Sesshomaru and Kagome: A Dangerous Love
Chapter 1: Encounter
His gaze was simply cold and frightening, however it came with great ease getting lost in those eyes of his. His face stay expressionless as usual. Not a curl on his lips, nor a twinkle in his eye. Sesshomaru stood, staring up to the sky as his thoughts remained to himself. The Sun beat down on his pale skin, making his eyes gleam.
"Lord Sesshomaru, where are we going?" Rin asked curiously. Her voice was so sweet and loving. Her eyes looked upon her Lord whom was staring up at the sky.
"Stop asking such silly questions, Rin!" bickered Jaken. His voice, on the other hand, was pretty painful to hear. It was always hoarse and even more high-pitched than Rin's. He cleared his throat. "So, where are we going m'Lord?" Jaken asked.
Sesshomaru looked back down, staring straight into the forest. He didn't reply. Or maybe he was going to, but was interrupted when he saw someone running as if her life depended on it.
Oh wait, it did. Kagome ran, stretching her legs out with each stride, trying to gain speed on the demon chasing her. Her yellow backpack was slung over her right shoulder. It slid down her arm, but she just hoisted it back up again. She was looking back over her shoulder as she watched the demon gradually get closer to her. It wasn't running at all, simply walking at a fast pace. Right as she turned her head to look forward, she ran into Sesshomaru. She seemed to bounce right off of him, falling to the ground. She looked up at the Inuyasha's elder brother and without realizing her mouth hung open a little.
Sesshomaru looked down at her, having the same expressionless face he did since anyone could remember. He stared at her for a moment and then looked to the demon.
The demon paused and stared at Sesshomaru who was giving him the most deathly gaze. It actually was no different than his normal gaze, but the demon didn't know that. It half wanted to high-tail its way back home and flee in fear of his life, but it didn't. "Hand me those two human girls and your life shall be spared" he said, shifting his eyes from Kagome to Rin, then back to Sesshomaru. Mighty bold today aren't we?
"Leave now if you value your worthless life." Sesshomaru replied coldly.
The demon started to laugh evilly. "AH HA HA HA HA HA. Out of my way" the demon said, reaching for Rin.
Sesshomaru darted a few steps to where the demon was and sliced through it with ease. He landed on his feet, barely making a 'thump' noise. He had such grace, even when slicing threw a demon.
Kagome stood up and brushed her skirt off. "Thank you," Kagome said awkwardly.
"I did not save you. I simply eliminated someone in my way"
"Foolish wench! Lord Sesshomaru would never save someone like you! Especially Inuyasha's wench" Jaken said snootily.
Kagome balled her fists up, stiffening her arms straight down, trying to bottle her anger.
"Kagome, why are you by yourself?" Rin asked curiously, interrupting the soon-to-be feud.
Kagome relaxed herself and turned to Rin with a smile. "I can't seem to find Inuyasha and the others. I think something might've happened" she said, turning to Sesshomaru in search of some look of concern in his face. She found none. Not even the faintest change in his countenance.
"So the half-breed is in trouble. Such a fool" Sesshomaru said. It was hard to tell if he were talking to himself or to Kagome. Most likely to himself, though.
"Come with us Kagome! We might find your friends while traveling!" Rin said with a heartily smile.
"Absolutely not!" Jaken said. "Lord Sesshomaru would never allow someone such as her to come along! And another thing, --" Jaken started yelling furiously, but soon realized he was talking to himself and the others had walked off.
Rin pranced behind her Lord, humming a tune to herself.
Kagome walked closer to Sesshomaru. She didn't want to walk beside or in front of him, in fear she'd be going against some law or something that Lords have. However, she still walked a few inches behind him. "Um, Sesshomaru? Would you mind if I traveled with you until we find Inuyasha? I'm sure we'll run into him soon" she said and trailed off. Her nervousness grew as Sesshomaru intimidated her a little.
Sesshomaru continued walking with no response for a moment. "Do as you wish. However, know that I am not your protector like that half-breed. I have no interest in mortals"
A large sweat drop rolled down the back of her head as an image of Rin flashed through her mind. 'Uh, okay then.' Kagome thought to herself uneasily. "Thank you," she said and slowed her pace so she was walking by Rin.
My Other Note: Yes, yes, I know it's short. Not to worry, my intro's usually are. My content chapters are longer, though ;D Reviews are loved!
