AN: Thank you all for the reviews and the ideas some of you had supplied to me.

In reply to Tondakude's review, I plan on adding Demona to the story but not because of the Jewel. Its power had been purified and put into dormancy because it had been with Kagome for so long. So it's now nothing more than a harmless pink marble, like the souvenir key chains her shrine sells. But Demona will appear to Kagome for an entirely different reason.

Anyways, hope you guys enjoy this chapter.

Chapter Seven

Kouga couldn't believe he lost. Especially when it was his one chance to have Kagome as his mate and Sesshoumaru didn't have a say in it should he have won. But Kouga guessed that he should've expected Kagome to be stronger than him because, not only was she not human anymore but also she was trained by Sango and Sesshoumaru months before the final battle.

After the pain in his gut from Kagome's kick subsided, Kouga lifted himself up to sit upright and brood for a bit.

Elisa saw her new partner like this and knew that he was not only downhearted about not being able to be with the white gargoyle but probably had his male pride bruised. She walked over to him and said softly once she was in front of him, "I guess you saying you were a wolf demon from Japan was true, considering they kept saying you knew her from five hundred years ago."

It was more of a statement than anything.

Kouga lifted his head slightly to his partner before letting his gaze rest on Kagome sadly as she was given praise from Sesshoumaru, along with the old gargoyle Hudson for giving a good fight. The wolf demon then replied, "I told you that I was telling the truth."

Sometime after Kouga moved to the US and was assigned as Elisa's partner, he had told Elisa that he was demon. At first, she didn't believe him but after proving her that he was, she started to believe. All that was left was her to believe that he was more than five hundred years old.

Elisa followed his gaze and understood what he was probably feeling. She then told him, "Isn't it said that the best thing to do for the one you love is to let them go and wish them the best? That is… if you truly care about her…"

It was a saying that was probably well known but it was something that her parents had always told her when she went through a breakup or was too late to tell the guy she liked about how she felt. Even years after high school, Elisa still took it to heart.

Kouga knew what she was trying to say and understood completely. He was lucky enough to even have Kagome as a close friend. And he admit, he was being self-centered for trying to get Kagome to be his mate when it was plausible and most likely that Inuyasha's death was still fresh. And just by making a move too fast, he already lost his chance of her being with him.

He gave Elisa a nod to acknowledge what she had said before standing and making his to where to group stood with Elisa walking along side him.

Kagome noticed them coming towards her and turned to Kouga with an unreadable expression. Once Kouga was standing in front of her, she smiled before wrapping her arms around the wolf demon and asked Japanese, "Are we still friends, Kouga-kun?"

Kouga just grinned before returning the embrace, saying, "Yeah… we're still friends Kagome. But I still get a say in about whoever you find to be your mate." That last remark was half playful and half serious. Kouga really wanted Kagome to be happy, should she find a male to be her mate. The miko turned gargoyle was still pack, and he wanted nothing than a pack member's happiness.

The miko chuckled before answering, "Of course." Her attention was turned to Elisa before Kouga introduced them.

With the exchange of greetings, Elisa came to the conclusion that Kagome wasn't such a bad person. A very skilled fighter but was very sweet and caring with an air of old wisdom about her.

Kagome thought that Elisa was a great person too. And with a bit of her sixth sense, she could see that a bond had already formed between her and Kouga. Let it grow stronger and the two of them would be inseparable.

'There's even a chance that Ms. Maza could become Kouga's true one and only…' Kagome thought with a smirk.

She then turned to Goliath and his clan saying, "I'm guessing you guys are pretty curious of what my story is…"

"It would help us understand you better…" Goliath spoke on behalf of the clan. He had to admit, Kagome's fighting skills were… mesmerizing… yet uniquely effective with flexibility and precision. Not to mention more graceful than the average female gargoyle's combat skills, where as they charge using nothing but brute force with punches and tackles.

(That's how I see it, especially when it comes to Demona, even though she only seems to use laser guns and other modern manmade weapons.)

Many of the others saw this too and agreed that they would also like to hear Kagome's story about her past.

Just as she was about to explain, Sesshoumaru rested a hand on her shoulder suggesting, "Why don't we all take this inside? It's about to rain soon and I know none of us want to get caught in it." As he started his way to one of the many entrances into the castle, Kagome and the rest of her family, along with Kouga began to follow.

This confused Angela and the Trio because they didn't see one rain cloud all night and this silver haired… male was saying that it was going to rain?

Unfortunately, just as Xanatos as well as Goliath, Hudson, and Elisa stepped inside with Kagome's family, thunder roared and rain began to pour.

---------------------------------------

Sometime after Angela and the trio got dried up and Owen had a fire going, Kagome had already begun her story her story.

She had told them everything from the day she was dragged down the well, to how she met everyone, and to the preparation for the final battle. As Kagome was about to tell them what had happened during the final battle… she couldn't seem to bring her self to say what had happened as she clutched the locket she noticed around her neck.

It was the same locket that she gave Inuyasha from when they fought Princess Kaguya. She remembered that it had pictures of both her and Inuyasha inside it.

Everyone guessed that what happened in the final battle was a touchy subject. Especially with how much they saw her demeanor change, along with the way she gripped the locket around her neck.

Seeing how much it affected Kagome, Sesshoumaru took over explaining what at happened before telling everyone that Kagome was willing to show everyone what had happened five hundred years ago.

"What do you mean by showing us?" Fox asked. After the gargoyles, her husband and assistant, and their guests came back into the castle, she had met them in one of the living areas that led to the elevator.

At this, Kagome lit the locket drop out of her grasp before gripping the completely pure Shikon and letting her power flow into it- asking it to show everyone in the room what had happened that fateful night making it glow a strong pinkish lavender light.

Goliath and the others were on edge at first as everything around them faded into what looked like the clearing of a forest that had an old dried well. Hudson came to realize that they were seeing an illusion with Kagome confirming them, "Yes… what you all are seeing is my memories of what happened the night of the final battle in physical form for all of you to see." After a pause she continued, "It's much easier for me to show you than to tell you in words."

After she had said these words, everyone heard something come from inside the well. What came out wasn't what they were expecting.

It was Kagome, dressed in a pair of knee-length hakama and short-sleeved Haori. But unlike the white female gargoyle they all met… this was Kagome in human form…

I know this is short but I felt like updating. Hope you guys enjoyed this. What will the gargoyles' reaction be of seeing what happened during the final battle?

Please review. Ideas and Suggestions are welcome but Flames aren't.
