Kagome did not like the silence that fell between them. It only made the forest more creepy and ominous than it already was. Perhaps some conversation would take her mind off of the sinking feeling that eventually she was going to trip over some poor soul’s forgotten skeleton…
Kagome stepped into stride with Sesshoumaru, wrapping her arm around his.
The only sound was their own soft treads and the beautiful birdsong, hollow woodwind notes that hung eerily in the air, background noises that only made her feel more uneasy. She wished that Sesshoumaru would say something, even though that was ridiculously unlikely. They kept pace behind Taka as he trotted along in front of them, and Kagome tried to think of a good conversation starter in such grim surroundings.
Suddenly Taka came to a halt, the hair on the scruff of his neck bristling. He had stopped panting and cocked his head to the side, as if listening to something only he could hear. His ears swiveled around once, twice, before he bolted off into the trees, catapulting himself over a fallen tree.
“Taka!” Kagome yelled.
“You’re wasting your breath,” Sesshoumaru said, and at once they were moving forward again. Sesshoumaru did not even bother to look in the direction Taka had gone.
“But Taka! What if he gets lost in the woods?”
“He will do no such thing,” Sesshoumaru said flatly.
Kagome stopped dead in her tracks and was forced to release Sesshoumaru’s arm as he kept moving without her.
“I know he’s a dog, Sesshoumaru, but he’s not a dog demon,” Kagome said. “He can still get lost, and this forest is huge. We’ll never find him.”
Sesshoumaru stopped and glanced back at her, looking strangely annoyed. “He will not get lost,” he said. “This is his forest.”
