A/N: Hello people!

The first chapter did very well, thank you for expressing your feelings. This is now a Kagome/Kaname story. Check the A/N at the bottom for more info.

I don't own Inuyasha or Vampire Knight.

I have no beta.

Enjoy.

"WHAT?!"

Inuyasha winced as his ears flattened against his skull. Kagome could definitely project her voice.

"Your scent had shifted, and you're pregnant."

Kagome didn't even take into account her nudity as she touched her stomach. "How can that happen? I was dead for a while. And we only coupled once!"

Inuyasha shrugged. "You said the Kami were messing with you and stuff. Maybe they decided to let you have a brat of your own," he suggested.

Kagome sighed and plopped back onto the bed. "Everything's all wrong! I lost my virginity to a vampire who killed my family and now I'm pregnant with his child. Why does all the horrible stuff happen to me?!"

Inuyasha looked away, keeping his eyes firmly planted on the doorway. "There are special tea's that you can make to get rid of it. If you want to, that is," he mumbled.

Kagome frowned, "I can't do that to a child Inuyasha. The baby didn't ask for it and I'm not going to take my anger at Rido out on the baby."

The hanyou sighed in relief. Killing children was never his thing. He should've known that Kagome wouldn't do it.

Kagome looked down at herself and grimaced. She was naked and covered in blood. Her body was killing her and she just wanted to roll over and sleep.

"Inuyasha, I'm still tired, and I don't feel like moving right now."

He stood and moved to her closet, pulling out one of her blankets, he covered her form with it and told her to rest. "We can deal with everything, when you wake up again."

She nodded briefly and dozed off, not wanting to face her problems at the moment.


Kagome frowned as she placed an ofuda on the well. She wasn't going back, so she wanted to make sure that no one could ever get through it.

After she awoke from two more days of slumber, her body had changed. He once mid back length hair, was now brushing against the back of her knees. She noticed that it was a lot silkier and glossier than before, to which she was happy about. Especially since she wouldn't be able to go and buy shampoo anymore. Once her stock, of everything she'd brought from the future ran out, she'd be done.

She had grown three inches, which made her really happy, because she always been on the small side. Now she was five feet five inches tall, nearly as tall as Inuyasha. She'd measured the inu and laughed when he was only five foot six. Her new growth made her equal with Miroku, and she was so glad, she was no longer the shortest out of the adults. In fact, she was taller than Sango now! Seriously a five foot, two inch eighteen year old wasn't someone you just respect easily. She looked like a midget.

Then there was the change in her body as a whole. She seemed more toned than before. She didn't know if it was something that was normal for vampires, but she was sure she had gone up a cup size. Then, there were her eyes. The color had seemed to brighten and become more intense.

She had noticed, when she woke up, that her senses were extremely sharper. She had caught the scent of the blood in the house and it had awoken her thirst. According to Inuyasha, her eyes had turned red and had gained a feral gleam. When he was unable to hold her down, due to her being much stronger than him, he offered his own blood, to which she had accepted willingly and had drank her fill.

The thought of drinking her best friends blood, didn't repulse her in the least. She had to compliment him. His blood had been delicious and she only stopped feeding because she didn't want to harm him. She refused to be a mindless beast who took what she wanted without a care about the others around her.

Overall, she liked being a vampire. She no longer felt like a hinderance to her friends. Now, she and the power to defend herself. Now, she could contribute more, without having the others constantly worrying about her safety in battle. Now, she could protect them and not have to stay behind to watch the others fight. She'd be right there with them, facing the danger head on.

She sighed as Inuyasha took her hand. He was being supportive through it all. He was truly happy that she was still live and had told her so. He offered to teach her how to hunt and to help her child when he was born.

Kagome had a feeling it was a boy. Something just told her, male, so she had already begun thinking of names for him. She didn't know how long vampire pregnancies were, and she'd prefer to get it out of the way now. Worrying about it later, would just annoy her, and she'd be angry at herself for putting it off for so long. So, she was resolved to find a name soon.

"You'll be fine Kagome," her best friend reassured her with a calm smile.

She heaved a sigh, "I sure hope so."

When they entered Kaede's hut, everyone bombarded them with questions. Why were they so late in coming back? What had happened? Why did Inuyasha bring Kagome's things from the future to her own hut? Why did Kagome look different?

Both sat down and explained the events that had occurred in the past five days.

The expressions on her friends faces went from calm and contemplative to downright pissed. Miroku, though he was a pervert, didn't condone pushing yourself on anyone, nor using your powers to make them go along with what you wanted. Sango had punched to wall and left a dent. Shippo was sad for her, but happy that he was getting a brother soon. Kaede offered to help her with training her reiki, saying that it was about time she learned. Kirara displayed her intelligence by curling up on Kagome's lap and purring away.

Kagome had gotten emotional and thanked her friends for being so supportive of her. They had a group hug then, which Inuyasha wasn't too thrilled about, but he didn't say anything. He just glared at them all for dragging him into such a thing.

"Well Kagome, I think ye should start your training now. The sooner the better. Then, maybe ye can defeat Naruko sooner. Preferably before the babe arrives."

Kagome stood and followed Kaede outside, waving to her friends before leaving.

Inuyasha sighed when the two left. "She's trying to put up a brave front. But I can see how sad she is."

Sango nodded, "I'll see if there's anything she didn't tell us later. If there's something more that can hurt her in any way, I'll tell you three. If it isn't relevant, then we'll just let the situation go and support her the best we can."

"You're such a good friend Sango."

Miroku had somehow slipped behind her while she was talking and decided to alleviate some of the tension in the room.

Sango's hand connected with his face and he was knocked over.

"Pervert!"


Kagome blossomed under Kaede's tutelage. She felt herself retaining information much better than before. She was doing so well, that when she pulled out the Algebra book she had brought with her, trying to make sure she still got the education she needed, she had understood the words! Something she had previously presumed was Gibberish, actually made sense! The discovery was magnificent and Kagome couldn't reign her excitement in. Being a vampire wouldn't be all that bad. She got to be smart without a problem, which was definitely a good thing.

Soon, Kagome had successfully read and understood every book she had brought with her. She was overjoyed at being able to claim intelligence now. The kind that a professor or a scientist would have. She felt Einstein. Victorious!

The hunt for the jewel shards went by a lot smoother. She could sense the shards from further distances and actually participated in the collecting of the pink fragments. They were able to travel longer because she could keep up and could cover more ground now that she was a vampire. Kagome was ecstatic. Inuyasha stopped whining about 'slow humans'. Sango and Miroku were grateful for the reprieve from their honyou friend's running mouth and Shippo and Kirara were just happy that they were all together.

A month after the catastrophe, Kagome began showing. She hadn't really noticed until she went to put a shirt on, and realized that her stomach was larger than it should have been. It was revealed then. She had a large bump protruding from the center of her being. One that illustrated what a woman would looked like at the end of her first trimester. If the bump kept growing at the rate Kagome calculated, she should only be pregnant for two more months. One third the time of a human birth cycle. A unimester. It wasn't a real word, but Kagome didn't care. She made it up, therefore it counted.

They had been running for a good part of the day without rest, trying to gain a good amount of ground before seeking repose. Everything had gone smoothly, until Inuyasha uttered a few expletives and jerked to a stop instantly.

Inuyasha was on high alert. His fuzzy ears were twitching atop his head as a low growl began to build in his chest. His hand moved, grabbing the Tetsusaiga's hilt in agitation. His posture was stiff and he looked ready to cleave someone in half with his legendary sword.

It took only seconds after Inuyasha's display, befor the focus of his ire appeared before them. Pristine white kimono. Flowing silk hakama that billowed out, ballooning toward the ankle. Black boot covered feet. A dark cuirass with lotus petal faulds. Attached at the top was a spiked pauldron that covered the left shoulder. The right shoulder was occupied by a silver mokomoko, that curled around the arm. A regal face framed by silver hair. Magenta stripes on either cheek and a violet crescent moon adorning the figures noble brow. Golden eyes that seemed to glow in an eerie light. In all truth, he was perfection personified. Living up to his fearful name quite well.

"What do you want you bastard?!" the hanyou shouted in annoyance.

Sesshomaru, Lord of the Western Lands, quirked a brow at his younger brothers language. He chose not to answer, opting for riling the half breed up even more. Watching the fool lose control of himself and go off without any thought to what he was saying was quite entertaining.

Kagome stepped forward and placed a calming hand on her friends shoulder. "Stay where you are Inuyasha. He hasn't attacked yet and you don't want to charge blindly, like you always do. Always make sure your opponent makes the first move. It gives you a better chance at coming up with a plan, otherwise, you attack and then he has more time to decided what to do to you," she informed the red clad hanyou.

He frowned, but straightened slightly, making her gape. He actually listened. She checked the sky, to see if it was falling. When she confirmed that everything was real, she turned her attention to her friend. Miracles did happen!

He was glaring at her. "I can take advice you know," he quipped.

She flushed slightly, "Sorry."

When they settled their little staring contest, they faced the Daiyoukai in front of them.

Kagome decided to take the diplomatic route and clasped her hands in front of her stomach. "What can we do for you Sesshomaru-sama?" she asked respectfully, hoping that everything could be taken care of without violence.

The Daiyoukai's burning gaze was fixated on her immediately. She saw a brief spark of emotion light those citrine orbs up, before it was snuffed out by the normal coldness. He regarded her silently, not answering her question, as if he expected her to know the answer.

Kagome took a deep breath in order to calm herself and prepare herself for aggravation that was sure to come, when she smelled it. Her body became still as stone as her eyes locked onto the bundle in the Inu Lords arms. The orange and white checkered bundle was bleeding, profusely. Briefly, Kagome realized that it was Rin, but the scent of human blood had permeated the air and she felt her fangs descend. She hadn't completely mastered her control yet and being so close to a bleeding human, wasn't helping he resolve.

Inuyasha glanced at her when she gave a small gasp and growled. Her eyes were glowing red. He could smell the blood in the air and he knew that she wouldn't be able to control herself if another blood source didn't show itself immediately.

Kagome was staring ahead. Her fangs were throbbing and she wanted to sink them into the cause of her sudden lust. Yet, she hadn't moved from her place because she knew that it was Rin, and she didn't want to hurt the sweet little girl.

A tanned arm entered her line of vision and someone turned her body away from the Daiyoukai. Her head refused to coƶperate though and tried to stay focused on the blood, even as her body was nearly turned all the way around. She felt like an owl.

"Kagome! Kagome!" a voice called out.

The arm disappeared, then reappeared, blood dripping from it. Her attention switched to the better smelling blood and her mouth latched onto the injured forearm.

She licked the blood from the wound and trailed her mouth over the cloth of Inuyasha's firerat robe and placed her mouth to his neck. She wrapped her arms around his waist and picked him up, using her speed to get them away from everyone. She didn't like feeding in front of people.

Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Kirara immediately settled down, knowing that it'd be a few minutes before they returned.

Kagome had sank her teeth into Inuyasha's jugular. The sweet deliciousness of her friends blood washed over her tongue, satiating her hunger. Her mind cleared up and she was able to think coherently. She felt guilty for having to use Inuyasha to bring herself to a rational state of mind.

She pulled away after giving a last lick to the puncture wounds, watching as they healed over.

"I'm sorry Inuyasha," she mumbled.

"Keh!" the hanyou soffed. "You're still new at this. Besides, I don't mind all that much," he muttered, looking away to hide the blush creeping over his cheeks.

Kagome gave him a curious look, "Really?"

Inuyasha's ear flattened and he coughed into his fist. "It doesn't feel bad, I mean," he explained, still refusing to look her way.

"You like it?" she asked.

The hanyou's face flamed, but he nodded, which had her laughing. "Well Inuyasha, I suppose I'm not surprised that you like it rough."

The hanyou growled and stomped off in the direction of their friends and the bastard.

Kagome trailed along after him, snickering at his embarrassment. She was totally telling Sango and Miroku. It would be too great!

Sango and Miroku looked up as Inuyasha stomped into the clearing, completely ignoring his brother as he approached his friends and plopped down on the ground beside them. His laid back and sighed, the rush of losing so much blood and then moving right after catching up to him. His head was spinning and he could swear he heard children's laughter.

Miroku grinned lecherously and wiggled his eyebrows, "Kagome wore you out that fast?"

Something hard slammed into his head then and he lost consciousness.

Sango placed her Hiraikotsu on the ground and sighed, "Sorry Inuyasha. He'll never learn."

The hanyou waved her off and rolled over, placing his arms over his head as an attempt to block all other noise. He was asleep in seconds.

Kagome sauntered into the clearing a moment later, holding a hand to her mouth. She took into account Inuyasha and Miroku's unconscious states and laughed.

She then gave Sesshomaru her attention, "I apologise Sesshomaru-sama, I lost it a bit there. Now I'll ask once more, can I help you with anything?"

The Daiyoukai glared, "You've changed miko."

She nodded, "Somethings happened a while ago. I became this at the behest and desire of Kami-sama."

Sesshomaru considered her for a moment and 'hnned'. "Rin was captured by the filthy half breed spider and her injury will not heal, even though it has been a week. Her skin is pale and her blood will not stop no matter how many times I've dressed her wound. You are the only miko that will assist me, because you do not hold a grudge against this Sesshomaru for being a demon."

Kagome's eyes softened. He was asking for her help and complimenting her while trying to seem aloof and uninterested at the same time.

"Please bring her here Sesshomaru-sama. A stay close to me just incase. I'm still not used to controlling my bloodlust. This is all still fairly new to me."

The Daiyoukai didn't respond, he just approached her slowly and laid Rin on the ground, keeping a cautious on the miko. Kagome reached out and checked the bloodied kimono. Pulling the green obi away, she opened the kimono to reveal the little girls entire torso, wrapped in bandages. There was a large red spot on her stomach, telling Kagome that the wound was there. She unwound the bindings slightly, revealing the injury to her gaze.

Taking a deep breath through her mouth, she held herself. Moving her hands over the laceration, she focused her reiki into her palms and began knitting the skin together, while purifying all foreign particles and anything that could infect the girl. The gash closed quickly and Kagome sighed in relief when Rin's eyes opened.

"Sesshomaru-sama, Kagome-sama," the child smiled.

Kagome patted her head, "You're all better now sweetie."

Rin nodded, "Thank you."

"We'll need to give you a bath and a new kimono little miss."

Just at that moment, Sesshomaru's two headed dragon A-Un, landed behind the demon lord. Jaken tumbled off the large creature, carrying a bundle. "Sesshomaru-sama, I have purchased the kimono you requested!" the kappa yelled in a grating voice.

Kagome stood, "There's a hot spring a few miles southeast. Sesshomaru-sama, can you carry her for me?"

She didn't give him a chance to answer, because she had immediately gone over to Inuyasha and lifted him over her shoulder. Miroku, whom had awoken at some point during her healing session, tsked.

"Kagome, you shouldn't have to do that. Especially in your condition."

Kagome glared at the monk, "So I can't do anything because I'm pregnant?"

Miroku flushed and backed off, knowing to keep his mouth shut. Kagome was a very independent woman and he didn't want to risk her anger. He already had to deal with Sango's abuse(though it was his own fault), he didn't want to make his own life any harder.

Kagome sneered and took off in the direction she had smelt the hot springs, Sesshomaru right beside her. The others followed behind them quickly, not saying anything.

When they were a close enough, Kagome set Inuyasha down in the shade of a tree. Sesshomaru relinquished Rin to her care and she stalked off, giving Sango a look. The taijiya nodded and scooped Shippo into her arms, following her friend.

Kagome turned to fix the males with a cool look, "No fighting, arguing, insulting or pettiness or so help me you'll suffer."

With that, she left for the springs.


After everything was finished, Kagome approached Sesshomaru, asking to speak to him alone.

After they were a good distance where even Inuyasha wouldn't be able to hear them, they sat and conversed.

"What has happened to you miko? You have become a vampire, yet you do not smell of human."

Kagome sighed and began explaining everything to the demon lord. She was able to make out the minute wodening of his eyes. She told him how she was from the future and about the vampire who attacked her family. Her pregnancy and her new status didn't go over his head either. The fact that the Kami made her a pure vampire and allowed her to keep her miko powers wasn't something to overlook.

"We're trying to find Naraku now. The only jewel shards that are left, are Kohaku's, which is being protected by Kikyo and Koga, whom we have to meet up with. Then we have almost half and Naraku has the rest. I think we'd be able to finish Naraku off faster if we had more powerful allies with us. YOu want to kill Naraku for whatever reason, and we all want to kill him for various reasons, so I propose you join our group," she told him.

The revulsion in his eyes was plainly evident and she tsked.

"You do know that we run into Naraku more than you do right? And we always send him running or else he'd be dead right now. If you were with us, he'd have less of a chance to retreat," she said, hoping he'd take the offer.

Sesshomaru stared at the miko turned vampire. She was serious and had taken him away from the hanyou in order to talk strategy with him. She knew having Inuyasha around would just make it more difficult.

"I did just save your ward too. I didn't have to."

His eyes narrowed. Unlike others who would be demanding payment or fine kimono's, she just wanted him present for when they faced the spider. She wasn't asking for anything egregious, or that he'd be opposed to. And it was true, that the little group of misfits encountered the foul creature too many times to count.

"Very well miko. This Sesshomaru will accompany you," he agreed.

She beamed and stood quickly, "Good! Well, let's get back, and I'll tell everyone what's going on."

She was gone then, using her advanced speed. He followed with his own speed.

When they returned to the camp, he situated himself on the ground in the shade of a tree, watching as the miko informed her comrades of the agreement. Inuyasha, surprisingly didn't seem to mind. He kept quiet the entire time and didn't raise questions of loyalty or comments of anger toward the Daiyoukai.

Kagome smiled as she rubbed her growing belly. She could only hope that they'd destroy the enemy before she gave birth.

A/N: So the first chapter went pretty well. I was seriously shocked.

I've decided to make this a Kagome/Kaname pairing. I think falling in love with the relative of the man who raped her would be an interesting path to travel. However, there will be a lot of Kagome and other pairings in between. Everybody and their brother will be interested and before she and Kaname get together, I'm going to have her being courted by many other males.

How was this chapter?

Please let me know.

Ja ne! :D
