AN: Thank you for all of the positive reviews that I have bee receiving for this story.

xXSexyBedHeadXx: It will honestly depend on where go with this story.(I have no idea how this story is going to end) What I do plan is keeping each of the story lines connected in someway. So if the readers want to read more stories that take place in this little universe then I will write more and still remain connected with each other. Eventually I plan on adding more characters and perhaps create some new ones as well.

Darknessdawns: In a way, the "REMASTERED VERSION" is very similar to the original story. I just made a few changes but it didn't really change the outcome of that particular story.

Hanako Yume: Thank you! I wanted Kagome to seem like your typical warrior who is fighting in some battle. Plus it makes the story that much more interesting.

L.M.T.O.P: Thank you! Yes this story is going to get a lot crazier(In a good way) as the story progress.

Enjoy

Chapter 2: Please forgive me Rin.

A week has passed since that night. A mere seven days and Rin hasn't woken up yet. Just seeing her younger cousin so close yet so far away began to eat away at Kagome's soul and what little sanity she has left. How could it be that Rin hasn't woken up yet? For both Sango and Kikyo they were only unconscious for half a day and Kagome was only unconscious for two days.

Just thinking about that day and all that Kagome experience made her entire body start to tremble. For Sango and Kikyo, they were surrounded by family the entire time while Kagome was completely alone when the pain took over and consumed her entire being. When Kagome finally woke up, she was back home at Higurashi Shrine with her family. Having no idea on how she got there in the first place she asked her cousin and they told them that a man with long black hair and beautiful chocolate eyes found her in the woods and immediately brought you here after realizing that she is one of the shrine maiden who lived on Higurashi Shrine.

After learning about the mysterious man, Kagome immediately realized who he was. A dear old friend that Kagome has yet to thank him. She couldn't blame herself for not saying anything because the truth of the matter is that what happened to them in the past and where they stand now, their old friendship and the love and the respect that they had for each other could never be the same again.

Because of this stupid war and everything that Kagome has lost, she could never forgive the Gods for what they did to her and her family. The day she became a Spiritual being was the same day she lost her best friend and just seeing the way he is and way he acts breaks her heart in more ways then one.

"Damn it all to hell" Kagome whispered softly to herself. Kagome began to cry for the first time since her fate has been sealed and with each of those tears that rolled down her face, a piece of her once strong heart was ripped away from her. Now that Rin is a part of this world that Kagome, unlike her sister and cousin tried to keep Rin away from it. She hated the fact that she didn't stop Sango from bringing Rin along with them that night. She hated the fact that she couldn't protect her little cousin from the horrors that made up this world.

Soon after arriving the Taisho Manor, Kagome and the rest of her family decided that it would be best if they parted ways from the alphas. After all they were still the girls enemy and even though Sesshomaru offered them his protection from the Alphas as well as the entire underworld known as Inferos, Kagome declined his offer and protection.

Now that Kagome and the girls were back in Higurashi Shrine, Kagome will be able to give her cousin the best medicine and protection that Kagome has to offer. After all, Kagome is a healer and she will do her best to keep Rin safe and alive. However looking into her cousin's peaceful face made Kagome cry even more. Regardless of what they do and how they train Rin, Rin will not be able to survive in this kind of world. Rin is too kind hearted to fight or to even kill anybody. Even if that person was her enemy, Rin would much rather die than lay a hand on her enemy.

"Please forgive me Rin" Kagome whispered softly as she placed her hand on top of Rin's hand. A pink light suddenly appeared, surrounding both of the girls hand as Kagome tried to heal her cousin once again. Kagome has the power to heal and yet she is unable to heal her own family.

Can the Gods truly be that cruel?

"How is she doing" Kagome turned her head around and saw her older twin sister entered the room that she was in with Rin. Kagome sighed softly before removing her hand and placed it on top of her lap. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't do anything that might just help bring back their sweet Rin.

"I don't know. She hasn't woken up yet" Kagome said softly before wiping away the tears that were still on her face. She hated crying in front of her sisters.

"I see" Kikyo said as she sat beside her younger sister. She placed her hand on Kagome's shoulder as she tried to give her sister some peace of mind. Seeing Kagome like this was truly heartbreaking. Especially since they consider Kagome as the leader of this small little group.

Kagome always had the answer for everything. She always knew what to do and what to say and she was one hell of a fighter. Even Kikyo was impressed on how tough her sister was after becoming a Spiritual being. Without Kagome by their side, who knows how long Kikyo and Sango would have lasted in this war.

If Kagome never became a Spiritual being when she did, Sango and Kikyo would mostly been dead by now, especially how tough the Alphas at Taisho Manor were. With Sesshomaru and that deadly aura of his, no Spiritual being can survive a battle with the legendary Sesshomaru Taisho.

Although, only one person has ever fought Sesshomaru and lived to tell about it and that person is...

"Kagome?" Kikyo whispered her sisters name, knowing very well what she is doing. Out of all of the four girls, Kagome is the one that prays the most.

"Yes Kikyo?" Kagome asked as she slowly opened her eyes.

"What's going to happen now?" Kikyo asked. Honestly Kagome had no idea what the future holds for them. With Rin gaining her unknown powers, the girls are going to do whatever it takes to train and prepare Rin for the battle that she is about to enter.

"We do what we always do. We fight and we train and the only way for us to prepare Rin for the inevitable is by doing what we've always done. No holding back whatsoever" Kagome said.

"You can't be serious Kagome. This I our cousin we are talking about. You know as well as I that we can't do this the hard way. We do that and she could end up dead within the first hour" Kikyo said. Kagome knew her sister was right but it was the only way for them to prepare Rin. Kagome walked over to the window and stared out into the night sky and the beautiful crescent moon that was just over the mountain.

"I know that Kikyo. Believe me I know that more than anything but this is something that we have to do in order for Rin to survive in this war. You know a well as I that if we don't do this, she could end up dead the moment she steps off of this shrine" Kagome said.

Kikyo sighed. She always hated when her sister was right.

"There is someplace where I need to be. If Rin wakes up, please don't hesitate to call me" Kagome said as she grabbed the long black hooded cape that was laying on top of the chair

"Where are you going?" Kikyo asked. She noticed Kagome wearing a pair short leather pants with matching corset and a pair of black combat boots.

"Do you really want to know?" Kagome said before wrapping the cape around her shoulder. once the cape was secured; she place the hood over her head

"Well I guess seeing you wear that, I really don't need an explanation" Kikyo said. Kagome quickly nodded her head. Her sister and her cousin had no business lurking into Kagome's personal life, what she did on her own was nobody's concern but her very own. What Kagome is about to do goes against the very nature of their world, but for Kagome this is personal and needs to be done in order for Rin to survive this ordeal.

The truth is that Rin is slowly dying and Kagome will do whatever it take to bring her cousin back. Even if she needs to speak with the devil himself then so be it.

"Exactly Kikyo. I'll be back before dawn. Call me if Rin shows any improvement" And with that being said Kagome disappeared into the night. Not even saying goodbye to Sango or at least grabbing her car. For what Kagome is about to do, she didn't need her car or her family's sympathy.

"Do we have any idea on what the Zetas are planning?" Sesshomaru asked as he stared into the eyes of his men. Nobody knew the true objective of what the Zetas have in mind for there beloved city of Tokyo. However seeing them appear out of nowhere and in large groups is proving to be one hell of a job.

Not only do the Alphas have to deal with the holy gals from Higurashi Shrine, now they have to deal with Zetas and whatever it is they have planned. For God sakes is it really so hard to defeat a bunch of tiny creature?

"We have no idea what they are planning or what they even want with us. The only thing we do know is that if we don't figure out a way to stop them now. This whole city will be filled with them by this time next year" Inuyasha said as he stood up from the chair he was sitting on.

Sesshomaru sighed deeply. There has to be a way to defeat these little bastards without having to get Inferos involved. Whoever created the Zetas knew each of the Alphas weaknesses and strength. In other word, whoever created the Zetas knows the Alphas very well.

Whoever that person is, Sesshomaru and the rest of the Alphas will have to take him down and eliminate him before it is too late. That person, whoever or whatever it is, is a threat to the underworld and quite possibly the entire world and if Sesshomaru doesn't find a way to stop it then this whole planet and everyone in it will be doomed.

What if he find some help? Not from the armies of the Inferos but from a different source. Someone much higher up.

"Shit... Do you smell that? I know that scent anywhere" Naraku said as he glared at the front door. Sesshomaru and rest of the boys knew the scent. The scent of the Spiritual being and just the person that Sesshomaru wanted to see.

"Inuyasha go see what your girlfriend wants before I kill her" Sesshomaru said while looking at his brother. After watching his brother leave the room, Sesshomaru knew that what he is planning on doing goes against the very nature of the world that they live in. However, he will do whatever it takes to save his beloved home. Both here in Tokyo and down below.

"Its show time boys" Sesshomaru said as he grabbed both of his weapons. Sesshomaru and rest of the Alphas headed straight for the War room. That's the room where the Alphas do all of the planning and strategizing that involves the war with both the Zetas and Spiritual being. It is also the room that Inuyasha will most likely bring Kagome in.

Once Inuyasha made it outside, he saw Kagome heading right towards him. Even though he had his sword with him, there was no way that Inuyasha could point his weapon at her. Not Kagome.

"Are you stupid? What the hell..." Inuyasha couldn't finished his question seeing as though Kagome held a small dagger up against his throat.

"Relax, I'm not here to fight. I only came here because I need to speak with your brother" Kagome said in a very hushed tone as she slowly pulled her dagger away from Inuyasha's throat and placed it back under her hooded cape.

"You do realize that my brother can and will kill you on the spot the moment he sees you" Inuyasha said while glaring at Kagome.

"I know but I need his help. He is the only person that I know that has the sort of power that I need" Kagome said. Inuyasha soon became worried after watching the facial expressions on Kagome's face changed from determination to sadness.

"Why? What is going on Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.

"My cousin Rin, she is dying and if Sesshomaru doesn't help me now I can lose her before day break" Kagome said and Inuyasha immediately sighed. he should have know that it had something to do with her family.

"You know I can't guarantee you that Sesshomaru will help you or not but I can help you in anyway I can" Inuyasha said. Kagome smiled as she sighed in relief. Inuyasha may be right, however it was a start and if Sesshomaru did decided to help her then maybe there is hope after all.

"Thank you Inuyasha" Kagome said as she tried to fight the urge to reach in front of her and hug the man. One day Kagome will thank him for everything else he has done in the past, however tonight isn't the night. First she needs to save Rin.

"Let's go Kagome" Inuyasha said as he grabbed Kagome's hand. After a few seconds, Kagome and Inuyasha arrived in the War room and Kagome immediately noticed Sesshomaru sitting at the head of the table, looking all pissed off. Kagome couldn't blame him though, she would have been pissed as well if any Alphas enter her territory.

"Its not everyday that I see a Spiritual being enter my home. I don't know if I should kill you or congratulate you on the spot" Sesshomaru said as he glared at Kagome.

"I understand and I willing to pay for the consequences in anyway I can" Kagome said as she bowed her head. Sesshomaru may be an Alpha however he and his brother were still of noble blood and even though she hated the man, she will still show him her respect.

"Don't worry you will. However, knowing you and that so call pride of yours, you wouldn't have come here unless you truly needed something. So speak now Kagome and please make sure that it won't waste my time" Sesshomaru said.

"My cousin Rin. She is dying and I need your help" Kagome said as she lifted up her head. She immediately noticed the shock look on Sesshomaru's face. However, the demon prince quickly hid it from Kagome.

"I see. Now tell me little angel, how do you expect to pay me if I do indeed decide to save your little cousin?" Sesshomaru asked.

"I offer myself as well as the rest of the Spiritual being our servitude. You have my word, we will not attack the Alphas from here on out"

"You do realize that pledging your servitude to us you will have to do whatever it is that we request from you and that includes your cousin Rin as well?" Sesshomaru asked. He immediately noticed the look on Kagome's face quickly change from worried to frightened.

"Yes I understand Sesshomaru" Kagome said quietly. She could have sworn she heard Inuyasha calling out her name just now. She had a feeling that he would be upset with all of this and she was right.

"Alright then I will save your cousin on one condition" Sesshomaru said and Kagome immediately smiled.

"Anything that you want Sesshomaru" Kagome said.

"The Zetas. You remember them right? The creatures that nearly killed your cousin" Sesshomaru asked. Kagome nodded her head.

"Well as you already know. The Alphas and the Zetas are at war with each other. For one year, You and your family will help us fight them off. If we win, then the war between the Alphas and the Spiritual beings will finally be over and we can move with our lives. I promise you that if we win the Spiritual being and the entire world of Inferos will no longer be enemies" Sesshomaru said.

Kagome couldn't believe what she just heard. Is Sesshomaru willing to do all that just so that they can defeat those small little creature. She couldn't help but wonder why Sesshomaru will go through such length.

"Why is defeating the Zetas so important to you?" Kagome couldn't help but ask.

With a serious look on his face he said "Because if we don't then Japan and quite possibly the rest of the world will be doomed. If we don't stop the Zetas now, then this time next year we will be experiencing the apocalypse".

"No. You're lying, that can't be true" Kagome said as her body began to tremble.

"Believe in whatever you want Kagome Higurashi but also remember that I am the only one that can bring back your cousin. Agree to help us and I will save your cousin. However if you don't agree to help us then I will have no choice but to allow your sweet cousin to remain the way she is. Which judging by your facial expression, Rin doesn't have much time left now does she?" Sesshomaru said. Kagome couldn't help but glare at the man in front of her.

"You bastard. How could you let a poor innocent girl die. if it weren't for you she would still be alive!" Kagome yelled. Sesshomaru eyes began to bleed red as she rushed over to Kagome side and slammed the poor girl up against the wall. While holding her by the neck, Sesshomaru lifted her off the ground. Kagome immediately tried her best to pull away from Sesshomaru's hand, however it was proving to be useless.

"If it weren't for me, Rin would be dead by now. After all I'm not the one who decided to bring a defenseless girl into the battlefield. Remember this Kagome, I saved her life that night. No one else did" Sesshomaru said as he finally let go of Kagome's neck.

As soon as Kagome landed on the floor, Inuyasha was by her side as he made sure that girl is indeed alright. After releasing a few coughs, Kagome was finally able to get back on her feet and face Sesshomaru. As she kept one of her hands on her neck, she knew that it would be impossible to the hide the bruising that will eventually start to appear around her neck.

"So tell me Kagome. Do we have a deal?" Sesshomaru asked as he continued to glare at Kagome. Suddenly Kagome felt her phone beginning to vibrate. Knowing exactly who the person is, Kagome pulled out her phone and immediately saw the text message from her sister.

Come home. Rin really needs your help.

Kagome immediately closed her eyes as a single tear began to roll down her cheek. Whatever Kagome is going to do, she has to do it now before it is too late for Rin.

"Alright. The girls and I will help you out in anyway we can, but please you have to help my cousin Rin" Kagome said as she finally opened her eyes and stared at the demon in front of her. Sesshomaru slowly walked over to Kagome and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry. Your cousin will be safe with me. I can promise you that" Sesshomaru said and Kagome immediately nodded her head. To afraid to even speak.

"Thank you Sesshomaru" Kagome whispered softly.

Sesshomaru nodded his head. "Go and bring Rin and the others here. There isn't much time left and we need to help her before the sun rises" Sesshomaru said before stepping away from Kagome. Kagome once again nodded her head before disappearing out of the room. Once any traces of her were gone, the boys began to voice their opinion about the whole situation.

"Are you out of your fucking mind!? Do you know what can happen if the Lords and the rest of underworld finds out that we are helping out a Spiritual being and that they are teaming up with us?" Naraku yelled as he slammed his hand up against the table that was in front of him.

"Remember your place Naraku! Don't think I haven't forgotten about the incident that happened a week ago" Sesshomaru said as his eyes bleed red once again. Naraku immediately bowed his head and asked for Sesshomaru his forgiveness.

"Do you really think this wise Sesshomaru. Remember the Spiritual being are our mortal enemies?" Miroku asked.

"Believe me I haven't forgotten about that. However we need the girls and their powers in order for us to defeat those bastards. As for the Lords of Inferos, let me handle them. once they learn about my plan I am sure that they will forgive us" Sesshomaru said.

"Understood" both Inuyasha and Miroku said in unison.

"Head back to the colonies for now Naraku. Later, you and I shall discuss about that little incident. Also I don't want you anywhere near the girls once they arrive" Sesshomaru said.

"As you wish my prince" Naraku said before disappearing into the night. Sesshomaru sighed. He realized that having Naraku around is proving to be rather a nuisance.

"As for you two, I need everything prepared for when the girls arrive" Sesshomaru said. Inuyasha and Miroku immediately left the room and after watching them leave, Sesshomaru immediately became worried.

Worried about Rin.

It still amazed him that after all this time, Rin hasn't left his thoughts and still haunts his dreams. Since that night he saved her life, the only thing Sesshomaru could think about is Rin and how beautiful and enchanting she was. He made a vowed to himself that eventually he would find the young girl again.

Thanks to Kagome, Sesshomaru realized that having the girl near him wouldn't be so hard. Especially since Kagome agreed to help him out with the war against the Zetas. Although he didn't like the situation that Rin is in and he began to wonder what her powers could possibly be and why it was taking such a huge toll on her body.

After leaving the room, Sesshomaru headed towards the weaponry. Their was only one sword that could bring back the dead and that sword is the only weapon that can save Rin.

The Tensaiga.

Once Kagome made back to the shrine, she heard both Sango and Kikyo screaming in Rin's room. Immediately Kagome froze in place as she thought about the worse. 'Don't tell me that I am too late' Kagome said to herself as she ran towards Rin's room.

By the time she got there, she saw Kikyo holding Rin in her arms while Sango was at the foot of the bead crying her eyes out. What she saw before her needed no explanation.

Kagome is too late, Rin is gone.

Sango slowly lifted her head up and saw Kagome standing by the door and soon she began to yell at the girl.

"Don't just stand there, do something! Bring Rin back" Sango yelled at her cousin as the tears began to pour down her face once again. Both of the girls began to cry hysterically. Finally after hearing her family cry and scream, Kagome finally got the courage to enter the room.

"Give her to me" Kagome said as she tried to held back the tears from falling. She needed to remain calm, there is still time to save Rin. After Kikyo handed Rin to Kagome, a tear fell down Kagome's face.

"Please forgive me Rin" Kagome whispered softly before placing a quick kiss on Rin's forehead. Her body was starting to get cold and that made Kagome that much more determined to hand Rin over to Sesshomaru just so that he can save her.

"Let's go ladies" Kagome said. Never taking her eyes away from Rin.

"Where are we going?" Kikyo asked as Sango finally became quiet.

"No time to explain. I'll explain later, just follow me" Kagome said. Knowing the girls were all connected with their powers, Kagome didn't want to explain to them that they were going to Taisho manor. If the girls wants to see their cousin alive then they will have no choice but to follow along with Kagome's plan.

Kagome only prayed that it was the right thing to do.

"Ready" Kagome asked.

Both girls nodded their head before all three of the girls teleported out of the room and followed Kagome to wherever she was taking them.

After arriving in front of Taisho Manor, both of the girls began to yell at Kagome. However Kagome didn't listen as she continued to walk towards the manor. The door was already open so Kagome didn't need to stop to open it. Once inside the manor, the girls saw the three Alpha males.

"Hurry we don't have much time?" Kagome whispered softly. Sesshomaru nodded his head as both Kikyo and Sango began to yell at Kagome.

"Kagome you can't be serious. What if he kills Rin instead" Sango said as she began to cry once again along side of Kikyo, who at this point couldn't hold it in any longer.

"He won't. We made a deal" Kagome said as she handed Rin over to Sesshomaru. Once again, Kagome saw the look of sadness in Sesshomaru eyes. The last time she saw him like this was right after saved Rin and realized what he had done.

"Follow me" Sesshomaru said and all three of the girls as well as the Alphas followed Sesshomaru. After entering the living room, he placed Rin's body on a makeshift bed beside the fireplace. After brushing away the hair strands that fell on her face, Sesshomaru finally stood up and took a step back.

He then pulled out the Tensaiga causing both Kikyo and Sango to scream, while Kagome remain calm. Only Kagome knew the true power about Tensaiga, which is why she came to Sesshomaru in the first place.

"Inuyasha, Miroku. Hold the girls back" Sesshomaru said. While Inuyasha held Kikyo and Miroku held Sango, Sesshomaru turned his head around and noticed Kagome staring right at him.

"Are you sure about this?" Sesshomaru asked and Kagome whispered a silent yes before closing her eyes. Sesshomaru turned his head and aimed the sword right at Rin. 'Please let this work' Sesshomaru whispered softly to himself.

Suddenly he saw the minions of the underworld appear all over Rin's body as they began to devour her soul. Sesshomaru couldn't help but smirk at the little minions. 'Got you' Sesshomaru said to himself before swinging his sword right at the minions, destroying each and every one of them.

Once the minions all disappeared, he kneeled beside Rin and held the girl up against his chest. While everybody remained still and watched to see if the Rin is in fact alive, they began to mentally prepare themselves for the inevitable.

Suddenly everybody heard a soft gasp coming right out of Rin's parted lips. While they all held their breath and watched, Rin slowly opened her eyes and stare into the eyes of the man that held her. By far, he is the most beautiful person she has ever seen and yet there was something strangely familiar about him.

"Oh my God, Rin!" Kagome yelled as she and the girls all gathered around Sesshomaru and Rin. Sesshomaru managed to free himself away from Rin and hand the girl over to her family. Right now, Rin is going to need her family. So for now, Sesshomaru doesn't mind giving Rin to her family.

"Soon though, you will be mine" Sesshomaru whispered to himself as he watch how happy the girls were that their sweet cousin Rin is alive and well.

"Where am I?" Rin asked as she couldn't help but to stare at everything that surrounded her and was confused to see tears on her cousins faces.

"We're in Taisho Manor Rin. Don't worry, you are safe now" Kagome said as she began to run her fingers through Rin's hair.

"What happen though, why are we hear?" Rin asked as she leaned against Kagome.

"Don't worry. I will explain to you later" Kagome said after giving the girl a big hug before both Sango and Kikyo gave Rin a hug as well. Having the family together again made all three of the girls happy once again as tears of joy were beginning to ran down their faces.

"Who is that?" Rin asked as she pointed at Sesshomaru. Kagome turned around and mouthed a thank you to Sesshomaru before answering Rin.

"His name is Sesshomaru Taisho. He is the man that helped us out today" Kagome said. Rin couldn't help but smile at Sesshomaru. Even though she had no idea on what it is going on, she still couldn't help but thank the man before her for whatever he has done.

"Thank you Sesshomaru. Thank you for everything" Rin said as she smiled at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru smiled as well and the was the first time that anybody in the room ever saw him smile.

"The pleasure is all mine Rin" Sesshomaru said as he walked over to Rin and kneeled before her. He then place a hand on top of her shoulder before adding "As a matter of fact, I should be thanking you".

"What for" Rin asked.

"Because for the first time I can finally see everything crystal clear" Sesshomaru said.
