Sesshomaru and Kagome: An Elevator Ride

It had been twelve months since the incident with Inuyasha and Sesshomaru. Kagome and Sesshomaru continued skating on the personal rink Sesshomaru had for those twelve months and Kagome and Sesshomaru kept getting better and better. They both could do perfect triple axels and twists and turns that made even the pros' jaws drop. Kagome was so happy for herself and Sesshomaru was proud that they finally were accomplishing something together.

He signed them up for a pair skating competition in the month of January. Kagome and Sesshomaru practised the routine regularly, perfecting it and making sure there were no flaws. And before long, Rin made their outfits before running off with Kohaku (her newly acquainted boyfriend) again. Kagome's was something like an aerobic outfit with a Rin twist. The outfit was white, with see-through silk skirt that blew easily. She had silver sleeves that were silk as well and loose except the elastic on her wrist to make sure it didn't catch on anything. Kagome loved it, but Sesshomaru gave it a sceptical look since Kagome would be almost leaving nothing to the imagination.

Sesshomaru's outfit was silver, like his hair, but a shade darker than it. It shined and was made out of regular cotton, which Sesshomaru disliked since he preferred silk. Kagome told him he would most likely freeze, or at least a human would, if he wore silk, so he finally agreed. It was almost suit like, and matched Kagome's, which made them look more like partners.

The day of the competition, all their friends attended. They stretched before entering the ice and put on a show that got them the top marks. 10, their average. They watched on the sidelines as the other groups performed. Many fell or stumbled, losing marks. But Kagome and Sesshomaru were completely shocked when Naraku skid onto the ice. And his partner, the infamous Kagura. Sesshomaru had to walk away; he could not watch his last partner's performance.

Kagome, though, watched and couldn't stop laughing. Both had no trust for their partner, so their twists and turns and axels always were slightly wobbly, and when Naraku went to grab Kagura's waist to haul her into the air and then skate around with her above his head, they got into an argument. They got 1, their average.

Sesshomaru returned and found out the story and couldn't help but laugh as well. He then explained Kagura had that same problem with him.

They stood, waiting for the results. They knew they had won automatically. And when their name was announced, Kagome was shocked when Sesshomaru pulled her to the middle of the ice, with all the cameras on them. Then as the crowd quieted down by the speaker's words, Sesshomaru pulled out a ring.

"Kagome, marry me, please," Sesshomaru begged, a smile on his face. And, in front of thousands of nations, Kagome agreed. A kiss that was broadcasted across the globe was the closing event and Kagome was almost winded when it was over. She would happily marry Sesshomaru. She loved him, and he loved her. Why shouldn't she?

Inuyasha couldn't stop bickering afterwards that Sesshomaru forced her into it, but Kagome's glare shut him up. Kagome showed all her friends the medium rock. Sango even made a joke about it: "He's rich. Couldn't have gotten it bigger?"

Kagome was happy he didn't buy her a huge rock or the most expensive ring in the world. She just wanted a normal one. A regular one.

Kouga left away on a trip to another country with Ayame and they got married and settled down there. Inuyasha went on a rampage one day on the street and was sent to a mental hospital for a year. Kikyou assisted him on the rampage and was sent there as well. The Killers (Bankotsu, Mukotsu, Jakotsu, Suikostu, Kyokotsu, Renkotsu, Ginkotsu) were convicted of killing over three million people in Japan and sent to many different countries to do their time. Rin was engaged to Kohaku and then suddenly he went missing. Jaken remained a loyal friend to Sesshomaru, but always kept an eye on Kagome. Naraku filed bankrupt and his company went down, along with his girlfriend and employees. Sesshomaru was gleeful when he heard that news. Kanna disappeared from Inu Corp when Dark Corp filed for bankrupt as well. Sango and Miroku finally got engaged and married, living in their tight house.

Overall, the group live happily. Kagome and Sesshomaru never had the huge problems like before, but pity arguements, but they never broke up entirely. Kagome, though, had to show Sesshomaru this cute letter she got from Kouga.

Dear Kagome,

Ayame and I are doing fine. Living nicely in our home here in Japan. No kids yet, though I never give up. Hope you and Sesshomaru are doing great. We just heard that one of the Killers were sent to our prison. We'll keep an eye out for any break outs, as well as yourself. I heard three are kept in your area, while three others are mysterious around the world. Keep in touch, Kagome. We miss you dearly.

Kouga

P.S. If Sesshomaru and you ever have any BIG problems, call and I'll be right over. I'll always love you Kagome and don't ever forget it. XOXOXO Love forever!

Sorry this is such a quickly wrapped up ending, but I just needed to end it. My ends usually are bad... Sorry...

Also, please tell me how you like this. I'm really upset to end this story, especially since I loved all the reviews I received. I even loved writing it.
