Prologue
"Look Lord Sesshomaru, I see that Kagome has returned!" Jaken yelled with a slight happy tone, his grubby little claws holding his master's tail. He looked down at the woman dressed in traditional Miko clothing, in her arms herbs and at her side was Inuyasha. Jaken gave them a impish smile, when really he wanted nothing less then the strike the fool half-breed down. He still held a hatred towards the male, but couldn't figure out why.
Sesshomaru made a small sound to show he knew. The breeze carried the woman's scent to his nose and his eyes narrowed as he fought to glance down at her. His body was positioned in a crouching manner as he flew through the air, his destination for the time unknown to him. Then as his battle was proving victorious, her song-like voice yelled up at him.
"Big brother!" Kagome had called forcing him to shoot a glare in her direction. A small human-like growl escaped him and his delicate lips turned down into a very clear frown. 'How dare she act familiar with me.' He thought angrily. He watched as Inuyasha's face fell, but the expression that fell upon his face was indeed worth her comment. Even if he felt she had no right to call him 'big brother'. With a quick snort he adverted his eyes and continued on his way.
"How dare she show such disrespect! We must reprimand her for such behavior!" Jaken screeched.
"Shut your mouth or I'll kill you.." Sesshomaru's smooth voice drawled out as he began to think about what lay before him. Sesshomaru decided on a patrol around his, now safe, territory. Now that Naraku was dead, the miko returned and Rin safe, the tall, perfect man had little to worry about. For once there wasn't a dark aura darkening his lands, scaring those who lived under his rule or trying to kill those he held close in his pack. truly, finally he could get a location found for his castle and find a proper youkai female to produce him an heir. Youkai being the operative word there, but he felt none would ever prove worthy of his seed. Or so he thought.. As the Gods had something else planned for him.. And a special young Miko.
