Months had gone by and Sesshoumaru and Kagome were happily mated. Today, though, was especially exciting for today, Kagome and Sesshoumaru would be presenting their new daughter, Kaiyouko, to King Higurashi and the rest of the undersea kingdom. Kagome held Kaiyouko in her arm and smiled down into her golden eyes. Kaiyouko giggled and stretched out her tiny clawed hands. Kagome smiled and cuddled Kaiyouko close to her and whispered into her ear, "You are so precious to me, Kaiyouko." Kagome then heard the door behind her open and she turned to see Sesshoumaru entering the room. Sesshoumaru walked up to her and placed his arm around her waist. "Isn't she beautiful, Sesshoumaru?" Sesshoumaru smiled and then said, "She is, just like her mother." Kagome looked up at Sesshoumaru and smiled. Sesshoumaru smiled back and then said, "It is time." The two left the cabin onto the deck and joined the celebration.
Kagome and Sesshoumaru walked to the rail and Kagome was excited to see so many familiar faces from the undersea kingdom. "Kaiyouko, this is the world you belong to; a shared world of land and sea." Kaiyouko giggled and clapped her little hands together. Kagome then saw her father surface and come up to the rail of the ship. King Higurashi smiled at his precious granddaughter and then looked at his daughter and son-in-law proudly. "She is beautiful, Kagome." Sesshoumaru wrapped his arm around Kagome and the two happily looked at each other.
King Higurashi looked back at Kaiyouko and said, "Kaiyouko, I have here a very special gift for you." In his hands, he produced a small silver clam shell necklace. Kaiyouko giggled and stretched her small hands towards the necklace. "Kaiyouko, this is not an ordinary locket, this locket is something much more." He opened it and from the locket came a water bubble and Kaiyouko giggled even more as she watched it form into a mermaid shape and swim around her. "With this necklace, Kaiyouko, you will always know that a part of your heart will always belong to the sea." King Higurashi placed the necklace around Kaiyouko's neck and then watched as Kaiyouko played with the necklace.
Everyone was enjoying themselves and conversing together, but that fun was about to end. Just as Kagome was about to take Kaiyouko back into the cabin for her nap, a large tidal wave smashed into the ship, knocking everyone around and knocking Kaiyouko into the arms of Kagura. Kagome had been knocked to the ground and she tried hard to hold onto Kaiyouko, but she was pulled out of her arms. When Kagome was able to sit up, she screamed, "KAIYOUKO!" Kagome and Sesshoumaru ran to the rail and saw that Kagura held Kaiyouko, who was crying.
Kagura laughed and then said, "Well, well, well, isn't this little girl just beautiful. Naraku would just love her." Sesshoumaru growled loudly and said, "Give our daughter back now!" Kagura looked at him and said, "Now why would I do that? With the proper manipulation, this child could rule both worlds with Naraku at her side." Kagome didn't want to hear anymore, so she created a strong current and had it hit Kagura, knocking Kaiyouko out of her grip. Once Kaiyouko was in the air, Sesshoumaru grabbed a rope and swung down and grabbed her. Then both Kagome and King Higurashi used their magic and knocked Kagura back a couple of feet. Kagura knew that this was getting too dangerous for her, so she sank back into the sea, but not before she said, "This far from over. Naraku wants you to know that he will have you Kagome and your precious daughter."
Sesshoumaru landed on the ship and Kagome ran to him. She took Kaiyouko into her arms and held her close with tears streaming down her face. King Higurashi saw the distress that Kagome was in and he turned to his head guard and said, "I want your forces out searching for Naraku!" The guard saluted and said, "Yes, Sire." The merman dove under the surface and his force began their search.
Sesshoumaru had the crew bring the ship back to port right away. Once they were in port, Sesshoumaru and Kagome went down the steps to the shore where King Higurashi was in the shallows along with Kenji. "I'm sorry Kagome, we haven't been able to locate Naraku's lair. It has vanished." Kagome looked down at Kaiyouko and then to her father and said, "Naraku will not give up at trying to get what he wants. Who knows what he will do to succeed. Until he is found, Kaiyouko can't go into the sea and I won't either." King Higurashi stayed silent, but Kenji swam closer and said, "Kagome?" "I'm sorry, but…but this is the only wait to keep Kaiyouko safe." Kagome took the necklace off of Kaiyouko's neck and handed it to her father and said, "Kaiyouko can't know anything about merpeople or the Coral Palace… or even you Father."
King Higurashi sighed and said, "Very well Kagome. You are right." King Higurashi then watched as Kagome and Sesshoumaru headed back up to the palace. He then looked at Kenji and said, "Kenji, I want you to look after Kaiyouko. Here…" He placed his hand over and turned him into a penguin, "…now you can be with her at all times." Kenji bowed and then followed the couple into the castle. King Higurashi sighed sadly and then began to swim a bit, but then he looked down at his hand that held the locket. He squeezed it tightly, but he let it go and watched it sink to the bottom. He then sank below the surface, depressed by the fact that his only daughter and granddaughter would not return to the sea.
-Fifteen Years Later-
A lot had changed in the past years and Kaiyouko had grown into a beautiful young youkai. She had her mother's raven hair that flowed to her lower back and her father's brilliant golden eyes. She was almost as tall as her mother and her body was nice and tone.
Kaiyouko poked her head around the corner and saw that no one was in the hallway, so she slipped around the corner and held her cloak and sack close as she ran down the hall. She sped down the hall and if anyone did see her, she would just be a white blur thanks to her father's speed that she inherited. Kaiyouko ran out of the castle and down the steps to the sea. Behind her, Kenji wobbled down the steps after her. Kaiyouko reached the bottom of the steps and looked around to see if anyone followed her, besides Kenji, and then she grabbed him and jumped over the wall that had been built around the castle.
Once over the wall, Kaiyouko put Kenji down and then took her cloak off to reveal a make shift swim suit. She had a white top wrapped around her and a skirt that had two splits up the sides. Kaiyouko was about to walk into the sea when she heard, "Kaiyouko, you know your mother doesn't want you swimming in the ocean." Kaiyouko looked over her shoulder at Kenji and said, "I know, but I just can't stay away." She then ran into the sea and dove under the surface.
Kaiyouko dove deep and searched the ocean floor for any interesting seashells so she could add them to her growing collection. She searched for a little longer, but then she had to return to the surface for air. When she broke the surface, Kenji was standing on a rock not too far away. Kaiyouko turned onto her back and asked, "Kenji, why does mother hate the ocean so much? I mean, how can anyone hate something so peaceful and calming like the sea?" Kenji was at a loss for words, but he heard Kaiyouko sighed and said, "I love the sea and I would give anything to be apart of it." With that, she dove back under the surface to feel the freedom of the sea around her. Kenji sighed, shook his head, and said, "You are so much like your mother."
Kaiyouko enjoyed the refreshing feeling of the water surrounding her and she wished with all of her heart that she could be apart of the sea. As she was swimming, she happened to look down at the ocean floor at the right time when the sunlight hit something silver. Curiosity hit her, so she swam down and brushed away the sand to reveal a beautiful silver clam necklace. Kaiyouko smiled and grabbed it and then headed to the surface.
Far below the surface hidden in the deep shadows, Naraku watched Kaiyouko from Kanna's mirror and grinned evilly when he saw her pick up the silver necklace. "Well, well, well, look what beautiful Kaiyouko found." Kagura snorted and said, "So what. It is just a necklace." Naraku growled and said, "Shut up! That necklace will give Kaiyouko a clue of who she really is and when she discovers the truth, she'll have tons of questions that Kagome will not tell her. I will be the only one that she can turn to." He turned back to the mirror and continued to watch.
Kaiyouko rubbed her fingers over the necklace and admired it. Kenji waddled up closer to her and said, "Kaiyouko please lets go back. If your mother or father ever found out that you have been swimming out here…" Kaiyouko sighed and said, "I know, I know, they would flip out." She turned onto her back and sighed again. "Why can't they understand that the sea is apart of who I am?" Kenji kept quiet as Kaiyouko thought to herself, but then he noticed that the sun was starting to set and he gasped and said, "Ah, Kaiyouko, I don't mean to yank you out of your thoughts, but we really need to head back or you'll be late." Kaiyouko sat up and yelled, "The party!" She swam over to the rock and grabbed her sack and then quickly swam back to shore. She grabbed her cloak and ran towards the castle in hope that no one noticed that she was gone.
