Hello again! Guess what! My crazy evil cousins left today! I am happy and tired at the same time…I had to sleep on the damn couch the whole time they were here since they took my bed! (Actually, me being the oddball in my family and usually sleeping on the couch when I feel my bed is uncomfortable, went from sleeping on the couch, to the floor, and then the bath tub…and yes I am serious…bath tubs are actually quite comfortable... . ) But now I am sitting in my bed with my broken lap top typing this up. My laptops screen is kind of broken to where it is loose and won't stop flapping shut…so I might now be able to update for a while if we have to send it out.

Thanks again TheWorld is a Stage for Editting!

Disclaimer: I do not own Inu Yasha…This is getting kind of boring to type…

Chapter 5: Unexpected Happenings.

-Eclipsion's POV-

I couldn't help notice as Seijun and I ran, the thrill she had in her eyes even though she had a calm and emotionless face. I remember she used the same expression, either when she was around people she didn't know, or, when she was determined about something. It now seems as if her true soul is almost awake, which will cause conflict if we do not remove the soul of the dead priestess soon. Two souls in one body are very dangerous indeed, if both are awake. I must get Shinigami to remove the soul and revive Kikyou at once, before both souls are lost.

I was shocked at how little she had changed…especially since the incident that had sent her away happened. She was still the free spirited and determined stubborn individual I knew, though now her hair was much longer, and she had grown a foot and a half taller. She now stood 5'6 in height. She has always been petite though, even if she is older than me, she has always looked so young and childish, and that's the reason Sesshoumaru used to tease her. You would never think they were best friends, different as they were. Yet, he seemed to be the only who could tease her and get away with it, even if it did anger her. I still remember when she first received the name 'Kagome' from him. She was so pissed since we had not played 'Kagome Kagome' for years, and she knew he was mocking her, and calling her a child, when he called her it.

-Flash back-

Teenaged looking Sesshoumaru is sitting in a field with Seijun and Eclipsion. He and Seijun are arguing, as usual, about how 'childish' she is.

" Just because I look young, and am short for my age gives you no right to call me a child! I am probably more mature than you in the first place, Fluffy!" Seijun yelled, clearly annoyed.

"Well, little girl, I seriously doubt you are more mature than this Sesshoumaru. And I do have the right to call you a child." He retorted.

"Well, at least I do not refer to myself in third person, Fluffy dearest." She replied with a smirk.

By this time, Eclipsion was laughing and pointing at Sesshoumaru. He return just smiles an evil smile. Eclipsion knew from past experiences he was about to do something that both will piss off and baffle her dear friend at the same time, but what happened next was certainly unexpected and just left her shocked.

"Well, I wouldn't have to if you were able to comprehend I am your superior. And, Kagome, don't call me 'dearest' unless you mean it." Sesshoumaru smirked and then leaned forward and kissed her lightly on the cheek. He then stood up and walked off, chuckling lightly at Seijun's response.

Her eyes were wide and her mouth open staring at him, surprised to say the least, at what he had done and said, then she got extremely angry at him for calling her a child and low in the same sentence.

" You are not my superior Sesshoumaru! AND STOP CALLING ME KAGOME! I am not a child anymore!" She yelled, and walked back to the Northern palace, leaving the stunned celestial behind thinking ' What just happened?'

That day, though, was the last day either of them had seen her until now. For the lands broke out into war over the prophecy and a rising evil, and it became unsafe for her stay in this time…and that was the last day Sesshoumaru was ever open to anyone, including her.

-End of Flash back-

I frowned slightly at that memory. Sesshoumaru became completely cold and emotionless after that, although I got him to show some emotions around me, they were mainly that of annoyance. It took me years to figure out that he cared for Seijun more than just as a close friend. He was, after all, the only person who got away with calling her Kagome without any physical abuse…She always really hated being called a child, hated it with a passion.

-Normal POV-

"ECLIPSION!" Seijun screamed, after only calling her name 10 times before that.

"WHAT!" The said celestial replied.

" Well now that I have your attention, after calling you about a dozen times, and Shippo poking you, we are nearing Sesshoumaru's castle now. From the looks of it, those two had a pretty heated fight." She stated simply.

And indeed it looked as if they had. All the trees in the area looked abused and skid marks, holes, and scratches were on the forest floor everywhere. Suddenly they felt the ground vibrate. Inu Yasha and the gang had caught up with them by now and all had slightly worried expression on their faces.

" They couldn't have transformed into their demonic forms, could they?" Shippo asked innocently.

Eclipsion and Seijun just stared at each other and dashed off to find out. On their arrival, they found Metsu laughing at the scene before her.

"Metsu, what the hell are you lau-----" Eclipsion was cut off when she looked around the dragon to see Sesshoumaru and Shinigami drinking sake and arguing with each other about who had better hair (yes…OCCish but I found it amusing in my head….).

Eclipsion gawked while Seijun simply lifted an eyebrow as the others came up behind them and stared, and like Eclipsion, they had all suddenly become very realistic statues.

"And you said I was childish, Fluffy?" said, a now laughing, Seijun. This caused the others to laugh as well, once they snapped out of their shocked stage.

"Eclipsion, I do not remember ever calling you…" Sesshoumaru started out, until he looked at the person who spoke, " Seijun?"

"The one and only…Though you have been calling me 'Inu Yasha's wench' or 'miko' or 'human' for the last two years Sesshoumaru." She said glaring at him.

To say he was shocked would be an understatement. He couldn't believe that Kagome was HIS Kagome!

'Wait...my Kagome? Since when did I refer to Seijun as mine?'

'Since you kissed her on the cheek, all those years ago…'

'Get out of my head Eclipsion….'

'Fine…Meanie…'

He walked up to Seijun and hugged her.

"It has been a long time, my dear friend." He said.

"Yes, it has." she said before fainting, her soul finally fully awakened. The two souls that lived within her body already causing conflicts. Eclipsion rushed to her side.

"Shinigami, hurry up and return the priestess's soul, before something bad happens!" she literally screamed.

"Kikyou come forward if you want your soul back…" He said simply, and the dead priestess did as she was told.

The God of Death and Rebirth started chanting, while touching Kikyou and Seijun's arms. The other's watched as a pink light left Seijun's body and entered Kikyou's body. Kikyou soon collapsed, all the souls she had stolen leaving her body.

"What happened?" Inu Yasha asked.

"The Powerful One fainted when her soul fully awakened. Two wakened souls cannot exist within one body. If it so happens that they do, conflicts will arise that will render the one who harbors the souls unconscious. The souls will battle it out for dominance, but, this causes even more conflict, and can be fatal to the person if one soul is not removed peacefully, and safely. That is why I had to remove Kikyou's soul. I am giving her another chance at living since her life was taken away unfairly. I also removed the souls she stole, and the rebirth process is in motion. It will revive both Kikyou, and the also the unfortunate maidens whose souls she had stolen. These two will be out for a couple of days. In the mean time, we will wait before explaining the prophecy. This should give time for the other lords to come as well." He stated smoothly, as if it was no big deal.

So, since it was almost nighttime, they all settled down and went to their assigned rooms. Shinigami, Eclipsion, and Kirara took their rooms in the imperial wing (Eclipsion and Shinigami in the same room.) Kikyou, Sango, and Miroku each had a room in the Guest wing. Sesshoumaru carried Kagome to her room, next to his, in the family wing. Inu Yasha and Shippo also had rooms in the family wing. Sesshoumaru had the suspicion that Eclipsion had chosen these arrangements on purpose.

Meh…This chapter does not satisfy me at all but I kind of have writer's block right now -.-;; It was either post this crappy chapter or skip way ahead of myself and confuse everyone completely…It is kind of sappy and stupid and lame in my opinion but oh well. I will openly take flames for this chapter because I am flaming it myself self! I just want to burn it since I hate it because it sounds so stupid . meh…

The World is a Stage- Yes they all do! I got the idea of having an extra half brother, Shinigami, since I have two older half sisters. My younger older half sister do not get along at all, but we have managed to tolerate each other some what. My oldest half sister and I get along fairly well though. I am not going to tell you the relationship with the older sisters together, though, since I am not sure if they are going to be like the brothers though.

LadyV77- Yes I will be explaining that. I, in fact, think that is the missing thing in this story. I already have it all thought out in my head but I am trying to decide if I can explain it. There are currently two versions of how it came to be with Mrs. Higurashi has Kagome with her though and I am actually going have to write both of them out to decide which is better. Right now I have just been typing everything since I do not feel like writing them out.

Taiyoukai Lady- The name "Kagome" is not, and will not be completely removed from the story.

I do know where I want the story to go...just trying to figure out what is in between. Rin is actually going to be introduced(finally) in the next chapter and more of Kagome's past will be revealed to how she ended up in the future. It might take me a while to update since I am not sure exactly how I want to bring Rin into the story, as well as the other characters. If anyone has ideas, please let me know.

Please review and I will update as soon as possible.
