He's My World by LittleDragon

Don't Look Away

Demons stormed the castle, while Sesshoumaru looked down. He watched as they slowly hammered down the gates with their heads, claws, or anything they could bang against the door. His eyes filled with anger, as they threatened everything he ever loved.

Kagome stood next to him, cradling their baby boy against her breast, also watching the demons.

"What are we to do my love?" she asked quietly as she tried to soothe her crying baby.

"None of these demons are even remotely strong, they will come, and I will kill them. All I am concerned about is that you and Hiroto are safe and protected." He hugged them close to his side.

Kagome nodded and looked up at the man she loved. He was everything she had ever wanted in a man... and he understood her need to see her family every now and then...

Inuyasha was still around somewhere... Along with all her other friends. Inuyasha hadn't taken it well when she'd fallen in love with his older brother... so he'd stayed away from her for the longest time.

But when he'd heard that she'd had a baby... he hadn't been able to keep himself away... to finally have a family was something that he couldn't pass up.

So they had been a big happy family... until the demons had heard that the Lord of the Western lands had a weakness... then the had come in the thousands to destroy said family.

But it was extremely unlikely. Sesshoumaru was the strongest Demon she knew, Kagome wasn't worried about it... she just wanted to make sure Hiroto was safe... and her husband too.

So she stood by his side, holding their baby, waiting for the demons to breach the walls. Once they were in the castle, there were on Sesshomaru's ground, and that would mean that they were going to die.

She almost felt bad for them, their fate was finite. But it was deserved. The stupid demons, they should know better. Sesshoumaru having a family only made him stronger. And with that strength, he would kill all who threatened him.

"Kagome, you must go to your chambers... do not come out until this battle is over, you and the pup must be safe."

"But Sesshoumaru, I want to fight at your side. Sango can watch over the baby in our chambers, she is more then able. I want to be at your side."

Sesshoumaru looked down at his mate, his eyes softening. He ran his fingers through her beautiful black hair, smiling down at her a smile that he hadn't used until he had found her.

"My love, I would have nothing else." He had learned long back that arguing with her never worked, so he just let her think that she would be fighting... he might even let her kill a demon or two. He knew her strength. He just wanted her safe.

Kagome went to her tiptoes and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"I will be right back..."

She went off with her baby hugged close to her, looking for Sango. He watched her leave, and then turned back to the crowd of demons, just as they burst through the first door of three to his castle.

Knowing he still had time, he strolled off into the hall to check the position of his men.

"Inuyasha!" he yelled, looking around for the idiot... no matter how many years he had to deal with that boy, he knew he would never be able to tolerate his ignorance.

"What the fuck do you want?" he asked coming from around one from a hallway corner.

Rolling his eyes, Sesshoumaru took an assessment of the boy... scrubby as usual.

"Are the troops ready?" he drolled, still walking slowly down the hall, not waiting for the whelp.

"What? Are you worried? The great and Powerful lord afraid of a few dumb demons? Your losing your touch."

"You are an idiot Inuyasha, I want them to protect my mate. That is all."

Inuyasha nodded as he understood, and kept his mouth shut. When it came to Kagome, he didn't tease Sesshoumaru for fear of his life.

Kagome met Sesshoumaru down the next hall, a smile lighting up her feature as she grabbed his hand.

"Ready to do this?" she asked.

He nodded as he noted the bow and arrows slung over her right shoulder. She was so strong, he loved her so much.

They made it downstairs just in time to see the demons break through the third and final door. They swarmed up and around, attacking everyone and anything in their path.

Sesshoumaru snarled under his breath and started slaying demons.

Pink arrows lit up the courtyard as Kagome helped kill also.

He was so proud of her as he watched, making sure nothing happened to her in the process.

Inuyasha sliced and diced all demons in his path, and all together, they were an excellent team. Until he made one error...

He took his eyes off of Kagome.

*********************************************************************************************************************************

She was distracted by Sesshoumaru.

She's been fighting off the demons, but saw a blurr of white and red swirling around her, killing demons at every turn. She'd seen him fight before, but MAN! Did he turn her on when he fought like that!

Of course those were horrible thoughts to think when you were surrounded by demons and should really be paying attention to what your doing. And alas, that was how she was attacked.

As soon as she took her eyes off the demons that were attacking her, and put them on the demon she loved, they took that chance to take her town.

Demons swarmed all over her, she tried to use her bow and arrows, but there were two demons latched to her arms, holding her down.

She let out a very loud scream, jarring some of the demons and scaring them off, but the others just growled back and went for her throat.

They didn't make it that far. Sesshoumaru whip slashed through them, and so did his claws.

He growled out his anger in deep rumbles, his eyes turning red when he saw that Kagome was bleeding. He knelt down next to her and pulled her into his arms.

"I'm so sorry," he breathed. "I should have been paying attention. Will you ever forgive this Sesshoumaru?"

Kagome wrapped her arms around Sesshoumaru, wincing in pain at the bites that the demons had given her.

"I should have been paying attention my love, It's my fault. Don't stress about it!" she laughed.

He pulled back and looked at her, taking in her sweet smile with a frown.

"Your not allowed to fight anymore, nor are you allowed to leave the castle without an escort... I don't like the idea of my mate getting hurt and me not there to stop it."

"Oh, quit frowning! I'm ok, just a few cuts... nothing major! And if I'm not allowed to leave the castle without an escort, then your not allowed to either."

She gave him that look that told him that he wasn't going to win this one, and he gave her a look back that he was determined.

Which one was worse, no one knew, But Inuyasha knew that, as he continued to slice and dice demons, that they were both lazy sons of bitches!

"Yo, a bit of help over here? These demons aren't killing themselves you know."

Sesshoumaru growled at his stupid half brother, then looked back down at his mate.

"You will go in the castle."

She scowled at him. "Kagome," she mimicked him, "Would you please go into the castle to get those wounds looked at, I don't want you to get an infection in them or anything. Oh, and I love you."

She stood up and brushed herself off, sending him a glare that told him this SO wasn't over...

She strolled toward the castle, and when she got out of his sight, she leaned against the wall holding her arms closing her eyes tight in pain.

Oh that had hurt! She really wished she could have avoided that! Stupid demons! Including hers! Gawd!

Who did he think he was to tell her what to do?! Of course he was her husband and he cared for her, and all he was was looking out for her... but he could have at least been nice about it!

Instead, he was mean, and told her what to do... and didn't even speak kindly to her... it had been gruff and 'you do what I tell you!' act.

Grr... she opened her eyes and nearly jumped out of her skin. He was standing in front of her, concern darkening his eyes.

"Are you ok? I just came to see that you got to the castle ok... and I found you standing here like this..." he walked up to her and pulled her into his arms gently, running his hands down her back.

"I love you Kagome... I just don't want you to get hurt. You know that right?"

Kagome tightened her arms around him, laying her head on his shoulder.

"I know... it's just that your so mean sometimes... I wish you could always be the nice sweet demon that I fell in love with... but that's asking too much isn't it?" she sighed.

Sesshoumaru leaned down and scooped her into his arms, running her to the castle at lightening speed, and setting her down on the bed.

"I'll get the nurse, and later when I'm not busy we will finish this discussion, until then, rest..."

He went to walk out the door, the looked back at her.

"Please?"

He stepped out the door, and disappeared... back out to battle.
