***Dream***

Rain softly fell upon the earth, as mist made the whole earth a soft gray, making the world look mystical and mysterious to Kagome as she walked along.

"Kagome." a deep voice from behind her said. Kagome spun around and gasped.

"Sesshoumaru!" Sesshoumaru smirked as he walked foreword.

"Kagome. Listen well, and carefully, for I can not does this repeatedly for your sake and for mine." Kagome looked at him confused.

"What are you talking about? Stop! Don't come any closer or I'll scream for InuYasha!" Sesshoumaru stopped walking foreword, his unemotional mask in place.

"You need not worry, Kagome. I am not here to hurt you. But I need to talk to you! Its Urgent! You need to come back, Kagome! You need to remember who you are!" Sesshoumaru stared at her, his eyes all most begging for her to remember something... Any thing.

"What are you talking about?" Kagome asked. "I know perfectly who I am!"

"Kagome!" he started to fade. "Please! Remember! Kagome you need to remember!" and as swiftly as he came, he was gone, leaving a confused Kagome behind.

***End of Dream***

"Wake up wench!" InuYasha said bitterly. Kagome woke up to find him inches away from her face. She let out a scream of shock, slapping him across the face. "You bitch!"

"SIT!" InuYasha slammed into the ground. Beside her, Shippo sighed.

"InuYasha, you're so immature." the eight-year-old kitsune youkai said. When the spell wore off, InuYasha jumped to his feet.

"Immature?!" he screeched. "Look who's talking!" Shippo rolled his eyes at him. "Don't you roll..." InuYasha stopped in mid yell, his nose twitching as he sniffed something in the air.

"What is it?" Kagome asked, grabbing her bow and arrow's, while Miroku and Sango grabbed their own weapons, as Shippo jumped behind Kagome.

"Sesshoumaru!" InuYasha grabbed. True enough, Sesshoumaru stepped out into the clearing where they had stopped to camp for the night. His eyes went directly to Kagome, as Kagome stared at him, with her mouth slightly open. "What the hell do you want?" InuYasha growled at his elder brother. Sesshoumaru looked at him with a bored expression.

"I wish to speak with Kagome." Kagome's mouth dropped even lower, while as the rest looked in-between the two.

"You can wish all you like, but wishin' ain't going to get you any where in life!" InuYasha ran forward, his father's fang all ready pulled out and transformed into its mighty sword, ready to strike at Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru lazily put his two fingers together, that started to form green, cracking his poison whip, and easily whipping the sword out of InuYasha's hands, sending it flying into the air and landing on the ground with a thud.

"InuYasha... And I thought it wasn't possible, but you proved me wrong. You have grown weaker then ever."

"This fight ain't over yet!" InuYasha growled as he ran toward him, this time planning to use his own claws. Sesshoumaru easily missed each swipe of his claws, leading his brother unnoticeably toward Kagome.

"Fool!" Sesshoumaru whispered as he seemed to disappear, then reappear behind Kagome, his arm wrapped around her shoulders, holding her to him. InuYasha stopped immediately.

"Let Kagome go!" InuYasha growled angrily.

"Not until I talk to her." Sesshoumaru said simply.

"Sesshoumaru," Kagome whispered. Sesshoumaru squeezed her shoulder slightly, letting her know he was listening, though his eyes never left InuYasha, or watching Miroku and Sango in the corner of his eye. "What ever this is about, can't it wait till later?" she begged softly.

"Did I or did I not tell you that I can not constantly visit you in your dreams with out the disastrous effects on both of us?" he whispered in her ear. Kagome shook with fear.

"Why do you want to talk to me?" Kagome whispered.

"I can not tell you here. I've all ready told you to remember, did I not?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Remember what?" Kagome asked frantically. "Can't you give me a clue or something?! Anything?!"

"Not now, but remember this! You are NOT the undead bitch's reincarnation! Meet me here tonight for more information." and with that he was gone.

~~

She didn't know why she went. In fact, knowing Sesshoumaru, she shouldn't have gone. But then again...something in her gut was telling her to go.

"I didn't think you would have come. How ever did you get away from InuYasha?"

"He doesn't know I'm here." Kagome said turning around and staring right into the taiyoukai's eyes.

"A sneak are you? The old Kagome would have fought her way here." Sesshoumaru shifted his eyes to look at the night sky, all most like he was missing something.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" Kagome said loudly as she stormed up to him inches away. Sesshoumaru let his mask slip as she neared. He looked at her with so much depression, longing, and yet a little bit of happiness, that Kagome had to take a step back.

"Sesshoumaru." Kagome whispered. As she whispered his name his eyes turned glass he took a step near her, pulling her to him in a tight embrace, burying his face in her hair. Kagome stood rigged.

"You don't know how long I've searched for you."

"What?"

"I've missed you so much...Our bed is empty without you in my arms!" he whispered in her ear.

"What?!"

Sesshoumaru took a step back from her, his hands on her shoulders.

"Kagome, you must believe what I say with all your heart! That's the only way that you will remember. You are the reincarnation of my departed..."

"Departed what Sesshoumaru?" Kagome asked, his eyes bearing into hers his golden eyes burning with something unknown to her. Something that made her aware of every single type of move she made.

"Mate. My departed mate."

"EXCUSE ME?!?!?"

Kagome world turned black, as she slumped forward in a dead faint, Sesshoumaru easily caught her, brushing her hair out of her face.

"Perhaps I let out to much information too soon?" he pondered to himself, as he eased himself to the ground, holding Kagome close to him.

He knew that the night was going to be long.

~~

It was an hour later that Kagome had awoken from her faint. She warm, while a pair of strong pair of arms where holding her tight pressed against a warm and muscular chest.

"I see you are up," Kagome jumped slightly but wasn't surprised that Sesshoumaru was still there. "Are you feeling all right?"

"Yeah, I think I am." Kagome said trying to wake up fully from her tired brain.

"I must apologize. I fear I sprung too much information on you in too little time. You weren't ready for it." Kagome made a noise familiar to a humorous snort.

"You don't say...But I can't believe you," Kagome said. "The chances of me being your departed mate are slim. Very slim! I'm still trying to get used that I'm a rebirth of Kikyou!"

"You are NOT Kikyou!" Sesshoumaru growled. Kagome looked up in fear, he looked livid. "Do not belittle your self like so!"

"All right! Whatever! Take a breather!" Kagome said, putting both hands up in defense. Sesshoumaru calmed him self down in seconds. 'Talk about mood swings' Kagome thought to her self.

They where silent for a while, Sesshoumaru staring at her form in the moonlight. 'That odd kimono is revealing too much skin. I shall need to make better arrangements with her wardrobe,' Sesshoumaru though looking at her fine shapely legs.

"Hay, Sesshoumaru?" Kagome moved to sit beside him.

"Hn?" Sesshoumaru looked her in the eyes.

"What happened to your mate?" Sesshoumaru once again looked at the stars.

"I found her dead one day. We had gotten into a fight about some silly thing. I can't even remember what we where fighting about. She stormed off into the woods. It took me three hours to come out of my damn pride, to go search for her to apologize," Kagome listened carefully. InuYasha had never told her anything about Sesshoumaru's background. "When I found her...She was slain unmercifully. The sight was a horrid one to see. Even if we weren't in such a close relationship, if I where to find her just that day, I would have cringed at the sight. When I walk among her death sight, I can still smell the horrid smell of blood."

"Oh, Sesshoumaru! I'm so sorry!" instantly at the sad story, Kagome's heart reached out for the inu tai youkai. "It must be so difficult to live without her." Kagome placed a hand on his shoulder softly. Sesshoumaru looked at her hand slightly, then at her.

"It has. But it's okay now, for I know where she is." he smiled at her slightly. She slowly drew her hand away.

"Sesshoumaru. How can you be so sure that it's me?" Kagome asked. Sesshoumaru smiled at her softly.

"That is for another night. You better head back before InuYasha notices you where gone. You where in a faint for about an hour or so."

"I was?! Kami! Every one must be worried..." Kagome had jumped up and was about to run into the woods, but turned around, gazing at Sesshoumaru's sad angelic face. He was so odd this night. Like he was a normal creature. Amazingly Kagome found her self wanting to know more about this side of Sesshoumaru. "Sesshoumaru. Can we meet again?" Sesshoumaru smiled softly again walking a step up to her.

"I shall all ways be close, so if you shall ever need me, I'll be right by your side." dipping his head slightly, he brushed his lips against hers, then disappeared, leaving a confused Kagome behind. She softly placed her fingertips to her lips.

"Kagome! Why the hell did you run off!" Kagome turned around, to find InuYasha (as he had spoken), Miroku, Sango, and Shippo running toward her. "Why aren't you speakin'?" InuYasha demanded at her. Kagome still didn't answer but studied his face carefully. 'What was a thinking when I thought that the two bothers looked alike. Sesshoumaru is much more handsome,' she didn't have time to realize what she thought, as Sango came up to her.

"Kagome, are you okay?"

"What? Oh, yes, I'm fine. I'm sorry for troubling you all."

"Feh! You should be, wench!" InuYasha crossed his arms, and turned his back to her.

"Sit InuYasha!" once again that day, InuYasha plummeted to the ground, with a heavy force, as a string of curses followed. Sighing softly, the rest of the gang headed back to camp, not questioning Kagome as she still looked out of it.
