Foolish Games

Chapter XII: Return to the Castle….

They sat around the fire with Sesshoumaru far away from them. She knew he didn’t feel comfortable with them and neither did her friends. She didn’t expect them to accept Sesshoumaru in one day especially since they had never been on the best of terms. Okay, that was an understatement but still getting all of them in the same place without blood spilling was an accomplishment.

Sango had made them dinner. Sesshoumaru had politely refused. She knew he must be hungry since he hasn’t eaten much in the past three days. She was worried about him even if he was demon he still need nourishment. She sighed. She knew whatever she said wouldn’t changed his mind so she let it go.

She told her friends about what happen. She told them about the scroll, her dreams and what just happen to cause her transformation. She didn’t left anything out except her relationship with Sesshoumaru. She still wasn’t ready to tell them about that yet. She’d tell them, soon but not tonight.

“Well that’s my story.” She laughed nervously.

“So how do you summon…your…sisters?” Sango asked.

“I don’t know yet. I guess I would need a summoning spell.” She turned to Sesshoumaru. “Say, Sesshoumaru, do you think that spell book I found in the library would have a summoning spell.”

“I suppose. We would have to return to the castle to find out.”

“I guess but I wanted to go home first.”

“Lady Kagome, may we accompany you?” Miroku said.

“Home?”

“No, to lord Sesshoumaru’s castle.”

“If he wants.”

“Would you ask him?” Sango asked.

“What don’t you ask him? I promise he won’t bite.” She laughed.

Sango glared at her but Kagome just smiled.

“Fine”

It was almost nightfall and they would need to set camp soon and she wanted to go home. She needed to get some more clothes more specifically underwear. She didn’t want to walk all over feudal Japan in current outfit without clean panties. She also needed to get a few personal items and some food. She missed her family and she wanted to see them. She wondered how she was going to explain to her mom her transformation. She rather have done and over with as soon as possible.

“Well, I’m going tonight and I’ll come tomorrow.”

“Okay, we’ll see you later.”

Sango hugged her and Miroku waved. Inuyasha feh’ed and went back to his sulking.

“Wanna walk with to the well?” She asked Sesshoumaru.

He nodded. They walked in silence till the dry well.

“Would you be staying with the others?”

He shook his head.

“I thought so. Where would you go then?”

“I need to go hunter but I will be here when you returned.”

“Okay. I’ll try to come back soon.”

She kissed his cheeks but he wasn’t satisfied with that. He turned his face and captured her lips with his.

“I’ll see you tomorrow.”

She nodded. She then jumped into the well. The familiar light passed by and no time she was home. She climbed out of the well and out of the shrine. She was surprise when she saw that the lights in the house were off. Where was her family? She knew they couldn’t have possibly gone to bed this early.

It was as she had suspected. She found a note taped to the door from her mother. Grandpa had gone to a convention for the weekend. Her mother and Souta had gone along to keep him in line. She slimed as she read the note. Her mother had left food and other necessities that she usually took with her to the feudal era. After packing her back with food and other things, she went to her room to get some clothes. She packed a second bag with clothes. She chose a couple of jeans and a few t-shirt but mostly panties and bras. She dumped her dirty clothes in the hamper. She bathed and washed her hair then soaked in the warm water for a while. After changing in her pajamas, she went to bed.

She slept peacefully that night. No dreams or nightmares plagued her rest and when she roused in the morning, she was feeling quite refresh and ready to face another day. She made her bed before she took a quick shower. She dressed a pair of faded blue jeans, a green t-shirt and faded blue denim jacket. She kept her boots on because they looked good with her jeans. She stuffed her chest armor in her bag of clothes and gathered her weapons before she went downstairs. She grabbed a quick breakfast while writing a note for her mother promising to come back soon. She flung her bag of clothes across her shoulders and carried the other one to the shrine. She dropped the yellow bag in first before she jumped after it.

She knew she was coming back sooner than she said she would. She was surprised to find Sesshoumaru waiting for her. He was sitting on a tree branch.

“Good morning, Sesshoumaru.”

“Good morning, Kagome.”

“What are you doing here? I thought you said you had to go hunting.”

“I did and now I’m done.”

“Oh, well. Let’s go back to camp, shall we?”

He jumped down and landed silently on his feet.

“Sesshoumaru?’

“Yes?”

“Would you mind if my friends go to the western lands with us? I promise to keep them in line.”

“I suppose it’d be alright.”

“Great. Thanks.”

“Think nothing of it.”

Her friends were already up when they arrived at camp.

“Good morning, lady Kagome, lord Sesshoumaru.” Miroku said.

Kagome smiled. Sesshoumaru only nodded.

“Morning, guys.”

“Morning, Kagome.”

“Are you guys ready to go?” She asked.

“Go where, Lady Kagome?”

“To the Western Lands.”

“Sure.” Sango said.

Miroku nodded.

“Inuyasha? Are we coming with us?”

“Whatever.”

“Great. Let’s get going.”

Kirara transformed into her bigger form. Sango asked Kagome if she wanted her to carry one of her bag. She gave him the yellow since the other black one had her clothes in it. Sango and Miroku rode Kirara. Sesshoumaru offered his hand to Kagome and she took it. He formed his youki cloud at their feet and sat with Kagome on his lap. The Taiyoukai didn’t miss the look of anger that crossed his half-brother’s face. He smirked and Inuyasha growled. Kagome didn’t hear it if she did she showed no sign of it.

Their journey was done is silence. Well not completely. Kagome was deep in conversation with Sesshoumaru about the summoning. Miroku and Sango were talking about god knows what but if she had to take a guess, she’d say that it was about her and Sesshoumaru. Inuyasha was in front and sulking by himself.

They arrived at the castle mid afternoon. As soon as Sesshoumaru put her down, Kagome was attacked by two energy balls.

“Kagome-sama.”

“Mama, you’re back.”

While Shippo attacked her with questions, Rin ran to her father-figure and attached herself to his leg.

“Hi Sesshoumaru-sama. Rin missed you.”

“Hello, Rin. How are you?”

“Rin is well. Are you well, Sesshoumaru-sama?”

“I’m fine, Rin. Where’s Jakken?”

The little toad demon came running from the castle.

“I’m here, Sesshoumaru-sama.”

“Prepare rooms for our guests.”

“Hai, my lord.”

“I have work to do. I’ll see you all at dinner.”

He left them standing and went inside.

“Asshole.” Inuyasha mumbled.

“Inuyasha, don’t swear in front of Shippo.”

“He didn’t even hear me.”

It was true. Shippo didn’t hear him since he was busy talking with Miroku.

“Come on, I’ll show inside.”

They met with Jakken I half way. He grudgingly showed them to their room all the while murmuring about filthy humans. Rin threatened to tell Sesshoumaru and he was silent. Sango’s room was across Kagome’s. Miroku and Inuyasha’s rooms were at the end of the hall.

“I have to go to the library. Send Rin or Shippo to find me if you need me.”

They nodded and she left them. On her way out, she heard Rin and Shippo offered to gave them a tour of the castle. Inuyasha refused and slammed the door in their faces but Sango and Miroku accepted.

She went to the library as she said she would after she dropped her bag of clothes in her room. She wanted to find that book again. She was hoping there might be a summoning spell in there. She desperately wanted to put an end to this goddess mystery and go back to the way things were before. She was a little anxious though. What if she didn’t like the way things turned out? What if she didn’t like being a goddess? And also when she performed the summoning, she would gain the rest of her memory and remembered why she wasn’t made a deity after her punishment was over. Did she really want to know what she did?

She sighed. Of course she wanted. She didn’t care about whatever it is she had done. Whatever it was, she must have had a good reason to do. It took a while for to find the damn book. The servants must have placed back to where it belonged since she had left it lying around.

She flipped through looking for anything that looked like a summoning spell. She didn’t find anything. To say that she was frustrated was an understatement. She looked around for more books. Surely, there were more than one spell books in the entire library. Kagome turned the library upside down and still she didn’t find a single book with a summoning spell.

When Sesshoumaru entered the library, he was momentarily stunned. His beloved books were thrown all over the floor and piled of top of each other. And Kagome was still skimming through the rest.

“What are you doing?” He asked.

“Oh! Sesshoumaru.”

“What are you searching?”

“A spell. I can’t find one.”

“Did you look in the miko spell book?”

“Yes, but I didn’t find anything.”

He sighed in frustration.

“Come with me.”

“What about the library?”

“I’ll send someone to fix it.”

She followed him to his study.

“Sit.” He ordered.

She did as he asked and sat down. He searched around his shelf for a few minutes before he found he was looking for.

“Here. This might help you.”

He handed her scroll. It contained the instructions that she needed. It told of what she needed but no spell.

“There’s no spell in here.”

Sesshoumaru was sitting behind his desk once more. He raised his head and looked at her.

“Then write one.”

“You want me to write a spell?”

“Yes, if you need one, write one.”

“I can’t write a spell.”

“Why not.”

“Because my rhyming sucks.”

He handed her a piece of paper and writing tools.

“Then I wish you luck.”

She glared at him but he just smirked.

“You know, this is all your fault.” She said.

“And why am I being blamed for this?”

“Well since I met you, well rather since you made me that crazy offer, my life had turned upside down.”

Suddenly he was by her side, whispering in her ears.

“Would you have me turn it upside up again.”

He nuzzled her neck and gently laid kisses there.”

“Mmmm…”

He hoisted her up and pulled close to his body. His left arm around her waist and his right held her face close to his. He captured her lips with his and gave her a deep kiss. Their tongues wrestled in their mouth, battling for dominance. He let his hand explored her luscious body, down her ribcage, and over the flat plane of her belly. He caressed her stomach before bringing his hands back up to cup her full pert breasts. She moaned as he ran his fingers over her erect nipples. He rolled the little peaks between his fingers, never breaking their kiss. He continued playing with her breasts while she touched his chest. He felt her dainty little fingers running across his chest, teasing his male nipples through the fabric of his clothes. He moaned and finally broke the kiss. She took the opportunity to kiss his jaw and nibbled on his earlobes.

She kissed his neck and collarbone. After some difficulties, she finally untied his sash. He heard his sword fell on the ground but he paid no mind to them. He just concentrated on the pleasure she was giving him. His haori fell around them and she trailed her lips down his muscled chest. She sucked on his nipples then flicked them with her tongue. He groaned out loud. Kagome ran her hand down and pushed down his hakamas. Once she got those off, she wrapped her small fingers around his shaft. She started pumping his erection up and down.

Sesshoumaru felt like he was going to explode. He wanted her so badly and if he didn’t join with her soon, he would explode. He gently pried her hand away form his aching member. She looked at him, confused. He kissed her in explanation. He made quick work of her clothes and soon she was standing in font of him in all her glory. She wrapped her hands around his neck as he lifted her up. She wrapped her legs around his waist. He couldn’t wait anymore. He held her waist and slipped his aching flesh into her hot core. They both groaned.

Their lovemaking was hard and fast. It felt too long since they loved each other so intimately. His thrusts were hard, deep, and fast. And before long, they both tumbled over the edge in an explosive climax. They stayed like that until their erratic breathing returned to normal. Sesshoumaru let Kagome down slowly until her feet touched the floor.

“You know that’s not what I meant.” She said.

“Are you complaining, my lady?”

“Never.”

He kissed her slowly.

“We need to bathe. It’d be diner time soon.”

She nodded.
