AN: Ty for the reviews, they are fuel! I noticed a few miss spelled words in the last chap, sorry about that!

The sky was dark and the rain was falling hard when the vampire Lord made is way up the steps of his fellow Lords castle. Kagome's dad stood tall and took in a deep breath. The vampire Lord seem to come out from no place and his red eyes would make even a powerful demon like himself fearful.

"Lord Toga" Her father bowed,

Lord Toga bowed back,

"Come, let us go inside and away from the weather"

Kagome's dad was glad that the other Lord only brought one vampire servant with him, no doubt his castle was already uneasy about vampire being so close, thought they knew he was not a killer, he never killed in less he had to.

"You have come to speak about Kagome?"

"And my son"

Their eyes met before sitting down near a warm fire.

"Tell me Lord Toga, what is it that you son did to make my Kagome upset and to leave in such weather?"

"Yes, do forgive my son, he is not, shall we say a lady's man"

"I do not wish for him to be a lady's man as you call it" Kagome's dad took offense,

"Please do not mistake my meaning, what I meant to say is that he does not know how to talk to women"

"Indeed" The demon Lord said,

"My son said that he has taken care of the law breakers in the East and only removed those who stood in his way, he said he gave many of them plenty of time to run and or back down"

"And if they did not, he killed them?" This was his kind they were talking about,

"So, it would seem" Toga said slow "I am sorry, but you must understand"

He understood, boy did he ever, and it hurt, it was a stupid law, and the vampire's where there to make sure it stayed a law.

"I do not like it, but I understand, but my daughter" He stopped and smiled and when he did Toga did,

"Your daughter will change my son, even if it is a little" Toga said,

"Speaking of your son, where is he, I take it he was most upset hearing that she would go East to see what he had done"

A bigger smirk can to the vampire Lords face "Oh but he was, last I saw he was chasing after her"

"Oh?" The demon Lord said, then, they both broke out in laugh. As they Laughed their offspring ran or road on a horse in one's case. Kagome raced into the East village only a few hours after leaving, the place was dead silent. As she horse came to a stop she swung off and landed on solid muddy ground, the rain had died down to a light sprinkle but the rain had done it's job of making the ground mud. Kagome looked around at the few stick houses, she could see smoke coming out of one, meaning people where there. She grabbed her horses rope and walked to the house "Hello" She called as she stepped up to the door "Anyone, here"

It was silent for a moment, then the door slid slightly open and a woman's tired face looked back at her "May, may I help you"

"Uh, maybe, I am Kagome"

"Yes, are you alone?" The woman asked,

"Yes, why?"

The woman the door "Please, come in"

Kagome ducked down under the door way and walked in, as soon as she did she heard a baby cry. "May I?" Kagome asked,

"Please do" The woman said as she sat down,

Kagome walked over and looked down at the baby cry,

"A half breed" She said sweet,

"Yes" The woman breathed out, tired was her soul.

Kagome bent down and picked up the crying baby. He was a fox demon half breed,

"His name is Shippo"

Kagome smiled down at the small baby "Hi Shippo"

"He has not stopped crying" The woman choked on her words and Kagome looked at her "His father is dead" The woman kept talking "He died trying to protect us"

A cold chill went up her spine and she knew, but she just had to ask "Who"

The woman met her eyes "Lord Sesshomaru"

AN: LORD Sesshomaru says review! his words not mine!
