The shrine was truly a piece of art. The structure was sturdy and the outside was pretty to look at. Each door was painted carefully with protective charms hidden with the images of clouds and mountains. Each had been painted by either Tenka or Kagome. The shrine had a total of five floors and a pond in the back. It contained anything Kagome, Tenka and Kazou would ever need. But Kagome still wondered why it had been made so large with a few acres of land. She had the feeling Touga had something up his sleeve. It took almost 6 months for the young Kami to be fully connected to the land and shrine. It took another year and a half before the young Kami was back to functioning as they had before. Kagome had thought their first shrine was much. But this one was on a whole different scale.

But today the guest of honor had finally arrived. Kagome was not suprised when he was approached by a woman of 4 feet tall. Her hair was strikingly dark like the finest of ink. It was put up in a complex manner Kagome couldn't really compare to anything he'd seen here. Most female individuals of importance kept their hair down. But he was mostly stuck on the demon's hair color. Even the Kami could not claim to have hair so dark concidering the blue tint in his own hair. A simple filled in black circle rested in the center of her forehead and black lined her eyes. She was dressed finer then any woman he had encountered in his time here. Although that wasn't extremely outstanding since all the women he had encountered were warriors or servants. This individual was of a finer occupation. Yue the Tiangou of the Taisho held many titles. The Kami knew of her from a few encounters Kazou had within his memories. Her eyes were half gold and half black. In the future Kagome had seen some dogs that had similar eyes. It was not so uncommon but this was the first he had seen a demon with such eyes.

She had greeted him with a bow and a soft smile. "Hello Kagome-dono. It's a pleasure to finally meet you." Kagome tipped his own head in a bow. From what he knew Yue was the most sought after woman in the land. She was proclaimed to be a seer. Not only that she was the most like her sire then all her siblings. She had the charisma and cunning that almost put Susumu to shame. "I have been expecting your visit. However I do not understand why you would offer your services to me through Touga. I understand that you are of high standing in the human and youkai community. Why waste time with me?" Yue smiled prettily gesturing him to take a seat on on the large cushions surrounding a table, even though she was a guest in Kagome's shrine. Kagome would be the fisrt to admit he wasn't exactly the best host. They both sat neatly with mirroring polite faces. "As you can see into the history of others, I can see possiblities of the future. They are not definite, so I'm a well practiced gamblier. I have lost and gained my fair share." Yue poured them both warm tea.

Kagome shifted in to the female sex. Her clothes adjusted to her change in size. Over the last few weeks she had done so often not caring about anyone's opinion. This was natural for kitsune and was only greeted with suprise a few times. Yue's presence reminded her of Sango for some reason. It set her into a state of comfort. Kagome smiled taking the cup with calloused fingers. "Thank you. So Yue what are you betting on this time?" Yue lifted her own cup and blew softly on her own tea. "I do not care for what became of me in your time line. I was bitterly alone and regretting the deaths of my brothers and that nephew I never met personally." Kagome hummed softly in understanding. "I believe I'm here to change that." It was stating the obvious but Yue saw no reason to point that out. So she simply got to the point of the visit."I would like to formally request to mate you and bare your child." That had Kagome choking on her tea. Yue waited patiently for Kagome's coughing fit to end.

"W-wait what?" It was all Kagome could manage considering the shock she was in. Pale finger tips traced the rim of the cup. "No other will do. I have searched for many years. No male will care for my children like you will." The Kami had a feeling that there was more to this then Yue was letting on. "You speak as if you will not be able to..." Yue sipped her tea. "I will not. It is not well known but Tiangou women are cursed. Long ago one of our kind swallowed the sun. As punishment the females of our kind all die in child birth. I want to ensure that my young are well cared for. They will not suffer as I did." That caused Kagome to frown deeply. Of course Susumu's bastard first female child was not recieved well. She was denied her place as Susumu's heir. Growing up was probably very harsh on the demoness.

"You will gain my titles, wealth, and my allies. In return you will care for whatever children come of our union." Kagome gripped her glass tightly and stared down in thought. But her heart leaped in joy at the possibility of children. But at the same time could she have loveless sex? That thought made her pause. Any sex she ever had was loveless. This would be different though, it was for more then fleeting pleasure."Don't... Don't you want someone you love?" Colbat eyes dared to look into gold and black orbs. They were strikingly warm and motherly. The young Kami was painfully reminded of her own mother. "Love? Oh yes that is why I am here. I have seen what comes of our union. The first words and steps. The laughter sounds so sweet when you tickle their bellies. Kagome-dono I already love them so. This is the only path they exist so I will walk it... as long as you allow it." The young Kami sat down her cup and allowed herself to fall back onto the floor. She stared blankly at the ceiling as a million thoughts raised through her head. "I'll do it. I understand why you want this. Afterall I'm no different. My family does not even exist yet but all I do is for them." Kagome sat up and met Yue's eyes. They were filled with joyful tears. The smaller woman was at her side in a blink of a eye and hugged her tightly. The Kami tensed momentarily before relaxing and returning the hug.
