Last Time:
"You're probably right. I'm just stressing myself out." Kagome said while she tried to ignore the feeling she had when she looked into the trees. She started to think about her and Pansy's plan and couldn't help the smile that played on her lips, nor could she help it that the strange feeling she had took home in the back pf her mind.
A Misunderstanding and A Talk With Sesshoumaru:
The Halloween Ball was only four days away and the school was buzzing with excitement. Especially two certain Slytherine girls. Kagome and Pansy were frantic in making last minute preparation for the final stage of their plan. They had barely even had time to talk to the boys at all and this was more than a little frustrating for them. Draco and Miroku would try and engage in conversation with the girls but the most they got were either head nods or if the were lucky, one word answers. So, out of annoyance (mostly from Draco) and understanding that they were excited for the ball (mostly Miroku), they decided to back off a little and leave the girls alone for a while. Kagome and Pansy were walking outside, headed to the Quiddich pitch to watch the Slytherine team practice for the upcoming match against Ravenclaw, and were going over the stages of the plan so far completed.
"Okay, so we caught the boys eyes. Check." Pansy said.
"We got them to ask us to the Ball." Kagome added.
"We got our costumes."
"We have make-up and shoes picked out."
"Now all that's left is the final step."
"Them admitting that they're in love with us too."
"And if they're not…"
"…we're idiots."
"Yup."
They were still a bit far from the Quiddich field but with Kagome's sensitive hearing she was just barely able to pick up the sounds of giggling coming from the field. She focused her eyes and in the distance she could see Draco and Miroku sitting in the stands with two girls standing in front of them twirling their hair around their fingers, trying to smile sexily, and lightly brushing the boys hair with their fingers. Kagome put her arm out to stop Pansy who gave her a weird look. Without saying a word Kagome conjured a pair of binoculars out of thin air, ignored the awed look Pansy gave her and handed her the binoculars. Also without saying a word she pointed in the direction of the bleachers where the boys were. Pansy looked through the binoculars and gasped in horror.
"Those sluts!! Ohhh and those assholes!" Pansy stomped furiously. Thankfully she was so mad she didn't even ask Kagome how she had known what they were doing from so far away.
"Oh I'm about to march over there and give them a piece of my mind!!" Pansy shouted and started for the Quiddich field.
"No Pansy wait." Kagome said, stopping Pansy with her arm again.
"What? You're just gonna let those assholes forget about us for some sluts?!" Pansy asked hysterically.
"No of course not. But we're mad as hell." Kagome said and Pansy gave her a no-shit look. "So you know what we do right? We get even." Kagome said with fury in her eyes. "Come on Pansy. I have an idea." Kagome and Pansy stormed to their dorm with rage practically rolling off them in waves. Anyone near them shuddered and felt sorry for the dumb people who pissed them off.
888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888
(meanwhile with the boys)
"I'm sorry girls but we already have dates to the Ball." Miroku said for the thousandth time. He was seriously getting pissed at these two girls. He and Draco had just finished up practice and were heading to the locked room when two Hufflepuff girls cut them off. Miroku looked to Draco for help but he was too busy brooding over the fact that Pansy had barely been paying attention to him lately. He didn't even seem to notice the dark haired girl standing in front of him or touching his arms which were tight across his chest. He is just like Inuyasha. So moody. Miroku thought, shaking his head.
"Yeah we know. That Higurashi girl and Parkinson." The girl in front of him said, rolling her eyes. To many guys, she would be very attractive. She had long coal black hair, she was tall and had long legs which could still be seen even under the knee length skirt, large pouty lips, and big boobs. But Miroku liked the way Kagome looked better. He liked that she was small, that her hair sparkled in the sun, that she had a nice small mouth.
"Yes those are who our dates are. Like I said, I'm sorry." Miroku sighed.
"Don't say that to us. Say it to yourselves. You're missing out on us. We could see to it that you had a much more fun time." The girl replied. This got Miroku pissed. The old him would have jumped at the chance to sleep with this girl, but the new him liked that Kagome was pure and still had her innocence.
"Yeah and Parkinson looks like a pig." The girl in front of Draco said. This got his attention as he snapped into reality and a frown marred his face.
"She does not you're just a slut!" Draco shouted. The girl looked shocked before huffing and crossing her arms. Miroku was still pissed at what the girl said when she said she could show him a better time than Kagome and had just about enough of them.
"Well ladies it looks like we have to go. Bye." Miroku said in an icily polite voice before him and Draco got up and just about ran out of there.
88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888
Draco and Miroku were starting to get worried about Kagome and Pansy. They hadn't seen them all day and they weren't at dinner nor were they in the common room. They tried to go up to the girls dorms but the stairs, like always, turned into a slide and they fell to the bottom. They finally gave up and headed to their own dorm to get some sleep. Very unaware of the work that was being done in the girls dorm.
The next morning Miroku and Draco waited for what seemed like hours (really about ten minutes) in the common room for the girls to go to breakfast with them but they didn't come down so they assumed that they were already in the great hall eating. Once the boys reached the great hall they scanned the table for any sign of the girls but found none. Disappointed, they sat down and began loading their plates with food. They were in the middle of a discussion about what could be wrong with the girls when all talking at their table ceased. They looked up and their jaws dropped for the second time that year.
Kagome and Pansy were walking towards the table in a very different version of their uniform. Their skirts no longer went to their knees but a little lower than mid thigh. Their shirts were now snug against their bodies and the vests also snug against them. They still wore their knee high black socks and black shoes but it only added to the affect. Their robes didn't make them look frumpy like it did most girls but it gave them a sort of regal look. It was easy to tell that every male, and even some female, eye was on them. Draco and Miroku smiled at them and were about to say something to them when Kagome and Pansy walked right passed them and sat down with Blaise Zambini and another Italian kid named Tony. They started talking to the other guys and giggling as Blaise and Tony practically drooled on themselves.
Kagome's idea had been perfect. All the guys were staring at them and when they sat down with two other guys, one look at Miroku and Draco and she knew they were jealous. Kagome lightly kicked Pansy under the table and casually flicked her head in their direction. Pansy quickly glanced at the boys and a triumphant smirk adorned her face. Her smirk just grew when Miroku and Draco got up and made their way over to them.
"Uh excuse me Kagome, Pansy, but could we have a word with you?" Miroku asked while gritting his teeth.
"Why of course Miroku." Kagome answered with anger in eyes but a sweet smile on her face. Miroku and Draco let the girls out of the great hall and into the hallway (a/n: that sounds weird…?). Kagome and Pansy crossed their arms and waited to see what the boys would say. Miroku didn't seem to know what to say and he looked utterly confused but that didn't matter because Draco spoke up for him.
"What the bloody hell are you doing?!" Draco shouted. This got Pansy royally pissed.
"We're only doing what we have the bloody right to do!!" Pansy shouted even louder. Students from inside the great hall were trying to strain their necks to get a better look of the brawl going on just beyond the door.
"Uh maybe we should move this somewhere else? People are starting to stare." Miroku said.
"Well let them stare Miroku!! Let them all see just how charming you guys are! So charming in fact that you flirt with everything with a pair of long legs!!" There was fury in Kagome's eyes and tears rolling down her face. She grabbed Pansy's hand, who also had tears coming from her eyes. "Come on Pansy, we're leaving." They started to turn away when Miroku made the mistake of grabbing Kagome's arm and whipping her around to face him.
"No Kagome stop…" Was all Miroku could get out before he was sent flying across the hall into the opposite wall from a simple push from Kagome. He was sent flying with such force that the wall cracked behind him and every student watching gasped.
Kagome's eyes were bleeding pink. The demon inside of her was thoroughly pissed. Not only had he betrayed her trust, damaged her pride, but he had also tried to physically man handle her! Her hands were clenched so tightly that her claws had drawn blood and her whole body was trembling. The only thing that calmed her down was her best friends hand coming to grasp hers. Kagome relaxed at her friends touch and felt Pansy's hand in hers. She blinked away the pink in her eyes and turned to her friend who was staring at her with not fear, but worry in her eyes.
"Come on Kagome, we should go." Pansy said while pulling on Kagome's arm. Kagome let Pansy pull her away while she stared at Miroku's unconscious form. She was numb. She had never felt demon rage before and she had almost succumbed to it. She had almost let herself kill the man she loved. She had wanted to feel his blood on her hands. I'm a monster. She thought to herself as her and Pansy bumped into a very familiar someone.
"Miss Parkinson. Miss Higurashi. Is there a problem?" Sesshoumaru asked them.
"Oh no Professor. There's no problem, Kagome here just doesn't feel well." Pansy explained to him. Sesshoumaru glanced at Kagome's dazed state and seemed to come to a decision.
"Miss Higurashi, I would like to see you in my office today. After you feel well of course." With that, Sesshoumaru continued on his way and the Pansy rushed Kagome down to the dungeons and into their dorm.
"Ok Kagome…what's going on? What was that back there?" Pansy asked frantically. Kagome looked at her dazed for a moment before regaining her composure.
"Uh…it was…" Kagome started but her head was still reeling and she wasn't able to come up with a sufficient lie this time. She sighed and decided she needed to tell her best friend the truth. "Ok…do you want to know the truth?"
"No…I want you to lie? Yes I want the bloody truth!!" Pansy screamed. And Kagome flinched as the loud sound reached her sensitive ears.
"Ok Ok…but you have to promise not to freak out ok?" Kagome asked.
"I promise."
"Ok…well…I'm not exactly…human." Kagome said and closed her eyes and waited for her friend to scream. But no scream came. She opened her eyes and Pansy was just standing there,
"Ok…there's a lot of non human things around here…what's the big deal? Other than there's never been a non-human witch but that's hardly a big deal." Pansy said with a shrug.
"I mean to say…I'm a youkai…er…demon. From ancient Japan." Kagome said while looking down.
"What do you mean from ancient Japan?" Pansy said while raising an eyebrow.
Kagome proceeded to tell Pansy the story of how she was dragged down the well. She told her how she met Inuyasha and how they were on a mission to complete the jewel. She even told her about Kikyo and how in the end she and Kikyo had become friends sort of. She finally told her the betrayal she and Miroku suffered and how they came to the future and about Shippo who was left in Japan.
"Wow…that's crazy!! And that Inuyasha is such an ass!! But I'm glad you told me." Pansy finished with a small smile.
"Yeah it feels good to get it off my chest. But I better go see what Sesshoumaru wanted. I'll be back soon."
"Ok. Hey wait!! It he…?" Pansy asked.
"Yeah…he's Inuyasha's half-brother." Kagome said with a smile.

"Well this is a sight to see. I've never seen you look so…domestic." Kagome chuckled as she walked into his office. Sesshoumaru was behind his desk correcting papers when Kagome walked in.
"Hn."
"Oh and I thought you had become more talkative." Kagome joked.
"You almost lost yourself this morning did you not?" Sesshoumaru said while not looking up and Kagome instantly got stiff.
"That's…true. I-I've never felt youkai rage before. It was…too much for me." Kagome admitted while looking down. When she looked back up Sesshoumaru was right in front of her.
"You do not need to be ashamed. You're only a pup. It is normal to be overcome by youkai rage your first time." Sesshoumaru said. "Which is why I am adopting you into the Taisho family."
"What?" Kagome asked confused.
"I would like to adopt you as my sister. This way you'll be bonded to me and I to you. I can help you control your youkai rage. It's your choice though of course." Sesshoumaru said while looking her right in her cerulean eyes.
"Do you really mean it?" Kagome asked suspiciously.
"This Sesshoumaru does not lie." Sesshoumaru said monotonously.
"Then…yes I'd like that." Kagome finished with a smile.
"Good. Follow me. We will perform the ceremony now." Sesshoumaru started walking toward a door in the back of his office and Kagome had no choice but to follow. Much to Kagome's surprise, the door led to Sesshoumaru's bed chambers. This made Kagome slightly uncomfortable. I mean it's not like Sesshoumaru was ugly…he was the total opposite and Kagome had to admit when she first saw him she had an instant crush on him. Of course that crush never grew into anything more but she couldn't help but like to look at him. Snapping out of her thoughts, she watched him grab a small bowl. She then watched him walk over to a cabinet full of herbs and got some rosemary and sakura petals. He then went to a small wine rack and picked out a rich red wine. He set them down on a small table and added the rosemary and sakura petals after he crushed them. He then added the wine and called Kagome over to him.
Kagome slowly made her way over to him and gasped silently gasped when he pulled out a very sharp looking dagger. He held his arm out and slashed hid arm quickly, letting it drain into the bowl. After a small was added he pulled his arm away and wrapped it in a cloth. He indicated for Kagome to hold out her arm and was impressed when she didn't so much as flinch as he slashed her arm. She let her blood pour into the bowl before pulling it away and cover it with the cloth Sesshoumaru gave her. He mixed the blood in with the rest and when it turned a deep purple color he put it to his lips and drank half of it. She went to take the bowl but he pulled it away and brought it to her lips himself. He put the bowl to her lips and she took a sip. And gagged.
"Gah!! That is nasty!!" Kagome complained.
"You have to drink it all, Kagome." Sesshoumaru said patiently. Kagome grumbled a bit before drinking the rest. She made a face and wiped her mouth. She looked up and could almost see a ghost of a smile on Sesshoumaru's face. That was before the pain came. When it came it was unbearable. It felt like every inch of her skin was on fire. She started to stumble before Sesshoumaru caught her. She looked up to see his face as stoic as ever but she would tell he was clenching his jaw tightly. But it seemed that as soon as that agonizing pain came, it was over.
"What…was that?" Kagome gasped.
"It was your miko blood mixing with my demonic blood. In you, my blood could either be accepted or purified by your miko blood, obviously it was accepted. And in me, your miko blood could either mix with my blood or purify me from the inside out. I think you know which one happened." Sesshoumaru said.
"Wow…I think that's the longest sentence I've ever heard you say!" Kagome said in awe. Which Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes at. "Oh my Kami! You just rolled your eyes! You're showing emotions! Is this like a side effect of my blood?" Kagome asked curiously.
"Hn. It is. Just like my blood will help you control your emotions better so you won't succumb to youkai rage so easily." Sesshoumaru informed her before guiding her to the floor length mirror on the wall across from his bed. Kagome stared at the demoness in the mirror and a smile was brought to her lips. Her backwards white crescent moon flipped around and turned a brilliant royal blue color, though the tear drop stayed. Her cerulean eyes also gained gold flecks in them, making them that much more alluring. But she wasn't the only one with changes. Sesshoumaru gained a tear drop coming down from the royal blue moon on his forehead and his icy gold eyes gained flecks of cerulean, making them even more piercing.
"Wow…thank you so much Sesshoumaru!!" Kagome squealed and turned around to hug Sesshoumaru around the waist. He didn't hug her back but he did put one of his hands on the back of her head and stroked her hair softly, and that was good enough for her.
"You should go see how the monk is doing. You hit him pretty hard you know." Sesshoumaru said with a smirk.
"I would if he wasn't such a lecher! He deserved it!." Kagome said with a humph. Sesshoumaru chuckled before pulling Kagome away so her could look at her.
"Ah, I see. Maybe you should talk to the monk before cracking his head off walls. And he is found guilty then I will personally kill him ok, imouto?" Sesshoumaru asked in a very un-Sesshoumaru-ish way.
"I guess you're right, aniki. I'll go talk to him." Kagome sighed before hugging Sesshoumaru one more time and then making her way down to talk to Miroku. Hopefully without trying to kill him again.
