Chapter 2: Not Up For Negotiation
After a bit they touched down upon the ground to rest. It was now dark and they were still a few days away from Kaede's village. As Kagome started the fire and put the ramen on to cook. Shippo began to growl as did Kilala.
"Guys what's up." asked Kagome but got her answer when her skin started tingling, and a familiar aura washed over her.
"Sesshoumaru" Kagome said quietly with a smile. As she had struck up a close friendship with the formidable Taiyoukai.
"Calm down guys" said Kagome softly. "I've been friends with Sesshoumaru for quite some time now. He won't hurt us."
After both Shippo and Kilala calmed, she told them she'd be back soon and walked into the forest. After a bit she came in to a clearing, and seen Sesshoumaru walking in her direction. As soon as he was in front of her, he gave her one of his rare smiles. It then turned into a frown when he caught her scent.
"Kagome, where's the hanyou? Why isn't he with you?"
She smiled to him "We got into a major fight. I left…. For good…. I'm going back to my time, and taking Shippo with me. Because he didn't want to be without me, which is understandable I am all he has. Plus I'm his mother now, he needs me."
She then went on to explain all that had happened, and what was said in to fight. Sesshoumaru listened without interrupting her, although you wouldn't have known it to look at him. Inside he was boiling with rage, at the hanyou's audacity 'Hmm…. Seems Inuyasha does not remember as of yet, if he can say all those things I'll fucking kill him.' Thought Sesshoumaru
When Kagome finished, what Sesshoumaru said next shocked the hell out of her.



"That bastard hanyou! He is such a fool, for not seeing what is right in front of him. How he can chose the dead priestess over the living and breathing one is way beyond my comprehension. As for insulting you he better hope and pray that his path does not cross with mine. For if and when it does, I shall not be so hesitant as to kill him with my bare hands. How dare he."
Kagome gasped at the fury, the raw fury burning in Sesshoumaru's eyes. Oh yeah he was pissed, and a pissed Sesshoumaru was a scary Sesshoumaru. However it seemed he wasn't done surprising her yet, oh no if his next action was anything to go by. Before Kagome knew it she was locked in his strong and sure embrace.
'Oh my god he's hugging me. Sesshoumaru is HUGGING ME!' were her thoughts. But she recovered quickly and hugged him back crying slightly.
Sesshoumaru didn't know what to do when she began crying. So he did something he had seen his father do once to his mate. Sesshoumaru held Kagome tighter to himself and began to growl low; gently and softly which was designed for Inu's to calm their mate's down.
After a moment she calmed, and stopped crying. She pulled away from him, and smiled sadly.
And said equally as sadly…. "I guess this is goodbye for us Sess."
He smiled at her nickname that she had given him ages ago. He knew he would only ever let her get away with using a diminutive, whilst addressing him.
"Be not a fool, Kagome you will not be saying goodbye to me just yet." he said still smiling.
"What do you mean not yet I…." but Sesshoumaru cut her off.
"Kagome tell me…. Do you think I'm going to let you, the young fox cub and the fire cat travel to the well unprotected? As well as let you sleep at night unprotected. Because if you do you are mistaken."

Kagome gasped "thank you Sess for caring…. However I cannot pull you from your duties as Lord." she replied.
"NOT up for negotiation Kagome. I AM going to protect you and your group on your journey back to the well and that is final." He said in a gentle but firm voice that screamed no arguing with me.
"Oh-okay thank you Sess."
"Not a problem." and with that they headed back to camp.
When they got back to camp Shippo was putting out the ramen, and looked up shocked to see Sesshoumaru there with his 'mother.'
"Mama not to be rude, but what is Lord Sesshoumaru doing here." he asked innocently.
"He's accompanying us back to the well dear." Kagome replied gently.
"Oh-okay… well at least he'll make a better protector than Inuyasha ever did or ever will." said Shippo without thinking.
Sesshoumaru smiled at the young kit, and walked over and patted his head. Then went over by a tree and sat down knowing he had been accepted, leaving a shocked fox kit in his wake. Kagome then went over and helped Shippo with the ramen.
After they had ate, and Kilala and Sesshoumaru had hunted for themselves they all bedded down, except Sesshoumaru and Kagome who sat up and conversed for a while.
