A/N. Sorry for the wait for this chapter, I've been really sick recently and I still am now, but I managed to write this chapter with a pounding headache so I hope it's ok!

Kagome couldn't sleep well. While her room was next to past Sesshoumaru, future Sesshoumaru had gotten a room on the other side of her, and they were both extremely pissed off about the current situation. Kagome was practically sandwiched between 2 raging Yokai auras, sending all her miko senses into absolute peril. 'For crying out loud these two are like 12 year olds' she mused. She sat up in bed, sleeping yukata disheveled and hair tousled. 'Maybe I can sneak into Okaa-San room and explain in the morning', she decided. She looked extremely cute half lidded and yawning. It must have been around 4 am if she had to guess. She grabbed a thick fluffy pillow from her bed and walked towards her door. The castle was silent. She tiptoed out of her door and silently made her way through the creeping darkness as best she could with no eyesight.

One thing about being turned into this creature was she had a Yokai sense of smell. This greatly benefited her in this broken state, as she could smell her way to where Sayuri and Inutaisho was sleeping. She tried to quietly as possible feel her way along the wall, grabbing and sniffing for what felt like hours. She finally reached her destination. She silently slid open the door to make out Sayuri and Inutaisho's sleeping forms on a large bed. Their auras were calm and relaxed, the total opposite from the raging storm of demonic aura she was trapped in inside her own room. She hoped Sayuri wouldn't mind but that she would understand when she explained in the morning. She walked over to the bed until her hands found she edge. Thankfully Sayuri wasn't sleeping close to the edge. She shuffled in and snuggled up to Sayuri. "Musu..me" Sayuri mumbled in her sleep before wrapping her arms around Kagome. Kagome smiled and relished the warmth. 'Sorry Inutaisho, I'm borrowing your wife tonight' she internally giggled before drifting into a deep sleep.

It was then that she had the dream again. The dream of the white land with the Sakura trees and the eternal crescent moon. Kagome saw the figure not to far from her, long silver hair blew in the slight breeze. He was looking right at her. She was about to take a step forwards when an image of him attacking her, eyes red and demonic, digging his claws into her neck and blood and toxic ooze squirting everywhere. She had never seen what he looked like when he attacked her but this image her mind had created had chilled her to the absolute core. She heard his feral snarl in her mind and that's when she started screaming and clutching her head. She didn't want to die again, she didn't want to suffer again, she didn't want to be hear. She started running away as fast as she could from the figure but he started chasing her. His eyes were blood red. She tears raced down her cheeks as she ran for her life, heart pounding and lungs screaming at her. He was almost upon her when suddenly she was pulled away from the White into the black.

Kagome shot up, eyes damp with tears, her whole body shaking and in a cold sweat. She was whimpering like a scared animal. She clutched her head tightly and started sobbing. Warm arms were around her, echoed questions trying to reach her. "Kagome, Kagome! Are you alright? Kagome? Please listen to me, Kagome!" She heard. She finally stopped for a minute and turned her head to face the direction of the voice. Even though her eyes were blank and lifeless, her body told a different story. "Okaa-San, I don't want to die again, please save me from him" she squeaked out, sobbing uncontrollably. Sayuri shot a worried glance at Inutaisho, who had sat watching silently ever since he awoke and found his adopted daughter shaking, locked in some kind of nightmare. "If I die in my dream, will I die for real?" She asked, breaths contorted and shaking like mad. Sayuri cradled Kagome In her arms. "Musume it was just a dream, no one will come and get you, you are safe with me" she consoled. Kagome slowly calmed down in Sayuri's calm aura, before she was helped to her feet. "Let's go have a nice soak together in the lovely warm water, shall we?" She chirped. Kagome nodded, still slightly shaking, and took Sayuri's hand as she was gently led to the bath house.

Kagome closed her eyes as Sayuri gently washed her hair. "Musume.." She began in a worried voice, "it's not the first time you've had a dream like that, is it?" She finished.

Kagome looked down at the water and sighed. 'Of course she would be worried about me, but this is her son, I can't make it seem like I'm trying to turn her against him' she worried internally. "Okaa..San. He was in my dreams a few times.. But last night, he tried to kill me again. I saw his red eyes and his fangs baring at me, and the green claws, I'm so scared. I don't know why he killed me the first time, I don't know if I can trust him again" she turned slowly to make sure she was facing Sayuri. "I'm sorry, it's just so scary." She trailed off as tears fell from her eyes. Sayuri pulled her close. "I understand musume, but in time, it will get better. It must if he came from the future to save you" she giggled. Kagome blushed as they made their way out of the water. "We'll see" she said, smiling as Sayuri held her hand.

Sayuri dressed Kagome into a beautiful kimono with Inu Yokai on it. She then brushed her hair and added a lovely pin with a blue gem on it. Kagome didn't like others dressing her but she enjoyed the fact Sayuri had so much fun doing this so she let her. After Sayuri was satisfied with her handiwork, she grabbed Kagome by the hand. "Ready for dinner?" She chirped, voice almost musical. Kagome grinned. Although she missed her real mother, she really did have a special bond with Sayuri. "Okaa-san thank you for taking such good care of me, I love you" Kagome said, blushing slightly. She was not one for outward confessions like that but she really wanted Sayuri to know her gratitude. Sayuri's face lit up and she pulled Kagome into a cuddle. "I love you too, musume, I hope things can get better soon." She said as he led Kagome by the hand into the dining hall.

Kagome felt the tense upon entering the hall. She had a funny mental image of both Sesshoumaru's staring at eachother coldly, lightning sparking between them, just like a scene from a love triangle anime she saw on TV once. "Good morning everyone" Sayuri chirped happily as she walked in with Kagome following close behind. "Good morning, beautiful koi" Inutaisho replied before giving his mate a kiss on the hand. Sayuri giggled and helped Kagome into her seat. Kagome shifted and clenched her fists on her knees. 'Um.. Inu..uh.. Otou-San?" She asked, raising her head in his direction and smiling awkwardly. Inutaisho looked at her and grinned. "What is it Kagome?" He replied cheerfully, happy she was speaking to him. "Well, it's been over half a year since my everyday training.." She started. "My muscles are probably non existent now, and I miss the thrill of sparring" she continued. Inutaisho raised a furry black eyebrow. "I wouldn't be opposed to bonding with my adopted daughter." He answered. "We shall spar every morning from sunrise till noon then" he finished. Kagome let out a big grin and was almost sparkling, she would have looked beautiful if it wasn't for her soulless orbs.

"I hope this new sense of smell can be my eyes" she nervously giggled.

"Oh, what happened to my swords that I had when I got here?" She asked questioningly.

The shrill cold voice of past Sesshoumaru answered her. "They are in my room, I will fetch them later". Kagome stiffened at this voice and quickly nodded silently. Future Sesshoumaru noticed her tense at his past selves voice and scowled.

'At least she wants to train so she is not totally useless' past Sesshoumaru thought in his mind.

Kagome tried her best to form a glare at him. 'I can hear you, ya'know' she fired back into his mind. Young Sesshoumaru smirked at her glare and decided not to answer.

After dinner Kagome was sitting in her room, feeling the cool evening breeze on her skin. She had pulled the top half of her kimono off and was thinking about tomorrow morning. Suddenly, her door opened and footsteps followed by the wet forest scent of younger Sesshoumaru came in. Kagome tensed and sat still, her hair covering her exposed top half. "Your blades" he said, dropping something metal sounding onto her bed next to her. Kagome didn't turn but nodded. It was obvious she was still afraid of him, and this made him pleased yet irritated at the same time. He softly moved her hair, exposing her neck. Although it had healed, for some reason it had scarred a dark read colour. He stroked it with his knuckles and Kagome jumped. With a commercial "Hn" from Sesshoumaru, and he walked out of her room, closing the door behind him. Kagome sighed. She used to admire Sesshoumaru, even have a little crush on him, but after what happened, being near past Sesshoumaru frightened her, and she couldn't help fearing. She wasn't sure about future Sesshoumaru either, although he had tried to kill her twice, he had evidently saved her once, and proved he did not hate humans as much as people thought.

Past Sesshoumaru walked past his future self on the way to the main garden. They exchanged cold glares and silent "Hn's" before continuing. Past Sesshoumaru went and sat under a Sakura tree, looking up at the setting sun. 'I wonder if she will ever trust this Sesshoumaru again'. He pondered, 'not like I care if she does' he finished. Deep down, his inner beast stirred in dismay.

apologies for any mistakes I'm still sick ;_;
