Summary: What happens when Kagome gets bashed on the head while leaving from baby sitting Rin? Who did it? Why does she suddenly feel like a part of her life, her memories, and her soul are missing?
Kagomes Pov
I woke up to darkness and a dry throat. Moving my hands I found that I had been bound by rope. Gritting my teeth I sat up right as a light came on and the aura of a powerful demon approaching.
"Well I see that you're still as strong as ever my dear. I honestly expertly you to be still asleep after losing so much blood. But then your miko powers must have helped heal you while in your time of need."
Looking up at the demon in from of me, I had to gasped, it was like I was looking at a replica of an older Sesshoumaru. "Not to be rude but who are you? Why do you look like an older version of Sesshoumaru? Where am I? Why was I bleeding and how do you know about my miko powers? Why am I tied up and as beautiful as this kimono is why am I wearing and where are my cloths?" I asked lastly as I finally got a good look at what I was wearing. My black t shirt with skulls and black skinny jeans had been replaced with a beautiful violet purple and blue kimono with while orchids on the tips of the sleeves and as I looked at he bottom what appeared also on hem at the ends.
"My oh my you haven't changed at all. Still as questioning as you were before. I will answer your questions but first let me get this rope off you and explain why the rope was there in the first place. To explain this ill have to tell you about the blood as well. The blood is there because you ere hit with a brick by my younger son InuYasha. He wasn't paying attention as to where he was tossing it and you were where it ended up landing. As for the ropes I had to tie you down, it seems even while unconscious you will put up a fight. Does that help a little?" he asked as the last of the rope fell from her wrist and legs.
"Much better thanks, but who are you? You still haven't answered any of the other questions."
"Patience little one, in due time I will explain and answer each of your questions." He said as he walked away to a corner of the room and put up the rope.
"Now to start I am Tashio Toga, father to Sesshoumaru Tashio, and InuYasha Tashio as well as your father in-law. You are in my home, which is literally behind the home that Sesshoumaru currently lives in. I know about your miko powers because dear girl I am the one who helped you train yourself to wield them as well as a sword, bow and arrow, and among many others. As for the Kimono it is only one of the many that were maid for you before. Of course back then you were much younger and had yet to grow into some of them, much like the one you are wearing at the moment. A perfect fit if I don't say so myself."
Of course this all answered all but the question of how he knew me and why he keeps referring to a past me as if I'm much older than I am.
As if reading her mind, Toga smirked as his lips curled into a wide toothy grin. "Dear you may or may not believe me but you are well over 258 years old, mated or married in human terms with two pups. The brother and sister you baby sit, Rin and Shippo they are both yours. Have you never wondered why they feel so close to you?" Toga grinned widen as a scent floated by his nose. A scent he knew well and knew that soon he would be once more graced with grandkids!
"You cant honestly expect me to belie-" I started to say right as I felt a searing pain on my shoulder and back. Then there was a flood of memories of a girl that looked like me but in no way possible could have been me.
First there was the memory of a child version of myself and Sesshoumaru chasing each other around the palace garden and us taking a tumble into the pond. After surfacing we only looked at how the other looked absolutely silly and laughed and began the game all over and again only wet and now trailing water everywhere inside.
Another of what must have been the effects of running around wet in the cold. There on a bed laid the child version of myself clearly sick laying on what appeared the child Sesshoumaru. While she sleep he'd kissed her forehead and rubbed her hair as he as well fell asleep.
Then to another where both were older, somewhere in their early teens. The teen Sesshoumaru could be seen sitting on a tree watching clearly annoyed as the girl was being flirted with by what appeared to be a wolf demon, namely Koga. Soon the scene moved to her running from the room crying and soon in the arms of once again Sesshoumaru. She eventually calmed down and fell asleep and he had taken her to her room, once again kissing her forehead.
The next she seemed to be even older as well as sadder as she was walked down an aisle to be married to a purple robed prince that was also a monk. He looked just as sad as she did as he stared out into the crowed at a woman in the back that had tears streaming down her face. Just as words were exchanged she turned to Sesshoumaru and he kissed her forehead. The girl screamed and slammed her lips to his. Then grabbed the hand of the monk prince and the hand of the woman that turned out to be a slayer and brought their hands together.
In the next the scene was very different her rebellion had sparked a flaming fire that turned into a war of nations. Bodies littered the grounds, human and demon alike. In the middle of it all children were left parentless and with out shelter or homes and little to no food. The girl seemed to blame herself and then something seemed to snap inside herself. She and Sesshoumaru had gotten to start what they had wanted all along, a family and to be mated, but at the expense of so many lives being lost. In what appeared as a blinding light, people stopped fighting and what nobody would ever understand peace had been brought with that light. This time at the cost of one girls happiness and that of her families memories herself.
The very last memory showed the girl disappearing into the night and reappearing far away with no recollection of who she was when she woke up hundreds of years later. Adopted into a family who owned a shrine and needed more help she was given the last name Higurashi to add to the name Kagome that was carved into the one thing she had on her other than a kimono, a bracelet and orchid flower hair clip.
By the time the last memory had come and gone tears were coming sown her face at a steady rate. Each memory had seemed to only be a snippet of another's life, but when she looked back in her own memories each and everything she could see as if each had only happen the day before. Each person there was now here. Miroku had been the monk that had been in love with Sango the slayer, Koga the player was ever more the flirt and so many others faces. But the ones that stuck out the most were those of Sesshoumaru and her children, Rin and Shippo.
It was as she got up that the burning in her shoulder was now reduced to a tingle that felt so much like the pull of a rope. Just as with the rope wanting to go the emotions want to go as well.
"All of this doesn't explain why I feel as if my body is over heating and my shoulder is burning intensely." I said in a very impatient and pained voice.
"That's because your now awake to the truth and so is your mate. Your beast is reacting to the fact it has not been with its mate. Now that's enough questions. I think its time you move along and see your family but first and foremost that mate of yours or you may over heat. I hope to see you soon. InuYasha will see you out and safely to Sesshoumaru's home. Goodbye my dear until next time" Toga said as she was lead from the house.
Back in my own room I needed to jump in the shower to try cooling my body temperature, but its seemed the colder the water the hotter I got, so I got out. Just as I was drying off the door opened to reveal Sesshoumaru, whose arms I was in and lips were on mine as he growled possessively "My Mate" and proceeded to reclaim what had been his for so long.
