Kagome felt a power rise up in her and she shook her head crying "YOU WILL NOT END UP LIKE YOUR FATHER SESSHOMARU! AND NARAKU DON'T YOU EVER GIVE UP! I DID NOT MATE COWARDS!"

Rin pushed herself out from behind the pillar and charged at the demon she jumped into the air and Sesshomaru's mother shot a tentacle her direction. She felt a power inside her like nothing ever before it burned but felt good like it was helping the burning helped, a blue light engulfed the place and where Rin was floating was Midoriko herself. She smiled her long flowing dark brown hair to her knees, her priestess attire with battle armor, her sword in her hand she formed a blue barrier redirecting the attack.

"Lady Kikyo I could use some help if you don't mind."

Kagome was engulfed into a blinding blue light and where she was slowly walking toward Midoriko was now Kikyo with her hair in a famous priestess pony tail, her classic priestess attire and trusty bow. She floated up into Midoriko's barrier "Midoriko, let's save our mates." She nodded and cracked her neck seeing Kikyo crack her knuckles "Yes, lets."

Midoriko charged at Sesshomaru's mother with full force and stabbed her blue glowing sword into his tentacles Sesshomaru and Naraku fell slowly to the ground thanks to Kikyo running to try and catch them, she did so quickly and laid them each down.

Kikyo ran up the other priestess and aimed her arrows at the beast inside Sesshomaru's mother's yukata, it looked like in her yukata was hell itself. Kikyo shot a arrow right where the demon was and Midoriko charged plunging her sword right there, into the demon's heart which rested in the depth of her yukata. Her yukata was a portal to hell and it was quickly closing, Kikyo fired a arrow attached to a rope at Midoriko who quickly grabbed ahold of it and was pulled out of hell just before it could shut on her.

Kikyo stood up and smiled at Midoriko "I think it is about time we finished this don't you?"

Midoriko smiled and formed a barrier around them and their mates "I think your right!"

They both closed their eyes and put both hands together letting their index fingers and thumbs point up as if they were both separately chanting a spell. Kikyo closed her eyes her whole body glowing blue as her eyes were all blue with no white or irises …

"Hear the plea of mine the heaven above

Receive this soul judge her to rest

Leave her in heaven or in hell

Let her soul rest forever."

Midoriko chanted a prayer aloud too

"Let her rest in her next life

Let her be better than this

Have her watch over us wherever she goes

Let her learn our joy and feel the same in her next life

In her next life let her remember who she was in this

Only the good and not be curse with the rotten."

Both shot another blue light out and returned to their former selves

Sesshomaru's mother fell to her knees screaming to the top of her lungs making everyone cover their ears and try to escape the sound of her pain causing them pain, even though nearly everyone was outside it could still reach their ears with great intensity. Kikyo and Midoriko opened their eyes to watch the beast die and wither away into dust leaving a blacken jewel shard. Kikyo and Midoriko walked over and picked up the jewel shard together Kikyo on Midoriko's left and they held hands Kikyo's right in Midoriko's right, and the shard in the middle. They walked over to their mates and kneeled and turned the shards blackness to a pure white, they laced their Miko powers with that of the shard and used it to heal their mates using their free hands.

Sesshomaru and Naraku's holes and wounds healed new skin replacing the bloody depths and a healthy color returned along with even breathing. Kikyo and Midoriko opened their eyes, and they let Kagome and Rin returned to their normal selves. Kagome's eye filled with tears and hugged Naraku "Oh Naraku I was so afraid. When I saw yo-you and Sesshomaru…. I … I just felt so lost!"

Rin flung herself into Sesshomaru's awaiting arms that were still a little weak thou he would never show it. "I'm so glad my lords are safe. Are you going to be okay?"

Naraku smirked and hugged Kagome and caressed her cheek seeing tears stain her face "Thanks to the both of you we are alive, so we just need some rest." Sesshomaru nodded and shortly after this everyone began pouring in and Bankostu and Kohaku helped their lords into their rooms and stood guard with several other guards while the ladies stayed and talked to guests a while longer.

XX Sango XX

Sango's fiancé said that they were going to stay a while longer and so he could talk with some other lords, everything he told her went past her ears not listening at all. She couldn't help but feel like maybe she should turn her back, turn a blind eye to all of this. I can't believe the one girl I didn't know was actually my former best friend, she seems to look happier than she did with our group. Kikyo coming out of her body was proof enough but Midoriko was Rin's past incarnation was a rather big surprise. I do want to speak with her as her former friend thou I want to speak with her at least on last time, and who knows we might see each other more and more since my fiancé is Naraku and Sesshomaru's ally.

She smiled seeing her chance Rin was talking with Kanna and Kagome went to the garden and was looking up at the stars, sitting on the ground not caring about her nice yukata. Sango smiled she always did that even when she was part of their old group "Hey Kagome."

Kagome turned around surprised to see the woman that they had an earlier conversation with, she quickly stood up "Oh um who is this Kagome you speak of? Is she at this ball?"

Sango shook her head and smiled "No, I know that your real name is not Natsumi. I know that you are Kagome."

Kagome smiled standing up and narrowing her blood red eyes and took her stance preparing for a fight "So who are you and what do you want here?" Her voice was life threating and cold as both her mates combined "I won't let you hurt my family you know."

Sango blinked several times and smiled a hopeless smile, all she wanted was answers no fight "Oh don't tell me you forgot me? If I slapped Miroku would you remember?" Kagome lowered her stance and her eyes went big and were filled with fear "So why are you here?"

Sango huffed and smiled touching her shoulder "Kagome I'm not here to harm, only to talk." Kagome was scared of seeing Sango she had nearly forgot everything of her past living here with Rin, and her two mates and funny servants that made it easier to forget what she would rather not remember. Now the past was rearing its ugly and vengeful face again, Sango smiled and took her hand off of Kagome's shoulder "So are you really here because you want to?"

Kagome smiled and nodded tears hanging in her eyes her emotions were in over drive again, due to pregnancy and this emotional night she was being apart of. Tonight was great she and Rin were presented as the ladies and as Sesshomaru and Naraku's mates, it made her happy until chaos broke out and they almost died. Now Sango came and what would she do would she report to the rest of the group "Yes, I am here because I wanted to be. Sango I just couldn't stay in the old group anymore, I and Inuyasha we don't make sense and I didn't want to fight anymore."

"So you slept with the enemy?!"

"I love them! Isn't that enough! I wasn't Naraku or Sesshomaru enemy but choice, I was in the group and did whatever our leader Inuyasha did. If he liked someone I did too if he didn't neither did I, but I found Naraku and we talked and we fell in love and mated. I and my mates don't cause you trouble I was even hiding so that none of you would find me and take me back. I just don't want to be taken back."

"I just want to talk is all. And I have been thinking of leaving the group too, and so is Miroku and …"

"You and him are running away together?"

"No."

"Then I don't understand."

"I and Miroku have split, or broken up I guess. We don't feel the spark anymore, and so I took SANGO'S HUBBY offer and will marry him."

"Oh. Well how is Shippo?"

Sango felt a stab through the heart and felt badly for the little kit, which was becoming more and more like Inuyasha everyday ruder, and more stubborn and cold hearted. He was changing and wasn't the same little kit like before.

"Oh Shippo misses you a lot and hangs around Inuyasha a lot even though they fight a lot."

"Same as always."

Sango looked at Kagome's belly and felt sadness and anger, she wished that Kagome lived happily ever after with Inuyasha, and she wished the same for her and Miroku. However this may be the feudal era and have demons, monsters, princes, princesses, priests, and priestesses and the birth place of many fairy tales but not very many happy endings happened in this era if any did. But everyone in this era suffers from something.

"So your pregnant?"

"Oh, yes and I am due in a short time from now."

"So isn't hard being mated to two guys?"

"No, why do you ask. You thinking about it?"

"Oh no I would never, it seems to much stress and all that."

"It's actually lots of happiness, I love them both and there is no jealousy in our relationships at all.

"So… what is it like you know, being with a child?"

"I feel life in me and I know that he is the proof of love, although I'm afraid of the pain."

"So… how do you know it's a boy or who's child it even is?"

"What a silly question. But is supposed to you it's not, if you don't experience firsthand you won't understand. But I will still explain."

"I just wanna know it's not silly."

"Well the child is both of theirs, I and Naraku made this child. But since I am mated to Sesshomaru it makes the child his by adoption you see. They both claimed to protect mine and Rin's children they don't care who the father is, they will protect the child and won't show favorism."

"Kagome won't that be confusing for the children?"

"No. My child will call Naraku dad and will know Sesshomaru as Sesshomaru or will be allowed to call him as my lord or some name they give Sesshomaru. Rin's child will do the same but with Sesshomaru. And as for knowing it's a boy, I skipped by that question earlier sorry. But Sesshomaru could tell, but his scent."

"Oh and Rin's?"

"A boy too."

"Why don't you visit for a while?"

"I couldn't my lord wants to return home."

"Oh. Well you will marry him and nothing will change your mind?"

"Yes."

"Then I can allow you to know something. Kohaku, can you bring me my family scroll?"

Sango looked at Kagome and felt like a pain of guilt hit her soon she saw Kohaku step out of thin air with a scroll "K-Kohaku?"

Kagome smiled and took the scroll with Kohaku by her side "Lady Kagome, you shouldn't be out here with her." Sango felt tears well up and she walked toward Kohaku "Sango I need you to keep a good distance from my lady. I don't trust you with her."

"Kohaku! It's fine, but show more kindness to your elder sister."

"Kohaku? Do you remember me?"

"Yes, of course. But I cannot return to you."

"Because of Kanna?"

"No, I know what Naraku did. But don't you remember who I was in that village? I was the useless little boy, the small fry and the loner. I don't think what Naraku did was right, but he has made amends he has flowers and the graves tended to every few weeks. He also gave me a better life since Kagome, Rin, and Sesshomaru entered our home here, we are all like a family you know."

"Kohaku can you hand Sango the scroll and point her two my ancestors who are in this era?"

"Yes, Sister please read this." He unrolled the scroll and searched for the names he need and then pointed to her the right names. Sango read the names her eyes growing wide and she looked up at Kagome with shock and tears in her eyes "K-Kagome i-I don't understand."

"Sango it is just as it says. You are my relative my ancestor, you have been able to see someone who is from your blood and I have to ask do you accept me? Not only as your past friend but hopefully as your younger relative, I tell you I would love it if you saw my mom she looks a lot like you."

"That does make a difference. I was here to spy and report to Inuyasha, but us demon slayers have one rule that is absolute and is the core of everything we live by and are taught… You never betray your kin. Kohaku I accept you here even if I still don't fully understand same with you Kagome, I will tell Inuyasha nothing."

"Thank you sister."

"Thank you Sango."

They both stood there watching their in the garden watching Sango leave the palace with her fiancé. Kagome and Kohaku dismissed the rest of the guests only to find one suspicious person a man with pink hair and tan skin. He charged at Rin and Kagome saw and used a barrier to block the attack and it deflected onto her attacker, he was quickly caught by Kohaku in no time flat and sent to the dungeon. Everyone else left and went to sleep.

XX Dungeon XX
"Damn it when will we be let go already?!" Koga grabbed his cells bars and yelled with Ginta napping on the three fancy beds they put in there, and Hakku was sitting eating on the nice clean floor. Each day the cell got nicer and nicer it turned into a bigger cell and a fancy furnishing like the palaces guest rooms and a small buffet every day.

Hakku smiled and tossed a pear at his leader "Well why would we want to leave? It's nice here and Kagome comes down once and a while and its away from Ayame you know."

"Who the hell are you?" Koga ignored every word and paid more attention to the man in the cell next to them that had only a bucket and a wet towel as bedding "I'm Naki, I'm afraid I just got in here for no good reason."

Hakku sighed under his breath "You never listen."

"Why what are you in here for?"

"Oh I'm here because I failed to kill Lady Natsumi, Lady Rin, and the two lords."

"You what?!"

Kohaku came down stair in the morning to find only a bloody pulp that remained lifeless in the terrible cell "Koga what did you do?"

"Oh he just was sleep walking and broke his neck… plus some other unrelated wounds."

"You will get some extra gifts tonight, a bigger buffet and a visit."

"Long as it's not Ayame that's one of the only good things about being in here."

"Okay you rest now Koga, you two Ginta and Hakku."

Koga smiled and nodded watching his friends fall asleep and sat on the fluffy bed thinking to himself, and wondering about Kagome. Then smelt a certain scent and looked up 'Crap.'

"KOGA!KOGA! KOOGGAA!"

"Crap."

A red hair wolf demoness with white fur smiled and cut open the cell grabbing Koga and kissing him "No Ayame! No! NOOOO!" Koga woke up in a cold sweat and saw his friends smiling and giggling pointy and whispering at him "It was all a dream."

"Oh Koga." Koga jumped grabbing onto the ceiling "No it wasn't."

Hakku hit Ginta "No Ginta that was just mean, You know how terrified he is of her."

"I'll show you how terrified you should be." Koga said after jumping down and sneaking up behind the two with a shimmer of revenge in his eyes as he punched his flat open hand with a sculpted fist.
