Chapter 25

After that night Kagome found herself unable to face Inuyasha like she use us. Not after she had seen and felt what he had felt for her mother. Every day she would go off and train on her own, the day had passed when she went to the market and she had made sure to go alone. When she had returned she handed everyone what they had ask her to get before she made her way to her room. Just as she was about to reach the bed room door, her son came running at her before he jumped into her arms in fear. Before she could ask what was going on, Kagome placed a barrier around her self as the demon charged at her without a care.

Once she had placed the barrier up, Kagome glared at the demon that had dared attack her son and waited for another attack. Just as he had lifted his weapon up to strike again, Kagome placed her son down and avoided the weapon before she placed her miko filled hands on his back. Once he was unable to move, Kagome hissed out, "What do you think you are doing to my son?"

"Who are you?" he growled.

"I believe I was the first to ask that question. Now answer me, what do you think you are doing to my son?" Kagome growled in anger as the dragons around her began to growl in anger as well.

"What is going on here?" Kaede was heard as she and Kikiyo walked over to the her.

"This demon was trying to harm my son." Kagome answered as she kept her eyes locked on the demon before her so that she could try and figure out who had sent him.

"Who are ye?" Kaede demanded to know as she began to pull out some herbs so that she could get the truth out of him.

"Fuck…you…miko." He growled out as he tried to break free from Kagome's hold.

"Oka…he came running after me while I was playing with Kirara in the forest." Shippo whispered.

"I will not allow him to leave without he answers my questions." Kagome hissed.

"Perhaps we should call for one of the Prince's or the King." Kikiyo stated.

"No, I am capable for dealing with this." Kagome hissed back. "This is personal."

"Oka…you're scaring me." Shippo whispered before he ran off to get his father.

"Shippo!" Kagome yelled as she turned around only to briefly los control over the hold of she had on the demon.

As soon as he had found himself able to move, the demon quickly moved to attack her. Just as she was about to reach Shippo Kagome closed her eyes as images flashed before her. She could see how the demon behind her would die, and she could see him glaring at one person and one person alone. As she turned around to find the last of his body turning to ash, Kagome heard Kikiyo say, "I am sorry that you were unable to find who had put him up to this task however I do not believe the king or the dragons for that matter would enjoy the scent of your blood."

"I do not care what they would have liked." Kagome hissed as she turned and to take a step toward Kikiyo. "What I wanted to know will never be known to be because of your failure to see what he meant to me."

"Kagome, ye need to calm down." Kaede spoke.

"No!" Kagome roared as she took another step toward Kikiyo. "I will not allow her to go unpunished when she has killed the demon whom did not answer my question!"

"Are you stating that you will attack my brothers intended?" a cold and familiar voice was heard.

Kagome, Kikiyo, and Kaede turned around to find a scared Shippo in Rin's arms and Sesshomaru standing next to the two with his sword drawn. Knowing that if she did not explain herself properly she would have to state her true name, Kagome took in a deep breath and said, "I have not heard of such a thing, however if that is the case then I assure you that I will request something to be done. Even if it to Prince Inuyasha's intended."

"Who are you to make sure a request?" Kikiyo hissed as she stood behind Sesshomaru.

"She is second Princess of the Taijiya country. Who are you to question that?" Sango's pissed off voice was heard.

"Princess Sango do you realize what your sister has stated means?" Rin asked as Shippo jumped out of her arms and into his mother's arms.

"I completely understand however I suggest you explain things to Kikiyo, Prince Inuyasha's intended before things go any further, should she wish to apologize then I'm sure this will end peacefully." Sango replied.

"What are you two talking about?" Kagome asked.

"You must fight Kikiyo if you wish to get your answer, that is how it works sister." Sango answered in a serious voice.

"Kikiyo, apologize now." Inuyasha's cold voice was heard as he walked up to his brother.

"Inuyasha, do you realize what that would mean to your intended?" Rin asked in worry. 'I thought he cared about her?'

"I do, that is why she much." Inuyasha answered as he locked eyes with Sesshomaru. "She should have realized that Kagome see's the runt as her own, to stop a mother from protecting her child is something that no one as a right to do in our lands."

"Inuyasha, is that really what you wish of me?" Kikiyo whispered.

"Yes." Inuyasha answered in a cold voice as he kept his eyes locked on Kagome.

'Something has changed, something I was unable to foresee when I was alive. My daughter, will you truly die?' Kikiyo thought sadly as she said, "Please forgive me Princess Sango for the disrespect I have shown before your sister."

"Kagome?" Sango asked.

"You are forgiven, come on Shippo, let's go, we need to go and get Dante and Helios, we have to go somewhere." Kagome answered as she turned and walked away.

"I'll go after her, beside, I have been wanting to see the dragons in for a while no." Rin was heard. "If you all will excuse me."

"Feh, Kikiyo come with me." Inuyasha growled as he began to walk away.

"What do you think we should do now?" Sesshomaru asked once they were left alone.

"In case you didn't realize it, Inuyasha was enraged because of what Kikiyo did to Kagome, not the other way around." Miroku was heard as he appeared behind Sango.

"I believe he did, however Kagome still doesn't see him as her future mate." Sango added.

Meanwhile, Kagome made her way to the court yard where Hojo and another miko that she had helped were getting ready to leave and head back to their original village. Once she had caught up to them, Kagome turned to Eri and said, "This time try not to freak out if you fall off."

"I won't I've made sure I'm use to it." Eri answered.

"Dante, you better keep her and yourself safe this time." Kagome hissed.

'I will mistress, you can count on me.' Dante answered.

"Kagome?" Hojo was heard as he came up with his dragon.

"Hojo, Shikamaru…how are you two feeling?" Kagome asked.

"We're great, thanks to you." Hojo answered.

'Thank you for treating us.' Shikamaru stated.

"I'm glad, so you'll be training more right?" Kagome asked.

"Of course, I'm sure I'll make you proud, please come and visit us soon." Hojo stated.

"Hojo, I'm sorry, but I am a mother now, I do not want to look for love or a man to marry until I am sure that my son will grow up alright." Kagome replied in a calm and sad voice.

"I understand, I just hope that someday you will see me as the man that can be the father of your son." Hojo stated before he jumped onto his dragon and took off.

"Damn it Hojo!" Eri yelled. "You're suppose to wait for me….bye Kagome, see you soon."

"See you." Kagome stated.

'He'll be fine, you've gotten stronger, therefore, we have gotten stronger.' Helios answered.

"Yeah, Shippo honey, come on, I want you to stay with me for the rest of the day." Kagome stated as she began to walk with Helios toward the other side of the forest.

'Where are we going mistress?' Helios asked.

'We are going to go and see just what that bitch was up to.' Kagome answered.

"Oka, I want to play…I don't like this side of the forest." Shippo called.

"I'll watch him." Rin as heard as she appeared in front of them.

"Princess Rin, it is an honor." Kagome stated as she and her dragon bowed down.

"There is no need for that." Rin answered. "Helios I hope you are doing will."

'Thank you, I am doing well and I hope you and your daughter are as well.' Helios growled only to have Kagome tell Rin what he had growled out.

"I see, well we are doing well, however if it is not too much trouble, would you allow me to get my daughter so that she and Shippo can play with you." Rin stated.

'It would be my honor.' Helios answered.

"He said that it would be his honor, and I can assure you that he will keep you and your daughter safer than any of your guards can." Kagome stated.

"I believe you and I have trust in your son, now, Shippo would you like to come with me while your mother has some time with herself?" Rin asked in a sweet voice.

"Oka?" Shippo asked.

"its alright, Princess Rin can I trust that I will see my son before dinner?" Kagome asked.

"Of course, that is if you decided to join us." Rin answered with a grin of her own.

"Then I shall see you tonight, until then." Kagome replied. "Shippo honey, play nice and behave.

Knowing that her son would be alright with Rin and Helios, Kagome took her leave and entered the forest. She had seen this forest when she had been able to get a glimpse of what it was the demon did not want to tell her before his death. Once she was in the forest, Kagome closed her eyes and took in a deep breath as she whispered, "Lead me now, where answers lie, my eyes of truth will no longer be caged liked birds."

Inuyasha growled as he held Kikiyo against the god tree by her throat. Not only was he pissed off at her for talking down to Kagome like that but he was out ragged that she had easily purified the only demon that could tell them who had ordered him to attack his son. Once she had submitted his pulled his hand back as he growled out, "You had no right to do that."

"Do what? Save her?" Kikiyo asked as best as she could as she tried to even her breathing.

"You know what it is that I talk about Kikiyo; now answer me, why did you kill the only demon that had all the answers?" Inuyasha growled out once again.

"I killed him because he was about to kill Lady Kagome, furthermore, why are you so interested in that girl, I am your intended just liked you asked of me, not her." Kikiyo hissed as she slowly stood up.

"Feh, what I do until we are mates is none of your concern, now I will not tell you again, Kikiyo, you better not do things that will upset me, otherwise I will call of this marriage." Inuyasha growled as he turned around to face away from her.

"If I am your intended I have every right to know what is going on with that girl." Kikiyo stated. "Furthermore, if you are meeting with that girl at night I would like to be at your side."

"Why is that?" Inuyasha asked.

"Because I do not trust her, she seems like the type to us her miko powers to get what she wants." Kikiyo answered.

Enraged by her statement, Inuyasha once again grabbed her by the throat and lifted her up and off of the ground as he growled out, "She is not that kind of person, if you ever say anything bed about her you will find you're self being punished by you intended."

"Please forgive me Prince Inuyasha." Kikiyo whispered as she tried to breathe properly with his hand around her throat.

"Feh, don't be late to dinner." Inuyasha growled as he dropped her and disappeared from her sight before she could say anything else.

'What want wrong? What is going on? The only way to end this is to remove the so that she can see the truth and follow after me, I'll have to report this to Kagura tonight.' Kikiyo thought as she slowly stood up and began to make her way back to Kaede so that she could continue her so called training.

Kagome entered the clearing and could feel a spell around the small clearing. It was to keep her from seeing what she wanted to see. Knowing that she had no choice, Kagome once again closing her eyes, Kagome allowed her dragon eyes and sense to take control so that she could try to break through the spell. After allowing this sense to take control Kagome opened her eyes and found herself in a dark area with a large white dragon standing before her. It was her mother's dragon. "What are you doing here? You are supposed to be resting in peace."

'I cannot rest in peace while my mistresses soul is lost in this darkness.' The dragon answered.

"My mother, what happened to her soul…tell me know." Kagome demanded to know.

'Forgive me princess for I do not know…if you would like, I will show you what went on here, so long as you allow me to attach myself to your soul so that I may find and free my mistress.'

"I will allow it, however you are not to take over or to over shadow me unless I have allowed it." Kagome hissed as she walked over to the dragon and placed her head against the forehead of the dragon before her.

As soon as her will had allowed the dragon to do what it had wished to do with her, Kagome fell to her knees as she saw everything that was going on. She watched as Kikiyo met with one of Naraku's spies, a demon named Kagura. She watched as they talked about luring her out, how she knew who she was. It wasn't until she heard Kikiyo call her, her daughter that she sat up and opened her eyes to find herself on the floor of the clearing. As she looked around Kagome realized that it was dust and that if she didn't hurry she would be late for dinner late Rin had asked her to go. 'Kikiyo…is my mother…she…than Inuyasha…oh my god.' Kagome thought as she turned into a bush and threw up everything and anything that was in her stomach.

It was now or never, if this was really her mother and if her mother was really engaged to Inuyasha she would not allow it. She would not allow her mother to take her intended and she would defiantly not allow her mother to harm anyone she loved. 'Tonight I will request of the king to move our match to the day after tomorrow. After that I will have to make plans with Dante, and Helios.'
