Chapter 7 A few answers about the past.

"How's my woman been doing has dog breath been takin' care of ya. Kagome you are a dog demon. You are beautiful now we can have full blooded demon pups...they will be part dog, part wolf but still full demon."

"Kouga what are you.." Kagome was cut short by a pair of lips on her's. It took her a little while to comprehend what was happening she didn't get a chance to push him off of her before a white blur knocked him into a tree.

"Kagome what is this useless wolf doing here?" a very angry Sesshoumaru asked, never taking his eyes off of Kouga.

"Umm Lord Sesshoumaru this is Kouga...He is one of our allies." Kagome said sightly amazed at the fact Kouga was still alive.

Sesshoumaru gave a slight growl and dropped the struggling Kouga to the ground. Sesshoumaru stepped over him, and over to Kagome who he had accidently knocked over when grabbing Kouga. Sesshoumaru helped Kagome up and steadied her on her feet before asking her, "Why did this wolf call you his 'woman'?"

"'Cause she is my woman. You are as thick headed as the mutt face." Kouga said to Sesshoumaru who wasn't appreciating Kouga insulting him.

Kagome noticed Sesshoumaru's growl and his eyes were turning red around the edges. She walked over to him and put her head under his chin and gave a soft purr and a small whimper to show she was submitting to his demonic side. "Please my lord don't hurt Kouga he just doesn't think before he says anything." she said in a soft, small voice.

Sesshoumaru immediately calmed and all the red left from his eyes and he looked down at Kagome and wrapped his arms around her, shocking Kouga.

"What are you doing Kagome? He is a smelly dog...why would you want to be with him instead of me?" Kouga asked, his voice shaking sightly.

"Kouga I don't love you. I want you to go...be happy. Without me. I still want you to be my friend, but only a friend." Kagome said as she was now being fully supported by Sesshoumaru, she couldn't trust her knees at the moment.

"K-Kagome I-I don't know what to say." Kouga was getting angry now. He inhaled. When he did the first scent to hit his nose was none other that Kagura. Kouga growled. "What is that stupid bitch doing here. She killed my brothers. Since you don't want me Kagome, I'll take Kagura's life and be on my way."

As Kouga was growling and getting into a fighting stance, Rin and Shippo were just getting up from their afternoon nap. Rin took one look at Kouga and screamed "Mama" she ran into Kagome's open arms and started to cry. Kagome was asking what was wrong as Shippo came up and stood beside Sesshoumaru. Rin looked up from Kagome's arms and looked into her face, "R-rin's other mommy and daddy were killed by h-his p-pack. D-don't let h-him g-get R-r-rin."

Kagome tightened her hold on Rin to keep from lashing out and killing Kouga right there on the spot. Kouga was squaring off with Kagura and Kanna, Kanna couldn't let him hurt her sister without being in on the fight. Just as Kouga dove to Kagura he was met with a very red eyed, and pissed off Kagome.

Kagome spoke "You will leave now wolf before I get angry and kill you."

Kouga shivered how could she speak to him like that he was going to be her mate. (A/N: Kouga can't take a hint can he?) Kouga started to growl and he went to attack Kagome. She was pushed behind Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru was now answering Kouga's growl with one of his own.

Kagome went over to her 'father' Koyoto who was holding Rin and Shippo on his lap and telling the crying Rin that it would be ok and saying to Shippo that both Kagome and Sesshoumaru would be ok.

"I'll tell you once more Kouga please just leave. It is better for you health." Kagome tried once more to convince Kouga.

Sesshoumaru was still growling trying to gain control over his demonic side. His eyes were a very dangerous red with few gold spots. Kouga now having realized the danger he was in, he had pissed off a demon lord, and an already irritable demoness, and a wind sorceress.

"I'll will be back to kill her...goodbye everyone." Kouga turned around and ran back the way he had came.

"Well he is gone at last." Kagome said coming back over to stand beside Sesshoumaru, who at the moment was still in attack mode, Kagome placed a hand on his shoulder and he instantly calmed down and pulled her into a hug, and kissed her on the forehead.

Kagome, who was now tinged pink, hugged Sesshoumaru back then suggested that everyone get back to dinner.

Sango, Kikyo and Kagome went ahead and finished cooking dinner while Kagura and Kanna were sitting alone by the fire. Kohaku was sitting with Miroku and Inuyasha talking inaudibly to most of the members of the group, excluding Sesshoumaru, Kagome, and Koyoto.

Once the dinner was cooked Kagura broke the silence "Kanna and I have decided on something...If it is ok with Lady Kagome, Kanna and I are going to take our leave. It will be for the best and if you ever need anything my lady just ask." Kagura bowed her head, while Kanna stood still with an unreadable look on her face.

"If that is what Kanna and yourself wish then we shall stay in touch and friends...agreed?" Kagome said.

Kagura nodded and said "thank you for understanding...I don't want to be around the children when Kouga comes looking for me...we will leave after dinner." Kagome nodded her head and then looked to her 'father.'

"Spill it. Tell me what all of this 'demon' thing is... who was my mother...where did I come from...Who was my best friend as a child...did I even grow up here..." at this point she was gasping for breath.

Koyoto laughed at her sudden burst of questions. "I will tell you. Your mother's name was Airashii she was so beautiful...you take after her. You come from the north where once I am gone or renounce my title you shall be the new Lady of the land. As a child your best friend was in fact Sesshoumaru. You lived in this era till you were twelve...two years after your mother...died...are you still wanting me to wait and let you tell her this part Sesshoumaru?"

"You may tell her it will be easier...on both of us." Sesshoumaru keeping his eyes fixated on the fire in front of him.

"Ok." taking a deep breath Koyoto continued. "Your mother and Sesshoumaru's mothers were...inseparable. Inu no Tashio, Sesshoumaru's father and I were also good friends...you and Sesshoumaru used to play in the gardens with your mothers while Inu and I worked out treaties and other paper work.

"When you were about nine...Inu and I made a decision that changed our lives for...the better it seemed at the time. We paid dearly for what we did. We cheated on our mates." Kagome gasped as Sesshoumaru growled he wasn't liking the story at all.

"We got used to having two mates and it seemed like a thrill to try and keep the human scent off of us, by bathing every day and night, taking a change of clothes, that sort of thing. At your tenth birthday party, you mother found out. Yayoka, my present mate, came to the party we were throwing you with Inu no Tashio's human mate , Izayoi, telling both your mother and Sesshoumaru's mother they were both expecting a child. Naiokai, Sesshoumaru's mother, and Airashii could have killed them on the spot, but in their eyes all you could see was depression and sadness.

"Kagome it I could take it all back I would, but what comes next is very hard for me to speak about. After the party Naiokai and Airashii put you and Sesshoumaru to bed, him sleeping on a bed that was placed in your room for him, and they went to the meadow they use to sit and read to you in. That is where Inu no Tashio and I fond them, they were dead. They killed them selves over grief."

Kagome was crying uncontrollably she was starting to remember all her father was telling her she remembered the funeral, the flowers and her weeping over her mother and her second mother. She remembered Sesshoumaru refusing to cry and keep her next to him. She stood up and walked over to Sesshoumaru and sat down in his lap like she did on the night of her mothers' funerals, she is still considering Sesshoumaru's mother as one of her own.

Sesshoumaru put his arms around her and told Koyoto he could wait till the next day to tell her the rest of the story like how she was a human on minuet and a demon the next.

Kagura and Kanna took their leave after dinner leaving Kohaku with his sister and new family. They had to promise to come back and see them when ever possible.

The rest of the group settled down and drifted off to sleep Kagome still wrapped up in Sesshoumaru's arms and her children right next to her.
