Last Time
It was then that Kagome remembered about the other set of keys and called her mom. Her mom informed her that she also had a ranch in New Orleans. Kagome had made up her mind. She was going to visit her friends in New Orleans. She informed Madara of this and he didn't care. "A vacation from fighting is just what we need" said Kagome as she sent an email out to all of her girlfriends informing them that she owned a ranch and would be there in a few days. She then purchased two tickets and then both she and Madara got very intimate with each other.
Chapter 1
This takes place right before Tia was killed. Tabby and Val are just beginning their relationship, everyone knows about it they just don't like it. The girls know Kagome through various meetings. Kagome had spent a summer in New Orleans right after her first trip through the well.
Amanda Hunter had awoken at 5 am. She just had the urge to check her email. Kyrian asked her where she was going so early. "I have the sudden need to check my email" as she said an email caught her eye. "I don't believe it. She's coming" she exclaimed running to get her phone. "Who is coming?" asked Kyrian watching her run through the room. "My longtime friend Kagome; well actually she's friends with like everyone. I have to call the girls and let them know. She's arriving at the airport tonight" Kyrian just shook his head. He had yet to make a connection of the Kagome he knew and the Kagome his wife knew. "I'm going back to sleep"
Amanda called Tabby first, "There better be a damn good reason why you are calling so early in the morning" stated a very crabby Tabby. "Tabbs, check your email. Don't ask questions, Just do it" stated a very excited Amanda. Tabitha checked her email and looked at the one from Kagome, "I don't believe. Priestess is coming for a visit" "I know I am going to call the others" said Amanda as she hung up.
Amanda then called Sunshine; "Hello" said a voice. "Talon, tell Sunny to check her email right now" commanded Amanda. "Sunny, Amanda wants you to check your email" Sunshine went and checked her email and then grabbed the phone, "She coming here" she exclaimed excitedly. "I know I have the others to call" Amanda continued to make her phone calls and had just finished calling Tory when all the girls and their very confused counterparts showed up with them.
"I don't get it" said Talon. "Neither do I" said Vane. "I have learned just to go with it" said Bill. "Who is this Kagome?" asked Ash. "The Simi would like to know too" said Simi while twirling her hair. All the girls looked at them and it was Tory who spoke, "Kagome is Kagome. She's our best friend" "Yeah, she's one of those people that just can't help helping others" stated Sunshine
"Where did you meet her?" asked Vane looking at Bride. "We all met her under different circumstances. Actually, it's because of her that we all know each other" stated Selena. "Let's see, I met her when I first came into my abilities. She was the only one who took what I said to heart" stated Amanda. "She fought off a group of guys who wouldn't leave me alone" stated Bride. "She let me test my potions out on her" stated Tia. "She told me to have faith in myself when I was beginning my tarot business" stated Selena. "She taught me to never give up" stated Tory. "She taught me basic self-defense" stated Tabby. "She told me not to give up on love" stated Grace. "She taught me to be proud of my heritage" stated Sunshine. By then all the girls looked at each other and had the same thought, "Things were so much easier when she was here. She just had this smile that chased all the bad things away" exclaimed Tia.
"She sounds like a saint" said Talon. "That she is. She makes a wonderful friend, but a dangerous enemy" said Tabby and all the girls nodded their heads in unison. "The Simi would like to meet this Kagome. She sounds like quality people" "You just might. She owns a ranch in New Orleans and is flying in tonight. Although, I can't believe she got married" said Amanda. "You know with her personality she could make everyone her friend" said Sunshine. "Yeah, you're probably right" said Grace. "Come on we have to throw a welcome party for her and her husband" said Bride. "That husband of hers better not hurt her" said Tabby. The girls giggled but they all had the same thoughts.
The counterparts were still beside themselves, but they did agree that for their wives' sake they better meet this Kagome person and play nice if she was that important. "Well I guess we are throwing a party" stated Vane. They chose Kyrian and Amanda's place for the party. "Now I know none of you get along with Valerius, but for Kagome's sake you all better just behave" said Bride very sternly. The men grunted in response. It was at that time that Desiderius decided to plan his attacks. Everyone had forgotten about Kagome at the moment and went to fight the Daimons.
Meanwhile, at the airport, Kagome got that feeling as soon as they landed. "Make a clone of yourself; they will get our luggage and a car. We have places to be" stated Kagome. Madara was confused but complied nonetheless. Kagome then gave the clones their instructions and headed off to where she felt Tia dying. They had arrived at Tia's place and they hid themselves from watching eyes. "That bastard has taken Tia's soul. I won't let him" said Kagome as she went and retrieved Tia's soul. The enemy had left and Kagome felt another person dying and another one in extreme pain. She went to the one that was dying. Tia had taken on a ghostly shape, "Kagome, you are here. I must say I am glad that you arrived when you did" "It was nothing Tia. I am not about to let some idiot suck out your soul" said Kagome as they continued towards a house. Inside the house she saw someone about to kill themselves, "Madara, stop him. I can't bring back those who commit suicide" Madara complied and knocked him unconscious, while she went over to the body. "Her soul is still intact. That's good" and with that Kagome used a technique very similar to Tensaiga and resurrected her. She then put her into a deep sleep. During that time she had felt two soul's die one of which was Amanda, but no sooner had it happened she was resurrected and she and the other soul were given immortality. "Come we must get your body if you wish to remain among the living" stated Kagome. "We'll have to bring them with us. I don't know if they will need memory modification or not. As I myself am not completely sure what happened this night" They headed off following Kagome as she went in the direction she felt Tia's body. "It seems to be in that house" stated Kagome. "That's Amanda's house" stated Tia's ghost. "Well then let's get to it then" said Kagome with a chirp.
"Tia's gone. Why can't you bring her back just like you did with Amanda?" cried out Tabitha. "I can't feel her soul" said Ash. "I am so sorry" "No need to be sorry" stated a voice. There were gasps all around and the girls replied, "Kagome!" It was then that Ash noticed Tia's ghost. Vane could sense the inuyokai in both Madara and Kagome, Julian and Kyrian were beside themselves, the rest were just confused as to why everyone was staring. "So you are Kagome?" stated Talon. "Yes I am but I do not have time to discuss who I am. Where is Tia's body?" It was then that everyone noticed Tia's ghost, which was staring intently at Tabby. "Tia what are doing?" asked Kagome while raising an eyebrow. "I am seeing if I could possess Tabby and get her to do voodoo" "Tia get back in your body" said Kagome while shaking her head. Tia obliged and stuck out her tongue. "How come I didn't sense her?" asked Ash. "I placed a barrier around her so that no more idiots could try and her" stated Kagome as she laid the woman she had down. "Hey, that's Cheri and Nick. What happened?" asked Talon. "She was dead and he was going to commit suicide. I thought it best to render him unconscious, while I brought back what I assume to be his mother" stated Kagome. At this she looked around the group and spotted Kyrian and Julian staring at her. "Nice to see you again" was Kagome's reply as she continued to survey the group. "Very interesting acquaintances you girls have" Kagome continued as her eyes went up and spotted the "Welcome Kagome and Kagome's Husband" banner. "I must say I have never had a welcome party quite like this before. No wait I have. Oh and his name is Madara" she said as she looked toward him. It was then that their clones had arrived with their luggage and the car. "There are two of you" exclaimed Amanda. "Oh right" Madara and Kagome both released their clones and they disappeared. "We couldn't leave our luggage at the airport" stated Kagome to the astonished and confused group.
"What are you?" asked Vane. "Don't ask it like that" said Bride as she stood up next to him. "I am me the last time I checked" said Kagome as she sat down on the couch. By this time they had erased Nick and his mother's memory of the night. "Just know the way that I resurrected her can only be done once. If she dies again I can't save her that way" stated Kagome. "So, how's it going?" asked Kagome looking at her friends. "You seem calm about this" stated Ash. "I have been thrust into predicaments outside of my control before" said Kagome. "That's an understatement" mumbled Madara. At that moment figures in balls of light appeared. "Right on time" stated Kagome. "I see you have found the next location of where your destiny will lead you" said a voice in the light. Kagome and Madara were shaking their heads. "Ne, Ama-chan, Midi-san you want to stop with the light show" stated Kagome. "Fine, spoil our fun why don't you" stated Ama-chan. Amaretsu looked to Ash and said, "We should all convene at Sanctuary. This includes Savitar and Stryker" and with that they disappeared.
"What was that all about" asked Tabby. "That would be Amaretsu and Midiriko. They'll explain everything at wherever this Sanctuary place is" stated Kagome. "We need to create more clones and have them bring our stuff to the ranch" and with that they created clones and Kagome gave them instructions. They then headed to Sanctuary. Everyone was studying her once they arrived. "You know, you would think they would have manners" she whispered to Madara feeling very uncomfortable being under scrutiny. At that moment she felt familiar auras as five figures entered, "Koga, Ayame, Ginta, Hakkaku. What are you doing here?" questioned Kagome. Everyone in Sanctuary was watching the interaction. "Sis" exclaimed the group minus the one that Kagome had yet to greet. "Ice prick sent us to aid you at the ranch" said Koga. "He isn't an ice prick, he's is just simply misunderstood" said Kagome. At this time she noticed the other person that didn't have their soul. "Ephiny" said Kagome. "Kagome, it is nice to see you again" said Ephiny looking rather nervous. "All right, I know you all have questions as to why you are gathered here" stated Ama-chan. "We are here to explain Kagome's story to you all," said Midi-san. With that everyone was transported to a different realm. "We are here to observe only" said Ama-chan. "You know I think you guys are becoming very creative with how you tell my story" said Kagome as she watched her life unfold. "I always heard the story in words, but to see it is another thing entirely. She really has been through a lot and she isn't even finished. If we defeat him again in this town, there is still three more of his souls out there" said Madara as the scenes quit playing. Kagome, Ama-chan, and Midi-san were having tea in the corner oblivious to their onlookers. Kagome glanced to her side. "Oh, the movie's done" she said as she bounded over to Madara.
"And I thought my life was difficult" stated Selena. "All those times she was there for us, she pretty much did it alone" stated Tabby. All the girls nodded, at that Amanda went up to Kagome and grabbed her hand "We are going to shopping tomorrow and don't try to get out of it" "Okay, if you say so" said Kagome very confused.
"That's why you, Kyrian, and Ephiny were staring at her. You knew her" said Grace as she went to her husband. "Yeah, we were there at one of her battles" stated Kyrian. "Why did we need to know this information" asked Stryker. "That's easy. Stay out of her way" said Ama-chan. "She doesn't take kindly to those who harm what she considers hers. By the looks of things I would say that your victim list just got shorter if you know what is good for you" said Midiriko. "If you paid attention at all she values family and friends" said Madara. At this time everyone was looking towards the conversation. "So she's a powerful human" said Stryker. Of course, Amaretsu and Midiriko hadn't informed anyone of her titles.
"Just a human. I will have you know that she is no mere human. She is the Shikon no Miko, Goddess of Time, and Princess of the Western Lands. I am sure you know Toga Taisho and Sesshomaru Taisho. They would be here father and brother. I would watch what you say" snarled out Koga his eyes bleeding red. At this proclamation, everyone looked at Kagome. She was just shaking her head and pinching the bridge of her nose. Koga was very much close to losing his temper and letting his beast take control. Ayame was getting worried. Ginta and Hakkaku were doing everything to hold him back. "We leave this in your hands" said Amaretsu and Midiriko as they disappeared. "You moron who spoke, I would leave. Ginta, Hakkaku, Ayame, drag him outside" stated Kagome. "Of all the things I have to deal with. He chooses now to lose his cool"
The trio dragged Koga outside. "I must kill for the insolence" snarled out Koga. "He's in bloodlust" said Kagome. She then turned to Ayame, "I apologize for this" Ayame shook her head in understanding. In the Taisho hierarchy, the only orders Kagome had to listen to were Toga and Sesshomaru. Kagura was not considered the Alpha female. Kagome turned to Koga and stared straight at him. "Koga you need to calm down. I am only asking nicely once" said Kagome calmly. Koga at this point lost control and transformed. "Idiot" seethed out Kagome. She cast a barrier around her new friends. "Stay behind the barrier, while I deal with the idiot" "Why does she have to deal with him?" asked Fury. "The only two she has to listen to are her brother Sesshomaru and her father Toga. Everyone else has to listen to her. So in this situation she is the Alpha and she is pretty ticked" stated Ayame. At this time Kagome transformed into her true form and pinned Koga down hard. Submit Koga, I do not have time for this. In that moment Koga regained his senses and they both took humanoid form. "Sorry, Kags." "It wouldn't be the first time and I am pretty sure it isn't the last"
