Hiya! I'm here for the next chapter! Yay!

Warning: Implied lemon in this chapter. Just to let you know!

When morning broke, she woke again, dressing fully this time and looking down at herself, frowning. She would stick out like a sore thumb if she wore these clothes, even though her origin was a priestess. She changed and now wore a white kimono with dark blue flowers on it, with a dark red obi. She sighed and thought, I tried to change the colors, but I've only worn these colors all my life, so what can I do?

Her wings spread, and in a flurry of feathers, she went back in time, to where her love was.

She appeared in Kaede's village and looked around, before retracting her wings and walking towards the forest of Inuyasha. I don't know what I'm going to say to him, but I'm going to admit finally that I love him. He proclaimed his love for me just as I was about to leave, now I have to return my feelings in words. Inuyasha-koi…

"What ails you, Inuyasha? Ever since Freya disappeared, your attitude has changed," Kaede questioned the hanyou.

"I'm fine, old woman. Now quit asking me all the time," Inuyasha snapped, glaring down at the old priestess. "There's nothing to do now that Shippo and Kagome left and the Shikon Jewel is completed. All it is is a big bore around here."

"I see. You miss Freya. Was she of some importance to you?"

"None of your business."

He sneezed, then looked down to see the necklace was glowing again. He held it and looked at the sky, wondering where she was at this very moment.

"I thought I'd find you here."

He jerked when he heard the voice and looked down to see the object of his thoughts greeting Kaede.

"Hello again, Kaede-san."

"Well, this is a pleasant surprise, Freya. Will you be staying long?"

"Oh, I don't know. It matters whether my errands that I have to run are ever completed."

He jumped down from his perch in the tree and walked over to her. She pretended to just notice him. She ran to him and hugged him around the middle, lifting him up and spinning around a few times before she set him down. He was startled by her greeting and stood still for a moment before she squealed, "Inuyasha-koi! I'm so glad to see you again!"

He grinned before embracing her tightly. "Freya. I thought you said you'd never come back here."

"You should know that I couldn't stop thinking about you. I'd bet that necklace drove you crazy by how many times it activated."

"Feh. You think something like that bothered me? It actually entertained me, seeing how many times a day it would light up. Other than that, I was bored out of my mind."

"Inuyasha, I have to tell you something, but not here."

She pulled him into the forest, away from prying eyes. When they stopped a little before the Bone Eaters' Well, she turned to him, smiling. "Inuyasha, I…"

She bit her lip, and he waited for a full five minutes before he raised her chin and looked into her eyes. "Freya, what're you nervous about? You've never been nervous about anything, the whole time I've known you."

Her eyes teared up as she drew him close, before she whispered, "I love you, Inuyasha."

He drew her back, only to descend for a passionate kiss. They lie together on the forest floor, after a fit of passion. She looked up at him, murmuring, "I'm so happy. I felt so empty in the heavens, no one is like you, Inuyasha."

He smiled and kissed her again. "Do you think you'll have a child because of this?"

She closed her eyes and nodded. "Our love is true, of course. Although it won't be taken well by those in the heavens."

"Well, I say they can all go to hell, for all I care. Nothing is ever gonna come between us again. I don't care how many I have to kill."

But…will you be able to defeat Koga? He's more powerful than almost any god or goddess in the heavens. Any mortal that ticks him off will be torched. Inuyasha might be powerful here, but compared to any god in the heavens, he's a mere bug that can be squashed. I hope Koga never finds me. Then again, that's something that I can never truly see happen. There's something about him that can find me anywhere I go, and I can't escape his sight for very long. Though I hate him like nothing else.

She sat up and straightened her kimono. He held her close from behind, breathing in her unique scent. He'd never smelled a woman like her, like all of nature at its freshest, along with something else he couldn't identify. He breathed deep, feeling like he had a portion of heaven right under his nose. She smiled and stood, as he did the same, and they walked to his favorite perch, which overlooked the village. He jumped up and sat on one of the lower limbs. She followed, settling down next to him.

He smiled and asked, "Freya, you have a worried scent about you, what's wrong?"

She sighed. "Dogs can smell fear, and you're just the same. There is something I'm worried about, and it's concerning you."

He blinked. "What could you possibly worry about me? What can go against me, when I've proved to you time and again that I can defeat anything?"

She shook her head. "This time, I'm worried about one of my fellow gods coming and killing you."

"Whatever, like some pushover god can defeat me."

"You have to listen. He isn't just any ordinary god. He's one of the most powerful gods in the heavens. Even I would have a hard time defeating him, let alone you, who can't land a hit on me."

He scowled. "If I tried hard enough, I could."

"It wouldn't matter how long you trained, you're still mortal, Inuyasha. This god would make you into a scorch mark on the ground in less than a second, if you rubbed him the wrong way. And once he sees you, he will be ticked off."

"He sounds like fun. I haven't had a good challenge in a long time."

She hit him over the head. "Idiot! Aren't you listening? You have absolutely no chance against him. You try, and you're going to be the first hanyou torch."

"Of course I'm listening. I just want a piece of him." A/N: Inuyasha always seems to be this way, wanting to challenge anyone who gets in his way, proving he's the strongest. At least, that's what the vibe I get from him.

"If he comes, then you're staying as far away as possible from him, or behind me."

"Why?"

"He won't hurt me. I know that of a surety."

His eyes narrowed. "Why won't he hurt you to get to me?"

"He has the largest crush on me ever. He wants to marry me and have me bear his children. The whole time I've been gone, he's followed me around like a puppy, the pervert. He's so annoying. I can beat him black and blue, and he still doesn't get that I don't like him." A/N: Sesshomaru's face with the Miroku mark on it. I wonder what that would look like. You know, the red hand mark whenever Sango smacks Miroku for being a pervert? That's actually called the Miroku mark now. No lie.

"So that's why you know for sure that he'll want to kill me the moment he sees me."

"Yes. I didn't want him to find me, but it doesn't matter, he seems to find me anywhere I go. It's only a matter of time before he comes and attempts to wreak havoc on you. But as long as I insist on protecting you, he can't do anything."

"As long as you're around, it's a stalemate, more or less."

"I just hope that he'll finally get that my heart is already taken by someone. I can only hope."

Of course we all know what's gonna happen next, the tension's killing me!
