Hi Everyone, Blue Rose here, but call me Rose. I've been writing several different stories at once, silly me, anyway I'm finally posting my first story and I can't wait to get reviews for it, I hope you all like it.
Don’t own InuYasha or any characters in there all rights go to Rumiko Takahashi, though I wish I did ha-ha. Hope you enjoy.

It was the middle of winter. Kagome was sitting against a tree looking at the sky, taking big breaths and seeing her warm breath against the cold air as a tear streams down her cheek. “Stupid InuYasha, he’s such an idiot” she shivers from the cold as she thought to herself ‘I should get back to the others it’s getting too cold to stay outside, god I should of brought my blanket with me, but I guess I was in such a hurry to get away from him and Kikyo that I didn’t really think ahead, and I really should wear more layers of my kimono’, she sighed as she wiped her tears away, she decided to get up when she heard something in the bushes. Startled she let out a gasp and readied herself in a self-defence position. Out came a little girl aged around 12, with her raven hair, wrapped up in many layers of her kimono .
“Huh” the little girl looks up at Kagome and smiles, runs over and hugs Kagome’s leg “Kagome!”
“Rin! How are you?” She said as she hugged her back, still slightly shocked.
“Rin’s great Kagome, Lord Sesshomaru look Kagome is out here as well” she looks up at Kagome and could see the tear marks on her face “Kagome are you okay? Have you been crying? You have tear marks and your eyes are slightly red”
“oh you can see all that…”, ‘hah…Rin has always been so observant’ wipes another tear away then she sees Sesshomaru come out from the bushes “…..Hello Lord Sesshomaru”
“Hn……, why are you out here? I don’t smell that half demon” Sesshomaru looked at her with his ice mask as normal.
With a slightly surprised look upon her face she thought ‘Wow that’s the most I’ve ever heard him talk without adding threats or nasty comments’ it took her a while to answer as she thought if it was best to tell him the truth or not ‘he can probably tell if I’m lying’ “Oh…well I came out here by myself, I had a bit of a fight with InuYasha” she said the truth ‘you can’t read Sesshomaru no matter how hard you try with that ice mask of his as InuYasha calls it’.
“Hn” Sesshomaru said as his reply with his emotionless face ‘hmm... it seems that my dim witted half-brother, has again upset someone of his pack, I wonder if it has anything to do with that clay pot that continues to walk around’ he thought to himself as he looked up to the sky “Come Rin, it is going to snow soon, we have to leave” he said as he started to walk away in the opposite direction he appeared from.
“Ok, just one more minute Lord Sesshomaru” she said as she felt Kagome flop onto the ground next to her “Kagome!”
Kagome was breathing heavily with her face slightly flushed with red while she looked on at Sesshomaru calm poker face as she starts to feel light headed ‘huh I don’t feel good’. Suddenly it seemed as the ground came up to her, she didn’t even realise that she had indeed fell to the ground, soon completely unconscious on the cold hard ground beside Rin.
“Kagome! Are you okay?” she asked very worriedly as she saw what she thought was like a mother to her lying on the ground not moving “Lord Sesshomaru, Kagome has…..” she couldn’t finish her sentence as she felt like she was going to burst into tears as she looked up at her Lord.
He heard her impact to the ground as Rin shouted the Miko’s name; he turned around to see her motionlessly on the ground breathing heavily as Rin was crouched by her side “Rin, calm yourself” he said with his usual poker face, but his golden eyes showed slight worry but it was not enough for someone to noitce, even though she was just the human wench that travelled with his half-brother.
Rin looked up worried at her Lord “Lord Sesshomaru, what should we do?” She said as she was trying to calm herself down.
He didn’t even have to think for a second as he decided “Rin go get Ah-Un”
“Uh… Yes my Lord” Rin rushed off into the bushes they came from to get Ah-Un. She came back in a record speed to see her Lord picking Kagome up as she came close with Ah-Un her Lord put Kagome onto the dragon steed and they walked off into the darkness of the forest.
~oOo~
Kagome being fast asleep and nice and warm, snuggled into what she thought was her sleeping bag that she carries around with her while travelling with her group which she and the whole group do to past the time. She thought wrong ‘since when did my sleeping bag become fury, wait…. Wasn’t I outside Kaede’s village when I accidently met up with Rin and…’ she gasped as she shot up from her sleeping position “Sesshomaru” she suddenly said as she startled the little girl that was next to her.
“Kagome!” she hugged the still slightly asleep woman who was in her very late teens. “How do you feel? You were asleep for 2 days” Rin said as she looked up at Kagome with a worried, yet calmer expression upon her face, as she could see her eyes finally going into focus.
Surprised by the little girl she got over her tired state fully as she realised where she was and her surroundings, she was in a cave with a fire lit around the middle she was near the side wall of the cave as she looked around and saw Ah-Un looking at her from its position against the back wall, she could sense some sort of barrier around the whole cave “Rin” she took a little while to continue as it all sunk in “2 days?”
Rin looked up at a shocked looking Kagome “Yep, you collapsed 2 days ago, but don’t worry, Rin took care of you” she said while beaming her toothy smile
Kagome smiles as she saw how proud Rin seemed from taking care of her “hmm, Yep seems you did and thank you Rin, I feel much better” replying with a smile of her own.
The two girls chatted like that, while eating some berries for quite a while until Sesshomaru and Jaken walked through the barrier, entering the cave and came to a stop as they saw that the young miko had woken up, but the Taiyoukai saw how she looked weak and figured she has not long awoken.
Rin noticed her Lord’s return “My Lord, Kagome woke up!” she shouted quite energetically.
Kagome looked up at him and was actually slightly glad to see him; she smiled softly “Hello Lord Sesshomaru… Thank you for taking me in while I was sick”
“Hn… though you are not out of sickness yet, you cannot hide the fact that you still are not well”
She looked slightly surprised ‘it seems he can read me like an open book’, “I guess there is no hiding the truth from you then…. Um Lord Sesshomaru may I ask a question?”
“Hn” he replied with his usual calm poker face as he looked at the miko, slightly interested to see what she would ask.
She took a deep breath as she thought out how she was going to say it “If 2 days have pasted then how is it that my group have not found me yet? Does it have something to do with the barrier around this cave?” she asked quite straight forwardly, her blue as sapphires eyes never leaving his deep golden ones.
His eyes showed that slight surprise in them as his face remained the same poker face for her straight forwardness. Then suddenly.
“Of course you insolent wench! My Lord Sesshomaru was nice enough to give a petty human like you the peace of not having that mongrel of a hanyou and the rest of your pathetic group disturb you while during sickness”
“Jaken”, he said in a monstrously serious, yet calm voice.
The little toad demon froze where he stood, as his eyes grew wide instantly, slowly looking up to his Lord “Y..Yes m..my Lord?” he said quite shakily out of fright of what his Lord may do to him.
Sesshomaru kicked Jaken out of the cave and away from it for a good clear kilometre he turned back around and answered as if nothing ever happened; his face remained the same poker face. “Hn, this Sesshomaru put the barrier up to keep your group from finding you, while you rest, I am quite positive you would of not liked to have been woken up by the idiot hanyou and his big mouth while you were trying to rest and get over your sickness”
Kagome almost looked dumbfounded, ‘I have never heard him talk so much in one go or saw anyone fly that far away from a single kick’ but soon smiled widely and nodded her head gently “Yes actually, you did the absolutely right thing there, Lord Sesshomaru, thank you”
Rin watched Jaken fly away “wow Lord Sesshomaru, that’s even further than last time” she said as she jumped with excited and then giggled and skipped to Kagome who was also giggling from her statement and sat down beside her as she began to explain to Kagome that this happens to Jaken a lot.
Sesshomaru sat down against one of the walls in the cave, as he watched outside as the snow started to fall. ‘This Sesshomaru has never seen any human with such a relaxed face to see or speak to this Sesshomaru, besides Rin…. Interesting’
