Chemical Reaction

This is a response to katlady's Pink Cast Challenge. I'm not sure if I will continue it with other challenges or just leave it. I guess it depends on what pops up that would fit this story line.

Chemical Reaction

Her eyes gazed over the object of her hatred. She was certain it was the beginning of her misfortune.

Just over a month ago Inuyasha had left her at the top of a cliff. His told her he could smell Kikyou and his one track mind didn't think about the consequences of leaving the living miko alone, on a large pile of rocks, with no supplies. Of course she didn't want to die of hunger, thirst, or the elements, so Kagome began the descent to the ground. It was tough, she had to overcome her fear of heights, but at long last, after a couple of hours in the clouds, she saw the ground. It was only feet away. Just a story or so to go and she would be home free.  She was certain she was going to make it when...

A bird swooped out of nowhere and attacked her. To her right was a nest and the large feathered creature thought the miko was after her eggs. Kagome lost her grip and she plummeted to the ground. The fall forced her into the realm of the unconscious.

Even when she came to she was certain she was dreaming. Sesshomaru's ward, Rin was standing over her. It occurred to her immediately that wherever the child went the inu wouldn't be too far. Her eyes flickered over her surrounding and she saw him sitting under a tree to her right.

Great, she groaned mentally. But before anything else was said Kagome winched.

"Sesshomaru-sama says your arm is broken," Rin exclaimed with excitement.

A soft, yet annoyed smile flashed across her features, "Really great," she mumbled.

Sesshomaru escorted Kagome to Edo. Though if it weren't for young girl, Kagome was certain he wouldn't have assisted her at all. With no questions asked the miko simply followed unable to wait until she could travel home feel the relief painkillers would bring. The time it took to get to the village was cut in half thanks to the ride on Ah-Un's back. Once down the well Kagome found herself in the arms of her mother, who tugged her into the car and rushed her to the emergency room.

She had been given a choice of colour for her cast and chose... white. Simple. Basic. Plain. And it wouldn't cause suspicion in the feudal era as she moved from village to village.  

A week later Kagome went back. Inuyasha was nowhere to be found so Sango and Miroku had assumed to come back to the village. Once reunited with the miko, she explained what had occurred. A debt was owed to the inu lord and she felt she needed to pay him back. Much to the slayer and the monk's disapproval the woman gathered a few things, knowing full well there was nothing Sesshomaru would want but Rin on the other hand was a different matter entirely.

It didn't take long though for Kagome and her smaller group to get into trouble. Which led to the position she was now in. A demon came after her, seeking the shards. Inuyasha, surprisingly burst through the tree line, shouting angrily. Sesshomaru in his true form jumped over the hanyou attacking the dragon. From what Sango, Kagome, and Miroku could gather, the two inu brothers had been fighting over whose fight this was. The dragon had attacked while Sesshomaru confronted Inuyasha and the both of them decided that it was their battle to 'prove something'.

Though Kagome didn't know what the something was. It didn't occur to her the battle was over until Sesshomaru came over plucked Kagome from the ground with his jaws and tossed her into the air. She fell through the sky with a scream and landed safely on white fluff. But she ignored everything when she noticed that she was covered in Sesshomaru's saliva.

"Eww... gross," she began trying to flick the clumps off her form when she took notice of the bubbling off her cast.  It shocked her when it settled down.

"Pink," she whispered distastefully, "Why pink?"

It was too girly for her. She didn't understand why the cast could even pick up the bright vividness it was giving off. Almost blinding. Her only conclusion was that the chemicals in the goo she had been covered in reacted with the plaster of the cast turning it a bright pink. But of course that wasn't the worse of her troubles.

"Where are you taking her you bastard!"

A growl resonated through the skies.

"What do you mean she's yours!!! Give me back my shard detector..." Inuyasha voice trailed off as he became a spot in a large patch of green while Sesshomaru flew higher.

"Why me?" Kagome growled.
