My friend, gave me this idea, and I thought I would go with it before I forget. I hope you like it! Not very original but I tried to write my best.

She looked at herself in the mirror. Her black, straight hair drifting along her face down past her shoulders and ending at her waist. Her red eyes sparkling under the candle light. She sighed getting up. 'Another day....' She looked at her bed to see the dress she would be wearing for the day laid out for her. 'it's perfect.' She examined. Black silk covering the red inside. Red jewels outlined the top just above her breasts. It was kind of low cut and sleevless. 'No doubt it shows some clevage.' She thought.
A gathering of royalty, was the occasion for the dress. She would be joining it for the first time. Though, it was held to discuss Naraku, her fathers enemy, her father had other intentions in mind. She was sixteen and her father believed it was well past time for her to be married. He hoped she would catch the fancy of another king or prince, mostly to get allies with another kingdom, but he kept that to himself and his advisors. She herself would rather not, but if she didn't find someone her father would arrange a marriage. She could think of nothing worse.
She got dressed and went back to the mirror to make sure she looked alright. It did fit her well. She placed her crown atop her head, then placed a red scarf across her shoulders, and went over to put on her shoes. Even with the heels the dress still dragged on the ground behind her. She opened the door to see her servent. An older woman that she treated as a mother, Annabel, But she called her Ann.
"OH" exclaimed the servent clutching her chest. "You frightened me milady." She chuckled. " Are you ready? Your father said it is almost time."
She nodded. "Yes I am ready. Though I don't want to go."
"Oh, but your so beautiful. Don't you want to find a nice man to grow old with."
"But why can't I do that some other time. I am not ready to grow old with anyone. I would much rather at least wait a few more years. Is that too much to ask?" She whined.
"Why wait?" Ann asked disbelieving. "You are young. Trust me I know. It is best to find a husband now."
Kagome sighed. This was getting her no where. Maybe she could just put off finding someone until her father forgot all about it. She knew that couldn't happen. That would risk him finding someone for her.
They made their way down to the dining room. Kagome took a deep breath.
"Good luck milady." Ann said slightly pushing her to enter.
She walked in and they all quieted down, only to make her even more nervous than she already was.
"Kagome!" Her father boomed standing up. "Come. Come sit my dear." He said gesturing to a seat beside him.
She smiled politly and sat beside him. Her back straight and hands folded in her lap.
"Well" Her father said. "Now lets get down to business."
"I have heard, that Naraku has gained many allies. I am afraid to trust anyone. You do not know who's side anyone is on nowadays." Said Inutaisho. (is that rite? i dunno these things.) But Kagome wasn't listening. She just examined everyone that sat at their round table. She looked back over to Inutaisho, who was still talking.
He was the king of the dog demons. Kagome knew of him but had never met him. He had long white hair and golden eyes. Just like the two boys on either side of him. She presumed his sons.
She look over to the right of them to see the wolf demons. Only two, she thought there used to be three. She had seen them once, the king and his two sons. She knew the one that sat there, now, beside his father as Kouga. She wondered where the other son was. Perhaps he chose not to come. 'thats not fair.' She thought angrily, for she had not wanted to come either, but she is still stuck here.
She sighed looking beside them, surprising her, to see a queen. She had long white hair and red eyes. She thought the queen demon looked like a lightening demon but she wasn't sure. She too had a daughter beside her with matching hair but green eyes. They were both beautiful and seem to glow.
She looked on beside them to see the demon slayers. 'That's odd.' She thought. 'Why would the demon slayers be here?' She shook her head. Maybe this whole Naraku business was serious.
To the right of them was two priestesses and three monks. She knew the priestesses, Kaede and Kikyou, But she didn't know the monks.
Finally the last group was, what she figured, were the fire demons. Bright red hair and yellow or orange eyes. The king had, what looked like, flames around his rists as braclets. He had a woman demon beside him. Probably his wife from the looks of her.
"Well my son was killed by one of Naraku's minions, sadly. He is, indeed, very powerful." Said the King of the wolf demons.
'Oh, so that's what happened.' Kagome thought guitly of how she got angry before.
"Well we can't just sit around. We need to take action before he becomes too powerful for us to handle." Kagomes father said. Just as a servent came and whispered something into his ear. The servent looked rather nervous, Kagome noted.
"I am afraid thats to late." said the lightening demon queen darkly, getting up along with her daughter. "Join us, or die." she said. Then the fire demons rose also. After a few seconds, two of the monks. The lightening queen smirked.
"Never!" Kagome's father yelled. "Tana, I trusted you into my home against my advisors request, and this is how you repay me?" He gritted through his teeth.
"Well sometimes rumors are true. Perhaps one day you will be smart enough to be more cautious about who you trust." She said sending a ball of yellow energy at him. He was now standing, putting up a shield to block him and Kagome.
"Run Kagome!" He yelled. Sweat was outlining his forehead as he struggled to block another attack.
"No! I can't leave you!" She yelled.
He growled. "Servants!" That's all he needed to say as they dragged her away. All the servents came to help since she was using her powers on them trying to get them all off, but they were too strong. Once she got one to let go another would replace it. She didn't give up though.
Then, when they were just about down the hall, that lead to the castle rooms all the servants were blown against the wall. Kagome closed her eyes. Then opened them to find she was hovering above the ground and a man and a woman were approaching her.
"Kagura, take her back to the castle." The man said with a smirk on his face.
My favorite pairings are Inu/Kag and Mir/San. But if you guys want different pairings vote for them in your reviews and thats what it will be. Flames welcomed too, of course.
