Chapter twelve: Questions.

It was midday when they finally started closing into the western lands. They had left her time in the early mornings; they had a long trip ahead of them. Kuzii waited silently with the long goodbyes. The next time she would see her family would be after the birth of her pups and it would take some time to be able to travel with three. Kagome walked side by side with her mate the sun fluttered over head with the wind tickling their skins. How it was a nice day to travel it was neither too hot nor to cold. It was perfect to travel in, it allowed them to cover much more land in short amount of time.

Kagome wouldn't of noticed Kuzii sudden change of his mood if she didn't feel a tight hand yanking her back. His hand engulfed the tiny hand of his mate pulling her back to his body. Kagome waited, trying to feel any threat, none yet she could feel something coming closer. Was it this thing putting Kuzii on edge ?

"I don't think it means any harm , whatever it is" Kagome mumbled waiting for whatever it was to come to them . However it did not make Kuzii calmer.

Kagome did not see it, but Kuzii did. A flash of white came from the tree line, engulfing his tiny mate. The light was too bright, causing Kuzii to stumble back. It was Kagome's soul, it was stitching it's self together . The beautiful light danced around Kagome, as two forms became one. As the light slowly dyed down the light re entered the tiny human. It was a rather large soul yet it fit into her perfectly. It was almost too late when Kuzii caught Kagome from smashing into the ground. She had passed out when her soul left her body for a few moments, Taking her in his arms he took off for the west. He knew it would be some time before Kagome came too.

'Damn it Sesshomaru.' Kuzii cursed the lord to the high heavens, knowing his father was smiling from above.

It was night time when she had awoken in her room. She felt fine, she felt whole. All she remembered was white lights, she remembered what that light was. The last time she seen it was when she split her soul with Kikyo. Was she with her whole soul once more? That only meant Kikyo was dead.

'Why would Kikyo die? Inuyasha watches her as if she was a god walking on earth. He would give his life before harm fell on her..Kikyo ..what happened?'

Kagome was left with that question, little did she know she would soon find out. She pushed herself from the bed, her feet met the cold wood of the floor. Sliding softly she left her room in search of Kuzii. It was not long till she found her mate, in all places the kitchen snacking on what seemed to be some meat.

"Why are you up ? You should still be sleeping?" Kuzii looked back at his mate. He turned back to the food he was cooking and roaming around time to time to grab some things he needed. Kagome took her seat at one of the small tables to her left.

"I feel fine, I feel better than ever, as if I am whole again." Kagome smiled, she caught the clenching of Kuzii's shoulders. She knew now he knew something, it wouldn't take her long to get the answers she needed.

"You wouldn't know why I feel like this, do you?" Kagome teased, only a little she did not want to upset him. Just enough teasing would get her point of knowing across. Kuzii's face gave it all away he looked as if he was a small child caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

"Yeah.." He puffed, filling two cups of tea he moved to sit in front of her. Sliding the cup softly so it would not spill all over the clean table. Kagome's brow twirled up waiting for her answers. It was easy to get Kuzii to talk, very easy.

"You see Kagome, When you gave Kikyo half of your soul so she could keep walking this earth. That was fine, it left you weaker but it was enough for you to carry out a normal human life. Since you are with pups by a strong demon male, you are no longer fending for yourself, you have three others that are not human. Demons need much more, and you were going to pass without your other half. Me and Sesshomaru had talked about this, before he took another mate. I guess Sesshomaru while we were away ended the life of the dead miko, in return of her life being taken you were once again returned with a whole soul." Kuzii watched her emotions flicker across her face. She had no clue what to make of this why would Sesshomaru do such a thing for her now when he was mated to someone else? What about Inuyasha does he know? How is he feeling?.

So much had ran through Kagome's mind, she sipped her tea with a clouded mind . Not knowing she had already drained the cup.

"Oh I see, Well I have a lot to think about. I shall be back, I am going for a short walk."Kuzii didn't stop her, pity filled his eyes as he watched her leave the room into the half lit halls of the castle. He knew what she must be feeling, and what she must be thinking after all of it. He was not the one to help her with this, only one man could.. And she was heading right for him
