Chapter Twelve: Taiyoukai Problems
If you guessed that it was Sesshomaru, you are correct. Sesshomaru was spying on Kagome as she fought with Orochimaru, hidden in the cover of the trees. He masked his aura and his scent, to prevent her from realizing he was there.
Frankly, he was wondering, or had been wondering, ever since she'd thrown him off when Inuyasha betrayed her. Where did she get such power? Was it even her? Many questions rang through Sesshomaru's head and gave him a headache, so he went to watch Kagome to relieve himself of his ache.
What he'd found out wasn't what he expected. Apparently the human wench had a fox sealed within her body. The mate to the brother of the oldest, most powerful being in existence: The Juubi Fushicho.
He saw her collapse out of exhaustion and refused to help her. He was here to observe, not to take away someone's virginity as well as his own. Many females had tried to get him to bed her, but he flat out refused.
Hmph, why am I here at all? Shouldn't I hate all mortals and half breeds? I must be going insane…no, I must be curious. Yes, that should be the answer. Sesshomaru turned his attention back to the unconscious girl. A red aura was leaking out of her body, healing her and making a barrier to protect her while she rested.
Sesshomaru turned away and disappeared into the trees. He would come back later, when he felt up to it.

When they felt that Orochimaru was dead, Naruto and Sasuke were almost bursting with joy. Sakura was happy that Orochimaru wouldn't take her Sasuke-kun anymore, but she was still jealous of Kagome. Tsunade could finally relax knowing that her evil teammate was dead. Kagura and Kanna were worried for Kagome.
A few minutes after Sesshomaru disappeared, they came upon Kagome. Naruto, Sasuke, Kagura, Kanna, and Tsunade looked horrified. "Kagome!"
Sakura pretended to show emotion when in reality she hated her. An evil plan formed in her mind. Tonight when she is asleep, I'll come and kill her by thrusting a kunai in her heart. Then Sasuke-kun'll be mine forever! Inner Sakura laughed and settled down to wait.

Kagome came to a while later. "Where am I?" she rasped.
Sasuke's heart leaped when she awakened. Naruto rushed forward and hugged her, which instantly made him filled with envy and jealousy. "Kagome-neechan! You're okay! That stupid Orochimaru didn't hurt you, did he?"
Kagome smiled and said gently, "No, the stupid snake bastard didn't touch a strand of hair on my head." She hugged him back, smiling at Tsunade, who was behind them.
"Hey, Kagome-chan, are you sure you're all right?" she asked, worry laced into her voice.
"I'm fine, Tsunade-chan. Orochimaru wouldn't dare to try to touch the likes of me, especially since I destroyed him with my pure powers," Kagome replied, noticing the relief coloring Tsunade's eyes.
"I can't believe he was once my trusty teammate, in our childhoods," Tsunade said sadly.
"I'm sorry, but he got what he deserved," Kagome said, moving Naruto off her lap and standing up to gather the older woman in a friendly embrace. Tsunade cried into Kagome's shoulder.
"W-when we were children, I fell in love with him! But when he betrayed Konoha, I was left heartbroken. When Kyuubi attacked, I fled, not knowing what would ever happen to anybody. In my wandering days, I met you. But you were only seven," she sobbed.
Kagome patted Tsunade and said quietly, "Cry all you want, Tsunade-chan. It's all right, he's dead. Please let go of your memory of your childhood. Orochimaru is gone and nothing will bring him back. Not even Jiraiya knows what Orochimaru does."
Kagura and Kanna watched with relieved hearts, Naruto with a joyful expression, Sakura with the utmost contempt, and Sasuke with a tinge of jealousy and happiness.

"Sesshomaru-sama! Can Rin go see pretty Lady Kagome?" pleaded the small girl by Sesshomaru's side. "Please?"
Sesshomaru sighed. A few hours back, he'd been observing Kagome, but when in learned of it, she begged him to go see her. But then Jaken had to but in.
"Stupid, child, do you not understand Sesshomaru-sama's hatred for humans?" he squawked. "He hates you, too, he just doesn't show it…"
That's how far Jaken got with his tiny speech. POW! Sesshomaru punched Jaken forcefully. He so did not hate Rin. She'd wormed her way into his cold heart, breaking through each and every barrier.
"Jaken, understand that you are a lowly servant, and I consider Rin my daughter, so that makes her place higher than yours," Sesshomaru stated coldly.
Jaken's eyes turned as big as saucers. "Sesshomaru-sama, would you really consider a lowly human as your daughter?" he squawked.
"Shut up, Jaken," said Sesshomaru. He started walking a bit faster.
Rin almost felt like crying when Jaken said that Sesshomaru hated her, but didn't say so, but she enlightened when Sesshomaru said he considered her his daughter. "All right, Rin, if you insist, we can go see Inuyasha's girl," Sesshomaru said.
"Thank you so much, Sesshomaru-sama!" Rin said happily.

They were back in Konoha. They had been freed of the snake bastard Orochimaru. Kagome herself had slaughtered Inuyasha, Kikyo, and Naraku as a bonus. Now that all my enemies are dead, what'll I do now?
"Kagome-chan!" screamed a girl's voice.
She turned around only to be glomped by a happy little girl. "Rin?" she questioned. "What're you doing here?" Rin looked up and smiled widely.
"Sesshomaru let Rin see pretty Kagome-chan!" she squealed.
"Sesshomaru?" She looked at the two headed dragon Sesshomaru stood beside.
"Kagome! Get away from those demons!" yelled a villager.
Kagome looked at the and said, "They are not dangerous if you don't threaten the guy with silver hair. If you do, he'll get mad." She walked closer to Ah Un and Sesshomaru. "Hello, Sesshomaru."
"Hello, priestess," he said stoically. She ignored his lack of knowledge on her name and merely set Rin down comfortably on Ah Un.
She said, "Nice seeing you, Sesshomaru." Kagome walked away and disappeared into the streets. Sesshomaru turned Ah Un around and disappeared into the forest.
She's different from before…what is that scent? Oh no, now I recognize it! She's in heat! Sesshomaru's arousal spiked, but he hid it from Jaken. Rin, of course, could not sense it, thus he was safe.
Sesshomaru couldn't help, but be attracted by Kagome's heat scent, like any other male that could smell it. He fought for control as they walked further and further away. The naughty scent disappeared from his nose and Sesshomaru was able to breath.
He knew that Kagome would attract some unwanted attention, so when he left Jaken to guard Rin for the night, as well as Ah Un, he went to Konoha to keep watch secretly over the one person he knew was in heat.
Sesshomaru was right, a boy with demon-like eyes and spiky black hair with a canine was following Kagome. She headed to the forest in the middle of the night! What was she thinking?
He soon found out when Kagome stopped at the edge of a river. She squatted down on the riverbank and dipped her pale hands into the cold, rushing water. The night clouds parted, revealing a whole white moon.
Moonlight fell on her slim figure, raven locks gleaming from her shoulders. She began to sing in an enchanted melodious voice:
"My son, my daughterMoonlight hast befallen us.
The period before dawn shall rise
And with it a new king.
Lords, heed my words
Your blood is steeped in the hands of time
Your soul is bound to the depths of hell
Your body shall perish
When the lady of midnight
Comes seeking your precious spirit.
Go forth now,
Save thyself
From the terrible fate
Burdening your heart.
Light be my mother
Dark be my father
Wings from an angel
Sing now, forever lost shall we be.
A touch, enough for me
Awaken now, my Lady
My Lady Dawn."
She finished singing and leaned forward, the tip of her nose barely skimming the water's surface. Why am I me? I'm not beautiful…just another girl without a sense of beauty. She sighed. She couldn't understand why she was living.
Kagome reached up and started taking off her clothes. Sesshomaru's eyes widened as he tried to conceal his arousal. The other boy couldn't resist, and jumped out. But instead of screaming, she grabbed the boy by the scruff of his jacket and hissed sharply, "What the hell do you think you're doing here, you little pervert?!"
As she picked him up, Kiba got a full view of her breasts, and he couldn't contain himself. He started to drool. Kagome noticed what he was staring at and got angry.
"You…sick…little…perv!" she screamed, throwing him across the river. He crash-landed through a few trees, his mind foggy.
Kagome was so angry that her aura flared out, spreading over Sesshomaru. Her senses buzzed a warning that another male was near, but familiar. "What do you want, Sesshomaru? Surely you could control your instincts better," she asked, covering herself up again and turning to face the hidden taiyoukai.
"Miko, do you not notice? You are in heat, attracting unwanted attention. Next time be aware of the center of your problems," Sesshomaru said, turning away and heading into the forest.
He began to replay her song in his mind, but he stopped at the words "Your blood is steeped in the hands of time." What did she mean? And why was there a fate like a burden on his heart?
"Hmph, confusing woman," he muttered, rejoining his group a moment later.
