Recap:
Kagome felt uneasy as the young man came over to stand in front of them, fixing his robes. He seemed calmed until he grabbed them both by the hair and slammed them to the ground. Kagome felt pain and then heard a growl so low and menacing that Naraku would've pissed himself.
"How dare you, let go of my mother!" Kagome froze. It was...
Story:
... Shippo.
"WHAT?!" Everyone except Akito and Tohru yelled. Instead Tohru, Akito, and Kagome held faces of shock.
"I said let go!" Shippo said. "You're a disgrace to your ancestors! I've let this go on long enough and you've had plenty of chances and warnings! Sango and Miroku would be so ashamed to see one of their descendants treating their sister this way!" Kagome stared at the floor at the realization of the past of the Sohma's. They were Sango's and Miroku's descendants. They had survived the years through the children they had and Kagome was able to meet them. She was so happy. She wanted to run to her son, however Akito had not let go of her hair.
"How dare you tell me what to do you lowly fox! I am the leader of this family! My ancestors were weak minded fools!" As soon as the last word left his lips everyone heard to audible 'snaps'. Kagome was up, Akito was down and Shippo's claws were at his throat. The miko energy came off Kagome in waves and Akito reacted to it as if they were flames burning his flesh. She wasn't purifying, but the anger she held was difficult to withhold.
"How dare you! How dare you talk about Miroku and Sango like that! They were not weak! They were strong and risked their lives to make sure you had a future! Without them you wouldn't exist!" She gently pushed Shippo off Akito so she could grab his collar. "And how dare you insult my son like that! He doesn't deserve your shit! No one does! Pull your act together why don't you!" Kagome inhaled deeply before letting some miko energy temporarily enter his body. She let go and picked her arms up.
"SIT!" She threw her hands down as the word echoed through the estate and the leader of the Sohma family face planted into the ground. The miko energy left his body and he glared up at her. She glared at him. "What the heck is wrong with you?"
"Kagome stop please!" Kagome turned to see Tohru grasping onto her skirt. "Please stop." Kagome stopped as Tohru talked to the leader. How she didn't know how it felt to be cursed, or what it was like to be told at birth that his only purpose in living was to die. He glared at her.
"Shut up! You know nothing about me or how I feel! They never even asked me!" Kagome but in.
"What's you're point? Miroku was also cursed to die, only a horrific death that plagued his family, and he didn't turn into an ass! And Sango lost her whole clan and her brother was kidnapped and manipulated by an evil Arachnid and turned against her! And she was one of the nicest women I've met! So you can shove it! Also I never asked for your opinion about my living arrangements. That was decided by my mother!"
He was shocked at Kagome's words and had a revelation. He gave Kagome and Tohru permission to continue living at Shigure's. Shippo talked to Hatori briefly and went to the gates with the others. Kyo met them halfway and looked at Shippo in question.
"Who's this?" Kagome hugged the demon fox.
"This is my son Shippo." She smiled. She looked back briefly and noticed that he now had eight tails. "Oh my gosh Shippo! When'd you get these?!" She said excitedly. She then saw a twitch out of the corner of her eyes and squealed in excitement. Her son had lost his point human ears and received adorable Fox ears.
Shippo slowly backed away noticing the slightly crazed look in her eye. She only got that look when she was overly excited. And he knew why. He was about to turn away and run when his mother latched onto the furry appendages on his head and started to rub them. She giggled all the while. Everyone with them stared in shock.
"Oh Shippo they're beautiful! And so soft too! Better than Inuyasha's!" The mention of her old friend made her stop briefly. "How's-?" He got a sad look on his face.
"Inuyasha died a few years after Kikyo died." Kagome looked at him.
"What about Sesshomaru?" She let go of his ears and clutched her hands to her heart, waiting for the response. He looked away.
"He died trying to protect Miroku's and Sango's descendants from getting cursed. Unfortunately, he failed and protecting the family fell on my shoulders." Kagome allowed the tears to fall from her eyes. Shippo wrapped his arms around her as she cried into his shoulder.
"W-What about R-Rin?" She said between cries. Shippo looked down at her curiously.
"You don't know?" She looked up at him as he spun her around to look at Tohru. "You've been living with one of her direct descendants." Kagome let the realization hit her as she recognized a bit of Rin's aura in Tohru. She cried more as she threw herself at Tohru.
"I can't believe it! I can't believe it!" Tohru stood shocked for a moment.
"You mean you're-?" Kagome smiled at her closest friend and some odd great granddaughter.
"This might be one of the greatest days of my life!" Kagome smiled, cried, and laughed as she hugged Tohru and Shippo came to join the hug. Kagome couldn't help it. Her lover may be dead as well as one of her best friends, but most of her family had survived.
So heart warming! She met her past family again! My sister helped me write this one so I hope you all like it!
