Lady Frozen Rose: Please go back and read chapters 1 - 7. I've changed some things and added others. This chapter will be a little different too. Please go back and read everything again or this and future chapters won't make sense.
Sesshomaru: you heard the lady, go re-read those chapters or else you'll be very confused.
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha. Inuyasha and the Inuyasha characters belong to Rumiko Takahashi. I only own the plot and my characters. I'm going to say this once, the Inuyasha characters are OOC (out of character) I'm sorry if you don't like it; instead of leaving flames, you can just not read my story.
Tsumetai's POV:
"Enkai, help me break them out of it! Also, snap Kagome out of her confusion."
"Heh, ummmmm, how?"
"Well I don't know, that's why I'm asking for your help."
While Tsumetai and Enkai were discussing how to break Sesshomaru out of his shock and Kagome out of her shock and confusion, Sesshomaru was thinking about what he learned. Kagome was too confused to process anything.
After an hour of this, Kagome remembered about Shippou, Sango and Miroku being in the other room. She also remembered they still had to deal with Naraku in the feudal era. She had also finally accepted her feelings for Sesshomaru. She still doesn't know him that well but she is falling for him and she hates Inuyasha. Done with thinking but still confused, she gets up.
"Hey, guys. Sango, Shippou and Miroku are still in the other room. We should go get them and return to the feudal era. There is still Naraku to deal with."
"Oh, right. But Kagome, don't forget that when you and I leave this era, we no longer belong to it. We belong to the feudal era, our proper time period." Tsumetai said.
"I know. Oh, Enkai, I have two questions. One, why can't we sense any demons in this time? Two, what about you, can she really leave you?"
"First, because we have learned how to look and feel 100% human. Two, she's not leaving me."
"How did you learn? And, she's not? How old are you?"
"I can't answer how we learned. And well, let's see, we're currently 520* years since the defeat of Naraku. I was born 300 years after his defeat. So, I'm 200 years old."
"So, Kagome and I are really meant to live in the feudal era?"
"You should know the answer to that, Tsumetai."
"Okay, well enough talk. We have to return and defeat Naraku. Let's go get Miroku, Sango and Shippou."
They all returned to the living room and were asked a lot of questions by Sango and Miroku. They filled them in and Sango noticed something was different about Kagome. Shippou was just excited Kagome wouldn't be leaving him again. After filling Sango and Miroku in on the conversation they missed, Kagome said they were going back to her house. Tsumetai gathered what she would need and Enkai returned to her parents because she didn't belong in the time period they were returning to.
When they got to Kagome's house, her mom and grandfather greeted them. They were invited into the house and to stay one more day, before they had to disappear forever. The group accepted the invitation and entered the house.
Once they were all in the sitting room, Kagome opened her mouth to talk to her mom but got interrupted.
"Hey, Kagome? When did you mature so quickly and why do you resemble the human form of an inu-youkai?" Sango asked.
"I don't know why I resemble the human form of an inu-youkai. As for maturing, I don't know. I think you only just noticed it. I myself didn't notice until we were at Tsumetai's house because I hadn't looked in a mirror. I think the change must've started when I synced with my sword; I don't know why it happened though."
Kagome's mom then interrupted the conversation. "I can answer why Kagome resembles the human form of an inu-youkai. It'll be best explained if I show you. Let's go outside a moment."
They follow Kagome's mom outside and watch her take on her demon form. She is a black inu – youkai. She is actually a tai – youkai. She is the lady of the North – West. Kagome's father is lord of the North – West and like Kagome could travel through the bone eater's well. Black inu-youkai have the ability to hide their demon markings. Kagome's mom takes her human form again.
"Kagome, you have never met your father because like you, he could travel through the well. I met him while he was living in this time. When you turned two he returned to the feudal era. Your father is the lord of the North – Western lands. One other thing you should know before you go, I am a youkai – miko. My mother was a hanyou – miko and mated a youkai. You are also a youkai – miko. When you get back to the feudal era, seek out your father. He will help you learn your demon powers and how to take your demon form."
"Alright, I will look for dad. Mom, when did my true heritage reveal itself? Why have I looked human for so long? And, why was I confused with Kikyo for some time?" Kagome asked.
All of that can be answered with one thing. You were born human, so I took you to my best friend, whom is a miko. We learned you were born with two souls and so your true self would not be known until the second soul was removed and you got your first sword."
Grandpa then joined them, interrupting the conversation. "There is one more thing, Kagome. We have always known that one day you would enter the well and never come back to this time. There is also a sword you will need to find and claim before your battle with Naraku. Now, it's getting late. Let's go to bed and we will see you off in the morning."
Lady Frozen Rose: Next chapter they will return to the feudal era. When they get out of the well, something unexpected is going to happen.
Sesshomaru: What's going to happen, my lady?
Kagome: Sesshou, she can't reveal that. Please review for Lady Frozen Rose. She appreciates reading your thoughts
