Hey people! I know what you're thinking, and you are wrong. I never forgot about my stories, I was just a little preoccupied with all the stupid testing they do in school. I just took the snapshot tests, which are test that don't count and I just think that's stupid of the school district to make you take a test for no reason. Oh well, its finished (until finals) and I can write my stories more now. If I can think of anything to write of course. ;

That took a while for all the testing, now I have summer homework geez.

Well here is the next chapter in the story as keeping up my side of the deal with chibi moon baby.

Enjoy!

Shippo races across the forest floor trying to get to his momma as soon as he can. He heard the strangers talking about finding out what Kagome is and he wants to give her warning before they do anything that gets her to reveal anything she doesn't want them to know.

'I'm coming to tell you momma, I'll be there soon.' He thinks as he runs as fast as he can.

;;With Kagome;;

"Your late Kagome." Says a cold voice.

"I ride up on my motorcycle after a week of not seeing you and all you can say is that I'm late. You need to get out more Sesshomaru." Kagome says still sitting on her motorcycle.

She sets her helmet on the back of her motorcycle and watches Kage run around in the backyard of Sesshomaru's house.

"I get out enough." He says with his nose turned up.

Kagome looks at him wearing his old Feudal Japan armor. Then she looks at his house, or rather, his mansion.

"I don't blame you for not going out much. If I had a house like this I'd stay home a lot too. Of course I might lose the armor."

"Have you forgotten that we are practicing today? That is why you come here you know." He walks away towards the dojo in the back of his house.

Kagome jumps up and races after him.

"Yeah I know, but I just had a bad morning and I want to rest for a while first. Please can we wait until later to start training?"

Sesshomaru throws a quick glance at the girl next to him that is giving him puppy eyes. She darts in front of him and stops him from walking anymore.

"Pretty please Sesshy?" Big puppy dog eyes with small tears in the side of her eyes

Sigh "Alright, but just for a while."

"YEAH!!"

Sesshomaru jumps a little into the air from the force of her yell, and watches as she runs into his house at a fast pace. Before she reaches the door though a little fur ball hurls itself into her and knocks her off balance. Sesshomaru runs to see what happened.

"Shippo! What are you doing here?" Kagome asks her adopted pup sitting in her lap.

"Mommy, mommy! Those men are gonna try and find out who and what you are. They said some toddler named Koenma sent them here to do a job and they're going to do it." Shippo says really fast.

"Clam down pup, it's okay. They can't find out anything we don't want them to know." She says trying to calm her pup down by rubbing his head and gently rocking him in her arms.

"Who are these men you speak of?" Sesshomaru asks Kagome.

"They are visitors at the shrine, people that Genkai knows. They have an unusual amount of curiosity when it comes to people with high spirit energy." She answers.

"You were being careless again."

"I was not."

"You were."

"Was not."

"Were too."

"Was not."

"Were t—" Blink, blink "I won't be drawn into a this childish argument."

"You already were."

Sesshomaru ignores her and holds out his hand to help Kagome stand.

"Well, if you have people inquiring about you at the shrine, then you need to get your powers under better control."

"I'm doing just fine." Pouts Kagome.

"It's obviously not good enough. You improve quickly Kagome, but not quick enough."

Sesshomaru walks into his house as Kagome fallows closely behind carrying Shippo in her arms. They walk to the back of the house to the largest wing. It's filled with rooms for fighting, concentration, and empty rooms for power training. Some rooms also hold a variety of weapons and extra miscellaneous things.

Sesshomaru walks into one of the empty rooms and turns to Kagome. Quickly she stops so that she won't run into him.

"I think it's time to start your training. If you can't fully control your power, you are vulnerable to outside attacks from your enemies. And you give these...visitors more chances to discover your secrets."

She sets Shippo down and walks into the room around Sesshomaru.

"Stay out of trouble Shippo, and keep out of the way."

"Yes momma." Shippo says as he closes the door and sits down in front of it,

"Now are you ready?" Sesshomaru asks her.

"Nope, lets get started."

The little dojo like room fills with the sounds of fighting as the training begins for the day.

Sorry for the short chapter. I have summer school work that needs to be taken care of and finished to keep the parents happy. I'm also working on a joint story with a friend of mine from this site, but she's grounded from the computer so we have to write it by snail mail. Obviously it's gonna take a while, oh well. Inuyasha is showing up in the next chapter and Miroku and Sango will be showing up in the chapter after that. Don't worry they will be in the story.

One of my reviewers asked if this story had to do anything with either one of the animes in it, and yes it does as much as any other fanfic does. All the characters are in my story with as much of the same personalities as possible, etc, etc. If I answered your question wrong please review or e- mail me to ask again. I would hate to loose a reader because I answered a question wrong.

Please review to let me know what you thought of this chapter, and I'm still taking pairing votes. Review, review, review, review, and thank you.

Until next time my loyal readers. Love ya people! Please review.
