Chapter 18
Who doesn't Love a good Mystery?
"No how did you get that sword" Sesshomaru pushed trying to get the answers he wanted but she was not forthcoming. She just stood there looking at him blankly and took a confused stance by shifter her head slightly. "I will use force if necessary." he said coolly while standing at his full height, which was a lot taller than Kagome's small form and trying to use his impressive height to intimidate her but Kagome returned the look with disinterest not willing to play his game.
"I am this swords master." she said not willing to elaborate anymore on that matter. She absolutely refused to let this male think he could intimidate her just by standing all his height. 'As If!' she thought, she knew someone like him was not used to her kind of attitude in a female. 'I can talk us in circles all day mister, might as well give up now.' she thought smugly as she watched his eyes narrow in anger, frustration and irritation.
"Don't try my patience female." he said coldly as his eyes took a deathly gleam. His glare never failed to receive the correct outcome, for him at least. She could almost see her painful death within his eyes.
"Well then, maybe you need to ask the right questions." she spoke softly trying to convey her unspoken answer. She was getting tired of the cat and mouse game. 'Really, just who does he think he is?!' she thought indignantly as she rose a mocking brow.
She spoke in riddles and this infuriated him to no end. He would just rather kill her and take the sword but he was curious to how she a full blooded youkai can handle the sword without the barrier rejecting her, like it did himself. No he will keep her alive long enough to answer his questions then he will kill her for her insolence. 'The right questions?' he repeated inwardly while trying to decipher what he needed to ask to get his answers. While silently seething at her nerve "What are you?" he asked looking at her, he already knew but to have her say it was a start.
"Inu Youkai." was her one word reply as she crossed her arms over her chest and awaited the next question. Her stance was one of defiance complete and utter defiance, she refused to give him the satisfaction of bowing down to him. Her youkai would not allow it! It was against everything in her, she did not see him as a better as someone worthy of that much respect. To her he was on the fine line between enemy and ally. 'He is unpredictable.' she thought while trying to decipher her emotions. Maybe it was because her youkai came from the essence of an Alpha male one of the strongest to ever live? Then strengthened with her defiant or independent personality depending what you call it, it was the same thing. This could be it she didn't know but it was only a possibility.
"What clan are you from?" he asked genuinely curious. If he did not know any better he would say she was part of his clan, but she was not. That much is obviously the simple fact he, his brother, and his mother are all that remained of his clan. 'She could be from the mainland' he thought while she stood silent seemingly in thought.
'Now that was a hard question. Now how to answer it?' she thought while trying to find the right words to use that will not give away too much. Breathing evenly she answered "I am the last of my clan." 'It is kind of true I am the only one because I do not belong to a clan.' she thought nervously. 'Get it together girl! You can't be fumbling around like a baka in front of him it will cause him to be more suspicious.' she thought reprimanding herself for turning into a fidgeting baka in front of him.
"You Lie." he said as he narrowed his eyes at her blatant lie. "I can scent the guilt on you." he told her while he watched her squirm under his glare. He really did love the effect he had on beings; he never grew tired of it.
"Doesn't matter, you would not believe me anyway." she told him while looking at her feet. She hated the way he made her feel. She felt like a misbehaving child.
"You presume to tell this Sesshomaru what he would or would not believe?" he asked raising a brow at her while she sighed in response.
"Listen I was told I cannot tell anyone who I am and where I am from unless they figure it out first. So sorry I am not going to be answering any of your questions today." she said then turned on her foot and took off at her full youkai speed towards the camp.
Sesshomaru stood where she left him looking at the place the female had previously occupied. He lifted his nose slightly to scent the air hoping to catch her lingering scent. This time he was paying attention to it, more so then before. Her scent was familiar but he could not place it. 'Once I recognize the scent then I will know who she is.' he thought as he turned back to return to his retainer.

Arriving back at the camp all the humans were asleep. She walked to where her vassal was reclining. "Asiko go to the river and fetch some water." she ordered.
Upon hearing her order she jumped up and went to do as she was bid.
When Asiko arrived back at the camp with water Kagome began to cook breakfast. Soon the scent of cooking food filled the air and the campers woke one by one.
