Chapter 125 - The Offer *A Whip and a Witch* (Stella's Soundtrack Challenge)

"Why would this Sesshoumaru listen to a word from you, treasonous witch?" he snarled. He felt Shippo shiver on his shoulder, only confirming what he already felt. There was an absurd amount of evil flowing from the woman before him. "For conspiring against the West and this Sesshoumaru, the penalty is death."

Migotoyami opened her mouth to speak, but before she could begin, a glowing green whip crossed the distance. She moved faster than a human woman should have been able to, and Sesshoumaru frowned minutely before lashing out again. She continued to evade him, only angering the taiyoukai further.

Clinging to the Demon Lord's fur, Shippo studied her movements closely before leaning in to Sesshoumaru's ear. "She is using magic to project her image. She is not where she appears to be."

The taiyoukai snarled and snapped his whip one last time. The image of the witch disappeared entirely, and her voice seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere all at once as she spoke. "My Lord, you have my deepest apologies for my participation in the raising of the barrier. It was foolish and greedy of me to agree to aid Tsukiko in his endeavors. I understand your wish to kill me, but you will want to listen to my offer first."

"Nothing you could offer this Sesshoumaru will save your life."

Migotoyami laughed darkly, the sound sending shivers up each human's spine, before she tried again. "Not even the life of your love?"

"You dare threaten my mate-to-be?" he growled dangerously, one hand slipping behind him to touch the miko's side.

"I have no such intentions. You misunderstand me. Do you not desire for your little human to last longer than a few decades?" Absolute silence fell in the chamber, and the witch showed herself once more; solidify from nothing out of the shadows. "I can do that for you. I can make her live as long as you shall, My Lord."

"Don't trust her," Shippo whispered.

"That would be unwise," the witch replied. "Do you wish to lose your new mother so soon, little kitsune?"

"Of course not," he yelled. "But who knows what you would do to her?!"

"For my life, I offer you hers. Is that not a fair trade?"

Sesshoumaru remained silent, worrying both the kit and Kagome. He wanted nothing more than to have his angel live as long as he did. When he lost her, he would lose his mind, his will to live, and everything that made him who he was. But could he risk trusting a witch? He had already revived Kagome with the Tenseiga, and the sword with the power over death would only work once. Besides, it could do nothing to protect her from the ravages of time. If he did not find a way to extend her lifespan, the witch was right. He would lose her in decades when he wished to hold her for millennia.

When he spoke, his voice was quiet and rough, just the thought of losing her making his heart ache. "Tell me more."
