Kagome's and Smart Bet's recovery.
Six hours have passed and Leann and Sesshomaru haven't heard anything about Kagome of Smart Bet. Just then a man leading a red chestnut colt appeared. The colt's front right leg is in a cast. Sesshomaru stood and asked "How is he doctor?" The vet patted Smart Bet and said "Luckily the break isn't serious." Leann looked up and asked "Will he ever race again?" The vet nodded and "Yes he'll race again." Sesshomaru thanked the vet and put Smart Bet in his stall. The he and Leann sat down. And waited for news about Kagome. An hour later Sesshomaru's cell phone ran. He opened his phone and said "Hello." Sesshomaru listened for five minutes and then said "Ok Inuyasha we'll see you soon." He hung up and said "Kagome is ok and she and Inuyasha are on their way."
Leann nodded and asked "Does she have any injuries?" Sesshomaru sighed and said "Yes her right leg is broken." Just then Inuyasha appeared. Sesshomaru stood and asked "Where is Kagome?" Inuyasha sighed and said "She's in the truck. We are packing and leaving." Ten minutes later they are all packed and loaded. Sesshomaru and Leann got into the back. Kagome is in the passengers seat asleep. Four days later they are back in Louisville Kentucky. Inuyasha stopped at the apartment complex. Leann thanked everyone and went in. Once at Pride and Joy after parking by the training barn. Inuyasha took Kagome up to the main house. Back at the truck Sango carefully unloaded Smart Bet. Then Sesshomaru unloaded Sounga. And Miroku unloaded Smart Lady.
A month has passed it's now July. Both Kagome's and Smart Bet's legs are out of their casts. Kagome now wears a leg brace. Sesshomaru made a deal with Inuyasha. And Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sesshomaru are partners. They are trying to train Sounga but he's acting up. Ever since they came home without Leann Sounga has been acting up. So they decided to find Leann. Before Sango, Kohaku, and Shippo left for Churchill. Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, and Miroku asked them to look for Leann. After they left Sesshomaru went into the training barn. He went up to Sounga's stall. Sesshomaru petted the red chestnut colt and said " Don't worry boy we'll find Leann." When he heard the name Leann Sounga's ears perked forward.
That afternoon when Sango's car pulled in. Sesshomaru came out of the mare and stallion barn. When he saw Leann get out of Sango's car. Sesshomaru ran up to her, hugged her, and said "I missed you." Leann pulled away, smiled, and said "I missed you too." With that said Sesshomaru showed Leann to her room in the main house. While Leann unpacked Kagome crutched into Leann's room. She smiled and said "Welcome to your new home Leann." The blond haired woman nodded and said "Thank you Kagome." The Leann asked "How is your leg?" Kagome smiled and said "It's healing and I'm aloud to put weight on it. But I have to use the crutches." Leann nodded and said "Now if you excuse me I'm going to see Sounga."
With that said she left the house and went into the training barn. She smiled and said "Oh Sounga I'm here." The colt heard her and neighed. Leann ran down to Sounga's stall and went in. She wrapped her arms the colt's neck and said "I missed you boy." Sounga nickered and nuzzled his friend. After hugging Sounga Leann took him out of his stall. She put him in the cross ties and started to groom him. Just then Inuyasha appeared asking "How did you know I want you to take him to the track." Leann giggled and said "I didn't know I was going to spend some time with him. But I will get him ready for to go to the training track."
After grooming Sounga Leann picked out his feet. Then she put on his tack. Leann then got on Sounga and rode him to the training track. Once on the track Inuyasha said "Warm him up and meet Sango at the practice gate." After warming up Sounga she rode him up to the practice gate. Leann saw Sango waiting for her. She also saw Inuyasha at the rail. And she also saw Kagome sitting on a chair. Inuyasha looked at Leann and said "Today we'll work on getting him used to the gate. Just then Kohaku rode onto the track on Lady's Night. And Shippo rode onto the track on Priestess. Then Miroku and Sesshomaru joined Inuyasha and Kagome. Leann asked "Why are Lady's Night and Priestess on the track?" Sesshomaru smiled and said "If Sounga does well in the gate. We'll see how he does with company."
Leann nodded and had the colt walk into the gate. Sango closed the gate and heard Sounga snort. In the gate Leann kept the colt calm. Kagome pressed the button and Leann had Sounga walk out of the gate. Then Inuyasha said "Very good now let's see how well he breaks from the gate. When you come out only go two furlongs." Leann nodded and rode to the back of the gate. Keeping the colt calm she had him walk into the gate. Sango closed the gate and this time she didn't hear Sounga snort. Kagome pressed the button and Sounga came out well. Inuyasha yelled "Ok Shippo and Kohaku time for the next test!" Kohaku and Shippo rode up to Leann then they rode to the gate.
Once they were in the gate Inuyasha said "The gate you're in is at the begging of the home stretch. You're finish line is at the end of the home stretch where Sesshomaru is." With that said Kagome pressed the button. The three horses came out of the gate great. At the same time Sesshomaru, Miroku, and Inuyasha started their stop watches. Priestess has the lead. But Sounga is right behind her. Since Lady's Night loves the turf. She is fighting Kohaku so he took her off the track. Meanwhile Sounga and Priestess are half way to the finish line. So Leann yelled "Give me what you got tough guy!" Sounga changed leads and ran by Priestess. Shippo tried to get Priestess to catch Sounga. But the red chestnut colt is to fast for her.
When Sounga ran by Sesshomaru he stopped his stop watch. And when Priestess ran by Miroku he stopped his stop watch. Kagome asked "How did they do honey?" He smiled and said "Sounga got forty-two seconds and Priestess got forty-four seconds." It's now August it's been three months since the accident at Belmont. Kagome is walking without her crutches. Smart Bet is doing well also he is back in training. Shippo and Kim have left the farm to live on their own. And Kagome and Inuyasha have decided to start a family. And now Kagome is one month pregnant. Sounga has been in four races and won all four. Inuyasha hopes to enter Sounga in the Breeder's Cup Juvenile. Smart Bet won't be back in shape for the Breeder's Cup Classic. So Sesshomaru hopes to enter him in the Dubai World Cup next year.
And speaking of Sessohmaru he and Leann have been married for two weeks now. They plan on going on their honeymoon after the breeder's cup. Leann and Sesshomaru are going on a trip to Hawaii. Sango and Miroku plan on starting a family after the triple crown next year. Kohaku and Rin are still living in the medium sized house. Right now Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and Miroku. Are timing Sounga, Fire Spirit, and Smart Lady. Leann is riding Sounga, Sango is riding Fire Spirit, and Rin is riding Smart Lady. And Kagome is watching the horses work out.
Just then a dark voice said "My, my Sounga does look good." Inuyasha turned around and asked "What do you want Naraku?" He smirked and said "I'm here to make a bet with you." Inuyasha glared at Naraku and asked "What kind of bet?" Naraku looked at Sounga and asked "Are you going to enter him in the juvenile?" Inuyasha nodded and asked "Yes now what kind of bet?" Still smirking Naraku said "I'm entering my colt Titanic in the juvenile. If my colt wins you give me Sounga. But if your colt wins I'll give you Titanic." Inuyasha smirked and said "You're on Naraku now get off our farm." With that said Naraku got into his car and left. Kagome looked at Inuyasha and asked "Are you nuts?" He shook his head and said "No I'm not I just believe in Leann and Sounga."
After the horses were cooled down, untacked, bathed, and put into their stalls. Leann, Sango, Rin, Kohaku, and Kagome left the barn. Sesshomaru, Miroku, and Inuyasha are in the training barn office. Inuyasha has told his parnters about his bet with Naraku. Sesshomaru is looking for Titanic's pedigree on the barn's lap top computer. Sounga's sire is Tetsusaiga and his dam is a chestnut mare named Sword Queen. Miroku asked "Inuyasha do you really think Sounga can beat Titanic?" Inuyasha nodded and said "Yes I do." Just then Sesshomaru said "I found Titanic's pedigree his sire is Rock Hard Ten. And his dam is Storm Flag Flying." After talking the three men went up to the main house.
