Fragments of Time
By Mishi

Chapter 1
Tomorrow�s Beginning

Sonchou-sama = The village head.

Waka-sama = The son of the village
head, or the heir.

Chichi= the name that you would us when taking about your
father.

Ji-chan=used when you are taking about your grandfather.

Ku, ku, ku�= This is the typical
bad guy laugh in manga. You will also see gu, gu, gu.
They are both about the same.

Note: **Spoiler**
I make mention to Naraku discarding his youkai bits that are of no use. Well,
in the series Kagura does see this once. It is the one time during which Naraku
is vulnerable, like when Inuyasha loses his youki on the night of the new moon.
Well when this happened in that ep, Kagura goes and offers a jewel shard to
Sesshoumaru in hopes that he will kill Naraku for her. Of course, Sess tells
her that it is her problem and that she needs to deal with it on her own.

Now on to the story�

�� Miroku and
Sango sat quietly as Shido poured the tea in to cups before them. The sun
hadn�t been up long, but the rest of the household were already out in the rice
field or tending to the tiny garden outside.�

�� Miroku took
a sip of the tea that had been offered to him before trying to speak. Nodding
he said, �Arigatou, Shido-san.�

�� Hai,
Arigatou,� Sango fallowed up.

�� You said that
you wanted to talk about Nishi?� Shido asked, before blowing at his tea to cool
it down.

�� Nishi
tells us that you are waiting for a marriage proposal from Shippo. Do you think
that is best for her?� Miroku questioned.

�� She seems
to be convinced that it is. She has already announced that she won�t marry
Waka-sama.�

�� Miroku
reflected on this before continuing, �I�m sure that had to cause quite a stir
for everyone. I wonder if you might not be going too easy on her. What she is
asking is very selfish, considering what it would mean for her family. I�m sure
that family honor, as well as your status has been carefully considered in this
matter?�

�� It�s true
that the family would be hurt a great deal if this marriage doesn�t take place.
For all we know Sonchou-sama could make us leave the village,� Shido shook his
head and continued, �I don�t know what this will do to us, or to Nishi.�

�� Miroku took
another sip of the tea, and said, �Shido-san, may I suggest that you keep the
engagement open? I don�t think that Shippo is ready for marriage, and I don�t
wish to fight anyone over this. Sonchou-sama has been good to us all.� And I know that I speak for Shippo, and the
rest of our group, when I say that we don�t wish to be driven from the
village.� Miroku sat his tea down and looked Shido in the eye. �Nishi�s
behavior not only threatens your family, it�s a threat to us as well. I don�t
think that you can handle this sort of disgrace, and we aren�t willing to give
up our home. Nishi might not agree, but I think that it would be best for Nishi
to marry Waka-sama.�

�� Will the
kitsune stay away from her?� Shido asked suspiciously.

�� I don�t
think that Shippo will be the problem,� Miroku replied. �I get the impression
that Nishi is the one doing most of the pursuing.�

Shido thought about this for a
moment, and admitted, �Nishi has always been fascinated by kitsune. Chichi used
to tell stories about them. He even swore that he had kitsune blood in him. I
wasn�t much help, I always told stories too. She just seemed to get such a kick
out of the stories that I couldn�t help telling them to her.�
��
�� Could you
tell use one of the legends?� Sango spoke up. �It might help us figure out why
Nishi is so taken with kitsune.�

�� There are a few that Chichi told. He said that his mother was a
kitsune, who brought wealth to Ji-chan with her power of illusion. He had come
across her while sleeping and took her for his bride. She would trick merchants
out of fine clothes for her husband. They would travel from village to village
under the disguise of nobles, and stay with the wealthiest of families.
Sometime after Chichi was born, she disappeared. Ji-chan was left with nothing
but his fancy clothes and an infant son. What wealth he had was used to bring
us here.� Shido sipped his tea before going on, �Ji-chan kept Chichi�s origins
secret, telling everyone that his wife died from illness during the winter.
Only Chichi was told the truth about his mother, the truth of which was passed
down to me.�

�� Perhaps
Nishi thinks that Shippo could do the same thing for her. Shido-san, you said
that they traveled from place to place, and Nishi does seem to want out of this
village.�

�� I guess it
could be possible,� Shido replied, rubbing his chin. �She has never taken well to
common housework, or to tending the fields.��

�� Marrying
Waka-sama would get her out of the work, but would keep her here and in modest
means.� Sango added.

�� Perhaps I
have spoiled her and her bother, Gigen. They are both very willful, and have
never gotten along. If nothing else, I am sure that she would want to be away
from her bother.�

�� We are
grateful that you agree with us on this matter,� Miroku commented, finishing
his tea. �We will return to the group and tell them what we have decided. Nishi
will be back in your home by sunset tonight.�

�� With
nothing more to say, Miroku and Sango bowed and stood, leaving Shido alone with
his thoughts.

********

The sun was shining brightly
overhead as a warm breeze blew threw Sesshoumaru�s hair. The countryside was
laid out before him like a sun-drenched carpet of green. There were no trees to
block the view for miles ahead of him, and the mountains were still hours way. This open space was a blessing compared to the
cage that he had just escaped from.�

�� Rin and
Jaken were also peaceful. Jaken seemed to be content to follow behind
Sesshoumaru with Aun�s reins in this hand. Rin was sitting sidesaddle atop of
the dragon, which felt odd to her, but it was the only way she could sit with
the new kimono.

�� Lastly,
there was Runa; bringing up the rear. This was a position that she wasn�t
enjoying. �To think, I�m following a
human. I should be beside Sesshoumaru, not stuck behind the brat and the
midget.�

�� After a few
moments of trying to split Rin�s head with her mind, Runa decided to pick up
her pace and take what she thought to be her proper place, which was on
Sesshoumaru�s arm.

�� Sesshoumaru
didn�t bother to turn to look at Runa, but simply kept walking. He was content
to ignore her and leave it be. However, Rin had more than noticed how Runa had
draped herself over his arm. Sitting up a little straighter in the saddle, Rin
kept her eyes glued to Sesshoumaru. She was curious to see what his reaction
would be to Runa�s affections.

�� Ah, come
on Sesshoumaru, you know that you like having me here. What will it take to get
you to lighten up?� Runa asked rubbing her body against his arm.

�� The only thing that you make me feel is disgusted,� Sesshoumaru
stated in a flat voice.

�� You don�t
fool me, I know that you want this body. I can feel
your body reacting to mine. You always did hold back until you couldn�t stand
it anymore; always so proper, and afraid to get your hands dirty. Well, I know
what you like, and I�m willing to give it to you.�

She forced him to stop, and pulling
at his arm until his ear was close to her mouth, she pushed her body into his.
Having him right were she wanted him, she purred warm
words into his ear, �How long has it been since you�ve bedded a female? Days? Months? Or has it been years?
Everyone has needs Sesshoumaru, let me help you with yours.��

Sesshoumaru�s eyes narrowed as he
looked at her. He was suddenly torn between both lust and repulsion. He had
been attracted to Runa in the past, and knew that sex with her could be very
enjoyable, but he also hated himself for giving into such loathsome acts.
Mercifully, Rin, appeared at his side tugging at his
empty sleeve. Recovering from his inner conflict, Sesshoumaru dismissed Runa
and gave Rin is full attention.��

�Runa, I believe that you are in
Rin�s place�!� He said without turning his gaze away from Rin; a slight smile
showing on his lips at Runa�s expense.�

Runa let go of him and stepped
back, allowing Rin to Sesshoumaru�s hand.

�Is that better Sesshoumaru-sama?�
Rin asked with a smile, realizing that she had won another small victory as she
noticed how relaxed Sesshoumaru�s hand was in hers.

�Yes,� was all he said as he
returned to the road ahead.

�Fine, if she isn�t going to ride
the dragon, then I�ll take her place on it.� Runa barked, not even trying to
cover for her wounded pride.

�The dragon is Rin�s. You will ask
her before you touch the beast.� Sesshoumaru ordered, fueling Runa�s rage.

Rin turned to see Runa, who was
staring at her as though daggers could project from her eye sockets. Ignoring
the look the best that she could, she gave her attention to the dragon in
question. �Aun?� Rin questioned the dragon for its
opinion on the matter.

The dragons snorted in reply, and
bobbed their heads up and down.

Rin looked up at Sesshoumaru, and
translated, �They are ok with it, but she better be nice to them.�

�When Rin is ready for the dragon,
you will give her no argument�� Sesshoumaru instructed without looking back.

To this Rin flashed a friendly
smile at Runa, who returned the smile with one of the evilest smirks that she
could muster.

*********

�� Kagura
walked slowly through the dimly lit tunnel; she wished that they still had the castle
to hide in, instead of this maze of winding tunnels and caves, but who was she
to argue with Naraku? As long as he still had her heart, she couldn�t afford to
argue over their choice in refuge.�

�� Hey Kanna,
what does he want with me anyway?� She asked the small, white haired youkai in
front of her.

�� He has a
task for you,� she stated plainly.

It had only taken moments for them
to reach a large cavern, which was covered with bits and pieces of youkai and
some foul smelling black ooze.� Kagura had
seen this once before, but she still found it disturbing. These times when
Naraku would split apart and discard useless parts of himself
were frightening to her. It always made her wonder if
he might decide to absorb her back into himself and be done with her.

�Ku ku ku�do I repulse you,
Kagura?�

What could she say; he would know
that she was lying if she said no. �This isn�t the prettiest thing I�ve ever
seen,� she settled for.

�Don�t worry Kagura, I�ll be quick.
I want you to watch Kouga. It is time to take from him what should have been
taken long ago.�

�You don�t want me to fight�just
watch?�

�I have plans for him, so keep him
close to you. He is still looking for a castle, and your sent will keep him
looking.�

As Naraku finished his order, a bit
of the black blob touched Kagura�s feet; she was startled and tried to back
way.

�The last time I was like this you
tried to run away, didn�t you, Kagura? Remember how I punished you?� I might be in pieces at the moment, but I can
still see you. Remember you are trying to regain my trust.�

A vision of offering a jewel shard
to Sesshoumaru flashed through her mind. �At
least he doesn�t know that I was trying to get Sesshoumaru to destroy him. I
would be dead if he knew that,� she thought as she struggled to keep her
composure.

The black ooze was drawing back
from her foot as he told her to go. What sweet relief that was. There was
nothing that could�ve pleased her more at that moment than to be away from him.

�� When Kagura
was gone from sight, Naraku turned his attention to Kanna. �Show me where she
is,� he ordered her.

�� Magically,
Kikyou appeared in the tiny mirror that rested in Kanna�s hands. Kikyou was
tending to herbs in a garden with children at her side.

�� How sweet,
enjoying your new life Kikyou?� Naraku said with an edge of contempt in his
words.

Something stirred within him as he
watched her in the mirror. It was something he had been struggling against for
days now-the need to see her. �Wanting
out again aren�t you Onigumo? You can�t seem to forget that woman. Well, you
will have your chance with her soon enough. And I will be rid of you both. Ku,
ku, ku��
