Kagome had been walking threw the closet when she suddenly felt a feeling of familiarity. She knew exactly where she was going and that's when she saw it, a small red velvet covered box. The outlining was in gold and upon opening it she found a vile of blood and a letter addressed to her. However right before she could reach for it and open it the orb she had sent out in search of Inuyasha arrived and left him in the bedroom, soon his voice was heard.
"Kagome?!" he called out franticly, wanting nothing more than to see her and make sure that she was okay.
"Inuyasha!" she called happy while running toward her mate out of the closet and into his arms.
"Are you okay?"
"Yea, for now."
"What do you mean?"
"I found this in here and it's addressed to me. And this room…it feels so familiar." She admitted worriedly. Upon looking at the letter and the hand writing on it Inuyasha's eyes widened in shook.
"What?"
"Kagome you can't open that letter until Sesshomaru finds us. The queen wrote this letter herself, it's her handwriting."
"What?! Why?!"
"I don't know but I do know we have to get out of here."
"I've already tried to get out but the door is locked and…." But before she could finish the door swung open and in walked Sesshomaru, Rin, Sango, Miroku and Sango's parent's squad.
"Sesshomaru than god. Listen we need permission to open this." Inuyasha said only to watch as Sango's parents bow before Kagome.
"Sesshomaru?"
"Later Inuyasha but first Kagome must follow us."
"No!" both teens protested wanting answers right there and then.
"As you wish then, open the letter."
"But lord Sesshomaru" protested Sango's mother only to watch as the letter was opened and unfolded. As the two teens' read the squad surrounded the room and Sango's mother and father guarded the door.
My dearest Kagome it you are reading this then my vision came true. Please forgive us, we never wanted you to live like this, to learn of your true nature and origins this way but it seems that this is the only way now. I don't, we don't have much time so please read carefully and try not to panic. The blood in the vile you found is a mixture of the kings and I. That blood will awaken your own blood, I'm sorry my dear, I love you so much and that is why now you must know. You are not a witch but the princess of all vampires and only heir to the royal family line as well as our precious daughter. Once awakened you will have all your witches power enhanced and the power of our family as well. I love you so much and that is why I must warn you, now is your turn to rule our kingdom, our home, lead well, be strong and live happy. Now my darling for the warning, do not drink our blood and awaken your own unless your heart truly wishes it for if it does not then you will lose complete control over who you are and what you are doing. The thirst will consume your soul now think wisely and rule strongly, we love you Kagome, so much.
Love Mom.
Kagome finished reading her apparent mothers note fully crying as she did it all. How could this be? She was just an outcast, a lone witch who had no true family and nowhere to go or to belong. Then a familiar vamiric aura was felt. Sango's mother had finally released her true signature at long last. Then in a tear stained face Kagome shot her head towards her and cried even harder.
"You! You took me away from them!" She yelled. By that time Inuyasha had taken hold of her, hugging her and trying to comfort her broken heart, allowing no one to go near her.
"Princess you must stay within the palace walls." Spoke Sesshomaru first causing everyone to freeze and Inuyasha to glare.
"You knew?!"
"Calm yourself Inuyasha."
"No! How could you, all of you put her through this?!" he demanded while on the brink of his breaking point. Upon noticing this and his red eyes Kagome stopped her tears and hugged him back. 'I can't be weak, we can't.' she thought strongly as Inuyasha began to calm himself. Kagome's face calmed that instant and erased any and all signs of the tears that had been staining her face.
"Sesshomaru?"
"Yes princess."
"I am incharge until we find my parents aren't I?"
"Yes."
"Then it's settled. Take four squads and surround the palace, I want Sango and Miroku to stay by me and my mates side at all times unless told otherwise. The guests?"
"They're still in the ball room, awaiting orders."
"Then ask them to stay a while longer for the heiress of all vampires of the royal family will be unmasked."
"As you wish." E said before turning with the top squad and disappearing. Rin however stayed behind a bit longer with a smile on her face.
"Yes Rin?" she asked all the while Inuyasha stood frozen in his spot, amazed at what she was doing and how fast she had reacted to such responsibility.
"I just thought that you'd want to know that your royal gown is in your old closed, the silver one." And with that she disappeared as Sango and Miroku stood bowing before Kagome and Inuyasha.
"Stand up, you're still our friends."
"So then are you really?" questioned Miroku
"Yes now listen up I need for both of you to stand guard in front of my door, no one and nothing is to come in no matter what." She said so seriously that is shocked them both, leaving them completely speechless.
"Done." And so with that the doors were closed and the young teens left alone. Inuyasha looked her over, not sure if he should still act so freely with her because of her discovered truth.
"Don't, don't hesitate Inuyasha." She answered warmly with a smile.
"Huh?"
"I can feel it, you're still my mate and we can act as we please when left alone." She stated with a slight blush on her face.
"Feh, then can we play?" he questioned with a grin on his face.
"Sorry but no." 'But I promise later.' She said only to send out a better response fall of passion and warmth. Inuyasha was about to sneak up on her changing form when she stepped out of the closed only to call the vile holding her parents blood and hide it deep within a cloaking spell.
"What is it?" he questioned but before Kagome could tell him he heard Sango and Miroku arguing with a man outside.
"Stay here, drink the blood if you really want to but just stay here." He warned before exiting the room and appearing right in front of the evil lord.
"Stand down Lord Onigumo." He said as Sang and Miroku stood down.
"Why prince Inuyasha how are you this evening? Well no matter, if you'd excuse me I have a young witch o meet."
"No one is allowed inside Onigumo now take your leave."
"You are no lord young prince and thus you cannot command me. Now all of you step down." He warned while revealing a blade only to cause Miroku o raise a fire shield. Inuyasha was about to fade away and take Kagome with him when h, when all tree heard her voice. 'Stand down. I'll take care of this; Sesshomaru is also on his way.' And with that all four turned toward the slowly opening door.
All the while Kagome stayed in the room she couldn't help but pace back and forth. 'I should drink it, I have to.' "Of course I do…don't I?" 'Only if I truly wish it.
"Of course I do, don't I? I mean I'll be able to be with Inuyasha for eternity without growing a day old until we hit millennia." She thought and talked to herself only to realize at that moment that she not only wanted to but had always wanted to be a vampire on one level or another. Kagome ten quickly revealed the vile that had been left behind for her and stared at it. 'Yes this really what I want.' she thought before that intoxicating feeling that lay within her flared up again as the shikon no tama, the jewel of blood was in her hand again. Her hair grew in length as her silver locks appeared and her eyes soon faded into a deep amber only to leave her dark chocolate center's to stick out. She drank the vile of blood that instant only to feel the power within her and how strong it was. She was so strong now that she knew not how to use it yet and yet had complete control over it all. Her long silver gown then suited her every aspect. Then she felt him and his evil presence. Immediately she called for Sesshomaru and reached out to Sango, Miroku and Inuyasha. 'Stand down, I'll take care of this; Sesshomaru is also on his way.' she send out before reaching for the door and hiding not only the jewels power but existence as well.
