I'm back! I'm so excited for this chapter here we go!
That next morning the six travelers felt less tension between each other, it was as if a great fog had lifted from the space between all of them, maybe it was when they all risked their lives for each other when Kikyo attacked them that previous night, or maybe it was when the truth about The Celestial Relics was told. Either way the group felt a little more comfortable around each other than before.
"Lady Sango, something seems to be troubling you, are you alright?" Miroku asked the worried looking demon slayer as she held Kirara in her arms while Shippo lay sleeping on Kagome's shoulder who was walking up ahead alongside Inuyasha.
"I'm fine, it's nothing important…" The demon slayer trailed off looking away from the monk.
"If something is bothering you then it is 'something' important. I know I'm not as close to you as Kagome and Kirara are, but I'm happy to assist you in any way I can" the monk promised as he patted Kirara on the head as she purred in Sango's arms.
Sango was silent for a moment before speaking. "My father died recently… and he told Kagome he didn't want her to use her sun powers to heal him… he claimed that he was ready to rest in peace, but before he died he asked me and Kirara to protect Kagome and… to live a strong life… the slayer said softly as she held Kirara close as the neko let out a comforting 'meow' as she nuzzled Sango's neck.
Miroku looked up at the woman walking beside him even with all her rage and fighting spirit, she was still the most beautiful woman in the world in his eyes. "I'm sorry for your loss, your father sounds like a fine man from what you say, I think I would've liked him" the monk said in a soft comforting voice.
Sango turned to Miroku. "Yes, he was a wonderful man, he was the one who trained me to be a demon slayer…" she trailed off, thinking of all her happy memories with her father.
"And he did a wonderful job, you are indeed a strong woman Sango, but that's not the only thing on your mind now is it?" Miroku questioned patiently.
Sango then looked up at Kagome and Inuyasha up ahead to see that the two were secretly glancing at each other while the other wasn't looking.
Miroku saw how worried Sango looked and patted her on the shoulder gently. "Fret not my friend Inuyasha is a wonderful man, well half man that is, I think he could make Kagome very happy if given the opportunity" the monk reassured.
Sango gave him a nod but her worried expression remained. "Kagome has never fallen in love before, and I'm happy for her but she is The Sun Spirit's daughter, her destiny will most likely be more important than anything she may want, which isn't fair. I may not know entirely what Kagome's destiny is but I can already tell that it will be very big, so big that she may not even have room in her life for me or Kirara and the three of us grew up together like sisters" Sango said sadly.
"I know you want to protect Kagome, but she is not only The Sun Relic you know, she is also a person who wants to live, laugh, and love just as much as anyone else does" said Miroku.
"I know, I just wish it wasn't so hard to let go of our little sister…" Sango trailed off and she hugged Kirara close again while the neko nuzzled into her shoulder.
"I know it is, but no matter where Kagome's fate takes her your life goes in a different direction, and you won't ever be alone Sango, I know we haven't been friends for very long, but I'm happy to help you whenever you need it" Miroku promised.
Sango blushed. "T-thank you, Miroku" she said softly.
Kagome smiled as she glanced at the scene behind her for a few moments. "Only a matter of time now…" she thought to herself gleefully, but suddenly her thoughts were cut short when Inuyasha jumped in front of her growling as he took out his Tetsusaiga and pointed it at the path in front of the group.
"What is it?" asked Kagome.
"I smell something approaching us, be on your guard" the half demon demanded, his grip tight on his sword.
"Huh, what's going on?" Shippo asked softly as he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.
"No time to explain Shippo, get ready for a fight!" Sango replied sharply as she and Miroku both took a fighting stance while Kirara growled and transformed into her larger self after jumping out of Sango's arms.
That was when the group saw what was charging at them; a pack of wolves!
"Look out!" Sango yelled as she flung her boomerang bone at the vicious wolves, knocking some of the ones in front away only to have more and more gather around to help the others.
"Let's move!" Miroku shouted as he, Sango, Kirara, and Inuyasha charged and fought back against the wolf pack while ordering Kagome to stay behind them while Shippo stood in front of her ready to protect her if necessary.
"We have to help them, Shippo!" The Sun Miko pleaded, but the little fox demon shook his head upon her request.
"No way Kagome, please let us protect you!" he said, not even bothering to look back at the miko… but if he had he would've seen the whirlwind speeding up behind Kagome...
"A demon aura-?" Kagome thought as she started to turn towards what her miko powers had sensed, only to stop short when the whirlwind reached her and screamed. "INUYASHA!" the Miko yelled at the top of her lungs as the whirlwind picked her up and swallowed her whole while knocking Shippo to the ground flat on his face.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha and Sango shouted when the whirlwind passed them and the wolves they were fighting.
"Take care of the rest of them!" a male voice coming from the whirlwind demanded as the whirlwind itself then vanished in the distance.
"No!" Inuyasha yelled as he lost sight of the whirlwind.
"Inuyasha, look out!" Sango shouted as sidekicked a wolf away from the half demon who was shaking with rage.
"I'll kill that bastard who took her… I"LL KILL HIM!" He yelled at the top of his lungs as he then used his sword to knock away all of the wolves in his path, killing them instantly as he tried to follow the same path the whirlwind took, but Miroku grabbed the dog eared lord to stop him. "Let go Miroku!" Inuyasha demanded.
"No you have to have a plan my lord, you saw how easily Kagome was taken, which means it will be harder to save her!" the monk stated as he kicked a wolf corpse in his path away.
"He's right, all of the wolves here are dead. So now is the time to come up with a plan. Did you pick up a specific scent in the whirlwind when it took Kagome?" Sango asked Inuyasha while Kirara transformed back into her smaller self and stood upon the demon slayer's shoulder.
"Well I picked up the scent of a wolf demon, we could follow it wherever it's taking Kagome" Inuyasha offered.
"Then let's do it!" Shippo cheered as he jumped onto the half demon's shoulder.
"Kagome I will find you, I promise!" Inuyasha thought to himself.

Kagome woke up to hearing voices in deep conversation in the distance.
"What, where am I?" Kagome questioned but then she gasped when she realized her quiver, bow, and mandolin were gone! "Hello, where did everyone go?!" The miko called as she got up from the futon she was lying on. She looked around to see she was in some sort of cave-like chamber. "Wolf demons, I can sense a lot of them, gathered up in the main cave…" The Sun Miko trailed off in thought as she peeked into the main part of the cave from beyond the entrance to see the many wolf demons she had sensed.
"Prepare the feast and someone guard the entrance to our cave. I want my wedding ceremony to be perfect and I don't want any trespassers!" a male voice shouted among the crowd.
"Someone is getting married?" Kagome whispered to herself only for the crowd of demons to turn to her.
The Sun miko froze in fear.
"Oh you're awake, that's great" said the male voice as the wolf demon crowd let the speaker himself pass.
Kagome nearly gasped, standing before her was one of the handsomest man she had ever seen; he was a wolf demon, that much was certain, his long black hair was in a high ponytail, he had pointed elf like ears, he wore navy armor, and he wore a brown wolf pelt around his waist, and he had a brown fluffy wolf tail and wolf fangs. Finally his eyes were a deep blue that reminded Kagome of the paintings of the sea she had hanging on the walls of the temple back at home.
"Um, I'm sorry, who are you?" Kagome asked the handsome wolf demon before her.
"Oh, right where my manners, I am Koga, leader and prince of the wolf demon tribe, and from this day forward I will be your husband and mate," the wolf demon stated confidently.
Well that certainly wasn't the answer Kagome expected to hear! "I'm sorry what?" The Sun Miko asked in a bit of a shaky voice.
Koga smiled as he took both of Kagome's hands in his own in a loving way. "As the leader of the pack I have a right to choose my bride and mate and from the moment I saw you on that cliff late last night… I knew… Kagome you are meant to be my mate" the wolf leader stated as he kissed one of the mikos hands.
"I… um… look I... it's very nice that you want me to be your mate, but I made a promise to someone that I would-" Kagoem started but Koga cut her off.
"YOU'RE ALREADY ENGAGED!? He barked angrily.
Kagome's eyes widened. "WHAT?! Oh I-" The Sun Miko started only to have Koga cut her off again.
"I knew it! It's that albino mutt isn't it!?" he exclaimed.
"Wait, you mean Inuyasha?" Kagome asked…. Not aware that her cheeks were turning red.
"So you are in love with that stupid mutt face!" Koga confirmed… but then he chuckled. "Well that doesn't really matter, I'll kill him even if he does try to take you from me"
Kagome frowned at his words. "You'll never be able to kill Inuyasha, he's stronger than you'll ever be!" she spat angrily.
"Whatever, even if he does come for you we'll be mated so there won't be much he'll be able to do" Koga stated smugly. "AYAME!" He then demanded making a she wolf demon with high red pigtails, green eyes, a grey wolf tail, and a purple iris in her hair come forward. "Prepare Kagome for our mating ceremony, it will take place at sunset," Koga said.
"Yes, alpha" Ayame as she then took Kagome's hand and led her into another cave chamber. "Come on my lady" the red head urged softly.
As Kagome let Ayame lead her, she noticed a great sorrowful expression on the wolf girl's face. "Are you alright?" Kagome questioned.
"I'm fine" Ayame replied quickly, she didn't even bother to look back at The Sun miko behind her. "Let's hurry and get you ready for your mating ceremony with Koga…" Ayame said in an almost forced way.
)())(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
After Ayame colored Kagome's lips and cheeks, she began to comb her raven hair. "Your hair is very beautiful." Ayame said kindly.
"Thank you…" Kagome said sadly. "Am I really going to end up marrying Koga? Inuyasha, Sango, Kirara, Shippo, Miroku… Please hurry and save me…" The Sun miko thought to herself.
"Do you love this Inuyasha?" Ayame asked suddenly.
Kagome stiffened and blushed. "Um. How did you know about Inuyasha?" she asked.
"I heard Koga mention him before. So do you love him?" Ayame questioned firmly.
"Um… Well I prefer him over Koga if that's what you mean." Kagome answered, her blush rising even more. "Why do you- Oh…" Kagome stopped, realizing why the wolf demon asked in the first place. "You're in love with Koga, aren't you?" the Sun miko asked, though she already knew the answer.
Ayame gave a single nod. That's when Kagome noticed a tear slowly making its way down Ayame's cheek.
"Please don't cry, here." Kagome said kindly as she used a white handkerchief to wipe away the wolf girl's other tears as she wrapped an arm around her. "I'm sorry, I'm the last thing you needed at this point… How long have you loved Koga?" The Sun Miko questioned softly.
Ayame looked at her. "It was long ago. I wasn't the strongest of fighters. Koga was the only one who believed in me. And eventually I became stronger thanks to Koga's uplifting. I was able to become a skilled protector in the pack… Koga is the reason I am strong. That is just one of the many reasons I love him…" Ayame trailed off sadly. "But that doesn't matter anymore-" Ayame started but Kagome cut her off.
"Yes it does. You love Koga and I don't. He doesn't love me either, he barely knows me. I-" Kagome started but stopped when Ayame covered her mouth with her hand.
"I have a plan if you don't want to stay here. What do you say?" asked the wolf girl.
Kagome looked up at her as she uncovered her mouth. "What? You'll help me escape?" The Sun Miko questioned.
Ayame nodded. "I thought I'd hate you for stealing Koga from me but… You've been very kind to me and you are clearly in love with someone else so I will help you escape." the she-wolf demon promised.
Kagome smiled and hugged the wolf girl. "Thank you Ayame…"
)()()()))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
"Hurry up with those flowers, I want a tiara made for Kagome!" Koga ordered two young female wolf demons who were next to a small pack of mortal wolves who were all asleep.
"KOGA!" a tall one-eyed broad wolf demon barked from beyond the wolf demon leader.
Koga then turned to see one of his men holding onto Kagome in one arm and Ayame in the other.
"I found these two trying to escape," the wolf demon said.
"Let us go!" Kagome demanded.
"And they took these back" the demon said, ignoring Kagome's rant and showing her quiver of arrows, her bow, and her mandolin on his back.
"Those belong to Kagome!" Ayame shouted as she freed her arm from the wolf demon holding her and now only Kagome, captive and punched him in the gut; hard.
"GAH! You wench!" The demon groaned as he then released Kagome and her belongings while taking out his samurai sword. Ayame took out hers too, as the two wolf demons then began to fence. "Prepare to die, traitor!" the male demon threatened.
"You wish!" Ayame retaliated as she blocked everyone of his strikes.
"Ayame, hang on!" Kagome shouted as she then picked up her bow and an arrow from her quiver and shot the male wolf demon, grazing his shoulder.
"YOU'RE A MIKO!?" The male wolf demon and Koga asked at the same time.
"Yes, I am you'll all let me and Ayame leave with our lives and I won't purify this whole cave!" The Sun Miko threatened as she pointed her next arrow at Koga, who only snickered.
"I think you're a little over excited my Kagome-" the alpha started but Kagome cut him off.
"I am not nor will I ever be yours, EVER!" the miko shouted.
"KAGOME!" all in the cave, heard Inuyasha shout as he flew into the cave with Kirara and his sword in hand.
"What the- WHOA!" Koga shouted as Sango flung her boomerang bone at him as he was quick to dodge the attack at the last second.
"Kagome we're here!" Miroku yelled as he fought off a few wolf demons in his path alongside Sango, while Inuyasha and Kirara flew to Kagome's side, landing next to her.
"Kagome, are you hurt?" The dog eared lord asked as he pulled Kagome onto Kirara's back.
"N-no, I'm fine, really… Well I'm a little shaken up after Koga over there tried to force me to marry him-" Kagome started looking at Koga who was fighting Sango, only to be cut off by Inuyasha.
"WHAT!?" He bellowed, making everyone in the cave go silent.
"So you came back for 'my' Kagome huh mutt face, well I hate to break it to you but you've been replaced… by me"Koga stated smugly after he sidekicked Sango away from him and launched himself towards Kagome, only to have Inuyasha punch him in the face.
"Try that again and I'll hit you with Tessaiga!" the dog-eared lord threatened as Koga got back up only to have Shippo pop out from behind Inuyasha and throw a smoke bomb at him. Koga coughed as the smoke cleared, only to see Kirara getting away with Inuyasha, Kagome, and Shippo.
"Take that you kidnapper!" Shippo shouted from Kirara's back.
Oh yeah…?" Koga trailed off as he ran past his pack who were fighting Miroku and Sango, jumped up with his strong legs and kicked Kirara in the side, pushing her and those on her back out of the cave… and into the fresh night sky…
"Oh no!" Kagome gasped as she took only a moment to acknowledge the dark sky and then rushed over to Kirara who was on her side in pain.
"Kirara! Are you okay, can you get up?" The Sun Miko asked in a concerned voice as Inuyasha was fighting Koga a little farther away and while Kirara herself tried to get up only to limp heavily while trying to walk.
"I'll heal you old friend, don't worry" Kagome reassured while lying her hands on Kirara's injured side, completely unaware of the events that were now taking place on the moon….
()(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((())))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
"Kikyo, I am not going to repeat myself; you will have to destroy The Sun Relic before the solar eclipse on your birthday tomorrow only then will the world belong to the night" Naraku told Kikyo,who still had a burn scar on her face from Kagome as she was bowing before her father, along with a crowd of beings made completely out of solid shadows.
"Yes father I understand, I will indeed destroy The Sun Relic. I have a plan. Please lend me your shadow army, with the night present they will be able to fight" Kikyo said.
Naraku pondered his daughter's request, as his red eyes glittered with evil and his black hair twisted on its own.
"Very well, my daughter, you may take the shadow army, but be warned; I created you and I 'can' destroy you if you fail me enough times" The Moon Spirit warned darkly. "Now go,"
"Father," Kikyo said, bowing her head to her father one last time before taking her leave with the shadow army following close behind her.
"Destroy me eh? Ha! Don't make me laugh father, you know of my destiny and like it or not there is no escape from it for me … or Kagome..." Kikyo thought to herself.
)())))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))(((((((((((((((((((((((
"How do you feel Kirara?" Kagome asked the twin tail after she used her healing powers on her feline friend.
Kirara then nuzzled Kagome's side and smiled, making her large fangs seem bigger, but this of course didn't frighten The Sun Miko, she was more concerned about Inuyasha, who was still fighting Koga.
"Kagome, you have to hide before Kikyo gets here!" Shippo exclaimed, trying to pull Kagome back into the cave, but she only shook her head.
"It's too late Shippo, look" The Sun Miko said pointing to the full moon's light that was shining on the edge of the cliff…. Where Kikyo was now standing, with her sword in hand ready to put up a fight and with a confident look on her face.
"And now dear sister, you will die…" The Moon Miko declared darkly as she ran over to Kagome, who took out her bow and used it to fence with her twin.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha and Koga shouted together when they saw the two sisters fighting each other.
"Who the hell is that?!" Koga demanded as he and Inuyasha ran to help Kagome.
"Kagome's evil twin, she's from the moon, and wants to kill Kagome, I'll explain the rest later, we have to help her!" Inuyasha exclaimed.
"Kill Kagome…? NOT WHILE I'M ALIVE!" Koga shouted as he ran ahead of Inuyasha and side kicked Kikyo in the face away from Kagome.
"You mutt! How dare you, does everyone who comes in contact with my sister fight for her?!" Kikyo questioned as she got back up.
"Yeah and maybe it's because unlike you, Kagome isn't out to hurt people but instead helps them!" Inuyasha shouted as he began to fence with Kikyo, who merely smirked.
"You really are stupid…" Kikyo trailed off as she then whistled and within that next moment a small but good amount of the shadow army appeared behind her. "ATTACK!" She ordered, making some of the shadow soldiers charge at Inuyasha while the others went after Kagome, Koga, Kirara, and Shippo.
"Kagome we have to get you out of here!" Koga insisted as he tried to pull Kagome away from the action, only to have her force her hand out of his.
"No way, I've had it with people fighting for me, I'm going to fight too!" Kagome shouted as she picked up her bow and tried to run over to help Inuyasha with Kikyo, only to have two shadow soldiers grab her arms. "LET GO!" The Sun Miko demanded only to see that when they touched her, both of the shadow soldiers burned and withered away. "What? But I didn't do any-" The Sun Miko started only to see Koga kick away another shadow soldier coming up behind her.
"Kagome what's going on? I have to know if I'm going to protect you from that bitch Kikyo and her army!" Koga said as he fought off more of the soldiers.
Kagome sighed there was no way out of it. "Koga I am The Sun Relic and my twin Kikyo is The Moon Relic, Kikyo killed our mother and I want revenge, while she just hates me and wants me dead" Kagome explained.
"Okay I'll admit I was not expecting that, but it doesn't matter," Koga said as he punched another shadow creature. "After these idiots and your twin are dead we'll have our mating ceremony and-"
"STOOOOOP!" Kagome shouted at the top of her lungs, masking everyone on the cliff freeze at what they were doing. Kirara and Shippo looked up from the shadow soldier they were beating up and even Inuyasha, Koga, and Kikyo looked up at The Sun Miko.
"I'M NOT MARRYING YOU KOGA… I"M IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE ELSE!" Kagome admitted.
"WHAT!?" Koga and Inuyasha shouted as their eyes widened.
"I knew it…" Shippo stated dully as Kirara nodded in agreement.
"How sentimental… It makes me sick!" Kikyo spat as she then charged at Kagome with her sword ready while Inuyasha was distracted… but when she struck she ended up hitting not Kagome but the wolf demon who had thrown themself in front of her…. Ayame.
"AYAME!" Kagome and Koga shouted in terror.
"You fool" Kikyo snickered as she tried to strike Ayame again only to have Koga try and side kick her again to which she dodged the attack.
"AYAME!" Kagome screamed as she caught the wolf girl who was holding on to the wound of her chest in pain.
"I- I'm sorry Kagome, I think it's safe to say I am leaving you…"Ayame trailed off her breathing becoming very soft.
"YOU BITCH!" Inuyasha shouted as he began to fence with Kikyo once more, giving Koga the opportunity to rush to Ayame's side to hold her hand.
"Forgive me Ayame, I couldn't save you" he said, mournfully squeezing the wolf girl's hand.
"Koga, it may not matter anymore but because of you I was able to live a strong and happy life… and not a day will go by where my love for you will die… I love you Koga" Ayame trailed off as her breathing became slower.
Koga had no words; all he could do was hold Ayame's hand close to his heart while regret and pain formed in his sky blue eyes.
"I can save her there's still time" Kagome said in a reassuring voice, she didn't even wait for Koga to respond she simply put her hand on the dying wolf girls' chest wound and began to chant;
"Flower of the sun gleam and glow,
Let thy power shine make the clock reverse,
Bring back what once was mine,
Heal what has been hurt change the fates the fates design,
Save what has been lost,
Bring back what once was mine…
What once was mine..."
Kagome trailed off as a golden light shone from her eyes, hands and the sun seed around her neck, the light causing the blood on Ayame's chest to fade and the wound to close up. When Kagome stopped chanting, Ayame regained consciousness and her breathing returned to normal.
"Koga, Kagome?" The wolf girl questioned as she sat up completely fine.
"AYAME!" Kagome and Koga shouted as they then hugged their friend close.
"How am I alive?" Ayame questioned, confused.
"I healed you with my sun powers" Kagome said as she and Koga released her.
"Sun powers?" The wolf girl asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I'll explain later we have to stop my sister before she hurts anyone else" Kagome proclaimed pointing to Kikyo who was still fighting Inuyasha.
"That crazy woman is your sister?!" Ayame exclaimed in shock as Koga helped her up.
"I said I'll explain later we have to do something!" Kagome shouted.
"Maybe we can help…."
Kagome then turned to see Sango coming out of the cave with Miroku following close behind her, both looking more than a little roughed up.
"What happened to you two?!" Kagome asked in a worried voice.
Sango and Miroku then turned to glare at Koga, who was still holding onto Ayame.
"While me and the fair Sango were able to defeat the wolf demons in the cave I'm afraid the fight has left us quite tired" Miroku stated a little breathlessly.
"Kikyo's arrived I see," Sango said growing at the scene of Kikyo and Inuyasha fighting.
"Sango, Miroku!" Shippo shouted as he and Kirara flew over to the two who had come out of the cave after taking out the remaining Shadow soldiers.
"Are you two okay?" Sango questioned.
"Yeah we're okay, but I think Inuyasha could use some help with Kikyo" Shippo said pointing to the dog eared lord who had just been knocked off his feet unconscious by The Moon Miko.
"NO!" Kagome shouted as she ran to Inuyasha's side ignoring Sango's pleas to stay put.
"Oh how adorable dear sister, you're willing to die for this pathetic ugly dog-" Kikyo started but Kagome cut her off.
"SHUT UP! All you do is kill and hurt people, Kikyo why, why do you do this?!" The Sun Miko asked angrily, making Kikyo smile wickedly.
"I'm simply enjoying my life before it is time for me to return to my rightful place, and You'd do well to do the same Kagome, since our time truly is almost up…. Well at least my time is longer than yours since tonight will indeed be the last one you'll ever see…" Kikyo trailed off, giving an evil chuckle.
"Wait, what do you mean, before we return to our rightful place?" Kagome questioned.
"Hm, funny I thought you would've known by now. Tomorrow marks the day of our eighteenth birthday and-" Kikyo started only to stop when Ayame side kicked her in the back, getting her away from Kagome.
"Leave her alone you ugly wench!" The wolf girl gritted as she then pulled out her sword getting ready to put up a fight, only to have Koga beat her to the punch by standing in front of her protectively.
"Ayame, you and Kagome get out of her and find some place safe to hide, NOW!" the wolf demon leader demanded as he turned back to Kikyo only to see a sacred arrow hit The Moon Seed around her neck.
Kikyo then cried out like a banshee as she held onto The Moon Seed, which now had a small dark crater in it.
Kagome lowered her bow in shock as her twin sister then started to cough up silver dust.
"Why you little-!" Kikyo hissed as she tried to lunge at Kagome only to be cut off when Inuyasha pushed her away from The Sun Miko, hard.
"Damn it, this time I was so close…" Kikyo trailed off angrily knowing she had been defeated and that her army had been destroyed as she ran back into the moonlight and floated back up to the moon.
"She retreated again…" Miroku trailed off as he was still trying to catch his breath.
"Yes but it seems like this time Kagome really was able to do something serious to her," Sango said as Kirara transferred back into her smaller self and hopped onto her partner's shoulder.
"KAGOME! INUYASHA!" Shippo cried out running over to The Sun Miko and The Dog Eared Lord. "Are you guys okay?" the little fox demon asked in tears.
Kagome smiled softly as she hugged Shippo close. "Don't worry Shippo we're fine, please don't cry" she reassured… however The Sun Miko knew her words were really a lie for her part…. "What did Kikyo mean by "before we return to our rightful place, what's going to happen to us tomorrow on our eighteenth birthday….?" she wondered to herself.
"Kagome are you okay?" Inuyasha asked, noticing Kagome's thoughtful expression.
"Oh… I'm fine" she lied.
"Well then, if all that shit is done, I think you and your group have some explaining to do Sun Princess," Koga said, crossing his arms, while he and Ayame stood in front of Kagome, Inuyasha, and Shippo.
"Why you…" Inuyasha growled as he then put his hand on his sword's handle ready to take it out, but Kaghome put her hands on his to stop him, and looked up at Koga and Ayame.
"You two may want to sit down for this…." she trailed off.
Ha Ha! I love myself for the dramatic effect on my stories! I hope you like this one and see you next time!
