Last Chapter Review:
As they sat around and made camp, Inuyasha showed Sango, Kagura, and Kanna were a near by hot spring was. "I can't believe he thinks he can do such a thing to Kagome." Inuyasha muttered as he played with the fire. Miroku nodded, "I wonder what he wants though." Inuyasha shrugged, "Kikyo told me a while back that I couldn't comprehend it at the time. I had no clue except maybe… No. That surly couldn't be it."
Miroku looked his friend up and down, "What, what is it?" he asked. Inuyasha blanched slightly, "He needs power, he'll do anything for power. When a miko is in love they usually start to loose concentration on other things in life. Their powers weaken and they don't notice it."
Miroku as well paled, "You don't mean…" Inuyasha nodded, "I think so." Kagura said as she came back from the springs with Sango and Kanna.
Chapter 16:
xx
"Where the fuck have you been, bitch?!" Kane snarled his electric blue eyes flashing in anger. Kemurai flipped her hair with her carefully manicured hand, "What's it matter to you? I'm here am I not?" she said uncaringly. Kane opened his mouth, his sharp canine's gleaming in the moon light, but before he could snap his hated response the puppet of Naraku's cut in. "Do not fight over something pathetic. We have other things to discuss besides the Tenshi's sexual issues."
Kemurai's brown eyes sparked, she as well opened her mouth, but noticed the annoyed look in Tokei's pale green eyes. Hisui's shrill voice spoke now, "Can we get this over with already? I want to go see Maru-maru-chan!" Kane's eyes darkened, almost to a dark black, "The bastard Maru-kuso is fucking flirting with Kagome!" He snapped at his sister.
"Enough!" Tokei snapped than regained a cooler composure. Than the eldest incarnation of Naraku waved his hand towards the puppet once again, allowing the puppet to speak and state the plan the Kumo Youkai had in mind. The puppet, cloaked with a white baboon pelt stealthily moved to the center of the circle of youkai and Tenshi alike.
"Master Naraku has decided to go along with your… ideas concerning Lord Sesshomaru, The Wolf, and the Miko." Kemurai nodded, "But what if Hisui isn't strong enough to break through Sesshomaru's mental barriers?" Tokei smirked, "Well, Naraku wouldn't have given me three Jewel Shards for nothing, now would he?"
Kane's blue-almost-black eyes turned more to a lighter shade, "Oh really now?" he asked in with held delight. Tokei smirk widened as he opened his palm to show them the three Jewel Fragments. He tossed one carelessly to the Neeko's and the white winged Tenshi.
Kane's own smirk gleamed, his canine's once again flashing with the moon, as he placed the Jewel Shard into his right wrist. Hisui slipped her own into her forehead were it would be most powerful considering she was psychic. But Kemurai was a bit more skeptical than the other two, "What of Kagome?"
Tokei stared at her, "What of her?" Kemurai rolled her eyes, "She can sense Jewel Shards you know." The puppet chuckled, "That is why Master Naraku placed a new… potion within these Jewel Shards." Kane regarded the puppet, "What kind of potion?" The puppet grinned, "A formula Naraku has been working on for the past 50 years and is now complete. Do not question him." Hisui glanced at her brother from the corner of her eye, her concern apparent in her eyes she didn't trust this Naraku person too well, either.
Kane hissed, his fangs bearing once again, "This potion of yours better not be any foolish attempt to kill me!" Kane threatened the puppet and Tokei. Tokei shrugged, "I know nothing of his potions." The puppet's smirk grew but he said nothing.
Kane's inner youkai settled down, it couldn't sense any danger within this Fragment, or the liquid within. He calmed himself but didn't allow his guard down; he would not be killed in a petty mistake. "If we are done here, I have a woman to enchant."
"About that…." Tokei started, "Kagome is off limits, Neeko." Kane turned around sharply and snarled, "Off limits? Who the fuck do you think you are?" Tokei chuckled, "Again, Naraku's orders." Kane's blue eyes again turned to a dark black, "No." he said sternly, "I will not give her up."
Tokei chuckled yet again, "Fine, we'll both go after her, but the original plan was just me, we hadn't expected a neeko to fall in love with her as well!" Kane glowered at the young Tenshi. "Damare!!" Tokei couldn't help himself the neeko was one of the most entertaining things he had ever seen. "That is enough." The puppet demanded.
Tokei stopped his taunting instantly but the golden haired neeko still had his fangs bared. "We have other things to accomplish." The puppet started, "There are going to be others as well." The puppet stated slowly. Hisui piped up; "Who?" the puppet was silent for a moment, "Three mortals and a thunder youkai." Tokei turned at this, "I knew of the three humans, but Naraku never mentioned another youkai."
The puppet merely chuckled, "It is nothing to be concerned about." Tokei narrowed his pale green eyes, 'Damn it all….' He thought. "You are dismissed." The puppet suddenly disappeared from site, though Tokei knew where he was going. Kane looked Tokei up and down, "So not even you know the whole entire plan of this Naraku person." Tokei's eyes narrowed, "You silence yourself." Kane chuckled, "Kagome's mine." He taunted as he turned and disappeared through the lush vegetation and towards the Castle once more.

There was a knock at the door and Kagome instantly woke up, her miko powers telling her it was her favorite full fledged youkai and little sweet human girl. Kagome sat up and opened the door for them and Sesshomaru raised a slight eyebrow at her state of half asleep and half not.
Rin giggled, "Did you just wake up Kagome-chan?" Kagome smiled gently and gave the little girl a morning hug, "Guilty as charged." Rin ran over to the bed and tackled Shippo, "Shippo-kun!! Wake up!!" she said in her adorable sing-song voice.
Sesshomaru took the site of his mate-to-be's state of awakening, her light turquoise blue hair was mussed, her azure eyes still a bit dazed, and her strange yet somewhat comfy looking outfit. Kagome blushed at his almost seemed passionate gaze. "You woke me up… what time is it anyways?"
Sesshomaru stopped staring so intensely at Kagome, "According to your time, 9:00." Kagome stared at him a moment, "Is that late?" Sesshomaru allowed a small smirk to grace his features, "Yes." Kagome's blush intensified, "And I was planning on bathing this morning…. Darn."
Sesshomaru smirk intensified slightly, "I suppose you may still go, but you will be late for breakfast." Kagome smiled, "Oh well! Does Rin need a bath?" Sesshomaru's amber eyes stared at her for a long moment, "I suppose."
Kagome smiled again, "Okay, well let's go kiddos." Rin grinned, "Kagome-chan don't forget to grab some clothes!" Kagome giggled, "Oops. Thank you Rin." Rin just smiled brightly at her. "How do you think the weather will be like today Sesshomaru?"
"There will be a light drizzle today but still warm." He stated. Kagome grinned, "Wish Tenshi's could do that." Sesshomaru raised his eyebrow and Rin and Shippo giggled. Kagome walked over to the closet and pulled out a light weight dark blue kimono with light grayish/black sego lilies placed on the ends of the sleeves and at the bottom of her kimono. She as well grabbed a grayish/black obi. Than grabbed Shippo a little outfit and shoes of course.
Kagome walked back out of the closet and smiled, "Mind taking us there Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked. Sesshomaru started for the door and the children followed after the both of them.
After Kagome and the children bathed Sesshomaru led them to the dining room. As soon as Sesshomaru sat down, after pulling at a chair for Kagome and Rin (Shippo's in Kagome's lap.) Hisui almost instantly sat down next to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed at this, though he was by Kagome, he was still by the neeko wench.
"Ohayou Maru-maru-chan!!" Hisui's high voice wanted to make Sesshomaru wince in pain, but of course the TaiYoukai resisted the urge to do so. Sesshomaru made no reply what-so-ever. Hisui pouted, "Don't be so rude, Maru-maru-chan! You could at least speak to your Mate-to-be!"
Sesshomaru scoffed, "This Sesshomaru has no desire to make you his mate." Hisui giggled inanely, "Oh don't be so coy! We both know you love me and know that we were meant to be together!! So why don't you just give me the necklace and get it over with?"
Sesshomaru growled demanding her silence the neeko didn't seem to get the hint. Just as Hisui again began talking Kane showed up and kissed Kagome's hand while she turned cherry red. "Good morning Kagome." Kagome pulled her hand away, "G-good morning."
Kane frowned, "Aww, you didn't save me a seat." Kagome looked down from his intense stare, "I didn't know you were going to come…. I actually didn't expect you to." Kane smirked, "No problem, just save me a seat tomorrow, and we'll call it even." Kagome just nodded and handed Shippo his glass of milk he was trying to reach for.
Sesshomaru growled at Kane's advances on Kagome. In response, Kane gave Sesshomaru a large smirk knowing he was getting on the Lord's nerves. Sesshomaru's amber eyes narrowed some more. Hisui again began to babble about anything under the sun about her.
"Do you like my hair like this Maru-maru-chan, or down like yesterday? I can also do an interesting twist and pull it up really neatly! So what do you think? Up, down, or like I suggested. I have a really gorgeous kimono that will show my neck easier than the others and it will show your mark a lot better after we mate! Oh I think you'll absolutely love it Maru-maru-chan, because I love it so much you have to love it!!" Hisui kept going on and on and on. Her high squeaky voice was starting to give Sesshomaru a large headache.
"I was thinking Kagome, after breakfast, we can drop off your kitsune and than we can go to the arena. And maybe later you'll give me the honor to escort you around the castle. Somebody had mentioned you had become lost last night." Kane as well was speaking a lot keeping the young girl very occupied. "Umm… I suppose so, but who told you? I think only Tokei knew that I was lost, because he was the only person who had found me." Kagome commented.
Kane smirked his beautiful sharp canines gleamed, "Rumor gets around quickly here. In fact, youkai love to gossip, they will twist and destroy the truth of what really happened." Kagome gave a small smile to that, 'Sounds like High School.' She thought remembering her old life back home. "Oh I see." Was Kagome's small reply.
'She's going with that damned neeko to the arena?' Sesshomaru thought fuming, though of course his aura nor did his facial features show what-so-ever. After Kagome, Shippo, and Rin finished eating Kane asked Kagome if she were ready to go.
"Umm, actually, I think I need to go brush my teeth." Kagome commented. Kane gave her a very confused look. "Uh, it's like cleaning them, making your breath not smell and your teeth not yellow." Kagome informed him. Kane seemed surprised, "Oh… okay." He smirked once more, "Than will you allow me to accompany you my dear lady?" Kagome blushed and shot Sesshomaru a look, but unfortunately for her Sesshomaru didn't even look as if he cared, at all.
Kagome looked back down to Shippo and he gave her a soft smile, "Alright. Sesshomaru is it okay if I take Rin with me?" Sesshomaru raised his eyebrow in response. "I heard Rin mention something about wanting to go see Kaminari when I was in the closet." Sesshomaru gave her a curt nod.
"Ready kids?" both kids grabbed Kagome's opposite hands and walked with her after Rin said her goodbye's and hugs to Sesshomaru. Kagome smiled sweetly to Sesshomaru and walked with the handsome blonde haired neeko youkai.
As soon as Kagome, the children, and Kane left Sesshomaru stood to leave through the opposite doors. Hisui instantly stood up and clung to his only arm; Sesshomaru growled. "Wench let go of this Sesshomaru." His voice was a thick blanket of ice. Hisui feigned innocence, "Oh Maru-maru-chan, I don't see why you are so upset, I thought you loved me?"
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow at that, "This Sesshomaru will never love you Hisui." He growled lowly. "Oh don't be so modest, mate!" Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed and his eyes bled red for a slight second before he threw Hisui off and into a random wall.
Quite easily he used his youkai speed and ran up stairs and around a couple random corners. In a matter of moments Sesshomaru stopped and prowled irritatingly into the unoccupied Central Castle Library. 'Peace….' He sat there perfectly erect on the relaxing settee, though his long legs were crossed. And his top leg was moving back and forth restlessly.
What in the living hells was wrong with Kagome? He thought that after yesterday and his reaction to Kane's scent on her would be enough to get through to her. He uncrossed his legs and silently tapped his foot against the lush French rug. 'Excepting an outing with the disgraceful neeko completely intolerable.'
His lips drew back and his large canine fangs seemed to suddenly enlarge. Red flashed in his naturally golden eyes and his hair began to lift by some unseen force. But before the TaiYoukai's inner youkai could even let out an enraged growl all his usual features returned gold eyes, fangs, and hair all calmed faster than they came out.
Sesshomaru stared down at his clawed hand tightened against his knee, 'Foolish.' He thought. 'Losing control, over a woman.' His lip seemed threatened to lift and flash his pearly white fangs. 'This is becoming too much. I have to ask her before she becomes too confused with that whelp of a youkai.' He thought a bit uneasily.
'Easier said than done, nani?' his self-conscious spoke softly not its usual playfulness.
Sesshomaru sighed, 'I can get the bitch if I want to.' He spoke to himself arrogantly.
'But if you did that, Kagome wouldn't love you as much.'
Sesshomaru scoffed, 'Like I need her love. I will get what I want when I want. And I want her as my own now.'
He could see his self-conscious frown, 'Come now… you don't mean that. In fact… you're letting Kane really get to you, ya know.'
Sesshomaru turned his face away looking at the many shelves filled with scrolls of past and present. It was almost as if his self-conscious was really his father, it was his own voice, but it was much like his father its attitude anyways. Sesshomaru frowned, 'What is it that you expect me to do. I have done two of the four steps of courting.'
Sesshomaru's conscious sighed, 'Ya know there is five, right?'
'It is not important.' His conscious rolled its eyes, 'You're acting like a big baby you know that.'
Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed, 'This Sesshomaru is no pup. I have just lost my patience with Kagome that is all.' His conscious sighed yet again, 'I haven't bugged you in over a month. And now that you need me to most, you push me away it's a contrary game I have noticed ya know.
'And I sure as hell hope Kagome starts noticing it soon, too. Or you'll end up breaking the poor girl's heart twice and than she'll really run to Kane.'
'Are you saying this Sesshomaru cannot get what I want?' Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed dangerously low. His self-conscious rolled its eyes, 'No! What I'm saying is you better stop your crap, be nicer to Kagome, and explain yourself! Like she really knew that you did that with her on the balcony because of Kane and you wanted to show your dominance in the relationship.
'Kagome is a Tenshi who's customs are closer to mortals than they are youkai! If you don't start treating her with respect and start explaining your prick ass than you'll lose her and than who the hell will you have left?!'
Sesshomaru's eyes widened a slight fraction but no reply came to his mind. 'Exactly! No one!' Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes again, 'I will have Rin.' His conscious rolled its eyes, 'Oh yea. When you loose Kagome, Rin will hate you for not getting her the Oka-san she wishes to gain. Than what, Kagome will be afraid of you and Rin will hate you. And all you have is your damned lands and the castle.'
Sesshomaru kept silent soaking this all in, 'Did you set some sort of spell on this Sesshomaru?' It was his conscious turn to be silent now. 'Why would I set a spell on myself, that's just inane.' Sesshomaru turned to face the front of the library again. 'You sound as if you are father. Only father would lecture me in such a way. I would not lecture myself, nor would I tell myself repeatedly that I love the miko before I could even consider it.'
His conscious didn't reply. It didn't reply for what seemed at least thirty minutes later but the young lord was patient. Patient enough to find out what or more like who was in his head when no one but himself should be.
Sesshomaru's conscious sighed, 'Shouldn't you be checking on your mate-to-be?' Sesshomaru gave a small smirk, 'Changing the subject, ne?' he could see his self-conscious smirk as well, 'Might be. But you should go check on her, she is after all probably at the arena now.'
Sesshomaru stood and walked to a large window which oversaw most of the castle grounds. There he saw the ignorant neeko leading Kagome, away from her brother and pup, towards the battle arena.
Sesshomaru began pacing slowly he had many options. He could run down there and swipe Kagome right under Kane's nose, challenge Kane to a battle, yank Kagome back to the castle with him, or he could allow Kagome to go along with the date and interfere if Kane becomes to close for Kagome's comfort.
But ¾ of them would end up hurting or upsetting Kagome. Sesshomaru apprehensively chose the latter. He may be Kagome's soul mate but she deserved to have a vacation such as this one, not more responsibilities piled on with Kane and him battling over her heart. Sesshomaru gave a soft sigh and went to search for a book that would catch his interest and settle his over active mind.

As Kane, Kagome, and the children headed towards the Southern end of the castle and outside, they had run into Kaminari. Kaminari seemed rather tense about Kane and rather happily took Rin. Kagome kept giving her confused looks but Kaminari just said they'd talk later.
When Kagome turned back towards Kane he was looking at the arena, where obviously a battle was taking place. "Your brother is this way if you're ready to go." Kane flashed her devilish smirk. Kagome blushed, "Um okay."
They walked a little ways, away from the arena Kagome noticed, and towards a beautiful flower field. In the center of the field stood Tachi-mora and Shunusuke both sweating and neither had their shirts on.
(Droooooooling!!!)
"Alright…. Oh, hey Kagome!" Tsurai waved over to the young azure colored Tenshi. Kagome ran over there, "Hi Tsurai, the guys training?" Tsurai gave her a smile, "Yep, they want to compete in the arena in front of everybody."
Kane walked next to Kagome, "Do they know they can only battle if their fighting over a woman?" Both Shunusuke and Tachi-mora walked towards Kagome and the other two males, "Oh really?" Shunusuke asked. Kane nodded, "Well this sucks…." Tachi-mora replied.
"Oh well… we still need to train, it would suck if we didn't train for two weeks straight just because we're horny little bastards." Tachi-mora smirked. Kagome's eyes widened, "Tachi-mora!!" Tachi-mora laughed in response. "You're such a perv!"
"Ah, get use to it, all guys are perverts!" Tachi-mora laughed even harder at Kagome's face a mixture of blushing and being flabbergasted. Shunusuke chuckled, "Yea Kagome… it's true I'd get use to it now honey." Kagome looked like she was ready to slap both of them, even though Shunusuke was being a bit more advising than being flat out crude like her brother.
"And to think one of our best friends is a major hentai." Shippo mumbled. Kagome smiled, "Yep darn that houshi he better be being good considering we left him with just Inuyasha and Sango." Shippo smiled. "I never thought of you the type to hang out with a pervert, Kagome."
"Oh no Tsurai, it's a long story, I'll tell you guys all about it later, but actually right now Kane and I were wondering if you guys could take care of Shippo for us." Kagome asked the elder Tenshis. Shippo gave Kagome a look of disbelief but Kagome missed it. Tachi-mora shrugged, "I guess it'll be okay. We're not going to be doing anything much today, but I am going to dump slutty bitch today."
Kagome giggled, "Though I disapprove of men calling women bitches, I think your description fits her rather well." She smiled at him. "Yea, he's going to do it through song and than he'll dump her out loud in front of everybody." Shunusuke revealed to Kagome.
"You guys are cruel." She responded. "And she's a whore." Tachi-mora said with venom. Kagome shook her head, "Alright well, we're gonna go, don't rip off any limbs. I've already had to watch one guy loose a limb before." Shunusuke smirked, "Ah can't imagine who it was." Kagome smiled, "Bye!"
As Kagome walked away she could hear Tachi-mora and Shunusuke's grunts from already battling all over again. Also, "Wanna help me judge little guy?" Kagome smiled, "You are quite fond of that kit." Kane remarked as they strolled towards the arena.
Kagome looked up at him, "Yea, he might as well be my own." Kane made a small almost inaudible 'hmm'. Kane lead Kagome towards the arena his hand on the small of her back. Kagome gasped as they neared it, "I was picturing a normal little arena! Not this!"
The arena was actually more like some sort of coliseum, you walked in through large carved stoned doors. There were many staircases (all made of stone) leading, Kagome supposed, to different rows that you wanted. Kane seemed to know where he was going as he lead her to a certain stair case that lead to the outside. From there you could see rows among rows among rows of people and just… rows. All made of stone. Than in the center was a large arena where two cobra youkai were fighting.
"Suki is mine!" one with green eyes hissed. The other was wheezing really badly as Kagome sat down with Kane. The one who wasn't too badly injured transformed into his true form, and Kagome paled, "He's… he's humongous!!" Kagome gasped in surprise. Kane smirked, "Hmm.. I suppose he is." Kagome turned quickly and looked at him. "You mean you've seen a cobra bigger than that?" Kagome asked in disbelief.
Kane chuckled, the rich vibrant tone ran through her, "Yes, you seem to forget I'm the nephew of the Southern Lands. I have seen quite a few things in my life span." Kagome smiled at him, "How old are you, if you don't mind my asking."
Kane's brilliant smile stayed in place, "Hmm… I believe I'm rounding about 350…" he said in somewhat deep thought. Kagome's eyes bugged, "Are you serious?" Kane chuckled once more, the sound was very pleasant, Kagome thought. She was starting to accept and if she had the time to truly ponder on it, she might even begin to see this man more than just another guy in the large castle.
"How old are you, 100?" Kane asked turning his body towards her as well. Kagome giggled, "Not even close." Kane raised a golden eyebrow at that, "Than you are less than a century?" Kagome giggled, "I'm a little over a decade if you want to keep talking in these terms."
Kane's smirk seemed to falter slightly, "How young are you little one?" Kagome looked up into the sky were clouds were starting to form, "I'm turning 16 soon, a couple weeks after this festival."
"You- you're so young!" Kane's dark blue eyes grew in his shock. Kagome blushed, "I suppose so…." Kagome turned back to watch the battle, and amazingly the cobra whom didn't transform had one the battle, and Lord Hayai had to stop him from killing the green eyed one.
'No one had mentioned she was this young. This could become a problem…. But I will take my chances.' His cocky grin coming back into place again, 'So what if she's young, that means she'll be able to live longer and birth me stronger kits.'
As the battles went on Kane noticed that Kagome would flinch every now and than and that she looked rather amazed by every other move. And during her state Kane would scoot closer to her until their thighs were touching.
Kagome flashed him a small uncomfortable look and blushed at the close contact. 'What is he doing, he acts as if he doesn't even notice.' In fact, the beautiful blonde hair, blue eyed neeko was still watching the battle rather intently. Kagome scooted over the slightest bit putting more space in between them.
'Where's Sesshomaru?' she thought uneasily. 'Where could he be? Wait. Stop, you're with Kane, not Sesshomaru so think of Kane and not of Sesshomaru.' The young teal haired Tenshi tried to convince herself. 'I wonder if he and Hisui are still together. Or if Sesshomaru had abandoned her. Stop it! Watch the battle! Just don't think of Sesshomaru!'
Kane watched Kagome from the corner of his eye, though she wouldn't been able to tell, the wind was blowing his long bangs in front of his eyes and prevented her from seeing. He slowly, gently wrapped an arm around her waist and she stiffened greatly and this time she gave him a very uncomfortable look.
He gave her a gentle smile, "Come now, don't tell me in your 16 years you've never been held by a man." Kagome blushed and tried to scoot away again, but his grip tightened slightly. "Actually, no I haven't. Only once and it don't count, it was a trap from my best friend." She said with unease thinking of Inuyasha when he forced her down the well and when he snatched the Jewel away from her after a battle. 'With Sesshomaru….' She thought.
"Hmm… that makes it almost hard to believe, you are so beautiful, I don't know why a man would never want to hold you." He flashed her one of his best smiles. Though his smile eased her slightly she was still very distressed.
Kagome looked away from him, his face was too close for her own comfort, and tried to search for an aura that she knew. Anyone at the moment would do but she couldn't seem to find anyone. After a battle or so, Kane was getting closer and closer by the moment.
Kagome abruptly stood up, "Excuse me Kane, I-I need to go." She back a few steps away from him and flew off back to the castle. As Kagome entered the castle she instantly searched for Sesshomaru's aura, in fact it wasn't very hard considering how large of an aura he had.
As Kagome's aura tapped against his Sesshomaru's seemed to wrap around her aura and than around her, warming her in a very pleasant and relaxing way. Kagome flew towards the area in which his aura was the strongest, and entered the room.
"Sesshomaru?" she called gently as she shut the door behind her. She gasped slightly, she was in a library, a library that had thousands and thousands of shelves on either side of her. Each shelf stock full of dusty, old scrolls or new, finely made rice paper.
Kagome looked to her right where she saw a dark silhouette that outlined Sesshomaru perfectly. As he walked closer the light from the large window hit him his features became more apparent more refined with each step. His hair was back in a beautiful fishtail braid at the end had a small black ribbon. He was wearing a dark azure kimono with beautiful embroidery every which way and his normal boots. His amber eyes seemed more noticeable with all the darks and that's what made it apparent to Kagome that the young TaiYoukai of the West was upset.
Sesshomaru looked her over a moment their kimonos were rather similar. And than he turned away heading for the coach again to sit down and go over a few things of the past. Kagome walked tentatively over to Sesshomaru and sat down next to him. "Sesshomaru," she said quietly, "Are you angry with me?" Sesshomaru slowly put down the scroll. "Why is it that you ask such a question." It was no question he requested an answer.
Kagome looked down at her hands that were tracing the small wrinkles in her kimono, "You didn't seem very pleased at breakfast and now you won't even comment that I'm here." Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed, "I'm talking to you now." Kagome's azure eyes were downcast, "Not like you usually do…. It's more like before." She whispered the last part.
Sesshomaru set the scroll aside on the small table next to him. He turned to her slowly, almost unsure of his own actions, and traced her cheek with his only demonic arm. "I wish to …. Apologize." He said slowly. Kagome looked up at him, even though she was leaning into his touch, "Why?"
"My actions were unacceptable." Sesshomaru commented, "Though…. When did the neeko invite you to the arena with him?" Sesshomaru asked his voice was firm again but still his more gentle tone. Kagome quickly looked back down at her hands and she pulled her lower lip into her mouth.
"I … uh… before I joined you, Koori, and Akira yesterday." Kagome stammered. Sesshomaru's golden eyes narrowed, his aura became harsh and cold and a deep vibrating growl escaped from his throat. Kagome stiffened at the different and new surroundings around her.
Sesshomaru suddenly leaned in close to Kagome and nipped her ear, "Oh? Is that so?" his voice was much deeper much colder. Kagome gasped and turned to him her hand came up and gently cupped his cheek. Sesshomaru's eyes were indifferent and it sent chills down her spine.
Sesshomaru resisted the urge to lean into her soft gentle touch. He noticed even though he was giving her one of the coldest harshest glares he could give anyone she didn't back down, he could sense her fear but she refused to break so easily. "I didn't come here for you to act this way Sesshomaru." She spoke in a soft voice, "I came here to spend time with you and to get away from Kane."
Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed as he sniffed gently, "His scent is all over you." He snarled. "That's why I got away…. He was getting too close, acting too nonchalant…. He, he frightened me." She whispered and looked down at her hand on her lap. Sesshomaru turned his face into her palm and kissed it tenderly.
Kagome's wings sagged a bit and she sighed, "Sesshomaru….?" She questioned softly. Sesshomaru turned his face back to her, but kept his face within her small delicate palm. "What is it?" His mouth formed the word 'Ai' but his voice had captured in his throat, luckily the young Tenshi before him was still looking down.
"Why do you-?" she started to say but the door suddenly bust open, with a very pissed off looking Tachi-mora. "What the hell did Kane do to you Kagome?" the dark Tenshi demanded as he stormed in with only a pair of black jeans on with his boots, his shirt obviously forgotten in the field. Kagome blushed brightly and pulled away from Sesshomaru just as the young Lord straightened himself.
"Nothing too wrong." She muttered. Tachi-mora was now in front of her; lifting her chin to him he glared. "I felt you searching for something, more precisely someone with your aura! What the hell made you seem so desperate?" Sesshomaru again turned Kagome as she tried to look down and away from her brother's intense green eyes.
"Kagome." Sesshomaru said softly but firmly. Kagome's fingers twisted together her bottom lip again sucking into her mouth. "He… he just kept advancing on me, trying to hold me and than was commenting about my age…. And he wouldn't stop looking at me…. He looked as though he was ready to eat me." She whispered.
Both Dark Tenshi and TaiYoukai narrowed their eyes at the same time. Just then, Shunusuke, Tsurai, and Shippo raced in. Shippo charged and ended up in Kagome's lap, "Oka-san what's wrong?" Shippo asked. "Kags?" Tsurai inquired. "You okay?" Shunusuke finished. Kagome nodded her head quickly.
Tachi-mora dropped his hand from her small chin, "Damn that bloody bastard!" Tachi-mora raced out using his inhuman and might as well be inTenshi speed most likely to hunt down the beautiful blonde haired neeko. Shunusuke and Tsurai's eyes widened, "Tachi-mora!" and they too chased after him.
After it seemed to quiet down a bit, Kagome shuddered, "I shouldn't have gone with Kane today…. It caused too many problems, more problems than it's worth." Shippo looked over at Sesshomaru, he seemed worried, "I'm going to go find Rin, and we'll meet you for lunch Mommy." Shippo said softly afraid that if he spoke louder it would frighten her out of her own skin.
Kagome just nodded and it seemed years to Sesshomaru before she spoke again. "Do you think… do you think I'm ruining Tachi's vacation?" she asked her face tracing his face for any reply. Sesshomaru gently smiled, "I'm not sure, little one. You know your brother more than I do." He responded.

Kaminari walked around with Rin through the large gardens and now through the field. As they sat there Rin was trying to copy Kaminari's work of weaving the flowers into a wreath. As Rin struggled Kaminari's mind wandered else where, mostly on her best friend Kagome.
It was rather mild to say she was worried for the girl, considering Kagome was obviously very young by her sweet innocence and care for everything that she could lay her eyes on. She was more than worried for Kagome though, it was more like overly large concern for her.
Kane was not the type of person Kagome should be courted by. In her own personal opinion, she should be with Sesshomaru, as thought the rest of her family, Akira, and Koori thought as well. Even young little Rin and Shippo thought as well. Kaminari sighed, how in the world could she explain to Kagome that North and South shouldn't exactly combine and West and East weren't on nice terms either.
"Like this Kaminari-chan?" Kaminari looked over at Rin, "Hmm? Oh right yea! Very good! Make me another, sweets." Rin giggled in response. Kaminari sighed once more, another thing on her mind was her best friend's brother. He was constantly on her mind, with his beautiful black wings with dark blue tips, hazel green eyes, his beautiful smile, and his striking black hair. He was a Kami with a broken soul and in need of love….and it just so happened she assumed or perhaps there was a great possibility that, 'I'm in love…. In love with someone that can never be obtained.'
Tachi-mora was suddenly in front of her and Rin. "T-Tachi-mora?" Kaminari stuttered out, he had caught her off guard with his inyoukai speed. Tachi-mora's eyes were harsh and cold his green eyes glaring. But she could tell it wasn't pointed exactly on her.
"Tell me what you can of the arenas rules before I go and kill Kane." He barked out. Kaminari narrowed her eyebrows, "Tachi-mora settle down, tell me what happened, before you go and do something so rash."
Tachi-mora took in a deep shuddering breath before plopping down in front of her. "Kane freaked out Kagome and now she's all antsy. The bastard obviously scared the shit out of her because she ran straight for Sesshomaru…. Her mate-to-be, I know they are meant Kaminari, please don't tell me I'm crazy."
But instead of Kaminari telling him he was crazy, she gave him a brilliant smile, "No, I believe you. I get the same feeling as well. In fact, the children are trying to hook them up too." Her smile brightened as he seemed to relax more. Kaminari placed a gentle hand on Tachi-mora shoulder, "Please don't go do anything rash. I understand that Kagome means the world to you and you just want her to be safe…. But she needs to learn to make her own decisions. No matter the consequences." Kaminari told him softly.
Tachi-mora looked away from her gentle eyes, "I know…. I-I" Tachi-mora stammered. 'I just don't want her to end up like me…. Make my mistakes. Make father's mistakes.' He finished within his own mind. Kaminari sighed, "It's okay…." She responded. Tachi-mora narrowed his eyes slightly, "Don't tell me… you're psychic." Kaminari just giggled in response.

Kagome walked around the large library and looked at the many different scrolls, trying to find one that caught her attention. Finally one did and she walked back to the coach were Sesshomaru beat her there. "I think I might have found one good." She said with a smile on her face. She was a lot less tense now and a bit happier that she was away from Kane and in Sesshomaru's presence instead. Also she sensed Tachi-mora and Kaminari together.
Sesshomaru lifted an eyebrow and wrapped his tail around her shoulders as she sat down beside him. As Kagome read through the scroll, completely entranced she gasped in wonder and amazement.
"I can't believe this!" Kagome giggled. "It looks as though you're mother was the first youkai in over 200 years to sing Bring Me To Life and call for you're father's help." Sesshomaru turned towards her and looked over the scroll, "So it seems."
Kagome read through it some more, "How come she sang it, it doesn't say." Kagome asked him. "It's very rare to call for your mate or mate-to-be when you are in such tremendous pain or such. Most youkai do not because they couldn't care less for their mate or they have the power to protect themselves.
"In fact, only youkai are really known to actually know the Sacred Song." Kagome looked up with wonderment in her aqua blue eyes and some slight confusion. "It is called the Sacred Song because it's when you are in such anguish you cannot control yourself that only you're mate can truly save you after you reach a certain phase in it."
Kagome sat there in awe, "I sing a song often that has a tremendous meaning…. I never knew…." She spoke. Sesshomaru smirked and leaned back against the couch, "Before mother, nobody had sung the Sacred Song in over 400 years. And now it seems to have been 400 years, the scroll is old." He informed her. Kagome smiled, "This is so neat. I'll have to tell momma when I get back home."
Sesshomaru closed his eyes and relaxed against the two comforts around him, the couch and the beautiful young woman beside him, Kagome.

It was a few hours before the main event of the night Tachi-mora, Shunusuke, Tsurai, and Tokei all decide it was time to dump the damn bitch. Tachi-mora made sure Kagome, Sesshomaru, Kaminari, and Kemurai were all there. He personally didn't care about the others.
"You guys ready?!" Shunusuke asked the large crowd, they had made such a big scene the day before that the whole room was crowded with humans and youkai alike considering Kagome was the only other Tenshi that wasn't on stage.
"This song is called Kryptonite." Tachi-mora said.
"I took a walk around the world To ease my troubled mind I left my body laying somewhere In the sands of time But I watched the world float To the dark side of the moon" Tachi-mora started out. The gentle strum of the guitars seemed to calm the whole crowd.
"I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah I watched the world float To the dark side of the moon After all I knew it had to be Something to do with you" Tachi-mora pointed at Kemurai. "I really don't mind what happens now and then As long as you'll be my friend at the end"
Tachi-mora seemed to have this cold chill about him though. It was rather obvious that the young Tenshi was angry or upset about something.
"If I go crazy then will you still Call me Superman? If I'm alive and well, will you be There a-holding my hand I'll keep you by my side With my superhuman might
Kryptonite"
Tachi-mora's eyes grew colder and harder by the second. And at each glance at Kemurai it became worse. "You called me strong, you called me weak, But still your secrets I will keep You took for granted all the times I never let you down" he shook his head from remembering each and every time she had done all these things and yet he was still there for her.
"You stumbled in and bumped your head, If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back On solid ground"
Tachi-mora again sang the chorus except this time Shunusuke joined in, "If I go crazy then will you still Call me Superman If I'm alive and well, Will you be there a-holding my hand I'll keep you by my side With my superhuman might Kryptonite Yeah!!"
Tachi-mora seemed to suddenly disappear from the stage but actually he ended up right in front of Kemurai, she was sitting next to Hisui and the Raven Youkai. "If I go crazy then will you still Call me Superman?" he asked her instead of sang to her. "If I'm alive and well will you be there holding my hand?" he held out his hand, "I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman"
Tachi-mora noticed she wasn't going to grab his hand and he snatched it away and flew quickly back to the stage, "Might Kryptonite, YEAH!!"
"If I go crazy then will you still Call me Superman If I'm alive and well, Will you be there a-holding my hand I'll keep you by my side With my superhuman might
Kryptonite Yeah!!" Tachi-mora was now purposely pointing at Kemurai and it was now completely obvious, Kemurai had failed some sort of test on loyalty.
She gasped and narrowed her eyes once she realized it. But Tachi-mora and his group were already onto the next song, "This song is dedicated to my lovely, wonderful girlfriend Kemurai." His voice lacked all the tender sweetness it should have had.
Tokei went behind stage a moment and pulled out Kagome's CD player, and popped a CD within it. Tsurai came out from behind his drum set and Shunusuke and Tachi-mora put down their guitars on the stands.
Shunusuke started out: "My dear, my dear, my dear You do not know me But I know you very well Now let me tell you that I caught you My dear, my dear, my dear You do not know me But I know you very well Now let me tell you that I caught you"
Tachi-mora soon started next, "Talk to me, tell me, where you were" a cold smirk was placed on Tachi-mora's lips.
Shunusuke and Tsurai: Late, last night
Tachi-mora: "Ya-you told me, you were with your friends hanging out"
Shunusuke and Tsurai: Late, last night
Tachi-mora: Ya-you're lying cuz you're studdering Now where were you?
Shunusuke and Tsurai: Late, last night
Tachi-mora: Stop lying to me cause you're tickin' me off See you're tickin' me off, ooh
Shunusuke and Tsurai: I can tell you're lying Cause when you're replying You stutter, stutters, sta-stutter, stutter
Tachi-mora: I can tell…
Shunusuke and Tsurai: I can tell you're lying Cause when you're replying You stutter, stutters, sta-stutter, stutter
Tachi-mora: Ohh…
Shunusuke and Tsurai: can tell you're lying Cause when you're replying You stutter, stutters, sta-stutter, stutter I can tell you're lying Cause when you're replying You stutter, stutters, sta-stutter, stutter
Tachi-mora suddenly pulled out his cell phone and did the actions as quickly as he sung them: I called you on your cell phone No answer, So I paged you on your two way Still no response,
Tachi-mora's eyes narrowed and he pointed at Kemurai: I took care of you, I loved you And you played me, Stop lying to me about where you've been Cause you're tickin' me off, tick-tick-tickin' me off
Shunusuke and Tsurai: Tell me why (2x)
Shunusuke and Tsurai: I can tell you're lying Cause when you're replying You stutter, stutters, sta-stutter, stutter (4x)
Shunusuke: My dear, my dear, my dear You do not know me But I know you very well Now let me tell you that I caught you My dear, my dear, my dear You do not know me But I know you very well Now let me tell you that I caught you
Tachi-mora ground his teeth together as he waited for his next part to come on, the one that would be most obvious to Kemurai, who the victor truly was in this game. As the CD kept playing considering most of it was karaoke there just happened to be one part that wasn't, and it was Mystikal's part.
"Unfortunately for us," Shunusuke said as Mystikal sung, "We can't control this part of the song." So they waited the few moments until Mystikal disappeared from the song.
Tachi-mora again disappeared from stage but this time he was behind Kemurai. He traced his fingers against her face from behind her and was dangerously close to her ear as he sung this, "I smell cologne damn it's strong, How did ya get it on?"
Shunusuke and Tsurai: I'm not dumb
Tachi-mora ran his hand through Kemurai's hair and pulled it out of it's once beautiful up due. "He messed up your hair" he licked his thumb and wiped it across her cheek that had lots of make up on it, "Make-up's every where Ooh yeah"
Kemurai started to cry and Tachi-mora almost gagged.
Shunusuke and Tsurai: I'm not dumb
Tachi-mora turned her chair around to face him his face was livid and he was damn near strangling the bitch. He was now nose to nose with her, "Girl your crying 'cause your lyin' To my face,"
Shunusuke and Tsurai: I'm not dumb
Tachi-mora growled, "Stop lying to me about seeing a man Cause you're tickin' me off , tick-tick-tickin' me off."
Tachi-mora pulled away from Kemurai as fast as he could, and glared quite pointedly at the Raven Youkai.
"I can tell you're lying
Cause when you're replying
You stutter, stutters, sta-stutter, stutter" (4x)
As the song ended and Tokei took out the CD and turned the player off, Tachi-mora looked back at the bawling Kemurai. "Oh and Kemurai." He said in a sickly sweet voice, "If you didn't notice darling, it's over." He stated in a deathly cold voice.

Kagome was wrapped in a gorgeous dark maroon kimono with a floral patterned obi. Her aqua colored hair was pulled back in two low pig tails, both pulled into a loop and wrapped back to the beginning.
Kagome giggled as she turned in a complete circle in front of the mirror. "Wow." Shippo said, "Mommy you look wonderful!" he exclaimed. Kagome giggled and picked up her kit, "Thanks sweetie!" There was a knock on her door and Kagome allowed the TaiYoukai of the West into her room.
"Are you ready?" he asked her, his eyes shamelessly running over her body. Kagome blushed at his close scrutiny. Shippo jumped on Kagome's shoulder and Rin was already on Sesshomaru's. "Come, let us drop off the children." Sesshomaru said leading Kagome away towards the child care area.
They dropped off the kids and Sesshomaru led Kagome to the gardens where over half of the castle's people would be there. As Sesshomaru chose a spot, he pulled Kagome in close, "You look lovely." He purred. Kagome's blush turned even brighter than before. "T-Thank you." She whispered.
He nipped her ear and sat down on the lush grass; pulling Kagome extremely close to his side. Kagome laid her head gently on his chest as they sat their under the stars. "Did the note on your dresser tell you that the stars will be flying tonight?" Kagome brought her head up to him, "Really?" Sesshomaru nodded his dark blue kimono matched the midnight sky.
Kagome traced the beautiful dragon on his kimono, 'What is this feeling? It's so much stronger. So warm…' she thought. One of the neighbors five feet away from them pointed up, "The first star!" the human woman exclaimed. And soon after, more and more fell from the midnight sky.
"Oh!" Kagome exclaimed in surprise, "It's a meteor shower!" Sesshomaru chuckled at her excitement, he himself didn't think it anything special, but being with Kagome was. 'How to explain this feeling? How can I prove to her I am the better choice?... I love her so much...' he thought.
"The stars always seem to just warm me," Kagome whispered, 'Much like you do.' She thought. A chill ran through her as she thought it, "They must not warm you enough than." Sesshomaru replied and Kagome soon found herself in the TaiYoukai's lap. She blushed a bright red but relaxed against him.
Tachi-mora ran through the field staring up at the sky, nobody was in the flower field, nobody but 'Kaminari? What is she doing out here?' he thought. Kaminari walked up to him, a beautiful green kimono braced her. It defined her green youkai markings very well, and her beautiful white smile.
"What are you doing out here?" Tachi-mora asked, butterflies entering his stomach. Kaminari blushed, "Getting away from the large crowds… I can see Sesshomaru and Kagome over there." She said pointing to the particular couple. Tachi-mora smiled, "Hopefully they'll hook up soon, I can't stand Kagome looking so mushy gushy all the time." He chuckled.
Kaminari stood beside the Dark Tenshi, "You seem rather relieved." She stated. Tachi-mora looked up at the sky as the meteor shower began, "Yea… I have and I'll always love Kemurai…. Just not in the way she wants me to. I think I love her as a friend, a person who was always there for me when nobody else was." Kaminari's face fell at the sound of the love, but she noticed it too was different. "I see." She said quietly.
Tachi-mora turned to her, "Just from experience, can you tell me something?" Kaminari gave him a quizzical look. "Sure." Tachi-mora looked away, "When you're near someone, do you ever get this weird feeling? A feeling that you just belong with her?" Kaminari gazed at him for a long moment, "Only once." She whispered in reply.
Tachi-mora looked at her, "Do you feel it now?" Kaminari blushed as he turned to look at her, "I…" she nodded her head and turned and looked away. Tachi-mora came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, "I do." He laid his forehead on her shoulder.
Kaminari shuddered in his arms, "Aren't you going a little quickly?" Tachi-mora chuckled, "I haven't felt this way in over 6 years…. It feels nice to be like this again." Kaminari turned in his arms, "What feeling?" Tachi-mora smirked, "Do you wish for me to show you?"
Kaminari blushed but nodded. Tachi-mora slowly brought his lips to hers a slow, sensual feeling. Tilting his head he prodded her bottom lip with his tongue and she shyly let him in. Tachi-mora's tongue slowly went over every little aspect of her mouth, from the back slowly to the front, and back again to her large canines.
Kaminari gasped and slowly allowed her tongue to enter his own. Her arms wrapped around his neck and one went into his hair to pull him closer. The kiss began to get more heated more rough. Kaminari pulled away from lack of breath and laid her head at the nape of his neck.
Tachi-mora raised one of his hands and rubbed her back gently softly. "You're absolutely beautiful Kaminari."
xx
Later that night after Sesshomaru and Kagome departed Kagome laid next to Shippo but she was wide awake. She knew that she should be asleep, it was at least 4 'o' clock in the morning. But the thoughts and the emotions that ran through her earlier were deep, the adventures she had lately were strong.
"I… I think I love Sesshomaru…" she said quietly to the sleeping world around her. It all added up to that. How she always looked for him first, how her heart fluttered quicker than usual, how he stole her first kiss. It all added up to the fact, "I love him, more than I have ever loved anyone…."
Her mind finally at rest and a surge of happiness the young azure Tenshi fell asleep.
xx
Sesshomaru laid in bed tossing, turning, but was far enough from Rin not to hurt her. This power running through him was not his own. What was going through him, 'MAKE IT STOP!!!' his youkai cried in pain. It felt as though his youkai power was leaving him leaving and embracing someone…. to protect her. Every single aspect of it leaving him.
He had to protect his pup... wait he had a pup. Yes of course he did. She was a human unlike him. Wait why was she a human. He couldn't remember. Yes she always wore that orange and yellow kimono? Or was it another color. She had black no... Brown hair. Why should he have a human for a pup? It didn't make since. He must protect her though... no matter who she was, she was important. Why... why couldn't remember? Who was she, where was his youkai powers?
Wait why would he have a pup and no mate? Where was his mate, why didn't he have one? He snarled loudly but no one seemed to here.
Or did he have a mate. His head pounded 'Make it stop...' Make what stop? Just let the flames engulf him. Let the pain take what it wants. He was protecting what he needed to be... right? Stop the pain!! It burns... its killing me slowly. Or is it? He must fight it no matter the cost.
He wouldn't loose, he's never lost... except against that other silver haired inu... who was he? What was so important about him? He hadn't felt this pain since he lost his arm... who made him loose his arm..? That wench! Wait... she was no wench... She was important to him... why did she look so familiar? Who was she... his mate? No... He had no mate. 'Search!'
His teeth gnashed together his eyes bled red; he was paralyzed within his own mind not being able to control himself. A cold dark roar ran through his head as he battled it, fought it, but it couldn't be stopped.
Think harder. So many bright colors... such a vivid blue... but so blurry who was she? Was it even a she? Who is it? So much blue and white... Ah! Let it engulf me! Make the pain stop!!!
He recognized the aura surrounding him, more than one, felt more like four were controlling him but he couldn't stop it. A flashing blind white ran through his eyes and all went blank but his youkai fought against it. But slowly… ever so slowly his youkai power diminished. The opposing youkai's auras' still fought strong, waiting patiently for him to give up.
Could she make the pain go away? He winced in pain. No, no one could. Why was she important it made no since. Such a soft kiss, sitting under the stars. Protecting her. Must protect her. 'AHHH? Fight it!' I can't…. I'm too weak. Loosing slowly.
'She can protect you…. Find her!!!' another voice? Who was this voice? Why did he recognize it too… it faded. No come back! Make the pain stop! Make it all go away! Salt and water burned his eyes….. Find her? Find who?! 'MAKE IT STOP!!' his eyes bled a deep maroon. His stripes and hair changed dramatically.
'STOP IT!! GRRR…' "AHHHH!!" Sesshomaru's inner youkai screamed in the pain… but it seemed as if nobody else could sense it… nobody else could hear it.
xx
"Part one… commenced… kukukuku……"
xx
'Find her…. Find your mate…….'
xx
