XI.

After dinner they all made their way out to Sakura's garden so she could explain what needed to happen and why she was needed. After making sure everyone was comfortable and she had their attention Sakura decided that it was time to start.

After clearing her throat she began, "The Medo Stone is a family heirloom that is passed down to each female of blood relation in my family once they reach mating age. It has two specific powers the first is to open a pathway into the underworld and the second is to call a sprit to this world for a short time."

Megumi gasped, "You have to call Shippo's sprit to our world to complete the transformation!"

Sakura nodded her head, "Yes I do it is the only way to complete Lady Kagome's transformation from human miko to miko kitsune yokai."

Kagome looked at her with wide eyes, "What would happen to my reiki?"

Sakura smiled softly at Kagome, "That is the thing my dear you still have your reiki but everything else is changing. Perhaps when I call your kit he can explain."

Kagome nodded her head, "So when are we going to do this?"

Sakura smiled at her and pulled the necklace with the Medo Stone on it off and sat it in the middle of where they were sitting, "Right now if you are ready."

Kagome nodded her head and Sakura began pouring her power into the stone calling for Shippo's sprit. It did not take long for it to answer and be brought into a form in front of all of them.

Shippo whimpered as he looked at Kagome, "You are not mad at me for what I did are you Kagome?"

Tears streaming down her face she answered in a very soft voice, "Of course not I could never be angry with you for this. "

He nodded his little head and curled into her lap even though Kagome could not feel him there she could see him and that is all that mattered. Megumi and Sakura watched the scene with tears in their eyes and Sesshomaru just watched in curiosity.

Sakura sighed, "Shippo we need you to explain a few things to us. Like how is it Lady Kagome still has her reiki but is becoming a yokai?"

Shippo looked at her and smiled, "It is because I did not want to change her I just did not want to lose her either. I look at her like a second mother she cared for me like a mother would when no one else would take me in. I wanted her to become yokai without losing what make her who she is. Once the transformation is complete she will be a full blood miko kitsune yokai. She will have a beast and everything but she will still keep her reiki it will fuse with her yokai."

Everyone looked at him with wide eyes and then looked at Kagome. They could see the changes taking place Shippo was already completing her transformation as they were speaking.

Shippo looked at Sesshomaru, "Lord Sesshomaru I ask that you train Kagome with her new powers. You are the most powerful demon in the world and you are the only one that will surpass her in power once she is completely transformed."

Megumi gasped, "How is she that powerful?"

Sesshomaru answered this time, "She is the Shikon Miko that held and enormous amount of power before she started to transform. Now she is becoming a demon and she will hold the same power the kid held. He was very powerful for one so young and since he has passed on to the afterlife he is passing all of his power to her. Once she is trained she will be a formidable foe to any that cross her. I will train her kit."

Shippo nodded his head as he began to fade. His work here was done and it was time for him to return. He looked at Kagome, "Good bye momma I will always watch over you."

Kagome sobbed, "Good bye my little Shippo I will miss you and never forget you!"

Then he was gone and Kagome's transformation was complete.
