AN: ITS STILL *NIGHT/EARLY MORNING* THE SUN HAS NOT RISEN YET so Inuyasha is still a human.

Kagome smiled at her son, but her smile faded when she noticed the look on his face "What?"

"It is-

"Miko" Sesshomaru cut in, cutting off his son, coming out of the forest. Kagome looked at Sesshomaru; he stood with the wind blowing in his hair, she moved her eyes though to his hand. Kagome walked slowly to him and looked in his held out opened hand. Kagome gasp, she could not believe what she was seeing "Sesshomaru, how did you get these?"

"Naraku,"

Kagome looked up at him, and something hit her heart "Inuyasha" She spoke, "Where is Inuyasha?" The whole time her son stood in the background his eyes set hard and his arms crossed. Sesshomaru looked at her for a moment "The half breed was foolish enough to get caught in his weaken human state" Kagome gasp again "Did you not think I would find out Miko?"

Kagome was in pure shock "Wait, he was caught by Naraku, and you have the jewel" Kagome was putting things together "That means" She didn't finish.

"Father left Inuyasha with Naraku" Sessho stated, he would help this along. Kagome looked at him and then looked back at Sesshomaru, Sesshomaru now had his back to her

"Come Miko."

"Come? I'm not going anywhere with you Sesshomaru!"

Sesshomaru stopped "Do you wish not to save your half breed?"

Kagome hesitated for a moment "Yes" Sesshomaru then began to walk, and she followed, Sessho would return to the group and let them know what was going on, well not everything that was going on.

"I can't feel him," Kagome said speaking of Naraku. "Your human senses are too weak to feel his low hidden aura" Sesshomaru stated walking ahead of her. Kagome looked in her necklace bottle, at the now whole jewel. "Sesshomaru, how did you get the jewel?" She knew Naraku was not dead.

"He gave them to me."

Kagome stopped "Why?"

Sesshomaru stopped "Be thankful you have them, Miko."

She was, but she wanted to know why "Why Sesshomaru?" Her voice a little more demanding and less sweet.

"We are here" He spoke; Kagome looked past him and into the cave. "Inuyasha" She whispered.

They didn't walk far before Kagome ran past Sesshomaru "Inuyasha!" She cried as she saw him hanging from the wall. "Ka, Kagome," He said weak his head hanging low. He was bleeding from his mouth, and his face held pain. Naraku laughed "For every minute you were gone, I punished him Sesshomaru, but what do you care right? You hate your brother."

Kagome looked back at Sesshomaru "How could you leave him here Sesshomaru!?" She yelled as tears started to form, she was touching Inuyasha's feet, as he was high above her. "Miko, you speak as if he were your mate, or do you forget he has taken the dead Miko over you?" Sesshomaru asked Kagome, but she didn't turn to him or speak.

"Well Sesshomaru our deal is done I now have the Miko," Naraku said showing himself,

Kagome did turn around this time "What?" She whispered,

"Bastard" Inuyasha was almost unable to speak, Sesshomaru could hear that his heartbeat was becoming weak, he would soon die if he did not get out of there.

Just as Sesshomaru had the thought, he found himself dodging an arrow, her arrow. He went flying back out-of-the-way, Kagome ran at him, Naraku thought he was getting a show and let it happen.

Kagome ran "You jerk!" She yelled. Kagome stopped "I thought" She didn't finish speaking, she pulled out another arrow and aimed it at Sesshomaru, "I thought" she closed her eyes,

"You thought what Miko?" When she opened them she found him holding her arms, and her arrow down, Kagome looked up at him, she thought they were 'friends,' she thought they were in this together. Sesshomaru leaned down and whispered, "Do you wish to save your beloved half breed?"

Kagome nodded, Sesshomaru pressed his claws into her arms, making Naraku think he was harming her. Sesshomaru then whispered again in her ear "Then you will mother me another child."

Kagome blink, she didn't mind being Sessho 'mother' so if Sesshomaru planned on making another child, she didn't mind being its mother, but little did she know, that's not what he meant.

"Yes," She spoke,

Sesshomaru tossed her to the ground and sent out a powerful blast, releasing Inuyasha.

Naraku growled, and before Sesshomaru could get to him, he moved. Naraku snatched Kagome's necklace and vanished laughing, all with a blink. Sesshomaru growled, he should have attacked Naraku first. Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes as he watched Inuyasha craw to Kagome.

"He got the jewel, Sesshomaru go after him!" Kagome said as she sat up. Sesshomaru said nothing as Kagome and Inuyasha helped each other up.

"Kagome, Inuyasha!" The group had arrived, Sessho in tow. Kikyo went right to Inuyasha, Miroku and Sango checked both Inuyasha and Kagome over. "Come Inuyasha you must rest," Kikyo told him, and she tried to hold him up, Miroku took his other side, and they began to walk out.

"Slayer, go I will see to the Miko" Sesshomaru spoke, Sango nodded and left. Sessho stayed back and watched his father and mother. Sesshomaru walked up to Kagome "Are you harmed, Miko?"

"Hm no" It was a small lie, her arms hurt a bit, it was a lie he smelt. "Very well Miko" Sesshomaru turned to walk away but stopped when he heard her make a small noise. When he looked back he saw she had fallen and was holding her ankle; it would seem she had twisted it when he tossed her to the ground, he had not meant too hurt her. Sesshomaru knelt down on one knee "Your hurt" He said,

"Yeah, guess I didn't notice my foot was hurting," She said as she rubbed it. Kagome gasp, she soon found herself bridal style in his arms, and once again her arms were around his neck, he left the cave holding her.

Sessho leaned back against the cave wall with a smile on his lips. He watched as his father carried her off, he watched as she looked up at him and he watched as his father looked down at her. He watched as Kagome laid her head down on his father's shoulder and he watched with a smile as his father let her do it.

They didn't know it yet but the way they looked at each other, that would be their thing. She would look up at him, and he would look down at her, and soon they would both be thinking, I love you.

"You are bound to love by blood." He spoke into the wind.

NO, it's NOT THE END...
