Chapter 2: Enter Sesshomaru, Explaining A Demon's Light
By InuShemeeko

Sango gasped and ran toward Kagome as she was knocked to the ground.

"Kagome!"

Just as she was about to reach out to touch Kagome, a cool and soft voice stopped her.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

Sango, Miroku and Shippou turned to find Sesshomaru standing behind them. He seemed to be impressed by what had happened here. Yet his eyes showed nothing. Sango reached for her boomerang that was attached to her back.

"Sesshomaru. What are you doing here?"

Sesshomaru smirked as he walked toward the spell bound Inuyasha.

"It would seem that my foolish half brother has once again let himself be sealed by that witch again. Sesshomaru's piercing gold eyes looked down at the clay remains of Kikyo, then over to the motionless Kagome who lay on the ground.

Sesshomaru could tell that the two humans and the small fox demon were questioning him with their eyes.

"I suppose you are wondering why I warned you not to touch her? I myself am wondering the same thing."

His golden eyes widened as he watched the golden light as it pulsed away around Kagome's body. What caused his sudden surprise was something he had not seen before. The light of the half complete jewel had been too bright. He could now see the red flecks inside of the golden light that was surrounding the girl.

'That is impossible. He is nothing but a half-breed.'

**********************************************************

Miroku watched as the dog-demon lord grew quiet as he looked over at Kagome. Complete shocked could be seen written on the dog-demon lord's face.

'Something about that golden light around Kagome seems to have alarmed him, but why?'

********************************************************************

Miroku's voice bought Sesshomaru from his thoughts as he slowly turned to face the monk and his friends.

"Sesshomaru. Explain to us why we can not go near Lady Kagome?"

Sesshomaru smiled to himself, the fear that was coming from them was laughable. However, he knew that they had a right to fear him and that was how it should be.

"I see no reason why I should explain anything to the likes of you. However, I will show you instead."

Sesshomaru picked a rock from the ground and threw it toward the miko that lay on the ground. Miroku and the others gasped as they watched the golden aura reflect the rock back at Sesshomaru. Miroku couldn't believe what he had just seen.

"What kind of magic is this?"

"It is no magic, you foolish human. It happens to be the doing of my pitiful half-breed brother."

Sango managed to speak to Sesshomaru now that her shock had worn away.

"I'm not sure I understand. How can that be Inuyasha?"

The winded whipped Sesshomaru's hair around him as he looked down at Sango.

"Foolish woman, I never said it was Inuyasha himself. Only a part of him."

Sesshomaru sighed as he stared at the two humans and demons that stood in front of him. He still didn't understand why he had been drawn here away from Jaken and Rin. The stupidness of these foolish beings was starting to irritate him.

"My foolish half brother could have used this light to protect himself from that arrow. However his feelings for this human caused him to use it on her."

******************************************************************

Kagome blinked her eyes for a moment. She didn't have a clue of where she was it was too dark for her to see.

"Where am I? Inuyasha where are you?"

A warm feeling filled her body and soul as she felt to arms wrap themselves around her waist. That when she heard a familiar voice spoke to her.

"I'm right here Kagome. I promised you that I would be with you."

Tears fell from Kagome's eyes as she turned to look into his honey golden eyes.

"Inuyasha."

Inuyasha leaned in and kissed Kagome passionately on the lips.

"Kagome I promise you that you will always have a piece of me with you always. I love you."

Kagome smiled up at Inuyasha.

"I love you too Inuyasha."

********************************************************

Both humans and the small fox seemed to be taking in what he had just said to them. Sesshomaru then turned his focus back to Inuyasha and his female.

'Inu-Yasha. What did you bestow upon this human girl? Is she your mate? Did you make her a half breed?'

Sesshomaru turned his cold eyes toward Miroku, Sango and Shippou.

"I must be going. I have wasted enough time on you."

Before Miroku knew what his was doing he threw a hand out toward Sesshomaru.

"Wait! You never really told us what this demon light is or does."

"It is simple monk. The demon light is apart of Inuyasha's demon side, what he chooses to do with it with the female is up to him."

With that Sesshomaru vanished out of sight.

**************************************************************

The light around Kagome pulsed for a few minutes, before it faded away from her body. All three companions jumped when Kagome sat up quickly as she called for Inuyasha.

"Inuyasha."

Kagome's hopes were shattered as she looked toward the god tree. It had just been a dream, because Inuyasha was still sealed to the tree. She wanted to die. No she just wanted to be with him forever if she could. So many things were coursing through her head. Kagome just wanted to end her pain, yet whenever she thought about dying something warm coursed through her making her want to live.

Kagome was brought out of her painful thoughts as Sango spoke her name.

"Kagome. Kagome are you alright?"

Kagome blink a few times as she looked over at Sango, she then nodded her head at Sango. Sango frowned at the fake smile that was on her face.

"Kagome. You don't need to hide the fact that you are hurting. We're your friends and it's ok."

At the sound of this Kagome threw herself against Sango chest as she knelt down beside, and she cried. Sango sat on the ground as she held Kagome. Kagome was like almost like a sister to her, so her pain was Sango's pain too.

Miroku did his best to comfort Shippou soon the fox kit had fallen asleep on Kirara. His heart ached for Kagome as well. It had been four years Kagome had been helping them look for jewel shards. Miroku's slate colored eyes drifted over to his hanyou friend who was now under a spell.

'Inuyasha, it took you this long to realize that you had feelings for Kagome, only to have Kikyo seal you once again. It makes me wonder what you and the jewel have bestowed upon Kagome.'

Miroku slowly made his way closer to Sango and Kagome. A sob came from Kagome once more then all became quiet.

"So it would seem that she has fallen asleep."

Sango looked up at Miroku with her own pained eyes.

"Yes, she has. I just wish there was something I could do to ease her pain."

Miroku gently set a hand on Sango's shoulder as he looked down at her.

"I believe the best thing we can do for her is to be there for when she needs us."

Miroku bent down and picked Kagome up and slowly started toward Kaede's village.

"We should go to the village and have Lady Kaede look to Kagome's injured shoulder, as well as tell her what has happened to Inuyasha as well as her sister."

Sango nodded to Miroku as Kirara followed behind them. She then noticed how deep in thought Miroku seemed to be in.

"Miroku what is it? What's wrong?"

"Something tells me that the weeks to come are not going to be easy. Kagome is exhausted in body and soul. I expect it will take her a long time to heal. However, my main concern is how we are going to keep Inuyasha safe from Naraku."

"You're right Miroku. Naraku is sure to hear about what has happened to Inuyasha."
