Tides Against Time: New Light
"Where is he?" Kikyo whispered as they waited in the shadows of the lagoon for Sesshomaru.
"I don't know…" Inuyasha whispered back as he looked cautiously around one of the boulders. "Maybe he got held up?"
"Did you try reaching him through your bond?" Kikyo asked as she patted little Alwar's back to keep him from fussing.
"I'll give him another five minutes. If he doesn't show up then I'll reach through the bond." Inuyasha said just as they saw two soldiers walk along the wall above them.
"Shh! Get down!" Kikyo whispered as she and her mate pushed their little newts under the water. They stayed under the water for at least three minutes before Inuyasha motioned for them to stay while he went to the surface. Slowly Inuyasha poked his head out of the water and scanned the courtyard and castle wall for danger. Seeing that the coast was clear he motioned for them all to come back up.
"Phew! Dat was cwose!" Axel whispered.
"Too close." Kikyo hissed growing more impatient and anxious as the minutes ticked by. "When did your brother start having soldiers guard the private yard?"
"I don't know. Must have started this year." Inuyasha said just as he saw a shadow beginning to form out of the darkness. "Someone's coming."
"Quick get down!" Kikyo hissed as they all hid back under the water.
Unsure if it was his brother or not Inuyasha remained hidden behind the boulder. Peaking around the edge he saw that the figure looked to be carrying something.
"Come out. It is safe little brother." Sesshomaru said as he approached the lagoon. When his figure came out of the castle's shadow the light of the moon caught his silver hair making him glow.
"Where the hell were you!" Inuyasha hissed. "We almost got spotted by two of your guards a minute ago!"
"Did you bring your mate?" Sesshomaru asked ignoring his outburst and gently sat down on the grass by the lagoon and carefully adjusted his precious bundle snuggled up in his lap.
"I'm here." Kikyo said as she and her newts came out from the shadows and swam up to the water's edge.
"Until Sess!" Axel cheered happily. His bright brown eyes shimmered like the stars and a warm smile lit his face. "We taught you wasn't comin!"
"What's dat?" asked Aninna as she and her twin sister approached the bundle curiously.
(*** Inuyasha OST 2 - Beautiful Memories ***)
"Something very special to this one." Sesshomaru said making Inuyasha's eye brow quirk with curiously.
"Well what is it?" Inuyasha asked as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"It smells… like flowers and… the ocean breeze?" Kikyo said as she sniffed towards the blanket.
"And a spring meadow…. " Inuyasha sniffed in agreement. "So what the hell is it?"
"Something that was lost but now found." Sesshomaru said as he gently pulled back the blanket close to his heart revealing a familiar angelic face to their eyes.
"(GASP) It… it it cant be!" Kikyo stuttered as she held onto Inuyasha's arm to keep from passing out. Her eyes were wide and her skin paled like the moon.
"She's pwetty!" Arewyna said as Axel and Aninna inspected the water demon who was held protectively in their uncle's arms.
"H-How?" Inuyasha asked as he shook his head to try and clear his vision to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
"We are not sure." Sesshomaru said as he watched his nieces and nephews gather around his sides to get a closer look at his mate. "She returned to the world one week after her death and washed upon the shore in France. Louie and Elizabeth found her. She didn't have any memories to bring her back to me. It wasn't until they choose to visit a few day ago that we were reunited and her memories returned."
"Who is she?" asked Aninna as she and her siblings looked down at the slumbering woman.
"She is my lost mate and your mother's sister." Sesshomaru said making the little newt's gasp.
"Weally?!" Arewyna beamed and clasped her little hands together in excitement.
"Hn." Sesshomaru nodded earing happy laughter and cheers from the little newts.
"Why is she sweeping?" asked Axel as he took in her pale complexion. "Is she sick?"
"She is." Sesshomaru said as he lightly ran his hand against her cheek.
"Sick?!" Inuyasha blanched as he and Kikyo snapped out of their shock. "What happened?"
"Over the years when her memories would make themselves known she would pass out and occasionally hit her head. Over time her skull has received permanent damage and is no longer healing. She passed out again this afternoon and hasn't woken up. My healer called in a specialists and…" Sesshomaru said as he tucked a stray hair behind her ear. "She has a tumor on her brainstem. The area is too close to her spinal cord to operate."
"Shit." Inuyasha cursed as he threaded his fingers through his hair.
"Let me look at her." Kikyo said as she set Aninna beside her brother and took her place at Sesshomaru's side. "Show me where they said the tumor is."
"Here." Sesshomaru said as he placed Kikyo's palm along the tender spot at the back of her skull.
It sat at the base of her occipital bone just above the junction of her spinal c1 atlas. It felt roughly the size of a golf ball but who is to say how large it was hidden inside. Spreading her healing abilities through her sister's body she examined the full extent of the tumor's energy and her breath caught in her throat. She closed her eyes at tears began to fall.
"Sesshomaru… she doesn't have a tumor." Kikyo said making everyone still. "It's some type of energy ball knotted up from her brain not healing properly. It's putting pressure on her spine like a tumor."
"Can you bweak it?" asked Axel anxiously.
"I don't know what will happen if I do. The brain is a very delicate thing. One wrong move and she could never wake up or be preeminently damaged the rest of her life." Kikyo said as she continued to examine her body. Then she caught onto something she hadn't expected. "GASP!"
"What is it?" Sesshomaru asked anxiously.
"The meadow…" Kikyo whispered as her eyes locked onto amber. "Do you know?"
"I do." Sesshomaru said as he gently pulled back the blanket and laid his hand over top of her womb. "It is our pup."
"PUP?!" Inuyasha squeaked before remembering to keep quiet. "When did this happen?"
"3 days ago." Sesshomaru said. "The special healer we had brought in said the pup will not survive the night with all the stress."
"We gots to do somefing!" Axel said as tears burned his eyes. "Mommy you gots to twy!"
"Axel sweetie… I don't know how to break the energy. I could kill her." Kikyo said as she brought the little newt into her arms.
"Could you try Kikyo?" Inuyasha encouraged. "My brother just got your sister back. By the sounds of it… well…. would you at least give it a go?"
"I-I don't know." Kikyo said as she looked between her husband and her slumbering sister. "What if… what if I make a mistake?"
"Her body has rejected my medical staffs herbs and remedies. Outside assistance has declined surgery. Her healing energies won't connect to mine. The pup is growing weaker as the night grows on. We are out of options." Sesshomaru said as he looked up from his mate to look into his sister-in-law's eyes. "You are their last hope before I have to watch them die and pray my sword can bring them back."
"Pwease Mommy?" Anninna begged as Arewyna and Axel looked up at her with quivering jaws and teary eyes.
"A-Alright…" Kikyo said as she took in everyone's pleading stares. "I-I'll try but please don't get your hopes up."
"That's all I ask." Sesshomaru said as he carefully lifted his mate from his lap and laid her onto the ground beside Kikyo with her head resting in Kikyo's lap.
"Let's give your mom some space ok?" Inuyasha said as he pushed Kikyo's bangs back and kissed her forehead. "You'll be just fine. Take your time and focus on what your doing. Don't worry about anything else. I've got the newts."
"K." Kikyo said as she passed him Alwar. She saw Sesshomaru sit on the steps behind her and her newts swim out into the lagoon to give her space.
"Now we have to be as quite as possible ok? Your mom needs to focus." Inuyasha said as he rocked his sleeping son in his arms and pulled himself up onto a rock besides the steps. "If you don't think you can be quite go and play under the water. Stay in the lagoon until I tell you different."
"Yes, Dad." Axel said as he and his sisters slipped under the water to explore the lagoon.
Having gained the silence of the night and not feeling the pressure of everyone watching her Kikyo took in a deep breath, sifted her fingers through her sister's hair and carefully cradled her skull in her palms. Closing her eyes she focused on the sound of Kagome's heart and her steady breathing. Feeling her aura and budding pup's she combed through them until she felt a tug. Honing in on that pull of energy she studied it from every angle and tested different spots in which was best to break it. Finding a soft spot towards the back she slowly seeped her healing energies into it and gradually let it leak. As the knot began to untangle itself a light blue glow began to spread over Kagome's body.
Sesshomaru having intensely observed the entire operation watched in fascination as his mate's body began to glow and change. Their little pup's energy immediately improved as well and seemed to be feed off of her bluish energy with vigor. Her heart rate slowed to a healthy pace and all the tension and stress that had built up in her body evaporated into thin air. The blue energy as it spread over her body made her porcelain skin shimmer and dance like stars. When they reached her blue markings along her body its soaked into them filling them with demonic energy. As the minutes ticked by a water drop marking appeared upon her brow. When Kikyo had at last released the last of the blue energy Kagome's eye's slammed open and startled blues looked up into happy brown.
"K-Kikyo?" Kagome asked in confusion. "What are you doing here and… why am I in your lap?"
Over joyed at seeing her sister and feeling no residual illness remaining in her body Kikyo just laughed and helped her sister to sit up. Pulling her into a tight hug Kikyo explained everything that had happened and Kagome over run with shock, relief and joy tightened her hold around her sister.
"Thank you! Thank you so much for saving me and my pup!" Kagome cried as she leaned back to wipe the tears from her eyes. "I don't even know what to say!"
"Don't worry about it. You are healthy and your pup is growing strong. I wasn't able to activate your healing properties in you head but was able to mend it to where you wont pass out anymore. I'm going to have to speak with some of the mermaids back in the cove to see if they have any ideas on how to repair your demonic healing. So don't go and hit your head ok?" Kikyo said as her little one's came up beside her and Inuyasha from behind. "We've been a little busy while you were gone!"
"I can see that!" Kagome giggled as she looked over the beautiful newts before her. "You must be Axel!"
"(Gasp!) How dids you know dat!" Axel asked in shock.
"I informed her." Sesshomaru said as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his lap.
The need to hold her in his arms burned through his veins. He needed to remind he and his beast of her being alive and well again. That this truly wasn't a nightmare but a dream come true. That their little one wasn't going to die this night but live and become a pup in a few short months. That their future together was growing closer and closer. Feeling her snuggling into his embrace and her nuzzling under his chin he welcomed her touch and tightened his hold around her.
"Let me guess… you're Annina and you're Arewyna." Kagome said as she pointed to the twins.
"Nope! Other way around. Annina has the white hair like mine and Arewyna has black like Kikyo's." Inuyasha chuckled as he settled his slumbering minnow into Kagome's lap. "I'd like to introduce to you for the first time, Prince Alwar Christopher no Tashio. Second heir of the Water Kingdom and future General."
"AWE! He's so cute!" Kagome cooed as she lightly ran her finger over his patch of black hair. "And chubby!"
"Indeed." Sesshomaru smirked as he took in his mate holding his nephew. It was like seeing her holding their future pup and it brought a softness to his eyes and a warmth within his heart. When little Alwar's eyes flickered open to reveal his father's amber and not Inuyasha's gold Sesshomaru turned to look at his brother with surprise.
"I know. They took me by surprise too." Inuyasha said as he crossed his arms. "I guess dad had to show up in one of our offspring sometime. Who knows maybe your pups will have his eyes too?"
"I hope so." Kagome said as she took in the little newt. "I love his amber eyes."
With Alwar's parents being their siblings he held a likeness that could pass for her and Sesshomaru's. He had black hair like hers and amber eyes like his not to mention facial structure. She couldn't help but think of the little pup growing inside. Would he or she look like this little minnow?
"I'm so glad I got to meet you all! Sorry to have made our first meeting traumatic like this. I have no idea how that knot got bunched up like that." Kagome apologized as she and Sesshomaru doted over Alwar.
"Well if it happens again we know what to do." Inuyasha said as he leaned forward and kissed Kagome's forehead. "Its good to have you back Kags."
"It's good to be back. So tell me! How's it been being King of the Water Kingdom? How was your first migration?" Kagome asked as she passed Alwar back to Kikyo and leaned into Sesshomaru's chest.
"It started out pretty rough. We went to war right after you left us. The Ice Lord wanted to kill Toran, their unborn youth, banish Ryura, assassinate our family and then take over as King. We thankfully were able to take them out before that happened. His son Ryura is now in charge of the Arctic tribes and he and Toran seem to be doing well. They have three minnows now and their eldest daughter has a crush on Axel."
"Oh really?!" Kagome giggled making Axel blush cutely. "Well don't worry little one. You have plenty of time to figure all of that out. So what happened after that?"
"We traveled south two days later to our nesting grounds and had peace for almost a year. Then there was a rebellion in Alijabbar. Bankotsu's younger brother split the city's allegiance while he had been aiding us against the Ice Lord. It took us another 6 months to put it back together. It was after the rebellion took a fatal blow towards the end is when they surrendered. So many lives… wasted." Inuyasha sighed sadly as he ruffled Axel's bangs. "I missed a lot of Axel's first year during that time."
"What happened to Bankotsu's brother?" asked Kagome curiously.
"He was executed for murder." Kikyo said as her chin began to quiver.
"Kikyo?" Kagome asked cautiously.
"Kagome… there was an accident." Inuyasha said as he pulled his mate into his side.
"What?" Kagome asked just as she felt Sesshomaru's arms tighten around her slightly.
"Father and Sota were killed." Kikyo sniffled making Kagome cover her mouth with her hands and tears fill her eyes.
Inuyasha sighed sympathetically and said, "We were swimming through the King of Thieves Valley on our way to scout out the rebels when we were attacked. During our battle some rebels hidden on the valley slopes knocked some rubble loose. There was an avalanche…"
"Oh gods… " Kagome wailed as she buried her face into Sesshomaru's shirt.
"We lost 200 mermen that day." Inuyasha said. "When word spread about your Old Man and brother passing away every loyal able water creature came to our aid. It only took a couple more weeks to end everything and to capture Renkotsu. After that the Water Kingdom has been at peace. However, there is a growing issue you need to know about Sesshomaru."
"And what is that little brother?" Sesshomaru asked as Inuyasha reached into Kikyo's seaweed bag and pulled out a thin metal wire.
"Your fishing grounds are being destroyed by this stuff. It's everywhere and the sea floor is broken and battered. When we were traveling through the bay it caught on someone and nearly sliced her tailfins off. It took me four swings from Tensiga to cut it."
"Four?" Sesshomaru asked in surprise as he inspected the wire. "I do not recall giving permission for such supplies to be used in our bay. I will bring it before the court at once. Is the harbor truly in such a state?"
"It is. When we were swimming through it yesterday every single crab box was loaded with bate but not a single crab was seen and little to no fish were swimming in the bay. If you don't regulate your fishing grounds more strictly there will be nothing left for you to fish. If this keeps up soon the east side of Spain won't have fishing networks and you will have to import your supply." Inuyasha said making Sesshomaru's brow darken.
"It will be take care of." Sesshomaru said just as Annina and Axel yawned and Arewyna rubbed her eyes sleepily.
"I think its time for us to depart." Kikyo chuckled as she took in her newts. "We'll be sure to come and visit some more during out stay at the cove. Be sure to bring Lorenzo next time. We'd love to see him."
"Sounds good. He was supposed to join us tonight but... well anyway. We'll be sure to bring him next time." Kagome said before pulling little Annina and Arewyna into a hug. "I'm so happy I got to meet you all!"
"Us too!" Axel said as he too took a hug from his new aunt. "Will you come and pway wif us on da beach sometime?"
"Perhaps." Sesshomaru said as he watched Kikyo hug her sister.
"We'll see yah around." Inuyasha said as he and his family waved goodbye before disappearing into the murky water bellow.

Alone at last Sesshomaru lifted Kagome's chin and captured her lips in a heated kiss. Overwhelmed by his passion she moaned against his mouth and closed her eyes in bliss. His beastly growl rolled against her side and he held her possessively against him. His lips were firm against hers and their tongues knotted together. The combination made it impossible to separate. The sounds of air puffing through their noses as they tired to breath and her little mewls against his lips intensified the growing need in the air. Carefully sitting up in his lap without parting their connection she threaded her fingers into his hair and straddled his lap. Now face to face, heart to heart and body to body the energy between them was electrifying.
Fisting one hand into her hair he angled her mouth and deepened their kiss. As her delicate fingers gripped his shirt and held on around his neck her lean feminine legs clung to his hips and stirred him to rise. Kneading her backside with his large hand he rocked her harshly against him and growled against her lips. Only dressed in her nightgown her flower quickly soaked his pants and had them both and moaning and panting from the sensation. Feeling a cold breeze blow through the courtyard a shiver ran her spine and trembled in his arms. Pulling the blanket around her shoulders he held her close and offered her his warmth. No longer sensing her discomfort he reached between their grinding flesh and thrust two fingers into her aching womanhood.
"AH!" Kagome cried as she felt his fingers reach deep inside.
Being released from her lushes lips Sesshomaru grunted against her neck as his cock and fingers continued to torture her lower core. Feeling her tightening inside he entered a third and then a fourth. Fucking his hand and feeling his thumb and cock grinding against his clit had her crying out his name to the heavens above and spilling herself onto his awaiting lap. Hearing his bitch declaring herself of her love for him to the world had him bursting at the seems of his pants and pride gleaming in his hooded gaze. Pulling his fingers from her quivering flesh he licked them clean of her essence before returning them between them to unfasten his pants. Kagome having come down from her high realized that they were still out in the open and anyone, including Sara could catch them at any moment. Feeling his cock preparing to part her sensitive folds she stilled his hand and rest her forehead against his as she tried to catch her breath.
"Someone… could have… heard us." Kagome whispered as she forced her eyes open to look up into his. "Sara… could come."
Groaning against the junction of her neck and collarbone he stilled his pursuit. He knew she was right but gods he wished it were different. He wanted to declare to the word that she was his. That he at last had his lost mate back and she was whelped with his pup. That she had been healed and they could have sex as much and as rough as they wanted! He wanted to howl into the darkness and sing under the stars and make love to her for hours on end. To imprint their bodies into the soil until the sun shone high in the sky. He wanted to make love to her as nature intended upon the soft grass and in the open air not caring who saw. With the building pressure within his cock he knew this round of rutting wouldn't take long. He was too riled up and the adrenaline pounding in his veins stirred him into action. But damn it! He knew they couldn't. He and his beast knew they would have to take her fully under the stars another night. He hated waiting…

"This isn't over…" Sesshomaru said huskily as he fixed his pants back together and looked up into her shimmering ocean blue eyes.
"Good." Kagome panted before kissing his lips once more in a loving kiss. "Will you stay with me tonight?"
"Forever." Sesshomaru said as he carefully got up, settled her in his arms and took off on his cloud into the evening sky.
[Valencia, Spain]
Tonight had to been one of the loneliest, most awkward, irritating nights of her life. It was obvious that Louie and Lizy were enjoying sharing romantic stories and moments around Valencia from their youth. However, she couldn't help but feel like a burden to them the entire time and a third wheel during their obvious intimate reminiscing. She could see it in the way they looked into each other's eyes that they wished to be alone. How they would purposefully brush up again each other whenever they could just to fluster the other. They would brush hands occasionally with lingering caresses, bump shoulder to shoulder as the walked. Would sit close to where his arm could wrap around her waist or shoulder or give her the chance to place a hand on his thigh or resting against his chest. She knew they had forgotten she was there a few times after witnessing them share a few too many kisses on the gondola boat and even a grope or two during their walk around town.
They had asked her if she was fine but she shoved it off with a smile. What kind of a host would she be if she made her husband's friends fell unwelcomed? When it was finally time to return to the castle she had to keep herself from showing too much relief. As the carriage pulled into the main entryway she noticed that much of the castle's candles were still lit and that it had not been turned down for the evening. Perhaps her husband's meeting was lasting longer that usual? If that was the case she hoped Mrs. Sango was able to put Odette and Lorenzo to bed on time. Coming to a stop the servant opened the door and Louie stepped out to help them exit with their long skirts. When she stepped down from the carriage she could have sworn she heard her a woman's voice calling out Sesshomaru's name upon the breeze.
(*** Inuyasha OST 2 - The Swordsmith Toutousai ***)
"Cock-a-doodle-doo! Cock-a-doodle-doo!" Louie sneezed as he whipped out his handkerchief from his breast pocket. "I do apologize Lady Sara. Sometimes the dust from the road irritates my beak."
"Oh! Th-That's quite alright." Sara blinked in surprise. "Are you alright now?"
"I believe so." Louie said as he sniffed to clear his sinuses and rubbed his handkerchief over his beak shaped nose. "They normally come in threes."
"I see…" Sara said as she took in the information uncertain. She could have sworn she heard her husbands name and only two sneezes; not three. Perhaps she was hearing things? It would make sense to have three sneezes instead of... She didn't wish to think of the other possibility. "Well... thank you for allowing me to take you around the city. I must turn in for the evening and check on my son."
"No! Thank you Lady Sara for taking the time to show us around. We truly enjoyed the evening." Lizy said as she leaned into Louie's chest as he wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Glad to hear it." Sara said with a fake smile. "Rest well. I shall see you both in the morning."
"Goodnight Lady Sara." Louie and Lizy said as they went their separate way from Sara. Once they felt Sara was far enough down the hall to not hear them they released their pent up breaths and Louie cursed under his breath.

"What the hell is that dog doing to her?" Louie snarled as he and Lizy made their way toward's their private chambers. "Doesn't he realize she is dying?"
"Perhaps that is why we heard her calling his name." Lizy said with a blush to her cheeks. "Good save by the way. Who knew your morning call would sound so much like his name."
"We got lucky for now. I don't think Lady Sara completely bought my act." Louie said as they came to her door and knocked.
"Rin?! It's us. Are you dressed?" asked Louie only receiving silence. "Rin?"
"Why isn't she answering?" Lizy asked in confusion.
"I don't know! But I sure as hell don't want to see Sesshomaru's naked hairy ass again." Louie said making Lizy choke.
"Well what do we do? She isn't answering! What if its not what we think and she was calling for help?" Lizy said as she nibbled on her lower lip.
"Shit…" Louie said as he took a deep breath. "Well… there is only one way to find out."
"Rin? Rin honey are you alright?" Lizy asked as she and Louie peaked around the door cautiously. Seeing the bedroom empty with the patio door swinging in the wind they both instantly feared the worst.
"RIN?!" Lizy shrieked as she and Louie frantically scanned the room and bathing chamber for her. "Where did she go?!"
"I don't smell any signs of struggle or fear; just Sesshomaru's distress and her sickness. I know he wouldn't have left her side with her in such a state for any reason." Louie said as he continued to sniff the air. "Their smell goes outside."
"Why would he take her outside?" Lizy asked as she and Louie looked out the Patio doors and up to the moon above. "I thought the healer said for her not to be moved under any circumstances?"
"He must have had his reasons." Louie said as he held Lizy close to his chest as tears threatened to pull from her eyes. "I know if you were leaving my side I would want the privacy."
"I can't even bare to think about it." Lizy whispered as she tightened her hold around his waist.
Sensing her growing distress and moved by her love for him Louie lifted her chin and clamed her lips in a tender kiss. The smell of her tears mingling with her rose petal lips had him softening his touch and deepening their kiss. This little woman had stolen his heart the moment they had met. The thought of losing her was unthinkable and it made the back of his throat sting. Suddenly feeling Sesshomaru and Kagome's aura's approaching they decided to leave and give them the privacy of her chambers. Quitely slipping out the door they crossed the hall into their's and pulled each other into a loving embrace; thus picking up where they left off. Having felt Louie and Lizy in Kagome's chambers Sesshomaru slowed his descend until he felt them leave.
When Kagome heard his boots settle down on the patio stones outside her door she threaded her fingers through his silky silver hair and gingerly lowered his lips to hers. As they kissed she felt him walk into her chambers and lower her back onto the bed cushions. Wanting to feel him against her she began to unbutton the fastens on his shirt as he kick off his socks and boots. Having undone enough on his shirt he pealing it up and over his head revealing his upper body chiseled with hard muscle and exotic magenta markings to her eyes. Feeling her delicate fingers brush against his skin and skirt over his nipple had him quickly stripping her night gown off of her and his pants forgotten on the floor. At last away of wandering eyes, unwanted distractions, illnesses to consider and clothing between them Sesshomaru become one with Kagome and they made love well into the night.
(End of Chapter 61)
(Yay! Kagome's going to be ok as long as she doesn't hit her head hard again. Hopefully Kikyo can find a cure to fix what's wrong. However, only time will tell! Be sure to follow along! More chapters to come!)
