a mere mutated ningen.”

 

“Sesshoumaru, Lord of the Bakazarus, I personally do not enjoy your pathetic attempts at insults.” She hit a sore spot; she got herself pinned to a tree being held by a steel grip. “Th-at's right. Kill-me. That's the on-ly thing you can do. Bastard.”

 

“You try my patience.” Sesshoumaru let go of her now bruised neck. She began to heave and then caught her breath.

 

“What patience? You have patience, right where? Can I get its autograph?”

 

“Listen bitch, apparently you have lost your mind. So I shall overlook your incongruity and forget that this ever happened.” Saying this Sesshoumaru began to walk away.

 

“Oh, no you don't,” Kagome grabbed Sesshoumaru's arm rather forcefully and turned him around. “You and your idiotic brother continuously call me anything you fuckers damn well please but do I? No, only now do I mock you both because I'm sick of being called: bitch, woman, ningen, miko, and girl. I have a name and if it's too difficult for you and your brother's tiny minds to remember it then write it down on you mother fucking hand!”

 

“Watch your mouth, woman.”

 

Slap.

 

Kagome actually slapped Sesshoumaru, and it was hard. Everyone stopped what they were doing to stare, he was shocked to say the least but showed nothing on his face and she was furious. So furious that a light emanated from her body, she began to glow a dark shade of red and blue. From far away the light would seemingly look purple. Kagome's eyes glowed too and for once in his life Sesshoumaru stood down. This was not a battle that he wanted in for. She was engulfed in a very strong aura.

 

“Kagome,” asked Sango. Sango came to the realization that her best friend was losing control of her new found self.

 

So this is part of her change, she has been more than just a bit aggressive lately. I wonder what else she is capable of since her change, this transformation to whatever the hell she became really made her powerful. Will she still be the same Kagome once she has changed completely, full of love and life? I guess we will have to wait until it's over. Maybe this fight with Sesshoumaru put her over the edge, unleashing all of her powers… That's probably it, damn jackass always being so stuck up. But he is good looking, what am I saying? The man is godly in appearance…

 

Sesshoumaru was staring at Kagome, for some reason he couldn't get his eyes off her. Her scent was changing, it was driving him crazy, and it was not like this before. So the previous change was only physical, now she was changing spiritually. He had to do something.

 

What is happening to her? She looks like she is in a large amount of pain…

 

Sesshoumaru took a step forward while everyone else took a step back. No one but he, Shippou and Sango knew what was going on. Sango picked up Shippou and put him on her shoulder while tugging Miroku who grabbed Inu-Yasha who clawed Kouga. So it became a chain of daemons, a half breed and humans trailing away from supernova like aura. Sango thought to herself that Sesshoumaru had lost it completely, since he was actually getting closer. That he did, he was now less than an arm's length away from Kagome. His skin felt like it was on fire and yet he continued his approach. His face held a slight grimace at the pain he was undertaking. He wanted, no needed to get closer to her. He just had to touch her in some way. He leapt forward wrapping his arms around her.

 

Wait arms? My arm, it's back but how? Her, she did this but why?

 

Kagome felt the strong masculine arms wrap themselves around her but she could not stop what overtook her body. It was too late, he had pushed her too far today. She knew this was the end of her life as what she once was. She did not know what was to be the future; maybe this would help them fight Naraku? His arms were steadfast even though his sleeves were being burnt away as well as his haori. He figured that in a few more minutes he would be completely nude but he could not let her go. He did not know what possessed him to hold onto her like this. His grip tightened and he pulled her flush against him, she did not have to go through this alone. From where Sango and the rest stood the view was of Kagome being held by Sesshoumaru and both were completely engulfed in flames.

 

“Sesshoumaru, are you okay?

 

Kagome looked down to a very naked Sesshoumaru. His body was not only latched onto hers but it was completely lacking clothing of any kind. She did not notice that her clothes had too been incinerated.

 

Do not think perverted thoughts… Do not think perverted thoughts…

 

“Gunn,” Sesshoumaru slowly wrapped his tail around them both. “Kagome, you're naked too so stop staring.”

 

Speaking of which his eyes, slowly descended to make sure of it. He was right of course.

 

Her skin is so warm… she doesn't smell bed either… well she never smelled bad… so smooth… and silky… how I would love to- what am I thinking? Where did that come from? She is a miko… no… can not… must not.

 

“What?????” Kagome looked down to see her own tanned skin. She began to try to get away from Sesshoumaru's hold, her efforts were fruitless. He just tightened his grip on her as she squirmed against him.

 

Kouga, Inu-Yasha, Miroku, Sango, and Shippou were shocked at the sight before their eyes. None could believe that the Lord of the Western Lands was buck naked holding on to a once before ningen. It must be a sign that the world was coming to an end.

 

“Kagome stop moving. Stop moving woman!”

 

“I have a NAME YOU ASS-“

 

Sesshoumaru used his mouth to muffle her unnecessary noise. She was way too close to his ears for comfort. This action left a very red faced Kagome.

 

“Can you not yell? You forget who is currently covering your naked body.”

 

“You… you kissed me…”

 

“No, I muffled your screaming.”

 

“No, you kissed me.”

 

“Listen to my words: this Sesshoumaru did not kiss you.”

 

“Un huh, you just wanted a freebie. Jerk.”

 

“Freebie?”

 

“Yea like Miroku over there, you're a lecher goddamn it!”

 

“Do you wish to die?”

 

“Hentai.”

 

“Apparently you do wish to die, this Sesshoumaru can easily grant your wish.”

 

“Why do you always refer to yourself?”

 

“Because I am royalty.”

 

“So that means you can walk around sounding like an idiot?”

 

“You really try my patience.”

 

“I know its fun to pull your strings. You're so uptight anyways, you need to relax and have some fun.”

 

“Kagome, if you ever slap me again that will be the last day of your life. I swear that to you, also if you continue to mock me I will be forced to hurt your person.”

 

“Mock? Who said I was mocking you? I never mock anyone, just stating facts.”

 

“Facts and where do you get these facts?”

 

“Observations, I observe and analyze before I decide to make an assumption about anyone else, unlike some people or should I say daemons?”

 

“You accused me of being a hentai. Is that not an assumption?”

 

“No, it's because you kissed me. Therefore you are a hentai.”

 

“You do not make any sense woman.”

 

“Do not call me woman.”

 

“Kagome, are you two moving from there to get clothes or are the two of you just going to stand there all day in the nude?”

 

“Sango's right we should get something to wear.”

 

“I am not moving, ask someone to bring us clothing.”

 

“You do it.”

 

Sesshoumaru began to growl at her and she just laughed. Kouga and Inu-Yasha's jaws had fallen to floor; Kagome and Sesshoumaru were having playful banter. This is truly an oddity.

 

“You two must be crazy. Anyways I'll get you both some clothing. Kaede must have something for you two to wear. She'll find this to be interesting.”

 

The rest of the group left the two in the woods. They began to laugh amongst themselves at the predicament those two were in. Neither could move lest they wanted the villagers to stare. With them gone, Sesshoumaru relaxed his grip on the girl. She could now breathe more freely.

 

“Could I ask you something, Sesshoumaru?”

 

“What is it now?”

 

“Why did you hold me?”

 

“This Sesshoumaru does not have to answer that question.”

 

“Sure you don't but I do want to know what possessed you to hold onto someone who was on fire. I was wondering maybe you are crazier than I thought.”

 

“That is not the truth. I held onto you because you needed to be held. Your clothes were deteriorating. Therefore I protected you from the pervert houshi.”

 

“Yea right, that's a lie and you know it.”

 

“You dare call me, Lord of the Western Lands, a liar?”

 

“Hai, I do because you obviously are. Why the hell would you care if Miroku saw me naked?”

 

“He is a lecher; he deserves not to lay his eyes upon your virginal body.”

 

Kagome, blushed a furious shade of fire engine red, he cared about her. In his own special Sesshoumaru way but he cared.

 

“You care.”

 

“Nani?”

 

“You,” she gabbed him in his chest with her finger. “Care about me,” she then pointed to herself, all done for emphasis. Maybe with his age he was beginning to lose his hearing?

 

“Not necessarily. It could have been just-”

 

Kagome stood on the tips of her toes and kissed him. She was going to change the future, it was her life. Even if it meant her death, she did not care. It was time that she took control of things, besides he was not growling nor did he pull away. In fact he purred?

 

Is he purring or is that a rumbling noise? It is definitely not a growl but what the hell- Oh Kami, is that his tongue? Yes, yes it is…

 

Sesshoumaru's thoughts:

Why is she kissing me? I thought that she hated me? I guess that even I can be wrong. This feels… nice… right…

 

Sango found them making out, instead of saying anything she left the clothing next to them. Kami did Sesshoumaru put any man or demon to shame. She began back to the village when Inu-Yasha came into her view, she tried to distract him but to no avail. He ducked left and rushed past coming to a dead halt at what he saw. Sesshoumaru was kissing Kagome why would he do that? Oh this bastard was going to pay! Sesshoumaru and Kagome sensed Inu-Yasha and his angry aura. Sesshoumaru whipped Kagome behind his back. She noticed on the ground the grab that Sango had acquired for them on the ground very close to Sesshoumaru's foot.

 

“Sesshoumaru what the fuck do you think you are doing you goddamn mother fucking son of a bitch bastard!”

 

“The last time I checked dear incompetent brother, neither you nor anyone else have claimed her. She is free to mate with whoever she pleases and it just so happens that she would rather be with the better brother.”

 

“You arrogant piece of shit!”

 

Kagome had nicked the kimono and hakahama, and was put it on behind Sesshoumaru using him as a shield. Once she was clothed she gave Sesshoumaru the clothing that Sango had brought for him. She ignored Inu-Yasha that is until he called her a whore.

 

“You stupid mutt!” Kagome choose that time to kick him in the shin and sit him. “You ever call me that again and I will purify you. Besides why do you care? You have Kikyo and we never had anything more than a friendship. Are you trying to get your cake and eat it too? It's not going to happen not in a million years!”

 

Kagome stormed off to the village, she began to jog then burst into a full run. She was a blur to human eyes.

 

“Wow, she's fast.”

 

“Faster than you hanyou. That reminds me,” Sesshoumaru turned sharply to his right grabbing his brother's throat and slamming him into a tree. “If you ever insult her in my presence I will kill you and it will be slow brother.”

 

Sarcasm and venom seethed from his mouth with the words he knew would bother his brother. This was a great start for a day. Sesshoumaru turned on his heel and left his brother slumped against a tree to go back to the village. He was going to have her, whether she wanted it or not. Sesshoumaru got what he wanted, always, and he wanted her.

 

“Kagome!”

 

Kagome surprised Sango by sneaking up behind her and lifting her off the ground. Both girls began to laugh at the circumstance. Kagome felt like she was on top of the world, nothing could go wrong, right?
