Hey kidney's had stopped hurting long enough for her to go to sleep, and it was not the pain in her kidney's that woke her up.
Kagome sat straight up and without thought said his name "Sesshomaru" Breathless almost,
Sesshomaru was knelt beside her in no time, she had been so focused on something else that she had no even seen him move, or were he had come from.
"What is it" He asked, aware this problem was not her kidneys,
"I, I don't know, I feel it, but then again, it's not me feeling it"
"Miko, that make's no sense"
Kagome placed a hand one her belly, Sesshomaru eyed her hand, she rubbed her small belly. He soon followed suit, placing his larger hand on her belly, his hand was warm, the baby seemed drawn to it.
Kagome gasp "Its the baby"
Sesshomaru looked at her "She's scared"
He rose an eyebrow before looking down at her belly, focusing, he to now felt it, the baby was scared, her energy swirling and she was staying close to his hand, it made him prideful to know his pup already know him as the leader and protector.
His thought's were torn away when Everyone else entered the hut "It's the shadows" Inuyahas said, the woman all sat, the men all stood.
"I told you we should have left" Inuyasha snapped,
"Father"Sessho said looking at the door,
Kagome's breathing got faster "She's really scared"
"Who's really scared Inuyasha asked puzzled,
"The baby" Kagome said,
Inuyasha stepped close and was about to place his hand on her belly, earning an evil look from his own mate,
"If you wish to lose that hand half breed, touch her" He snapped, boy his blood was boiling and he didn't like the feeling.
Everyone looked at Sesshomaru, Kagome rose an eyebrow, he had said it quick and snappy.
Inuyasha backed away "What's your problem?"
"Do not touch her"
"Are you serious? what the hell Sesshomaru"
Sesshomaru growled,
"Guys" Snapped Sango's "Should we not be worried about the shadows?"
Yes, but once again Sesshomaru was on edge, but what would they do, they could barely see the damn things.
"I will aid ye" The old woman spoke,
"Oh yeah sure" Inuyasha said pulling out his sword, Sesshomaru and Sessho doing the same,
"Shall we go?" Miroku asked, they all nodded and stepped out of the hut.
Kagome was sweating, the baby, even only a few weeks in her womb, was moving all around. Kagome was only four months pregnant. Kikyo was showing more than all of them of course she was six months along and Sango five months along. Kagome was the only one to feel movement.
All the sudden the woman could hear Inuyasha yell his swords move, Sesshomaru was silent, and Miroku could also be heard.
"Let's move to the back" kikyo said, the girl's did just that.
"Kagome are you ok" No, she wanted Sesshomaru, odd enough.
"Sesshomaru" She whispered, little did she know, he could hear her, and it took every bit of his power not to go to her, he could not, not at the moment.
"Where are they miko"
"There" She pointed "And there, they are moving fast, there are six of them" She started to count, the number went from six to five "Have any of ye hit one?"
"No why!" Inuyasha snapped, trashing is sword,
"One his missing"
They froze,
One had gotten away, Sesshomaru knew in an instant what was about to happen, his feet could not turn fast enough.
Kagome stood up, hunched over "Oh, please calm down" She asked, she felt as if the little thing side her was going to come out. All the sudden a shadow flew in,
She screamed,
Sesshomaru was right behind it, there to catch her as the shadow flew, into her?
Everyone back up and Sesshomaru held Kagome,
"Miko" He snapped,
She cried out and his eyes turned red, her back arched, the pain was killing her. "Sesshomaru!" She screamed which only caused his beast too be angrier, he growled out, scaring everyone in the room.
"Sesshomaru both Miroku and Inuyasha said as they ran in"
"Back away" Kikyo stated, "His beast is out, do not go near her lease you lose your life"
No one was getting near her.
The shadow was in her, what was it doing? Kagome grabbed her mate's shirt "Sesshomaru" She said through gritted teeth, "It hurts"
He only growled, moved her neck and bit her on her mark, letting his demon power flow in her, but something happened that had not happened before, her miko power shot back at him and he removed his fangs from her neck, mad as hell he pulled on her hair,
"Mate"
"I, I can't control it" Not that he understood that in his state, "Move, away" She spoke between gasp, his red eyes not having any effect on her.
He growled at her, looking at her, "I can't, hold it, the shadow is forcing it out"
At her words he snapped out of it, his eyes turning white "Do not miko, least you hurt our pup"
A tear slipped down her eye "Don't you think I know that!" She snapped, but what could she do, was this the shadows plan?
No. Kagome gasps, and reach down at her tummy so small,
Sesshomaru flowed suit, "Your contracting"
"No" She rasped out "It's to soon, she wont make it!" Fear in every word, that was the shadows plan, to send her into labor, everyone gasp, she was only a few weeks pregnant!
"Sesshomaru, may I?" Miroku asked and everyone looked at him odd,
"No" he snapped,
Sesshomaru withdrew his hand at a sting of power "Miko" He snapped,
"I can't, I can't help it" She started to cry, "It my baby"
"Sesshomaru" Miroku said harder, he look at the monk "I may be of help"
He looked at him for a moment and before he could say anything Kagome grabbed the monks hand and placed it on her belly, red was bleeding back into Sesshomaru's eyes,
"Kagome, Miroku whatever it is you're doing, do it fast!" Kikyo stated,
Miroku looked hard, another contraction hit Kagome, her power surged, but one thing he noted, was when Kagome's power hummed, the baby's own demonic power surged, but not in a bad way.
"Do it Kagome"
Before he knew it he was being pushed back by Sesshomaru, he hit the wall. Kagome put her hand up, a pink power pushing Sesshomaru, in his blind rage, away from her, then with all her might, she forced her power out,
She screamed with it, the room went white and power made everyone's hair stand on ends. Once the light drew away the shadow flew out, it took only a split second for the red-eyed Sesshomaru to kill it.
