Chapter Seven

~One hour before Sunset~

"Rin!" Call out Kagome. "Rin! There you are!"

She turned to her sister.

She ran to her and stopped for a few breaths. "I've been looking all over for you!"

Rin cocked her head to the side as in saying. I was in the garden remember?

"Yes I know you where but I didn't see you there at all."

Her mouth formed an 'o'.

"Well we better get dressed!" Kagome said to her.

The youngest sister looked at her questioningly.

"Oh Sayla told me that they're having a few guest over and she invited us." Kagome said smiling.

Rin slowly nodded.

"Well," said a voice behind her. "You'd better get to it!"

They turned around. It was none other than Kalya.

She had her arms crossed. "They'll be here quite after sunset."

"Alright." Kagome nodded smiling a bit.

Kalya smiled weakly and turned around walking to her chambers.

Kagome looked a bit puzzled but then lead Rin to their given chambers.

------------------------------------------

Inside their chambers..well Rin's chambers; Kagome was searching for the kimonos but with no luck.

"Where'd they put them?" Kagome said half to herself. Rin was sitting on the edge of the bed looking down.

"Mi'ladies." A voice said behind the door knocking in the process.

"Come in?" Kagome said not really knowing what to say. Rin merly turned her head to see who it was.

The door opened and entering were two maids. The one in front was a neko youkai (A/N: is that right?O.o) who had short blue hair a bit past her shoulders. She wore a simple plain gray kimono. She had purple eyes, pale skin and even gray cat ears on top of her head. The other seemed like a dog demon who wore a black kimono with white flower branches outlined with silver-gray. She had silver hair past her waist her bangs coming in front. Her eyes were blue and her skin light brown.

"We brought you the kimonos." The neko said.

"Thank you...um..?"Kagome said not knowing the cat or dog demon's name.

"Shuyi." Answered the neko.

"And I'm Reysan." Answered the dog demon bowing the cat demon, too, bowing.

They carried a handful of colorful and extremely royal and expensive-looking kimonos, bowing, as they laid in their arms.

"Where shall we put these mi'ladies?" They asked done bowing.

Kagome thought. "Uh...on the bed please?"

They turned and put them on the bed were Rin sat.

"We hope you find what you desire." Shuyi said bowing.

"Be careful..." Reysan warned and they both left without another comment or word closing the door behind them.

'Huh?' Kagome thought. 'Be careful..?'

She then walked to Rin's bed a frown on her face.

"Which one you want to wear Rin?" Kagome said sweetly her frown vanishing quickly.

Rin, still on the bed's edge, looked thought the many kimonos. She then found one and gave a small smile.

The eldest smiled. "I think it would look beautiful on you..."

------------------------------------------

*~Kalya's Chambers~*

"Damn." She muttered.

Sayla came in. "What is it?"

"Nothing." Kalya mumbled.

"It's her isn't it?"

"Hmph."

"I'll take that as a yes."

"I hate that witch!"

"Oh?"

"I hate him too!"

"Sesshomaru and Inu-Yasha do too..."

"So?" Kalya hissed.

"You do too don't you?" She said to her sister even though the answer was obvious and was said.

"I do hate him I hate his daughter the most."

"Who wouldn't?"

"He's a sneaky one that's all I can say."

"Yes...He wanted, and still wants, the Western Lands so he betrothed her to Sesshomaru. Inu No Tashio(sp?) agreed; back then the lands were in chaos and to "stop" it two lands had to unite..."

Sayla just nodded. "I agree...but.."

"Nevermind." Kalya said shaking her head. "They'll be here in a little bit..."

"Yes," Sayla said looking out the window that was facing the sun. It was slowly sinking.

"Inu-Yasha is going to be devastated." Sayla said shaking her head sadly, looking away.

Kalya agreed. "Now I feel guilty lying to him.."

"It was the only option." The girl said. "If he did find out at that moment where she is, what happen to her..he'd go mad!"

She nodded sadly. "He would have Sayla...He would have."

"And she's coming here with them with her that--that--slut!" Kalya snalred suddenly.

"Calm down!" Sayla commanded. "She is with them now I know you hate her but that is enough...She died; now she's only clay and bones living off dead women souls."

Kalya slowly calmed but she glared at nothing. "Yes and that girl is her reincarnation..."

Sayla nodded. "Yes the girl is the reincarnation..."

"The reincarnation..." Kalya repeated the last verse. Together they said in the same voice and breath.

"...Of Kikyo..."

------------------------------------------

~An hour after Sunset~

Sesshomaru and Inu-Yasha were sitting at the dining table. Inu-Yasha was muttering curses under his breath while Sesshomaru looked bored and annoyed.

The two grand doors opened revialing(sp?) Kagome and Rin.

Kagome wore an elegant kimono. It was peach colored with shaded pinkish-red on the shoulders on the shoulders. A red medium flower on the right shoulder and it's leaves. It was also on the left and right(kimono) waist and had bell-shaped sleeves. It was not the thick kind of kimono but a slim-like kind showing the curves of her body.

Rin on the other hand...She wore a red kimono with a peach-colored flower on her left shoulder and it's small three star-like leaves at the side of it. Above the flower was a dark red half ring-like ring. It was also on her bell-shaped kimono sleeves. A few strands of her hair were in beads. The front of her hair and strands, three beaded pairs, were in the back. The kimono was a bit thin showing the curves of her body also.(A/N: I know I'm not good at describing things...and the descriptions are strange and confusing butto tell you...the two are beautiful! Gomen for my bad descriptions...-.-' I guess I leave it to your imagination? -shrugs-)

Kalya, who just came in, nearly fell down to the side seeing them.

"Are those the same girls we just "rescued"?" She said wide-eyed.

"You're having a ball aren't you?" Sayla said coming in looking at the two humans astonished.

Inu-Yasha stared wide eyed at Kagome speechless.

Sesshomaru on the other hand was practically eyeing every part of Rin's body...intrested. (A/N: No no he ain't thinking about THAT!--Yet...)

"Yes we are!" Myoga said appearing out of nowhere and jumping up and down on Kalya's shoulder only to be flicked off somewhere.

"Um...Hi?" Kagome said turning pink.

Rin looked at the ground nervous.

Kalya side glanced at Sesshomaru who kept his eyes glued to Rin. Sayla side glanced at Inu-Yasha who was drooling.

The two demoness sighed. This was going to be a LONG, long night.

------------------------------------------

~An hour and a half later; Close to Nightfall~

Demon lords and ladies came to the "ball". There were many species; dog, horse, dragon, cat, snake, rat, and many others that couldn't be described.

The servents all rushed to get some sake for the lords or ladies who wanted it.

The ball's dance floor was filled with demons.

"This is new..." Kagome said looking at the many demons not noticing her arm was slipped around Inu-Yasha who, indeed, noticed it and shifted uncomfortably.

"Um...Kagome?" Kalya said looking at the closeness of Inu-Yasha and Kagome raising an eyebrow. "Er..."

"Huh?" She said and looked. She gluped and blushed red and pulled her arm away. "Er...oops?"

Rin was standing behind Inu-Yasha and Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru kept his focus on the demon lords and ladies. Trying not to look at Rin every single time he turned.

'Why does this human intrests me?' He thought silently cursing himself.

He growled when he scented the person he'd hated most.

'Damn...' He thought.

"Sesshy!" Cried a voice.

If he were someone else he'd would've rolled his eyes but he was a inuyokai of the West and was a "cold-hearted killer".

He felt arms wrap around his waist.

"Sesshy!" She said again smiling, a fake sweet smile, looking up at him. "It's nice to see you again."

"What do you want...Kagura?" He growled grabbing her arms unwrapping them from his waist.

"I want to see my fiancee(sp?)." She said stepping back looking at him.

Sayla snorted. "Wearing that same outfit?"

Kagura glared. "I'm a wind user after all."

Rin, who didn't notice she was clinging to Sesshomaru's sleeve, stepped closer to him.

Kalya looked at the two closely and let out a low whistle.

Sayla looked at Kalya. 'Are you doing this to them?'

'No.'

'You did didn't you?'

'I DID NOT!'

'Don't lie!'

'I'm NOT lying!'

'If you're not doing it...then who is?'

'It's just a common mistake...or in our case..a miracle!'

'Shut up.'

Sayla then looked around.

Kagura finally noticed Rin. "Who are you human?"

Rin looked at her still not noticing she was clinging to Sesshomaru. He on the other hand noticed but acted normal as if she wasn't.

"Her name's Rin." Kalya growled.

"What is she doing touching my Sesshomaru?" Kagura snapped.

'Huh?'

Rin was confused.

"Wench." Sesshomaru growled. "This Sesshomaru doesn't belong to you."

"Kagura..." Said a haunting voice. He had long raven black hair and haunting red eyes. "Don't be so rude.."

"Naraku..." Inu-Yasha growled.

Rin looked at him and stiffened a bit.

"Nice to meet you...?" He said smiling.

"Kagome." Kagome said. "And this is Rin."

He smiled which seemed more like a smirk or sneer. "Lady Kagome, Lady Rin."

He taking their hands and kissed them.

Kagome blushed when he let go but on the other hand Rin quickly took it back and held onto Sesshomaru's arm. Half noticing and half not.

Sayla glared at Kalya.

'I didn't do anything! ' She said bringing her hands up.

Sayla turned to the others. "Kagome. Rin. This is Naraku Lord of the Southern lands. His daughter Kagura."

He smiled bowing. "Kanna, Hakudoshi, Juromaru and Kageromaru are somewhere around here."

Sayla just nodded faking her politeness. She smiled. "Well Inu-Yasha and his...date are going to dance with the others right?"

"W-What?" Kagome and Inu-Yasha said together.

"RIGHT?" She said firmly.

Inu-Yasha glupped and quickly nodded. Kagome was a bit wide-eyed but nodded.

"Oh?" Naraku said hiding a smirk. "I want you to meet my mate.."

"Who's she?" Kalya asked curiously.

Kagura was glaring at Rin the whole time. She was holding onto him like a lost friend or lover and Sesshomaru acted as if it wasn't nothing!

"I'm right here.." Said a cool voice.

Kalya stiffened and Sayla stepped back.

Inu-Yasha's ears perked up. "K-Kikyo?"
