Well it has been a very long time since I updated. It seems I apologize at the beginning of every chapter. I had wanted this to be finished long ago but I kept getting sidetracked with school or just no motivation. But this my friends is the end. Thanks for all of you who reviewed and kept my spirits up. Sorry I made you wait so long.

Chapter 11 Conclusion

Koryu walked into the audience room where his father was sitting. He was looking out the windows with the light streaming in. "It seems I

managed to get here after my brothers and sisters after all," he smiled. "You really should visit them time to time when they aren't making

trouble you know," Sesshomaru laughed. "I've heard that you ran into your cousin recently at the hospital." "Yes, that was rather a shock. It

brought back many fond memories," Koryu seemed to be lost in thought. "He was a good friend...shame that his lifespan was only a 1/4th of

a demons. His life was like a candle burning so brightly then extinguished." "I am sure the cycle will continue. Noone is gone forever you of

all people should know this," Sesshomaru reminded him. "Yes I remember. I don't have the ability to forget. But it wouldn't honor him if I

were to forget him, though it still feels weird when I sense them coming into this time."

"So how is your new pup doing?" the his father asked. "Ah, he's a handful, but that doesn't surprise me. His older brother and sister have

been waiting for his arrival. Already they ask me when the youngest girl will be born!" Koryu chuckled. "They are downstairs visiting with

Mom." "I remember his soul. It reminded me of Inuyasha the way he used his anger to fight. Hopefully in this life he can learn to fight with his

mind instead of emotions," Sesshomaru mused. "Well Uncle never did learn but that didn't stop him from becoming a great warrior. It would

keep you on you toes," Koryu teased him.

Time passed as it always does. The inu family saw the rebirth of old friends and family. Sesshomaru continued his reign until he finally

decided to retire and rest, Koryu always by his side. Ryuki inherited the throne and asked her brother to be her advisor. She didn't ask him

to be her general because she knew she could never obtain the same loyalty as her father did. Her mate eventually earned that right. Battles

came and went, and the time still flowed. Until all faded away and the future generations read about the great demon lord and his conquest,

the general that was by his side, his hanyou brother alongside the miko he loved, and the world he captured.

Finally the end. Sorry it is short, and it may be to some unsatisfactory. But there wasn't much left to write since the last chapter. I hope this gives those who have been waiting closure. Thank you for all of your support and kind reviews.
