Chapter 19:

The next day came quickly for the both of them. Kagome stretched as she put her things in their bag. Sesshomaru just stood waiting to ask his next set of questions. When Kagome finished and had her bag in place she began to walk and this is when Sesshomaru began his new line of questions.

"What does the magical well have to do with your home?" He asked while looking ahead of them.

"The well is, was a portal to five hundred years into the future." She replied.

Sesshomaru knew there was more to the well but never thought it would be anything like that but it all now added up. Her strange clothes, the way she spoke even the way she acted. He figured the other things she didn't tell him he would have to get out of her later for now he would do what he could to help her break through the cold that seemed to ice over her. During this time the Kamis could see that things weren't moving along the way they wished. Kagome hadn't broken through to the way she once was, and was just as cold if not colder then the lord that traveled with her. On her travels she killed demons and humans alike that stood in her way. It was only woman and children she didn't kill. She no longer cared as she once did of others. She had no issues of killing now as she once did. This scared the Kamis more as her powers grew. They knew if they didn't do something soon she could very well be the world's destruction. In a last ditch effort to save their sister and their creations they made a choice and could only hope for the best. In Inuyasha's forest lay a man, no youkai that was loved and feared by all. The Kamis could only hope that with his help Kagome's heart could once again melt to the loving and caring being she was before Naraku's death. Kagome and Sesshomaru arrived at the castle by night fall with Rin waiting at the entrance to greet them. Running forward Rin hugged her mate to be before greeting Kagome. Kagome in return nodded her greetings before asking a maid to show her to the library where she could read the night away. Sesshomaru looked at Rin wondering how she went from being his ward to being his mate to be. Yes he had only had her for a few years but never saw her as a daughter. He could only figure this had to do with the age he found her at and how fast she aged. For demons to age as she did it would have taken ten times as long. Shaking it to the bad of his mind he gathered Rin to him before placing a kiss to her forehead. "Go rest mate, I will see you in the morning." He told her when they reached her bedroom. When the door closed he headed to his own room to rest as well.
