Thank you to all who loyally read my fan fictions!

Naraku slammed Inuyasha into a wall, "you failed me mutt!"

Inuyasha simply wimpered.

Naraku glared at him, "Next time I order you to do something, I expect it done! Otherwise I will not give you Kagome when the world is mine, I will take her for myself and keep you alive to torture you as I take her every night!"

Inuyasha laughed, "but I killed Kagome so Sesshomaru couldn't have her."

Naraku rushed him and kicked him, breaking ribs, "you think she will stay that way for long with your father's other fang you idiot. You are to return to the that world and kill the orange kitsune, the one called Shippou, and if you come across Kikyou again you will kill her!"

Inuyasha curled into a ball, "NEVER, why don't you send Kagome's and Sesshomaru's brat after them if you want the kitsune dead so badly!"

Naraku smirked before kicking Inuyasha again causing the inu-hanyou to curl into a tighter ball, "it is not time for him to go to that world, to truly break their spirit," he turned his back on Inuyasha and continued talking, "now be gone, you must return at first light."

Inuyasha crawled out of the room away from Naraku.

The first one to Kagome was Hiroshi, he stared at her, her pale skin grey and her blood sinking into the ground, he knelt next to her and started ripping his shirt and using the part he ripped to try to quench the bleeding, the amount of blood she was losing was even too much for a youkai.

Sesshomaru was next to come, he froze, and simply fell to his knees his hand gripping testing, and howled to the heavens in mourning as he heard Kagome's last heart beat.

Shippou then burst into the clearing with Miroku on his back, he immediately dropped Miroku with a plop and went and cradled his adoptive mother's head in his lap and joined Sesshomaru in their howl, tears falling from all eyes.

They were like that for a few minutes before Tetsaiga pulsed catching Sesshomaru's attention fully.

He drew his father's fang, and spoke as Shippou voice grew silent, "will you revive her Tetsaiga?"

It pulsed in response and he stood up and saw the imps of the underworld, Tetsaiga pulsed urgently and he slew the imps of the underworld.

The first face Kagome saw was the concerned face of the hawk youkai and palace guard, Hiroshi then Shippou and Miroku, then finally Sesshomaru, she stared at them, from the looks in their eyes she knew what had happened and that explained why she had been talking to Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's father, she had thought it a dream.

They helped her up, she felt soar all over, though she knew she was fully healed, it felt like she was one giant bruise.

The first thing she said was, "He got away."

They simply nodded.

But they all knew he would be back, and soon if they were guessing correctly.

Meanwhile Kikyou stood on a cliff and one by one slew each of her soul collectors, her heart wept though she could shed no tears. The last one slid from her grasp as she looked into the horizon, sighed, "I will always love you Inuyasha," and she jumped to her doom at the jagged rocks so far below.

About a minute later Kagome was sitting in a tent that had been set up at the camp when she sensed the part of her soul that had been missing for so long flying towards her fast, she rushed out of the tent and it hit her in the chest absorbing into her skin, making her soul whole.

She gasped, the others in the camp watched her expectantly as she suddenly started hovering and glowing then there was a flash before she slowly came back to the ground, she was quickly was caught by Hiroshi who had been guarding her tent, seeing her personal safety as his mission. She was calmly asleep when he caught her, he quickly pushed the tent flap aside and took her back inside and placed her back on the cot.

What he didn't notice was not a few feet away was Sesshomaru's eyes starting to bleed red, all soldiers near him quickly gave him space, only one came near him, Shippou, who placed a hand on his father-in-law's shoulder, "he simply caught her Sesshomaru-sama. He is not mating her, it seems the rest of her soul has returned, Kikyou is dead."

Most of the soldiers had never seen their lord hold so many emotions, sure he had softened up since Lady Kagome had come to live at the palace but never had they seen him loose control, the mated ones recognized the signs, their lord was deeply in love, what troubled them was why he had not claimed her as mate, though none dared say anything to him directly.

Sesshomaru calmed himself as soon as Hiroshi left Kagome's tent and bowed before his lord and said, "she sleeps peacefully my lord," then quickly sat down.
