Ok I know a lot of you are wondering when I'm finishing lovers' tale and putting out my other stories I talked about. But I have been having these strange dreams about Kagome and SesshoMaru and couldn't stop. After seeing the Kagome Sesshy bandwagon pull up I jumped on also. So her is my first Kag and Sesshy fic.
Chapter 1: Decisions
She sat by the well thinking of the events that occurred last night. Her face turned to a smirk at the images that flashed there. She had been in the past now for two years of her teen life giving up all she knew just to help the hanyou find the shards. Of course she was the protector of the jewel, but still she was young. She was supposed to be having fun with her friends not defending her life or getting captured fighting deadly youkai who wanted to kill her. Inuyasha was her first love but she finally came to accept the fact he would always love Kikyo and if she ever doubted that last night's event proved that beyond a doubt. Even though she accepted it she still hoped he have sense not to rut the corpse. But being Inuyasha she should have known better.
Flashback
Kagome and the others had awoken past midnight to her screams coming from the forest. They ran prepared to fight if necessary and find where the screams had come from. As they entered the forest they could her light cries but were unsure where they came from. The group separated trying to locate the sound and the trouble, Kagome headed towards the left while Sango and Miroku went right. As she went further into the forest the sounds seem to become louder and she readied her bow. She moved quietly through the foliage until she came across the smell of decaying flesh. As she looked ahead she saw the remains of a youkai, half its body turned to dust whilst the other was ripped to shreds. From the looks of it she knew Inuyasha had gotten there before they had. She let out the breath she been holding and continued towards the monster, noticing a shard on the ground. Which was odd, Inuyasha would never leave a shard lying there. Then she heard the noise again, picking up the shard and pocketing it, she moved on. Maybe the youkai wasn't alone, she moved further until her eyes beheld a sight she wanted to forget. There not far from the slain monster was Kikyo and Inuyasha, naked and Inuyasha forcing himself into Kikyo hard. It was her moans and cries that they heard and not cries of help. She was glued to the spot and could not move, she watched as he repeatedly entered her hard, his mouth on her breasts. Then he stopped and flipped her over and entered her from behind, with the same force as before. Kagome could not move her eyes, she wasn't a hentai but it was hard to believe the sight in front of her. Her heart was not breaking, but her faith in him was, how could he still do that with her? She then heard Kikyo cry out again "Harder, Harder" followed by the cries again, Kagome then turned and walked away.
Later she found the others and told them Inuyasha had took care of the problem and not to worry. They wanted to know why they still heard the cries. She advised them not to bother and head back to the hut, seeing the look on her face, they agreed without complaint. They returned to the hut and settled back in for the night. Kagome had not slept well; she was still awake when Inuyasha had returned.
Then this morning, the group awoke asking many questions of Inuyasha about the faint cries. He turned red and walked out, Kagome soon followed heading for the forest. Hearing a noise behind her, she looked up to see Inuyasha on the roof of the hut. They looked at each other with unspoken words and had understood one another. She would not tell his secret and he was grateful, but knew she thought less of him. After a while she turned and walked away, finding herself at the well and so began to think.
Now sitting there remembering, she felt the same as then, she just couldn't really see Inuyasha the same anymore. She needed to get away from all this and have a change. She wasn't running from Inuyasha or Kikyo, it was finally time for a change in her life. With her mind made up she got up from her position, and hopped into the well.
Upon arriving in her time period, she knew she needed to think of something to tell her family, but what. Realizing she had not thought this through enough, she went into house to meet her family. She told them she was there for supplies and to drop off some homework and would leave again before sunset. Accepting this her mother made a quick dinner for them all to share and they spent family time laughing and joking and Kagome catching up on events.
Just before sunset Kagome carried her new bag her mother had bought for her some time ago. Kagome had put in supplies and clothes. This bag was bigger than her old one and seemed lighter even with the heavy load. She kissed her family good bye promising to return soon and headed for the well.
Upon arriving on the other side, she wasn't surprised no one was there to greet her, she did just disappear after all. As she got out of the well and straightened her clothes her senses told her she was being watched. She did not want her watcher to know she sensed them. She acted if all was normal and gathered her things, heading for the village.
As soon as she reached the Goshinboku Tree, she heard a faint giggle and what she believed was an annoyed growl. Not able to stop herself she turned in the direction of the noise and looked into golden eyes staring back at her. Knowing that these eyes were different than the ones she looked at all the time. She knew who it was but the little girl running towards her helped to reassure her. It was the Demon Lord himself along with his ward Rin. She only met her on one occasion, but the child had a way of leaving her impression. She was brought out of her musings as the girl attached herself to her leg and grinned up at her. She smiled at her and knelt down picking her up. She gave her a hug and greeted her before sitting her back on the ground.
Kagome turned to see SesshoMaru coming towards them, finally stopping to stand beside her looking at Rin. Rin noticing his presence looked to him as he began to speak. "Rin I want you to go get Jaken where we left him and tell him I said to head back to camp. Also I want you to go with him, understand?" he asked seeing her about to argue. "I have to talk to Kagome" he told her with a command but in a fatherly way to not be questioned. Without further argument, Rin said good-bye to Kagome and headed back into the direction in which they came.
Kagome was slightly surprised by his manner towards the child and the fact he actually said her name. Caught up in her musings she did not notice he turned his attentions back to her and was smirking. "Wench do not look at I the Great SesshoMaru as I was not to be respected, your insolence will not be tolerated." He said with his mask in place, but his voice registering the unspoken threat.
Upon hearing this Kagome came out of her musings and became enraged at his manner towards her and began to step closer to him. Her index finger outstretched pointing in his face she began her tirade. "Look her my name is Kagome, KA-GO-ME not wench nor bitch or anything else. I do not appreciate being talked to like a servant because I'm not. You will treat me like a person…" she paused for a moment to catch her breath. "And further more the Great SesshoMaru acts more like a thief in the night stalking people than the Demon Lord he's supposed to be. Frankly I don't care who or what you are but until you can act like a person and speak to me properly then leave me alone." With that she turned and began her journey back to the village.
Before she got to far his tail reached out and wrapped around her waist, pulling her back towards him. He was not used to being spoken to and dismissed by anyone. This girl had the nerve to defy him and for some reason he liked it. Yet he could not let her go unpunished. Pulling her back towards him, she began to pull at his tail. Finding it a lost cause she began to try and hit him, but he caught her wrists before any damage could be done. He stood there holding her at arms length looking at her. She was not in the least afraid of him, in fact she was very angry with him. In some ways he respected her, she known he was there watching her and yet continued on. She had not run like anyone else would, and now she was fighting him like he was a common human. She said she didn't care about his status, and that made him even more intrigued by her. He knew on some level that it was true because of how she treated Inuyasha. She never treated the hanyou like he was beneath her.
Kagome noticed SesshoMaru face, he looked like he was deep in thought and taking advantage of this she began to free herself from his tail. She had to admit it was comfortable, but a hindrance to her leaving. She was about free, when he tightened it around her some more and now pulled her against his body. She tried to get lose but in the process got her arms caught between them. Now stuck between his chest and herself. She looked up at him with rage, but when she met his eyes, she calmed. He was looking at her funny and she really could not describe it. She felt lost in his eyes, so wrapped up in looking at him she did not notice his tail loosened some and his arm came to take its place. He pulled her closer to him and she began to realize what was happening.
SesshoMaru was at first upset that she tried to leave and was going to punish her. He pulled her back to him, but when their bodies met he felt this surge go through him. He looked at her trying to see if she was using her powers against him, with that being the cause of the feeling. But she was wrapped close to him and her arms were pinned to his chest. He could feel her try to move them to no avail, and it felt good feeling her hands. She was unaware of what was happening to him. He wanted to smile, but that was something he could not do, besides he was SesshoMaru, he did not smile. Yet he looked into her eyes and it was like their souls met and were unwilling to leave. He could not look away from her, forgetting the reason he was there, he felt the need to kiss her. He loosened his tail and replaced it with his only arm, bringing her closer to him and descended towards her mouth. He wondered how it would be; those lips of hers were inviting, almost begging him.
Then the familiar scent of a kitsune caught his nose, not too far away but still leaving some time. He backed away and heard her whimper quietly, so she was as effected as he was, interesting. He actually smiled then and had not realized it.
Kagome noticed the smile and it brought her back to reality, they almost kissed but he stopped for a reason. Then she sensed it also, looking in the direction she sensed, a demon was coming but its presence did not feel threatening. Turning to SesshoMaru he was still looking at her, she was about to speak but he stopped her, holding up his hand.
"Kagome I have come to talk to you about Rin, but I see our time is short. I SesshoMaru will not harm you, unless you give me cause. Until then come with me and we will discuss the matter." All this was said with no room for argument, but she was not just going to go.
She stood there for a moment looking at him and knowing that the approaching demon was getting closer. Realizing it was Shippou, but she did not at the moment want to explain things to him. So with decision made she began to go in the direction Rin took. After a moment, she felt SesshoMaru's tail again go around her and they took to the air.
Shippou arrived by the tree and knew he smelt Kagome, but there was another scent there. He sniffed some more trying to recognize the scent, then he knew, SesshoMaru. Almost in a panic he knew he had to get Inuyasha, but he smelt the corpse on Inuyasha this morning and saw the look on his face. He also noticed Kagome's behavior as well. He thought about this more, Kagome must have known about the two but said nothing this morning. Something must be going on if she is now with SesshoMaru and had not called for help. So Shippou decided to follow their scents until he found his 'mother'.
