Chapter 1: Vampires, Demons, and Miko
Kagome sat on the stairs leading down to the ancient well. "It has been three days, Kagome, maybe you should let it go." She turned towards her mother, eyes sad.
"I know Momma, I was just thinking over my last week." Kagome answered before her eyes widened as she felt 2 very familiar auras. "How did they know?" She whispered in awe before running out and freezing. "You haven't aged a day." She told the 2 men.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha gasped, seeing her in the same condition as when she disappeared from the Fuedal Era. Sesshomaru flashed to her side and lifted her arm, seeing it still bleeding sluggishly.
"Sister, you haven't healed yet." He growled scenting demon poison in the wound. "Poison." He informed them shortly. Kagome blushed having forgotten her wounds.
"I forgot about purifying it and awakening my healing powers." She explained sheepishly.
"How long ago did you return?" The full-demon demanded, licking the wound, healing her easily.
"3 days." She answered before grinning at him. "Thank you, Onii-chan." Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes at her.
"Hhn." He responded, releasing her and turning tow see Kagome's human family.
"Keh, let me see if I remember correctly." Inuyasha said. "Karin, Souta, and Lee." He announced pointing to them in turn.
"Yep." Souta smiled.
"Correct." Kagome's mother bowed politely.
"Evil Demon! Bego-" Offas flew from the old man.
"Granpa!" Kagome snapped at him, glaring at him until he stopped.
"Forgive our intyrusion, we are Sesshomaru and Inuyasha Tashio." Sesshomaru introduced properly.
"Of Tashio Company?" Lee, Granpa, clarified shocked. Sesshomaru nodded sharply, while Inuyasha grinned.
"Duh, who else would we be?" He asked sarcastically.
"Inuyasha," Kagome said sweetly. Sesshomaru moved both himself and her away from the idiot. "Sit boy." She ordered, glaring as he was slammed to the ground.
"Have you forgotten your manners, Little brother?" Sesshomaru smirked.
"500 years and he still acts stupid." Kagome groaned, shaking her head. Inuyasha growled lifting his head, eyes showing his demon side in control.
"Control your beast, Inuyasha." Sesshomaru snarled in warning. Inuyasha swiped his claws at the remark.
"Bad Puppy!" Kagome scolded, hitting him over the head with the shrine broom. He blinked before his eyes returned to normal.
"Oi, Wench, I'm older-" The half-demon began before she interrupted.
"Sit, sit, sit." She snapped as she turned back to the demon lord. "tea, Lord Sesshomaru?" She asked in an entirely different tone. He nodded and everyone, but Inuyasha who was unconscious, entered the small house. Over tea Karin mentioned a letter from a Kaien Cross. "Wait a sec, Mom, isn't that my father's name?" She asked also noting how Sesshomaru's eyes widen the tiniest bit.
"Yes, he wants you to attend his school." Her mother responded bluntly.
"Why not, at least I would get to meet him." Kagome told her mother. "What's the school?" She asked as an afterthought.
"Cross Academy, humans and supernatural attend. Only Vampires so far though." Sesshomaru informed his blood-sister.
"Vampires, like the one who let us stay in his manor prior to Naraku's defeat?" Kagome asked, her eyes flickering as her illusion fluctuated slightly.
"Indeed, now why don't you drop your illusion and save your powers." He answered gruffly. Kagome giggled and suddenly her hair, eyes, skin, and nails changed. Her once pure black, mid-back hair now had silver streaks and was reaching her ankles, her blue eyes had golden, pink and red flecks, her skin grew milk white, and she had demon nails.
"Much better." She said, stretching and relaxing before turning back to her mother. "Shall we write him or call?" She asked raising her eyebrow.
"He gave me a number, you can call him." Karin offered quietly. "Then you don't have to-" She was cut off by a voice outside.
"Why is a guy sleeping in a crater?" The voice was female, both Sesshomaru and Kagome inhaled deeply.
"Vampire, human and Hunter." Sesshomaru said with a low growl. A knock on the door caused Kagome to stand. She opened the door and gasped, feeling the hunter's powers.
"Hello, may I ask your names and why you are here?" She asked politely.
"Yes I am here to see Karin Higarashi." The hunter answered. "This is Zero, Yuki, and my name is K-" He was cut off by Inuyasha jumping up and shouting.
"Kagome what the hell was that for?" He demanded.
"Sit boy." She answered activating his beads again. "Mom, visitors!" She called into the house. "Come in please." She added to the shocked trio. "If you can behave, Inuyasha, com in as well." She led them to the living room and rolled her eyes at Zero's growl.
Sesshomaru snorted at the sound, not even concerned with the vampire. "He still acting like an ignorant pup?" He asked the demon miko.
"Yep, he's a bad puppy." She grinned eyes laughing.
"Kaien, how are you?" Karin asked, causing Kagome to snap her head towards the hunter in shock.
"That's my father?" She asked, shocking everyone as her eyes bleed red with her blue irises becoming teal. Zero, sensing danger growled a warning. Sesshomaru snarled allowing his beast closer, the whites of his eyes becoming blood red. Kagome whimpered and bared her throat to her alpha. He advanced upon his little sister and licked her neck, accepting her submission before both returned to normal.
"What happened to MY DAUGHTER!" Kaien demanded, his hunter powers filling the air. Reacting to the challenge, Sesshomaru flashed over and lifted the hunter by his throat, holding him nearly 3 feet off the ground.
"Anaki, please don't hurt him." Kagome spoke quietly. She flashed across the room and placed a hand on his shoulder, and when he growled a refusal she narrowed her eyes and her tone changed, much like her father when he was truly serious. "Sesshomaru Tashio, Cardinal Demon Lord of the West, as the Shikon Miko, I, Kagome Higarashi Tashio, command the release of my sire." The pure power of a very powerful, very angry miko filled the room with blue light.
Sesshomaru's response was a low growl of acceptance as he released the Vampire Hunter, dropping him before turning to her. "Forgive this Sesshomaru's lack of control, Shikon Miko."
"Of course, my blood brother." She answered, returning to her normal, happy tone. Hearing Sesshomaru's cell phone vibrate made Kagome blink before giggling. He raised an eyebrow as he lifted the phone from his pocket and answered.
"Sesshomaru." Hearing the squawk on the other end caused her to begin laughing, loudly.
"Hi Jaken!" She called out to the imp, narrowing her eyes at his response. "Call me that again and I will purify your ass." She snapped at the little demon. "Stupid toad." She whined before a cough drew her attention back to those in the room with her. "HeHeHe, opps!" She giggled t their expressions. her eyes narrowed as she noticed the light bruising around Kaien's neck. She approached him slowly, hand glowing blue and reaching for his injury. "I'm just going to heal you." She said before touching his neck. Her powers made short work of the damages, both internal and external.
"Thank you Kagome." He said when the glow disappeared. She smiled and turned to look back at Sesshomaru, worry on her face.
"Very well Jaken, Inuyasha and I will head over immediately." He said before hanging up on the still speaking demon. "We have to got. Here." He told her, offering a new phone from a different pocked. rolling her eyes Kagome took the phone before wrapping her arms around his massive form. He stiffened briefly before wrapping not only his arms, but also his aura and mokomoko around her smaller frame. "Call before you leave for school, I will escort you." He ordered gently.
"No problem, we should catch up sometime. It may have been only 3 days for me, but it has been 500 years for you." She answered with a cheeky grin.
"Hhn. Inuyasha, we are leaving." He intoned to his younger brother.
"Keh, fine." A red and white blur flashed up to Kagome. "Bye Kagome." He said before hugging the priestess. "Thankyou for your hospitality." He said formally bowing to her family. He joined Sesshomaru as the left the shrine. Kagome smiled and waived as the disappeared from sight.
"What did that mean?" Kaien asked, having not understood the majority of the happenings the entire time they had been present.
"Umm, ask and I will try to explain properly." Kagome offered, taking a seat.
"Okay let's start with the guy from outside." He answered causing Kagome to blush.
"That was Inuyasha, he is a half-demon, younger son of the Inu No Tashio, a dog demon."
"Telling him to sit?" Yuki asked confused.
"Beads of Subjugation around his neck, originally used to stop him form attacking me for the Shikon no Tama." She said. "Now used when he is being rude or stupid." She added with a grin.
"Demons don't exist." Zero snapped angrily.
"Neither do Vampires." Kagome retorted causing Yuki to snort in humor.
"Half-demon?" Kaien wondered.
"Human mother, demon father."
"Your eyes changed colors." Her mother remembered aloud.
"That is because 2 weeks ago both Sesshomaru and Inuyasha adopted me into their family as a blood sister, in case I couldn't return home." She answered. "I gained some of their looks and personalities along with becoming the first and only demon miko.
"Shikon no Tama?" Zero asked, remembering the legend.
"Yep, it's gone now, unmade in fact." She specified smirking.
"How old are you?" Yuki spoke up.
"18 give or take 500 years or so." Came the blunt reply.
"500 years?" Kaien asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Up until 3 days ago I was able to time-travel back tot he feudal era." She answered honestly. "For 3 years I walked all over Fuedal Japan to find the shards of the Sacred Jewel of Four Souls."
"Will you join us at Cross Academy?" Her father asked gently, hope filling his eyes.
"Give me a couple weeks but yes." She answered with a sigh.
"NO problem, we will discuss this then." Kaien informed her. "Yuki, Zero, we need to return to the school anyway." He told his students.
"Great I will call you later this week to give you a move-in date." Kagome informed him with a crazy grin. They left after exchanging numbers.
