"Who are you?"
(Y/n) could only tilt her head to the side slightly in confusion.
"What do you mean mister Naraku~"
He sneered slightly at the name before grumbling to himself.
"Kikyo doesn't seem to like you.. you're bound to the Higurashi family.. as well as have a pretty interesting friendship with the great dog demon's first son. So Kumo No Joo, who are you?"
Her heart immediately dropped at the question. She turned away with a forced playful grin that was seamless and could fool any who saw it. Including the man now behind her which is what she needed it to do.
"That's quite the question for a woman you practically kidnapped and locked up with no food or water for 4 days in a cell of darkness.. isn't it? Or is that just me?" she asked,
"I remember you now.. Well, He remember's you. So?"
"The man Onigumo knew me before yes. But not by a lot. Just a friend honestly till I sent him on his way with no memories of myself. The fact he remembers now is quite something.. isn't it?"
~
"Onigumo! Please tell me you're joking.." (Y/n) asked, her heart temperarily frozen.
Sesshomaru looked away from her quietly.
"...I'm afraid not.. You had your suspicion's of him turning into him, soon. It seems you were correct"
She hummed, now shaking in her skin. She was wrapped in his mokomoko at the moment. Chatting before sleep could take over.
"If he remembers... but he doesn't it'll shatter me like it always does. You want me to charm that man to buy you guys time..?"
"Only if you're willing of course"
~
She wasn't. But decided on the spot when she caught him stalking her.
"He used to be in love with you it seems. Yet you erased his memories and sent him on his way to where he reached misfortune than fell to Kikyo's arms. Quite cruel.. don't you think? Good for you.." he suddenly smirked, as she merely rolled her eyes.
"My heart belongs to someone else. Besides, those who fall in love with demons such as myself always end up in misfortune. So I sent him off." she explained briefly, raising her arm and flicking her wrist causing a spin of thin webs to appear.
"I'm running out of silk.. A meal wouldn't be too bad you know. It's not like I'm going anywhere right now." (Y/n) ended up sighing, staring at her black tattoos that surfaced right as his hand reached for her neck again like last time.
She didn't struggled, she only continued to stare at her wrist where the tattoos seemed to bleed through.
"You're quite confident for a victim."
"Who said I was the victim...?"
He sneered
"It doesn't seem to be me."
"It's not a sin to need food to produce energy. More food in my system, more protein to work with. Simple. Or I really will leave here without a tell sign because we both know you weren't capable of holding me captive for long from the beginning. Now either let go of me or end my life." she gritted, a powerful aura exploding from her out of nowhere.
One that made him do as commanded and step back in slight shock. She smacked away the hand still in front of her before glaring at him.
"Kneel."
He did.
Another sneer appearing before it quickly turned to a cruel smile as he raised both of his hands up in surrender to the spider queen.
"Stay there why don't you. Away from everyone. Get up only when you realize how powerless you are compared to me."
That was not a brag either. It was a true threat. One she hoped would snap him to it.
"You're born from an angel father and a demon mother.. correct? Your mother being the spider queen before you and your father pure hearted before being tainted by her touch alone. So much darkness.. runs in the family I asume?"
Well there was no way he'd be able to just find that kind of information now a days.. He remembered more than he let on.
"Stop screwing with me, Naraku. Why is it you really called me up here?"
"Well... My Queen.. "
"Naraku... I'm warning you..."
"As if you'd hurt me.. "
~
"As if you'd hurt me.." he smirked, a dangerous look to his eye.
(Y/n) only tried again. His arms were wrapped tightly around her waist from behind. She'd tried to make him let go.. but.. it was pointless.
She humghed, falling back against his chest and puffing out her cheeks like a child as she glared up at him as he looked down to meet her eyes with amusement.
"Sometimes I wonder if I should hate you or not.. Sesshomaru definately does..." she frowned, as he only chuckled.
"He hates everyone.. what are you talking about?"
"I have no clue.. But you really should let go of me. My father might not have minded you when he was alive, but mom and Sesshomaru's father would probably end you themselves gladly" she ended up giggling, now just letting herself lay back and relax.
His grip was like a vice but she didn't mind it at all. It was his way of taking more than he was allowed. The birds chirped in their sudden silence. It was nothing awkward or tense of course. A wisp of sadness or disapointment in the air maybe. Once she felt his chin on her head she could only smile gently as she looked up.
He had fallen asleep.
She let him rest, knowing the night before had been a rough one being a half demon and all.
She simply stayed where she was until about an hour or so passed and he awoke again.
"Naraku...?" she whispered, in case she was wrong about him being up.
He hummed in responce.
"I meant what I said earlier.. she'll be here so-"
"(Y/n)! Get that half blood out of here. Your mother is headed in now." A younger Sesshomaru had suddenly appeared before them.
Despite his glare to said half demon his eyes softened seeing you look so peaceful and relaxed in his arms as they layed against a rather thick tree.
"I thought so.. One of the Jiro's popped down to tell me. Thank you for confirming. You hear that mister!" She said, trying to pry off his arms again. "You gotta let go at some point."
"No."
"Please.."
"Nope.. not even if you beg."
"Sesshomaruuuuuuu? Help! Please!" (Y/n) whined, as he simple shook his head at the two.
"I'm not getting in trouble again because of you two. You'll have to deal with this yourself, sis"
She went slack once more as Naraku laughed again.
"You give up so easily. Did you know that, My Queen...?"
She looked up as she did before, grumbling to herself when she saw the grin on his face.
"Only against you because you're stubborn as all hell and I'm too lazy to even bother.."
"Exactly.. why don't I drag you to the waterfall and we can spend tonight together for once after so long? It's not like your parents care if you're out as long as they know you aren't hanging about with me."
She turned her head to her brother who still stood there grumbling to himself before waving them both off.
"Yes yes, fine. I'll cover for you both. But you're taking the blame and saying you somehow forced me or something." he sighed,
They both smirked at him.
"Well... if you didn't I would have told your father about that time whe-"
"Don't even."
The spider chuckled.
"Thank you.."
~
"Oh so long ago that was.." she mumbled under her breath knowing where this was heading.
"What was that?" Naraku asked, staring up at her in confusion now.
She had just stood there staring at him like a statue before practically whispering the words.
She only hummed,
"Nothing of importance. What is it you want, Naraku. You know who I am and information that should be impossible to know about me?"
"Not exactly.. I meant what I said before. Who are you... better yet.... who are you to me......?"
She nodded, already suspecting it from before. She sat down on her knees before him and layed her tattoo covered hands on her lap with her palms facing up.
"First. What triggered the first thoughts of your past?" she couldn't help but ask, her curiousity getting to her head.
"That would be when you first purified my miasma. It was familiar energy, that's all."
"I see.. well let us get into it then, shall we?"
~
"Can he never not be curious..?"
