Looking upon what appeared to be an old rusty sword at his feet, Seshoumaru's eyes widened at the stupidity of his half brother. What could cause him to freely hand over his father's most prized fang? Seshoumaru had already learned that the sword would not transform for him, so accepting this offer in exchange for help would inevitably be way too much effort for a sword that would sear his flesh when he gripped its handle.

Silently standing, Seshoumaru motioned Rin to collect their things. A tall, dark haired girl quickly gathered numerous objects and placed them in a small bag. Rin had grown into a beautiful young woman. She had eyes that seemed to glow in the dark and her face appeared pleasant even in the gloom.

Shifting his gaze from his Rin, Seshoumaru let his eyes settle on a lump on the ground that was his pathetic half brother.

"This is not worth my effort Inuyasha."

Kicking Tetutsaiga to Inuyasha, Seshoumaru turned around and faded into darkness with Rin.

"Seshoumaru-sama?"

Rin grabbed onto his white silk haori trying to get him to shorten his stride.

"What is it Rin?"

Seshoumaru slowed and pulled his mass of white hair out of his face so that he had a clear view of her form.

"You really won't help Inuyasha? I have never seen him like that before."

Starring at Rin's worried face; Seshoumaru didn't quite know how to answer her. She had made him too soft over the years and she had this annoying way of making him do things that he normally wouldn't bother with. He had come to love her over the years, but he would rarely show it because it was hard to admit to himself that there was somebody that existed that he considered more important than himself. If only she knew that she had changed his life in so many ways; she had given him a reason to live for and a life to fight for.

"Are you saying that you object to my decision?"

"Well, what if something's wrong with Kagome? You know, Inuyasha has helped me in the past…"

Twirling her hair around her pointer finger, Rin let her eyes trace the plants on the ground. She had never seen Inuyasha in such a mess; he actually gave up Tetutsaiga. That had to mean that something was wrong with Kagome. If Seshoumaru wouldn't help then she would see if there was anything she could do and then catch up with Seshoumaru later.

Seshoumaru continued to stare at Rin without answering. He knew that she had made up her mind that they would help Inuyasha, keeping silent was his only defense against her pleading eyes.

"Seshoumaru-sama? I understand that you and Inuyasha don't get along and that you constantly promise each other death. But neither one of you have ever gone through with such a threat, that has to mean something. You don't have to like him, but I do think it is your duty to help him. If you don't wish to see what's wrong I will go and see what I can do."

Crossing her arms over her chest, she gazed directly into his sharp golden eyes. Most people would shiver at the sight of his stare, but Rin could be comfortable no where else. She loved him and would do anything for that stubborn, big headed youkai.

Seshoumaru leaned in close to Rin's body; he had to see the determined glint in her eye before he would do what she wanted. Cupping her cheek in his hand, Seshoumaru tilted her face towards his own.

"You realize that this will put you in danger. Are you prepared to fight for what you believe in? I refuse to lose you and you know if you let yourself die that I will follow you into the afterlife to scold you."

Wrapping his hand in her hair, he pulled her forehead to his lips. This situation was bound to be dangerous; it always was when it came to Inuyasha. Rin was the last thing he had left close to him. He had lost Jaken and Aun in the final battle with Naraku; Rin had barely survived. This would probably be no different.

Releasing the air from her lungs, Rin tried to control her stampeding heart. Seshoumaru always made her a little nervous when he started getting mushy, the last thing she wanted to do was die and his mood swings did mean definite danger.

"Does that mean that you will go with me? If so, may I have the katana and the rikosoma?"

"Do you think you are ready to use the rikosoma in battle?"

The rikosoma was a blade that was wound in a whip like fashion that would uncurl in battle and could slay numerous people in one swipe. It would flow around it's user like a ribbon that danced in the wind. The wielder needed to know precisely what they were doing or they could easily slice off their own head. Rin had mastered its use in practice, but battle was much different than straw dummies.

"I am quite good at it in practice! I should be fine in battle, if we even see battle."

Taking her weapons out of their hiding places on his body, Seshoumaru delicately attached the katana to her back and the rikosoma to her hip.

"Don't think this will be easy Rin, I have sensed danger recently and I have a feeling that it has something to do with why Inuyasha is here. We will find a battle, maybe even numerous battles."

"Alright! Lets go see who's butt we need to kick for Inuyasha!"

Running back in the direction they came from, Rin headed into darkness. Shaking his head, Seshoumaru blindly followed the human girl who had him wrapped around her little finger.

Inuyasha didn't know what to do and his last option just got up and walked away. It had been over a week since Sanorai had taken Kagome from him and he hadn't gotten any closer to finding her. Inuyasha hoped that Kagome had not bonded with Sanorai; she might have agreed if she thought it would help her to escape.

Inuyasha had found where Sanorai's castle was located, but there was no way to reach it because it was in the sky and surrounded by a barrier that Tetutsaiga couldn't break. He was going to see if Seshoumaru would try to break the barrier for him but it didn't seem like Seshoumaru was too keen on helping his hanyou brother. Inuyasha had made it to the castle on Kirara's back, but while trying to breach the barrier he and Kirara were thrown back every time Tetutsaiga would come in contact with its thick magic.

Sango, Miroku, and the others went back to Kaede to see if she had found anything out that could help him. He was becoming more desperate by the day. His heart ached at the thought of his Kagome bonding to someone other than himself.

Snapping out of his thoughts at the sound of a twig breaking, Inuyasha pointed his nose into the air. A foul smell followed by an evil aura overwhelmed his senses.

"I know you're there! Come out of hiding!"

Inuyasha scanned his surroundings and the only things visible were trees, shrubs, and darkness. There was no mistaking that the foul smell that permeated the air was there though. Someone or something was hidden behind darkness.

"Do I have to come to you!?"

Inuyasha pushed himself from his knees to his feet while grabbing Tetutsaiga. As much as he was down trodden from not finding Kagome, he refused to give up until he found her and knew that she was at least safe. No smelly youkai was going to finish him off while he was having a pity party.

Suddenly, two red glowing orbs appeared in the black of night.

"Ahhh so you will come out to play!"

Transforming Tetutsiaga into its full form, Inuyasha took defensive position. He still didn't know what type of youkai he was about to face and what its special abilities might be.

"Our time has come…." Hissed a low scratchy voice.

"Yea, and it's about to be over! Come taste my blade demon!" Inuyasha growled towards the pair of glowing eyes.

"Don't be so brash hanyou, you can't kill what is already dead." The creature's voice sounded like two rocks being rubbed together.

As it scuttled towards Inuyasha, its form became more visible. His shoulder drooped forward when it walked causing him to slightly limp. His skin was a sickly pale color and the circles around his eyes covered his entire face.

Inuyasha held his breath on and off trying not to breath in the sickly scent of death.

"I have never seen a youkai like you before, what type of creature are you….."

Inuyasha couldn't quite figure out why such a being even existed. Although there were a few youkai and people that he questioned their creation.

"I am no youkai. We are death and we have come from a home a little too hot for our liking. Earth will do nicely. Your time is over half-demon, along with all living creatures."

Smirking at Inuyasha, the creature stood a little taller trying to display dominance.

"What do you mean 'We' ugly? As far as I can tell there is only you."

Inuyasha quickly raised Tetutsaiga in the air and brought it down on the creatures head, slicing it in half. Opening his eyes wide with shock, Inuyasha noticed that there was no blood. Before Inuyasha had a chance to even blink, the creature from Hell began to melt back together. Every piece of muscle, skin, bone, and ligament began to reattach before Inuyasha's eyes.

"What the fuck!? What are you?"

Waiting for the demon's facial features to realign, Inuyasha placed Tetutsaiga on his shoulder in a defensive position.

"Did you think you could kill me? Do you not listen half-witt, you can not kill what is already dead. And I am not the only one who has come searching for something better than eternal damnation."

"I have faced demons that refuse to die before. You just need a hard push back to the afterlife."

Opening his hand, Inuyasha flashed his claws in the moon light.

"Don't be stupid, the creatures of Earth will never win."

Smiling, the ugly creature let his cracked and broken molded teeth protrude over his bottom lip.

Coming back to his senses, Inuyasha began to think about Kagome again. He really didn't have much time to spend playing around with something that he didn't quite know how to kill yet. Kagome has either already been forced to bond with Sanorai or she is holding out waiting for Inuyasha. He couldn't bear the thought to let her down and let her live a life in a prison.

"It's your lucky day asshole. I have other things to do right now that are more important than playing with you."

"Ahh I heard from Him that there was more than one person searching for her, but I didn't know that he would be a half-demon."

Inuyasha quirked an eyebrow, how did this thing know he was looking for Kagome.

"How can you be so sure that I am looking for a woman?" Inuyasha asked menacingly.

Laughing loudly, the creature started to melt into the darkness. "You will be too late, she is the key, and we will kill her before she has the chance to jeopardize our time on Earth."

Sitting in a chair by her bedroom window that Kagome thought was a little too elegant for her taste; she sighed and gazed out the window. She had been stuck in this place for more than a week now. She had spent most of her time reading the book of prophecy and trying to avoid Sanorai. After the elaborate bonding ceremony she had felt awkward and guilty. Kagome's whole being felt different, not to mention that her appearance was slowly changing. Sanorai had told her that she was turning into a creature of the sky like he and his family.

She had a constant itch between her shoulder blades and every morning she would notice the nubs growing out of her back sprouting feathers. Her feathers turned more of a gold color rather than the silver like Sanorai. A mark curled around her eye, starting from her forehead and working its way down the right side of her cheek exploding into small curls. Sanorai said that this was the mark of two strong people bonding and that it gave her character. What a bunch of shit! It looked like she tattooed her face.

Kagome sighed and let her chin fall into her hands. Her whole life had changed down to the detail. All she could think about was Inuyasha and how much she had missed his abrasiveness and how when he smiled the light in his eyes could cause her heart to float. Now things had changed. She didn't know if he would ever really find her and if he did what he would think about her knew appearance. As if her life wasn't already traumatizing. What would her mom say about her daughter growing wings if she ever made it home? Or was that just a lost hope…….

Thinking back to the bonding ceremony, Kagome's eyes filled with water. She was trying to be strong, but everything that had happened was too much for just one week.

Trying not to sob, she sat up a bit straighter and let her mind go over the details over and over, like she had done for a few days now.

Kagome hadn't been too nervous when Sanorai spoke of them becoming stronger by their bond until she walked into his bed chambers. There were lit candles on every ledge and candles making designs on the floor. In the center of the room there was a circle formed with glowing stones and a long dagger sitting in its center. Catching her breath in her throat, Kagome had distinctly remembered Sanorai telling her that it wouldn't hurt when they did this but the dagger didn't look painless.

Sanorai had let his chest be bare and his wings free, which this in itself always made Kagome uncomfortable. Leading her to the circle Sanorai motioned for her to sit on the opposite side of him. Kagome was a little too nervous to talk, but she continued to let her eyes wonder around his sleeping quarters. He had several windows and his bed was massive and covered with red satin sheets and lavish pillows. Carpets covered every stone of floor and paintings hung on every wall. Sanorai was one who did not go without it appeared.

"Kagome, my love, my soul mate, my partner in this life and the next, it is time for us to join our powers."

Kagome glared in his direction. Love!? Soul mate!? Partner? What the hell was he talking about? She loved Inuyasha, not Sanorai!

"Wait, what are you talking about Sanorai?"

"Kagome we are meant to be together and in time you will love me the way I love you. But right now it is your duty to the life on Earth for you to do this. The only way we will save the world is if we are strong enough to beat the damned of Hell. Please just repeat after me, I promise you will be fine and we will figure everything out after we defeat evil. Don't let the world die because you are being selfish."

Kagome could feel the heat creeping up her body. How dare he tell her that she was being selfish! This was her life the he was fucking up and he had the nerve to put all life on her shoulders! What a bastard!

Trying to calm herself down, Kagome breathed in through her nose and out through her mouth like her mother had taught her so long ago when she would throw temper tantrums. She knew that she had to help the save the world, but why did it have to be at the cost of her freedom? Some how she would figure out a way to escape Sanorai and return to her friends and the real man she loved.

"Kagome, are you ready to repeat after me and do your duty to mankind? Please know that I will protect you and love you always. I am doing these things for your own good."

Kagome let her droop; she really didn't want to be the cause of the end of the world. How would she be able to live with herself if she knew she could have done something to help and refused?

"Fine, lets get this over with."

"Good, repeat after me: I, Kagome freely give my powers to my partner Sanorai and willingly take his powers from him to intertwine our magic's together thus making us stronger."

Sanorai waited for Kagome to repeat this sentence exactly and then continued.

"By binding our powers, we also bind our lives and souls. Our destinies share the same path and our hearts are imprinted on each other's soul."

Sanorai paused and picked up the dagger with his right hand. Placing the point on the skin above his heart, he pressed down hard enough for blood to drip down his chest. Kagome's eyes opened in shock when she saw him carving the Christian cross over his chest; he must be an angel.

"Kagome, I bond to you and together we will achieve greatness."

Pointing the dagger over Kagome's heart, Kagome closed her eyes to prepare herself for the pain of a dagger ripping her flesh. Much to her surprise, all she felt was a slight tingle as he carved the cross over her heart. Blood dripped down her dress staining the silk and her breasts.

"Repeat after me Kagome: Sanorai, I bond to you and together we will achieve greatness."

The second her voice finished the last word a blinding light struck the center of the circle and both heads were blown back in a daze. Trying to gather her bearings, Kagome rubbed her eyes to try and stop seeing spots. Her whole body ached from the searing sensation that overwhelmed her being when she was struck with the light. Lying back, she felt around to find a place to lay her head where it would be on a candle or stone.

For a second she felt weightless and she could have sworn that she had died. That must be what it feels like when your soul ascends to heaven. But when peeling her eyes open, she saw long white hair. Could be it be Inuyasha? Seeing the light in his golden eyes, Kagome's heart felt light. He had finally found her.

Melting into his embrace, she rolled her fingers through his hair while taking in his being.

"Everything will be okay Kagome."

Kagome was too stunned to find her voice; she should have known that he would find her.

Pulling her head to his face, Inuyasha covered her lips with his own. Melting into his kiss, Kagome massaged his tongue with her own and nearly cried from happiness. She felt something soft beneath and she let herself relax in the arms of her love.

Inuyasha kissed her entire body taking in the taste of her vanilla skin. Heat crept between her legs and she wanted him to ease the tension that had built in her lower abdomen. Letting him pull the straps off her dress and expose her breasts, she moaned with pleasure as his mouth covered her nipple. She let him pull the dress all the way off exposing her naked body. But Kagome didn't mind, she had always loved Inuyasha and deep down she had always imagined this and dreamed about it.

Spreading her legs apart with his knee giving him access to her vagina, he licked his thumb and rubbed it against her clit.

Kagome's hips bucked at the sudden explosion that was sent through her entire body. Opening her legs wider, she wanted him to be inside her, all of him.

Scratching her fingers down his back, she pulled him over her and directed his penis into her body. Clenching at the feel of him sliding in and out, she could barely contain herself. She had never had sex before and this was more intense than she had imagined.

Lifting one of her legs over her head, he pushed deeper into her, enjoying the moans that escaped her lips. Grabbing her hip bones, he pulled her forward and pushed her back while sucking on one of her nipples. Feeling her shiver under his body caused him to become harder and want to go deeper.

Pulling out, he pushed her legs a little farther apart, leaning down he let his tongue caress her vagina as his thumb rubbed circles around her clit. Bucking her hips only caused him to want to do more and more until she felt such pleasure that she would never forget. After tasting her insides, he flipped her over and guided her hips over his penis.

Pulling her back and forth, her vagina caressed his penis as he humped her moaning body. Caressing her breasts, he felt her tighten and let out a low moan signifying she had come. Panting she dug her face into her hands.

Pulling her waist a little harder, his movement became faster and harder. Grabbing her hair, he pulled her face towards him giving him access to her neck. Letting out a loud moan, he let himself explode inside her. Slowing down his movements, he carefully pulled out and wrapped his arms around her.

Kagome was exhausted and in complete bliss. Inuyasha had finally come to save her and gave her a night full of passion instead of pain.

Snapping out of her revere Kagome wiped the tears from her eyes. The next morning she had woken up next to Sanorai. Her heart ripped from her chest when she found that she had made love to a man that she could never have the heart to love thinking that it was Inuyasha.

Inuyasha would never want her now when he found out what she had done.

Looking back out the window, she wished for a world that was not surrounded by stone and a life with Inuyasha. But that dream was lost; her duty was to stand beside Sanorai and save the world. Maybe when her duty was over, she could finally die so she could forget the pain this world had brought her.
