Kagome sniffed, trying very hard to hold in her tears, to be strong. She clutched the sword close to her and the beads. She held her eyes closed tight., she would stop crying; she had to. When Kagome opened her eyes, she saw Sesshomaru standing near her looking out the wind blowing his long white hair. Thoughts came to her. She was not the only one who lost people; the only person he had was Jaken his little Rin was gone. Kagome had stopped crying and was just watching him, wondering what he was thinking. He turned to her, he didn't blink and she didn't budge. He turned his body to her and walked to the tree, and looked up at her; she down at him.

"What?" He said in his deep voice Kagome took in air. She didn't even know she was holding it in. She looked down at the sword "Can you still not touch it?"

"Is that truly what is on your mind, Miko?"

Kagome blinked "Um," His eyes stared her eyes down. "Do you miss her?" She asked.

He looked away. "Indeed, I miss my ward."

He had just admitted that he missed a human, "But that is not important now."

"How do you deal with it, I mean the thought of her gone?" It was a bad question, but she asked it anyway. He looked up at her again. "Miko," He stopped, and then spoke again, "I will have another ward one day; demons do not dwell on the past."

Demons, she was not a demon. "Wish I were a demon then," Kagome whispered.

"Be not a fool, Miko,"

She gave him an angry look; he didn't care. "Hey, Sesshomaru?" Something hit her. "What is it now, Miko?"

"You said you plan on having another ward,"

He looked away again "A child of my own,"

A child? "But Sesshomaru, there are no more demons around in less. I'm missing something,"

He looked at her "You are correct."

Kagome hung the sword on the branch and placed the necklace around her neck; she grabbed the branch and swung out of the tree. She ducked under the branch and was now standing in front of him. "Sesshomaru?" She said his name confused. "Does, does that mean-

"I will breed with a human."

She was shocked; he was looking away again; she knew he had to swallow A LOT of pride. She bit her lip. She wanted to ask another question: "Sesshomaru,"

"Woman, you are wearing out my name."

She smiled. "Why didn't you mate a female demon?"

"At the time, this Sesshomaru had other matters to tend to,"

"Well, do you have someone in mind?"

He looked back at her, silent for a moment. "No."

"Why?" She asked.

"Why what Miko?"

"Why have a child now? I, um, I mean," She wanted to say, you don't have a kingdom. This and that, but she didn't dare. "I am the last demon on the earth, woman."

He was right, and she knew that. Kagome sighed and looked away at the sky, as did he. Something they both missed.

"You are the last Miko," He said, still looking at the sky.

"And you are the last demon," It really settled in both of them, the meaning behind that.

Something they both missed, a time and place they both missed.

They can miss the past, and the magic it used to hold, they could miss what they both were.
