Chapter 2
Kagome walked left the camp and headed towards the springs she saw earlier. As she was walking she looked towards the skies as she let her tears fall. Kagome felt someone following her. Kagome took a deep breath and wiped away the tears and was ready to face her stalker. Kagome turned to where she felt the presence came. That was when a random demon came out and charged at her. Kagome summoned her powers and defeated the demon with ease.
"You may come out from the shadows Sesshoumaru." Kagome looked towards Sesshoumaru's direction.
"Your powers are different from when you battle with your friends." Sesshoumaru said as he walked towards Kagome.
"Please keep this from the others. I want to master my powers before I tell the others. I rather not hear from Inuyasha how Kikyou would do it better." Kagome said as she looked into Sesshoumaru's eyes.
"There is no reason for me to tell the others. I can help you with your powers if you wish for some assistance. Also, you have already exceeded the human clay. She is of the land of the dead roaming for peace therefore have no use to further her power. When her collectors are close I can sense your power has already beaten her ten folds over." Sesshoumaru said.
"Thank you." Kagome smiled. "I also wanted to ask if you can help me with something. There is a mark that appears when I use my powers but fades when quickly right after." Kagome pointed to her forehead.
"Markings?" Sesshoumaru watched Kagome as she used her powers. She shot a blue bolt of light at a tree. "Hmm. I see you have the marking of the House of the Moon." Sesshoumaru placed his finger over Kagome's mark. "I shall release the bind you have on it. I am curious as to why a human would have our mark." Sesshoumaru eyes turned red. "Release."
Kagome body was engulfed in a bright light. Sesshoumaru turned away from Kagome and then looked at her when the light disappeared. Kagome's body was covered in blue markings and her eyes were now golden like Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru head felt fuzzy and his vision became blurry. Kagome caught Sesshoumaru before he could hit the ground. Kagome let Sesshoumaru rest under the tree as she stood guard.
Kagome noticed that Sesshoumaru was coming to. "I have missed you Koi." Kagome gave Sesshoumaru a peck on the cheek.
"I have missed you too Koi. I am puzzled by why I have forgotten you." Sesshoumaru got up and held Kagome in his arms.
"Do you not remember, your father sealed our memories and changed me into a baby then placed me in the bone eaters well." Kagome smiled and snuggled into his chest. "Being the only child for the Kingdom of the North. I was a target by many who wanted the throne. My uncle murdered my father and mother in cold blood to get the throne." Kagome said sadly.
"I do remember him. He always had an eye for you and tried to take you on the same night he murdered your family." Sesshoumaru growled as he held Kagome closer.
"Koi relax, he is not here and he thinks I am dead since I have not been home since then." Kagome tried to loosen herself from Sesshoumaru's iron grip. "Still as possessive as always." Kagome giggled.
"I protect my mate. It has been so long since we were together like this. I will keep you close. Since you and I remember the past, how do you feel about my little brother?" Sesshoumaru looked down at Kagome.
"It's as though all the pain and sadness washed away. Now it's replace by all the love I have for you Koi. I see Inuyasha as nothing more than a little brother or good friend. Koi my heart will only beat for you always. Besides your brother won't need to choose anymore since I am no longer in love with him so he can choose Kikyou." Kagome smiled and grabbed Sesshoumaru's hand. "Let us return to the camp. I am hungry!" Kagome made her marks fade completely out.
"I wish you would keep them out. You look very lovely with my markings Koi. I like that it shows you are mine." Sesshoumaru smirked.
"When the time is right I will show them but for now let's keep this a secret." Kagome smiled.
"Does that mean then I cannot hold you as I have done so in the past?" Sesshoumaru paused and looked at Kagome.
"We have to do it when we are not with everyone but every night I promise that we will do whatever you want since I am the one who asked to keep this a secret." Kagome reassured Sesshoumaru. Kagome and Sesshoumaru paused and listened as Jaken started yelling.
