Prologue-

"My Lord, congratulations, my lady has now bore you a daughter," the midwife said as she came out of the birthing room to see her Lord, a large black inu youkai, pacing back and forth. He was built tall standing at about seven foot, with long blackish blue hair that was tied back in a low tail at the base of his neck. His eyes always startled her, for though they were a cold grey if you stared into them long enough you could see little flashes of color, like that of a storm. He nodded to the midwife before walking into the room where his life-mate High Priestess Chouko was resting with the newest edition to their family.

"My Lord, may I present you with your daughter," he heard the melodious voice of his mate say as she handed him their child. He cradled her, not believing how small she was, even smaller than when Ichiro had been born. He knew his son would be disappointed that he wasn't here for the birth of his sibling, but patrols needed to be done and Ichiro's grooming was almost complete.

"She's beautiful my mate. Her name shall be Kagome. This Takehiko is pleased," Takehiko pronounced before settling down next to his mate and kissed her on the temple. Chouko rested her head on her lover's shoulder gazing down at the life that she just gave birth to. She was perfect in her eyes, and though she was another full breed of black inu youkai she felt priestess powers running in her veins. She would be a powerful spit fire to deal with, of that Chouko was certain of.

~*~In the West*~*

Akiko was walking in her gardens that her mate had allowed her to put in. She was content as she held her son in her arms. Sesshomaru, she couldn't detest the name more, but she wasn't about to argue with Katsuo. She was happy even though that this was arranged and neither of them loved each other they were friendly though. "Mom," her century year old pup said tapping her arm.

"Yes my sweet, Sessho," asked Akiko smiling down at him, she couldn't help but laugh when he pointed to the ground, signalling he was ready to be release from the hug she had him in. Today was her one day to spend with her son without studies interrupting, she sat under a Sakura tree that was one of her favorites and watched as her son started animatedly talking to her about what he knew.

Saddened she knew that soon he would grow stronger and he wouldn't want to spend with her that much anymore.

"My lady," one of her handmaidens came and bowed down to her. "We have received word that you're to travel home as your father was killed in battle. Our Lord said that you are to go immediately and he and Prince Sesshomaru will follow in two sun rises. Hearing this news Akiko bid her son goodbye and rushed to see her family, forming an orb light and dashing off.

~*~*Up North~*~*

"My Lord, I came across a group of bandits this time around on my patrol. They were easily dispatched of and taken care of," Ichiro said kneeling before his father. He was now fifteen centuries old and at the age where his father took control of the Northern lands bringing the House of the Eternal Night to power. Ichiro took after his father in look, long blackish blue hair, cold calculating grey eyes that felt as if they could create coldness in one's soul. He was shorter than his father standing only at six foot four inches, but was lean and muscular.

"Rise my son, you did well." Takehiko stated. As soon as Ichiro rose he felt something tackling his leg. Looking down he smiled as he saw his sister attached to his leg. She had the same grey eyes as him and their father, but hers were warm and inviting, as if sending one on a journey of safety. Her hair came from a recessive gene they believe though, for it was pure white with black underlying it, she had it twisted back into a braid interweaving the two colors.

"Kagome come back here! We've not finished with your lesson," he heard his mother exclaim as she came around the corner. She stopped when she saw her son. "Welcome home dearest Ichiro, I hope all went well?" Ichiro nodded his head to her before there was a large crash heard at the castle walls. Takehiko started growling.

"Ichiro take Kagome and go to the temple your mother had trained at. Your mother and I will be there as soon as we can. Don't stop for anything just run! Chouko, my koi, lead them to the tunnel that will get them out of here quickly!"

Chouko bowed to her mate before grabbing her son's hand as he picked up his little sister. She led him quickly down corridors into one he'd never been to before. He'd been told it was off limits to everyone but his father and mother. "Oka-san, why are we going down here this is a forbidden corridor."

"Hush my son, it's only forbidden to keep its secrets from the outside world. Your father and I wanted to keep this place safe guarded in case something like this happened. Now hurry along," she replied ushering him into a small room. She picked up a two provisionary packs that were ready to go and told her son to put them on while she held her daughter. "My sweet little angel, you're still so young, but you will be brave and you will have great importance. Your brother is still young but old enough to protect you. Goodbye my darling." She placed a kiss upon her forehead giving her a second symbol. It wove into her star marking symbolizing her as an heir to the North, entangled with the star was a pure white bolt of lightning. This signified that her daughter was her heir and now contained most of her power.

She handed her daughter back to her son and walked over to the far wall. "When you leave here I want you to run as fast as you can and whatever you do, don't look back. When you reach the monastery they will ask who sent you, tell them that it was Chouko and Takehiko, Lord and Lady of the North and that Chouko sends her regards to all the priests and priestesses. They should allow you entry easily now go!" With that the wall sprung open and Ichiro dashed off into the night doing exactly as his mother said.

After a while he was amazed that his sister hadn't made any words, when he glanced down at her he saw her eyes were closed tightly. He smiled and thought 'Sleep well little sister for nothing we know is going to be the same ever again.'
