Chapter 9

"Sesshoumaru? Heyyy!" Kagome waved her hands infront of Sesshomaru but he was still silent and in a daze. Hmm I wonder…

Sesshoumaru felt something moving down from his chest and snapped out from his daze and realized that his lil onna was teasing him…

~Sorry skipping the lemons~

By the time they had finished their little teasing game, Kagome and Sesshomaru was panting and decided to quickly wash up and get back to the inu taichi.

They slowly made their way back to camp, enjoying each other's company.

By the time they reached camp, Sango, Miroku, Shippo were sitting near the fire whereas Naraku and Takken were on guard duty.

Once kagome had settled down with Sesshoumaru, Miroku spoke out his thoughts and worry to her.

"Ne, Kagome-sama, how do we intend to beat Ryukotsusei when we are nothing more then humans. As your father have mentioned even at Inuyasha's level we aren't able to beat him! I mean if a hanyou cannot do it what more can we mere humans can?"

Kagome smiled at Miroku before answering, "Well otou-sama did say we were to train in my palace in the northern lands… To train you to break your limits and go further."

"But who will train us?"

Shippo could only snickered at this, "Ah that is simple Miroku, kaa-san will train Sango, I will train you and Sesshoumaru-sama will have to train the half breed."

Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow at Shippo's statement.

'Then what about those two?!' Sango demanded shooting a worried look at Naraku and Takken.

"they will train our armies. Both the western and northern armies… We will need to call Koga and have his cooperation with this too." Kagome looked at naraku and gave him a silent mission to retrieve the wolf prince by any means possible without killing him

'we do not have enough time sango, miroku, but we will push you til you are strong enough by any means for this upcoming war. Trust me when I say by any means. I will even train you in your sleep.'

Sango and Miroku shuddered at their new information and decided to rest before heading for the northern lands in the morning

The next morning, the inu taichi was awoken by the sound of swords clashing. Naraku and Kagome were battling as Takken was attacked by Sesshomaru. Inuyasha, being dense as always, came to a conclusion that Naraku had attacked Kagome out of evil will, totally not realizing Sesshomaru and Takken were sparring too.

He grabbed Tetsusaiga and hauled himself down from his tree, advancing towards Naraku as quickly as possible. "Wind Scar!" he let loose the powerful slash of the sword towards the tsubasa youkai in an attempt to 'save' Kagome.

Naraku, though caught off guard, dodged the attack after countless times of being attacked by it. When the dust cleared, Naraku glared at the hanyou and snarled, "what foolish games do you think you are doing hanyou?!"

Inuyasha scoffed at the comment and growled at Naraku, "I knew I couldn't trust you! You're still evil no matter what Kagome says! And I'm going to kill you for attacking her!"

Before he could do anything, his instincts flared, telling him danger was near and that he had to flee. Kagome was pissed off that the fact her sparring was interrupted and by Inuyasha no less. Her miko powers flared dangerously and it was directed to a certain half breed.

Sesshomaru and Takken had stopped to watch the fight between Kagome and Inuyasha. Sesshomaru mentally smirked as he hoped his woman would finally end his foolish brother's misery by ending his life. Though he knew she wouldn't, but it didn't hurt to hope right?

By this time Sango and Miroku had lost interest in the soon-to-be-dead hanyou and went to prepare breakfast as Shippo had went to hunt.

Inuyasha turned his head towards the dangerous feeling of holy powers directed to him. He gulped loudly as his nervous gaze met Kagome's intense glare.

"what do you think you are doing Inuyasha?" she asked calmly, too calm for his comfort. Heck he'd prefer if she had sat him over and over til her passed out.

"erm.. err… he was attacking you Kagome! I had to save you!" he tried to sound brave but his tremor didn't help at all.

Kagome snarled at him causing Inuyasha to jump a bit.

"Save me? From what? From Naraku? Inuyasha, we were sparring! What part of sparring and getting at each other's throat can't you not differentiate?! Are you that dumb or what?!" she took a shuddering breath and her powers calmed down slightly, "Nevermind that, I've always known that you had air for brains."

She turned her back to the hanyou and walked towards the camp, daring the hanyou to retort back silently. But Inuyasha knew better then to piss off Kagome. His ears flattened atop his head and he hung his head down shamefully.

Sesshomaru walked towards Kagome and wrapped his arms around her waist tightly as he nuzzled her cheek. Words weren't needed as the male comforted his female with small kisses and low growls to soothe her anger. Kagome placed her hands atop of Sesshomaru's arms and took a deep breath, "I'm fine now Sesshomaru. I need to help Sango make breakfast."

Sesshomaru had made a low whine in protest but Kagome silenced him as she spun around quickly and kissed him deeply. The taiyoukai wrapped his arms around her waist to pull her closer to him as he tilted her head to dominate their kiss. Kagome gave a small moan of pleasure as Sesshomaru nipped her bottom lip for entrance. Their kiss deepen heatedly but Kagome, realizing there were audience around them, pushed her intended away from her slowly and nuzzled his cheek lovingly before moving away to help Sango with the breakfast.

Shippo grinned mischievously at Sesshomaru with five rabbits in his hands. He had returned shortly after the couple started their makeout and had found it rather interesting to sit silently and watch. The demon lord raised an elegant brow to the kit before motioning to him to hand the rabbits to his mother. Shippo stuck his tongue out at Sesshomaru and gave him a knowing look before quickly darted off towards his mother.

It was already afternoon by the time the inu taichi arrived at the northern lands. Kagome was greeted by a female neko youkai. She had dark red hair and bright yellow eyes with slits. She was about an inch or two shorter than her. The neko youkai had her head bowed towards Kagome, "Welcome back my lady, my name is Aki. I am the second in command after Takken-sama."

Kagome smiled warmly at her subordinate and waved off the lady, "The name's Kagome. Please drop the lady thing. It really puts me off. This is my intended, Lord Sesshomaru of the western lands, his half brother Inuyasha, my son Shippo, my friends Sango, Miroku and Kirara. This is Naraku, my… old friend." She introduced to her.

Aki was namely shock. Not only the lady of the land told her not to call her lady, she was the intended of the most powerful demon and she was in the company of his half brother! The name Naraku though, had her tensed up. Seeing this, Kagome chuckled softly.

"oh don't worry Aki, he won't be of trouble, I'll strangle him myself if he does. Besides he isn't the evil you should be worried about. How bout I tell you everything when we're inside? With food in our bellies."

Immediately Aki bowed again and apologized before leading the Lady of the Northern lands and her group in. Kagome had told Aki to ready the rooms for her friends and get them lunch while they head off to clean themselves. Takken had taken the rest of them to their rooms while Aki sped off to the kitchen.

Kagome was sitting in her meeting room with the rest waiting for her to begin. She took a deep breath before sighing heavily.

She began to explain to her officers, commanders and generals about the return of the old evil, Ryukotsusei. All were stunned and had no words to reply. Kagome nodded to them in understanding, saying she didn't believe it until she saw him with her own eyes.

She gave them a moment more to recompose themselves. When they did, she began explaining everything that had happened and will happen. War was upon them and it was inevitable. She didn't waste time and began ordering them to start training at the first light tomorrow with Takken and Naraku as their leaders. All had weary looks at Naraku. But Kagome had nothing to worry as her servant would prove his worthy of his rank in his own way. All that was left was to rest and wait for a certain wolf and his pack to arrive tomorrow.

With that much said, Kagome dismissed them and cast Sesshomaru a cheeky grin.

A/N: OooOOoo what's with the cheeky grin Ka-Go-Me?! XDDDD review please!
