"It's a miko!" Someone from the stands shouted. "Run!" Hundreds of demons ran, while some of the more braver ones (or stupid) stayed put, sweating bullets. Hiei's jaw dropped. Some of the extent shown of his shock. "Kagome?" He whispered.

'No, it couldn't be! She's dead! Right?' To everyone's surprise, Yusuke laughed.

"I can't believe it! My own cousin, Kagome! You sure have gotten stronger!"

Now everyone's jaw dropped. Yusuke's cousin! Kagome grinned.

"Come on, Yusuke! Let's get this started!" she yelled dashing towards him, a glowing fist raised. He responded with a maniac grin, and raised a glowing fist of his own.

"This will be interesting" Kurama murmured. 'Definitely' said the suddenly awake Youko in his mind.

While my Life still Stands

Kagome dashed to Yusuke, raising her brightly glowing fist of miko energy to his face. He crossed his arms to his face in defense, but at the last moment she lowered her body and punched him in the gut.

Yusuke braced himself, and before he was sent flying, kneed her below the neck. A deafening crack was heard as her collarbone splintered. Both of them flew back to the edge of the ring, landing into the rough concrete. Yusuke sprang to his feet, closely followed by Kagome. There bodies were covered in shallow scrapes from the fall, and you could see a bruise were Yusuke had injured Kagome.

"Okaasan!" Two clear voices rang through the stadium, both in worry for the safety of their mother. One was the cry of a small boy, but heads turned as the second cry came from a man from the opposing side. A lonely demon that's heart had frozen, and become a void of bitterness and hate long ago.

"Hiei?" Kurama's bewildered voice seemed to echo in the desolate silence. Hiei said nothing, as his gaze was transfixed upon the woman who had been the only creature upon the earth, to love him and cherish him. And die for him.

The Shikon team was stunned. How did this demon know Kagome? Calling her by the name of Mother? Only one did not look puzzled among the shocked group. Sango smiled gently, looking at Mother and son as Kagome turned her head and locked eyes with the stunned forbidden child.

Yusuke too, looked bewildered, when did his cousin ever have a child? "Hey Kagome,"

He called over the ring. "Mind telling me this shit load of a story you for got to mention after the fight?" Kagome laughed merrily, seemingly not noticing her wounds.

"Of course I will Yusuke," she said, not once turning away from Hiei. "And I believe I owe my friends one as well."

"You sure as hell do, wench!" Inuyasha called. "I'd like to know these things as well, imouto." Sesshomaru stated, his voice sending shivers down her spine.

I'm in trouble now. She thought. Oops!

Well, if you had taken my advice and told them. Sango replied through their linked minds.

But noooooooooo, you were to chicken.

You try telling your best friends you fell in love, had a kid, committed suicide, and found the kid again as a miko. Kagome snorted, and closed off the mind link.

Kagome sensed that Hiei was about to open his mouth, but before he could get a single word out she shook her head. "Not now, my Ember," she said, love filling her voice as she spoke, "Later, ok?" Hiei nodded, but reminded himself to press the subject matter later. His mother was a sly one, and there was no way he was going to let her go unquestioned.

Hiei bowed his head, and promised himself silently. He wasn't going to let her go, ever again.

Kurama stood silently, analyzing the events that had just unfolded before his eyes. So Hiei's mother was the Miko of time, Kagome. The girl from legend who was savior to all, demons and humans alike. But wasn't Hiei's mother a koorime? If so, how could Kagome be his mother? Adopted perhaps? He smirked. "Looks like I'll just have to wait and see."

Silence filled the stadium, and it was getting pretty heavy. Kagome let out a whistle. "Awkward…" she said, scratching the back of her head sheepishly. "I'll say, you can here the crickets chirping!" Yusuke exclaimed. He grinned. "I know just what to do." He told her.

Yusuke then abruptly pulled his head back and cupped his hands around his mouth. "Hey youkai! I'm not, your mothers were Class D!! But that's alright, at least she's not Class E's like you guys! Which makes it easy to kick all your fucking ass's!!!"

That sent all the youkai in the stadium to a tremendous uproar, chanting "Kill Urameshi!!"

Kagome laughed hysterically. "Nice job cousin," she said. "Now I won't feel bad about kicking your ass!" Yusuke grinned. "Just try!" And they were off.

Yusuke delivered a swift kick to Kagome's ribs. She jumped and dodged, coming down and landing on his shoulders, forcing him down to the ground with a grunt. She then gripped him in a headlock. "I'm not going to show any mercy, Yusuke." She panted, squeezing the air out of him. He smirked. "Neither am I." he wheezed.

That was when Kagome noticed something poking her stomach. Something warm, and crackling. "Oh, shit!" She tried to scramble off, but Yusuke was too quick. "Spirit gun!" he yelled, as a blast of blue reiki shot Kagome's stomach, flinging her backwards. She spit out a clot of blood as the spirit energy drilled into her stomach.

Blood seemed to just shoot out of her stomach as she barreled into the stands. A giant crater was formed, dust and rubble covered the spot where she landed.

"Kagome!" Miroku shouted worriedly. Sango clutched at his arm fearfully, searching frantically for her sister. "Where is she Miroku?" she asked, her voice meek and afraid.

"I don't know, Sango." Miroku replied. Kikyo clutched to Rin and Shippo, her eyes wide.

Sesshomaru and Inuyahsa stood calmly, as they heard Koto's voice shouting, "6…7…8" Suddenly a form flew from the stands and into the stadium. It was Kagome, beaten and bloody, her clothes torn, but strangely enough, a smile plastered on her face.

Hiei's fear and anger, which had been quickly building inside of his ceased, seeing that his mother was alive and apparently well. Somewhat. He put his face in his hands as he saw his mother's maniac like grin. "Sometimes I wonder about her sanity," he muttered. He then saw the alike grin on Yusuke's face and groaned. "Now I know how there related, and now all I ask," Hiei raised his fist to the sky, " Why kami did you give me an insane mother, and apparently," Hiei scowled at the thought, "a demented uncle."

Kurama let out a sigh he didn't even know he was holding in. He had gotten worried there. That blow could have easily killed any other normal person or demon. But then again, Kurama smiled and one eyebrow was raised, as if to question himself. She's not normal is she?

"See," Sesshomaru stated calmly, his icy demeanor never falling, "She's fine."

"It's not her time to die." Inuyasha said, looking intently at the match. "When will it ever be?" Rin asked, shrugging her shoulders. "As long as I'm, or any of us are around, it will never be time." Kikyo shook her head. Her eyes solemn and sorrowful, just like they used to be. Inuyasha's heart panged with pain at seeing his mate's sadness. "What is wrong, Kikyo?"

Kikyo looked at each of them, and shook her head and whispered, "You all know as well as I do what is wrong," she raised her head and met their faces. Whether they wanted to hear the truth right now or not they had to hear it. It would help save their hearts, if only by one piece of shattered glass, later. "Kagome's pure. We all know that she'll do anything for us, for the two worlds, filled with the people she loves. And because of that, on the third accursed wish," Kikyo took a deep breath, readying herself, "She will die."

There was silence among the group, each had there heads bowed in a state of silence. "We do not need to hear of this now." Sesshomaru growled.

"Yes we do."

"And pray tell, why Kikyo?"

"Because if we don't we will suffer."

"We will suffer either way!"

"Your heart may be stone, but mine is glass. If I can save it by one shattered piece, I will selfishly do so!"

"If my heart is stone, with time it will crumble into dust, and there will be nothing left of me!"

Sesshomaru glared at Kikyo, his golden eyes narrowed and flaring.

"Losing her to me is not only suffering," he hissed. "It is death, and with death for me comes hell. She is my redemption, my haven, if she is gone, I too shall leave. Whether it is physically or mentally, death is the same." He took in a breath and continued.

"So Yusuke, lets get this fight over with, shall we?" Kagome called. Yusuke grinned and made a mock bow. "Of course my lady," he smirked and raised a glowing index finger. "As you wish."

As if in rhythm, two voices spoke as one, although neither heard the other. The one of the miko, and the one of the desperate Demon Lord who refused to let her go.

"Death is the loss of mind, soul, and humanity itself."

"The thought of death no longer scares me, but,"

And they chimed in grim satisfactory.

"I refuse to accept the knowledge of death until my life is no longer standing."

I hope you liked it. I'll try and update sooner.

Hiei: She's not gonna update is she?

Kagome: Probably not until next year!

Kurama:Hey! I hardly get a line in this!

Me: Deal with it!! You should be happy your Kagome's love interest! I can change that, you know!

Kurama: Scary lady...

Hiei: You mean he's gonna be my dad?

Me: Yup!

Hiei: ...
