Power Lust by Freakomite
Chapter 1
She looked upon his face, his age was starting to show through. A fine lined smirk began to play on his face, "Kagome, why do you look at me so?" She waved her hand at him, "It's nothing, I just noticed something." He tilted his head to the side, perplexed by this miko, "And that may be?" Hesitantly, she tried to fish for an answer, he was not the most forgiving being on this earth. He tapped his claw on the desk awaiting answer, "Ca-go-may," he slowly pronounced her name as to irritate her, "answer me, you wouldn't have said anything in the first place if it was nothing." Fidgeting she started to stutter, why did he have so much of an affect on her? Why could she subdue him like she could his brother?
"Damn it! Why can't I just be able to sit you or something!" In the background a loud crash came to be heard. Soft muffles of "Fuck Kagome! Stop doing that shit!", came from an angry hanyou in the kitchen. Sesshoumaru, still having his head tilted, wondered about this miko, why had he taken her in?
A blast of power came surging from the east, blue and pink waves came crashing down upon everyone. With the speed and grace as he always had, Sesshoumaru flew, he needed to know what created such power. After he found out what created it, he would harness it, and then use it–of course for his own gain.
It was as if everything stopped–nothing compared to it. He wouldn't believe it himself if he didn't see it for himself. There was his brother's wench, fighting against something in herself. Her eyes started cry, she was clawing up at the sky, and she was holding an inaudible scream.
But all of this wasn't right. She was just human, a human miko. Right? Her tears were of blood, she had claws, and ... if her scream was so high pitched it became inaudible... what was she? She couldn't possible be able to cover her own scent?
That's when it happened.. Everything happened... Everything changed... Everyone changed...
That is if you were Kagome and Sesshoumaru.
Her hands surged forward, wrists connected, as a ball of power and light emerged. She yelped at him, in Inu Youkai language, "Stay Calm, No Danger." He was frozen, she had what? And Nodanger? STAY CALM?
It seemed as if his reflexes weren't enough for this woman, the ball of light pulsed then slammed into Sesshoumaru. He didn't seem hurt, yet his pride got the best of him. A human could never catch him off guard! Then this had to mean, she was not human.
He smelled it, she wasn't. Her smell a calm tropical as it may be, started to fade. Sakura blossoms whirlwind into her scent, mixing with the calm of her miko energy. She was Inu Youkai.
She body limply fell to the ground, apparently this was not the easiest task that she had accomplished. Instinctively he caught her in his arms.
Wait, that wasn't right either...
He only had one arm, right?
One arm for Inuyasha cut off his other... yet he looked down again. There it was. He sighed as he picked her up and began walking west.
Oh, that's right... she had helped him... he inhaled her scent, it was calming and invigorating at the same time. He knew he couldn't leave her there. Her body had been brutally beaten by just helping him; he respected her for that–although he wouldn't let her know that.
A giggle escaped from the said woman, only enough to have his attention move towards his stepbrother standing in the doorway. A ramen covered, bowl on head, Inuyasha steamed, "You know, I keep losing my ramen because of you!"
She shrugged at him, "It's not as though you make your own, maybe you could sit with me for supper tonight and we can discuss this sitting problem you have been having lately." She turned on her heel and stormed out, but the only thing she could think about was the small smile that was on Sesshoumaru as he looked as if he was dazed out...
