Prequel
The Prophecy
Kagome's Birth:
It had been hours and hours of painful labor for Kio Higurashi. This child who was within her was her first, a little girl whom she decided to name Kagome. It was close to three in the morning when she heard the beautiful cry of her new born baby girl. She rested herself back on the bed, utterly exhausted. A smile formed upon her lips as the doctor walked up to her side holding her small Kagome. Kio took Kagome into her arms lovingly and was surprised to see the appearance of her daughter. She had black hair and what seemed to be silver streaks in them. On her forehead was a backwards silver crescent moon and her eyes were a silvery blue color. It was then that she heard a voice that shook her very bones.
"When the hurt of betrayal descends, the warrior will arise. Born of pain, heartache, and sadness the chosen will come forth, wielding the power to destroy the darkness that threatens to swallow this earth. But beware for there are those who will seek to use her for evil. Should she be swayed by them to do their bidding the world will fall into eternal darkness."
Kio's eyes widened as the voice, which was clearly female, spoke. After the voice faded Kio noticed her daughter's crescent moon marking was gone, along with the silver highlights in her hair. Her eyes had changed to a clear aqua blue, no hint of silver at all. Puzzled as ever, Kio knew that her little daughter would save the world one day. 'Oh little Kagome.' She thought, looking down at her small daughter that lay sleeping in her arms. 'If only your father were still alive to see his beautiful daughter.' Her eyes grew misty as she looked out the window. 'Oh Kaemon, if only you could see her. She looks so much like you in her other form.' She closed her eyes, picturing her beloveds face in her mind. 'Your heritage will live through in her.' She opened her eyes and looked down at her small daughter. 'I must be sure that no one knows about this until she is ready to fulfill her destiny.'
She placed glanced around, making sure no one else was in the room. When she was sure no one was around she placed a hand onto her daughters forehead and her hand began to glow pink. She closed her eyes and began to speak, "On the day of your 18th birthday will the form of the protector arise and your true form will take its place. Sealed until then it will lay at bay until that fateful day." She opened her eyes and stared down at Kagome. "Little Kagome, you are meant for great things." She looked out the window and stared up at the crescent moon, knowing that a day would come that she would have to explain to her daughter what had happened on this very day. Her heritage would be hidden until that day. No one must know about Kaemon's daughter, that was why he had sent his mate through the bone eaters well to this time, trying to keep his mate and daughter safe.
Sesshomaru's Birth:
The great Dog General of the West, InuTaisho, paced the corridor as he fought to control his youkai that was trying to break loose. 'Mate is hurting! Must go to her!' His youkai growled within her mind. He shoved it back further, knowing if he let him loose, everyone around his mate would be harmed. His eyes flashed from their golden color, to red, and then back again. Every male servant was nowhere to be seen, knowing their lives would end the moment any one of them stepped foot into that corridor.
After a long, painstaking day, one of the healers stepped out into the hallway. InuTaisho rushed forward, eyes eager for the news that she had. She smiled and bowed to the lord, "Your son and mate await you Lord." She stepped back as he swept into the room and to the bedside of his mate. He looked down at the small bundle that she held in her arms. He had silver hair and piercing golden eyes, just like his father. He had two magenta colored stripes on his cheeks and the same color of stripes that started at his ankles and winded up his legs to his hips and on his arms that started at his wrists and winded up to his shoulders. On his forehead was a blue crescent moon, something that he had inherited from his mother, not his father.
When he was looking over his son, both himself and his mate were startled by a voice that came out of nowhere and it was clear that only they could hear it.
"Out of the west will the Protector come forth, bound to the warrior by fate. Only he can protect and save her from the evil that threatens to overtake this world. Should he fail in his task, the world shall be doomed.
When the hurt of betrayal descends, the warrior will arise. Born of pain, heartache, and sadness the chosen will come forth, wielding the power to destroy the darkness that threatens to swallow this earth. But beware for there are those who will seek to use her for evil. Should she be swayed by them to do their bidding the world will fall into eternal darkness.
When the two become one, the crescent moon shall arise and all shall be saved."
His mate looked up at him, her eyes wide after taking in what had just happened. "Mate," She started but was cut off.
"Have no worries mate. Our son will be safe until this warrior comes forth." He put a gentle hand on the side of his mates face. "Our son is the Protector. We shall teach him well." He looked down at his son, 'My son, when the time arises, you must protect the warrior. If not, all shall be destroyed.'
