Chapter 1: Tingling

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

"Why the hell does it have to be so hot!" Inuyasha muttered under his breath. If Kagome was not riding on his back then she wouldn't have even heard him. Inuyasha, the idiot that he is, has had the group searching for Naraku all day and recently nights too.

To put it simply she was getting sick of it!

"Inuyasha, why don't we stop for a while. We've been going at it all day and even Kirara can't keep up." A swift glance over her shoulder proved correctly. Kirara with her sensitive ears apparently heard Kagome and let out a high-pitched meow.

"Damn it Kagome, all you humans are the same. Naraku is out there gathering more jewel shards and all you guys want to do is lase around in the sun."

She had enough!

"Inuyasha, can you stop? I'm not feeling so good."

He stopped as soon as she uttered the last word and it almost made her feel bad for what she was about to do.

Almost.

"Inuyasha. SIT!"

Kagome stormed away mad at Inuyasha. His face was in the dirt and he was yelling and sputtering every bad word he could think of to the most bottom and furthest reaches of hell.

When Kagome had walked a few yards away, Kirara had touched down with Miroku, Sango, and Shippo. Miroku walked over to her and asked, "Kagome what troubles you?"

"Yeah," said Sango walking up with Shippo perched on her shoulder, "Why did you sit Inuyasha?"

"The jerk deserved it!" She fumed. "I mean, he drags us all over the place and expects us to be energetic and ready to go like he is! I mean, were not half demon or even full demon. Look at Kirara. She looks worse than all of us."

As another answer from the feline demon, she turned into her smaller form and let out another high pitched meow.

"Damn it Kagome! What the hell did you do that for! All of you..."

Unknown to Kagome and Inuyasha, Miroku leaned close to Shippo and whispered, "When will Inuyasha ever learn to never bother a mad Miko?" Shippo felt Sango stiffen and color rise to her face and at that point he knew that the monks hand has wandered on the wrong place yet again."

Shippo said to Miroku, "I'm sure he'll learn as soon as you do."

As soon as Shippo's feet touched the ground he heard the audible sound of a hand hitting a face and Kagome saying, "Sit, sit, SIT!"

Kagome walked away from the offending hanyou and the rest of the group telling everyone to leave her alone and to not bother coming after her for she shall cover her scent and her tracks.

"I can't believe that stupid dog! I'll get him back and I'll go to the only person who he hates the most. Lets see him find one jewel shard without me!"

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

Sesshomaru had felt the presence of that offending wench for days now. At first he paid no mind, but as the presence began to come closer he finally wondered why he was only sensing her presence and not his half-breed brother Inuyasha and the others of their group.

Suddenly her presence disappeared and Sesshoumaru had the strangest urge to know why.

"Jaken."

"Y.. y.. yes mi Lord?"

"Look after Rin. If any harm befalls her I will not hesitate to kill you."

Jaken stuttered a reply that he barely heard as he ran into the surrounding forest towards the last presence of the Miko.

It ended at a small pond.

Looking around, Sesshomaru saw with a swift glance that the Miko's odd clothing were in a pile near a large rock.

Then he looked down.

What he saw had him slightly widening his eyes in surprise.

She was under the water in the middle of the pond which was bathed in sunlight. With Sesshomaru's keen demon eyes, he could see right through the haze and right to her body.

He had to force himself not to let loose the growl that wanted to rip through his body.

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

Kagome has been following Sesshoumaru's aura for days now.

After the first day that she left the group, Kagome had a little time to calm down and think about what she did. Even though Inuyasha was a jerk and did deserve what he got, she should not have had run off like that and left the group with no clue about where she was going.

It was weird because when she started to storm away all she could think of was to get away. To where she didn't know, but Sesshomaru's name popped into her head and all she thought of how it would irk Inuyasha to see her traveling with his group.

She just followed instinct and headed towards the west. Funny how that worked out that he is lord of the west and those are his lands that she was traveling on...

When she left the group, Kagome forgot all about eating and when she finally did settle down to rest, the gnawing pain in her stomach reminded her of the fact.

She went to sleep hungry that night...

The next day Kagome found herself still following instinct and in doing so she found a wonderful bush of berries. When she couldn't eat anymore, Kagome put some away in her pack. Fortunately, it wasn't much inside of it do to the group using all the materials for the past two weeks. All that remained inside was her sleeping bag, another shirt that she used to sleep in, and a couple of changes of under things.

Kagome did not care how much you cleaned... You could never where the same under things Twice...

How she found herself at this pond is still a mystery. All she knew is that it felt wonderful...

She stripped out of her clothing as soon as she saw the shining water. Kagome masked her sent as soon as she jumped in.

The water surrounding her body felt heavenly and when she rose to the top, Kagome gasped for air. It was cool in the water, but the water running over her naked skin was one of the best treats...

Lately it's been so hot out. All she could think of was a nice pool to lay down in, but this is the next best thing if anyone had to ask her...

Kagome dipped back under the water for a long leisurely soak and then that's when she felt it...

It was like a tingling running up and down her spine. She got chills on her arms, and even though the water was cool, her body was already adjusted to it...

'Maybe it's a demon passing by?' She thought. 'I'll just stay under for just a while longer until it passes.'

But the tingling didn't stop.

The burning of her jungs in her chest told her that she needed to come up for air.

The tingling increased and Kagome popped out of the water gulping in a great breath of air. She looked around quickly and searched for her bow and that's when she remembered that the beautiful bow was now buried with the remains of a very large snake demon.

But lucky her, she always kept a dagger close by for times like this.

Looking around, Kagome thought she saw something moving, but she could not tell with all the water dripping from her eyelashes. She made her way to her cloths, covering herself as best she could and searched quickly for her dagger. By the looks of it, it was now missing...

"Damn."

Kagome started to get dressed.

Muttering under her breath she wondered out loud whether she dropped it or not and then chastised herself for even thinking of it because she would have known it if she had. 'Did a demon really come searching through my things and take it?'

That thought she tried to block from her mind because it made her feel dirty all over to even mention it.

She had already put on her underwear and just did up her skirt.

"But," she said to herself, "if a demon had come rummaging through my things then why don't I smell the thing?"

Gasping, Kagome turned around as she heard the voice of the demon she had searched for days now.

The tingling returned!

"This Sesshomaru," He growled, "is Not a thing!"
