Sesshomaru smirked slightly, he was pushing strength and he was suitably impressed, but exhaustion was more then the way one stood or spoke, and she reeked of it.  “It would be much simpler if you simply accepted my offer of help, I do not make such often.” he said simply watching her face. Her expression had become thoughtful when he had given her his name then suddenly she seemed to understand.<br/><br/>“Yes, If my reputation has traveled so far south that you know of me, then you also know I do not make such offers of assistance lightly.” he said calmly how would she act now she knew who he was, would she bow and grovel Like Jaken?  He doubted that, to much pride, but she seemed to smart to try and deceive or attack him in anyway.<br/><br/>“Atsuki?  I can’t say I recognize the description, the name is to common however I can arrange for him to be found.” he said calmly lifting a hand, enough a gesture for Jaken to step forward quickly<br/><br/>“Is he a wolf demon as well?” Sesshomaru asked her then looked to Jaken “See to it Those under me know that I am seeking the demon Atsuki.” he said<br/><br/><br/>--------------------------------<br/><br/><br/>He was watching her, she had a feeling he was trying to determine if it was worth trusting her or not.  It seemed his need for aide overrode any desire for caution.  He released her wrist and she moved slipping of the thick layer of Brocade fabric gently laying it over him.  He quietly spoke a name and she smiled gently.<br/><br/>“Well then, Onigumo-san, be at ease, I will care for you… but I am no fool I can feel your power even now, I save you, only on the condition you do not hurt me or mine.” she said calmly watching his eyes drift closed, obviously the straine of just being awake those few short moment had taken its toll on him.<br/><br/>Shortly after he had slipped back into unconsciousness two well armored women and a maid approached the bird that had lead them flying off, it’s task complete,  Kohana stood and stepped back as the guards carefully lifted Naraku and began to carry him back while the maid took Kohanas hand and Made sure she followed.<br/><br/>Once back to the grand Manor The guards took Naraku to a room to be tended by a nurse while Kohana was taken back to her room, her robes changed for clean one and her hair combed freeing it of dirt and leaves from the forest floor.<br/><br/>“I will take my morning meal in Our guests room, for the moment I am the only one he has met, I believe it will be best if he sees me there when he wakes so he is assured he is still safe.” she said calmly once she was freshened up.
