Me: Hello people and welcome to Forbidden Beauty

-Flashbacks-
Chapter 1: Entering the Competition and a New Journey
-Flashback: "Kagome you're not my real daughter." Aki said.
"What? What do you mean mom?" Kagome asked with confusion and a sad face.
"Kagome I found you a few feet in the forest behind the shrine one day when I heard a baby's wail. You were there when I went and looked and you looked normal except for your eyes one was blue and the other was a deep red. You also had claws and fangs. But when I picked you up you changed. You were as you looked before this happened." Aki said and Kagome's eye's widened.
"So you're saying Kagome isn't your real daughter?" Sango asked.
"Yes." Aki answered.
"Then Kagome that means you're mother is probably on Koormi (Sp?) Island, Island of the Ice Maidens. They had created their island a long time ago so demons couldn't get to them and kill them since they were going extinct because of their very valuable tear gems. I bet you can make tear gems as well, Kagome since you are half Ice Maiden." Sango said using the knowledge that was taught to her.
Kagome looked even more shocked if that was possible, "So my mother abandoned me?" Kagome said with a frown.
"I'm sure she didn't. It's usually the elders that make the mothers of children that are like you give them up and toss them off of Koormi to the land below to die and since probably no mother would do that they make another Ice Maiden do it." Sango told her with a soft look.
Finally Shippou said something, "Okaa-san what will happen now?" he asked.
"Well I'll need to leave the shrine for a while. The memories are just too much right now. So I'll leave and come back when I'm ready to face Inutrasha and Miro-baka. I'm going to find someone who can train me to fight and I'm going to attempt to try to control my powers and get a handle on them. Sango-chan I ask that you stay here and protect my mother just in case Inutrasha finds a way through the well." Kagome said.
"Can do Kagome but all I ask in return is you return safely." Sango said.
"Okaa-san are you leaving me behind?" Shippou said with teary eyes and worry on his face.
"You have to stay Shippou. Here think of it like this a new adventure you can take on your own. Get to know my mother and you can explore the forest behind the shrine." Kagome said and picked Shippou up from off the table he was sitting on in Kagome's kitchen.
"Oh Kagome I want you to come home safely as well. Here I've been saving this for the day when you'd move out but you can have it now after all today is your 18th birthday." Aki said handing Kagome a gold credit card.
Kagome gasped, "Oh I can't believe I forgot my own birthday!" Kagome said making Sango laugh. Kagome took the credit card, "Thanks Okaa-san. I'll go pack and I'll leave by noon tomorrow but I promise I will come back. After all I can't just leave my duty unfinished." Kagome said and she took Shippou with her upstairs leaving Sango, Kilala, and Aki alone in the kitchen.
"Well Sango-san would you like something to eat?" Aki asked.
"Sure." Sango said.
(Upstairs in Kagome's room) "Oh Shippou can you get my charm bracelet please? It's on my dresser." Kagome asked Shippou.
"Sure Okaa-san." Shippou said and grabbed the silver chain bracelet that had many charms on it and put in the duffel bag that was on Kagome's bed as she was in her closet getting on the clothes that weren't pink or girly which was half or her closet.
(Time skip 11:30 tomorrow) "Bye onee-chan! I'll miss you!" Souta said, his voice muffled by his shirt.
"Bye Souta I'll miss you too. Bye Okaa-san, and Sango. You too Kilala! Bye Shippou I'll miss you!" Kagome said as she waved and left. She had gone to the train station and left Tokyo for good until she could defend herself. (A/N Where the hell does Yusuke live anyway? oh well I'll just say Kyoto which is a looooong ways away from Tokyo. I found out thanks to Google maps XD) End of flashback-
Now three months later Kagome was living in an apartment in Kyoto. It took her two hours and a half to get there from Tokyo on the bullet train. She had also had gotten a new name, Fuyuko Kiyomi.
(A/N I wanted to use Fuyuki, means snowy winter, but that's one of my own characters' names so I gave her Fuyuko, means child of winter. Kiyomi means pure beauty. So I guess that you could say her name in English is Pure Beauty Child of Winter XD) She had decided on that name to resemble her purity and how her heart is now frozen in ice because of the betrayal. She was walking around town when a flier caught her attention. It said: Attention. On April 13th There will be a contest of strength at Genkai's temple and the winner will get training by master Genkai. Her temple is a few miles out of the city so come and compete.
It had a map to the temple on it, -Perfect. If this is good training I'll be able to defend myself if this Genkai is a good trainer. Hmph.- Kagome thought taking the flier, -It's in two days. I sure hope I'll be able to defend myself against those traitors after I go through this training.- She folded it up and put it in her leather jacket pocket.
She was wearing a dark red shirt that had a black dragon coiling around and over her shoulder with it's head resting on her breasts, she had a black leather jacket that went an inch past her breasts and didn't zip up. She had on dark blue skinny jeans and black high-heeled combat boots. Her hair had sky blue streaks in it and a blue shine when the light hit her just right on her raven colored hair. She had created a ring to hide her demonic features except for her eyes. No one really noticed her eyes unless they looked at them very closely and when they did most assumed it was just a contact to change her eye color. To hide her aura and make it feel human just in case demons she came across that were hiding didn't know she was a demon and a forbidden child at that, she had a special barrier around her. She decided to head to the park to watch the birds and what not. When she got their she felt a demon in one of the trees. It felt like a fire demon.
(A/N like we don't know who it is *snickers*) As she concentrated more on the aura she thought she felt ice in there as well but thought it was just her imagination and walked on not noticing the pair of red eyes in the tree that had watched her when she had stopped next to the tree.
When she got home she went to the third floor and unlocked the door to her apartment. As soon as she closed the door she got ponced on by her two cats, Echo and Sliver. "Hey guys did you miss me?" Kagome said and chuckle while petting their heads. Her cat Silver was actually silver but he also has black stripes. He has red eyes as well cause both he and Echo are youkai cats. Echo looks like Kilala except where Kilala has yellowish white fur, Echo has black and where Kilala has black, Echo has Silver. Echo also has wings while Silver doesn't. Silver is a fire neko like Kilala. Echo is a heaven neko hence the wings. Their auras and Echo's wings are hidden by their collars making them seem like normal cats. Kagome had made them after she learned it from some old scrolls that Kaede had given her 4 months ago. Kagome got up and went over towards her leather couch. "Hm I wonder whats on TV." She murmured and turned the TV on.
On the TV the news was playing, "There was a fire today at Kyoto station luckily no one was injured but the police can't figure out what caused it. What caused this mysterious fire to suddenly appear? Was it just some teens messing around or was it terrorists? Tune in-" was all the reporter said before Kagome turned it off knowing full well that it was just another demon. She sighed and got up, "So you guys hungry?" she asked her cats and then got their dinner ready. It was 6 pm when her doorbell rang.
(A/N Yup they have doorbell on apartments lol) She opened her door and there was a package at her feet. She picked it up and closed her door with a foot as she walked towards the kitchen table she heard a meow come from the box. She stared at then Kagome just put it on the floor and opened it. In the box was a neko and a note.
It said 'Please take care of my shadow neko. I know you're a miko but don't worry I won't tell anyone it's not like I can anyway. Her name is Shadow funny huh? But I would be really happy if you take care of her for me. I have to go far away and I can't take her with me. Don't worry she'll get along with your other youkai nekos. She's all I have so don't mistreat her. I hope I can come back for her someday. Till then ja ne!' it didn't have a name signed or anything. Kagome looked at the all black neko, "So I have to take care of you then? Oh well I don't mind since you're so cute. Come meet your new family Shadow." Kagome said to Shadow. Shadow mewed and followed Kagome to meet Silver and Echo.
(Time skip 2 days later:) Kagome paid the taxi driver and walked up the many steps that the temple had. When she got to the top she noticed a lot of other people had come. -Guess Genkai is famous or something- Kagome thought. A old pink haired woman appeared, "Alright everyone who came your first test is to pick out a piece of paper from this bucket. If you're lucky your paper will be red but for those who aren't you can get off my property immediately." The woman Kagome guessed to be Genkai said. Everyone got in line to get their little piece of paper.
When it was Kagome's turn she picked out the paper and whispered to Genkai, "Heh luck has nothing to do with this it's enchanted paper to turn red as soon as someone with what your looking for touches it." Genkai's eyes widened and Kagome turned away and let another person get their paper. Genkai noticed the way her aura was covered up, (That girl is strange, oh well I wonder how she knew?) she thought. Kagome looked around and noticed she was the only female there, -Wow I'm the only female. Guess no female appreciates fighting.- Kagome thought sneering.
"Alright as I said all of those who got red paper come with me to the next test. As for those of you who got white get out of here." Genkai said and turned around only to be stopped by three very huge muscled men.
"Hey lady we're the strongest here so it let us in!" One Kagome guessed to be the leader said clearly mad that he got white not red.
"No you got white so I can't allow you to go in now get the hell off my property!" She said rudely.
Kagome saw one of them going to hit her and she stepped in blocking it using one of Sango's moves, "Hey now that's not nice. Attacking a warrior with their back turned is not honorable. Now I suggest you do what sensei says or else I might be able to control myself." Kagome said sweetly but had a very scary death glare on her face that made many men gulp and sweat in fear except for the leader.
"Now listen here baka onna she has to let us in! It doesn't matter we got the white paper we're the strongest outta all of you. A mere woman can't hurt us!" He boasted boldly.
Kagome's eyes narrowed, "Fine but don't say I didn't warn you." was all she said before unleashing a few of Sango's moves on him with her demonic strength. He fell unconscious with a lot of bruises on his body.
"Ahhh let's get outta here!" Many of the men said even some that ha the red pieces of paper until only 19 men were left. Kagome turned around to see a very shocked Genkai before she shook herself and motioned for everyone to follow her. When Kagome saw what there next test was she instantly knew the machines were very different and she was right when a wimpy kid scored 206 on the punching game while a really muscular man got 106 he didn't do well on the others either. Kagome first decided to try out the karaoke first. -Hmm ah! Here's a song I want to sing.- Kagome thought and grabbed the microphone as the music started. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at her after she had sung the first few lyrics,
"Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain the nothing at all.
Your sick of feeling numb,
Your not the only one,
I'll take you by the hand,
And I'll show you a world that you can understand." Kagome sung thinking about how the one she had loved betrayed her and tried to kill her just because of what she was and what Kikyho had said,
"This life is filled with hurt,
When happiness doesn't work,
Trust me and take my hand,
When the lights go out you will understand.
Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all.
Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all ." Kagome had hate and hurt in her eyes though none noticed awed by her beautiful voice instead well except for Genkai that is. Oh yes she was impressed by Kagome's voice but she could clearly see that hate, pain, and sadness in her eyes.
Anger an Agony,
Are better than misery,
Trust me, I've got a plan,
When the lights go off, you will understand.
Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all.
Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all." Kagome was also dancing to the beat kind of enjoying the song and knew this song suited her at the moment,
I know, I know that you're wounded,
You know, you know that I'm here to save you,
You know, you know I'm always here for you,
I know, I know that you'll thank me later.
Pain, without love,
Pain, can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all.
Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all.
Pain, without love,
Pain, I can't get enough,
Pain, I like it rough,
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all,
Rather feel pain than nothing at all,
Rather feel pain." Kagome finished. Genkai and the others were very shocked when Kagome got a 450. Kagome got down from the karaoke stage and headed over to the punching machine. On that she got a 368 shocking Genkai again and on the last one she scored perfectly. At the end all of those that had 250 or more on two of the 'games' passed which was only 6 excluding Kagome. All the others were disappointed but left quietly actually fearing what Kagome would do if they made a fuss. Genkai brought everyone outback, "Now I want you to spend a night in this forest and meet me by the big tree in the middle of the forest in a clearing. It is the biggest tree of this forest so it shouldn't be all that hard to find and those who don't come before 5 minutes after noon will be disqualified. Now any questions?" Genkai said as if teaching them something important.
"Hai Genkai what will we do about food or shelter?" Kagome asked coldly.
"You will have to live off the land that is this test to see if you can survive the night to meet me at the big tree!" Genkai said making the wimpy kid from earlier say, "No way I can't do this that forest feels way to evil I'm outta here bye!" and he left in a rush, now only 5 excluding Kagome were left.
Everyone set out that and that night Kagome found her self near a stream and a hot springs nearby, -Ah this is the perfect spot and it isn't that far away from the tree in that clearing. Now all I need is a bow and arrows and I'm perfectly happy since I already got my knife on me.- Kagome thought as she made a fishing pole from a thin but strong stick, a string, and a wooden hook.
Genkai was in the clearing with the Reikai Tentai, Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei.
"Kurama, Hiei, and Yusuke I want you to check on our guests." Was all Genkai said and they all nodded and left. Yusuke took 2 but Kurama took 3, and Hiei took 1 because he recognized her from the park. ^hn what is that onna doing here?^ He thought as he watched her, ^Wow she has some good survival skills. Wonder why.^
Kagome knew the second she was being watched and decided unless it attacked her she wasn't gonna bother it. "Hm I should really get to work on building a shelter or finding one that isn't occupied." Kagome murmured to herself and began to look around. She found a decent cave not too far from the stream and hot-springs but it was inhabited by a mountain lion, "Oh? A mountain lion." She said and walked up to it. The lioness glared at her and growled. "It's ok I just want to sleep here for the night. I see you have cubs, cute." was all Kagome said and the lioness decided this human wasn't so bad. The lioness just went over to her cubs and laid down, her gaze clearly saying, 'well make yourself at home.'
"Oh thank you! Don't worry I'll be outta here by noon." Kagome said, smiling at the giant cat. It was nighttime and Kagome decided to make a campfire but she did so out of the cave due to respect for the giant cat that had let her stay. Kagome decided to go to the springs for a little dip but that annoying peeper was still there so she didn't. When she went to sleep it was kind of cold so the lioness decided to allow Kagome to sleep with her.
(A/N It's cause of Kagome's aura that the lioness is nice. Kagome's aura is calming and feels nice despite the little bit of ice and darkness in it. And yes animals can feel peoples true auras no matter ho hard they try to hide it.) Kagome nodded thanks to the lioness and decided in return to help keep the cubs warm.
Hiei was very shocked an animal would allow this, ^Who the hell is this woman?^ Hiei thought. He had noticed earlier he couldn't get into Kagome's mind and it frustrated him beyond belief.
In the morning Kagome woke up and stretched. In thanks to the lioness she caught them a pile of fish an left it there as she walked away. The lioness sat there watching her as if saying thank you. Kagome looked at the sun then her watch, -just like I thought it's 11:30 I have 30 minutes to kill. I've also noticed that presence watching me is gone for now. Hm what should I do? Oh I know I'll take a nice slow walk to the clearing since it's about a 20 minute walk.- She thought and set off watching nature.
Kurama and Yusuke had an ok time watching the wimps except one of them had died during the night due to a demon rat. So other than that everything went fine. But when they met Genkai at the tree in the morning at 8 am they noticed Hiei was fuming. Hiei, what's wrong? Kurama asked through their link.
Fox there is an onna whose mind I can't read and what's more she actually spent the night in a cave with a lioness and it didn't try to attack her or anything in fact it let the onna sleep with it! Hiei answered shocking Kurama.
My well that's shocking. How did she do it I wonder. Kurama pondered and closed the link. "Hey Urameshi! Kurama." Kuwabara greeted.
"So how did it go?" Genkai asked.
"Fine for me." Yusuke said.
"One guy died but everything other than that went fine." Kurama said.
Kagome arrived exactly at 12 in the clearing at the tree. She was the first one there and she noticed a group of guys, 2 were demons, one an avatar, and the other was a kind of ugly human. -Weird group but who am I to talk I traveled with two demons, one half-demon, and two humans. God I hate humans except for a few that are nice and caring like Sango and my okaa-san.- Kagome thought as she walked over to the tree and put her back on it, staring at the blue sky, -Sometimes I wish I were a bird so I could fly away.-
Genkai looked at Kagome, "Child what is your name?" Genkai asked.
Kagome answered right away, "Fuyuko Kiyomi." Child of winter and Pure Beauty... What a strange name. Genkai thought echoing the others thoughts.
"Well Fuyuko you're the first one here so you pass." Genkai said.
At 12:03 all the others had arrived so Genkai decided to move on since one guy died. She led them to a big building where it was pitch black in there well only to two or three. To Kagome the place was like it was filled day-light when they got to the center Genkai lite a blueish purple fire, "Alright your last test is you have to fight and win all of your matches and I don't care how you win just win and you'll be my student." When Genkai had said that some of the males got a wicked gleam in their eyes and their auras radiated darkness then. -Che they make me sick.- Kagome thought and sneered at them.
"Alright first match is Fuyuko vs. Daichi! Here's the rule's you have to fight out of this light and who ever comes back is the winner got it? Good now begin!."Genkai said. Kagome and Daichi walked off into the darkness. Daichi smirked and took out his night-vision thingy.
"Pfft you think that's gonna help you your not very wise are you? Ha you're very wrong if you think I can't see in fact it's like there's day-light in here." Kagome said her voice coming from everywhere. Kuwabara was narrating for the people who couldn't see. Kagome didn't appear to be anywhere which confused her opponent. Suddenly she was right above his head using a kick that really hurt and could have killed him. It knocked his night-vision goggle like things off.
"OW!" He cried out holding his head. Kagome took that chance and knocked him out. Kagome then a few second later appeared near the fire dragging the unconscious man.
"Winner Pure Maiden of Winter, Fuyuko! Alright next is Katsuro vs. Mamuro!" Mamuro won in 30 minutes being as both of them couldn't see because one was blind and the other wasn't like Kuwabara who had enough spiritual awareness, Mamuro was the blind one.
"Winner the Blind Warrior, Mamuro!" Genkai said, "Next Fuyuko the Pure Maiden of Winter vs. Flourishing Monk, Masaki!" Needless to say Kagome was the winner of that one too. Next it was the Ascending Wandering Fighter, Naboru vs The Thunder Fighter, Raiden. Raiden won that one. Next it was Blind Warrior, Mamuro vs Thunder Fighter, Raiden. Mamuro beat the shit out of Raiden. Only one man had been killed and that was Naboru.
"Alright last match! Blind Warrior, Mamuro vs. Fuyuko the Pure Maiden of Winter. Begin!." Genkai called out. Kagome smirked at the blind man knowing not to underestimate him.
She was puzzled at his confused look, "This is very strange. Your aura is different but I can't feel it and it looks as if it hidden behind a barrier or something." Mamuro said making Kagome's eyes widen and swiftly start to take action.
When Genkai heard this her eyes narrowed, "Yusuke if Fuyuko is the winner I want you to fight her." Genkai whispered to Yusuke suspicious that Kagome was going to kill her or something.
"What's even more strange is that your form keeps on flickering from normal to something with red eyes and a darkness around them and also so very cold." He said and shivered. Kagome quickly shut him up by attacking him but he dodged, "Just who are you? I can tell you are lying about your name so who are you?" Mamuro asked but then Kagome knocked him out and dragged him back by his hair very angry that this man could see through her barrier and illusion so easily.
When she got back to the fire she found Yusuke and the others except for Genkai glaring at her, "Alright there is a final test." Genkai said making Kagome look at her, "You have to beat my last student in match and you may not kill him." Kagome knew what they were doing. They thought she was going to harm Genkai, -Keh shows how much they know ne Hi beast.- Kagome said to her hi beast. |Yep Kagome. We know you'd never harm anyone out of evil intentions| Hi beast said back.
"Che fine." Kagome said rather emotionlessly. Yusuke stepped up facing her and glaring at her, challenging her. Kagome just turned and walked into the darkness without saying a word. (A/N sorry out of good battle scenes just imagine an awesome battle.)
It shocked everyone when Kagome came back with barely a scratch dragging a beaten Yusuke. "There I defeated him now will you train me Genkai-sensei cause if not I can just leave and find another person to teach me how to fight." Kagome said and went to the door. Genkai still shocked into silence didn't answer. "Hmph guess that means no. Good-bye Genkai it was nice to test my strength." Kagome said and left the building. Genkai snapped out of her shock and hurried right after Kagome,
"Wait Fuyuko! I will train you." Genkai said hurrying after Kagome.
Kagome turned and looked at Genkai, "You will. Thank you Genkai-sensei. When do I start?" Kagome asked.
"Come at 6am no later than then or else and you'll be staying here for your training so pack for it." Genkai said very strictly.
"Hai Genkai see you tomorrow then." Kagome said and left.
That night Kagome was packing and her cats had hopped into a basket and now they were mewing.
"Don't worry guys I'm taking you with me." She said and smiled as they all then curled up next to each other and went to sleep. When Kagome had finished packing it was 11:27. "Oh wow look at how later it is. Oh well it's not like I haven't gotten only a few hours of sleep before waking up at dawn. Good night Echo, Silver, Shadow." Kagome said softly before turning out the lights and going to sleep.
Kagome's dream: It was dark barely any light at all. Kagome looked around and got up from her lying position. Suddenly she heard Shippou's scream, "SHIPPOU!" Kagome yelled and took off to where she heard the scream. When she got there she was horrified, Inuyasha was with Naraku and Inuyasha was holding a dead Shippou. Shippou's state was gruesome, his eyes had been gouged out and there was a hole in his stomach and his tail had been chopped off. She looked around at the carnage of dead bodies and she realized she was in Edo as she saw Kaede's dead body. She saw Miroku dead as well though it was due to a man's sickle. She feared what Sango would be like and she was right to fear. Sango's clothes had been torn, she was cleaved in half at the waist and her eyes, hands and bottom jaw were missing. Kagome fell to her knees and wailed. "NOOOOOOOO WHY!" Kagome yelled to the dark cloudy sky as it started to pour.
"Because you are worse then Naraku forbidden bitch! Plus he promised to give me the jewel after all of this." Inuyasha said then laughed like a maniac.
"ENOUGH!" A familiar female's voice was heard and everything suddenly disappeared and went a light purple/pink. Kagome stopped crying and looked around to spot Midoriko standing there in her warrior garbs, "Mi-Midoriko-sama!" Kagome said and then bowed.
"Kagome no need to bow we are equals. I'm am sorry the demons in the jewel showed you that but that is what will come to pass if you don't find another group to help you from your time. To me it doesn't matter that you're a forbidden child besides you were never as you called her Kikyho's reincarnation. In reality you were my reincarnation, Kikyho's soul was just attached to the jewel and followed it to the next life it entered." Midoriko told Kagome.
"But why does it have to be like that! How do I find a group like the one I had before this fiasco? And why would they show me that?" Kagome questioned tears in her eyes.
"They showed you that because they've come to respect and like you and don't want that to happen to you. We've actually made peace but they are still forced to fight because of Naraku's grip on the jewel. We beg of you please rescue the jewel. When you go back don't be surprised to hear the earth and jewel crying out to you. The very earth wants Naraku dead. As to finding a team, tell your new teacher about your past, what you are, your duty, and your mission. She can help with finding people." Midoriko told Kagome, "Oh and Kagome I will be in touch with you now. I will be able to drag you to the dream realm and talk to you in your mind but don't worry about the dragging part I won't do that unless I absolutely have to. Now wake up it's 5:30."
Kagome jumped awake and looked at the clock, -Shit I'm gonna be late. Wait I can just use my demonic speed to get there.- She thought and grabbed everything, making sure not to wake the sleeping cats up, she ran to Genkai's temple and arrived at 5:42, -I'm early whoops. Oh well, god I don't know what I'll do about getting a new pack.- At that thought she sighed as she went up the last step to see Genkai waiting for her
"You're early. Oh well that's fine it shows me you can get up at the crack of dawn." Genkai said then motioned for her to follow. They reached a room in the temple, "This will be your room while you stay." Genkai said and opened the door. The room was perfect in Kagome's opinion. The walls were a forest green and the carpet was an ocean blue. The sheets on the bed were black as well as the pillow cases and the comforter was a deep dark red, -This is perfect!- Kagome thought.
"Thank you Genkai-sensei it's perfect for me." Kagome told her and went in.
"Come outside in 10 minutes or else." Genkai said and left closing the door.
Kagome put her stuff away in 5 minutes then she woke her cats up, "Echo, Silver, Shadow wake up." She said softly and nudged them. They all woke up and yawned. Kagome stood up and went over to her door, "Come on guys meet Genkai-sensei." Kagome said and left with her cats following her to meet Genkai outside.
When Kagome got outside Genkai glanced at her cats, "What are those cats doing here?"Genkai said.
"Oh they're my companions they follow me where ever I go unless I tell them not to." Kagome told Genkai and she just sighed.
"What are their names then?" Genkai asked.
"The one that silver with black stripes is Silver. The one that's black with silver markings is Echo and the all black cat is Shadow." Kagome answered pointing at each of them.
"Fine, this is Yukina she makes the food and does the chores. Yukina this is Fuyuko." Genkai said introducing us. Kagome looked at her and she almost gasped, -She's a Ice Maiden?- Kagome screamed in her head.
"Nice to meet you Fuyuko-san." Yukina said bowing in greeting. "Please Yukina having the san at the end of my name make me feel old. Just call me Fuyuko. And it is nice to meet you too" I told her bowing back.
Genkai had been trainer Kagome all day but she was distracted and Genkai noticed. "Why are you so distracted child?" Genkai asked reminder Kagome of Kaede.
"Nothing I'm fine it was just a dream that's all." Kagome answered thinking, -Yea a dream that's going to come true if I don't find another pack soon. And how am I- wait is that a giant blue bird? Oh it's a spirit beast and if it's that big the dude must be pretty powerful to have a spirit animal that big.- Kagome thought. "Um is that a giant flying blue bird I'm seeing?" she asked Genkai and Genkai nearly face palmed, (Stupid Yusuke for letting Puu run around today.)
"Yes that is a giant flying blue bird." Genkai said.
"Oh so I was right it's a spirit beast. The guy that has that must be pretty powerful for it to be that big." Kagome said. Genkai was shocked.
"How do you know that?" Genkai asked.
"Oh I read it from a scroll a friend gave me a long time ago." Kagome answered.
(A/N I am bored and running outta ideas gomen. Time skip 6 months later.) Kagome finished her training and was in her room stressing out over what to do. In the time she had been there she had become close friends with everyone even Hiei surprisingly. She had had so much fun here being mischievous and tricky. She realized they had become part of her pack, -Oh no why me?- +Oh Kagome it isn't that bad but you still have yet to tell you sensei the things I said you should.+ Kagome heard Midoriko's voice. -I know and I plan on telling her before I leave and run like the coward I am while they hate me.- Kagome told her with a sigh. +Oh Kagome you are not a coward. Listen why don't you gather everyone and tell them the truth and then probably run but if they come after you because they're your friends then they are true friend but if they don't then you don't need em.+ Midoriko said reminding her of Yusuke. -Alright Midoriko.- Kagome said smiling softly. She got finished packing just as Yukina knocked on her door, "Fuyu-chan? You ok in there?" She asked in that soft voice. She had started calling Kagome that 4 months ago,
"Hai Yukina. Could you get everyone together in the main room for me I have something to tell you guys." Kagome asked Yukina.
"Of course." She replied and left. Kagome grabbed everything which was only her duffel bag, backpack and the cats' basket. She then went to the main room where everyone was even Hiei.
"Guys first off I wanted to say you have become very important to me." Kagome said and actually gave them a true smile making everyone's eyes widen, "I know you probably won't like me after I tell you the truth. Truth is I've been lying to you about my name. My real name is Kagome Higurashi and I know three of you are demons and one is an avatar."
"How do you know that?" Kurama asked his voice going cold. -See told you didn't I Midoriko they're starting to hate me already.- Kagome told Midoriko, "I know cause I'm a Ice-fire miko demoness and I have a duty to protect the Shikon no Tama" Kagome said making their eyes go wide then she turned tail and fled.
Yusuke yelled, "Kagome wait!" but she didn't listen she just ran faster than Hiei could leaving a dark crimson tear gem where she was last standing, "Shit!" Yusuke said. Hiei and Kurama's eyes were still wide.
"Did she say she's the guardian of the Shikon no Tama?" Kurama said not believing it.
"Yea she did what is that anyway?" Yusuke said. This time it was Genkai who answered not Kurama,
"The Shikon no Tama is a cursed jewel that empowers a demon to make it a thousand times stronger than it was before. It was made by a Miko called Midoriko and she-"
"Oh poor Kagome." They heard a voice and looked around to see a transparent woman standing there in very old warrior garbs, "So betrayed so she can't trust another person. Hm if I think about that goes against her personality."
"Who the hell are you?" Yusuke yelled. The woman turned around, "Hm me? Oh I'm Midoriko creator of that accursed jewel. I don't have long see as I'm only able to appear to you by using Kagome's miko ki. I have something very important to tell you but first so you understand what the jewel is I'll tell you the story of the jewel. As Genkai-sensei was saying I created the Jewel of four souls by using my soul. I was trapped battling several youkai for several days on the last day I was caught in the jaws of a couple of youkai so using the last of my power I forced my soul out in the form of a jewel and sealed myself along with the youkai in there to fight for all of eternity or until the jewel disappears from the world. It was found by a clan of youkai slayers when they slayed a demon one day and they held onto it until they found Miko Kikyo. She was the first protector of the Shikon. One day she fell in love with a half-demon named Inuyasha, son of the great Western Lord Taishio, the great dog demon general and half-brother to Sesshoumaru. They promised to use the jewel so Inuyasha could become human and Kikyo an ordinary village woman and so they could live a happy life together but one day a evil corrupt man named Onigumo gave his body and soul to demons so he could try to get Kikyo because he had fallen in love with the miko when she was taking care of him because he couldn't move due to the extreme burns on his body. When he did that a new being was born one that called himself Naraku." He she spat his name out dripping with venom, "On the day they promised to meet Naraku screwed it up for them. Long story short they thought the other had betrayed them so Kikyo seal Inuyasha to a tree where he went into a long 50 year sleep. Kikyo had asked the jewel to be burned with her body. She had asked this because Naraku pretending to be Inuyasha gave her a fatal wound that killed her moments after Inuyasha fell unconscious. Inuyasha stayed that way until Kagome was pulled down the bone eaters well in Inuyasha's forest where she stumbled upon him and then was captured by the village of Edo where they thought her to be a demon and they asked Kikyo's sister Kaede to exorcise her but instead they found out she was Kikyo's reincarnation which she isn't she's mine Kikyo's soul was just attached to the jewel and followed it to it's new protector. Needless to say Kagome woke up Inuyasha when a demon called Mistress Centipede came after her for the jewel. The jewel was found when the demoness ripped it out of Kagome's body with it teeth."
At that everyone winced, "So she has a scar from it then?" Yusuke asked.
"Oh yes she has a scar alright. Then after that Kagome freed Inuyasha and he killed Mistress Centipede. After that Inuyasha tried to kill Kagome but Kaede made him beads of subjugation and said Kagome had to say the word that would subdue him. It was sit and sometimes she added boy to it. Then a few days after Kagome accidentally broke the jewel and it scattered all over Japan in the Feudal Era which was 500 years ago. She has recovered much of the jewel over half of it but 9 months ago on her 18th birthday she returned to her true form because you see 18 years ago she was cast off of Koormi Island and fell down to what would have been her death if not for a tear in the barrier where she fell into the human world and was found by a very kind and caring woman who Kagome for her life as a human would think was her mother until like I said that day she was traveling with her pack which was made up of Inuyasha, a monk name Miroku, the last demon slayer Sango, a orphan fox kit Shippou, and last but not least my old companion Kilala a fire neko when she had woken up that day she felt a little off like something wasn't quite right but she shook it off. She made her pack breakfast and noticed Inuyasha was missing and she knew right away who he was with. You see an evil witch, before the whole group was together when it was just Inuyasha, Kagome and Shippou, kidnapped Kagome and made this crazy concoction and when Inuyasha arrived he saw Kikyo except she was made out of bones, graveyard dirt, and clay. When he said her name Kagome's heart missed one beat and that was all it took for Ursa to take Kagome's/Kikyo's soul. So she's gone her whole journey missing half of her soul that is until that morning. Inuyasha, after Kagome had gotten everyone up and was feeding them came into the campsite with that clay pot saying that she was his mate and Kagome responded by calling him a Necrophilia and calling Kikyo Kikyho. Inuyasha said that she was joining there group and right in front of everyone he called Kagome just a shard detector. Anyways later that day they were attacked by a pissed off dragon youkai that had ten shards. During the battle Kagome got hit full on with the dragon's fire but she didn't get hurt by it at all. Then after the battle Inuyasha was yelling at her when she fell to the ground in pain and transformed back to her true form. Inuyasha and everyone else were shocked to find out she was a forbidden child. Then Inuyasha and Miroku betrayed her saying they had to kill her because of what she was. Sango, Shippou and Kilala protected her as they made their escape to the well. Before Kagome jumped in with them she 'killed' Kikyo sending her back to hell and taking back that piece of soul that Kikyo had while freeing the ones she was using to keep herself alive so to speak. And now here you go you have Kagome, Sango, Shippou, and Kilala all in this time period. Now the important thing I wanted to tell you was that is you don't help Kagome, she will die as well as everyone else of her broken pack except for that backstabbing inu." Midoriko said making everyone go pale.
"Kagome-chan will... will die if we don't help her?" Yukina asked stuttering.
"Yes if all of you don't help and I mean everyone. That means you Yusuke, Hiei, Kurama, Kuwabara, Shizuru, Yukina and even you Genkai as well as a blue-haired ferry girl of the River Styx must help her or she as well as everyone will die, the land will fall to darkness and the whole future will change." Midoriko said very grim, "And I really don't wish for that to happen because of Kagome the youkai and I have made peace so we owe a lot to Kagome. She is a very special child and the youkai do not wish for her or darkness to befall the land either. Now my time here out of the jewel grows short I really hope you make the right decision and when and if you do she will be in a tree in the park or at her apartment on Sakura road in Kyoto. Good-bye." Midoriko's voice faded and then she was gone.
"What the hell! That's kind of a lot to lay on a person!," Yusuke yelled then sighed, "Come on guys Kagome is our friend even though she lied about her name so we have to help her. Come on let's get everyone together and bring her to Koenma before we leave with her to tell him the importance of this mission plus, Hiei you can kill all the demons you want without Reikai breathing down your neck."
Hiei's eyes widened at that and all he said was, "I'm in. I'll find Kagome." before vanishing. Everyone chuckled and got the group together and were waiting for Hiei to return with Kagome.
Kagome had run to the park she had fallen in love with after quickly dropping her stuff and cats off in her apartment. So she was currently in a giant oak tree trying to keep herself from crying knowing that it would only cause her trouble in the end. She stared off into space so deep in thought she didn't feel Hiei coming towards her as fast as he could. He was kind of shocked to see her like that so he hopped right into the tree right across from her, "Come on you silly onna. We are still you're friends after all I am a forbidden as well, Kagome." Hiei said making her gasp. Then he grabbed her and ran holding her bridal style back to the others. Kagome was shocked to hear that he was a forbidden like her but then her eyes softened, -So his friends are truly his friends then if they don't try to kill him. I think I can trust these people.- +Of course you can! But you made me have to explain it to them since you did nothing!+ Midoriko said grumbling. -So you told them everything?- Kagome asked. +Pretty much.+ Midoriko answered. -Oh well thanks Midoriko.- Kagome thanked the warrior.
(A/N Crap I forgot to tell everyone that Midoriko trained Kagome with her miko powers when she slept and said Kagome had to find someone to teach her to control fire and an Ice Maiden to teach her how to use ice. Gomen) They arrived to the others in a matter of minutes. Kagome saw the reaper she had seen before but pretended not to those times. Hiei set Kagome down where she immediately had Botan in her face
"Oh so this is the famous Shikon miko? It's nice to meet you Miko-sama I'm Botan, ferry girl of the river Styx." Botan said being her bubbly self.
"Please just call me Kagome I don't really like titles." Kagome said and greeted the reaper.
"Ok Kagome! Come Koenma wants to meet you! In fact he demanded he see you immediately." Botan said smiling and she gave a small laugh as she opened a portal underneath everyone's feet. Only Shizuru, Kurama, Hiei and Kagome landed on there feet gracefully.
"Ah you must be the Shikon Miko! It's honor to meet someone as good as you." Koenma said making Kagome blush.
"Hai and you must be Koenma prince of Reikai. It's an honor to meet you." Kagome said back.
"I hear you're a miko demon?" Koenma asked curiously.
"Ah Hai here let me drop my barrier and take of my illusion." Kagome said and then instantly her incredible Pure aura filled the room as her features changed a bit. Her hair grew till it was an inch past her butt and it had a red streak in it as well. Her eyes, the red eye got darker and was as red as Hiei's while her blue eye was a dark blue like the deep ocean water. She also was now Hiei's size which was a short 5ft. Everyone's eye were wide except for Kuwabara's because Kagome's aura was so soothing, it was unbelievable at how soothing it was. Kagome looked at Kuwabara and sweat dropped,
"And that is part of the reason why I hide my aura hehe," she chuckled uneasily.
"Koenma about why we're here. We need to go with Kagome to 500 years in the past to help her with the jewel or she will die and darkness will rule the land and will change the whole course of history!" Yusuke said being serious and you could tell because he actually said Koenma's name.
Koenma's eyes widened, "R-really you are actually being serious." Koenma stammered almost loosing the pacifier in his mouth.
"Yes he is Koenma-sama." Kagome said.
"Alright then what do you need?" Koenma said turning to Kagome.
"Well they'll be gone for a long time so they need supplies for a few months and good excuses for disappearing so the cops aren't called. Oh and they'll need weapons if they don't have them but I'm pretty sure they do but if not I can just have a friend make them swords for free." Kagome said going over a list in her mind, "Other than that I got everything covered."
"Alright Kagome. GEORGE!" Koenma yelled for his assistant, George the ogre.
"Hai Koenma?" George said peaking his blue head in.
"I need some good excuses for Yusuke and Kurama because they are going away for awhile!" Koenma demanded. George jumped at his strict tone and said, "Right away sir." and scurried out the door. When George returned Kagome walked up to him and said, "Thank you very much George." then she hugged him making him go red.
"Your-your welcome." He stammered and handed her the papers. He then left and Kagome walked over to Koenma, "You should try to be a little nicer to your workers. I find being nice and asking not demanding works a lot better than a person making other people or demons fear them." Kagome lectured him before handing him the papers.
"Hai Kagome." He said with a red face of embarrassment. After Koenma looked the papers over he said, "Yes these excuses are good. It says you're going on a vacation for a few months in the Caribbean."
"Ok so let's go now! We have to pack." Yusuke said and so Botan all dropped them off at their house. Surprisingly Hiei had a house in Ningenkai that no one except Botan and now Kagome knew about it as well. Kagome followed Hiei into his house and it was just as you would expect. It was either black or red and there were dragons carved in the things made out of wood but despite that Kagome actually kind of liked it, "Nice place you got Hiei." Kagome said to him.
"Hn I guess." Hiei said while packing then he realized she was in his house... in his house.
"Wait what are you doing in my house? Shouldn't you be packing?" Hiei asked.
"Nope I'm already all packed and I can have it delivered here by my cats." Kagome said.
"How they're just... ordinary... cats." Then he realized it, "There youkai nekos aren't they?"
"Yup! Here I'll show you. Shadow! Come here and bring the others as well as my things." Kagome said and a moment later three cats and Kagome's backpack and duffel bag were there.
"How?" Hiei said confused.
"Her name she is a rare Nine-tailed Shadow Cat meaning she controls the shadows and can use them as weapons or as portals." Kagome explained, "Silver is a Three-tailed Fire Cat he can create flames and even walk through flames as well as fly. Echo is a extremely rare cat, she is the Nine-tailed Heaven Cat and she can fly because she has wings. Her power is being able to control the elements as well as the Gates of Hell and the Gates of Heaven. She also has the ability to walk on clouds." Hiei was shocked she had two very rare nekos and a Three-tailed Fire Cat. Usually fire cats only have two tails.
"You done packing yet?" Botan asked popping in.
"Yep! We are Botan. Bring everyone to the Kyoto station." Kagome told her.
"Alright but why the station?" Botan asked.
"Because we have to go to Tokyo." Kagome answered simply. Botan nodded and teleported them there first in a few minutes they were joined by everyone else. "Alright person check. Shizuru, check. Yukina, check. Yusuke, check. Kurama, check. Genkai, check. Hiei, check. Kuwabara, check. Last but not least Botan, check. Ok everyone's here let's get on the Bullet Train to Tokyo." Kagome said.
"Why are we going to Tokyo?" Kurama asked. "Because that's where the well is and my family." Kagome said.
They had all gotten on the train with their luggage and after three hours they arrived at the Tokyo station closest to Kagome's home. When they got there Yusuke exclaimed, "You live in a shrine!"
"Yup it's the Higurashi Shrine and also the tree where that Inu-baka was pinned for 50 years. It's called Goshinboku." Kagome said as they reached the last step and when they were about halfway to the front door they heard a yell of, "OKAA-SAN!" and a fox kit came out of the house and barreled right into Kagome.
"Okaa-san you're back! I've missed you soooooo much! It's been really lonely with out you!" Shippou said in a rush very excited to see his adoptive mother.
"Wait you had a kid!" Yusuke said loudly.
"No baka this is Shippou a fox kit I adopted." Kagome said.
"Okaa-san who are they?" Shippou asked hiding behind Kagome.
"Oh they're gonna help us kill Naraku and Inu-baka." Kagome told him.
"But why Inu-baka?" Shippou asked.
"Because he joined Naraku just to kill me and it seems Naraku has taken over Miroku or he just turned into an evil houshi we'll know when we see him." Kagome said before she was tackled by a female yelling, "KAGOME-CHAN!" excitedly.
"Hello Sango-chan it's nice to see you too. Sango these are our new friends and they're gonna help us kill Naraku and Inu-baka. Inu-baka has joined Naraku and I think so has Miroku just to kill me Can you believe that!" Kagome said getting up and helping Sango up.
"Nope I can't believe it. God and here I thought they were our friends and oh please introduce your new friends." Sango said.
"Ok This is Yusuke he's a Mouzoku. This is Kurama he's a Kitsune avatar. This is Yukina a Ice Maiden. This is Hiei he's a forbidden like me except no holy powers of course. This is Botan, a ferry girl of the River Styx. This is Genkai-sensei she helped train me these last six months. This is Shizuru, her brother is Kuwabara. They are both spiritually aware humans as well as Genkai-sensei." Kagome introduced them and pointed to each of them as she said their names.
"Oh it's nice to meet you I'm Sango!" Sango introduced herself. Then they heard a, "ONEE-CHAN!" and Kagome was almost tackled yet again but this time by her brother. Kagome gives a laugh,
"Nice to see you too Souta. I've come back." Kagome said with a certain softness in her eyes and the others were surprised to see this.
"Welcome home Kaggy! You'll always be my sister even if we aren't related by blood. You being a demon just makes you even more cooler than you were before!" Souta said his face bright.
Kagome kissed him on the forehead, "Thanks kiddo I needed to hear that." Kagome said and smiled softly at her brother. Hiei watched the scene with a little jealousy. He wished that he could actually have the courage to tell Yukina that he's her brother seeing as the demon he made that promise with is dead and plus he's going to 500 years into the past where there's no three worlds there's only one maybe two, Ningenkai and the Afterlife. So there's really no reason to not tell her but he fears she won't accept him. ^Maybe I should ask Kagome for advice she seems good at giving it.^
"Onee-chan who are these people?" Souta asked so after going through Introductions again Kagome said she would be right back after she goes and sees her mom real quick. She told her mom that she'd be going back and that she'd be back in a few months or so with her new friends. Then she went outside and told everyone to gather by the well and hold hands. Shippou was on Kagome's shoulder holding on to her hair. Kagome's nekos were doing the same thing as well as Kilala except Kilala was on Sango. Everyone jumped in and were awed at the portal through time. Kagome looked like a goddess with her hair flowing around her. Making it seem like she was using her power. When everyone got there Kagome and Sango avoided falling into a heap like the others did by Kagome grabbing Sango and hopping out just in time which meant so did Shippou and the nekos as well.
Kagome heard the commotion going on in the well and yelled down, "If you don't hurry up we're going to leave you behind!" That was all it took to get them out of the well, "Good now I want you all to come meet Kaede. She's a lot like you Genkai-sensei." Kagome said and lead them to the village of Edo (A/N Wouldn't it be great to have a tragedy right here but nah I'm not that mean.) where as they passed the villagers all waved and some even said, "Welcome back Kagome-sama!" or "It's good to see you Miko-sama. Are they your friends?" Kagome just waved back and answered some of their questions.
"Wow you're really popular here Kagome-chan." Yukina said and giggled as a guy whistled at Kagome.
"Oh I guess that's only because I'm the one who freed Inuyasha, is the protector of this village and the guardian of the Shikon." Kagome said. Finally they arrived at Kaede's hut. Kagome pushed the mat back and saw Kaede making lunch, "Hello Kaede!" Kagome said smiling brightly.
"Oh is that you child? Welcome back I'm sorry to hear about yer betrayal from that baka. Come in and sit and tell me who ye friends are." Kaede said motioning them in.
"Oh that's ok Kaede I've gotten over it. Anyways this is Kurama, a Kitsune avatar. This is Yusuke, a Mouzoku. This is Hiei, a Forbidden Child like me. This is Yukina an Ice Maiden. This is Shizuru and Kuwabara, they're very spiritually aware and this is Genkai-sensei she taught me how to use my spirit energy and how to use many weapons though I still have to find someone to train me in my fire and ice powers. Oh and these are my youkai nekos, Silver the Three-tailed Fire Neko, Shadow the rare Nine-tailed Shadow Neko and last but not least Echo the rare Nine-tailed Heaven Neko." Kagome said. She had taken off their collars before they left the future so they were in their natural form which was about as small as Kilala and the showed of all of there features like their wings (which only Echo had), eyes, and extra tails.
"Good for ye child but what about yer miko powers?" Kaede asked.
"Oh Midoriko trained me in those." Kagome answered.
"So that is why you were so tired in the mornings." Genkai said.
"Yep and Midoriko sometimes talks to me as well Kaede. Midoriko said she and the demons in the jewel have made peace but because of how evil Naraku is they can't stop themselves. She also told me not to be surprised if I hear the jewel crying out as well as the earth." Kagome said surprising everyone with this information.
"Is it crying out to ye now child?" Kaede asked.
Kagome's face got serious, "Yes Kaede in fact the very earth screams in agony. It knows that if Naraku isn't stopped not just humans and other creatures will die but everything else as well. The jewel cries out to me to be found and be put in it rightful place." Kagome's voice had gotten sad but then she returned to being her cheery self that barely anyone ever could see through but Hiei and Kurama could see through the facade and what they saw saddened them. Both of them realized the weight of the world was on Kagome's shoulders and someday she would stumble and fall under that weight. Question is whose going to be there to help her back up when she does fall? That day seemed it was going to be any day now that she will stumble and fall. Hiei have you realized what I have?
Of course fox and because she's someone that's very much like me and a... friend I promise I will be there to help her get back on her feet. Hiei answered shocking Kurama.
"So where shall we head first Kagome-chan?" Sango asked.
"We're heading into the Western Lands to ask Sesshoumaru if he will help us on our journey to defeat Naraku. Then we'll probably head south since we haven't really explored that area for jewel shards but not before I see Totousai." Kagome said.
"Alright I hope you know what you're doing Kagome-chan." Sango said. "But since it's getting late we're heading out tomorrow." Everyone noticed it was getting late since the sun was setting already.
"I invite ye and yer friends to stay here Kagome. Don't worry I got a back room that I can sleep in." Kaede said getting up after handing us dinner.
"Thanks Kaede-Obaa-chan you're the best!" Kagome said.
"Yer welcome child. Good-night to ye." Kaede said walking into the other room chuckling and Kagome told them she'd be right back, she was just getting some water.
"So you trained Kagome Genkai-san?" Sango asked.
"Yes she was actually the first student who actually did what I said without complaining or whining." Genkai said.
"Ah yes she was never one who complained or whined even if she was exhausted she only did that when she saw me and Miro-baka exhausted and practically asleep on our feet. Even with Inu-baka's very pushing pace she'd never complain." Sango said staring out the door that Kagome had gone through.
"So she never ever complained unless it was because of you guys?" Yusuke asked.
"Yes. I respect her for that, she is not like any other females I've ever met even in Kagome's time. She's a one of a kind and I'm very glad I met her. Many humans and demons alike are as well."
"Why's that?" Kuwabara asked.
"Because to Kagome it doesn't matter what race you are or even how bad your past is. She thinks if you're a good person now then it doesn't matter what you've done to her unless of course you're Naraku then you're in your grave already pretty much." Sango said, "If anyone deserves to kill Naraku then it's Kagome."
"Why would that be Sango-chan?" Yukina asked.
"Well no one knows this except for me but Naraku had taken Kagome one time and replaced her with a perfect clone except for one thing only I would notice. There was just this certain look in her eyes that Kagome's never had but it was there. Anyway Kagome escaped before Naraku could do anything bad to her and she was on her own for a long time afterwords." Sango answered.
"How long?" This time Hiei chimed in.
"Half a year. To her that was a very hard thing because she has gotten use to being in a pack so she was used to sleeping with others nearby."
"Must have been hell for her then." Yusuke said.
"Yea I don't want to know how it felt." Sango said and then Kagome walked in.
"Hey Sango come walk with me?" Kagome asked.
"Sure Kagome-chan I'd love to." Sango said and got up walking out with Kagome. Leaving everyone else to think over what Sango said about Kagome.
"What did Sango mean about that pack thing? Why would Kagome feel very lonely without her group?" Botan asked confused.
"Well some demons like to travel in packs you know for example demon wolves. There is the alpha male and the alpha female, you know the ones who are in command and judging from Sango's words Kagome is the Alpha female and it sounds like there wasn't an alpha male so she's the leader of her pack. Think about it what happens when a wolf is separated from their pack and can't get back at all. They get very lonely and depressed to a point where they might not even care if they lived or not. That's probably what Kagome felt because even humans can be in packs that's why you hardly find any hermits just like you rarely find any lone wolves. You see Botan Kagome has gotten so used to have a group with her that she was that depressed wolf. She must have found a way back though. We'll have to ask Sango about it when Kagome is off somewhere." Kurama answered trying to explain it.
"Oh I see because Kagome is so used to being in a pack she can't really go on without her friends around her or a group of people that are her pack. Does that means we're pack to her?" Botan asked.
"I bet it does except for you Botan she's never really met you before so you'll have to bond with her sometime during our travels." Shizuru said actually understanding everything despite her not knowing much about youkai, "Where did Hiei go?"
Kagome was oddly very silent and so Sango was starting to get worried, "What's the matter 'Gome?" Sango asked concerned.
"I can't believe this. That our original pack has fallen apart. It makes me feel like that time I was separated from everyone." Kagome said confiding her true feelings to her sister-like friend. Sango then realized her cheerfulness has been an act and that Kagome was hurting.
"Kagome you are not alone. This whole fiasco now makes me kind of understand how you felt separated from us. Don't think you're the only one hurting you know I loved Miroku just like you had a crush on Inutrasha." Sango said hugging Kagome.
"Sango you know I just want to cry my heart out but I can't because of how my tears crystallize and it kind of scares me because I grew up thinking I was normal, that I was human but then I find out all this and it scares me. It scares me to think now everyone will try to kill me because of what I am that all of our friends, old and new might do what they did." Kagome said on the verge of tears.
"Oh Kagome it's alright to cry I won't call you weak for it like that bastard Inutrasha did. To me it's show you have emotions that you aren't afraid to show like some certain others. You've been wearing your heart on your arm unafraid to show you have one. Just because of Inutrasha's hurtful and very rude comments doesn't mean all males are the same I mean just look at Kouga he calls you his woman all the time." Sango said letting out a giggle but then stopped when Kagome flung herself at Sango and almost wailed as she sobbed her heart out with her tears crystallizing as they fell. Hiei had been watching this whole thing and felt sympathy for Kagome because she was going through the exact same thing he had been through except it was going very differently.
After Kagome had finished crying Sango picked up her tear gems and put them in a little bag, "Come on Kagome let's head back." Sango said looking at the full moon that was halfway to it's peak.
"Hai Sango-chan and thanks for being here. You're the best pack-mate and friend a person or demon could have." Kagome said smiling softly at Sango.
When they got back everyone decided to go to bed. When everyone was asleep she noticed Hiei was going outside and she grabbed him, "Hiei where are you going?" She asked him quietly.
"To go sleep in a tree outside." Hiei answered.
"No. You're sleeping in here. Here I got a blanket for you." Before Hiei could do anything he found himself sitting against a wall with the last blanket on him.
"Don't you have a blanket?" Hiei asked curious as to what she'd do if she didn't.
"No but it's ok I'm going to curl up with Silver." Kagome answered. She went to do so that is until Hiei pulled her back and covered her with the blanket as well. -So warm.- She thought blushing, "Why'd you do that Hiei?" She asked.
"Hn." was all he said before he said, "Go to sleep onna." Kagome yawned and nodded quickly falling asleep. Hiei followed her to dreamland shortly after.
In the morning Kurama was the first one up and he noticed he was holding Sango with one arm around her waist. He went red but then almost laughed after looking across the room. Sango started to stir. That's when she noticed she was in Kurama's arms and she had her arms around Kurama. She immediately let go and sat up quickly. Kurama put a finger to his mouth signaling her to keep quiet then he pointed across the room where she saw Hiei and Kagome cuddling. Her eye's widened and she almost laugh when Kurama took out a camera and started taking pictures when Shizuru woke up. Sango motioned for her to be quiet and pointed to the duo that Kurama was taking pictures of. Shizuru's eyes widened, [Wow never thought this happen in a million years. That little spitfire is actually cuddling with a female.] she thought and whipped out her camera and started taking pictures too. Botan woke up a few minutes later to see those three doing what they were doing. She was confused so she followed the direction they were looking in and saw Hiei cuddling with Kagome. Hiei's arms were wrapped around her waist and Kagome was sitting in his lap, her head in the crook of his neck with her arms on her stomach. Yusuke was the next to wake up and after what he saw he mouthed to them to give him some copies. Then when they noticed the duo about to wake up everyone went back to there sleeping positions and pretended to be asleep. Kagome was the first to open her eyes and when she did she immediately got very red in the face, -Oh my god I'm in Hiei's lap! Oh my god this can't be happening! Just OH MY GOD! (A/N: Lol lot's of omgs there XD)- Kagome thought then heard a chuckle in her mind +And why not 'Gome?+ Midoriko said her voice sounding amused. -Cause he's... he's not even my boyfriend or anything we just met!- Kagome yelled at her. Hiei then woke up feeling oddly content to stay where he was. He opened his dark crimson eyes to see a very red Kagome in his lap and he got a VERY light blush, meaning he actually got really red. Shizuru had been watching and almost laughed at the look on Hiei's face, it was priceless. Everyone suddenly jumped when they heard a scream ring out in the morning air...
