"It's snowing" The great Lord spoke,

"And this is important why?"

Sessshomaru's father turned to him "Do you not recall the night of her birth, it started to snow"

Sesshomaru looks up at his father and is silent for a moment "I recall"

His father smiles, "We should visit on her birthday"

"Why" He ask,

"Why not?" His father ask,

"We never visit on birthdays"

"So, we can start"

"She is to young father, and I to old"

"What are you trying to say my son"

"I am saying father, the girl is to young"

"She will be 5 soon, the age Kikyo started to see inuyasha"

"And Inuyasha is not much younger then her in human terms, what a year?"

"Age does not matter here my son and you know it"

"But it does father, I am a growing male, she is a mere child"

"You are still a pup!"

"I am 6 years older then her in human terms!"

"But over 100 years in inu term, so what does it matter"

"Is it not I who is the child her, father?"

"Yes, you are still a child"

"Then why am I the only one acting as an adult"

"Watch you tongue son"

"Inuyasha is 50 years old, he is the pup, not I"

"Are you saying you to do not believe her to be your mate?"

"Yes"

Sesshomaru quickly leaves,

"Oh dear" This was not good,

"Sir" A vampire bows "A letter"

He quickly takes it and reads it "It's form Kikyo, quickly, fetch my son Inuyasha"

"Yes sir"

"She wishes to come back, before summer, urgent?"

Why, why where young people now a days so odd, what ever happen to doing as you where told?

"You wanted to see me dad?"

"Yes, get your brother, we are going to pick up Kikyo?"

"What, why? Is everything ok?"

"Just go, meet me at the stables"

"Yes father"

The men road into the noon light, it would be night fall before they reached the castle. Kikyo's mother and father where very surprised indeed to see them.

"Is everything ok?" Kikyo's father asked,

"I should ask you, your daughter sent me this" Inu Tashio hands him then note,

"Kikyo" Her father calls, she comes out ready,

"Kikyo?" Her mother asked,

"I need to speak with my Lord"

"Oh?" The Lord ask,

Kikyo's eyes go to Sesshomaru "Yes"

"Very well then, Inuyasha"

"Right"

"I wanna go to!" Came the small voice of Kagome who happened to step out,

"No" Came the voices of her mother, sister and Sesshomaru"

This makes Kagome sad "Kikyo always gets to go"

She no longer wants to be alone, her brother is never around, and she is left with no one to play with.

"Dear sweet Kagome, tell you what, on your 6th birthday, I will allow you to come"

Kagome beams, regardless of the sharp gasp of her mother and the growl of one son.

"Now, we must be going, it is growing cold"

Kikyo's family watches with sadness as they leave, not understanding why she would want to go.
