Okay I have made so many spelling mistakes it so not funny, and I just figured out that I may have put chapter one in to early cause I don't think you'll get it for those of u who need the story told to you send me a message. Chapter four, I hope is better than my previous chapters.

Chapter Four: Conditions

Somehow I knew he caught me, but I really wish I he would let me fall so I wouldn't have to bare to feel this pain. Why? What did I do to deserve this; I just wanted to hate him for all that he's put me through. I was going to have to move. I had to start a whole new identity and finish high school somewhere else. I wonder if the weather is good in Europe. I have a better idea I'll kick his ass and send him to Antarctica.

My mind was alert and my sense's were slowly coming back but I made no attempt to awaken, or try to move my body. I could hear students surround me but there voices were an echo as the asked about my well being; I could also hear Shadow giving them his reassurance that I was perfectly fine and just had a small fainting spell. I felt his large arms wrap around my small slender body and scope me up off the ground, ( we'll I wasn't technically on the ground since Shadow managed to catch me in his lap , talk about quick reflexes. ). I groaned and heard everyone gasp. Shadow pulled me close to him as he started to carry me out of the curious teenage eyes that worried about my safety. His arms shifted my weight till he managed to awkwardly whisper in my ear, "I'll take you away from your human life for awhile." I didn't move but I was sure if I had an expression on my face it would be a scrawl or shocked gaping mouth. I hope it was the first cause I wouldn't like to have flies in my mouth. I heard they don't taste so good.

We must have been outside because my senses were more alert when I smelt rain and pine tree's, It didn't smell bad it just made me curious to why we would go outside if it were about to rain, I knew he could smell it to. Truth was I loved the rain a lot, it was calming and made me feel human and free, but the feel of the wind on my skin made me as if my problems had just been blown away. The motion under me had stopped and I decided it was time to wake up before he ran away with me; I was half expecting him to have abandoned me by now, like he always has. It shocked me, I was totally surprised. Here he was sitting at the base of a tree with me in his arms; he looked at me as if he were trying to understand a very difficult question.

"Kagome……" he whispered my name again, and again it sent a wave of pain to my heart, was he doing this just to kill me inside again. I couldn't take this pain twice it was to soon.

"Shadow, please leave….and don't ever come back." I said the words knowing they were empty and I so untrue. He looked at me, his eyes sad and unwilling to give up. The first drop of rain fell from the sky and landed upon his cheek; by instinct I wiped it away. He grabbed my hand and kept it were it was, his stare was intense and sent buried away feelings go wild as if they were never absent in the fist place. The rain fell hard soaking both of us; at least I didn't have to worry about catching a cold. His eyes wondered up and down my body examining it as if he were worried I had changed in some way; I was sure he spotted my red bra through my light white colored.

"I'm not leaving you, not anymore. I'm here for you weather you like it or not, your not getting rid of me that easily." At that moment I did the only thing I never allowed myself to do while I was around him, I was hoping; I wanted his words to be true. Shadow stared at me reading the hesitation on my face; his fingers brushed against my cheek tucking the lose strands of hair behind my ear. "Kagome." He whispered before catching my lips in a heart melting kiss.

The rain fell but his lips faded out my surroundings, his lips were like fire upon my skin leaving hot kisses everywhere he could; it was like I was in a drunken haze and nothing made sense. His hands traveled down my body while he nipped and tucked at my neck. This feeling was so familiar and unbelievable it sent my insides on a crazy surge of desire. His hands found my thigh while the other supported my weight keeping me on his lap; his hand slowly creping his way up my skirt till I could feel his hand brush up against the elastic waist line of my panties. No. This wasn't right; it wasn't supposed to happen this way. My lips brushed against his neck; I could feel the urge to feed start to over come me, I hesitated for a moment before pushing him away.

What the hell had gotten into me, this morning I was declaring death to this very man and here I was kissing the damned. He leaves for fifty years and expects that I would continue on with him, he was sadly mistaken if he thought that I would for a second let him manipulate me in such away. I pulled myself from his lap as he stared at me in sure confusion and disappointment.

"I won't forgive you for what you did. There is no excuse you could possibly give me for taking my daughter away from me for so long. Where is she? Bring her back Shadow!" My voice cracked more and more with every word I spoke.

"Keilala is here with me, she's grown so much since you last saw her. She's beautiful; she's your splitting image. People would assume you were her twin." He smirked at his own thought. "You can see her under one condition." He looked at me totally serious now.

"What condition?" I asked now a little curious. He smiled at my expression and I instantly regretted my curiosity.

"Keilala need her mother around to explain her changes, she needs to know everything before she finds out on her own what she is and who she is. Kagome you can't run away from your past forever." He said in a lecturing voice. He was right I hated to admit it, but he was right.

I contemplated this for a second before speaking. "So you want me to explain what she is, that's it?" I asked feeling a little uneasy. If there was one thing that I hated, it was being told what to do or how to do something.

"Oh, I forgot to mention another thing." He said as a devilishly wide smirk graced his lips. "You have to move in with Keilala and me at our place in Kinari." He smiled as if he were oblivious to my impounding anger.

"You're crazy if you think that's ever going to happen." I spoke through clenched teeth.

"Is that so?" He said as he stared off at something crawling up tree a few feet away from us. "It's your choice Kagome, either you come with me to Kinari to be with your daughter or you stay here and be a normal want to be human." The last part he spoke made him smile to himself.

I thought a moment before really noticing there would be no harm done, and in time I would be able to convince Keilala that she should move in with me and I could finally have the time I never got to have with her, so why not put up with it for now? "I'll go in one condition."

"Ah, you can't work your way around of this, you have no say really kagome. We'll be leaving as soon as you got your things, I'll be by your house later." He said as if he knew I would say yes all along.

"Really shadow? Well I'll go no where until you consider my condition."

He finally gazed at me as if he were mentally wondering if this conversation would end sometime soon. "One condition, you have only one." He said in a warning voice.

I smiled I was getting my way today, about damn time. "Okay, I don't want to hide from the world. We have to try and blend in and be a semi human family."

"Semi human family?"

"Yup, we have to hunt we can't be completely human therefore we are semi human."

He nodded once. "Okay we have ourselves a deal. Now if we may relinquish this conversation, you have to go and pack." He said the last part more to himself than to me, and I could have sworn I saw a small smirk polish his lips for a moment.

I nodded once and with one last fleeting look I did a swift flash step through the woods hoping that the burst of speed would clear my head, but before I could even manage to imprison my thoughts of shadow and his dim-witted but rational plan I remembered I had to go back to school. I had no idea what I was going to do now, not only was I going to have to go back into class and confront my class mates (which I was dreading to do, I hope to god not all teenagers are as exasperating as the ones here). No way was I going in their, I'll just get my car.

~x~

I slowed down to a walk when I saw the break in the woods, and slowly maneuvered my way through the crowed of parked cars. Before I could even reach my car I realized my car keys were not with me, they were in my back pack………..inside the school.

"…….Damn just my luck." Now I had to think of an excuse to go into class explain my fainting spell and to top it all off, how I was moving away with our new student. I grumbled lightly to myself, I had three options.

Tell the class that shadow was my Ex-boyfriend who left me and ran away with my daughter over one hundred years ago and has now come back to get us to be a family. Oh yea and I'm a two hundred-fifty year old vampire who looks seventeen.

Have a teenage fit like they do on TV and run out of class screaming "No one understands me!" then start the water works like a rejected puppy.

Explain that I'm sick and need to get home to bed, and I'm moving away forever because I have swine flu.

"Ugh…..how do I expect anyone to believe my lies if I cant even believe them?" This was a hopeless cause. I sighed deeply before pressing my face against the glass of the driver's window of my car. Something shiny caught my attention from the corner of my eye, it was swaying back and forth to it own beat. I examined it closely it was a silver star, the same silver star that hung on my lavender colored back pack. I know it didn't fall off because it was on my bag when I got to my class this morning. The silver star is on my zipper of my bag so u would have noticed its absence, I looked upon the star in awe wondering how my bag must have gotten back in my car or even if my bag was or even left my car.

"Have you tried opening the door yet?" said a familiar monotone voice that only could belong to my older brother Arazuko. Technically zuko was my Step brother my father had remarried after his first wife before i was born or even before my dad met my mother but i heard it didnt last between zuko's mom and my dad she was ungreatful and stubborn and father banished her from his kingdom and my brother stayed in the castel and remained the only vampire prince to my father since he barried no other son, but zuko never cared for tittles and he wasn't even a vampire. In a way zuko was more of a family friend than a actually brother, I mean we grew up together before he decided to leave the kingdom in search of what he really was, he was my big bro and my best friend……scratch that best friend wouldn't apply to us cause he barely interacts with anyone and I'm not even sure if he think I'm his best friend. (Then again I wonder if he even really had friends that weren't scared of him to say, yea Arazuko is a real cool guy) no way would that happen. Then again zuko liked my sister Aigge and me but I wasn't even sure if he liked me, zuko was very hard to figure out and he never dose what you wouldn't expect. If you didn't know zuko like I did you would think he was a impassive, cold hearted, scary, emotionless, bad ass, but if you were smart you wouldn't say that out loud; but I knew zuko not as well as other would know there brothers and sisters since he kept everything to himself, but well enough.

I whirled around to face him, his blue eyes stared down at me and the trickles of rain drops fell from his inky black hair that was cropped short in the back while his bangs hung long and slightly covered his eyes. He wore a grey T-shirt with a black leather jacket that had way too many buckles and black jeans with shiny, shin high, black boots. Around his neck hung a silver chain that he kept tucked away in his shirt.

"What are you doing here?" I asked really curious.

"Shadow's here isn't he? What dose my brother want with you?" Zuko said as he stared up at the falling rain. I couldn't help but admire his beauty, his full lips, his pail skin and his blue eyes that always seemed to reflect crystal pools from the fountain of youth but when he stared up at the rain his eyes were like mirrors.

What the hell was i saying this is my brother i shouldn"t be thinking he's anywhere near hot he was also realted to shadow in a way; they were both from the same clan, but very different parts of the same clan. Zuko is a spirit demon he could posses anybody or destroy them in a blink of an eye but he's also part fire wolf, but no ones ever seen his wolf form before so we just assume he prefers to keep that a secret. Shadow is a fire elemental dog demon and a quarter human. Okay I thought they were the same type of demon to when I found out apparently they are two different kinds. Shadow can control most fires and change into the great white dog. While Zuko is a fire wolf he turns into a wolf that is created from the depths of hell so his fur is a faded brownish red is what is told in legends, and they are both the last of their kinds.

"Shadow is here…….he wants me to go back with him to Kinari."

"……..Kinari, and are you going?" he said the words like they were highly out of the ordinary. (Then again my family wasn't very ordinary)

I nodded once. "I do plan on going. Why is there something wrong with me going or something?" I asked wondering why Zuko was so mystified about my where abouts and since when he cared.

Arazuko looked away from me for a sec then turned his attention back to me dispassionately. "When do you plan on leaving?"

I raised an eye brow curiously at him. "Today, what's with all the questions? Why are you so worried if I'm going with Shadow?" I tried to ask more questions but Zuko had already vanished without a trace making it look like I had just had a conversation with a ghost or to myself. (I really hope it didn't look like I was having a conversation with myself, because there are places for people who do that…they get what I like to say a pretty white coat and shiny silver bracelets and all the morphine that's legal.)

I started missing Zuko and his presence that had given me a safe feeling. Why was he such an ass? I started up at the sky as the rain drenched my face, letting my thoughts take over. It was only a matter of time before I would see my daughter again. "Keilala, please forgive me for not getting to you sooner" in my mind I could see her, my little girl smiling and I was glad it was raining so that I could deny my tears. It was finally time to have her back.
