Kajiba smirked victoriously at all the other demons glaring at him. They couldn't do anything, because Kagome was still in his arms, and if any of the other demons made a move, Kagome could be killed. "What's with all the faces now, eh? I'm just taking this little vixen out for a stroll, maybe a rut or two, but no harm done there, huh?"

He only laughed when Inuyasha's eyes made it clear that he was furious. Kagome on the other hand, was thinking hard. She had lotsa of plans, the original just kicking him in the groin, or biting him, there were lotsa of ways to distract him! But there were lots of ways to get killed too. "Let her go asshole," Inuyasha growled, his eyes a blazing red. Kajiba only raised an eyebrow at him. "Now why would I do that, Inuyasha? Letting a perfectly good girl go? Now you wouldn't even do that." He snorted, Seshoumaru nodding at the other demonic soldiers, the eight of them circling around Kajiba with swords raised.

Kajiba sighed, shaking his head. "You seem to forget that-" "That not all girls are helpless!" Kajiba looked down to see Kagome shout, and suddenly put a rather harsh punch to his gut, and pulled him until he crashed into Inuyasha's little table. Kajiba's eyes were wide, shock evident in his eyes as he watched Kagome crack her knuckles with a powerful aura surrounding her entire body. Inuyasha, his brother and the others were starring at her too in great surprise. There was something she hadn't told them, but she wasn't done yet. Kajiba got up quickly, snarling and glaring at her now.

"Bitch, what are you?" He growled, cracking his knuckles and getting ready to attack her. Kagome looked at him with a confused look. "What does it look like? I just trained with my father at home." She said, still not realizing what they were all starring about. Kajiba sputtered, pointing at her accusingly, "Your eyes, your ears, you just transformed!" He snarled, making her flinch. Kagome put a shaking hand to her ear, and gasped to find there was nothing where it used to be. "Up on your head." Inuyasha snorted, Kagome whipping around to look at him with a feared expression. Placing it on her head, she felt something fluffy twitching, and her hearing was sharper. Kajiba took the distraction as a chance and slammed his shoulder into her stomach, Kagome gasping as he breath was knocked out of her lungs. Inuyasha caught her as Seshoumaru sent the soldiers at Kajiba.

"Kagome? Kagome!" Kagome groaned, trying to breath properly. Inuyasha frowned, as he watched the simple cut on her throat heal in a matter of thirty seconds. She had demon blood in her, and she hadn't known it? It only took five minutes until Kajiba was caught and in a binding of ropes again. He snarled in frustration, and promised them all that he'd kill them as they dragged him out and back to the room he stayed in last night. "So this vixen has demon blood in her after all. What is the meaning of this?" Seshoumaru asked, as Kagome got her breath back. Kagome shook her head, looking confused as ever. "I don't know, but I didn't do that out of demon blood or what ever! My father trained me!" Kagome protested, Inuyasha frowning.

Kagome looked like she was telling the truth. Could it be true that her will to fight and survive had brought out some kinda of demon blood in her? "But, my father was human, and so was my mother!" Kagome shouted, as Inuyasha set her on the bed to sit on. Seshoumaru put a claw to her cheek, and cut into her skin a little, only to make a single droplet of blood to appear. Kagome looked up at him with fear in her eyes, wondering if he was going to kill her. Instead, Seshoumaru scooped the blood up onto a finger and tasted it, Kagome and Inuyasha watching him intently. After a minute of thinking, and leaving the two in an intense delay, he smiled down at Kagome. "We've found a lost princess."

*****************

People gathered around in the Kakugo area for they had an announcement that there was a special guest that they were to meet. "Who would it be? I don't think we'll be having a war anytime soon. We just had one last week and we kicked their asses!" "Heh, maybe they thought they could beat us up, or maybe the South have got some plans." The murmurs kept going around the table of the western demons, waiting for the special arrival. As soon as Seshoumaru appeared everyone hushed.

"As I have informed you all, I have a special guest to show you all. You will all be very pleased, I assure you." His smiled was promising, and the demons started to chatter and guess whom the special someone was. Seshoumaru raised an eyebrow and all went silent again. He turned towards big double doors. "Inuyasha, bring her in." "Oi, Seshoumaru." Seshoumaru turned back around the table calmly to see a large bulky demon, looking rather annoyed. "Don't tell me it's that girl with Inuyasha. We already met her!" Seshoumaru glared at him silently.

"Aah, indeed she is the same girl. Sort of. Take a look at her." They all turned towards Inuyasha, who was currently helping Kagome get through without tripping on the many layers of silk kimono she was dressed. Her hair was neatly combed and silky, light as snow. The kimono had many patterns, of Sakura blossoms engraved in it carefully with outstanding results. All the demons in the hall gasped and starred at her beauty, but at her features. Her eyes were a rich pearl blue colour, and very catty-like. Her nose hinted a canine or feline nose, and one dark blue streak on each cheek, going from the middle of her neck to across her cheek. (I'll do some illustration sometime) her small hands held onto the ends of her kimono sleeves, and clearly her claws were there, long and killer sharp.

Her claws even had a hint of blue to them, and when she pulled her sleeves up a bit, two streaks of the same deep blue colour were on each arm. Inuyasha looked sort of proud but a little confused anyway.

Seshoumaru beckoned her over, and she took a few delicate steps and bowed to him politely. Then she exploded. Looking up with an angry give-me-an-explanation-now-or-I'll-kill-you look. "I was nice and silent back when you were dressing me up, now you better explain what the hell I am or I'm gonna yank that bloody tail out of your ass!" the demons burst into laughter, Kagome pouting as she crossed her arms, before making a lunge for his fluffy tail. Seshoumaru swiftly jumped away, and picked her up by the back of her obi instead. Kagome growled and swiped at him, but Seshoumaru just moved her away. Inuyasha rolled his eyes, but had a smile too.

"As you have heard, this little kit has no idea of her appearance-"

"Hey I thought the Princess of the North was missing!"

Seshoumaru nodded, Kagome starting to calm down as he let her on her feet, who glared at him with a huff. Seshoumaru chuckled, and petting her flickering ears, Kagome grumbling but quickly altering it into a blissful purr. Inuyasha hugged her from behind, Kagome smiling finally, as Inuyasha purred and nuzzled her neck lovingly. The demons 'aww'ed, and Kagome blushed, but Seshoumaru stopped his little massage on her ears to her disappointment.

"Anyway, Kagome is indeed the Princess of the north. She has the blood of Kourin and Katari. Although they maybe long past away, she is a survivor, I assume." There was an uproar of cheers, and Inuyasha felt and heard the sudden jolt of shock of her heart. He could feel it thudding against her chest, and he gave her comforting purrs and kisses on her neck. Seshoumaru held up a hand with a grin, and they all settled in a few seconds.

"I'm sure you will like my next news." Seshoumaru said, as he cupped Kagome chin, looked into her demonic eyes deeply, and said calmly, although he managed to grin without getting Kagome anymore pissed off. "We will be reporting these news to her, father, first thing in the morning." Did I say cheers before? Well this was an uproar. The demons were rather excited and some were already organising who would kill who. "I'm so gonna kill the King! No one else touches!" there were groans and challenges to take the spot to kill the King of the South,

Meanwhile Kagome looked on in horror. "But, he's my father!" "No, he is not." Kagome looked up to Seshoumaru, who held up her hand to her face. "Look at yourself Kagome, are you human? No, you are won of us. Your current father betrayed you, denied your original blood. What about your real father and mother? How would they react to your decision?" Kagome frowned, confused but trying to remember any of her memories. So that was the reason she could never remember her past, nothing came to mind from the age of four.

Inuyasha could basically smell her discomfort and confusion. "Seshoumaru, I'll take her upstairs. I don't think she's up to it yet-" "I'm comin' too." A gruff voice chortled, and Inuyasha found one of his good mates (like as in friends) Touki. "Why?" Seshoumaru queried, Touki nodding at Kagome. "Jikou is still alive, no doubt in the southern lands?" Kagome nodded, Touki grunting in response. "Well then he would have most likely used his spell on her? The forgetful one?" Kagome looked confused for a while… before something came to her. Her eyes flickered once, twice, before memories came flying through her mind, as she shrieked and tried to back away, only to thump into Inuyasha's hard chest.

Inuyasha instinctively held onto her, looking at her with concern evident in his eyes. When Seshoumaru, Touki and Inuyasha looked into her eyes, they were unblinking, and wide and she was silent for a while, looking as though she weren't seeing anything. All too suddenly, Kagome collapsed, Inuyasha quick to hold her limp body so she wouldn't hit the ground. Touki let a light blue bubble escape from his palm, and it flew towards Kagome, and landed softly on her forehead, until it disappeared with a gentle * pop * and a dark blue moon was presented where it had landed. "There you go." Inuyasha looked up at Touki with a worried expression. "And what the hell was that?" He growled, pulling Kagome's body against his own tightly, and lifting her up into his arms bridal style.

"I just let her know what happened in the past. When she wakes up, she might be a little jumped, but don't worry. She won't be ht, she'll remember about her parents though." Touki informed his friend, Inuyasha sighing. "Is she gonna be pissed off when she waked u?" He asked, just before he left to take the stairs. "Seshoumaru began to follow, as he watched Touki think while scratching the back of his head. "I don't think so… unless she's close to her heat." He chuckled, and let Inuyasha and Seshoumaru resume their walk up the long staircase.

***********************

Kagome came to after a good four hours of sleep, Inuyasha noticing first since he was lying on his stomach on his bed, holding a goblet of sake. Seshoumaru sat on the bed; he too had a goblet of sake. He was leaning back with one hand, looking casual, as he and his brother ended their conversation of plans for tomorrow with the sound of Kagome's rousing. "Ah, so the princess awakens." Seshoumaru drawled, Inuyasha rolling his eyes, watching Kagome sit up with a feminine groan. "What the fuck are you two bastards doing drinking sake here?" Was her first growl of annoyance, and that only got the brothers lightly laughing.

"Good afternoon to you too, Kagome." Inuyasha purred, Kagome instinctively patting him on the head. Then she felt like falling back down. She flopped back on the bed with a tired sigh, and put the covers over her face. Inuyasha blinked, and looked up at his brother.

Seshoumaru shrugged, and whipped the blanket away from the peeved girl, which got a snarl out of her. "Whichever one of you's did that's gonna die a really slow and painful death." she grumbled, her eyes still not opening. Seshoumaru growled back at her in a non-threatening manner. "Well if some vixen weren't a lazy ass then it wouldn't be a problem." Kagome snapped her eyes open and sat up, glaring straight at Seshoumaru, then to a sweat dropping Inuyasha.

"Grumpy?" "I feel like shit." Seshoumaru rolled his eyes and sighed. Inuyasha was looking a little stunned. "Her demon blood possesses her to talk a little more, ill-manneredly. Like you, Inuyasha." Seshoumaru said for example, Inuyasha giving him a what-do-you-mean-by-that glare. Kagome yawned, her tongue curling up like a cat yawning, as she stretched. Inuyasha found movement behind her and slapped a hand on it.
He was rather surprised when Kagome yelped instantly and grabbed his hand, making him let of something he recognised as furry.

"That hurt!" She growled, looking sourly upset that he'd done that. Before she knew it, Seshoumaru had picked her up and was investigating her ass. "Kagome, as nice as your ass is, there's a tail sticking out of it." Kagome growled at him, and he let her go with a chuckle. Inuyasha's eyes never left her tail where it twitched and flipped constantly.

"What are you starring at?!" she growled, frustrated as her claws itched to claw something. Inuyasha poked her tail, which got another pissed off hiss from her. Seshoumaru shook his head. "Inuyasha had always had a habit of chasing things, furry things to be exact." Kagome growled, and sat in a comfortable position, which ended up in a cat-like crouch. Seshoumaru looked at her position thoughtfully. "I think we have a half cat demon half dog demon." Kagome meowed at Inuyasha, who grinned at her cute posture.

"So she's a kitten?"

Seshoumaru nodded. "I'm sure she is, she can probably transform though. I don't know what her transformation would look like, but it could be interesting. Never seen one before." Inuyasha playfully pounced on her, Kagome grumbling, but he wrapped his arms around her and spooned behind her. Kagome settled quickly to purring, holding his hands comfortingly, and slowly her eyes closed. Seshoumaru smiled at the site, as Inuyasha drew one hand away to pet her lovingly.

"I will see you tomorrow morning, Inuyasha, Kagome." With that, Seshoumaru left the two together to give them some privacy. Inuyasha kissed her cheek gently, Kagome wriggling around until she could curl into Inuyasha's embrace, hiding her face under his chin, and purred contently. "Sweet kitten…" he whispered, encouraging her to sleep peacefully while he purred back in reply. Kagome nudged his chin with her nose, Inuyasha looking down at her with a smile.

"What?"

He asked, Kagome trying to reach up to his eye level. Understanding what she wanted, Inuyasha leaned down at caress her lips with his own. Kagome leaned in, returning the tender affection, before he broke it with a tiny lick on her lips. "Sleep Kagome, we'll see the Southern lord tomorrow." Kagome nodded. "Okay. But don't hurt Souta, he didn't do anything wrong." Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. "Who's Souta?" Kagome squirmed back under his embrace and got comfortable before answering, "He was my brother. But I guess not, huh?" Inuyasha kissed her forehead and sighed. "Okay, I promise. But he if attacks, I'll be forced to." Kagome nodded at that, satisfied with his answer, and finally yawned again.

He promptly pulled on her tail for fun, and when she yelped again he couldn't help but chuckle. Kagome glared up at him, and nipped his cheek, Inuyasha sighing again. "Okay, now go to sleep Kagome." "You yank on my tail again and I'll bite your ears off." Inuyasha sweat dropped, but reassured her he wouldn't do such a thing again. "Good night…" she mumbled, already half asleep. Tucking her against him, Inuyasha let himself fall into a deep, blissful sleep.
