^^ thank you for the reviews, I sometimes wonder if I even should put in an
authors note, I do if only to show that I am reading the revews and such,
right now the only thing that you should worry about is that I may have
trouble continuing this story. Rest assured that I will finish this, it
just might take awhile. As you will see, it is starting to wrap up, I will
leave it open for a semi sequal, maybe showing their children.
NOTE: SESSHOMARU ONLY NEXT CHAPTER!!

Ashleige and Inuyasha arrived at the well house, waiting for them was Lost Star, watching and waiting patiently. Ashleige simply glanced at him and perched at the side of the well, looking down into it.
"Will force work?" she asked looking down into it.
Lost Star shrugged "It works by will, not force. We have faced trials greater than that."
Ashleige sighed, with a slight smile "It would be nice to see those days again."
"Nostolgia? From you? You are showing your age Ashleige."
Ashleige shrugged again "Not all of us have the serenity and support that you have gained, Star."
Lost Star looked at Ashleige with something indecipherable in his eyes."Ashleige?"
"Permit me that one moment of weakness."
"Always." Lost Star replied, giving a small smile.
With this she jumped into the well, passing through it without an effort. Inuyasha in this exchange had kept quiet and watched. He knew they were old, they dropped hints their entire stay, and he was forced to wonder briefly how they worked through those years. He had the same thing to look foward to, and at times it had scared him, but with Kagome, he could deal. He approached the well, stopping next to Lost Star.
"You are not coming back." Lost Star commented.
Inuyasha was startled, looking at Lost Star "Feh, is it that obvious?"
Lost Star shrugged "Not really, you are approaching the final few battles, good luck."
Inuyasha looked up. "One of these days I want to know how old you are."
"Good luck, we will meet again."
Inuyasha nodded, jumping through the well, for the last time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------
Ashleige was sitting at the god tree when Inuyasha appeared, an uncharacteristic expression on her face as she looked up through the branches. As Inuyasha approached she got up and waited for him to lead the way. Not wanting to disturb her strange mood he simply motioned to her, leading the way to the town. The trip was silent, Ashleige's mood going back to normal as they approached. Kagome came out to great them.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome smiled "You have a way to help the kittens?"
Inuyasha gestured to Ashleige who grinned and shrugged at Kagome's amazment. Ashleige walked into the hut, ignoring the others as she went to the kittens. They had their fur, having grown it in a matter of hours, and they did move around, but they were rather weak. Ashleige simply sat down, taking one out of Kaede's hand. This had stunned everyone, being rather surprised at the entrance.
"Inuyasha who is she?" Oichi being the first to recover.
Kagome answered "Her name is Ashleige, and be carefull around her, she is stronger that Inuyasha."
Ignoring Inuyasha's angry tirade Miroku got up and approached her. "Greatings dear lady, my name is Miroku." Bowing low, he faced her and continued. "And might I ask you a very important question?"
Ashleige paused in caring for the kitten to look Miroku straight in the eye, giving him an icy glare. After a second Miroku decided better of it and went and sat down. Sango and Oichi look curiously at Miroku, who shuddered slightly. They then looked at Kagome who shrugged. Inuyasha shrugged as well.
A speck began to jump toward the house, going increadably fast for such a small size. Reaching the house it jumped into it, totaly ignoring the other inhabitants. It screamed out as it got near.
"Lord Inuyasha!!! Lord Inuyasha!!!"
"Myoga, what is it? Stop yelling!"
"But my lord this is serious!!"
"Well what is it?!"
"The gates of the neatherworld have been breached! Fearsome demons are preparing to enter this world."
"What, have you gone insane?!"
Ashleige finished speaking to Kaede about caring for the kittens, they should be fine with he proper caring. A bonus was Kaede's miko powers, they could be used to strengthen them. She looked up at the flea's warning. Grabbing her compacted sythe she got up.
"I have always wanted to be part of this battle, looks like I get the chance."
