A/N: Hello readers! Here I am writing another story. You can find me also on fanfiction.net

I’m a college student taking 19 credits so I rarely have any time to write. However, there are times when I am especially feeling creative I have to write it down right away. For a long time, I’ve wanted to write a Sesshomaru/Kagome fanfiction. This actually is my favorite pairing. One day this story rushed into my mind, and I’ve been inspired ever since. So here it is…Oblitus

Chapter 1 – Awakening

Cold was the last thing she remembered, being so cold and lonely.

The girl jolted, sitting up, out of her nightmares. Pain quickly shot through her body. ‘That hurts! Okay, I need to lie down….Wait, where am I?’ The girl slowly sat up again and took in her surroundings. ‘I’m in someone’s home, I think…’ The girl looked down and saw that her torso was completely wrapped in bandages. She could smell dried blood. ‘What happened to me?!?!?’  The girl panicked. She didn’t know what else to do. The girl began to shiver and her heart began to race.

The girl’s head snapped towards shoji screen as three young female youkai entered the room. One was holding a large basin of water. Another was holding multiple towels and bandages. The last female was holding a tray of food. The three females approached the bed slowly.

“Who…who are you?” The girl asked cautiously.

“Do not be afraid young miko,” The youkai holding the tray of food spoke, “We are not here to hurt you. Now that you are awake, we simply would like to offer you food. It has been a while, by my guess, since you have last eaten. We also would like to bathe you and apply fresh bandages to your wounds.”

“You still didn’t answer my question. WHO ARE YOU?” The girl shouted in frustration.

“Oh, I am sorry my lady. I am Ami, and these are my two sisters, Emi and Yumi.” Kagome studied each of the three sisters. They were almost identical, except for their hair, equal in length but not in color. Ami’s hair was as red as a rose. Emi’s hair was platinum blond. While Yumi’s hair was a strawberry blonde color. All three of them had pointed ears, green eyes, hair down to their knees, and white kimonos with a crescent moon stitched onto the back.

“Where am I?” The girl asked.

“You are in Lord Sesshomaru’s home.” Ami spoke, “He found you buried in the snow while he has patrolling his lands a little over a week ago.”

“Wait, I’ve been sleep for ever a week! Lord Sesshomaru? Who’s that?” The girl asked. Why would some stranger, especially a youkai, save her life?

“I am sorry my lady, but are you not Lady Kagome? You are affiliated with Lord Sesshomaru’s half-brother, Inuyasha.”

“Kagome? So that’s my name. Inuyasha how am I affiliated with him?” Kagome had never been so confused in her life. ‘Wait a second, I don’t remember my life!’ Kagome began to panic again. This couldn’t be happening. How could she not remember who she was, where she came from, and what happened in her past.

A worried look came over Ami and her sisters. Each of them shared glances with one another. “She doesn’t remember a thing!” Emi whispered to Yumi.

“Lady Kagome, it is better to ask Lord Sesshomaru these questions, for he can answer them better. “ Ami ensured her, “Speaking of the lord, I can hear him coming down the hallway.”

“Lord Sesshomaru, I think it would be better to wait until Kagome has regained some of her strength.” They all could hear from outside the room.

“This Sesshomaru cares not what you think Jaken. If the girl is awake now, so I must question her.” A deep voice responded before opening the shoji screen. A male youkai entered the room; it was as if all the air was being sucked out of it.

Kagome shivered as she studied the male. He was very tall indeed and handsome too. His hair has as white as snow and there were two magenta stripes on each of his cheeks. There also was a purple crescent moon that graced his forehead. Also, there was this fluffy thing that wrapped around his right shoulder. Kagome glanced down at this youkai’s claws. Those things looked like they killed many ningen and youkai alike. Kagome also noticed the sword sheathed in his obi. Although this youkai was beautiful, there was a coldness to him. Kagome could tell this man had power, and lots of it.

“Miko, would you like to explain why you were left out in the snow with serious wounds to die and why were you on my lands without permission?” Lord Sesshomaru spoke in an angry tone.

Kagome looked into the male’s eyes and completely froze. She didn’t know what to say to this man nor did she want to say anything to him. She also didn’t expect this man to be so angry with her for a reason unknown to her.

“Miko, I will not repeat myself.” This girl would not try his patience, “Answer the question.”

“I don’t know what to tell you. I don’t remember anything.” Kagome responded while pulling up the sheets to cover her body and save the embarrassment.

“Lord Sesshomaru, may I speak?” Ami bowed to her lord.

“Speak.” Lord Sesshoumaru’s baritone voice commanded

“The miko just informed my sisters and I that she remembers absolutely nothing. She does not remember who she is or anything before she woke up a few minutes ago.” Ami informed the lord.

‘Interesting.’ Sesshomaru thought to himself. “Miko, I am Lord Sesshomaru, lord of the western lands. The reason I know you is because, from what I know, you used to travel with my half-brother. You are also the one who delivered the final blow that killed Naraku. For that, I will allow you to stay in my home to seek medical attention. Ami and her sisters will explain the rules you must follow while you stay here. Once you are healed, you must leave. Miko I shall question you on some more at a later time.”

After that Sesshomaru turned and left the room. Kagome just sat there dumbfounded. People kept mentioning this Inuyasha person. ‘Wow, he’s mean. And who was Naraku? Final blow? I killed this person? I am capable of killing another person?’ This was all too much information in too little time.

“Lady Kagome,” Ami spoke, “if you allow us to help you out of bed, we would like to bathe you now.”

“Yes, I could sure use the help, but I can bathe myself.” Kagome protested

“Nonsense, rule number one, we are your servants, and it is our job to take care of you make sure you are presentable.” Ami responded as her and her sisters began to help Kagome out of the bed. Kagome decided not to argue with Ami. She was in too much pain to argue.

As Ami, Emi and Yumi were helping Kagome bathe, Kagome noticed there was a mirror at the far end of the room. She stared at her reflected from her position. She saw that she wasn’t exactly tall compared to Lord Sesshomaru. She had long raven-colored hair that flowed to her mid-back. Her skin was a little on the pale side, but that could be because she had just woken up fro a coma.  She was somewhat curvaceous and her eyes where grey.

‘At least I’m not ugly.’ Kagome thought to herself. She had to bring a little funny into this terrible situation. ‘Kagome, they say my name is. Well Kagome….”

“Who are you?” Kagome whispered to herself

-oOo-

“You requested to see me Lord Sesshoumaru?”

“Yes Satoru, what have you learned about the recent events in the East?” Lord Sesshomaru looked up from his paper work to ask.

“Well it seems that there has been slaughtering in the east. Who is to blame we do not know. Rumors are circling that the Eastern Lord is sending troops because this is likely the work of a group of youkai. As old as I am Lord Sesshomaru, I have never seen anything like this.” Satoru responded.

“What about Inuyasha?” Lord Sesshomaru questioned.

“Reports confirm that he is indeed dead Lord Sesshomaru. The whole village where he resided was completely whipped out including women and children.” Satoru answered.

This struck a nerve in Sesshomaru. The whole village whipped out? Especially when…“What about Rin?”

“I am sorry Lord Sesshomaru, but she is de…”

Before Satoru could finish his words he was pinned up against the nearest wall, Lord Sesshomaru launched his sword into Satoru’s heart. Satoru looked up to his lord, who was towering over him, his facial expressions showing his hurt from his master slaying him. The lord’s eyes bled red. Sesshomaru removed the sword from Satoru’s flesh. Satoru slid down the wall leaving a trail of blood.

‘Not Rin. Anyone but Rin. She cannot be dead!’ She was his ward and he wasn’t there to save her. She was just a child. For the first time since his childhood, Sesshoumaru felt agony. He needed to kill and he would get his revenge.

 A/N: So there’s the first chapter. I’m not going to make the chapter super long so that it doesn’t take me long to update. Each chapter will contain only about 1,000 words or so. So I hope this story has caught your interest. This is my first time writing for this pairing so I hope it is to your liking. If it takes me a while to update, again, I am a college student taking 19 credits and I don’t have that much free time. I promise

So please comment on this story. If anyone out there likes to do fanart, I don’t mind at all people doing artwork based on my stories. Well, until next time!
