Chapter 8

Yoko woke cursing himself for how long he slept. He knew there was no way he could refuse to, but when the grass under him told him that they had been covered up for two days… Yoko looked at his fragile mate seeing her still very much so unconscious. She had a steady, weak heart beat and prayed for her to wake soon and get better. Knowing staying in a human park hearing the children playing their games and that he had to of already been spotted seeing a ball flying over him he stood cradling his mate in his arms and made his way back to the loft.

Getting inside after a long number of jumps up he saw everyone asleep, though all conscious. He sat down gently holding his mate noticing Shio wasn't around and figured Yusuke must have woken for a brief amount of time to tell him to go get food. He opened his eyes again about two hours later hearing the sound of plastic coming down the hall and saw Yusuke wake up with a groan as soon as the door began to open. As Shio put the food away Yusuke sat up against the will of his protesting body and became saddened.

“Kagome…”

Shio looked at his father's sad gaze then to Yoko and sighed. “I'm just glad you're awake.”

Yusuke continued to look on. “That was the fail safe…G no…”

Yoko spoke. “Shio cook food now. Did you question Hiei yet.”

“No. Woke up for about a minute to tell the boy then just now.” He ate some meat. “Once I finish this… I can't stay awake for long. No energy.” He looked up at Yoko, both eating and knew the fox had his priorities. “Do you think that is Hiei.”

Yoko looked at the unconscious body while eating. “I can only feel his conflicted soul inside of him representing his two halves. The entire time I was around Koenma Reitouzoku I only sensed Koenma, even when you killed him. Though the Jagan… Reitouzoku had years in Spirit World where no one would question him to figure out how to use Koenma's abilities, we don't know how long Hiei has been alive, but he's still trying to figure out how to use the Jagan and make sure it doesn't use him, when he was alive.”

Yusuke looked at him as well. “So how can we test him using the Jagan without killing us. Let's say about twenty years Reitouzoku has used it, you knew of Hiei back then how was he like.”

“Not healthy, enraged at a second and massive headaches.”

“How long did it take for him to summon the mortal flame.”

“Just before the dark tournament. We'll have him do that.” Yusuke yawned. “Wake me up when he's up if I can't… And hope Katsumo or Zokusai wakes up before him so that they can tell us what the fuck happened.”

Shio set a bowl of rice and vegetables with some fish next to Yoko, who gave him a look. Shio sighed and went to where Katsumo was, still asleep, and tried sleeping himself.

Yoko scooped some rice with a piece of cooked fish into his hand, chewed it for a long while making sure she didn't have to waist energy on digestion and put it into Kagome's mouth then rubbed on her throat for a while. Once the bowl was near empty he closed his eyes and let sleep take him again.

Zokusai opened his eyes still feeling like shit and smelled meat, even if it was raw fish from Nagasaki, and went to feed himself. He saw the human in his father's eyes and wouldn't have believed it to be his mother if he hadn't seen it for himself. But she was deathly pale, and he hated the smell of humans. Most- Some did clean on a normal basis, but it wasn't that. He could block that out with a little concentration. But the smell of ever coming death… It frightened him, disturbed him and made him want to do anything in his power to make it go away. So he kept his no emotion face on, saw everyone else asleep and that demon in a deep sleep. Something wasn't right about him.

He looked outside at the stars, something his mother had taught him to do, and figured he was asleep for at least seven days. And he still felt like this. He doubted he could go for a ten minute run without tearing something open. As if he had been completely depleted of his energy, which he probably was. He turned hearing something and saw his mother's eyes open and noticed they were blue instead of red, the last time he saw her. Not showing his confusement he spoke not sure if she knew what was going on.

“Mom.”

Kagome wondered why she was awake when she felt almost dead. She made a noise when she registered a voice and looked up wincing seeing Zokusai standing across the room. Breathing hurt. She looked at him then passed out again.

Zokusai turned back around looking outside. It was better that she was asleep, her body was too fragile. Seeing that demon still in a deep sleep he sat down in a half sleep.

Yusuke yawned feeling like shit and saw, still, everyone asleep and figured Shio had left to get food. Knowing that was a good thing he stood, causing Yoko to open his eyes.

“I see you still feel like shit too.”

“Zokusai's awake.”

Yusuke looked at him with his eyes still closed. “And you know I can't tell without any energy in me. Anyway what happened after I got knocked out.”

Zokusai spoke with his eyes closed. “The blue demon cut off my father's arm from his neck to his hip, my brother Katsumo and I fought the two to keep them away from my mother when she let out a scream and everyone stopped fighting. The demons looked confused and cautious, my mother told us to get you both and that demon into the forest and not come back for her and we did so. Katsumo passed out the moment he made it there, I looked on at the fortress at the side where my mother and the demons still were to see…”

Zokusai opened his eyes. “I don't know what it was really. It was a dome or something of energy but I couldn't really sense anything, then there was some other type of energy and I felt like I should flee the area. Shuichi and Shio came quickly, I briefly described what I thought had happened, Nijuu disobeyed my mother a third time and ran off after her once he saw her come out of the fortress and lean against the stone wall. Shuichi yelled at him again to stop, Shio tackled him before he made it to her and knocked him out. I saw Shuichi pick my mother up and heard him growling the entire time back. Then…Some light or something came from my human mother and Shuichi let out a shout, dropped her, she crawled over to my father and there was something… I honestly don't know. Your arm and side were back as well as the hole in Yusuke sealed over and she stopped breathing.” He looked up at his father. “I don't even remember how I got here.”

Yoko spoke. “The first time Nijuu did so was with the Chimera, what was the second.”

Zokusai closed his eyes. “When my mother told us to leave with you and not here he refused to do so and was about to go pick her up when she yelled at him extremely angered. Katsumo had to get him to leave.”

Yoko sighed. “Tell him not to speak for some time or your mother might purify him on purpose and regret it later.”

“What does that mean, purify. Purification, how is Mom, human.”

“The necklace she wears reverts someone to their opposite. A demon to a human a human to a demon. In your mother's case as you know she thought she was human for the first years of her life. During that time she was a miko with purification powers. The necklace on her reverts her to that. Purification is something that kills demons only, it does not work on humans or animals. The Shinto and Budhist religions see demons as evil spirits, mikos are of the Shinto line and can rid evil spirits of demons. Though your mother isn't like most Mikos. They're supposed to be pure, heal and aid humans, destroy demons without a question. Or they are called dark mikos, where their energy is pure evil. Her's is tainted, not pure anything, and for that she can kill anything she wants to with her energy.”

“Dark Mikos can only kill humans.”

“They still can only kill demons with their energy, just that they're not pure good as they are supposed to be and do things they're not supposed to.”

Zokusai would ask someone else later. “And of the necklace.”

“It takes someone with great energy to remove it and currently no one in the room has little if any energy. Do you know if Hiei has woken.”

“He has.”

Yusuke looked at him. “What did he do.”

Zokusai closed his eyes again. “I don't trust him.”

Yusuke smiled at him. “You don't trust many people, and I guess he was never around you two much when you were younger and you wouldn't remember him. He say anything- Yeah he's waking now, I can hardly hold my excitement.”

Hiei spoke opening his eyes. “I'm thrilled to see you as well Yusuke.”

Yusuke smiled at him. “Well take offense all you want and I'm sure you will hot head but I'm not saying another damn thing around you until I know you're you and not Reitouzoku.”

Hiei looked at him after a glance at Yoko not saying anything. “And how do you suppose on doing that Toushin.”

Yusuke sighed. “You got enough of your energy back.”

“How do you suppose on doing that, Toushin.”

Yusuke looked at him. “Summon the mortal flame.”

Hiei raised his left hand up with a dark and light blue combined flame dancing around his entire arm. “Enough.”

Yusuke nodded and Hiei lowered his arm no longer in flames. He saw Zokusai looking at him with pure distrust and ignored him, still. Yusuke spoke again.

“How about you start from the last time you were alive.”

“I pulled myself out of my own grave and stayed hidden in Makai knowing that if I tried contacting anyone Rekai would kill me without a doubt for destroying an entire human city. After a few years I noticed someone tracking me and became even more hidden. When I stopped to finish regrowing my arm a month ago I woke up where you found me now tell me what is going on now.”

Yusuke glared at him. “I don't have to tell you a damn thing deman-“

Yoko cut him off and spoke. “-Ganban is dead as you know, and we believed we killed Reitouzoku as well effectively killing Koenma. Enma is now in charge of Spirit world again but the backlash of him being found after ten years is still tolling on him. Rekai doesn't punish or do anything unless the barrier has fallen, period. There is not a new team of spirit detectives and apparently he is still catching up. When he did return he accidentally signed your name back to life which granted you your life energy again causing you to live. Sesshomaru brought Kagome back to life eight years ago and since about one year ago we've been after the two.”

Hiei knew they were leaving a lot of information out, but figured if they had killed Koenma, because it was still him, and they were mulling around ningenkai just fine, there was a lot of stuff they didn't know. He remained silent analyzing his thoughts when he opened his eyes about a day later to see an exgusted Shuichi enter and look around.

“Hiei. It's nice to see you again. I presume Yusuke's already spoke to you if you're still here.”

“Hn.”

After two weeks in total they were all awake save Kagome. No one felt like doing anything and all were still out of it. Zokusai had a huge distrust with Hiei who ignored it though was worried and rejoiced at the same time in seeing Kagome. Shuichi and Shio entered again with more food, to which Nijuu immediately woke up going to the frigate, tossing some to Katsumo when everyone paused. He turned hearing a faint moan from Kagome. Yusuke spoke eating some rice.

“You know she's not going to want to be around any of us once she wakes.” He laughed once. “Hell when we were walking around with her she looked like she wanted to kill all of us and herself knowing what she was then and before.”

Yoko laid her down on a pillow, stood and ate some food. Yusuke was very right. Being a miko, even if she knew she was a demon, screamed at her to kill them all and she had to fight her instincts once again.

“In the forest her eyes were red, normal. Here they were blue.”

Yoko glared at him. “Why did you decide not to tell me this.”

“Because she was only awake for less than a minute, Father.”

Yoko ignored him knowing he didn't know anything about it. After an hour or so he saw Kagome open her eyes on her back, saw her aurora raise itself slightly then stood with a silent curse word and went to take a shower.

Kagome stood letting the warm water run over her body. She hurt like hell and figured she wouldn't be up to strength for at least another weak at the lowest amount of time and could hide the rest of her pain then. Deciding staying in the shower for too long would only draw unwanted attention to herself in seeing how all attention was unwanted she turned the water off, dried herself off with the towel and put on some of the clothes that were already in there for her and stood in front of the mirror.

She was pist. There was no other way to describe it outside of rage, frustration, sheer anger, agonizing pain mental and physical. She snarled at herself.

`Was that GD fucking close and I couldn't even-`

Everyone in the main room snapped their head to the bathroom hearing a loud shattering sound followed by a slight scent of blood. And Yoko could feel every single thing she was right about now and knew going to her right now would be suicidal.

Kagome looked at herself in what remained of the mirror. The wall only had one sliver that staid up on its own. She closed her eyes briefly and looked at her hand noticing it only slightly bruised and not bleeding. She then looked at the rest of herself seeing a shard in her arm and pulled it out, put some pressure on it for about a minute. When it stopped bleeding she cleaned up the mess and went back to looking at herself in the sliver of a mirror. She sat on the toilet seat for a while to concentrate and regain some composure, but up a mental barrier, devoid herself, and walked out and sat directly next to Yoko. He raised a brow knowing he wouldn't get a response.

`Do you sit next to me because of something I can't even think of, or because…'

She looked at Yusuke. “Take this off now Toushin.”

Yusuke looked at her. `She shouldn't have blue eyes. Something's wrong with her energy.' “I've been trying up to about two hours ago. I, can't.”

Kagome sighed. “Fine.”

Yusuke smirked. “You really are more talkative when you're human.”

Yoko looked at her. Something was very wrong, that obvisualy only she knew of. He could tell she didn't want to be here and she was pist at something else as well, and that she had put up all of her barrier again.

“What's wrong.”

“Many things when can we find Sesshomaru dono.”

Yoko spoke before Yusuke could. “We leave tomorrow.”

Kagome blinked slightly confused. `He knows I can't walk that far and that I'm still injured so why the hell is he agreeing to this?' “Fine.”

Zokusai growled to his father. “Nijuu's coming back.”

Shuichi spoke not sure if Nijuu in the room was a good or bad thing. “He's still in Nagasaki, though with informants now adays it very well could be one of his sons.”

Yusuke growled. “Everyone is in this city and that is not a good thing. And too many people are lying to us.”

Shio looked at his father, Kagome, his father again, Kagome, Hiei who glared at him for looking around so much, back to Kagome, then to Katsumo, himself then sat down. Nijuu came in through the window, noticed his mother awake and sulked some from the warnings everyone had given him. When morning came the group went by roof top to where Shuichi had instructed them finding a large building, longer than any they had seen before, and went in through an open window knowing it to be very uncharastic for a demon to do so. Kagome getting out of Yoko's hold, they walked, with the rest staying in the room, to where she led him.

“It's Maramaru.”

Yoko followed seeing her pause briefly then enter a room without a knock. He saw a normal bedroom in traditional style but found one thing out of place with it. Maramaru stood without a shirt on wearing business pants with a inu woman kneeling wrapping wounds on him.

“Speak wench.”

“Master Sesshomaru told me to find him once I used this.”

Maramaru growled at her. “He is not here nor will I take that necklace off for you leave.”

Yoko spoke. “No because someone attacked you thinking you were your father who.”

Maramaru turned to him eyes tingeing red. “Fox do not presume that you out strength me even now and I take orders from no one but him.”

Kagome still spoke with her head bowed. “Maramaru sama I only wish to find your father. Any assistance would be most humbly appreciated, as well, you could commission myself to find who is after your father to spare yourself the time though much would not be taken.”

Maramaru growled some letting the inu woman continue. “After the nightmare demon came and left I found myself against some human hybrid. The nightmare demon was looking for me, hours later they hybrid was for my Father and yes you too would be wounded by this human. He called himself Hiroth leave.”

Kagome bowed and walked out. `What type of human could harm anything of Sesshomaru's? The only one who had ever harmed Maramaru's father as a human was…Me, when I had no doubts I was accepted and happy, human. But that was all a lie. And I know for a fact all of his sons are more powerful than Yusuke I was there when they were being trainned, so how?'

Yoko wondered what she was thinking about. “What's on your mind Kagome.”

`That you don't call me Kagome normally.' “And if this doesn't work out we find him, her and do this the longer way. That's exactly what I think Chenja said before…”

Yoko stopped her in the hall knowing no one could hear them. “The physics were the first plan, the tama the second. This is their third. And doing it the long way means it is just another extension to the second plan.” He stood across from her and looked away. “I don't know who her and him would be if they aren't you for one of them.”

“Why Sesshomaru. Akumu probably put him into a nightmare to find out where he was and left.”

“As I thought as well…His only weakness would be his mate, why no one save you and I and perhaps Zokusai have seen her and lived. I doubt even Maramaru could fake it if his mother was kidnapped…He revived you, maybe the two demons want someone revived or plan to use Reitouzoku if he really is dead with him.” He looked at her. “Why did you set next to me after the shower.”

She still looked to the side. “When I'm confused and don't want to be around anyone at all being around you helps me think and keeps me… Calmer. I just hate this necklace.”

“I figured we'd be directed to Sesshomaru in no less than two days. Are you going to be fit to travel.”

She sighed. “I'll need a bow.”

“How many offspring does Sesshomaru have.”

“Two from one woman and three from his mate…And one other. The two from the woman died naturally about one hundred years ago. Maramaru is the oldest from his current mate, Touimaru when in the office in Osaka years ago is his youngest. The middle one is also confined to offices until he proves himself. The other one I haven't seen in a while.”

“It's not like him to bed a woman and have her pregnant.”

“The first woman…Was human, and the half demons died from age and he did love her. Shortly after she died he mated the inu you saw. I only saw his other son once, and he's full blood.” She looked at him. “And around your age.” She continued to look at him for a few minutes then walked off. “We should get going if we're hunting someone and we know nothing of him in Makai.”

Yoko spoke walking next to her. “What makes you think he's in Makai.”

“Once his sons want to prove themselves to master Sesshomaru they're not allowed to go to makai or rekai, and as pist as Maramaru sama was he wouldn't have stopped unless he went somewhere he couldn't go. And going to Rekai now would be stupid.”

Zokusai looked on not knowing what to think. The idea… Being around his mother now just didn't seem right. Normally he would grab the chance to walk next to his mother silently on the rare occasion she spoke to him, or anyone. When she might ask him and not her mate to go somewhere. But now… It wasn't because she was human, miko. He really didn't know.

`And I don't want to ask either. I know I should because my mother isn't physic. Apparently that demon is with that eye he has and apparent long time friend ally or not I will kill him the moment he enters my mind breaking through my barriers…but my mother…' He looked at her ahead letting Nijuu speak to her with Shio on the other side ignoring them. `Why can't I? And why are we just wondering around if we don't know where this Hiroth is that attacked one of Sesshomaru's sons? What is really going on.'

Hiei jumped next to Yusuke speaking walking ahead. “There's nothing.”

Yusuke smiled. “Guess you scouting ahead was a big help then.”

“Hn.”

“Right right I know okay? They're not really after us now since they're both for Sesshomaru for some reason we either wish isn't true or we don't know of.” He looked up some at Yoko. “We are heading to his house here, correct?”

“Makai was formed for the demons and Rekai was always present. Sesshomaru's original land was always in Ningenkai and he never left according to the rules. He doesn't have a house here.”

“Soo…”

“He has another son that has land in Makai. We're going to ask where.”

“Who.”

“A demon blacksmith that also can forge a sword for Hiei in seeing how his is lost.” He smiled at him. “He's an old friend of Kagome's.”

Yusuke smiled. “So it is good that she still has that thing on her then otherwise he'd kill her. Where's he at?”

“Mount Totosai, it's not much further.” He nodded. “His hut, if it is still there, is on the side of that smaller mountain in the distance.”

Kagome looked at the large hut seeing it largely unchanged from the last time she had gone up the mountain with the half dog demon, save the wheels on the bottom for easy moving. Though she doubted as much as the hut should weigh, it could move with such ease. She entered the hut seeing the inside with carpet, modern appliances, and -

Shio had his mouth open. “A TV in makai.”

Yusuke chuckled some. “Maybe you can use cell phones in makai then.”

Kagome looked at the aged demon, sleeping sitting up with a bubble coming from his mouth. The rest opted to stay outside so not to overwhelm him.

“Totosai…” She knelt in front of him and pushed him slightly. “Totosai.”

“…I don't want to buy the jar opener come back….Later….”

Kagome pushed him much harder causing his head to hit on a `wall'. “Totosai wake up now.” She was annoyed. “Old man wa-“

“-ah!” The demon quickly sat up looking around. “What the-“ He blinked, looking around seeing two demons who he could recognize and a human… “A fledgling and looks like one of Raizen's kids from the looks of it.”

Yusuke looked at him. “How many kids does my old man have.”

“Had. When I was, oh, only nine hundred or so he had one, but the boy was arrogant and got himself killed before I was one thousand. And now apparently you.” He stretched. “How is the ole battle demon doing anyway?”

Yusuke growled. “Don't know don't care.”

“So you're a bastard then! Great!” he laughed some. “Should go see him though, and tell him Totosai said hello. If you've never even seen your own father and you know he is alive should do so, be good for ya boy…” He looked at Kagome. “Those two I don't know but you look…Familiar…”

“I'm K-“

“-You're Inuyasha's woman now I remember!...Wait you're human.”

“You have working eyes old man and I am not-“

“-wait wait now I remember. Myoga had told me that you were from a different time. Guess this one then. What brings you here? I see you still keep odd travel company.”

Yusuke spoke. “There are more outside but we didn't want to all invade your home. How old are you if you know my old man and he's one of the oldest demons alive.”

“Me? I'm about two thousand or so. After a while the years start to blend together. Raizen's the only one I know who's older than myself, though I haven't seen him in about a thousand years or so, so I guess that would be time for you to be born somehow-“

Kagome cut him off annoyed. “-Totosai I have two things to ask of you.”

He nodded. “Of course of course. Anything for the woman of the son of the great dog demon-“

Kagome closed her eyes. “-Do not call me-“

“-So what can I do for ya?” He pushed a button on the remote. “Want to watch some TV there little boy?”

Kagome opened her eyes and looked at him. “I need some information and a sword crafted for someone I travel with.”

Totosai gave her a look. “You don't sound like you like this person you're doing a favor for.”

“I don't.”

He nodded. “You always were honest. Call it done. What type of demon is he since you don't…” He looked at her closer. “You don't never mind?”

“He's a fire Apparition.”

“Apparition eh? Well I won't have to tone myself down then. What's the other thing you need of me?”

“When's the last time you've seen Sesshomaru sama.”

“Maybe about fifty years ago. I get him and his eldest son confused all of the time even though I've seen them various times and have known Sesshomaru longer. That little thing with Tokijiin is behind us, not by my choice, but it is.” He stood making his way back into the hut. “Infact, I saw his son not too long ago.”

Kagome followed him seeing his old work room intact separate from his modern things. “Which one.”

“Not the pups he has, the other one…Ah I forget the name. But he was by here about a week ago or so…Or yesterday. My age it all seems the same. He wanted to know if I had crafted an extra long sword for a human, and I said the only thing I had ever crafted for a human was for you and he left.”

Kagome watched as he blew fire into a pit dropping black metal into it. “Do you know where he went.”

“I haven't seen or heard of him in Japan for some centuries but if he's here I doubt he'd leave so soon. He has a place…Heck even if his father doesn't claim Makai the west is still dog territory. But so is the North. Somewhere in there, and it is his father's. Towards the center I believe, can't miss it as arrogant as that dog is. About all I know.” He turned around seeing Kagome and the two leaving. “Oh Inuyasha's wench wait!” He saw her walking back towards him and started speaking. “Not that important for a whisper I just wanted to say-“

Kagome put her hand around his neck and before she could burn him any further Yusuke pulled her off of him and spoke. “-Awh you know women and PMS. That's all.”

Totosai rubbed his neck. “Power's have increased.”

“I am not of anything to that dead half demon call me such again and I will kill you.”

“PMS indeed. I just wanted to say that your friends' weapon should be done in a two days. Not much time is needed since it is for him and I won't have to cool it.”

Yusuke said their thanks and left with Kagome before she could correct him about Hiei not being her friend at all. When outside he spoke to their group that wasn't far from the hut. Kagome distanced herself hoping to be out of hearing range for at least the non kitsune, knowing going that far Yoko would just come after her. She sat on a boulder eating a fish from a small shallow of water wrapped in some grass. Makai suchi. She saw Shuichi eating with the rest and had a sense and turned around looking up to see Yoko behind her.

“Apparently he doesn't know you killed Inuyasha.” Kagome looked into his eyes. “Mate why are you troubling yourself with something that you don't have to burden alone.”

Kagome shook her head. “It's gone now.”

Yoko stood in front of her, taller than her sitting on the large boulder and kissed her. “If there are so many larger things in your life that cause you to worry, bother, have pain,” he kissed her for a while then broke apart and smirked smelling her arousal. Something she kept extremely hidden from him as demon but couldn't control now. “don't let the little ones hurt you.”

Kagome let out a loud moan. “You know no bounds do you.”

Yoko smiled nipping at her shoulder blade very lightly as he took her out of her clothes picking her up. “You are my mate no matter what you look like. Your body isn't complaining nor are you so why should I?”

Kagome kissed him tugging on his clothing. “Sex craved kitsune.”

Yoko smirked letting her sit on him. “You know you love me.”

She sat up, let out a moan, then tossed her head back. “I know.”

Yusuke turned seeing Nijuu whimper some and Zokusai growl then smirked at Shuichi. “Guess they're fuc-“

“-Yusuke.”

Yoko smirked once she woke up, for the third time in a day. He started to play with her nipples with three of his fingers keeping her moaning as one hand slipped below.

“I forgot to tell you the first, times. Your miko powers buzz softly when you're at your, peak.” Kagome moaned, almost mewing from what he was doing with his left hand. He smiled. `You can't think straight when I do this to you, and it's not just when you're demon.' He continued with his ways. “You'll have your necklace off soon, and with hope the dog will keep it and never around your lovely neck ever again.”

Kagome moaned as he put her onto her knees. “G…Yoko.”

He smirked. “I can still tell you time again love I'm not a god,” he closed his eyes for a moment not missing a beat. “though the complement.”

When Yoko was finished he held her on his back letting her lay on him. He stroked through her hair, both resting in silence. He wondered ho-

“-Inuyasha's woman!...Inuyasha's woman were are ya already gave the sword to your friend I forgot to tell you something!”

Kagome kept her eyes closed. He was lucky she was currently very naked ontop of a nude kitsune. She didn't want to kill anyone who was currently naked, that demon…

“-Inuyasha-….Oh Kagome! Don't make an old man come up after you.”

Kagome sighed putting clothing on. She went down the mountain where they were rutting at seeing Totosai in mist of the rest of the group. He turned to her and nodded.

“Nothing huge. Just thought that you might like to have this here. I don't know what happened to him though I suppose he died the same as the rest in your group.” He put something into her hands. “Shippo left it here the last time your group came up to visit an old man.”

Kagome looked at the small top in her hands and smiled softly. “Thank you very much.”

“That got you calm. Could have sworn you had an aurora for a moment like an angry demon woman interrupted from rutting. But yeah. He called you Momma right?” He saw her nod still looking at it. “Didn't think you were old enough to have kids back then but shows you what I know. Was a good kid.” He turned to where Yusuke stood, waiting. “Hey Raizen's boy!”

Yusuke went up to him. “Yes Totosai.”

“Take my advice will yeah? Should really go see your Father. His domain that he claims is everything that Sesshomaru doesn't claim. They got into a large battle about a thousand years ago…Or maybe it was Raizen and the great dog general- Actually I don't really know the date, before that foxes' time though, why it surprises me. Inuyoukai and your kind are kinda sworn enemies since then. Be careful. Wouldn't want to see an old acquiantce's child dead before they met up.” He looked over to his two sons. “Then you have those two. Your younger one looks like he'll never shape up! Maybe the older.” He laughed some. “Should find your mate and make another!”

Yusuke kept himself in check and wouldn't harm the old man. “Do you know where Raizen is at now?”

“He's at his home. It's in the east. When you're near you'll sense it, close to the shore. Some say there's a spell on it, I've never been there.” He waved. “Take care! Come back and watch some more television some time!”
