I gots good news for you guys! I will be updating this story I think every weekend or so, okay? Also I will start working on the next Ai Youkai chapter as soon as I finish posting this one. Hee Hee! XD
Last time… Kagome closed her eyes and took in a deep breath and opened them with a new determination. With the potion in hand she stood before her business partner. "I ,Kagome Higurashi, accept the title Lady of the Western Lands!"

She held her breath as she gulped down the dreadful stuff. It tasted like onions mixed with chocolate milk.. And trust me when I say, disgusting! Sesshomaru's smirk disappeared as anticipation took over his being. Kagome finished off the last drop and tossed the bottle to the side. Her eyes became dull and she swayed back and forth trying to keep her balance. She felt a little… queasy. Sesshomaru caught her as she passed out. Her skin grew pale and she became hot with fever.
"The potion was not supposed to take affect yet. Shimata! When I get my hands on that witch I'm going to make it so she feels she was never born!" he growled lowly as he went to gather their belongings. He wrapped his tail around her to keep her steady and warm as he leapt into the night sky. The wind brushed across their faces chilling the skin with its touch. Kagome squirmed and positioned herself cuddled in his chest… er… armor. Sweat covered her forehead. Sesshomaru brought his hand up to her face and lightly placed it upon her cheek.
"Hn… Her fever has gotten worse." he mumbled to himself. 'Master… We must find shelter for mate.' Do not order this Sesshomaru. I am well aware of our position. 'She is human still. She will not survive if her fever gets much higher.' I know! I know…
He quickened his pace and flew towards the western lands. Once he got there he could have the healers help her.

He had arrived. He jumped over the gate wall not having time to wait for them to open it.
He landed before the general who greeted him.
"Welcome back milord. We have received word from the Eastern Lord requesting your presence first thing in the morning." he said bowing before his savior.
"Tell him if he wishes to speak to me to come here. I have more pressing matters to deal with."
"Excuse me, milord. May I ask what matters you will be attending to?" he asked with a confused look upon his face.
Sesshomaru looked around impatiently for a servant to help him with the girl in his arms that still remained unseen for the time being. Where were they anyways? Having run out of patience he turned to the next best thing, the general.
"General Chou I will answer your questions if you will help me with my fiancé." he said coolly.
Chou's mouth dropped to the floor. Had he heard that right? Did his lord just say fiancé?
He nodded his head a bit too enthusiastically for Sesshomaru's liking but none the less he ordered him to have the healer ready for his new mate to be by the time he arrived there which would be.. Thirty seconds starting….. Now!
Chou dashed off before his lord knowing that if he didn't want to get killed by the Eastern lord he would have to get answers from his Master and some very good ones at that. He arrived three seconds before Sesshomaru. Just enough to have the healer ready.
Sesshomaru walked in head held high and worry clearly visible on his face.
"Please place the girl on the healing table." the nurse asked.
Sesshomaru nodded his head and did as he was asked of without complaint.
"Who is the girl?" the old healer asked eagerly, her red eyes shining with joy.
."She is the Shikon Miko, Kagome. I gave her a potion to turn her demon after she agreed to be my mate but…"
"You tried to turn a Miko into a Demon!? Are you stupid boy!? In all my years I have to say that this is the stupidest thing you've done besides getting your arm cut off…" the old woman trailed off.
Sesshomaru growled and cracked hi knuckles.
"Don't you growl at me young man! What would your father say if had heard you didn't respect your elderly grandmother?" she asked fake pouting.
"Hmph! Just hurry and heal her."
She put some strange looking herbs in a bowl and crushed them until they were juicy and looked at the Taiyoukai before her with dulled eyes.
"Sesshomaru… If you want to heal this girl I am going to need some of your blood or that of one stronger than you in this remedy." she stated dully.
"Why?" he asked confused.
"She was given a potion to turn her into a demon but her Miko blood is fighting against it. In order to survive the miko blood will either have to kill the potion or the demon blood will have to overpower the miko blood. There is a catch though… If we use your blood you will not be able to mate her for she will be considered your daughter. Do you understand?" she asked humbly.
Sesshomaru nodded and headed to the door.
"Where are you going?" Chou asked.
"To the Eastern Lands… If anyone is more powerful than me it is Taio. I will ask him for some of his blood and if he refuses then I will take it by force. And you're coming with me!" he ordered as he dashed out the room in a blue blur.
"I would listen to him if I were you.." sang the old lady.
"I have no choice now do I?" Chou snarled back angrily and followed after his Lord.

Sesshomaru flew to the East as fast as he could. His silver hair shining in the moon light. Only four hours ago he had made a deal with a miko and now she was dieing and he had to heal her now. Oh life was oh so complicated. He could see the Eastern Palace not to far off. He would be there in a matter of minutes and demand blood for his mate to be from a demon who could kill him with probable ease. Oh yeah, life couldn't get any better than this.
A few miles behind him General Chou followed. He was tired and warn out from traveling so far so fast. If they had went by foot they would have taken three days minimum. But seeing as it is Sesshomaru's mate to be's life on the line they just had to travel hundreds of miles in twenty minutes. It was a miracle his lord did not pass out from using all his demonic energy with his floating demon cloud thing.
Sesshomaru had finally reached his destination and was greeted by the jolly Eastern lord and his tiny mate. His feathery orange hair acting like a homing beacon to the inu youkai. He dropped from the sky and landed gracefully before the couple and bowed.
"So you got the message, huh? Well I didn't actually think that you'd come but it sure is great that you did! So let's get down to business-" he started.
"I am not here for your reasons. I have come seeking your help." Sesshomaru cut in.
Taio raised his eyebrows in question and nodded his head acknowledging his need for help.
"I.. I gave the Shikon Miko a potion to become demon after… after…"
"Spit it out son!" the Lord said impatiently.
"Igaveherapotiontobecomedemonaftersheagreedtobemymate." he mumbled under his breath.
"Okay.. Now how about slower this time?" he asked with a sigh.
"I gave her a potion to become demon after she agreed to be my mate… But now her miko blood is fighting with the potion and if we don't give her the blood of a strong demon to overpower her miko blood she will… die." he said head hung.
The eastern lord laughed and slapped him on the back sending him flying forward into a tree.
"Woops.."
He heard a low and angry growl coming from the inu demon and giggled lightly to his mate. She rolled her eyes and went to help him up.
"Anata you really should watch your own strength. You could really hurt somebody one day." she scolded. She grabbed Sesshomaru's hand and helped him up. Now it was Taio's turn to growl.
"Oh shut up you big oaf! He's not doing anything to me." she laughed as she headed back to her mate.
"So Sesshomaru what you're asking of us is Taio-kun's blood right? But what I want to know is why can't you use your own blood?" she asked curiously.
Sesshomaru sighed and answered the question dully. Earning a few nods and 'oh's from the slightly older couple.
"So if Taio-kun gives her our blood she will be our daughter?"
He nodded and sighed.
"Okay we'll do it!" she cried happily. Both Taio and Sesshomaru jumped at the unexpected cry. Taio raised his eyebrows and looked at his mate questioningly.
"What? You said it yourself that if Taio-kun and I gave her our blood then she would become our child. I have waited three centuries to have a kid and I'm not getting any younger. We're doing it and that's final." she said with a stern face, probably directed at her mate.
Taio gave a sigh and agreed knowing he could not go against his mate. "Hai, Sesshomaru-sama we will do it." "Very well, we leave now." he said and left once again into the sky followed by the couple.
This had better work. Mate will be safe. I hope so…For all our sakes. Hn.
