Yay! Chapter 3!

Once in the Impala they speed off to the next victim's apartment building. Five minutes later they're pulling up outside and jumping out again, they run straight up to the roof this time. Bursting through the door right after the wife.

She looks at them as the door closes tears running down her face, "Please," she begs in a broken sob, "please help me."

Oiwa appears next to her with a dark look and grabs her arm leading her closer to the edge. Before Sam or Dean can get a good shot Kagome rushes forward. The boys watch almost as in slow motion as Kagome's hand starts glowing pink and she touches the spirit. At the exact moment that Kagome touches her Oiwa's face turns beautiful again and she smiles bringing her hands down to rest on her pregnant belly before she falls away like glitter.

The boys freeze, then finally turn to look at each other as Kagome begins consoling the woman. Taking the woman in her arms Kagome lets her cry against her while moving her back downstairs to her apartment.

Once in the apartment Kagome sits the woman down on the coach, "I'm going to make you some tea, is that okay?" seeing to woman nod she heads to the kitchen.

Sam stays in the living room as Dean follows Kagome, "What the hell happened up there? You touched that thing and the ugly bitch turned back into hotness and poofed away. And why was your hand glowing?!" he whispers while looking at her like she's crazy.

"I thought you thought I was hot, you know you may need to raise your standards a little bit more." She looks at him as she sets the kettle on the stove, "I told you, I'm a miko, I purified her spirit. It's kind of what I do."

"What does that mean, purified?"

"I sent her back to the other side, I showed her the light, however you want to say it. She won't be back again."

"So that's it, that's all you have to do, touch a spirit and they're gone?"

"Among other things yes, I send spirits to rest."

"What do you mean among other things?"

The kettle starts to whistle, Kagome pulls it off the stove and starts preparing the tea, "It's not exactly a conversation for here Dean, can we talk about this later, with Sam that way I don't have to tell it twice?"

He mumbles a "fine" as Kagome walks past him with the tea, handing it to the woman she sits across from her and explains that everything is over. After convincing the woman to have someone come over and stay with her they make their leave. Back in the Impala everyone stays quiet as Dean starts the car and heads down the road, he turns in at the first motel they come to and they get a room.

They're silent as they get in the room, everyone sits down, Kagome's about to start speaking as Castiel appears next to her. Both boys jump, Kagome just smiles and turns towards him.

"You have entirely too much fun with that." She stands back up.

"I wanted to see if it would affect you?" he stares at her.

She just smiles, "it hasn't before now, why would it start to?"

"It's been some time Kagome."

"So it has Castiel."

Dean stands, "Wait you mean you to know each other?!"

Just as he said that Castiel leans down and captures Kagome's lips, pulling her to him, he brings his hands to her waist as she brings hers to wrap around his neck. For the second time that night both Sam and Dean freeze and look at each other.

Finally Dean speak up, "Okay enough!" they pull apart as he continues, "The both of you better start explaining soon or someone's getting hurt."

Kagome smiles, "it's okay Chichi, I'm not going to steal your man." Her smile gets bigger as he mutters a few choice words. "Although I do have to say, I believe this is the most assertive vessel I've ever seen you in."

Cas smirks, "I learned it from the pizza man."

"Oh my God! Really Cas!" Dean just runs his hands over his face.

Kagome rolls her eyes, "bases solely on their reactions, that should have an interesting story, but before you start that I have mine to tell. Dean, Castiel, please sit down." With that she tells them her past, how she traveled all over past Japan in search of the jewel shards. Dean didn't believe some of it but after some affirming from Cas he started to wrap his head around it. It was two in the morning when she finally wrapped up her tale.

"So any questions?"

"Yeah, actually" Dean looks at her and gives her a look, "Why did you tell me you weren't going to steal my man?"

All but Dean laugh, "Really, that was over four hours ago and your still going on about it?"

"Yes, and don't even get me started on the Chichi comment."

Cas looks at her, "I was going to ask about that myself."

"Chichi is his Chihuahua name." she smiles at the look on Dean's face, "And based solely on how mingled your auras are I assumed the two of you are extremely close."

"Just because we're close doesn't mean he's my boyfriend."

"I never said he was your boyfriend." She smiles wider, "now how about we get some shut eye? I don't need much sleep but I do need some."

Sam speaks up, "Wait you never explained how you to know each other."

Kagome grabs a pillow off the bed Dean is sitting on and drops it on the floor next to the desk, "in the morning, for now its bed time." As she lays down she hears Dean grumble about stolen pillows, "If you're not offering half of your bed then shut it Dean."
