DemonGirl-Setsuna: Hi there! Setsuna here!
Chapter 24 is the last chapter to this story and I never planned on writing a sequel for it!
But I do have another story I'll be posting as soon as I can (already has 23 chapters so far), but I'm not sure you are all ready for it!
Here is chapter 24!
Please Enjoy!

Ch. 24
Himiko Comes to
Visit and Other Surprises
------------------------------------
One Week Later…
In Kaede's Village…
"Shippo!", Midori calls, when she sees him come over the top of the hill.
"Midori?", Shippo gasps as he is hugged by his cousin; who was four inches taller than him.
"Oh Shippo, you're back!", Kagome says, walking towards them, holding InuYasha's hand.
"What happened between the two of you?", Shippo asks.
"We realized our feelings for each-other", InuYasha replies, smiling at Kagome.
"Koga tried to get in our way though", Kagome adds.
"Speaking of Koga, I took these from him", Midori says, holding up two jewel shards.
"You stole these from him?", Kagome asks.
"Yep!", she smiles, handing the shards to Kagome.
"Hey Kagome and Lord InuYasha!", Himiko calls out to them, while flying overhead.
"Hey Himiko, what is going on?", Kagome greets.
"Yeah, you look different", Midori says.
Himiko lands on the ground, "Guess what's different", she replies.
"I see your wings aren't black anymore", InuYasha pipes in.
"Oh you ruined the game", Himiko pouts.
"Wow, they aren't!", Midori exclaims.
"Yep, they're turning white, but Godai's are turning black", Himiko says, spreading her grey wings.
"So how is Godai?", InuYasha asks.
"Still awaiting judgment", she replies.
"Why so long?", InuYasha says.
"The high elders have to summon your father's spirit, so he can pass judgment on Godai", Himiko answers.
"My father?", InuYasha gasps.
"You are welcome to come", Himiko says, "Your mother will be there of course".
"That sounds great, let's go InuYasha", Kagome suggests.
"We're going", he says.
"Yeah! I'm going to find an outfit to wear", Kagome cheers.
"I'll help you, I think you should wear a kimono there", Midori says.
"I shouldn't wear my school uniform?", she asks.
"It's too short. InuYasha's mother is a noblewoman, remember", Himiko replies.
"You should wear that silk kimono you now own", Midori suggests.
"The one Godai had me wear?"
"Yes, you did look beautiful in it, Kagome", InuYasha says, starting to blush.
"You think so InuYasha. Ok, I will. I'll be right back", she leaves for Kaede's hut with Midori and Shippo right behind her.
"Hey Himiko, can you do me a favor?", InuYasha asks.
"I will do it", she replies.
"But I haven't asked the favor yet!", he exclaims.
"I know what you want, cause I read your mind and the answer is yes", she continues.
"Ok".
----------------------------------------------------
Two Minutes Later…
Miroku and Sango return riding in on Kirara.
"Hey InuYasha, where's Kagome?", Sango asks.
"She's inside Kaede's hut", he answers.
"Thanks", Sango says, heading towards the hut followed by Kirara.
"So who is this lovely lady?", Miroku asks.
"Oh that's Himiko and she's a…", he starts saying.
"My dear Himiko would you con…", he gets slapped across the face by Himiko.
"How dare you ask me, after what you promised Sango!", Himiko hisses.
InuYasha breaks out laughing.
(A/N: InuYasha laughing, what a surprise!)
"SANGO, YOU'RE WHAT?", Kagome screams inside the hut.
"I wonder what that is about?", InuYasha asks.
"Sango's pregnant", Himiko comments, "I can read minds all the way over here".
"She is? Miroku you lucky guy!", InuYasha says.
"Thanks", he sighs.
----------------------------------------------------
Ten Minutes Later…
Kagome comes out of Kaede's hut wearing the light blue silk kimono, followed by Sango, Shippo, Kirara and Midori.
"Kagome…", InuYasha gasps.
"What is it, InuYasha?", she asks.
InuYasha kneels in front of her and gently takes hold of her hand.
'Just have to do this the way it was done in the movies in Kagome's time', he thinks, a blush flares on his cheeks.
"InuYasha, what are you doing?", she says.
"Kagome, will you…", he takes a deep breath, "Will you marry me?"
"InuYasha…", Kagome gasps, "Of course I will", tears of happiness flow from her eyes, as she quickly hugs him tightly.
InuYasha slowly leads Kagome to stand in front of Himiko.
"Himiko, if you please", he says.
"Sure", Himiko agrees, "We have our witness", she nods towards Miroku, Sango, Kirara, Shippo and Midori, "Let's start".
Everyone sighs.
"We're all here for the marriage of InuYasha and Kagome", she states, "Do you InuYasha, take Kagome, willfully and honestly?"
"Yes, I do", he replies.
"Do you Kagome, take InuYasha, willfully and honestly?", Himiko continues.
"I do, yes", Kagome says, cheerfully.
"Is there anyone who wishes that these two should not wed, speak now or forever hold your peace", she quietly asks.
There is a tense silence.
"Then now I pronounce you husband and wife", she says, gladly, "You may kiss your bride".
"You don't have to tell me", he says, gently cupping Kagome's face and kisses her, deeply.
"The carriage to take all of you to the hall of high elders is waiting", Himiko says, after they break the kiss, "You can have your honeymoon after Godai's trial".
"We're coming", everyone says, filing into the carriage.
------------------------------------------------
An Hour Later…
"Godai, we the high elders sentence you to spend the rest of your life as a mortal", an elder says.
"You will be stripped of your powers as soon as possible", another elder says.
Godai glares at Himiko and InuYasha, his wrists and ankles bound up in chains.
"Guards, take Godai back to his cell", Himiko orders, coldly.
Two large angels escorts Godai from the room.
"I still have no idea what is going on", Shippo says.
"We'll tell you later", InuYasha and Kagome both reply.
"InuYasha", Izayoi says from behind him.
"Mother", he gasps, turning around to face her and also sees a man five inches taller then himself standing next to his mother.
(A/N: Guess who it is?)
"InuYasha, let me introduce you to your father", Izayoi replies.
InuTaisho just smiles softly at his youngest son.
InuYasha carefully looks him over, noting the similarities; long silvery-white hair, warm gold eyes, same cocky smile, and unruly bangs, it was like looking in a mirror, the only differences were InuTaisho's hair was pulled up in a high ponytail, his ears were pointed; elfish-like, and he had one purple stripe on each cheek.
'But Kagome did tell me that when I turn youkai, a purple stripe appears on my cheeks', InuYasha adds to himself.
InuYasha fights the urge to run over and hug his father, but he settles with just saying, "Father…", with tears brimming his eyes.
THE END!
