Sesshomaru walked in to the room and sat down beside her. Handing her a cup of tea he waited for the many question she was sure to ask him.

She took a deep breath and began. "Why?" that was all she said. You could tell by the way she said it that she was sad, but her eyes shone with determination. It was obvious that she didn't want to cry, she was trying to put on a brave face, and was doing a pretty good job. It was further proof that she had grown stronger over the past couple of weeks.

He was shocked; he was expecting many questions. It took him a minute to answer her. That one word asked so many questions, more than she could have asked even if she had asked each question separately. This one word questioned the answered the answered that he could give her. And in shock for a couple of seconds he let his mask slip.

He eyes widened when she watched him. After she had asked him her question it became obvious that he wasn't expecting that one word. To her surprise as well to his she watched as his mask slipped. The mask that her always wore, the one that never betrayed what he was feeling had faltered. His eyes that were always cold and unfeeling were overflowing with sadness and pity. The air of authority that surrounded his dropped and was replaced by one of intense guilt. His usually cold and unfeeling features dropped, replaced by the intense pity and sorrow he felt at that moment. Even though the fact that his grief was so immense that it caused his mask to fall meant that he had nothing good to tell her she was happy. He liked her enough to be sad for her, maybe she was starting to melt the ice that surrounded his heart of stone. Then before she could think anything else the mask was back up.

" I can't answer that, there's something's that I don't understand," he admitted. It angered him, the fact tat her couldn't answer all her questions, or really question.

She nodded her head, she hadn't been expecting him to have all the answers, and she had to try though. "Ok then what was that thing, the glowing shining thing that looked like a huge wolf. What was that?"

He knew she would ask him that and why wouldn't she? Taking a deep breath and setting down his teacup he began. "Every living thing has a spirit. The spirit is harbored deep within a person's soul. It's a person's primal instinct almost, and it comes in many forms. Most are animals like yours it is very rare for somebody to have one that is human. Many people don't know about it and never will because only those that are pure can call upon them. So this means that only Miko's can because every miko is pure, hence the ability to purify demons. It is a last defense for a miko to call out her spirit, and it takes a lot of training and it takes a lot of training and an intense amount of energy for it to become a solid creature. But once a spirit is called forth it protects it's mistress fiercely it only has instincts, and the need to protect the one that called it forth over comes all it's other instincts including saving it's self. So what you saw was your spirit and it came in the form of a giant dog."

Kagome blinked a couple of times as she took in this new information and she set her teacup down beside Sesshomaru's. Unfortunately all Sesshomaru's explanation did was give her more questions to ask him. "You said that I would need training to be able to call forth my spirit, but I have never been trained in my life, how is this possible?"

" I don't know, you are very powerful to be able to bring it out like that, but the thing is that you shouldn't be able to talk to me right now. You should be fighting just to breathe," He saw her stiffen at his words, and before she could say anything he continued. " As I said it takes an enormous amount of energy to call out one's spirit, usually a miko only has enough energy to sustain the spirit for a couple of minutes at most. You on the other hand were able to have yours out for nearly half an hour it's unheard of. At the very least right now your body should be completely drained of all of its energy. You should be bed ridden yet you are not and that's very strange."

" I didn't even know that I called Shito out," she whispered. " I can't believe that I have that kind of power." She looked down and stared down at her hands in awe.

" What did you just call your spirit? Why did you name it?" he asked. This girl fascinated him she was different and for some reason it made him want to get to know her even more.

Kagome looked up at him with a smile. " Well why not? It's part of me yet you said that it has a mind of it's own. So why not give it a name." A look of concern made it's way onto her face, it was apparent when she talked. "Sesshomaru if I didn't call out Shito purposely than that must mean that I have absolutely no control of my powers. And that there's a lot of power for me to not control. What am I going to do? I could purify you of any other demon without meaning to do it. I don't want to do that. I want to be able to choose when to or when not to use my powers."

He nodded in approval at her concern her was surprised that she had been able to figure that out so quickly. Clearly underneath all that self-doubt a truly spirited, smart and strong person struggled to break free. " I will be training you, there are not a lot of miko's left in the world and the ones that still exist pale in comparison to your power. And in your case they could not be of any assistance."

She was confused now; he was a demon himself wasn't he? " But Sesshomaru you are a demon as well. Isn't there a chance that I could purify you?"

" There is no chance of that happening, I am to powerful to put myself in such a situation." Looking down at her he gently grabbed her chin and made her look at him in the eyes. "It's is also a risk I'm willing to take to ensure your safety. You have drawn the attention of a power demon. I don't know who he is. But you have peeked his interest and now he will be after you. I will not always be around and the demons will not be as weak as Kato was. You need to learn how to protect yourself." He said as he released her chin. "We will start your training tomorrow, meet me in front of the school once classes end."

Nodding Kagome stood up and headed towards the door she was tired and she had to think things over. " ok then I'll see you tomorrow," she tried to grab the door knob but before she could reach it Sesshomaru stepped between her and the door.

"You will stay here for the night, it's to dangerouse for you to go home tonight. That demon is out there and will be looking for you, it's in your best interest to stay here."

Too tired to resist she just nodded and turned around, and began to walk over to the couch to sleep for the night. But again Sesshomaru bared her way. " what now? I'm tired I really want to go to sleep."

"You shall sleep in my room like you did before," he said simply and he gently began pushing her towards his room.

" But it's your room. I can sleep on the couch," she protested but before she could say anything else she had been pushed into his bedroom.

"Goodnight Kagome. I will see you in the morning," he said as he shut the door leaving Kagome alone with her confusion. Sighing she walked over to the bed and before her head even hit the soft pillow she was asleep.
