Chapter Seven: Warning

The next day started with everyone getting ready to leave, first they were going to the northern lands. To meet Kagome's father. Of course a certain couple was trying to come as well which Kagome was not going to have.

"No Sango you and Miroku were just married yesterday stay here and have a nice honeymoon" Kagome stopped packing to look at her best friend and sister.

"We can still go Kagome, You're going home to see your dad for the first time since you were a kid, to a palace I am sure me and Miroku will be fine." Sango said while going to help Kagome pack for Shippo.

Over hearing his wife and Kagome who was like a little sister he decided to interrupt their talking. "I believe Sango is right Kagome, you do not need to worry about us we both want to go to help you with this new enemy"

"But you two should be celebrating your marriage together!" Huffing Kagome crossed her arms at the monk.

"Forget it Kagome we are going with you and that's the end of this discussion we couldn't just let you go and something happen to you". Sango said glaring at her little sister/best friend

Sighing Kagome nodded her head while going back to packing. Sango and Miroku headed to their hut while everyone else was getting ready well besides a cold western lord and a very annoyed Inu demoness.

It was a particularly nice day in Inuyasha forest minus the glaring one western lord was doing with one demoness. Why they were annoyed with each other you may ask? Simple the lord of the west does not like to be ignored and one demoness was very good at ignoring and pissing said lord off.

"Woman" came the growl.

"Say little one what is your name?" Ryleigh still ignoring the lord crouched down to his wards size who was beaming a smile at the pretty lady.

"Rin name is Rin and what is yours?" Came the reply as Rin bounced on the balls of her feet.

"Ryleigh, and it is a pleasure to meet someone as adorable as you. Now does Jaken treat you well?" looking at the toad in question who gulped moving behind a tree trunk knowing his lord would not help him from her wrath of all peoples.

"Oh yes, master Jaken takes very good care of Rin but sometimes Rin hides from him" iggling she ran off to go play with Shippo that came with Alaric from the village. Looking at his sister in question and then turning his eyes towards Sesshomaru. Ryleigh noticed the unspoken question while Haru laughed.

"Well simple lord fluffy pants over there refuses to go back home to take care of his lands. Apparently now he's concerned for my wellbeing." Smirking she looked back at the lord who look even more upset than before.

"Feh that bastard cares for no one" Inuyasha said dropping down from a tree next to Haru who he was glaring at while Kikyo got off his back.

"Oh he cares Inu, He's just mad I left is all and would you stop feuding with them? They did nothing to you" Glaring Ryleigh looked to see everyone was coming to the meeting spot now even Kagome was now walking over with Sango and Miroku.

"Well we are all here should we go?" Alaric asked looking at Kagome who nodded her head while shifting her pack.

"Yeah lets go it's time we go home" Walking past everyone Kagome started towards the north til she heard her cousin.

"Wait" stopping everyone looked at Ryleigh but no one was paying mind and no one knew what she was looking for besides Sesshomaru after all it was his present to her.

"What are we waiting for bitch?" Inuyasha asked when Sesshomaru came to smack him he rubbed his head grumbling about older brothers and bastards.

"You will not speak to her that way Inuyasha I suggest you refrain yourself next time" Turning towards the woman who unfortunately drives him mad he noticed she was smiling at him.

"We are waiting for my companion he should be here soon I asked Sesshomaru to send for him the other day" Smiling at the lord one last time when she heard a loud growl looking up she noticed the black beast in the sky slowly coming to the ground. Once on the ground you can see that the beast was a

"Dog? What the hell do we need a dog for" Inuyasha huffed while looking at the large beast.

"Oh my you certainly gotten bigger Cerberus" Ryleigh said petting the hound

"Cerberus as in the hell hound, the pet that is said to guard the gates of hell" Kagome asked

"Well yes but it's not the real Cerberus, Sesshomaru tried when we were kids.. Inu papa refused to let him give it to me so we settled for this big guy and we noticed he would get bigger and bigger so we named him Cerberus." Petting him one last time then turning towards the rest of the group, Ryleigh started walking west without thinking leaving Sesshomaru to smirk, Haru to laugh and Alaric to smile.

"Wrong way sister, that is the west and we must see uncle first." Alaric walking past everyone started north while Ryleigh laughed shaking her head and everyone else followed the silent but vigilant brother.

Hours later it left them in the dark with no problems, no demons bothered them and they had no troubles. They were on the borders of the northern lands, coming to a small but spacious clearing everyone set up camp for the night leaving everyone to turn in without eating since they were exhausted.

Sesshomaru watched as the woman he come to care for slept with the beast he gave her for her birthday so many years ago. Rin who barely knows her sleeping with them as well, as if she has been going it for years. He knew they would not be separated after this. Inuyasha watched as his brother stared with some sort of feelings in his eyes towards the child and woman who was a force of her own, He could tell in his own way that Sesshomaru cared for her and came to the conclusion he would help him get her closing his eyes he pulled Kikyo closer falling into a light sleep of plans forming in his head for the two.

Alaric watched as everyone either were in their own thoughts or were sleeping for the night. Sighing he decided to take a walk besides he has his weapon and knows how to protect himself if there is any trouble. Walking through the forest he stared down at the hilt of his sword the sword looks ordinary besides the little azure gem in the middle of the hilt, from what his father had told him that azure is the key to its magic. Alaric was far from paying attention, at least he kept his senses open for danger but not for the figure that watched from the shadows. Finally coming to a stream he noticed he was far from camp.

'it's too quiet for a forest that should be surrounded with noise even in the night.' Hand on hilt scanning his eyes but no sudden movements when he felt it.. 'That aura it's so familiar. Why can't I remember it. Think Alaric think.'

The figure moved closer but still out of sight watching their prey before they pounced. Alaric widen his eyes standing straight drawing his sword he prepared for the attack he knew. It wasn't possible not yet but it was. Turning slowly he watched as the figured came from the darkness smiling softly with their own weapon drawn, tilting the blade into the moonlight it shown with such a gleam that you could tell it wasn't used in a while. The only sound that came was the very whisper from Alaric

"Mother…" eyes wide he stood there, he couldn't believe it his mother found them already. Was she watching them the entire time since they left the well? Without a thought he hardened his eyes gripped his sword and took a defensive position. Well if she wanted a fight with him she would get it.

"Put the sword away my son, it would not be a fair fight now if I chose it to be so" Catarina said sheathing her sword she walked closer to Alaric with her blue hair swaying behind her they could pass as twins besides the curls he lacked from his mother but his sister got he had everything else. She stood face to face with her son for the first time in 18 years and for a brief moment there was pride in those eyes.

"My you have grown, but it has been 18 years. Now I want you to be a good little boy and send mommy a message to the rest" Catarina grabbing her only son faster than even he could see she held a blade to his throat while he claws left marks all over his face and skin making sure to drip poison made herself into each cut to slow the healing.

"What is it you want mother?" Came the growled reply as Alaric refused to scream out so he growled and clenched his teeth. He would NOT be weak in front of this monster.

"Simple boy. Tell them I am coming and I am starting with your sister, and I will have you all watch as I filet that spoiled whore in front of everyone". Spitting out the words making to cut her son just enough not to kill him on his throat she pushed him away and disappeared in the darkness.

Alaric made his way back to camp struggling with the poison. He almost made it when he collapsed it was too much and he had gone too far from the others even though he can handle himself he was wrong about his mother they're not strong enough against her yet when alone.

He laid there and thought about his sister and how she will cry for him and even sing his favorite song just to say goodbye. It brought a smile to his face as he thought about it and right before he closed his eyes all he could make out was white.

Alright that's it I didn't want to spoil to much and sorry for the delay teething baby I don't even know what sane is anymore ugh okay thank you everyone and I promise the next chapter will be longer
