Chapter 2 No regrets

Kagome woke up before the sun had come up. She looked around her small hut to find that there were indeed two unfamiliar containers in her hut. Kagome did as the older priestess said before she when off training and kept this up for ten days. As she lay the last containers on the others they disappeared much to Kagome's surprise. Just as Kagome placed down the bored she heard talking out side her hut.

"Why do we still keep her around" a female voice said a bit irritated

"She has the jewel" A male voice barked out

"Then lets just take it" another male voice said calmly

" We can't it when back into her after it became whole again" a female said with an emotionless voice

"Then lets just kill her" the first male spoke again

Kagome could not hear the rest of what they said as the contuned to walk past.

' I recognize those voices... I can't believe they want me dead...'

Kagome finished packing and cleaning her hut. Today was her last day training Kaede said she would not be able train her any further. They day went by slowly and Kagome found her self at the well again.

"I miss you guys so much, why did I have to get stuck here"

Kagome notice that it was now dark out so she made her way back to her hut. Feeling to tired to cook she when straight to bed.

Kagome's Dream

Kagome found her self back in the field of flowers again, this time Lady Midoriko was standing by a lone standing sakura tree.

" Kagome if you would like to stay were you are now this is your last chance to stop the prosses"

"I want to start over I have no reason to stay any longer"

"very well"

Kagome smiled at the thought of being able to control her own life with out her first loves ridicule and constant put down.

"child why do you cry?"

Kagome did not even notice the tears stream down her cheek. Suddenly she felt something hard drop on her foot. It was a small purple tear shaped crystal. Kagome picked it up and looked at it confused.

"what is this?"

"Your tear my child, you are so powerful that it even runs through even your tears. Gather all your fallen tear young one."

Kagome did as she was told and plucked up every tear.

"why do we need then"

"pray with me"

Kagome did so and tears started to glow and fuse together. Glowing a little brighter they formed a small Jewel that looked like the Shikon. Kagome looked at it in utter shock.

"my child, in the morning un pack all of your things. Go to the springs there you will find all the blood I have asked you to collect. Discard you cloths and tare them then place your jewel in the torn clothing. You will see a kimono wait for you. This is what you will ware and your sent will change to that of the tea you hand drank. Scream and the blood will flow to look as if you were attacked. After this is done walk to the clearing of the well there will find a horse I will be there waiting." After instructing Kagome what to do again Lady Midoriko disappeared.

End of dream

Kagome woke up with a jolt... She started to unpack her things and set them out as if she were to be staying. The sun was about to rise and Kagome set off for her Daily bath. As she walked to the springs Kagome waved to the villagers and to Sango as if she had not heard anything. She did everything normal until she got to the springs. Kagome did as she was instructed, Not until She got to the edge of the clearing did she inspect her know kimono. It was a deep purple the Hakama's with form fitting black and silver torso/chest armor. And a flowing black and purple obi (similar to Sesshoumaru's yellow and blue one). Midoriko Beckoned to Kagome.

"child you can not remain looking the way you did" she said calmly

"what do you mean" Kagome said worried

"you must embrace your inner power and let it form you"

" If that is what I need to do then that is what I will do"

"then consentrate child"

Kagome did as she was told and started to glow. As the the light started to fade Kagome's new appearance started to show. Her hair was no down to her waist and a light purple with black streaks, Her eyes now amethyst in color her skin now paler (more like Sesshoumaru's) her nails were now claws of adament. Her canines were now sharpened to fine points. And on her cheeks, wrist, sides, thighs, and ankles there was a single stripe (again like Sesshoumaru's except one). On kagome's forehead was a marking thal looked to be the Shikon surrounded by sakura blossoms. (not muck bigger then Sesshoumaru's crescent)

"Here child you'll need this" Midoriko then handed Kagome a peace of armor that went from her writs to just below her elbow. Kagome place it on her right fore arm. On the peace of armor there was a flower the same as the one in her dream.

"If you don't mind me asking what is this for" Kagome timidly asked

" It will hold all of the weapons you will collect on your journey, all besides this one" She then Handed Kagome a sword, Kagome unsheathed it, is was made of a dragon's fang Kagome felt the power flow through her. The handle was leather and embedded with amethyst and smoky quarts.

"oh I see"

"Kagome his horse is a demon" Midoriko motion toward the horse "She does not have a name that is for you to deside, she has chosen you as her rider. This Horse will take you to your new home"

Kagome looked shocked " But lady Midoriko Don't demon horse only chose demons for there riders"

"yes child, you are a demon no"

"but how I still feel pure"

"you are you are a pure demon you have both demonic and holy powers"

"but how"

"you are an Inu, they can be both if powerful enough"

"Oh I see"

"We have no more time to speak you must go, I will visit you soon" With that again the Miko diappered.

'I really wish she would stop doing that'

At the springs

Inuyasha, Kikyo, and Kagome's old friends heard her scream and raced to the springs. Inuyasha smelt Kagome's blood and ran faster. He looked at the ground in shock and pain every one else got there shortly.

"please tell me that's not" Sango stammered

" It's Kagome's, she lost to much blood to have live she must have been eaten by a demon" Inuyasha said coldly

"I sense something...the Shikon" Kikyo said and she grabbed the jewel from the torn clothing.

"well that save us a lot of work" Miroku simply stated

"I can't help but feel bad, she was like a sister to us." Remorse heavy in Sango's voice

"what ever, stop moping around and lets make a wish"

"okay we all agreed to bring lady Kikyo"

"okay since Sango is the purest besides Kikyo she'll have to make the wish"

" I wish.." Sango gulped "that lady Kikyo was alive again"

and with a bright flash of pink the jewel disappeared and Kikyo started to glow. Inuyasha header her heart beat and the smell of grave side soil and death dissipated leaving her own sent of lilacs. He then picked her up and spun her around. Lady Midoriko watched from a distance ' for betraying Kagome you will have to be punished' with that said the group except Sango started to glow. Miroku's wind tunal reopened, Kikyo was unable to control her spiritual powers and Inuyasha seemed to have been unaffected.

"I don't understand what happened" Miroku said in shock

"It's must just be temporary don't worry about it" Kikyo said still happy

Back with Kagome

Kagome flew to her new home. It was what looked to be a run down hut at the side of a mountain. As she touched down a purple light surrounded the area and the hut became a large mansion, the garden came to life with all sorts of herbs and plants in her back garden there was a field full of her dream flowers and at the edge of the field was a lone standing cherry blossom tree. Surrounding her home were large gates. Kagome and here Horse walked into the gates and beside the house about four yards to the left was a stable. Kagome walked to the stable.

"Now for your name... um how about Nina"

Nina nodded then layed down in a stall. Kagome lest the stable to rome her new home. 'this place is huge, I don't think I want to live here alone'. Kagome reached the study as she felt the elder Miko's presence.

"Hello again"

"Hello Kagome, please sit down we have much to discuss" Kagome sat down

"this was built for you long ago. This home has been awaiting your arrival, tomorrow your servants and guards will arrive and your other trainer" Kagome took all of this in..

"wait other trainer"

"yes, I shall finish training you in your spiritual powers however you will need and Inu demoness to train you in your demonic powers. Your training will start tomorrow."

It took a moment for her to take this all in. 'why do things like this have to keep happening to me'

"okay I'll be ready"

Night was about to fall, so Kagome when to her room 'I could use a bath' as she was thinking that a door in her room slid open and there was a hot springs. "hm convenient" she bathed washing her hair the the soaps that were there. As she got out she noticed a towel and a robe on the bench next to the spring. "I really have to get use to this" After she put on her robe she walked to her room to get a kimono out of wardrobe. She notice that most of her kimonos looked like the one she had gotten earlier in the day. There were a few occasional kimonos and a few for training. On the the very right side she seen what she was looking for. "Hm I wonder why they are all purple and black...I'll have to ask Midoriko in the morning" Kagome then lied down in her massive bed and fell into a dreamless sleep.

Some were in the west

Sesshoumaru was patrolling his land as usual when he her a scream. It sounded like Ren, he ran to his castle and into Ren's room. Seeing his adopted daughter was in distress he shock her away.

"whats wrong Ren"

" I had a bad dream that you left me at a human village and you never came back again"

"Ren you know I will never do that"

"I'm sorry"

"princess are not sorry for nothing"

"kay...Daddy?"

"yes Ren"

"Can we go see Kagome tomorrow"

"of course, now go back to sleep"

"kay night daddy"

"good night Ren"

Sesshoumaru walked out of the room deep in thought. ' It's been a while since I have seen the beautiful Miko, She would make a good mother for Ren...wait what am I thinking" Sesshoumaru then when to bed and fell in to a deep dream less sleep.
