Chapter 10

Kagome and the others finally returned to the castle. It had been a long day for them all.

Kagome went in search for Sesshomaru inside and was having a hard time finding him. Then out of no where Inuyasha came right behind her and startled her.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha asked a little confused.

"Yes Inuyasha?" Kagome asked still looking for Sesshomaru.

"Why did you call me…? Yashy?" He asked puzzled.

"Don't you remember?" She turned her attention to him.

"Kind of, I remember when I was young that a girl would always play with me and call me Yashy. But, was that you?" He asked.

"Yes, it was." She proved be slightly stroking his ear like she used to.

"It's… been… so long… you're back… and I never noticed…" Inuyasha was starting to cry. "And when I now know… I also know that I've been so cruel to you." He was trying to hide his eyes while he cried.

"Shh… it's alright…" She started to hug him. "You didn't know… but it's okay now." She tried to assure him.

Sesshomaru was watching not far away and got pissed as he watched her hug Inuyasha. He then walked away into the chamber to sleep.

Inuyasha felt better and attended to a room he would be claiming his. Kagome then sighed and walked into her chambers and found Sesshomaru sleeping, or so she thought.

"Sesshy?" She closed the door behind her and walked to him. She sighed "you must be asleep… but… I'm sorry if I got you mad… I just wanted to make him happy." He said with a slight smile. "I hope you weren't jealous... You're my mate remember? So Inuyasha is just a brother." She kissed his cheek and started to walk away.

"Kagome." Sesshomaru started.

"Yes?" She asked.

"Why, why did you help the half breed?" He asked.

"He's family, and you… didn't keep your word for me." She said in a sad voice.

"He needed to learn that being a half breed was better for him." He sounded annoyed and was getting angry.

"You kicked him out didn't you… out of the castle?" She asked.

"He would never stop crying. He was stupid young one." He sighed.

"Are you still mad at me?" She asked.

"Of today, no, why ask?" He asked.

"Not today… many years ago… when I did leave you." She sat next to him and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Then pain kept hurting more after you left, till I planned to move on. I got rid of the half-breed and then met Jaken." He rested his head on hers.

"I'm so sorry…" She started to cry.

"It's not your fault, relax." He said in a soothing voice.

Kagome just sighed and made Sesshomaru remove his head off hers so she could remove hers and lay on the bed. Sesshomaru just looked her body over a few times till Kagome caught him. Then he turned his eye contact to something else but he had a slight blush on his cheeks. Kagome just laughed slightly and he growled at her. She stopped about two minutes after and turned her body over and just started to lie on her stomach. It was ticking off Sesshomaru because Kagome was driving his hormones crazy now. She then moved her hair to her left shoulder and leaving her right shoulder wide open. Sesshomaru was growling at himself mentally and probably wanted to kick himself.

And of course… he couldn't take it anymore. He laid on top of Kagomes body and began to nudge at her neck for a while.

"Are you just trying to drive me insane?" He growled slightly and he was purring.

"Only a little, it's not like you're going to do anything to me are you?" She asked and he just gave her an evil smile.

He then bit her neck and punctured her skin. Automatically, Kagome turned onto her back with Sesshomaru still on top of her and bit him back. Kagome was now his, and Sesshomaru was now hers. No one would be allowed to tear them apart now. After they began to mark each other, Sesshomaru felt that is was time to fully claim her. As he was taking off her clothes he was licking her blood where he punched her as she was doing the same to him.

Shippo and Rin were bored and asked Miroku and Sango to come out and watch them play. Without any questions they went and watched the two kids play. The four of them decided to play tag.

Inuyasha was roaming around the castle remembering things that he forgot.

Flashback

"Princess Kagome!" A little boy was looking high and low for Kagome. "Princess!" It was poor little Inuyasha who was about to cry. But out of no where he was picked up and was hugged by a girl a little older than him.

"What's the matter Yashy?" The girl asked.

"Princess Kagome!" He hugged her tightly.

"Aw, were you looking for me? I'm sorry." She said sweetly.

"It's okay, I found you now!" He said happily.

"Yes you did." Kagome placed him down so he can walk.

"Princess?" An older boy came in.

"Hi Sesshy, it's good to see you." Kagome smiled.

"Why are you with young Inuyasha, he's not one of us." He hugged her.

"Big brother… doesn't like me?" Inuyasha was going to cry.

"Sesshy, look what you did." She picked up Inuyasha again. "Don't be mean." She said nicely.

"Keh, he's a hanyou and nothing more." He stated.

"He's your brother, and I don't care what he is! He still has feelings too you know." Kagome said it seriously and meant it.

"Alright, alright." He looked at his younger brother eye to eye. "I'm sorry." The began glaring at Kagome as she smiled.

"See? Doesn't it feel better being nice to him?" She asked.
"No… It doesn't" He then took his leave.

End Flashback

Inuyasha walked outside and watched the Miroku and Sango play tag with Shippo and Rin and decided to watch them. Miroku and Sango just stopped playing and looked at him.

"What?" Inuyasha asked curiously but getting annoyed.

They looked at him a little longer and then Miroku poked him with his staff. "You seem… different Inuyasha" Miroku stated.

"Yeah really, I mean, first you hate Kagome, and then now you're okay with her?" Sango added.

"Feh!" He replied as he was looking down.

Sango and Miroku just sighed at was about to go play with the kids and Inuyasha started to talk.

"I never hated her…" He said softly.

"Huh?" Sango said dumbly as if she was caught on guard by his words.

"She was always so nice to me when I was young… I remember now." He sighed as well.

"You just now realized she was nice to you!" Miroku stammered.

"I meant, when I was young… I even knew her. I may have been just a pup… but it's all coming back to me. She was like a big sister to me." He smirked. "A lot better than how Sesshomaru treated me." Inuyasha chuckled.

"So you're saying that you knew her long ago?" Miroku asked.

"Yeah… but she brain washed us to forget her… and why she left…" Inuyasha shook his head and stood up. "I'm going on a walk, don't follow me." He said sternly and walked away.

Shippo watched Inuyasha leave and jumped on Sango's shoulder. "Why did uncle leave?" He asked her.

"Uncle!" Sango was confused.

"Yeah? Uncle Inuyasha? Where is he going?" Shippo made Sango sound stupid.

"He went on a walk." Miroku answered.

"Oh… Rin, lets go follow him." He smelled the air. "Oh, I know why he left." He said sternly. "We'll be back!" Rin and Shippo ran off.

For some reason no ones else was really around except Miroku and Sango. But thankfully after 20 minutes Inuyasha and the 2 children came back.

"Why did you 3 have to leave?" Sango asked.

The three of them smelled the air.

"We'll be able to enter the castle soon." Inuyasha looked at it.

"It's going to be weird now." Shippo hopped on Inuyasha's shoulder.

"Won't they get mad if we enter?" Rin said grabbing onto Inuyasha's haori.

"Damnit Inuyasha, what's going on?" Sango was losing her patients.

They didn't reply and just starred at the castle and waited. After 5 more minutes they saw Kagome and Sesshomaru in their dog demon forms and they howled into the dark sky on top of the castle roofs. Inuyasha and Rin turned into their dog forms (Inuyasha turns into a huge dog because of his royal blood so he looks like Sesshomaru kind of, Rin is a normal sized dog that's black) and Shippo turned into his fox demon form and was the same size as Rin. They too began to howl at the night sky.

Miroku and Sango were at most confused. Then suddenly they heard more howls coming from everywhere. At least from the Westside from what they could tell.

"Miroku, what's happening?" Sango whispered.

"I haven't got a clue, there's no full moon." He replied back the same way.

"They're celebrating." Myouga said who had just appeared out of no where.

"Myouga?" Sango questioned.

"Celebrating what?" Miroku asked.

"Lord Sesshomaru and Lady Kagome are mates now. They are having it announced to all of Japan." Myouga stated.

"Ah, so they were getting busy with it while we were all out of the castle." Miroku grinned.

"I wouldn't have done that." Myouga proclaimed.

Shippo and Rin were looking at Miroku dangerously for talking about their new father that way. Miroku went behind Sango and was scared stiff because their eyes glowing red in the dark. They immediately turned back toward Kagome and Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru was now barking and howling as if telling something to other dog demons type breeds (Anything related to the dog family basically).

"What's he saying Myouga?" Sango asked.

"He's saying that if anyone dares tries to take Lady Kagome from him, he will have the right to tear their limbs off and kill them. And for others not to attack his pups which Shippo and Rin."

Sesshomaru ceased his barks and howls and Kagome began to do what he did.

"What is Lady Kagome saying?" Miroku asked.

"Saying that if there are wolf demons that lived in the west is to move north or be killed if seen in the Westside and Eastside." Myouga replied.

"She's still mad then." Sango blurted out.

"Who wouldn't, they killed her people!" Myouga shouted at Sango.

"Hey wait, they're speaking in dog, how can you understand them?" Miroku asked confusedly.

"I've served dog clans my whole life." He replied.

Kagome was finished and so was Sesshomaru. They jumped off the castle roof near the others. Rin and Shippo went toward Kagome and pounced on her and knocked her playful. Sesshomaru on the other hand glared at Inuyasha who was doing the same back but he was lying down. Sesshomaru wanted to fight his brother and began to growl. Kagome didn't want them to fight so she got up and walked to Inuyasha side so Sesshomaru would stop.

Sesshomaru snorted and looked away and Kagome walked toward and nudged his neck. Then they had both transformed into their original human like state. Inuyasha sat up and did the same. Rin and Shippo too decided to transform back.

"Lets go to the castle and get a good nights sleep." Kagome said to everyone and they all walked inside the castle to their rooms.
