The Priestess

Kagome turned around to face the men, and her face was etched with fright. "Hand her
over." commanded the leader.
"No." replied the guy who she bumped into.
"Then we'll have to do it by force." yelled the leader, as he and his men charged.
The guy rummaged through his red locks, and retrieved a seed. "Rose whip!" he yelled, as
it transformed into a whip with many thorns. In a second, everyone laid sprawled on the ground,
in their own blood.
Kagome screamed, then fainted.

~Kagome's POV~

When I woke up, I was in a large bed. I looked around me, and noticed that I was in a
very big room, that was gorgeous. "Seems like your awake." stated the guy who saved me. "My
name is Kurama."
"Thank you for saving me." I thanked. "My name is Kagome. Can you tell me where I
am?"
"Yes." replied Kurama with a small smile. "Your in the palace of Emperor Enma." I'm in
a palace? "Now, may I ask you a question?" I nodded my head. "Where are you from?"
"Well, you might not believe me, but I'm from another world. One where there is no
emperor, slave traders, or anything like this." I replied. "Do you know how I can get back?"
"I believe you." replied Kurama. "I could tell from your clothes, but I just wanted to make
sure. Currently, I have no idea how to get you back home, but I think our emperor would like to
meet you."
So I dressed, after Kurama left. When I opened the door, Kurama was standing there
waiting for me. "Follow me." stated Kurama, as he led me down the corridor, and into the throne
room.
When I saw the emperor, we both bowed to him. "I have found the Priestess of Byakko."
stated Kurama. What does he mean?
"Great job!" congratulated the emperor. "So, are you willing to help us?" he asked me.
"Um, sure, I guess." I replied. "But I'm a bit confused."
"Well, there are four priestesses. One for Suzaku, Seiryu, Byakko, and Genbu. You are
the priestess for Byakko, and you have seven celestial warriors who will protect you." explained
the emperor. "Your job is to find the remaining five."
"So two are already found?" I asked.
"Yes." replied Kurama, as he unbuttoned his shirt. I blushed at that, and he showed me a
glowing white sign on his chest. Too bad I can't read Chinese. "Sesshoumaru also has one, but
he currently isn't here."

So the next few days I spent wandering around the palace. "Priestess." called Kurama, as
he came towards me.
"Please, just call me Kagome." I stated, as I smiled at him. Ever since Emperor Enma
declared to everyone that I was the Priestess of Byakko, people had been so polite to me. It made
me feel embarrassed.
"Is something wrong?" asked Kurama, as he looked at me worriedly.
"No." I replied. "Just bored."
"Why don't we go outside the palace." suggested Kurama. I immediately smiled and
nodded my head. Not long later, the palace gates opened, and we went out.
We were just walking around when suddenly a white horse stopped in front of us. A guy
with long white-hair jumped off looking annoyed. "Kurama." stated the guy a bit coldly. "We
were suppose to find the Priestess of Byakko, not go on dates."
"This is the Priestess of Byakko." replied Kurama with a smile. "Sesshoumaru, really,
your going to scare her."
"Sorry about that, priestess." apologized Sesshoumaru, as he raced back to the palace.
"Don't worry." stated Kurama. "He's always like that. You'll get use to it. He is also one
of your celestial warriors."
"Oh." I replied, as I smiled. "How did you identify me?"
"All priestess are from another world." replied Kurama.
"So, Yui and Miaka could be here too?" I asked.
"I don't know who you speak of, but the Priestess of Suzaku and Seiryu have already
found all their warriors." added Kurama. Then it must be Miaka and Yui. I think they might be
here too! Since they weren't in the real world, and the book was there. Wait, then could
Kikyou...
"Kagome." called Kurama. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." I replied. "Let's go over there!" Kurama nodded, and we spent the rest of the day
talking and getting to know each other better.
