Sesshomaru in Love!

Chapter 8

A/N: I'm sorry I haven't updated. I found out that I'm not leaving this week and now, I have more than enough time to update the rest of the story and write more chapters.

I turned around and saw Inuyasha's group. They stopped in their tracks and looked at me. "Why are you here?" Inuyasha asked. I walked closer to them and touched Inuyasha's ears. He backed away from me, feeling awkward. I stepped away from the group.

"I ran away from someone. I have nowhere to go now," I said, looking down at the ground. Kagome walked up to me and gave me a hug. My eyes looked over her shoulder and refused her hug. I walked backwards and didn't realize that I was only inches away from falling into the well. The back of my legs hit the wall of the well and I fell in. The last moment I saw was Kagome, Sango, and the rest of the group looking down the well. A purple glow surrounded me. I closed my eyes, thinking what was going to happen to me. The sound of nothing sunk in my ears. What happened? I wondered. I opened my eyes and found myself in some dark place.

"Hey! Kagome is back!" a little boy's voice yelled through the well. I looked up to see what the boy looked like. His head poked through the darkness and his eyes looked at me. "Who are you," he asked.

"I'm Michiko. You are," I asked. The boy answered, "Souta." I smiled at him.

"Can you help me out of here," I asked. He nodded his head and told me to climb the ladder that was thrown down on the side. I slowly climbed out of the well when another purple glow appeared. My head looked down and saw Kagome. "Hi, Kagome," I said as I was half way up the ladder. Minutes later, Kagome, Souta, and I were in Kagome's home. It was nice, but I didn't understand anything in the home. "Oh, who is this young lady sitting next to you, Kagome," a woman who looked almost like Kagome said. She had a smile on her face and she sat at the table with us.

"I'm Michiko. Nice to meet you," I said as I bowed a little. She bowed back in a kindly manner and she got up and said, "I'm going to make dinner. Would you like to join us for dinner, Michiko?" I looked over at Kagome and she was shaking her head, no. "Mom, she has to go back to Inuyasha's time," Kagome said while she stood up and pushed her chair back. The chair fell to the floor and made a loud noise. A grumpy groan came from upstairs. The noise got closer and closer until it reached the dining room. "What is with all the noise," the old man that came with the grumpy groan. I stood up and bowed to acknowledge his presence. He looked at me confused and sat at his seat at the dinner table. Kagome's mother served dinner to all of us at the table and then Souta joined us. We ate dinner and talked. I got to know about Kagome and the rest of her family a little better. I finished dinner and got up. "Thanks for dinner, err," I said but didn't get a name from Kagome's mother.

"Just call me Kun-Loon," she said with a smile.

"Thank you for dinner, Kun-Loon," I said as I put my dishes in a metal container. Kagome took my hand and led me up to her room. I sat on the floor and she sat on her bed. "Your mother is nice. I wish my mother was here," I said to Kagome. She looked at me and asked, "What happened to your mom?" I looked up at Kagome and replied, "It's a long story. I don't think you would like to listen to it."

"It's fine. As long as my friends to come here during your story," Kagome smiled and sat on the floor with me to listen to my story.

"Well, my mom was a human and she loved my father and I. We were a perfect little family."

                                                              FLASHBACK

My mother was in the hut, cooking soup in a big cauldron over a fire. "Mother, may I help you cook the soup," I asked in my high pitched voice. She nodded with a smile and told me to go and collect vegetables from the garden. I left the hut and ran to our garden. My family garden was made by my father and he planted lots of food there for us to eat. As I ran to get the vegetables, I stopped by the side of the hut to get a basket. The basket was small for me to carry. When I reached the garden, I pulled lots of vegetables. "Michiko? Can you hurry up please so I can give your father the soup for lunch?" My mother yelled from the hut. I picked up my basket and ran inside.

"Here mother! I picked lots of the food," I said. I smiled and giggled a little bit. My mother smiled and said she will take care of the food and for me to play outside. I nodded and left the hut and went to a patch of grass and found lots of flowers. I made a crown out of them and ran to my mother. I placed it in my mother's hair and I heard her say, "Michiko, Do you know where your father is?"

"No, mother. You stay home. I will go find him," I said before I left the hut. The village I lived with, lived next to the ocean. My father was a fisherman and he would go to a cliff next to the ocean to fish. I ran over to see my dad at work. "Daddy! Do you like the present I gave to mommy," I asked him. He was pulling a large net out of the water that caught lots of fish for the village. When he was done pulling the net, he stepped over to me and kissed my head. "I love it, Michiko. You better hurry back home and help your mother," he said in return. The net full of fish broke and all of the fish were slapping against the ground from the lack of water.

I stood near the edge of the cliff and got knocked off into the ocean. The cliff was really high up from where I landed in the water. My father, a demon, jumped to save me. When my dad and I got out of the water, he looked like a monster. He had black eyes, warriors' uniform, and a warrior's weapon at his side. His height was a big as the Demon Lord. My mother ran outside to see what the ruckus was and she noticed me in my dad's arms. She ran over to see if I was still alive. My father placed me on the beach's sand. When my mother got there, my dad looked in my mother's eyes. "I don't want you to get near our daughter again, you monster," she said with tears in her eyes. My father had fire in his eyes and grew angry. Mother, she tried to protect me by using her body as a shield. Father didn't really care about my mother so he attacked her first. He dug his long claws through her back and when she fell, he took me and kept me somewhere 'safe'.

I stayed in the safe place for many years and then, up till last year, I left the safe place and never looked back.
