I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA!
A/N:: Hey people :) I wanted to thank you or all the wonderful reviews, Hope you enjoy this new chapter ^.^
While Sesshomaru was busy clashing swords with Jun, Inuyasha crawled over to Kagome, who was now lying in a pool of her own blood, tears falling down her cheek "Kagome?" Inuyasha brushed her hair from her face "Please don't die" He whispered nuzzling her face
"I'm not going to die not today" Kagome breath with a smiled as another tear ran down her cheek "Come here" Kagome breathed pulling Inuyasha closer she began whispering something in his ear
"But Why" Inuyasha asked tears filling his eyes
"Just do it Inuyasha" Kagome smiled and closed her eyes "now" She breathed as she let go of his Haori.
Inuyasha kissed her hand and stood "SESSHOMARU" Inuyasha yelled running full speed towards his half brother, Running in to him knocking him down to the ground Inuyasha and Sesshomaru skidded a few feet before finally stopping
"Inuyasha!" Sesshomaru growled punching Inuyasha so hard it broke his jaw, Inuyasha winced at the pain but did not let go of Sesshomaru "LET GO OF ME HALF BREED" Sesshomaru growled kicking Inuyasha in the side breaking 3 ribs Inuyasha gasped but grabbed on to Sesshomaru again.
"Thanks for the help Hanyou" Jun twisted up his sword up, Jun slammed his sword down on to the two fighting, Sesshomaru was so enraged at the death of his mate and now Inuyasha who was interfering, Sesshomaru did not noticed Jun Sword till it was to late, Sesshomaru braced for the impact of the sword but felt nothing, he looked to see a purple lights flickering over him. Jun slashed again but hit the barrier
"Inuyasha what did you do" Sesshomaru asked eyes returning to normal
"I-I didn't d-do anything" Inuyasha spoke through his teeth between gasped for air letting Sesshomaru go "It's Kagome" Sesshomaru punched his already broken jaw
"Half-breed Kagome s-" Sesshomaru was cut off seeing the rose he gave her on the ground "The rose is creating the barrier" Sesshomaru felt a tug on his heart 'even in death she is protecting us' Sesshomaru thought
"Sesshomaru (Gasp) Look" Inuyasha held his jaw and spoke through his teeth.
Sesshomaru looked up to see Jun turned around, his attention was on a small figured that was walking through the trees "Kagome?" Sesshomaru blinked 'Yes it is her, then who was?' he looked to the spot where the first Kagome laid only she was no longer there neither was the blood, it was if she was never stabbed by Jun
"What the hell? I killed you" Jun yelled
"You killed a copy" Kagome laughed and walking in to the clearing, Sesshomaru watched as not one, not two, but over 30 Kagome's walked in to the clearing, all in a circle around Jun "We are all copies, the real Kagome is not here" They all spoke at once
"I'm sick of your tricks"
"Aw come one, I have one more" They all spoke again, raising their hands in front for their chest forming an open V with their fingers and with their thumbs touching "Ready?" They all asked as a pink light formed in each of their hands "Now" They ordered as each one shot out their light towards Jun. Sesshomaru could not see due to the bright lights but he heard Jun Scream, once the light faded Sesshomaru saw that Jun was nothing more than a pile of ash. He looked to see all the kagomes gone as well.
"Kagome is alive" Sesshomaru whispered so low even Inuyasha didn't hear him, Sesshomaru reached for the rose laying on the ground receding the barrier "Hanyou you knew of this?" Sesshomaru looked back to see Inuyasha laying on the ground holding on to his jaw
~*~*~*~*~* Rewind, what Kagome told Inuyasha~*~*~*~*~
"I'm not going to die, come here" Kagome pulled Inuyasha closer
"Listen close, when I die take my rose and go to Sesshomaru, since he is distracted by Jun you should be able to take him, He will fight you but you must do this. Tackle Sesshomaru to the ground once their place the rose at his feet, keep a hold on him until you see me again"
"See you again?" Inuyasha breathed "but Kagome"
"Inuyasha please I'm losing the connection, just get Sesshomaru away from Jun, you will be hurt but I will fix you I promise, just place the rose at his feet once you have him down, I'll do the rest" Kagome rubbed his cheek "Trust me" she breathed
~*~*~*~*~How interesting right? haha~~~
"Inuyasha tell me how you knew" Sesshomaru demanded grabbing Inuyasha chest
"She told me" Inuyasha spat
"WHEN" He growled
"Before her copy died" Another voice chimed in Sesshomaru looked up to see the monk holding Kagome bridal style. The slayer was with him holding Shippo and Rin's Hands
Sesshomaru ran to Kagome, pulling her from the monks arms "She is fine, just tired from the amount of energy it took to make that many copys with her power in them" Miroku explained
"She is okay" Sesshomaru nuzzled her neck burring his face in her hair
"I'm okay" Kagome said in a rough voice
"Kagome" Sesshomaru looked up and captured her lips in a soft kiss
"I'm sorry I scared you" Kagome said once the kiss was broken
"You did more than scare me, I thought I lost you" Sesshomaru held her close "Kagome I can't live without you" Sesshomaru admitted not caring who heard
"Nor I which is why I did what I did" Kagome smiled
"HEY YOU SAID YOU WOULD FIX ME" Inuyasha spat thought his teeth holding his jaw and side
"I know, Sesshomaru can you put me down?"
"He can heal on his own" Sesshomaru held tighter
"I promised" Kagome laughed kissing him on the cheek "I keep my promises"
Sesshomaru growled but allowed her to help the Hanyou, She walked over to where he sat "Thank you Inuyasha, for once you listened to me"
"And look where it got me" He spat again
"I knew Sesshomaru would fight you but I did not think he would break your bones" Kagome looked back to see Sesshomaru standing over her 'Great now he is going to be over protective' Kagome sighed "I'm going to be using the last of my energy to heal you but I promised so once my powers are gone I will more than likely pass out, don't worry I just need the rest"
"Then the Half breed can wait" Sesshomaru went to grab Kagome back up but she tossed the rose on the ground placing a barrier
"I promised, don't worry I'll see you when I wake" Kagome kissed the air and turned back to Inuyasha, Kagome closed her eyes for a moment "Maybe you should be asleep because this will hurt" Kagome covered her mouth with her left hand and began to whisper in to it
"I'll be fi-" Inuyasha didnt get to finish as Kagome blew white dust in to his face causing him to fall asleep, Kagome laughed and laid him back opening his haori to see the long black and purple bruse on the left side of his body , she closed her eyes and opened her hand palms up as a white light started to glow in her hands Kagome leaned over Inuyashas ribs first and slowly started to heal them, everyone but Sesshomaru and Kagome covered their ears, the popping and cracking of Inuyasha bones was to much for them to handle. Once that was done, Kagome was feeling light headed but moved up to his jaw, she brought the light back to her hands and then softly placed them on Inuyasha Jaw, Sango shuddered as the sound of Inuyasha Jaw cracked and popped echoed.
"He will thank Kagome for putting him to sleep" Miroku shuddered as Kagome snapped another bone into place.
"There" Kagome breathed looked back at Sesshomaru, He could see the dark purple bags under her eyes that weren't there when she started, She used put all the energy she has left healing the ungrateful hanyou, he could have waited for Kagome to rest but he was greedy and because she promised... Sesshomaru watched as Kagome started to fall asleep "Kagome No! Remove the barrier!" Sesshomaru hit the barrier to wake her searing his hand in the process but he could bare her falling in to a deep sleep behind the barrier, and who knew when the Hanyou would be awake. He hit the barrier again "Kagome take it down!" he ordered
"Okay" Kagome breathed and started to crawl around Inuyasha and towards the rose that held the barrier
"Please Kagome don't fall asleep yet" Sesshomaru hit the barrier again causing a deep burn on his hand
"Stop" Kagome huffed as she collapsed on the ground, but started to crawl in her elbows, with all the energy drained out of her from the fight with Jun and healing Inuyasha the crawl felt like miles instead of feet, Kagome reached out for the rose and pulled it up, in the same moment fell into a deep sleep, Sesshomaru caught her head before it slammed against the ground he stepped around her lifting her into his arms bridal style, she felt like a dead boy in his arms 'She is not dead just tired' He listened to her slow heartbeat 'She is not dead just tired' He watched as her chest rose and fell with each breath.
"Is she going to be alright" Sango asked seeing Kagome lay limp in Sesshomaru arms
"Yes just in a deep sleep" Sesshomaru told them as he walked to the pups "Lets go" Sesshomaru ordered
"What about Inuyasha?" Miroku looked back to see Inuyasha still sleeping
"Kagome kept her promise to heal him, she did not promise to watch over him" Sesshomaru did not break stride as he spoke "Come, there is a camp spot nearby with a hot spring"
"Okay" Sango and Miroku took one last look at the sleeping Hanyou before walking behind Sesshomaru to the camp spot
~~~~~~THE HURT AND ANGRY INUYASHA WAKES UP~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ugh" Inuyasha sat up rubbing his jaw "Kagome I thought you were going to heal... this... Kagome?" Inuyasha looked around but no one was around, it was pitch black dark he looked up thinking it was the new moon but thankfully it was just cloudy "Hello?" Inuyasha yelled
He stood and walked around a little bit before catching Sesshomaru fading sent "They left me a long time ago, some friends leave me to die" Inuyasha ran after the scent getting stronger with each step he didn't have to run long maybe 20 minutes before he saw the light from the campfire "The the hell?" Inuyasha snapped as he slid to a stop in front of Miroku "You just left me"
"Kagome healed you as promised" Sesshomaru stated
"Yeah I know" Inuyasha snapped seeing Kagome sleeping in his lap with shippo in hers with Rin laying next to Sesshomarus knee "Well isn't that just sweet, but dont you think Kagome would be more comfortable if she lay-... What the fuck is that!" Inuyasha pointed to her head noticing the Crescent moon
"If you were a good boy and not interrupted you would know" Miroku smirked
"What the fuck is going on!" Inuyasha snapped waking the kids
"Half-breed lower your voice the pups are trying to sleep"
"Pups? you mean Shippo and Rin HA!"
"Sit" Kagome mumbled as Inuyasha kiss the dirt everyone blurted out in laugher except Sesshomaru who only smirked
"Ka..gome" Inuyasha moaned from his crater
"Inuyasha Kagome is mated with Sesshomaru" Sango said still laughing "I'm guessing you didn't know because Kagomes copies didn't have the mark"
"WHAT! You mated Kagome" Inuyasha yelled
"Sit" Kagome mumbled again
"Wow even in a deep sleep she knows we you need to be sat" Shippo laughed rolling over
"Why you" Inuyasha reached for Shippo but was caught by Sesshomarus hand
"You will leave my pups and mate alone half breed" Sesshomaru injected poison in to Inuyashas wrist "She is mine now, remember that!" Sesshomaru let go of Inuyashas wrist
"Dick!" Inuyasha spat walking away to heal is wounds
"Sit" Kagome mumbled
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha yelled as the group broke out in laugher; Sesshomaru bent his head down giving Kagome a kiss on the head over her crescent moon
"So what happened today" Sesshomaru asked
"What do you mean Sesshomaru-sama?" Sango asked
"You two disappeared, I'm sure it had something to do with Kagome, So what happened after she put the pups in the barrier" Sesshomaru clarified
"Oh well..." Miroku started
~~~~~WHAT HAPPENED BEHIND THE SCENES~~~~~
"Momma what are you doing?" Shippo asked wondering why kagome suddenly put them behind a barrier
"Shh, There is a demon near" Kagoe whispered
"What about Sesshomaru?" Shippo asked
"You two are my main concern, Sesshomaru can handle himself" Kagome jerked hearing Sesshomaru about to touch the barrier, Kagome watched as the first demon came into few stopping Sesshomaru before he could get shocked by the barrier , she watched as her mate killed it without moving an inch, Kagome felt pride rush through her
"Can we get out now?" Rin asked
"No, there is one more" Kagome Watched holding on to her pups as Sesshomaru bounced off the barrier a few moment later the demon Kagome felt was in view. Kagome held on to her pups tighter as they engaged in a conversation
"Do not test me" Sesshomaru warned
"Hmm I guess I can kill you before I kill her" Jun charged, Kagome watched in horror as Sesshomaru begin pushed back getting closer to the barrier.
"Look at me, we are going to run over to Sang to Miroku okay, Keep up and run fast! when we get there I'm going to let go of your hands, grab on to my legs" Kagome Pulled them up to stand "NOW" She ordered as they took off, Kagome took the barrier down for a split second to grab on to Miroku and Sango arms, as soon as she held them the threw the barrier up
"Kagome" Miroku looked down not noticed he was in a barrier
"Lets go!" Kagome pushed them forward
"Where, shouldn't we help" Sango asked looking back seeing Sesshomaru having a hard time
"Yes, but I need you to be in a safe place" Kagome walked them in to another clearing keeping the barrier up "Now Miroku I'm going to take this barrier down and when I do I need you to place one up, I need to concentrate and I can't think about a barrier while I do this"
"Okay" Miroku grabbed a sutra "ready when you are"
"Kagome what are you doing?" Sango asked seeing Kagome sit down on her legs
"Now" Kagome waved her hands as Miroku started to chant, as soon as the new barrier was up Kagome started a chant of her own "This" Kagome breathed and looked outside the barrier
Sango turned to see a copy of Kagome standing outside "A copy?"
"Yes, Keep Shippo and Rin safe I need full consecration, don't let them touch me at any cost" Sango nodded and pulled Shippo and Rin into her arms, Kagome took a deep breath as the copy started to move.
Sango watched as Kagomes lips started to move as if she were talking but no sound came out, Sango watched as Kagomes muscles twitched and mouth move...
"AHHHHHHH" Kagome screamed and held her chest Sango grabbed the children so they wouldn't touch Kagome "This is going to ruin my whole day" Kagome spoke breathing heavily.
"Momma?" Shippo and Rin Asked pulling away from Sango, They watched as Kagome shuddered and gasped for air, Sango watched as she lips began to move again with no sound coming out.
Kagome opened her eyes and gasped for air "ouch that hurt" Kagome looked to the pup who had tears filling their eyes "I'm okay, my copy died but I felt its pain that s all"
"You're okay right?" Sango asked
"Yes" Kagome took another deep breath and sent out more copies, Sango watched as Kagomes lips moved and how Kagome brought her hands to her chest and grunted in pain, after a few moments Kagome opened her eyes and looked to her pups "Its okay, he is gone lets get back to Sesshomaru and Inuyasha
"Inuyasha?" Miroku asked letting the barrier fall
"Yes he jumped in after I was stabbed in the chest by Jun" Kagome sighed rubbing her chest "Still hurts"
"Well lets get going" Miroku looked back to see Shippo transform and catch Kagome "Kagome!" He asked jumping over to her "She just fainted, I'll get her" Miroku handed his staff to Rin and picked up Kagome to take her to Sesshomaru
"And then we found you...I must say she is a quick thinker" Miroku cheered
"Great under pressure" Sango added
"I see" Sesshomaru looked down at his sleeping Mate pride filling his soul "Sleep" Sesshomaru ordered the others.
