====Author's Note=====

Underlined-Kagome's Miko talking

Regular-Kagome talking.

Got it? Get it? Good! I will put this up on the next chapters as well

The cold feel of grass brushed against her giant paws, she was tired, but one thing kept her going. Love. A forbidden love at that. She immediately smelt him, and if it where instinct, her hackles rose.

"Do not fear, my love." Came his beautiful, timeless melody of his voice. "Tonight we will be bounded by a mark that will last a lifetime."

She shivered; his giant dog form was beyond handsome, while her giant neko form was ok. "Maki, I am here now." He whispered in her ear. "But Karuno…We… we can't do this! What if our clan's find out!" She complained. He sat there. She was right, if their clans found out about a neko and a dog demon meeting in secret, they would both be charged with treason, and sentenced to death, even if they are both in a high position. "Please Maki…I love you!" He said. She looked at him; tears came out of her eyes, "Really?" She asked. He nodded. That night, the two lovers shared how they felt, a mate's mark sealed the deal, but little did they know what was going to happen a little while after that one night.

It had been two months since the night they spent together, and Maki felt horrible as hell. "Maki-Sama!" A servant shouted. "You need to wake up; your father wants to speak with you!" Maki looked at her servant, who was now shaking. She purred at the satisfaction of knowing that she put the servant in her place with just one look. "You may leave." She said, causing the servant to shake even more at her voice. "B-b-but I-I-I m-m-must d-d-dress y-y-you." She stuttered. I gave her a look and she passed out. She made an mrrow of laughter and cleaned herself in the hot spring. After she was dressed, she walked down into her father's study. He was looking at his papers when he heard a 'ahem'. He looked up to see his daughter. "Ah! Maki! Please sit!" He said. Maki picked up her long cat tail and placed it on her lap before sitting, it was a sign of honor. She looked at her father, expectant of him to talk, but he just smiled. "Sooo…." she started. "So when where you going to tell me!" He said as his voice echoed throughout the castle.

"Tell you what?"

"About the lucky guy!"

"What lucky guy?"

"The guy who's made you into an expecting woman."

"Expecting wo-"

She stopped dead in her tracks. Did he mean that…? "I AM WITH A CHILD?!" she yelled. Her father looked at her surprised, but shook his head yes. She felt dizzy and fell back onto her seat, he got up and called for a medic.

Maki woke around midnight. She sniffed around to see if someone was near, but smelled no one, and if she did smell someone, it was stale. She hopped out of her window, jumped onto the grass and transformed into a giant neko. Once in her transformed state, she ran, but only fast enough so she wouldn't hurt her...Err…umm…puppy kittens. She called out to her mate and he came in a flash. "What is it dear mate?" He asked. He wasn't in his dog form so she made herself into her humanoid form. Her ears twitched and then lowered. His smile fell and he looked at her with a serious face, "What is wrong my little kitten." He said. She blushed, he called her kitten a while back, and she loved the name, only because she was a neko demoness. "Puppy..." She started. "I have to tell you something important." He looked at her. "Go on kitten." He said. "Well…I'm…Pregnant, with your she-pup" She said happily. Karuno turned pale. "What…" He said. "Isn't it exciting?" She said beaming with pride. "How could you…" He thought for a second. "But...no…. it can't be!" She said. "W-w-what's wrong?"She asked. He looked at her, anger was all she saw. "Good night…" He said flatly. "But puppy!" He turned around. "Don't you ever call me that!" he half snarled half growled. She stiffened, fear was evident in her eyes, and if he saw it he didn't show any hints of backing down. "I cannot have a pup with you…" He said putting venom in each word. "I thought this would work out… I thought I could show the others that 'little cats' are worth something." She gasped. All this time he was here to prove something ?! And to prove that cats are only good to mess with! She hissed at him. He in return growled. "Fine I will tell my father about YOUR child!" His eyes widened. "THEN IT'S WAR!" He spat. They both turned into their giant forms and battled; of course the demons from each side heard it and waged war. The daughter of the king in the Neko kingdom, and the first son of the king in the dog demon kingdom battled until reinforcements arrived. Everyone transformed and battled but only one battle consisted of real hate, the battle of Maki and Karuno.

Two more months past and the war was still going. Maki and Karuno where fighting when she yelped in pain. Karuno was about to deliver a death blow while she was weakened, but something stopped him. That scent! She was going to have the child. He didn't want to kill the baby because she didn't do anything, he thought of an idea. "Ha! You are weakened by your child." He said loud enough for her father to hear, and when his sensitive ears picked it up, he threw off a dog demon and dashed over to his daughter, knocking the young prince over. "Why didn't you deliver the final blow!? His father yelled. "Yes…Why didn't you…Unless…" Maki's father said. "I am the father of the child." He said. The old man looked at his daughter, then at him. "Do you wish to save your child?" He asked. He thought about it. Either kill the man, meaning he would lose the child and keep his place next to his father, or help the man helping his child come into the world, but he loses everything. He knew what he had to do. "What do you want me to do?" He asked. He smiled, "Stand guard." He said. He stood there pushing both dog and cat demons out of the way. He heard a crying sound he looked at Maki to see her holing a tiny child. "Now go! Go to the well! She will be safe there!" He yelled, lunging at some dog demons. He looked at Maki and in a brief second, he said his apology to her, she nodded. He then ran off in search of the well

He ran as fast as he could, so fast that the trees where just brown blurs. The child whimpered to tell him to slow down, but he didn't listen. He kept running until he saw light. And with that, he skidded to a halt. He looked around and saw that not too far away was a well. He was about to leap to it when he heard the voices of Dog demons. Danm it! They tracked me. He thought. Karuno released a scent that told them to back off, but he knew it would only work for a little while. He raced to the well and was about to drop the baby in when he got attacked by dog demons. He roared out in pain and swiped one with his giant paw, who was sent flying. Two more came up and pounced on him, while another bent down to eat the child. "NO!" A voice yelled. "Maki, get back!" He yelled. She shook her head and leaped on the dog who tried to eat her daughter. But the tables quickly turned on her as he pinned her down "Stupid felines!" He snarled "The only thing you good at is trickery, and maybe you can be of some use in the bedroom." He whispered in her ear, audible enough for Karuno to hear. That's when he snapped. Karuno lunged up and bit one of the dog demon's neck, killing him. He lunged for the other and killed him as well. All he had to do was growl and the third one got off of his mate. "The child…" She managed to rasp out. He looked at his child and gasped in horror. The little child started to wail form the sting of his injuries. This made Maki sit up and walk to her child. "These are holy burns!" She said while trying not to cry. Karuno gritted his teeth, how could demons use holy power? "We must get her to a miko and quick!" She said. He nodded and transformed back into his human form. He picked up his mate and ran to the village he saw close to the well.

When he got there he saw a woman, he knew she was a miko because she sent her aura over to him to warn him to stay away. This confused him, usually, mikos would react quickly and purify any demon, but she was giving him a warning. He walked up to her. "Are you not a demon?" She asked. "I am." He answered.

"Then you can read auras?" She asked.

"Yes, I can." He answered.

"Then you must have felt my warning, if you wish to keep that half mixed baby of yours then you best leave."

He growled, "I came to ask for your help."

"That's a first." She replied.

"My daughter…She has holy burns… I wish to heal her!" He said desperately.

Kikyo heard the despair in his voice. "Let me look at her." She told him. He nodded. "Maki let me see the child." He whispered. She nodded in her sleep and opened her eyes to reveal a blue eyed raven haired girl. He smiled and picked her up. He was just about to give the child to her when he realized that the two look alike. "Are you done comparing me with her?" Kikyo asked. "Hai, I am, Gomen umm?" He didn't really catch her name "Kikyo, its Kikyo." She replied. An hour later she walked up to someone a little shorter than she was. "Keade… I need you to go get someone for me, another miko to be exact." She said. Keade nodded, "Yes sister, but the only other miko ye know except Tsubaki is…" Kikyo nodded. "Yes, she is the one, pick out your favorite horse and go to her. "Hai sister, I will not let ye down!" She said running into the stables and bolting out with a horse. "Miko, enlighten me, who is she getting?" Karuno said. "You may calm yourself if you think I am planning something. I am a miko after all." She said. "Yes, but that's what worries me, you are a miko." He retorted.

Kikyo said nothing as she started to walk away. To where she was going, Karuno already knew, but was puzzled by the means of going there. She was heading straight to a half demon, and a half dog at that. Maybe she thinks he is my comrade. He thought, but then he laughed. I mean a half-breed with the prince of one of the dog demon kingdoms? Not likely. Karuno looked at Maki. He cursed himself for getting angry at her, it was his anger that started it, he was suppose to be excited about having a child, but instead he let anger and fear take hold. He sighed, and decided to let sleep take over him.

Morning soon came and instead of waking up by himself, he was talked by a demon. A half demon.

"What are you doing here?" The half-breed snarled.

"That is none of your business half-breed! And you will not talk to me in such a manor!" Karuno said as he kicked him in the stomach, which left the half demon breathless.

"That's enough!" Someone yelled.

We both looked up to see Kikyo. "InuYasha, he is a guest, you will refrain from hurting him." She warned.

InuYasha looked at her. "Keh, whatever wench, I'm out of here." He started to walk off when someone yelled out Kikyo's name.

"Sister! Sister! I have her!" She yelled. The little girl stopped her horse and got off of it, and on the end was a miko, a powerful miko. "Good work Keade." She turned towards the other miko. "Midoriko, it has been a while has it not?" She said in greeting. "A while it has been, but I must ask, why do you require my services?" She asked. Kikyo looked at Karuno. "Come I shall show you." Kikyo led Midoriko, Keade, and I into her hut where my daughter lie, sleeping. Midoriko looked at the demon child. "These are holy burns." She confirmed. "Yes and this demon prince begged me to save her." Kikyo said. "Watch your tongue woman, I asked you, not begged you." He said sternly. She looked at him; boredom was all her eyes said. "I see…I cannot heal them myself." Midoriko said. "Why ever not! I yelled. Midoriko looked at him unfazed. "The child is hurting because of the holy wounds, and because she is cross bred, it makes it worse, she is double demon, half neko, and half dog. She put up a strong demotic barrier that not even I can break." She concluded.

A jolt of pride hit Karuno. His own daughter was stronger than this experienced miko. "What are we to do?" He asked. Midoriko thought a bit. "I must insert some of my miko energy into her" He froze. "Won't it kill her, or make her human?" He asked. "Not if I do it correctly. Kikyo, aid me in this." She ordered. Kikyo got by the child and put her hands on her like Midoriko did. "Now do not force purifying energy, but peaceful energy, we must deceive her yoki into thinking it's not miko energy." She said. The room was lit up with a blue color. He started to see a red barrier that was his daughter's. The blue energy started seeping into the barrier, making a crack sound in the hut. A tail curling crack filled the room in darkness, when she picked up the baby and walked outside, he saw that her wounds where healing. He smiled, but it didn't last long before he heard screams. He looked to see giant dog demons attacking the village. He was about to transform, when Midoriko stopped him, "Take her to the well now!" She yelled. He grabbed the child and with demon speed he ran to the well. "Good bye little one." Karuno said. "Daddy!" She squealed. A tear went down his face. He dropped her in the well to face the horde of giant dogs. But as quickly as he went into battle, his life gave out and was killed by four dogs.
