Disclaimer: I don't own any of Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho Characters but, the OC's are mine.
Author's note: This is my first fic so when you give a review of my story all that I ask is that you please be kind and gentle with me. I have been reading a lot of the stories on and love crossovers and especially the ones involving Kurama/Kagome, Youko/Kagome, Kuronue/Kagome and Seeshomaru/Kagome and many others. So, for my first fan fiction story I was inspired to write an Inuyasha and Yu Yu Hakusho Crossover which is entitled "A Beautiful Miko a Fox and the Meadow of Desire." This will be a Youko/Kagome and Kurama/Kagome pairing so just sit back and relax, and enjoy the story.
Summary: The battle with Naraku is finally over he was defeated and destroyed along with all of his incarnations and the Shikon on Tama is complete and Kagome has purified it; and yet once again Kagome and Inuyasha have gotten into another heated argument once again; because once again she has caught Inuyasha with the dead miko Kikiyo but unlike all of the other times this time in a very compromising position. Kagome is heartbroken, hurt, angry and completely betrayed and humiliated after she heard and saw Inuyasha in the forest holding Kikiyo\ he asked Kikiyo to be his mate, she saw them kissing and getting undressed and then saw Inuyasha pick up a very naked Kikiyo and lay her on the forest floor. Of course Kagome didn't stick around to watch what would happen next because 1 she felt like someone had just ripped her heart out and 2 by Inuyasha's actions it was plain to see that whatever future she wanted to have with him would never be, could never be and it was over because he never really loved her way that she loved him and Kikiyo always had Inuyasha's heart even though she had pinned him to the God Tree with her arrow. But don't grieve for Kagome because her destiny is about to be changed by a certain King of Thieves and Silver Sprit Fox (Kitsune) named Youko Kurama and an encounter at a hot springs and beautiful meadow full flowers and magic. Plus she finds out that she isn't really Kikiyo's reincarnation but, Midoriko's daughter instead; and on top of all that she finds out about her demon heritage and how she is the last of the Crystal Kitsune Clan; the foxes who controlled all of the elements.
VixenKitsune147 now presents the story A Beautiful Miko a Fox and the Meadow of Desire.
A Beautiful Miko a Fox and the Meadow of Desire
Chapter 6 Kagome's True Heritage, a Fiery Transformation and Youko's Big Surprise
(Part 4 Kagome's Painful Transformation, Youko's Intended Found and the Mystery of Kagome's True Heritage Revealed)
Chapter 6
Recap/Last Time:
Kagome's body begins to take on an ominous and eerie glow almost as if moonlight was shining upon it.
Youko's growling becomes even louder as he sees the light blue and silver flames surrounding Kagome's body which are now spiraling from her toes to the top of her head and as Kagome's screams increase the sound of the crackle of electricity can be heard.
"Midoriko, stop you're killing her!" Youko yells as his eyes go wide and look of sheer horror comes across his face.
Midoriko briefly glances over at Youko and says. "Now why would I kill or hurt my own daughter, Youko?
"Your daughter but, Kagome is a miko not a demoness; I don't understand, I'm confused." Youko said.
"Just stop your growling, Youko for all will become clear in a moment; just be patient and behold the one you've be searching for all of these years is about to appear." Midoriko said.
"Youko, help me make the pain stop! Please make the pain go away!" Kagome screamed and writhed in agony because of the transformation.
Youko all of a sudden makes a desperate lunge toward Kagome only to be met by a very strong barrier which knocks him backward into the hot springs again.
Midoriko just shook her head in disbelief and sighed at Youko and said I'm sorry about the barrier, Youko; "But, you will not and can not interfere because this must be done now." "The concealment spell and seal on her demonic power must be removed because her late father gave me specific instructions that when she turns 18 years of age this must take place for she has already turned 18.
Kagome's P.O.V.
I can't move and oh, kami whole my body feels like it's on fire from the inside out. This hurts so much and feels like there is both ice water and fire flowing in my veins. Am I going to die? Please, kami no don't let me die; not today not right now. I feel like I'm being ripped apart by hungry beasts.
Midoriko chants the last words in fact the only words that Youko or Kagome understood. Release concealment spell and demonic power seal crystal kitsune vixen now come fourth.
Author's P.O.V.
Suddenly Kagome's black raven hair turns a silvery platinum light bluish white and grew longer more shinier, softer and silkier. And her ears move from the side of her head to top and become fuzzy and pointed like Youko's. Her eyes that were once chocolate brown now became a beautiful ice blue hue. Her skin became a shade paler and the same kind of pink four pointed star mark that Midoriko had on her forehead appeared upon Kagome's forehead also; her body became more curvier and voluptuous and her C cup sized breasts blossomed to a DD cup. In addition she grew sharp fangs and her human nails became sharp deadly claws. And then out of the blue seven silky tails the same colors as her hair sprouted out from the base of her spine where it ends. Her enticing cherry blossom, vanilla and rose scent increased tenfold. The out of nowhere a white kimono with a black and silver obi appears on Kagome's body and she is no longer naked.
"Talking"
"Midoriko talking"
Youko's eyes were wide as he stared at the newly revealed crystal kitsune.
Youko's P.O.V.
Oh, Kami I can't believe that miko that I held, kissed, touched and gave a courting mark to a few moments ago was once the little vixen kit that Midoriko held in her arms all of those years ago. Kagome is the same vixen that I claimed as my intended on the day of her birth that spring the very first time I saw her. A/N: Silver kitsunes can recognize their true mate from the moment that they lay their eyes upon them and even from birth.
Midoriko removed the strong barrier and the flames began to dissipate. The glow stopped and Kagome fell from the sky toward the hot springs. By now Youko has gotten dressed in his white silk sleeveless haori and hakamas. Youko used his demonic speed and jumped up to catch her in his arms, and then landed safely in the meadow of flowers next to the hot spring near a sakura tree.
Youko's eyes took in the beautiful vixen that he now held in his arms. Kagome looked up at him with frightened ice blue eyes. "Don't worry I've got you, Kagome, my beautiful vixen and my angel." Youko said.
"Thank you, Youko." Kagome whispered.
"Youko, are you still upset with me now?" Midoriko asked as she looked at the two awestruck looks on both of the foxes faces.
"No, Midoriko. I'm not mad at all because you've returned her to me." Youko replied.
Midoriko sighed in relief as she sat down on a rock and rested for a moment because she was tired from breaking the demonic powers seal and the concealment spell. After that she regained her previous train of thought. She needed to finish telling Kagome the truth about her heritage, her father, Youko, and lastly what the meaning was behind her sudden disappearance from the feudal era all of those years ago.
"Midoriko, please tell how are you my mother when Kun Loon Higurashi raised me from a baby? And who's my real father and how did you meet my father and why am I a full-blooded crystal kitsune youkai? Moreover, who are the crystal kitsune and are there any of them left besides me? And why was my transformation so painful?" Kagome fired off the questions one after the other before being forced to take a breath.
"I will tell you everything you wish to know, little one." Midoriko said, "Let me start from the beginning."
Midoriko's story and flashback of Kagome's Past Heritage:
"I met your father who was a Crystal Kitsune and leader of the northern clan. It was after I had returned from my mission where I had to kill a bear demon that had been terrorizing a small village not too far from Edo. As I was walking through the forest I accidently tripped over the root of a tree and I would have surely had one very nasty fall, but all of the sudden out of nowhere a pair of the strongest arms that I've ever felt caught me before I could even make contact with the ground.
I heard a masculine baritone voice ask "are you alright, miko?" I looked up to see who my savior was. I was totally mesmerized by what I saw that day. I came face to face with a very handsome crystal kitsune, your father. He was dressed in a black haori and black hakamas with forest green trim and armor. A/N Think of Youko Kurama/s outfit and kouga's armor. Also, your father had a pair of the most beautiful ice blue eyes, so blue that you could nearly swim in them. He had muscles and abs to die for, and lastly his hair was long, nearly down to his butt and it was the prettiest slivery platinum light blue and it was soft and silky too.
In addition he had seven silky tails which made him one very powerful fox. I said nothing at first as the male kitsune stared down at me with a look of concern on his face. Suddenly, my fingers began twitching and then I reached up and began to rub his two fuzzy ears and he began to purr. Your father stopped me and asked me my name and I smiled and told him that my name was Midoriko. Then I asked him his name and he said his name was Shiro. From the day that I met your father, Shiro I knew that my life would never be the same. We started out as best friends, but gradually as we both got to know one another our feelings for each other grew stronger and we fell in love and after that we were both completely inseparable. Then one day as we both sat under a sakura tree together and your father held me in his arms he asked me if he could court me and I accepted and when he announced it to his clan all of them accepted me as one of their own.
During our courtship he gave me several presents and one of them was an azure blue jade necklace. Our courtship lasted for months and then he and I became mates. During our mating we exchanged powers. I got the power to control all of the elements and he got immunity from miko purification powers. Also, I gained some fox-like attributes which I will show you and Youko later after I finish telling the rest of this story. Well anyway, where was I, oh yes. Kagome your father was a brave warrior and he was loved greatly by the whole clan and you remind me a lot of him, and if he were alive he would be very proud of you. Your father's favorite food was oden, and he had a fierce temper like yours. He is where you get your kind heart and warriors blood from. He was so very happy when he found out that I was pregnant with you and you were born that very spring. When it was all over I held you in my arms and you were such a tiny little thing.
Now to answer your question, the crystal kitsune clan was a clan that lived high up in the northern mountains. They were known as the heavenly foxes, and they were said to be the descendants of the goddess Inari herself. Kagome I wish that I didn't have to tell you this but you are the only crystal kitsune that is left. The rest of them were killed when they were ambushed and attacked by a horde of hawk demons and these demons were brutal in their attack. You were only a few weeks old when they attacked your clan. The entire clan fought bravely that day. Some of the hawk demons were killed but not all of them and the ones that weren't killed rose up and slaughtered all of the males with the exception of your father, the females and all of the kits of the clan except for you, Kagome. I fought alongside the warriors of Shiro's Clan but in the end me, your father, and you escaped, and your father was mortally injured. We made it to a cave on the outskirts of the mountains to hide for safety. I knew that Shiro wouldn't make it through the night given his injuries. In his last hours that he spent with us he used the last of his energy and he sealed your demonic powers and abilities away. Shiro told me to remove the concealment spell and the demonic spell when you came of age and that meant when you became 18.
Shiro also told me to take you through the bone eaters well because it was a portal to the future and to find a family that would adopt you in order to keep you safe from the hawk demons and his other enemies. I asked him how he knew this and he told me that his clan had knowledge of this and they were the guardians of the well. After your father passed away I buried him at the foot of Mt. Fuji. I did as I was told and I took you through the bone eaters well and we were transported into the future. On the other side of the well was Sunset Shrine and it was there that I met Kun Loon Higarashi and her husband. She saw that you were a demon when she opened the blanket that held you, and I placed a concealment spell on you so that you would appear human in order for you to have a normal life and protection should any of my or your fathers enemies come looking for you."
Midoriko looked at her beautiful daughter, as tears ran down the younger girls cheeks, "Kagome, little one, please don't be angry at me. I had no choice but to give you up and let someone else raise you. Your father was dead and I already had a premonition of my death and I knew that I had made many enemies of those evil demons who were afraid of my power and these were the same ones who plotted my demise. And to answer your question as to why you transformation was so painful is because the seal on your demonic power has been in place since you were a baby and once the seal was removed your demonic youki was clashing with your miko ki and both of those powers had to balance themselves out. Understand, If I could've Kagome I would have kept you and raised you but, I didn't want you to be killed by mine and your fathers enemies. Please forgive me little one, I'm so very sorry.
Kagome ran towards Midoriko only to find that Midoriko wasn't a ghost or spirit but she was in living breathing flesh. Her mother wrapped her arms around her daughter and hugged her. Kagome blinked as she stood there completely stunned that her mother Midoriko could hold her and hug her and then after a few moments she asked "Momma, why is it that I can feel your arms around me and how are you alive again?"
"That's simple Kagome the Kami's gave me my life back because they knew that I was the only one who could teach you how to use your miko healing and demonic powers properly." Midoriko replied, smiling at Kagome.
"Momma, I want you to know that I forgive you and I understand why you couldn't keep me as a baby and raise me," Kagome said, "thank you for loving and protecting me."
"You're welcome little one." Midoriko replied, "Kagome, I want to show you and Youko all of the demonic powers and abilities that I got from your father Shiro when we mated."
"Sure Mom, I would like to see that and so would Youko." Kagome said.
Midoriko let go of her daughter and took a step back. She removed her concealment spell and started to glow. The light of this glow was so bright that Kagome and Youko had to cover their eyes. When the light had faded and they uncovered their eyes they saw Midoriko's appearance had changed. Midoriko's hair turned a dark sliver, she had fox ears, claws, fangs, and five silky tails the same color as her hair, her eyes turned from cinnamon mahogany brown to sky blue color flecked with gold. Both Kagome and Youko's eyes went wide as they just looked awestruck at Midoriko's appearance.
Midoriko then demonstrated all of the elements that she could control. There was fire, water, earth, wind, ice, and lightning. After she turned to Kagome and said "Kagome you possess the same abilities and powers just as your late father had in addition to the miko powers that you inherited from me."
"Momma that's amazing." Kagome spoke in amazement.
"Thank you, little one." Midoriko replied.
"Momma, I have just one question?" Kagome spoke.
"What is it little one?" Midoriko asked.
"Why is your hair dark sliver if my dad's was the same color as mine and you took on all of his powers whenever the two of you mated?" Kagome asked.
"Well, little one to be quite honest I found out as I did some research of my family line that two of my ancestors were demons. I had a great aunt who was a shadow kitsune and a great grandmother who was a silver kitsune. And this is the reason for the darker silver hair. You see my demonic blood was awakened when me and your father Shiro mated." said Midoriko.
"Wow, I really have a very interesting family tree." Kagome giggled.
"Indeed, little one I would say so." Midoriko smiled.
"Kagome, I want you to listen very closely to what I have to say and remember this from this day fourth. You are not a shard detector like that dead miko chasing hanyou Inuyasha kept saying you were. You are my daughter, the daughter of Shiro the Leader of The Crystal Kitsune Clan, The Guardian of Shikon no Tama and not Kikiyo's reincarnation and from the moment that you were born I and your father Shiro knew that you were destined for greatness. You see unlike any of the other kits born to the Crystal Clan you were born a twin tail and this is extremely rare because a fox gets a new tail every one hundred years. In fact your power far exceeds the dead miko's and it rivals my own." Midoriko said.
"Momma is that also the reason why I was in danger as a baby and I couldn't stay in the feudal era?" Kagome asked, after shaking away her shock.
"Yes, it was little one because if one of my enemies or your father's enemies captured you they would've exploited you and tried to use your powers for evil or even use you as a weapon." Midoriko said, "And can you imagine if when Naraku was alive and he found out that you were a demoness and had that kind of power what he would have done just to obtain it."
Kagome shuddered at the thought of having her powers used for evil, especially by Naraku when he lived. She witnessed first-hand the evil destruction that the foul hanyou did. She saw many lives destroyed and the pain that he caused.
"Kagome, little one I'm very grateful to Kaede for teaching you so much about the plants and herbs that can heal the sick and the injured, but you need to be trained how to use your miko powers to heal the injured as well as yourself. She has taught you the basics, but you need to be taught so much more. True you are very powerful, but you need to be taught how to purify the souls of demons as well as the various other spells that a miko uses." Midoriko explained.
"You're right momma and I agree with you that there are many more things for me to learn as a miko." Kagome said.
"Little one it is not your fault that you didn't get to learn more about being a miko. Inuyasha was completely selfish by not letting you have the time to learn more from Kaede about being a miko with just looking for jewel shards all of the time. And I'm quite sure if his father Inu Tashio still was living that selfish little brat of a hanyou would've been punished. And oh, speaking of Inu Tashio did you know that he is no longer in the underworld." Midoriko said, though the last part was more of an after-thought.
Kagome's eyes went wide and so did Youko's at Midoriko's last statement. "What do you mean that he's not in the underworld anymore!" Kagome exclaimed, "I've been to Inu Tashio's grave twice."
"What I mean is that Inu Tashio has earned Kami Status and he's in heaven and that's the reason he's no longer in the underworld anymore." Midoriko explained with some amusement in her voice.
"But how? Wasn't Inuyasha's father a demon?" asked Kagome.
"It's because of the kindness that he showed the subjects of his lands as Lord of the Western Lands. He was never cruel to any of his servants and unlike his son Seeshomaru he had a love of humans. Izayoi was proof of that and when he used Tensaiga to bring her back to life he showed his love for her and his son Inuyasha. This somehow caught the attention of the Kami's." Midoriko said.
"Have the Kami's been watching me too?" Kagome asked.
"Yes, little one they have and they are quite pleased especially the Goddess Inari and that's where you got the very kimono that your wearing. It was a gift from her, and also this kimono has a special ability. It amplifies both your miko and your demonic powers as well as it can protect you from curses and various evil spells from dark mikos. In addition to that it acts as armor protecting you from weapons and can protect you the same way that Inuyasha's fire rat coat can." Midoriko explained, smiling at her daughter.
"Wow!" Kagome breathed in awe.
"Yes, Inari's gift is only the first of many from the Kami's. For they have seen your love of not just humans but, of youkai and hanyous alike. They've observed your bravery and your sheer will as well as your great courage in the face of danger. But, what really impressed the Kami's the most was your kindness. I wouldn't be surprised if Inari herself wouldn't pay you a visit in the near future." Midoriko said.
Kagome's face lit up with happiness and her eyes filled with tears of joy because she knew that someone was truly watching and that someone really paid attention to what she had been doing for these three years in the feudal era and someone truly cared. Now it's not that her friends Sango, Miroku, Kaede, Shippo, Kouga and many countless others didn't care because they all truly did and took note of it, but for someone like her who was always treated like second best by Inuyasha. For her to catch the attention of the Kami's this touched her quite deeply for this meant that her mother was right she was destined for greatness and to the Kami's she was special, and no matter what she would always stay humble and keep her integrity and always stay true to herself. Kagome was quickly brought out of her musings when her mother gave a slight "ahem" and cleared her throat and she spoke again.
"Kagome, little one it has been a long day and I can see that your completely exhausted from your ordeal of transformation, the unsealing of your demonic powers and the removal of the concealment spell. You need to get a good night's rest because tomorrow will be far more tiring than today." Midoriko said.
Kagome stretches and yawns then she says "I believe your right momma I didn't realize that I was so tired."
"Kagome, please have Youko take you somewhere private where you can get a good night's sleep because if you go back to camp and the village your friends will have lots of questions given your appearance now and I know that you don't want to have to deal with that foul mouthed hanyou Inuyasha tonight." Midoriko advised, "One more thing little one there's someone that I would like for you and Youko to meet tomorrow."
Both Kagome and Youko looked at one another and then Kagome asked "Who do you wants us to meet?" Kagome asked.
"I want you to meet my friend Akari." said Midoriko.
"Who is that?" Kagome asked.
"Akari, is a 10-tailed kitsune goddess and she is the mother of all kitsune kind and races and she also has a gift that she wants to give you, little one." Midoriko said.
"I've heard of a 9-tailed kitsune, but I've never heard of a 10-tailed one." Kagome said, sharing a shocked look with Youko.
"Let me assure you little one that a 10-tailed kitsune does exist." Midoriko said.
"What-ever you say mom. I'm curious and I want to meet your friend Akari and I wonder what kind of gift she has for me?" Kagome spoke.
"I don't know what kind of gift or gifts that she has for you because she won't tell me. She said it was a surprise, but trust me on this if the mother of all kitsune kind has a gift for you then this means that she has deemed you as worthy to receive a gift from her because she's never did this for anyone else before." Midoriko said, "One more thing before I forget. Let me remind and give you and Youko a warning avoid the Western Lands because by now Lord Seeshomaru has felt this power surge and he will stop at nothing to investigate it moreover, if he sees your appearance now there could be problems later which could change your destiny drastically."
"Momma what do you mean if Lord Seeshomaru sees my appearance now this could cause problems later which could change my destiny drastically?" Kagome asked a look of worry on her face.
"Little one, remember that fight that you had with Inuyasha the other night." said Midoriko.
"Yes, I remember. How could I not remember that crazy fight?" Kagome replied with a sigh.
"Well, Lord Seeshomaru saw the whole thing and because of that fight with his half-brother Inuyasha, how should I put this, it seems that Lord Seeshomaru has taken a liking to you." Midoriko said.
Kagome's eyes went wide and she gasped. Youko growled inwardly his eyes flashing red briefly at the demon lord obvious affections for his intended mate, his vixen Kagome.
"What?" Kagome yelled as her ears and her tails twitched nervously, "momma, you mean to tell me that The Ice Prince, The Killing Perfection and the Destruction of The Circle Life, Lord Seeshomaru, Lord of The Western Lands has a crush on me!" Kagome shouted.
"I am afraid so. He also knows that you possess great power, which to him equals a powerful mate and powerful strong pups." Midoriko said, "You know how he craves power and conquest and he would like nothing more than to conquer you."
"He would actually try to pup me?" Kagome shrieked, hurting both her mothers and Youko's ears.
"Yes, little one he would. Plus he would challenge Youko's claim to you in order to make you Lady of the Western Lands." Midoriko spoke, worry evident in her voice, "Trust me things could get very ugly very quickly if that were to happen. Thus your destiny would be changed drastically."
Kagome suddenly felt the ground beneath her shift and she became dizzy and lightheaded and she fainted, but before she could even hit the ground Youko used his demonic speed and caught her in his arms.
Youko's P.O.V.
Oh, Kami she fainted. I've got to get her out of here before Seeshomaru decides to come here.
"Youko, please get my daughter out of here and somewhere safe for the night. I have a feeling Lord Seeshomaru will come looking for her soon." Midoriko said.
"Don't worry Midoriko I promise to protect Kagome with my very life and I have the perfect place that we both can hide until morning." Youko said as he picked Kagome up bridal style, "I've got a secluded cave that I prepared for the day that I finally found my intended mate Kagome once again." He grabbed Kagome's yellow backpack and sped off into the night leaving behind a much relieved Midoriko in her wake.
An Hour Later Youko Arrived at His Secluded Cave with Kagome
Youko's P.O.V.
I finally made it to the cave and poor Kagome is still out cold, but no worries Lord Seeshomaru will never find us here, but just in case I will place two death trees on guard and place a barrier over the mouth of the cave.
Author's P.O.V.
Youko sets Kagome's yellow backpack down on the floor of the cave and then he placed Kagome down on the futon and covered her with some silk sheets and fur blankets. Then he reached into his silver hair and pulled out 2 seeds. He held them in the palm of his hand and let his youki go into the seeds and they started to glow with an ominous and eerie light and then they start to sprout. After that he placed the two sprouting seeds into the ground on either side of the cave and they quickly grew into death trees. Lastly, he placed a strong barrier over the mouth of the cave.
Normal P.O.V.
After Youko secured his cave he quickly goes over to his and Kagome's futon and pulls the covers back. He crawls into bed and wraps his arms around her and holds her closely to him and then Youko closes his eyes.
The last thing that Youko uttered before he fell into a deep and peaceful sleep was "Don't worry my little vixen, my angel, my sweet Kagome I won't let Seeshomaru touch you because you are mine forever and he will never have you I promise on my honor as a kitsune. I vow to protect you with my dying breath, Kagome." The Great Youko Kurama the King of Thieves drifted off into a very deep and peaceful sleep with his intended mate wrapped safely in his arms as she snuggled closer into his warmth joining him in blissful sweet slumber.
