Chapter 5

Kagome POV

I saw something that I haven't see in Sesshomaru, fear

He was worried for his father, just as we all were, his father knew me as a archery teacher, since Sesshomaru was getting tired when people saw him talking to mid-air or some random girl, and rumors were spreading, but sometimes I sparred with Inuyasha or Sesshomaru

Right now we raced down the path, I folded my wings

We reached Lord Inutaisho's chamber, Sesshomaru walked past by the protesting maid as he opened the big brass doors.

"Father" Inuyasha shouted as Sesshomaru and he made their way to his bed

Lord Inutaisho smiled weakly at them as he raised one of his arms in salute, but instead went into a coughing fit

"Rest your energy father, you are weak at the moment" said Sesshomaru with a hint of concern laced in his voice

"Don't call the king of the western lands weak Sesshomaru" said his father jokingly, but also seriously

Sesshomaru just nodded, Lord Inutaisho turned his head to me, he smile

"Ah, kagome!" he said excitedly, just less strong

I smiled at him "hell Uncle Taisho" I said, he gave me permission to call him that since I always hanged around the house with them and joined them with meals

He smile but the went to another coughing fit, Inuyasha patted his back and Uncle Taisho's pat

He raised his hand indicating for him to stop, Inuyasha just nodded

"My, my, to think that I have lived 789 year" he says blissfully

My eyes widened

"Uncle don't talk like you are going to die"

He smiled weakly at me, "well I have lived a long life; my life is finally taking a toll on me"
Sesshomaru spoke "father, is there no way to help you? You are still young, grandfather lived till he was 900 years old" said Sesshomaru

I hold in that I lived for a five-hundred, Only Sesshomaru and Inuyasha knew about that

Uncle patted his son

"Son there is, but it is too much trouble for you, plus I am fine with death" he said

I begin to tear up, this was all so sad

He turned his head to me

"ahh, kagome please don't cry, you'll have Sesshomaru and Inuyasha with you, and they might not be as funny as me but they will do"
I tried my best to smile at him, I was still very upset, I was still standing at the foot of his bed

"What is the other option father" asked Inuyasha

Uncle turned to him

"Well, have you ever heard of the legend of the Shikon no tama? It is a jewel that was forged by a priestess in an epic battle with demons, she made it and about 300 years ago one of her descendants hid half of it, the other was given to another one of her descendants, but she disappeared shortly after"

I took in a deep breath, I knew this story, I felt something pulse within me, I silently clutched my stomach, and the jewel was reacting

I heard them continue

"If you can find both halves of the jewels, then you will be granted a wish" he said

I bit my lip, that was only half of it, if you made a pure wish the jewel will be purified and disappear forever, but if you made a selfish wish, then the jewel will grow tainted and poison the holder.

The jewels brings nothing but pain

I looked down, I had half of the jewel within me, and I swore to someone important to me that I would never let anyone know, I let someone know but they just betrayed me

There was now a scar on the right side of my stomach

I total blocked them out when I heard Sesshomaru's voice break through my thoughts

"Kagome?" he asked

I blushed, then waved around madly my hands

"Eh Gomen, just was thinking, so what was said?" I asked

Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow "we were saying that we are going to search for this jewel, I heard telling of it from a nearby village were apparently there was a Miko who once guard it"

I nodded

"Then I'm also going!" I say

He nods, Inuyasha nods also

Uncle smiles at all of us

"What wonderful kids I have with me" he said

I smiled brightly at him, I really wanted to help him, but I didn't want to use the jewel, I want to find a way to heal him without the jewel, and this may be the way to get it

Inuyasha smiled a toothy grin

"lets get goin!" he says, I smiled wider "yeah!" I say cheerfully

We looked at Sesshomaru as he said "Hn"

I laughed

Uncle smiled

"Let's get packed, father we will head out and get that jewel as fast as we can" said Sesshomaru

Uncle smiled
