"Hitaro-san those men will come back for you will they not?" Kagome asked the next morning as she fixed them all something to eat.
"Yes unless they think that you killed us," he said taking the bowl she offered, watching as she served the children.
"Would you consider traveling west with us, I'm sure my friend would mind a few more guests, he owes me anyhow" Kagome said smiling at him.
"I believe that would be a wise option." He said smiling back at her.
"Hitaro-san, do you mind me asking why they were after you?" Kagome asked as she began packing up the camp.
"As you can probably tell I am a fire apparition. My mate is one of them, an ice maiden. I do not know how much you know of youkia traditions but there is this rule that forbids the mating of two opposites, like fire and ice, cat and dog because they can either not have children or their children's powers will fight each other constantly and they are hard to control."
"So you broke this rule"
"And produced a child, Hiei is considered a forbidden child because of his powers." Hitaro said softly. "Sadly Yukina is not my daughter, but she is Hiei's sister, when they chased me away they forced my mate to take another man, he is Yukina's father and the top general in their army."
"So he will stop at nothing to get the child he doesn't want simply because she is his" Kagome said knowingly.
"You seem like you understand this concept well"
"I have seen men do horrible things to reclaim someone they thought of as theirs. People should not be possessions," Kagome said sadly looking at him. "I know from experience the tragedies that come with that."
"You have seen much young miko yet you remain pure" He said smiling "I can respect you for that"
"We should head out soon," Kagome said as she packed up the camp. She picked up a sleeping Shippo who curled up on her shoulder and then took the infant from Hitaro's arms so that he could carry his son.
"Kagome-san, who are we going to see."
"Sesshomaru, he's a friend of mine whom I see as a brother, he usually knows what to do when I'm in a situation like this" Kagome said sighing.
"Do you mind if I ask what has happened?"
"The man I thought I loved has mated the undead corpse of his first love and now she controls him, he has killed my friends and was after my soul because she thinks she will live again if she has it." Kagome said sadly.
"I am sorry for your loss."
"There was a time I was sorry to but I have learned that dwelling on such things isn't always your smartest option" Kagome said smiling at him "I have many enemies who would use that against me."
"You are wise as well. How much longer will this journey be"
"We are about an hour away now. I waited to leave when we were closer to the castle. Apparently my incarnation cant sense the jewel he is after any longer" Kagome said smiling. They continued the last hour shifting between comfortable silence and small conversation.
"LADY KAGOME YOU'VE RETURNED" a little brown haired girl screamed as she ran towards Kagome enveloping her legs in a hug.
"Hello Rin-chan is Sesshomaru around" Kagome asked smiling at the little girl who nodded and led them further into the castle.
"Imôto what brings you here" The tall silver haired demon asked as she walked into the study. She smiled sadly at him.
"One does not stick around after learning of the plans to end her life, ani that would not be the smartest course of action" Kagome said smiling at the demon.
"I would assume so now who have you brought with you this time" He asked sighing.
"This is Hitaro-san and his children Hiei and Yukina" Kagome said smiling "Hitaro-san this is Lord Sesshomaru, my older brother"
"It is a pleasure My Lord" He said bowing. Sesshomaru stood and nodded.
"If you are a friend of Kagome's you are welcome here. Kami knows she has many friends" He said smirking at her "How long will you be staying this time Imôto"
"I am unsure ani, at least until I am sure he has given up for now" Kagome said sadly.
"Very well, in a week's time I will be able to accompany you on your quest" He said she smiled before leading Hitaro out of the study.
"You and your children can stay here if you wish. If Hiei wanted to play in the gardens with the children, he may, there are many children here." Kagome said smiling kindly.
"Thank you Kagome-san, this is very generous" Hitaro said smiling at her.
