Kagome woke to the sound of metal clashing and she took one guess, Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were fighting again. Kagome decided that she'd had enough of this fighting and that she was going to end it.

She stood up and walked through the clearing toward the two males fighting. Inuyasha stopped just as his nose took over and he looked over and felt her coming and he knew that they were toast for waking up Kagome. She came through the clearing just as she heard Inuyasha yell, "oh shit she's coming this way and she's not happy!"

Sesshomaru felt her presence and he turned his body around and faced Kagome. His plan was working perfect, he was fighting with Inuyasha in hopes of waking Kagome up, and now that she was awake he could put the rest of his plan into action. Kagome and Inuyasha both sensed that he had something up his sleeve as he turned toward her and said ,"Good morning Miko, did we disturb you?". As she looked at him, she snarled and then stated "Yes you damn well disturbed me!", then she paused and glared icily over to Inuyasha and growled "Sit boy".

Inuyashas's eyes got as big as baseballs and he quickly dropped down to his rump, and whimpered slightly. Sesshomaru took advantage of Inuyasha while he was down and ran toward Kagome, smacking Inuyasha in the back of the head with his fist as he ran by. She seemed stunned at the notion of him coming at her and she began to scream but he reached her just in time and covered her mouth before the yell escaped her lips.

When Inuyasha comes to his senses and looks up, he finds out Kagome is missing he starts to search only to find Sesshomaru's scent all over the place, but no Kagome. He later comes to find out Shippo is missing as well and he leaves out to find Sango and Mirku.

"I have no idea where they are, and haven't seen them in days either" Sango said. "They said they on the way to the castle" Miroku added.

Sesshomaru started talking to Kagome, asking her what she knew of the Youki mating ceremony, and she replied "I don't know much of it, I have only heard stories here and there of the actual ceremony though I am very curious".

"Kagome, I have decided to take you for my mate" He added. She really didn't understand what he meant so she turned to him and said "I thought that you hated nigans?"

Sesshomaru thought for a minute and then carefully said "Some of them yes, but I have been looking at you for a while now, and spending so much time with you that I have decided I want you for a mate". "You're a beautiful, very powerful woman, and I have fallen for You." Can u love me like I love you?" Kagome thought about what he had said for just a moment, and then Shippo pops out of Kagome's bag with a very pissed look. Kagome screams out of nowhere "SHIPPO! I thought I'd lost you back there".

Sesshomaru goes to reach for Shippo but Kagome is quicker and beats him to the bag baring her teeth at him and shouts "You hurt Shippo and I'll never be your mate, you got that". Sesshomaru realizes what she said and backs up a few feet, and proceeds to tell her "In a week's time we will be mated and you will learn to be Lady of the lands".

Kagome begins to wonder quietly, will I be a good lady or will they reject me because I am not like him. Her thoughts are then ruined by a comment from Mr. Ice king himself, stating that the ceremony will be at the end of the week, and I will then mark you as mine.

They get to the castle and Kagome's jaw drops as she stutters "This is your castle? Holy crap." As they walk inside she see's many things that are of interest, and before she can go on Sesshomaru stops her and says "For now, this is your room Kagome. If you go in you can have a bath and meet me for dinner in an hour. Please wear the Kamono I have had picked out for you".
