Your Mind vs. Your Heart

The teenager sighed her triangular black ears twitching with slightly irritation. The part asian girl sipped the bitter coffee and quickly sat the sugarless drink on to the table. Her naturally narrowed silver eyes studied the man across from her as her four midnight black tails waved leisurely behind her. She closed her eyes and allowed another sigh to pass her plump lips.

"Charlie, Where is Bella now?" She questioned and Charlie carelessly shrugged. The girl snarled in annoyance causing Charlie to shift uncomfortably in his seat. To any bystander it would be nearly comical how this tiny female frightened the much larger man.

"Your daughter is an danger magnet. I warned you to keep an eye on her because even at the age of one she was drawing in strange creatures. Charlie I understand your fear of magic and everyone associated with it but I had hoped for the sake of your daughter you would put that fear aside. She would want to extend her life and there is only one way to do that. Will you push her away as you have done your brother just because you are afraid?" She questioned slowly standing up from her place across from him. Her words penetrated his very soul and tears filled the large man's eyes. He blinked away the moisture as he stared up in to the face of the ageless woman.

"Aunt Kagome" He said sounding like the lost child from twenty-five years ago. Kagome eyes softened and she walked around the table. She allowed Charlie to bury his head in to her stomach. She gently ran her clawed hands through his silky brown hair. He wrapped his arms around her slender waist and pulled her to him.

"No matter how old you get you will always be my favorite pup." Kagome whispered as she felt moisture soak through her thin shirt. She understood Charlie's fear of the supernatural. When he was only nine years old he had witness his mother changed in to an vampire and murder his father and baby sisters. Only he and his twin brother was sparred and Kagome had personally saw to the female newborns execution and raised Charlie and Chase in this very house.

"I will go retrieve Bella and remove this threat from this area. In six months time I will return and remove the seal from Bella's blood turning her in to a youkai. You have six months Charlie to decide whether or not you want to be apart of your daughter's life. No matter what you choose I will support you." Kagome informed him softly her voice carrying an soothing growl and her hands glowed an baby blue. Charlie nodded in understanding letting his mother figure go. Kagome patted his head affectionately and Charlie looked up at her with an familiar watery smile.

"I will return home with your daughter tonight. Then I'll cook or everyone including my new nephew. Why don't you go to work and maybe sneak me one of your shotguns. I have a feeling we are going to be planning a shotgun wedding." Kagome teased and Charlie chuckled.

"Alright Aunt Kagome." he agreed and he watched as she slowly walked out of the door. It never came to mind to remind her to put on her concealment spell. Hell he was thinking of ways to torture the young couple. He slowly stood and went upstairs to prepare himself for work. He felt more comfortable now that he had managed to talk to someone who understood him. His mind would also be at ease if he knew that Kagome would insure his daughter safety by exterminating the vampire that was lurking just outside his home.

So the cubs smell me. At least I know they are not completely useless. Kagome thought as she continued slowly circle the clearing agitating the posed boy. Kagome was not the type of alpha who choose the mates for everyone in her pack partly because she believed that love should not be forced. Also, she had seen the horrors of a forced mating and she shivered as she thought of the mangled body of her allies daughter. The feline was beaten brutally and her disfigured kitten/ snake laid gasping for air by her side.

"What's wrong Jacob?" Bella asked oblivious to her Great Aunt's presence. Kagome smiled mischievously and a purposeful rumble escaped her chest gaining the cub's attention. Her and his eyes met and he growled. A deep rooted horror was covered by false bravado and Kagome chuckled.

"Kagome" Jacob growled and Kagome walked in to the open shadows. Bella smiled with happiness and jumped up to great her Aunt. Kagome held up her hand silently stilling Bella.

"Hello Jacob you've grown a lot bigger and that spirit has a very strong control over you. I wonder if such a weak minded boy is really worth my Bella's heart." Kagome said and Bella's eyes widened as she watch Jacob go from slightly agitated to an snarling wolf. Bella remembered when she was younger all those days Kagome would tease and torment Jacob to the point of tears. No one ever understood Kagome's fascination with teasing Jacob. Kagome looked calmly in to Jacobs pitch black eyes and critically looked over his brown fur. She was only a good six feet shorter than he was and from what she could tell he could probably take on a majority of the threats in this area. Kagome heard the boy bark but did not pay attention to him as she continued to analyze the situation.

"I will fight you in one weeks time, Jacob. As you know I am Bella's alpha and you must fight me for the right to her. For now why don't we all go back to Charlie's house so that I can explain some things." Kagome suggested but Jacob was to far gone to listen to reason. Bella screamed his name as he lunged at Kagome.

He's quick also and needs to improve his control but than again all wolves have such short tempers. Kagome thought as jumped up in to the air and flipped gracefully on to Jacobs back. Her hands glowed a errie blue and she touched the irrational wolf. He stopped in his tracks and fell to the ground. Jacob whimpered as he got in to an comfortable position on the ground. Kagome hopped of his back and stilled the panicking Bella.

"He's fine I just hit him with a spell used to calm troubled beings. He's tired but give him five minutes and he'll be just as happy as he was before." Kagome explained and was surprised when she felt Bella wrap her arms around her. Kagome smiled warmly and returned the girl's hug.

Bella what you and Charlie don't realize is that your heart no longer belongs to Edward. My only job here is to pull the blinds from over your eyes. Kagome thought as she picked up the sounds of the snoring Jacob.

"While we are waiting for him to wake up why don't I tell you a story." I said jumping off of Jacob's back. I grabbed Bella's hand and dragged her to the nearest tree. We sat down beside one another. It was a beautiful day as the sun shone beautifully on the clear field which we occupied. Jacob's deep and melodic snores was slightly comforting to my battered heart. That brave cub who would die to protect my equally brave if not stubborn Bella was worthy enough to be called my nephew.

"Did Charlie call you down here?" Bella asked getting straight to the point.

"No I came because of Kanna who told me that right now you need me." I informed her calmly and she stiffened.

"Am I in trouble?"

"Of course not Bella!" I said with laughter placing my hand on her shoulder. She relaxed and sighed and even scooted closer towards me. I think her movement towards me was unintentional but I was happy for her shift in position none the less. I've always liked it when my pups were close to me maybe it was a mother thing.

"So what is the emergency?"

"Well I just came here to tell you a story." I answered and Bella gave me a perplexed look a question nearly erupted from her lips. I smiled approvingly when she quelled her urge to question my motives.

"You know the story of how I became a fox demon and how I completed the shikon no tama. Charlie probably gave you the watered down version and say that slowly I came in to power the end, right?" I questioned and Bella nodded.

"Well that stuff is true but what Charlie didn't tell you was that me and my prince in red clothe didn't stay husband and wife. A little after we got married I noticed Inuyasha started wandering off and every time I would mention the fact that I was a demon he would completely loose his mind. After a year of his erratic behavior he left me alone in a village full of humans who wanted nothing more but for me to leave. Sure I saved the world but that didn't matter. I was still a demon a thing to be hated and feared so t villagers tried time and time again to drive me out.

For years I stayed in that village being stoned, beaten, my hut was burnt down a few times but I never left. I never lifted a finger to hurt anyone and I waited patiently for Inuyasha. I also stayed because I didn't want to accept the fact that I was any different than from the people around me. I wanted desperately to believe that I was still human. It wasn't until twenty-five years had passed and Sesshoumaru had came to the village and dragged me kicking and screaming to his castle" I laughed at the memory of the hell I raised when Sesshoumaru dragged me away from my home. I cried, I clawed, I scratched and managed to wound Sesshoumaru a many of times but not once did he ever retaliate he simply continued to push me in the direction he wanted me to go in despite my resistance.

"At the castle Sesshoumaru cared for me and took care of me in a way no one else ever did. He gave me everything my heart desired and more. He helped me realize that what I am now is what I was meant to be. He helped me to become the woman who could conquer the world and still raise a pack full of pups. Inuyasha found me just as I realized how I have come to love Sesshoumaru and he confessed about how much he loved me." I explained my eyes becoming misty. I was foolish back than and despite the fact that I accepted I had to move on the slight sting of heartache still reared it's ugly head.

"Inuyasha came back and despite the fact I knew that he didn't love me I remembered the love we once shared and I wanted it back. Inuyasha was sweet to me and still acted like the boy I married twenty-five years ago but I was still in love with Sesshoumaru. I allowed a past love blind me to the love that Sesshoumaru offered and I broke his heart. He had a heir by one of his concubine's. It was around that time Inuyasha decided to inform me that while he married me he mated his dead lover Kikyo. I was heart broken and than when word came around to me that my best friend Koga and Ayame died in battle and Sesshoumaru was missing . I was stuck raising eight pups on my own if you included Shippo and Maru Jr.. Inuyasha left me and went back to Kikyo and asked me to revive her because he loved her more than life itself. It was then that I realized my mistake. Bella I'm not trying to say that Edward is a bad man but you have to know how much Jake loves you and he is the biggest idiot in the world but he's a tough idiot and I know without a shadow of a doubt that he would protect you with his life. Please Bella I'm begging you don't make the same mistake that I did." I begged before I could gauge Bella's reaction I felt a big wet appendage lick the whole side of my face. I looked up in to the panting wolf's brown eyes and I playfully growled.

I got up and transformed in to my fox form and made sure I was around his size. I barked as I chased him around the clearing listening merrily to Bella's twinkling laughter in the background.
