I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA! BOO

A/N:: I wanted to explain something before you start reading, When Sesshomaru and Inuyasha's beast take over there eyes bleed red right? Well I wanted Kagome to be different, since she is a different breed of demon, so instead of bleeding red, she will bleed Black, Like I said Kagome is different, so this will be a defining factor -Bleeding black not red- Plus Black and Blue are awesome together (Just saying) So when you read the part her eyes bleed black I wanted you to already know why I did that, instead of asking me later ^.^ But anyway I'll stop blabbing and Let you read, so see you at the End ^.^


Sesshomaru clutched his Haori as the power pulsed thought him 'Mate? What mate?' Sesshomaru asked up did not get answer, Sesshomaru looked up to see the southern lord looking at him with his brow raised "I apologize but I must leave" Sesshomaru stood in a fluid movement and left. Sesshomaru made it outside and formed his orb; he shot across the sky to his palace, Sesshomaru touched down in Awe

'The garden, its healed' Sesshomaru walked over to the Sleeping Beauty 'who?' Sesshomaru knelt and touched the flower it was blooming bigger and better than he remembered it, the poison was not released it lived along with the garden, as the wind blew a smiled ran across Sesshomaru's face "Kagome is the one" Her scent was strong in the garden, As Sesshomaru scanned the area he could tell she was the only on that had been in her, she touched everything, the trees held her scent from where she touched them, a rabbit ran by that held her scent on his fur for where she pet it "Kagome is my mate" Sesshomaru said with a smile as he walked inside

As he made his way towards Kagomes room he was stopped by Amayah "Hello Sesshomaru-sama"

"Hn" Sesshomaru tried to pass but she got in the way "Why do you block my path?"

"Because Mi lord I am the one who healed the garden, I am your destined mate" She lied

"You are the one?" Sesshomaru knew she was lying her scent was nowhere near the garden it was filled with Kagomes scent

"Yes Mi lord, I went in there today, I was curious and boom the garden bloomed"

"Today you say?" Sesshomaru was furious this twit was trying to lie to him; he would not have it in his home

"Yes Mi lord"

"And what of the flower in the middle of the garden?" Sesshomaru asked with a smirk

"Why does that matter?" Amayah giggled but stopped as Sesshomaru grabbed her throat and lifted her into the air

"Because the flower in the middle is filled with poison, if you were to step in to it, it would have killed you, now you say you went in there yet here you stand"

"M-Mi Lord" Amayah gasped for air

"I will only give you once chance, lie again and it will be your last day in my home and on this earth, I will send you to the depths of hell for the demons there to feast on your body and soul" Sesshomaru squeezed Amayah neck nearly breaking it then tossed her against the wall "Be gone" Sesshomaru stepped over her body and made it way to Kagomes room

*Knock* *Knock*

Sesshomaru waited but heard no answer so he slid the door open seeing her room empty, Sesshomaru didn't understand so he stepped inside her scent was strong in the room, he could tell that she had recently been there. Sesshomaru looked around seeing everything neat and organized. He was about to leave when he heard Kagomes soft hums coming from the bathing room so he decided to wait. It only took a few minutes and Kagome was walking out in her black robe, brushing her hair with her fingers

"Oh" Kagome jumped "You scared me" Kagome giggled as Sesshomaru walked over to her saying nothing "Something wrong?" Kagome asked as he stopped in front of her

Sesshomaru said nothing as he leaned down and captured Kagome in a kiss, their first kiss, if as soft and cautious, Kagome stood frozen for a moment not sure What Sesshomaru was doing, once the kiss was broken Kagome smiled and asked "What was that?" With a smile

Sesshomaru smirked and leaned down for another kiss this time it was a little more rough, he traced Kagome lips for entrance she gladly let him, Kagome wrapped her arms around Sesshomaru as he wrapped his around her back, as time passes the kiss became more passionate, Sesshomaru backed Kagome up against her east wall, Kagome tighten her grip as Sesshomaru reached down behind her knees and pulled her up so that her legs could wrap around his hips, which she gladly did.

Kagome could feel Sesshomaru's member growing between them as her arousal increases, Kagome could feel her beast breaking its way out of the thin cage it was in. Kagome hated to but she needed to stop "Sesshomaru" Kagome broke the kiss and it didn't take much for Sesshomaru to see why, her eye began to bleed black, a sign that her beast was about to take over.

"I know" Sesshomaru leaned his head down at the crook of Kagome neck catching his breath as Kagome tired to do the same, After a few moments Sesshomaru let Kagome down "Come" Sesshomaru grabbed Kagome had and lead her to the garden

"What are we doing?" Kagome felt a little embarrassed walking around in nothing but a robe.

But Sesshomaru said nothing as he opened the door and pulled Kagome into the garden, he still didn't talk as he walked to the rock bench under a tall oak. Fireflies lit up the sky as they sat. "Kagome do you know what this place is?"

"Um a garden?" Kagome was confused and a little scared, Sesshomaru hid it for a reason 'Is he going to yell at me for coming in here?'

"When you first stepped in here, it was a barren waste land, everything was dead and rotting, the ground showed no life at all, but then you came across the Sleeping Beauty and healed the garden" Sesshomaru smiled

"I guess" it took a second but Kagome remember the name Sleeping Beauty, Sango told her it was Sesshomaru's flower, the one he gave to his intended

"This garden is a wonderful place" Sesshomaru smirked

"How so?" Kagome kicked her feet back and forth feeling the fresh grass between her toes

"This garden... you see when a demoness comes into the garden two things can happen, one, The garden rejects her and the sleeping beauty releases its poison and within seconds kills the imposter" Sesshomaru chuckled

"And?" Kagome was now getting scared

"Or the sleeping beauty will bloom and the garden will heal, it what we Inu's use to choose mates" Sesshomaru had a smiled that wouldn't wipe away "Kagome you came here tonight and healed the garden, the only way you can do that is if you were destined to be my Mate"

"So what you're saying is you don't have a choice in who you choose as a mate, unlike Yukio who can give the blue rose to anyone he wants?"

"Exactly, you were born to be my mate" Sesshomaru turned to Kagome "but if I had the choice like Yukio I would have chosen you, it seems the fates are in my favor" Sesshomaru chuckled

"Sesshomaru are you asking to court me?" Kagome giggled, Sesshomaru looked at Kagome with only a smirk on his face, Kagome got a little nervous when Sesshomaru didn't respond "I mean...Well... I.. hmm" Kagome was getting more nervous by the second until Sesshomaru laughed, Kagome jumped at the sound She had never heard Sesshomaru laugh like that, he had chuckled a few times in front of her but never laughed. Kagome blushed deep red as Sesshomaru continued to laugh "It's not funny" Kagome crossed her arms

"Actually... It is" Sesshomaru started to calm down "Kagome I just told you, you were born to be my mate, its obvious that I wish to court you"

"Nothing wrong with making sure that's what you want" Kagome huffed and looked the other way as Sesshomaru chuckled

"Kagome," Sesshomaru pulled Kagome face back to look at him "Would you allow this Sesshomaru to court you?"

"Hmm I don't know" Kagome giggled

"Kagome" Sesshomaru growled

"Of course silly" Kagome leaned over and kissed Sesshomaru on the cheek

"Hn" Kagome started to pull away but Sesshomaru quickly grabbed her chin and pulled her in for a kiss


The next day Sesshomaru found Kagome in the garden, she was sitting next to The sleeping Beauty, She had two rabbits in her lap, one all white and the other all black, they were sleeping as she hummed and pet them with one of her hands "Kagome"

"Yes" Kagome looked back with a smile

"I must leave but I shall return in a few hours" Sesshomaru knelt next to her

"More than likely I'll be here" Kagome nuzzled against Sesshomaru's neck

"Then I shall come find you when I return" Sesshomaru kissed Kagome quick but meaningful

"Bye" Kagome waved as Sesshomaru formed his cloud and shot off into the sky.


Sesshomaru flew for a while before coming upon a Youkia village, it was protected my a barrier so no human could enter, Sesshomaru watched as the villages shivered in fear as he passed them, Sesshomaru walked in to a small hut reeking of spiders

"And what do I owe this pleasure?" A demoness with long grey hair appeared smoking a long pipe, She had what looked like tribal markings on her arms and face, on her forehead was a half a spider web, starting at her hair-line, down to a point between her brows, She had swirls and symbols covering her arms

"I need a Kimono"

"Ahh is the great Sesshomaru courting? Demons only come to me when they need a courting gift"

"Will you make one?"

"How could I turn down the lord of the west?" The old demon stood "Hold out your hand"

"Hn" Sesshomaru knew of this demon she could make a protection Kimono in a matter of hours, she used the blood and hair from the man to intertwine in to the fabric.

"Lets see" The women scanned his hand then pushed his sleeve up to show his pale wrist "Here we go, this might pinch" And with that one of her legs shot of from behind her and stabbed into Sesshomaru's wrist, he could feel the light sting from where she penetrated his skin but he showed nothing in his expression "Now," The women turned and grabbed a clay bowl, the legs that took the blood hovered over the bowl, The old demon took the legs and poured some blood into the bowl "Now Sesshomaru, I head you use poison as a weapon right?"

"Hn" He responded

"Drip some poison into this bowl, don't worry about hurting the bowl" The women laughed "Your blood with keep the poison from melting the bowl" Sesshomaru took his right hand and placed it over the bowl

*Sizzle* Sizzle*

Sesshomaru placed ten drops of his poison into the bowl "There, anything else?"

"One Last thing" The demon chuckled; She reached up and plucked three hairs from Sesshomaru's head

'Ouch' He thought but did not show it

"All done, but before I forget how tall is the young women?" The old demon twisted the long strands into the bowl

Sesshomaru held up his hand to his shoulder "Her head reaches here"

"Ah, Come back just before sunset, it will be ready by then" The old demon floated in to a dark room

"Hn" Sesshomaru turned and exited, He walked back thought the village and out of the barrier "Now one last thing" Sesshomaru flew back into the air this time in his orb, he needed to travel a great distance but didn't have the time to casually fly on his cloud, Sesshomaru touched down in the familiar volcano, He looked around seeing nothing at first only the large skull in the middle where the old man lived, Sesshomaru walked over and went inside where he heard the slams of a hammer hitting metal "Totosai" Sesshomaru spoke in his clod voice

"Hmm" The old man stopped his work and looked towards the entrance of his home "AHHHH" Totosai started to run but Sesshomaru grabbed the back of his shirt "Don't kill me I have done nothing wrong!"

"This Sesshomaru does not wish to kill you; I have a job for you"

"Sorry I do have any openings for new work" Totosai scratched his head

"Find one"

"What do you need anyway, you have three swords already" Totosai huffed

"If you must know it is not for me" Sesshomaru dropped the old man

"Oh a girl?" Totosai had hearts popping out of his eyes and making kissy faces to Sesshomaru

*BAM*

A knot grew on Totosai head "Alright, what do you want sheesh"

"A sword"

"Alright" Totosai picked up a strange instrument "open your mouth" but Sesshomaru didn't move "I will make your weapon the same way I made your fathers, using her fang" Sesshomaru still didn't move "You stubborn child" Totosai hit Sesshomaru over the head but Sesshomaru just raised his brow "Damn, that worked with Inuyasha"

"Old man" Sesshomaru growled

"Just do it, your fang will grow back in half a day" Totosai huffed and scratched his chest

"Fine" Sesshomaru opened his mouth

"Wow your fangs are big" Totosai grabbed around Sesshomarus left fang, Sesshomaru couldn't help but smirk at the comment then

*POP*

"Ouch" Sesshomaru growled and Totosai looked over the fang "When will it be ready?"

"Who it is for?" Totosai chuckled

"Old man, you are working on This Sesshomaru's nerves"

"Well I don't know... it could take year, I forget a lot" Totosai leaned against his wall; Sesshomaru grabbed the man around the neck

"If I didn't need this weapon, I would squish you like the bug you are"

"Just a name and I will make it in two days"

"You have one" Sesshomaru growled

"The name" Totosai laughed

Sesshoamru dropped the old man and turned to leave, but before he went back out on to the volcano floor her turned and said "Kagome"

"Hehehe so are the rumors true?" Totosai laughed

"What Rumors?" Sesshomaru growled deep in his chest

"Kagome is now a demon" Totosai raised his dirty brows

"Where have you heard such things?"

"I heard them from the north" Myoga jumped out from Totosais shirt and on to Sesshomarus shoulder

"Flea get off of this Sesshomaru"

"O-Of course" Myoga jumped back to Totosai "Ahem, I was traveling here when I heard of news of a new demon that caught the attention of Yukio the Lord of the north, I like to keep up with the news you see, so I listened in," Myoga wiped the sweat from his tiny head "I heard that she was a beautiful demon, that smelled of fresh rain, lavender, and a touch of honey. I thought of Kagome because she had the same scent, but I knew Kagome was a human Miko, not a demon"

"Get to your point" Sesshomaru growled

"As I listened, I found out she had Raven, hair and bright blue eyes, and the unspeakable power she held deep within herself, it could bring the world to its knees" Myoga wiped again "Then he spoke her name, Kagome and where she lived, The village of Edo. I couldn't believe that they were talking of Kagome, so I went there myself, I caught sight of Kagome thought her window, and it was all true, Kagome was the demon they spoke of"

"Kagome was changed somehow, even she does not know how" Sesshomaru was bored of this conversation, he knew all of this already

"Makes me wonder" Myoga twitched his nose "Ah but this gift is for her? So she passed the test?"

"She survived the garden" Sesshomaru stuck his nose in the air

"Wonderful," Myoga clapped "Her power will be unmatched"

"What are you talking about?" Totosai scratched his butt

"Even as Kagome sat unmoving in her room, the waves of power that radiated from her was emince, The north spoke of the truth, Kagome has a great power within her she is unaware of, Sesshomaru you must train her, Teach her how to control the power, Right now she is as fragile as a young pup, ignorant to her power. If it is used before she is trained it could cause great destruction"

"Hn"

"Totosai you must complete the sword, so Kagome can bond with it"

"Well..." Totosai sighed "I'm tired"

"Old Man" Sesshomaru growled

"Ugh, come back in the morning"

Myoga jumped on Sesshomaru shoulder "Don't worry Sesshomaru-sama, I will make sure he finishes it"

"Hn" Sesshomaru turned and left the skull, He could see it was near sunset, so he decided to return to the old Spider for the Kimono. He formed his Orb and shot back into the sky, within a few minutes Sesshomaru was back to the Yokia village walking casually towards the spiders hut, he stepped in to see the spider smoking her pipe with a smirk on her face

"Good timing, I just finished" The old women tossed Sesshomaru a neatly folded Kimono "This shall protect her"

"Hn" Sesshomaru tossed a bag full of coins at her feet

"Pleasure doing business" a leg snaked out from under the old womens Kimono and grabbed the bag

Sesshomaru turned and walked out of the village as he rode back to his palace and back to Kagome he unfolded the Kimono, It was cream with Dark green petals that looked to be flowing in the wind on the sleeves, along the hem and up the left side. 'Not bad' Sesshomaru refolded the Kimono and placed it in his haori letting it soak up his scent... As he touched down in the garden he found Kagome laying on her stomach, her bare feet kicking in her air, slightly dirty from where she walked. She had a Robin pertched on her index finger singing to her "You have a way with the animals" Sesshomaru spoke causing Kagoe to jump slightly

"Stop scaring me" Kagome half giggled half sighed

"I apologize" Sesshomaru chuckled "come" Sesshomaru held out his hand of Kagome to take

"Okay" Kagome let the bird fly away before she rose and took Sesshomaru's hand, he lead her back to the stone bench

"I have a gift for you" Sesshomaru held out the folded Kimono

"Oh wow" Kagome took the Kimono and held it up it gently unfolded and flutter in the breeze "Spider Silk?" Kagome rubbed the fabric as Sesshomaru nodded "This is beautiful" Kagome stood and held it up to her body "Its perfect" Kagome noticed it was just long enough for her to be able to maneuver in it "Thank you so much" Kagome bounced in excitement

"This Sesshomaru is glad you like it, now we must discus something"

"Okay" Kagome sat back down and listened

"You need to be trained, This Sesshomaru is willing to teach you but you must do exactly as I say"

"Of course" Kagome nodded, she knew she needed to be trained to control her powers especially if she ever wanted to be intimate with Sesshomaru

"Good then we shall start tomorrow; we must wait for your weapon to be finished"

"Right"

"So Rest tonight, I shall come get you when we are ready to leave"

"We aren't training here?" Kagome was confused

"It would be too dangerous to train here, not only for my servants but for you as well, I shall take you to the same place my father took me"

"Oh okay" Kagome smiled

"Rest" Sesshomaru kissed Kagome head and lead her back to her room.
