AN:OK I give in. It would be easier if I gave the plot a little push for you to get in the story a little more. This time I hope Fanfiction.net won't screw up my format and leave it how it supposed to be. But if this works I'll be happy again. Here is your second chapter.

Their I'm finally moving on to revise this chapter. It mostly will just be checked over and stuff fixed unlike the last chapter which I totally redid. That was a mistake but it just didn't fit with the story.

Chapter 2: Three Little Problems

There before her were two fire lizards, just babies judging by how small they were. They were about the size of an average house cat. The first was a shinny bronze color with orangish-yellow eyes, and the most beautiful one was a glimmering gold with sky blue eyes. There body structures were alike with long slender bodies and tails that doubled their length. They stood upon four legs with small talons at the ends of their toes of which would be deadly when they got older. Their heads were wedge shaped with large spiraling eyes. All together they were rather innocent looking for the deadly predators they would become.

Then the gold one looked at Kagome and started squeaking at her as if scolding her for hurting her siblings. Kagome just gaped at the small wonder.

Kagome couldn't believe her eyes these creatures weren't real they were supposed to be myths. Things from stories parents told you to scare. But they were sitting in front of her now as real as night and day. But what was really strange was she could feel their feelings and they felt frightened. Then she noticed they were shaking as the feeling of fear rolled off their bodies in waves.

Then as most woman do her maternal side kicked in. She couldn't help but feel sorry for them even though one almost killed her a few seconds ago. Kagome made a gesture of opening her arms "Come here little ones I won't hurt you," She beckoned.

There was no movement from them but then the small bronze one slowly made his way over to her. He paused and sniffed her with his tongue. As if satisfied with her he climbed into her lap and laid down.

Kagome now turned her attention to the gold one "Look I'm not hurting your brother and I won't hurt you," she calmly whispered. The oldest was more cautious then her younger sibling. It just looked at Kagome with a puzzled expression. She was hit with the feeling of suspicion.

"Fine if you don't want me to help you then I won't. She turned her head to the side and quirked a smile. If this tactic didn't work then what would. Suspicion eventually turned to fear most likely of being alone.

Kagome felt a nudge on her arm. She looked down to see the gold one looking back at her. Cautiously she slowly raised her hand and touched the top of it's head. Nothing happened so she went a bit further and started to rub the dragonlings eye ridge. A noise reverberated off the dragonlings throat sounding oddly like a cat's pur. "You like that don't you," Kagome said grinning.

"Now all you guys need are names." Kagome said joyously. The dragonlings gave her a look of pure puzzlement. Feeling the need to explain she said, "A name is something that you call someone by. So that you don't always get a whole lot of people answering your call at the same time."

The look of puzzlement slowly dimmed. " OK so I guess I can name you," she pointed to the bronze "Spark." He looked at her contentedly. She turned to the purring dragonling "You can be Goldie." Kagome in turn received a look of annoyance. " Kagome rubbed the base of her skull, "Then, I guess you can be Coal." Coal looked at her with her glimmering blue eyes. Becoming lost in the little beauties before her she lost track of time.

Kagome and the dragonlings sat in silence. Kagome occasionally stroking the young ones velvet like skin. Eventually the sun began to set casting pink streaks across the sky. Sighing Kagome said "We better go see how much destruction there is shouldn't we?" Kagome started to get up which was a mistake considering Spark was sitting on her lap. If you were in a 1/2 mile radius you would have heard a very loud and surprised squeak as he fell down.

"Oops, I'm so sorry Spark," Kagome said apologetically. Spark was only surprised so it didn't take long before he was happily in Kagome's arms again. She let a smile pass her lips. They were just so cute. With Spark in her arms and Coal on her shoulder she headed to her home.

When they reached the site where the hut and barn used to stand all they could see were piles of smoldering debris. Kagome looked over and saw her aunt still lying in a bloody heap. Kagome felt tears pick the backs of her eyes. She willed the tears not to come but they slowly squeezed through her tightly shut eyelids. Kikyou was the only relative Kagome had left, now their was no one. Kagome began the process of burying her Aunt. She said a quick prayer and went to find items that were still of use.

If you would have looked a them now it would have been a comical sight. One girl digging through piles of rubble and two young fire lizards throwing small pieces of debris at each other while running around the girl's legs. "Will you guys calm down you've been at this for an hour," She said exasperatedly. Sadly being so young and as disobedient as children can get, they didn't listen.

After a few hours of searching they had collected some odds and ends. The sun had almost gone down all the way causing what light they had to diminish. Kagome needed a place for them to sleep, so she scanned the clearing. Spotting a hallowed out stump she went towards it. It looked fine for the time being so she cleared out the dead leaves and laid down a blanket she had found. The dragonlings poked their heads through the hole. She beckoned to them and they curled up at her sides.

With the evening heat of late spring coupled with the dragonlings light snores, Kagome fell asleep quickly. Unbeknownst to the trio a gold locket lay forgotten amidst the wreckage.

Wow this is starting to get interesting I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you MoonFairy for being the only one to review the last chapter (I noticed a little while later that I had it so only members could review sorry). I expect at least 5 reviews for the next chapter. Please review I'd really like it. I wont have to pull out my evil fuzzy purple monkeys on you. MUAHAHAHAHAHA. Why are you looking at me that way? I'm not crazy I swear. Guys dressed in white come into the room. OK time for your checkup. NOOOOOOO!!!!
