N.S. Hey guys! Sorry that it's been awhile since I last undated. I've had some major tests the last few weeks and another coming up. But I've already started on Chapter Four so I hope you enjoy! Here's chapter three!

Moon-Shadow – Night-Silver does not own Inuyasha, so please don't sue. And we hope you enjoy the story! Oh, and don't forget to review!

Kagome smiled as she thought about the day. She was so glad to find out about what she was. She was still slightly confused about the way people would react to her. But for now she wasn't going to worry about it.

She walked toward her room to call it a night. Then children were tucked in their beds glad they had a mother. Kagome laughed a little remembering how cute Rin looked before asking for a mother. So, now, Kagome had a son and a daughter.

Just as she was about to lay down a surge of power swept through her body causing her to fall on the floor. She cried out in pain, trying to control this power. Suddenly the doors to her room were thrown open and Sesshomaru came running in.

He was about to yell t her when he noticed the state she was in. as he went to her he heard small footsteps and knew instantly they belonged to Shippou and Rin. He called for a servant to make sure the children were taken back to their rooms.

Another scream from Kagome brought Sesshomaru back to the matter at hand. He noticed that Kagome's scent was changing to one he barely remembered of sweet Sakura Blossoms. Suddenly his eyes widened. That was the same scent as the Princess of the Eastern Lands.

That can't be! She was said to be dead.

You know as well as me that you never believed that for one instance.

Doesn't mean anything.

Yes it does! Look!

Sesshomaru watched as Kagome suddenly changed. Her black hair grew to her waist and added blue and red highlights, her nails grew to claws, red stripes appeared on her cheeks and wrists, fangs were visible when her mouth was opened, a long beautiful black, blue and red tail appeared, and a red nine point star was now clearly visible on her forehead, along with a blue tear drop in the center, clarifying she had miko powers.

Sesshomaru could not believe that this human was a Shadow Inu Miko, and Princess of the Eastern Lands as well. Suddenly Sesshomaru was thrown into a place within his mind, a memory.

' "What's wrong, son?" The Western Lord asked his son.

"For some reason I'm getting the feeling like something bad is going to happen to her." Young Sesshomaru answered as he kept his gaze on Kagome.

"Sesshomaru, will you do me a favor? Will you watch and protect my daughter?" The Lady of the House asked.

Young Sesshomaru nodded. He would protect Kagome with his life unless something happened to prevent that.'

"Lord Sesshomaru, I want you to make sure that no harm comes to Princess Kagome. She is the only one who can defeat Naraku."

Sesshomaru growled. He had wanted to be the one that defeated the half-breed. But he could understand that; Kagome had been the only one who has really wounded him.

"Lord Sesshomaru, please promise to take care of my grand-daughter. And know that she is not Kikyo's reincarnation, but her incarnation."

Sesshomaru nodded. He remembered this question about protecting Kagome. He swore then that he would protect her with his life, and he'll swear now to do the same. He looked at Kagome with softer eyes before walking over, picking her up and holding her through the last of her transformation.

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked, weakly.

"Hai."

Kagome smiled, knowing she was safe. She slowly began to lose consciousness as the surge of power slowly died down. Sesshomaur checked to make sure her vitals were even, before placing her in bed and watching her. Once he was satisfied with her safety he went back to his rooms and fell asleep.

With Inuyasha and gang (next morning)

"Slow down, Inuyasha. I think you have forgotten something…or someone." Miroku said, the last part in a whisper.

Inuyasha suddenly stopped, and looked around. He was slightly confused then he realized that Kikyo was missed.

"Wait here!"

With that Inuyasha dashed off the way they came in search of his missing 'mate'. Sango and Miroku shook their heads before beginning to set up camp. Kilala growled before going toward the forest to gather wood, while Miroku went to get some water and Sango looked for some ramen in Kagome's bag.

Inuyasha raced through villages and surrounding forests looking for Kikyo who mysteriously disappeared. He couldn't believe that he had left without Kikyo being with him. If Naraku or one of his 'children' had her he would kill them.

'Just like you did when Kagome was hurt? Like when you're brother said he was taking her with him?'

Shut up. I wouldn't have been able to do anything without taking a chance on hurting Kagome again.

'So you choose Kikyo over Kagome, the only woman who hasn't tried to kill you. She's been by your side for three years to gather the jewel shards'

Inuyasha stopped where he was. His 'conscious' was right. Kagome had been with him for the last three years and had put up with him sneaking around. He never even let her know that he was thankful. He just argued with her all the time.

With Sesshomaru (in Kagome's room)

The sun came streaming in and fell upon Kagome's sleeping form, making her look like an angel. At least according to Sesshomaru at that moment. He could no longer deny that she was finding a way into his heart. A part of him was disgusted with it, and yet, he was also impressed that she was able to slowly melt his heart of ice. No one had been able to touch him like she was.

So what do we do now?

I don't know. But I promised to protect her and that's what I'm going to do.

Sesshomaru sighed in relief as his beast retreated for the time being, then he looked at Kagome again. She really did look like an angel. An angel who had been hurt more than someone should be. An angel who was hurt by the one they loved.

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked, slowly waking up.

"Hai, Kagome. I'm here. You're safe."

"Arigato, Sesshomaru-sama."

"You're welcome, Kagome-sama."

Kagome looked shocked and confused at that. Sesshomaru noticed and was about to say something when Shippou and Rin came running in. they ran to her bed and hugged her before noticing she looked different.

As they started to ask questions Kagome looked at Sesshomaru as he walked toward the door. He turned to look at her; the look in his eyes said that would talk later; then he walked out and closed the door leaving Kagome to answer all of Shippou's and Rin's questions about her sudden 'new' look.
