(HIATUS!)

"I wish I was stronger," Kagome whispered into the night. "I wish I had someone who loved me for me," She pleaded to the stars.

Kagome starts to feel different; not just the normal, over-reacting different either. She starts to get these weird aches throughout her body, like it's rapidly changing from the inside out. Her eyes feel weird and everything starts to look more heightened. Her prowess has seemed to improve overnight. And what's this! Sesshomaru? What's he doing here!

A new threat has breached the peace left in the wake of Naraku's defeat. This time, it will be Sesshomaru who must propose an alliance to defeat an enemy he has no experience with, a death that claims humans and demons alike.
