I don't own Inuyasha. Well I hope everyone enjoys this strange idea I had gotten that may not be strange at all.
Walk in the Woods
It had been one of those days where Kagome had to head back home to replenish her supplies. She had just reached the Tree of Ages and felt good. The clean fresh air of the past was nothing like that of the futures’ air. The sun was peeking through the dense foliage as she tripped on a root, letting out a surprised cry. She was saved from a face full of dirt by a pair of strong arms.
“Are you alright Miko?” A warm voice asked making her shiver with an unknown fear or excitement. She couldn’t decide as she righted herself.
Turning around to face the owner of the voice she found something unexpected. “Lord Sesshomaru?” Kagome voiced her disbelief at the cold Daiyokai standing before her.
He smiled wide making him look younger as he stared at her. “Well not exactly Miko but then it is no surprise you know him since you know that little hanyo too.” He chuckled patting her on the head with a clawed hand.
“Who are you?” She questioned with a blush as she knocked his hand away.
“I am the lesser known twin to my younger brother that is. So Miko I have been hearing tails of your adventures. And I wanted to know if you wouldn’t mind going on one with me?” He said looking at her with a puppy dog stare that she gave into.
“Uh sure why not ah wait a minute what is your name?” He just chuckled before he was gone leaving a confused raven haired girl behind.
Shrugging off the weird encounter she made her way back to her own time. The well glowed faintly as she lightly hit the ground. She smiled as the sounds of people walking around the shrine greeted her. Climbing out of the well she hulled her big yellow bag with her as she left the well-house. Looking around she smirked as no one was around to see her leave.
Entering the house she looked around spotting what she needed to pack. After the task was down she headed up-stairs to get in a nice hot bath. Which she stayed in until it grew cold and she had gotten prune looking fingers and toes. She skipped what would have been dinner for a good-nights rest in her own bed.
Morning rolled around all too soon and she grumbled as she picked herself up out of bed. Then she remembered meeting Sesshomaru’s twin. A blush spread across her face as she thought of him. He looked like Sesshomaru except happier. He wore an outfit that looked just like his except the opposite in colors and he wore no sword on his hip or the armor.
Getting dressed in a simple blue sundress she made her way down stairs where everyone was eating breakfast. Sōta smiled at her getting up and giving her a hug since she never stayed long. Her grandfather was telling about something or other as he ate his food.
Everything moved by quickly as she grabbed the heavy bag and told her family goodbye as she left for the past.
As Kagome came out of the Bone Eater’s Well she was surprised to find that Inuyasha wasn’t there. She smiled at the thought of the impatient hanyo sitting waiting for her patiently for her in the village. But that thought was taken from her as the wind picked up for a moment before it settled.
“So have you had enough time to prepare yourself Miko?” He asked her from behind making her shiver again.
“What?” She asked confused but the bag around her shoulders was gone and her feet were no longer planted firmly on the ground.
Kagome gasped in surprise but strangely she felt no fear of falling to the ground. Looking down at the ground she watched in wonder as the ground moved below them. It was an amazing scene as the rice fields gave way to solid green and then to a deeper green finally to the grey mountains.
As sudden as she took to the skies she was safely back down on the ground. When she stood free of the Daiyokai her knees went to jelly as she tried to take a step. Again he caught her in his arms and she blushed. But it quickly went away as the sound of another voice greeted them.
“What are you doing here traitor.” The voice of the real Sesshomaru asked in a monotone that gave away nothing.
“Oh well I was just picking up the last piece of the puzzle.” The young Lord of the West looked at the other male with a questioning gaze.
“What would that be.” He said not looking the bit interested in what the other male was after.
Kagome looked at them both but was shocked at how much they really looked like one another. But she felt that there was something off about the both of them. She couldn’t put her finger on it but she let it go as he went right up to Sesshomaru.
“This and might I say you don’t take care of things well at all. Look at the poor metal it is practically crying.” He said looking at him right in the eyes before abruptly turning away from him.
He grabbed Kagome by the wrist and dragged her off down an old deer trail. The sound of footsteps following them made her question if Sesshomaru was following them. But thee pace that the older male had set was too fast to catch a glimpse of the one following them.
The land suddenly went from cool to warm in no time flat as he walked on. It had been over four hours of walking like this and Kagome was growing tired fast. She dug her heels in as she tugged on her wrist to get out of the males hold.
Turning he looked at her with worry in his eyes as he looked over her face. He cupped her face with his clawed hands and kissed her on the top of her head.
“I am sorry Miko.” Was all the warning she got before he picked her up and started to walk once again only faster.
