A Winter Wonder
By: HeavenlyAnimeAngel-Amaterasu
Returning Home…
Her raven blue-black hair whirled around her face. She stood in front of all the Taiyoukai of the Lands. Her blue eyes held defiance and determination as she looked at each and every one of them. Her black kimono gave her aura the air of royalty, which she didn't have. She bowed low to them in an apologetic manner.
"I know that I am asking much of you Lords and Ladies of the Lands. But I must go back to my time. There is no need for me here. I cannot stay in a place where I will only be a tool." The woman asked politely. "Lord Sesshomaru, I have trained Rin in such a way that she will be a good miko to you all."
"Lady Kagome, it is you who we should be bowing to." The lord of the South said. He had white eyes that had magenta around the outside. Thought it may look like he is blind, he isn't. His brown-red hair was in a low ponytail and braided. He had two bangs, hanging in his face. His tail was a red-brown and similar to a coyote's. There was a symbol on his forehead. It was a diamond with swirls coming from each point. There is a scar on his right cheek from ear to chin. He was Kaien, the wisest and the oldest of the Taiyoukai. He bowed to Kagome as did his niece. Her name was Cania, she had strawberry brown hair held back by a halo. Her eyes were pink with blue lining.
"Yes, Kaien is right. You have saved this world from the menace known as Naraku. We are in your graces." Lady Rei spoke. She and her husband Darius were from the East and were of the neko breed. They had a symbol on their forehead that look like two S stretched out in a cross shape. Lady Rei had light blue feline eyes. She had black hair that was up in a French Roll. She also had a black feline tail. Lord Darius had green feline eyes and short light brown hair. His bangs framed his eyes. He had an orange tail that was slightly reddish. Both had two stripped on their faces. Darius' was orange, Rei's was blue-black.
Lady Kinaki was a red lynx and Taiyoukai of the North. She unlike the other Taiyoukai had lynx ears resting upon her head and didn't have a tail. The symbol adorning her forehead was that of a sun. She was a like a sister to all the other Taiyoukai. She has teal eyes with golden specks in them. Her hair is orange-yellow with black tips. A black line runs down from the corner of her eyes down to the end of her cheeks. "Kagome…what's with being nice all of a sudden? Where's the old you, man?" The other Taiyoukai chuckled at this and agreed.
"I'm sorry." Kagome said as she stood up. "Fighting Naraku has made me serious. I guess now that it is over I can go back to normal ne?" She giggled and looked at Sesshomaru.
"Jaken, bring in the kit." He commanded. The little toad nodded and rushed off. Cania and Kinaki smiled then elbowed Rei.
"Kagome…we'd like to give you something!" They chimed together. Darius stepped back.
"They are scary when they do that." He said making Sesshomaru and Kaien chuckle. Kagome laughed and looked at them.
"Well then, what is it?" The three ladies held out a necklace made out of metal. It was of Celtic design…the design of completion. It held a purple stone in the middle of it. (HAA: I have this!) "This is beautiful."
"Arigato!" They chimed again.
"Mama!" A kitsune cub yelled as he launched himself at Kagome. The young woman hugged her adoptive son and smiled at the lords and ladies.
"Thank you…Thank you for everything. Please come visit me sometime alright?" Kagome asked them.
"Of course!" Cania said. Kaien nodded. Kagome hugged them all before going to the balcony. She smiled at them as she held her kit in her hands.
"Goodbye…" With that she disappeared in a blur.
~~~
Kagome sighed as she got out of the well. She was glad she didn't run into Inuyasha and Kikyo. She did however she did run into Kaede and Kirara. Being Kagome, she decided to take Kirara home with her since…Sango and Miroku died in the fight against Naraku. She smiled as Shippo and Kirara scurried out of the well. Kagome heaved the giant boomerang and a staff out of the well.
"Mama! I think you should lay them beside the god tree." Shippo said as he and Kirara ran out of the well house. Kagome laughed at their energy.
"Good idea Shippo!" Kagome followed them out to god tree and leaned the heavy weapon and staff against the tree. "May your souls rest in peace," Kagome whispered as she turned away from the tree and led Shippo and Kirara inside. "Mama! I'm home!"
"Oh hello hunny!" Kun-loon said from the kitchen. Kagome smiled as Shippo scrambled into the kitchen. The scent of freshly baked sugar cookies filled the air. "Oh…who is this?" Kagome's mother asked as she turned to see Kirara and Shippo.
"Mama, this is Shippo, my adopted son and Kirara, my friend Sango's neko." Kagome frowned slightly. "Sango…and my friend Miroku died Mama…"
"Oh Kagome…"
"We killed Naraku though…and made a wish on the jewel!" Kagome said with false happiness. Kun-loon sighed. Her daughter is trying to hide her sadness, but she knew better and just went along with it.
"Really dear? What did you wish on?" She asked as she moved the cookies from the pan to plate.
"I know, I know!" Shippo waved his hand. Kagome smiled and nodded. "Mama wished for the well to work for me also so I could come live with her in this time! Sango and Miroku were going to come…but they died. We brought their weapons back and placed them beside the god tree!" Shippo said in a proud sad voice. Kagome nodded and patted Kirara's head, who purred at the gesture.
"Well Mama, if it is alright…I would like to go see if I can find cousin Shizuru or Yusuke around anywhere. I want them to see Shippo!" Kagome giggled and raced upstairs to change.
"Shippo can borrow some of Souta's clothing!" Kun-loon called as Shippo and Kirara raced upstairs also.
"Alright mother!" Kagome laughed and continued to get dress. She pulled out a pair of tripp black and purple double pocket pants. She let the straps hang and smiled. She took out a Rock Steady Black with Pink stars tank. She smiled and liked the way she looked. Her cousin's friend, Ama…or so everyone calls her (Ama: THAT'S ME! And if you wanna know what they look like got to www.hottopic.com ) got her this outfit.
"You look nice mama!" Shippo said. Kirara mewed and followed Kagome into Souta's room. She took out a pair of dark blue jeans and a black shirt out. The black shirt had THE Happy Bunny on it with 'If you make me read this, you ARE stupid.' Shippo smiled and showed off his outfit to Kirara. She mewed in response then jumped on his head.
"Let's go then," Kagome said as she put on the Celtic Necklace the Ladies of the Lands gave her. She smiled at Shippo as he rushed downstairs. "Be back later mom!" She yelled as they left the house. She raced Shippo down the stairs and laughed as he pouted when she won. "Come on Shippo-chan, let's find my cousins."
"Alright Mama," Shippo chimed as Kirara mewed in agreement. Kagome headed off toward own direction with Shippo following close behind.

"Yusuke!" Atsuko called as she hung up the phone. "Yusuke…!"
"WHAT MOTHER!?" Yusuke yelled from his room. The Spirit Detective team was there just sitting around. There was nothing to do so Yusuke said they could go over his house.
"Don't take that tone with me buddy!" Atsuko said as she entered the room. "Your cousin Kag is home. Your Aunt told me she wanted to show her son to you."
"What cousin…? What son…?" Yusuke blinked. "You don't mean that little cousin Kagome…the one that would stick against anyone who was rude to her?"
"One in the same."
"She's got a son?" Yusuke blinked again.
"Yes, and cause of that I want you to go find her!" Atsuko glared at Yusuke, who shook his head. "Yusuke…go or I will do something you will regret."
"Fine…" Yusuke said not liking the tone of his mother's voice. It detected that she would bring out the baby pictures.
"Good, I'm sure your friends won't mind! Kagome is quite the lovely girl now." Atsuko smiled as she headed to the kitchen for something to drink.
"I'm so sure…" Yusuke murmured.
"Cousin?" Kurama raised an eyebrow. "Didn't know you had a cousin Yusuke?"
"I forgot about her. She moved away a few years ago when we were just little." Yusuke rubbed the back of his head as they all headed out.
"Hn…" Hiei stood beside Kurama not caring.
"Uh…where are we going?" Kuwabara asked. Yusuke hit him upside the head.
"To find my cousin you dumbass!" Yusuke glared at him as they continued on.
~~~
Kagome blinked as she looked at the street signs. She was looking for Sarayashiki High School. Hm…Knowing Yusuke he'd still be the punk of the school. Kagome thought as she headed toward the school.
"Mama, do you know where we are going?" Shippo asked as Kirara looked around from his side.
"Yes girl, do you know where you are going?" A punk said as he stepped out from behind a wall. Other punks started to crowd around Kagome and Shippo, who had bored expressions on. "How about the 15 of us play with the two of you."
"Sure…Kirara, stay with Shippo…" Kagome smiled. "And in your smaller form…" She whispered so the neko could hear her. The neko nodded and stood tall next to the kit as Kagome walked toward the leader of the group.
"So how about it?" Another asked. Kagome leaned forward and smiled.
"Alright, let's play." She murmured seductively. The punk exhaled heavily. Kagome stepped back and he fell forward cupping his family jewels. "One down…14 morons to go." She smiled innocently.
"GET HER!" They all jumped toward Kagome, who dodged long enough to put her hair up in a sloppy bun.
"Alright, now I'm ready…" She got into her fighting stance and allowed them to attack her. The first kid that tried to punch her was thrown into the wall. Kagome then jumped up to avoid two people kicking her. She landed beside them and kicked their legs out from under them causing them to fall. She ducked under a punched and smiled at the fallen that had gotten up. Oh it was going to be a fun day.
~~~
Kids started to gather around the fighting and marveled at how a girl was holding her own against 15 guys. Kuwabara blinked and pointed to the crowd.
"Urameshi, what's that about?"
"I don't know, let's find out." Yusuke and the other pushed their way to the front to see the fight. Let's say they were amazed at how a girl was knocking out all these guys.
"Incoming!" She called as she threw the guy over her shoulder into the crowd. She then went down into a split, to dodge a punch. She swept her legs at her opponents causing him to fall back. She rolled a bit then stood up and looked at Shippo who was clapping. She raised her fist back elbowing a guy in the face. She then grabbed his head and flipped him over her shoulder and punched his stomach. She stood up and turned to the other guys who were backing away or getting up. She smirked and glanced at Shippo. She took a step forward and glared at the guys. "Boo," They all ran like chickens.
"'fraidy Cats!" Kagome yelled at them. Kirara mewed and glared playfully at Kagome. "Sorry Kirara." She turned and looked at the crowd. Putting her hands on her hips she raised an eyebrow. "The Entertainment is over…the crowd can leave!" She yelled. Everyone left except for the Spirit Detective Team and Shippo and Kirara. Smiling, Kagome ran and jumped into Yusuke's arms giving him a hug. "Yusuke!" Yusuke blinked and looked down at the girl in his arms.
"Um…" Was the ever so smart reply. Kagome pulled away and glared at Yusuke pouting.
"Yusuke Urameshi, do you not remember your own cousin?" Kagome asked disapprovingly. "I am ashamed." She shook her head as she felt Shippo cling to the back of her leg and Kirara climb to her shoulder.
"Kagome?" He said. "You certainly…grown."
"Pervert…" She murmured. Miroku…I think I found your long lost brother. Thank god he's my cousin. She mentally laughed and smiled. "Who are your friends?" Kagome looked at the rest of them.
"Oh, yea…this is Kuwabara…you remember him? You buried him neck deep in mud last time you saw him." Yusuke smirked as Kagome remembered.
"OH YEA! That freaky monkey that thought he could beat you. Can he talk sentences now?" Kagome asked as she looked skeptical at Kuwabara.
"I…" Kuwabara suddenly when down onto his knees in front of Kagome. "Pretty lady, will you be my girlfriend?" Kuwabara received three hits. One from Yusuke, the other from Kagome, and the last from Shippo, who was sending them all death glares. Hiei glared back at the child, as the other three raised an eyebrow at his actions.
"Who's the runt?" Yusuke asked while crouching down to see Shippo closer.
"I'm not a runt! I'm Shippo! And that stupid monkey better stay with away from my 'kaa-san!" Shippo said harshly. His tail twitched irately. This cause Kurama and Hiei to notice his tail.
"Fine, Fine…over here is Kurama," Yusuke stood and pointed. "And oh Mr. Talkative here is Hiei." Kurama smiled and bowed politely.
"Hello Kagome," He said smoothly. Hiei regarded her with annoyance. Kagome stared at the two in slight apprehension. She picked up Shippo and looked around.
"So Kagome…" Yusuke said trying to ease his cousin's nerves. "I hear you just back from your trip. How was it?"
"Oh…" Kagome blinked trying to think of something. "I made a lot of new friends!" She said. Yusuke face faulted and then stood up his eyebrow twitching slightly.
"You always do…" Kagome laughed and started to back away as Kurama took a step forward.
"Kagome, may I ask you a question?" Kurama inquired. Kagome nodded slowly. "Why is it your adoptive son has a kitsune tail?" Kagome blinked and looked down. She didn't even notice it, his tail was protruding his pants.
"It's a costume…yeah…" She gave a nervous laugh. Hiei narrowed his eyes and glared at the woman.
"I must be going now…Later Yusuke!" Kagome quickly turned around and ran with Kirara at her heels. Hiei suddenly appeared in front of her. Kagome, on instinct, flipped over Hiei with Shippo in her arms. She twisted so she ended up looking at Hiei's back. She kicked her foot out pushing Hiei forward into Kurama and Yusuke. Kurama saw her necklace as she turned and ran once more.
"What the fuck was that about?" Yusuke asked as he watched Kagome turn a corner.
"Why not ask?" Kurama said.
"We'll go to my aunt's tomorrow and sees what's up." The tired punk said. "Right now, I'm going home. C'ya guys tomorrow."
"Bye Yusuke…" Kurama said. He looked at Hiei, who started to walk off. Kurama turned leaving Kuwabara and ran to Hiei. "Hey Hiei, what's wrong?"
"That girl, her scent had a tint of an inu-youkai as well as several others." Hiei said as he put his hands in his pockets. "She associated with demons."
"You think?" Kurama looked down at the apparition. Hiei nodded as they headed for Kurama's house.
~~~
Kagome sighed and looked down at Shippo and Kirara. "Best stay away from them, if I can."
"Mama, where are we?" Shippo asked as he jumped down. Kagome turned to see a large corporate building. "What's this?" Shippo pointed.
"Angel Enterprises…" Kagome turned around to see a dark tan woman behind her. The woman had strawberry brown hair up in a braided bun. Her pink eyes seemed familiar to Kagome. "Hello Kagome…it's been a long time."
"Who are you…?" Kagome asked slowly.
"Have you forgotten me Kagome? Rei and Kinaki gave you that necklace 500 years ago today." The woman smiled.
"CANIA!?" Kagome said in surprise.
"Hai…" She laughed. "It's good to see you still remember us Kagome." Kagome blinked. "Did you forget about Sesshomaru, my uncle, and the others?"
"No…but I guess you all are the major business owners in Japan ne?" Kagome asked.
"You are as smart as ever. Kinaki owns a club downtown. Everyone is going to be there tonight. Want to go give them all a heart attack?" Cania said evilly.
"Sure! Mother would love to watch Shippo and Kirara. She'll spoil them rotten." Kagome and Cania laughed as Shippo cheered.
