Ch 2
Special Thanks to The Lost and Broken Butterfly


Now

The servant entered Kagome's bedroom. She walked over to Kagome's side and lightly tapped Kagome on the shoulder. Kagome opened her eyes and looked at the servant. "Hello Kagome, my name is Akira." She said to her. Akira-had cat like ears and golden hair her eyes were a pale blue. "Are you taking me back to Naraku-kun?" she asked. Akira shook her head no.
"No Lord Sesshoumaru wishes me to bring you down for lunch." She told her.
Kagome sat up in the bed she got off the bed and followed Akira down the stairs to the dinning hall.

Akira and Kagome walked into the dinning hall. Sesshomaru had yet to enter the grand hall. Akira walked over to a chair and pulled it out for Kagome as Sesshomaru walked into the room.
Akira looked at Sesshomaru and Sesshomaru dismissed her. Kagome glanced at Sesshomaru and noticed that he was looking at her as well, Kagome quickly put her head down. Sesshomaru chuckled.


"Kagome, do you know why you are here?" Sesshomaru asked her. Kagome shook her head no. "You can speak." Sesshomaru told her. Kagome looked at him.
"With all the respect, you have yet to tell me what to call you." Kagome told him. in a low voice.

"Right you are." Sesshomaru said out loud. Kagome looked back down. "Well, you are no servant or slave, so you will address me as Lord Sesshomaru." He told her. Kagome looked at him. "Um, Lord Sesshomaru, why am I here?" Kagome asked him.

Sesshoumaru didn't went to frighten her if he told her she was there only to drain her blood giving him power. "That village is no place for a young child to be ." he said to her.
Kagome looked at the food on her plate she missed Kaede and Naraku along with the rest of the villagers.
"Will Naraku-kun and Kaede becoming to live here as well?" she asked him.
"No they will not there are in your past." he said to her as Kira came in the room and sat across from Sesshoumaru. "So this is the child how long will she be with us, I hope longer than the last children." she said to him.


Kagome quickly jerked her head towards Sesshomaru. "Kira, you are dismissed.." Sesshomaru told her in a cold voice. Kira sighed.
"How was I suppose to know that you didn’t what her to know master?" Kira asked him as she stood up.
"Lord Sesshomaru, what is she talking about?" Kagome asked him.
"Kira is nothing but a servant, pay no attention to what she says." Sesshomaru said to Kagome as he glared daggers at Kira.
"I'm going to go eat lunch with Akira and give you two some time to talk in private." Kira said and left. Sesshomaru looked over at Kagome. "Eat." He told her.

Kagome sighed as she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat. "I wonder what she is going to taste like." Sesshomaru thought to himself.
"Lord Sesshomaru, you said that Kaede and Naraku where in my past now?" Kagome asked him. "Yes." Sesshomaru told her.
"Then I want to go back to the village." Kagome told him.
"I told you that the village that you lived in was no place for children." Sesshomaru told her. "Well, then are you going to bring the other children here as well?" Kagome asked him.
"No." Sesshomaru told her.
"Your going to let the other children who are close to my age stay in a village that isn’t fit for children?" Kagome asked him. "Yes." Sesshomaru told her.
"Why?" Kagome asked him.
"Because I said so." Sesshomaru told her.
"But that makes little to no sense." Kagome said to him.

"I am a Lord, and the last time I checked, Lords do not have to make sense." Sesshomaru told her. "Is that a law?" Kagome asked him. Sesshomaru didn’t answer her. "If it is a law, then it is a dumb law." Kagome said to him.


"Kagome you will watch your tongue or be punished." he warned her. Kagome sighed she slowly ate her food.
Sesshoumaru watched her as she ate. Kagome placed her pearl chopsticks on the table her mind went back to the last time she was with Naraku.
“Kagome will you be my wife?” Naraku asked her
“Naraku- kun we’re too young.” She said to him.
Kagome smiled at the memory she wanted to see him now. "I hope he's ok." she said aloud. "Who are you talking about?" Sesshoumaru asked her.
"A boy." she said.
"This Naraku?"? he asked her.
Kagome nodded her head. "It will do you well to forget about him." he said.
" But Naraku-kun looks out for me he gives me flowers and kissed me yesterday." she told him.

Sesshomaru almost lost his composure. "He kissed you?" Sesshomaru asked her.
"Yeah, but I pushed him away." Kagome told him.
"Umm." Sesshomaru said out loud.
"Maybe I should have the village burned and this Naraku killed." Sesshomaru thought to himself. "Lord Sesshomaru, what will I be doing here?" Kagome asked him. Sesshomaru looked at the young girl.
"You will be improving your grammar, manners, and a few other skills I might decide to have you par-take in." Sesshomaru told her.
"Can I go outside?" Kagome asked him
. "No, you will not be leaving my sight until I feel that you know for sure that you can not leave this castle." Sesshomaru told her.

"So then I can go outside as long as your with me then?" Kagome asked him as she finished eating. "Maybe in a few weeks I will escort you out side." Sesshomaru told her as he stood up. "Where are you going?" Kagome asked him. Sesshomaru looked at Kagome.
"Follow me." Sesshomaru told her and began to walk off.

Kagome stood up and began to follow Sesshomaru. Kagome stopped walking when she came to a large window. "Don’t even think about it." Sesshomaru told her.
Kagome sighed and began to follow Sesshomaru again. "Where are we going?" Kagome asked him. "To your room." Sesshomaru told her.
"Why? I do not want to go to my room." Kagome told him.
"You need your rest." Sesshomaru told her as they stood at her bedroom door.
"I just woke up." Kagome told him.

Sesshoumaru opened the door Kagome looked at him before going into the room. "Your lessons begin tomorrow." he told her before closing the door and leaving her to her musings.

Sesshoumaru walked back down stairs and saw Hiroshi talking with the guards.
"Lord Sesshoumaru." Hiroshi said bowing. "How is the little one doing?" he asked him.

"Hiroshi follow me." Sesshoumaru said to him.
The general followed Sesshoumaru to his study where he closed the door behind him.
"Tell me did you see any other children when you found her?" he asked him.
"I saw quite a few actually, the village was filled with half demon children as well as human." he said.
"There was even some Priestess there as well." he said.
"Priestess?" Sesshoumaru asked him.
"Yes but all I saw was an older one the other was said to be helping an neighboring village." Hiroshi told him.

Naraku was currently walking into Kaede's hut. "What do you mean that she isn’t back yet!!?" A dark haired young woman half yelled.
"Calm down Kikyou. I'm sure that she got away from them." Kaede told her.
"Kaede, where is Kagome?" Naraku asked her. Kaede looked at Naraku.
"Naraku, she hasn’t came back yet." Kikyou told him.
"Well, then where is she?" Naraku asked them.
"I'm afraid that the guards may have taken her." Kikyou told him.

"But why, we have to find her!" he yelled at them.
"Naraku we will I promise, I believe Kagome is safe, he most likely won't harm her."
Kikyou said as she bent down to Naraku. "No she's dead just like my parent's he said. "
Kikyo sighed. She had been protecting Kagome for as long as she could the one time she goes to help another village Kagome is taken.
She just hoped the 7 year old behaved, she knew that the Western Lord had been searching for Kagome every since she was born, and she had managed to hide Kagome and it became easier to hide her after her parent's had died.
"Naraku I want you to stay with Kaede while I go and look for Kagome." she told him.
"You'll bring her back to me?" he asked her. Kikyo ruffled his black hair.
"I promise." she said and gathered her bow arrows and left to go in search of Kagome.
