Chapter 6: Kagome Explains All
Kouga gently laid Kagome down on the ground as he ordered his brothers to bring water to wake her up. Just as the other wolves moved to do his bidding Sesshoumaru came onto the scene. "Brother, its time for you to give me the sword and the girl."
"Dream on! And why do you want Kagome. I thought you didn't like humans." answered InuYasha with a smirk. Kouga glared at this new comer. 'Who is this guy? He seems powerful,' he thought moving protectively to Kagome's side. Sesshoumaru moved closer to them, as he did so Kouga growled in warning. 'If he hurts her I'll kill him!' he thought fuming. "Get away from my women," Kouga shouted as he moved between the advancing Sesshoumaru and Kagome. Sesshoumaru arched one delicate eyebrow at the enraged wolf. "Your woman? I don't see a mark on her," sneered the demon lord. Kouga was at a loss for words. True he hadn't marked Kagome yet, but he had decided to have her as his mate and that was that. "Your mate?!? She's my woman you mutt!" shouted InuYasha as he jumped in fury. 'Stupid hanyou,' thought Kouga and Sesshoumaru at the same time. Then they all three covered there ears as an enraged scream filled their ears. Kagome it seemed had come out of her faint and she wasn't happy either.
Kagome's POV:
I woke up to hear these 'men' fighting over whose mate I'll be. How dare they! I'm the only one that will ever decide that!
I have some say in it, voiced Tailiscar
Yes, but not much. Tailiscar simply laughed at how mad her walker was becoming.
Kagome sat up and noticed that she was covered with InuYasha hatori. A slight blush stained her cheeks. 'Well I guess they've seen everything' (shouting laughter from Tailiscar) Kagome then turned her attention to the three males before her. 'Which one first,' she thought
Oooohhhh! Go for InuYasha! Rip his head off!
Kagome could just see Tailiscar running around in a circle for joy. (Sweat drop) She then confronted the males. She walked up between Kouga and Sesshoumaru. She thought she should deal with the biggest threat first and make her meaning clear. "First, I'm no one mate. Got that! Not yours, not InuYasha's, and not Kouga. Further more, when I do decide to mate, I will decide who and where and none of you will force me. Got it!" Of course how could they not have got it, she had shouted every word and to emphasize her fact she had poked Sesshoumaru in the chest after each statement.
The others that knew Sesshoumaru's character had watched in horror wondering when he would try to kill her. Sesshoumaru simply looked at the miko with a weird fascinated look on his face. 'She dares defy me. Me the great Lord of the West,' he thought in wonder.
'Boy she's got fire!' thought Kouga.
'She insane!' thought Kikyou.
'If he hurt's her I'll kill him," thought InuYasha.
'Must be the stress,' thought Sango and Miroku. Kouga took the moment of silence to touch Kagome's shoulder. She turned around to meet the confused and slightly hurt eyes of the wolf prince. "Kagome, will you please tell me what happened a few moments ago." Kagome's head fell down. 'I knew they were going to ask that sooner or later,' she thought sadly. The others around her looked at her with curiosity and with awe. "Yes I'll explain, but I want Shippo with me. He has a right to know the truth too." Kouga nodded and the group went back to the wolves' den. Kouga wasn't completely happy about bring everyone, but he knew it was no use fighting.
Later:
Kagome smiled as she heard Shippo call out her name and launch himself at her. 'Man, its good to see him,' she thought as she held her adopted son up to her. Kagome walked into the den and sat down on a pile of furs and simply waited for the other to follow her. When they were all settled she began.
"First, I'm not exactly a normal teenage girl."
"Yeah we knew that." stated InuYasha and got hit over the head by Sango. Sesshoumaru simply grinned. Kagome almost died with shock as the looked at the inu yokai. 'So he can smile!' she thought happily.
On with story.
Yes thank you Tailiscar.
"Anyway, my family does not only have a shrine to maintain we also are part of a wolf pack. Many years ago, as the legends say, the wolf demons were being killed by humans. In a finally attempt to save their kind the leader of the wolves made a deal with a priest. That priest was my ancestor.
The deal was that if the priest and his descends protected the pack than the wolves would in turn protect and help them. At the moment the priest accepted the offer the wolf walkers were born.
When a child comes of age, around 13, he or she is presented to the new clubs for that season. The club chooses from the candidates and decides who it wants to be paired with. At the moment of choosing the child sprit becomes intertwined with that of the pups. They can speak with each other telepathically and when needed can joined together to become what you saw a few moments ago. The bond is very strong, so strong in fact that if one of the pair should die the other will be only a ghost of itself and normally the partner left will grieve itself to death.
I was 12 when Tailiscar choose me. And I've been with her every since. When my eyes glaze over, I am actually speaking with her. She is the other part of me. My soul mate if you will. For the rest of my life and her we will share everything both joyous and sadness. She is also the alpha female of her pack, so tomorrow I must go home and help with the choosing ceremony that will occur at the next full moon."
When Kagome finished the other just stared at her. It answered so many questions. All of them were curious about the ceremony.
"I'm coming with you!," they all see at the same time.
Let them, came Tailiscar voice.
Are you sure?
Yes the more the merrier. Beside I want to meet them.
Ok. Just don't kill any of them.
Only if they behave.
Kouga gently laid Kagome down on the ground as he ordered his brothers to bring water to wake her up. Just as the other wolves moved to do his bidding Sesshoumaru came onto the scene. "Brother, its time for you to give me the sword and the girl."
