Ch.17 Returning Home

They had finally made it to the castle. They were instantly met with chaos. Servants came out immediately to get Sesshomaru. Soon, they were being led to InuTaisho's study, where Kikyo was yelling at InuTaisho. Sesshomaru let out a low snarl/growl.

Kikyo at once whipped around to stare at Sesshomaru. She didn't see Kagome because she stood behind Sesshomaru. Kikyo walked up to Sesshomaru and smirked.

"Did you forget I was a miko you stupid dog," snapped Kikyo.

Sesshomaru raised his eyebrow at this. No he had not forgotten. InuTaisho ducked behind his desk because he had smelled Kagome. He knew exactly what was going to happen. You never insult a just mated pair.

Shippo got out of Kagome's arms when he saw her face. He raced over and joined InuTaisho. He knew that he would be safe there.

Kagome was pissed. Her sister, who had insulted her every day of her life, had now gone an insulted her mate. She could forgive her for insulting her self, but not her mate. She had just stepped over the boundary.

Kagome used her demonic speed to get in front of Sesshomaru. She held her head down as she came in front of him. Her body shook just a little. Kikyo thought it was because she was crying.

"You see Kagome," Kikyo said," Not even in that disgusting demon form nobody wants you. That is how it will always be."

"You are wrong Kikyo," Kagome said," This time you are dearly wrong. You see you were always wrong."

Now Kagome looked up, her eyes were red rimed. They were slowly becoming fully red. Kagome took a step forward. She flexed her claws right before Kikyo's face. Allowing Kikyo to see the venom, this slowly collected at its tips.

Kikyo slowly backed away. She shook her head in disbelief. This could not be happening. Her sister had always been so kind. What could have possible changed to make her like this?

"You forget I am a miko. You are a demon," Kikyo said with confidence.

"Yeah, so am I," Kagome said as she took a swipe at Kikyo.

Kikyo couldn't do anything. She was too slow to dodge. Her powers wouldn't work against another miko. She was completely hopeless.

Kagome could fill this odd swirl before she blacked out, or merely her whole world went red. Sesshomaru could sense her bloodlust. He quickly jumped forward to knock her unconscious.

Kagome rapidly turned to dodge. She let out a hiss as she faced him. Before Sesshomaru knew what happened, Kagome was falling to the ground only to be caught by InuTaisho.

InuTaisho let out a sigh as he handed her over to Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru snatched her out of his father's arms. He picked her up bridle style, and carried her to his chambers. He had been a little worried when his father knocked her out, but then he remembered all the times he had been knocked out.

Shippo now sat on InuTaisho's desk as he listened to what InuTaisho was saying. So far, InuTaisho said he could stay as long as he wanted. There was also a small smirk behind his eyes, but Shippo couldn't see what it was about.

Soon, Shippo found him self in a girl's arms as she hugged him. When the girl had stopped, he noticed she looked sort of like Kagome. The two of them was left alone by InuTaisho. He could tell these two would become close friends, or maybe something else.

InuTaisho went to tell InuYasha the sad news or rather happy news of Kikyo's death. This might bring him a huge headache, but he would take the headache if it meant she was gone.

( Later)

By the seconded week, the whole castle was soon back to normal. The servants were happy Kikyo was gone. Kagome had woken up to be in her usual happy self. Shippo and Rin were in the same room sound asleep.

Life seemed to be going just perfectly, except for the occasional smack they heard. Sango and Miroku had returned from her village. Miroku had gone because he couldn't get enough of her. Sango was ready to kill him.

InuTaisho had called Kagome and Sesshomaru to his study that had been put back to normal. They were sitting at the desk as they listened about how Sesshomaru would recede to the throne.

"So, I will have grandchildren," InuTaisho said as he gave Kagome a smile," I am so glad that you two got along so well. That in two weeks you are with pup."

"WHAT," yelled Kagome.

"You mean you didn't know," asked InuTaisho in worry.

"No, did you Sesshomaru," Kagome said as she turned to Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru had all of a sudden found the ceiling very interesting. The past few weeks Sesshomaru had learned about her obvious mood swings. He tried to avoid them as much as possible.

Kagome's eyes soon became tiny slights as she glared at Sesshomaru. He knew and he hadn't told her. She was going to have a pup. She couldn't stay mad when she was going to have a baby.

Soon, Sesshomaru found him self being hugged. He was utterly shocked. Kagome was overly excited. InuTaisho smiled at the couple. He had known from the very beginning that they would love each other. After all, he was the one that didn't tell his son of the prophecy concerning the two.

Kit:I am not sure if this is longer or not! I try.

Wiz: Thanks to all that reviewed and the story is about to come to a close!
