gothic _fuzzies--Hello! I'm gothic_fuzzies. This is my first multi-chapter Kagome/Sesshomaru fiction.

I'm also punkish furball and gothic fuzzies so no, I didn't plagiarize.

Words to Ponder:

I'm also gothic fuzzball on here, but I forgot my password and the email address I used don't exist anymore...so there is no way to get my password. (sigh) So, I started this account. I'm also known as gothic fuzzies on mediaminer.org and punkish furball on fanfiction.net.

I will be using one main OC that I tend to use a lot: Mimirou. Mimirou is mostly portrayed as a fire cat half demon who's parents who've died and begins to travel with Kagome thinking of her as a master/sister figure and loves her very much.

Prologue

Kagome sighed overlooking one of the vast gardens in the estate in of the western lands. When she first seen this elaborate fortress, she was amazed. She had no clue that Lord Sesshomaru had any place to call home; he always struck her as the wandering type. It was originally built for the former Inu no Taisho's, Lord Touga, first mate and himself; that is what Sesshomaru told her and he said no more on the subject. Ironically, it was near the time the Inu no Taisho had met his second mate and left the first.

Sesshomaru...he came to her one day out of the blue and asked to court her. Kagome had been unable to react at first, but he was so kind and so sincere that she couldn't help but fall for him. He said such sweet words to her and at night he would hold her close to him. They had mated weeks later; InuYasha was not happy but did not protest...much.

'But he changed,' Kagome thought. He did. He rarely saw her anymore and when he did, he never seemed to look her in her eye. They had only been intimate the night her marked her some months ago. Sesshomaru isolated her here; she couldn't go out on her own anymore. Kagome had no friends within the estate. Servants and maids were only civil with her because they were ordered to be, but sometimes when she passed them, they would whisper and point at her. And sweet little Rin, she was so innocent! She made for good company but did not understand her feelings.

However, there was one servant who was her solace. She did not give her a name; she said that it was taken with her along with her freedom a long time ago. She was a half demon, a fire cat like Kirara. She looked as young as Rin was--about seven or eight in human years. Her skin was tanned brown like copper and like all demons her fingers were slender and tipped with sharp claws. Her eyes were two different colors--the right was golden like Sesshomaru's only much warmer and the left was blood red. Her onyx colored hair fell passed her shoulders and her bangs were ivory. Two black ivory tipped ears that were cat like in nature were on her head and two black ivory tipped tails extended from her spine. She usually had a plain kimono that was solid green or sometimes blue.

When Kagome first met her; she noticed that she had been talking about Sesshomaru and Touga without calling them "Lord" like all the other servants. It caught Kagome's attention.

"Why don't you call the Inu no Taisho and Sesshomaru 'Lord'?" Kagome asked her.

"I have no loyalty towards these lands or those who rule them," she answered, "nor am I acknowledging anyone as my superior who is not."

"You shouldn't say that," Kagome said; it might have been true but Sesshomaru would punish her if he knew what she said.

"I speak only the truth," she said and looked at Kagome. A sad, almost sympathetic look was in her eyes. Kagome was confused; why did she look at her that way?

"Any loyalty I have to this patch of soil belongs solely to you, Mistress Kagome."

Kagome began to laugh nervously and scratched her neck in a sheepish manner, "You don't have to say that. I really don't do anything here at all. You don't even know me."

"I know that," she said, "trapped in here like a caged bird like myself."

Kagome gasped slightly realizing that she was right. Sesshomaru did trap her here...in some ways.

"You're wrong," Kagome said despite what she felt, "Sesshomaru loves me and I love him."

"That mark," she said and let her fingers reach up and graze the symbol of her and Sesshomaru's union. She could reach it seeing as Kagome bent down to her level, "It was on the same place on her too."

Before Kagome could ask what he servant girl meant, she turned around and left.

Kagome rubbed her temples to keep those thoughts away. She still didn't know what or who the servant girl was talking about. Kagome stood up and went back to the chambers she shared with Sesshomaru. Once there she would a small book on her bed. She took the book in her lap and sat down. She opened it; Sesshomaru's name was on the inside cover.

'How did this get in here?!' she thought. A slip of paper fell from the book; it was a note.

"I didn't intend to hurt you. I just wanted you to see what I see."

There was no name on the note. Kagome was confused.

'I guess it wouldn't hurt to read a bit,' Kagome thought and opened the book. Looking at the first page, she could tell that this was some sort of journal. A page was folded down near the middle of the journal and Kagome flipped to it and began to read.

-O0o0O-

It was while I was patrolling the lands that I found her. A human injured and alone. My rage at humans began to rise and I felt the need to relieve this human of her head. But looking at her large doe brown eyes that shined with tears and utter terror at my presence; I spared her. I brought her to a healer I knew. She was healed and sent back to her village.

-O0o0O-

Kagome paused in her reading. She could tell be the script and the short concise paragraph that the writer had to be Sesshomaru.

'Sesshomaru met another human woman?' she thought, 'What does this mean?' Kagome noticed other pages folded down and skipped over to the next one. She knew that she shouldn't invade Sesshomaru's privacy, but someone left this here to show her something that she didn't find yet. Kagome let curiosity get the better of her and continued to read.

-O0o0O-

I cannot believe it. Only weeks after meeting this woman, Misumi is her name, I am deeply in love with her. I act so uncharacteristically and not my cold, indifferent self. It's as though I'm a pup again. I don't care if I follow the steps of my father; I love this woman. She will be mine.

-O0o0O-

Kagome felt a sob in her throat. This entry was short but it cut like a knife in through her heart. She turned the page again and began to read.

-O0o0O-

She died; my Misumi is gone. She died during childbirth along with my child. How fleeting the lives of humans are. I will never love again. It was my father's folly. It was taken from him the same way it was taken from me.

-O0o0O-

Kagome couldn't stop the tears from falling onto the page. She could not help but feel for beloved who was so emotionally wounded. The words were few, but she could tell. Sesshomaru's writing had gotten a tad sloppy and there were small ink blots littering the page.

"How sad," she said aloud. She turned the page and continued to read.

-O0o0O-

It has been a while since I wrote, but I found her once again. My Misumi or more accurately this Kagome girl. She looked almost identical except her eyes. Misumi's were a warm brown like warm, fertile soil and Kagome's were deep crystal blue. There manner is also very different. Misumi was quiet and respectful like a perfect hime or a gentle songbird in a golden cage. This girl was loud, obnoxious and very annoying. But with a little molding and bit of my influence, I can create a Misumi that would be even more perfect than my memories of her.

I know I said I would never love another, but I don't intend to. My love will forever be for my Misumi...this girl will only be her new vessel.

-O0o0O-

Kagome threw the book away as though it burned her. She buried her face in her hands and sobbed loudly. It was all true; she could see that now in the scant minutes that she sat there reading. She had changed. She would have never accepted being in here without going out on her own or staying here period. Sesshomaru changed her to suit his interests. She now understood what her only friend and companion in this place said and why the other servants all whispered and pointed. She wasn't Kagome; in Sesshomaru's eyes, she was Misumi.

"I'm such a fool," Kagome said. Her sobs carried into her corridors and throughout the whole fortress.

-O0o0O-

Sesshomaru lifted his head from his scrolls and paperwork on the desk in his study. He stood up abruptly.

"Lord Sesshomaru," a young servant girl about Rin's age said, "is there a problem?"

"My mate distresses," he said simply. Normally, he wouldn't answer to a servant especially a child but she was here when the fortress was completed before his mother left his father. She was one the best he had here.

"I will take care of her," she said and bowed in the demons direction, "She will no longer be distraught."

Sesshomaru nodded once and sat back down; he knew that the fire cat will take care of Kagome.

Once the half demon was in the hall, she smiled bitterly to herself.

'I have no loyalty towards that wretched dog,' she thought, 'All my loyalty belongs solely to Lady Kagome. She will no longer be a replacement for that wench, Misumi. I will free her from this place. And Sesshomaru will never harm her again.'

The servant girl walked through the hall into the chamber Kagome was in. As soon as she opened the door, Kagome threw herself at her and cried into her neck.

"Thank you," Kagome said through her tears, "Thank you for showing me the truth."

"I knew you had to know," the servant girl said, "You were never met to be in this place. I'll get you out."

"How?" Kagome asked desperately, "He will find me. There is no way he'll left me go."

"I have it all worked out," the girl said softly, "Don't worry. Give me a few days. Humor him until then."

Kagome looked at Mimirou with tear stained cheeks, "What about the journal?"

"I'll take care of everything," the girl said. She released Kagome and pulled out a blue jewel on a bracelet, "This will mask you sadness and other feelings from Sesshomaru. It won't last long, but it will do the job." The servant girl picked the book off of the floor and turned to leave.

"Wait," Kagome said and her cat like ears twitched at the sound, "Can you at least tell me your name."

"Later," she said and left. Kagome sighed and went back to the bed without even bothering to change. She slipped on the bracelet and felt energy seep into her veins. Apparently, the servant girl thought about this for a long time. She didn't know how long she laid there until Sesshomaru came into the room. She had to fight back tears when he lay beside her and hugged him from behind. Being held so tightly to his chest so close so that she could her the beat of his heart did not bring her comfort as it used to. He kissed her temple and ran his claws through her hair.

Kagome just thought while he held her. Did even Sesshomaru even care for her at all? Did all he think of was Misumi? Even as he touched and caressed her so tender and lovingly? Where all those words of love fore her?

"Good night, beloved," he whispered into her ear. Kagome just snuggled closer and fell asleep.

-O0o0O-

The servant girl placed the journal back on her private shelf in Sesshomaru's study. Being one of the most trusted individuals in the fortress despite her age was very beneficial. She finally managed to get the cresses out from the folded pages. She pulled out a few of the oldest looking books and scrolls. She placed them on the floor with some parchment and a brush and ink. Settling herself on the floor, she opened a book to a marked page.

"The removal of the mark," she read aloud, "an excruciating process that will remove the mark without death of the mate." She took notes on the parchment, mostly directions and ingredients. She worked into the night and until morning.

'You will be free of this dog,' the girl thought to herself, 'I will protect you from him at all costs.'
