The Future

BLANKET DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA!

Chapter 1: The Future

Kagome could not believe her eyes. She watched as Inuyasha finally defeated Sesshomaru and was about to deliver the final blow. They did not need the entire west upon them because they killed their lord! “SIT!!” Kagome looked at Sango. Sango told Kilala to help Kagome. Kilala transformed and got Sesshomaru and Kagome climbed on after she situated him. “Sango, Kilala will be with me in the future for a few days. I will bring her back as soon as I can.”

“Do what you need to Kagome. I trust you.”

Kagome gave Kilala the go ahead and they raced to the well. She told the fire neko to just jump in. The blue light engulfed them and they were on the other side. Kilala got them out of the well and she helped Kagome get the demon lord inside and up the stairs. She told her mother she would tell her when she got back. She took Kilala back to the well and sent the neko back through and sealed the well. She came back in and told her mother all about the fight. The only reason that Inuyasha won was that Sesshomaru had already been fatally wounded and refused to accept aid and Inuyasha had taken advantage of that. She would not allow it again! Kagome got the first aid and dressed Sesshomaru’s wounds. She didn’t care that her silk bed sheets were ruined, she just cared that he lived. After she had him taken care of, she got a change of clothes and went to take a shower. It was nearly one hundred eight degrees outside, so she put on some denim shorts and a black spaghetti strap tank top. She went back into her room and sat at her desk and worked on her college work. She had graduated high school and she was about to graduate college with a master’s degree. She was only twenty, but she majored in history so she flew through it fairly quickly.

Sesshomaru groaned as he awoke and felt his wounds stretch with his breathing. The next thing he registered was that he was in a bed with silk sheets that were a lot better than his. How was that possible? He owned the finest in all of Japan. He opened his eyes. His internal clock said it should be approaching midnight, so why was it so bright? He looked around him and saw the miko at a desk looking at something. He just looked at her in complete confusion.

Kagome felt his eyes on her so she turned around in her chair to look at him. “You are awake. Glad to see it. How do you feel?”

“How long was I asleep?”

“Oh, he does know how to speak in the first person. Impressive. You have been asleep for roughly twelve hours.” Kagome watched as his mask slipped for an instance and showed annoyance. Then he looked down at her sheets.

“It seems that I have ruined your silk sheets.”

Kagome laughed. “That’s okay. I can just go get more.”

“You are wealthy?”

“Kind of. Would you like something to eat and drink?”
“That would be acceptable.”

“Are you able to walk?”

“Hn.” He wouldn’t say it out loud, but he would need help to do so.

Kagome saw him try to stand and wobble a little bit so she stood and took his arm and slung it over her shoulder and held him up. He was kind of heavy.

Sesshomaru was impressed with the miko. Usually it took to of his soldiers to hold him up in this state, but the miko was doing it alone.

“Let’s go. We will have to be careful with the stairs though.” It took her a little bit, but she got him downstairs and on the couch safely. “Okay. None of my family is home at the moment, but they all know you are here. Do you have something specific in mind that you want, or can I surprise you?”

“Surprise?” He thought he knew all the dishes from here and the mainland.

Kagome smiled. “Surprise it is. Do you like spicy or non-spicy food? It’s critical for me to make this dish. It can be made several ways.”

He did not care for anything spicy. It made his tongue burn. “Non.”

Kagome smiled and looked at the TV. She turned it on and watched as he jumped. She laughed silently. She went to the menu and tried to find something that he might enjoy. She found Legally Blonde and turned it on. She watched as he focused on the movie. She decided to make his healing easier and painless so she brought out a bracelet made from thin rope and fused her healing powers into it. It would help his youkai heal him a great deal faster. She grabbed his wrist and tied it on quickly. He glared at her until it started working. She turned around and went into the kitchen to make his dinner.

Sesshomaru was startled when the noise came from nowhere and he saw the shiny box thing come up with moving pictures. He felt her grab his wrist and tie something to it and glared at her until he felt his pain vanish. He relaxed once he realized her intent. He watched the moving pictures until he smelled something new and delicious. Curious being that he was he followed it into the kitchen and stood there and watched as the miko cooked some sort of meat and put some spices into it. He watched her cut up something green and something red. He watched her pull something out of a bigger box that let out a cool breeze when she did and pull out a white container of some sort and a bag that had white and yellow stuff in it. He then watched as she mixed the spices and the meat together and turned a knob that killed the fire. He watched her move around and was so confused as to what the things were. He smiled when he watched her pull a plate from another box that was on the wall. What was it with this human and strange boxes? He watched as she mumbled something and went back to the cold box and brought out some type of flat bread like thing in shiny wrapping out. She opened it and pulled one out and put it on the plate. She then proceeded to put the nice smelling meat in the middle of it and some green stuff, red stuff, white and yellow strings, and some of the creamy white stuff. She then folded it and looked at him. She nodded at the table and he got the hint that he should sit. He did and she placed the plate in front of him.

“Do you like milk?”

“This Sesshomaru has not drank any form of milk since he was a pup.”

Kagome giggled and got out a glass and brought the milk from the fridge, filled the glass, put the milk away, and placed the milk in front of him. “Did you know that milk makes your bones stronger?”

“No.” It seems that the miko would know many things he did not. He looked at the thing in front of him.

Kagome chuckled. “You pick it up and eat it with your hands.”

He raised his brow at her but did as he was instructed. He took a bite and chewed. A lot of sensations hit him at once. He swallowed and found he liked it. “What is this?”

Kagome laughed at his expression. “It’s called a taco. It originated from Spain.” He nodded and took a drink of the milk. He looked at it and she immediately started laughing when he put the glass down. He had a milk mustache! She had to lean against the wall to support herself.

“What is it that ails you, miko?”

Kagome couldn’t answer right away, but she recovered enough to get him a napkin and told him to wipe his upper lip if he wanted her to be able to think properly. He did so and laughed for a few more seconds before sobering up. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t help myself. You see, when a person drinks milk, they get a white mustache on their upper lip if they are not careful. When you go to take another drink, don’t lift it all the way. That should take care of the problem.”
