Shippo prayed for his mother everyday at the exact same time. He would pray that she would succeed in what she set out to do. He prayed for her safety. He prayed that he himself would not kill himself worrying over her.

Up in the clouds. The two gods that trained the poor little boys mother watched helplessly. “What are we going to do Hades. I feel somewhat responsible for this-” But Hades cut her off.

“Don’t think like that, its not our fault. Its no one’s fault. This was her destiny and you know it as much as I do. Her pedestal has been sitting there for her the moment she was conceived and in her mothers womb. No one could stop it. She was destined for this. And you know as much as I do what she is destined to do once she is ready, should she accept it.”

“Yes, I know, but I wish that she wasn’t forced into this. You know even if she declined her Godly status when we first told her about it that she would have been kept here in the clouds till she did accept it. She would have been kept from her friends and family only to be taken away from them later.

“Its not fair. We were lucky. When Zeus gathered us and told us of what we were, before time started in reality, we had no choice. Or did you forget what it was like before time? It was a wasteland of hot magma that did not move. Silence and nothingness. This was a blessing to us. But not her, she had a life. She was going to be mated to the one man she truly loves, she had a child and we took it all away from her. Didn’t she go through enough with that bastard demon?! Why couldn’t she have been spared. She had the purest soul in the whole universe! You know it as much as I do that its not fair for her to have to do this!” By the time she finished her little speech she was almost hysterical...

“Get a hold of yourself. You know that its because she has the purest soul that she was chosen. Stories were told of her in the ancient text. You know that once she had all of her training and all of her powers and abilities that she will have to do something that no one should ever be asked to do! You know as well as I that there is nothing to stop it from happening. Yes I know its not fair, but there is nothing that either of us can do about it, and you also know that as well as I do...”

“Yes, I do but its still not fair...”

“Aphrodite its never fair for us Gods. We gave up our lived and mortal souls so that everyone else could be saved. So that we could help them. For us Gods the choices are never easy nor fair...”

“I know... unfortunately... But isn’t there something that we can do for the poor little boy?”

“Maybe,” Hades said as he thought of something. “Maybe I can, yes...”

“What is it?”

Then he waved his hand over the mirror table where they saw everything and everyone, but now it was just poor ‘lil’ Shippo.


Back in the shrine, where Shippo was praying the air started to glow, then all of the sudden there was a gold and magenta pendant. He looked up towards the heavens and smiled, he knew his prayers were not on deaf ears. He picked up the pendant and went back to his room, passing Yukina who was a bit confused. ‘Wasn’t he just depressed?’ She thought as he ran past he with a big smile on his face.

Shippo was back in his room, Genkai was kind enough to give him. He sat on his bed. For him it was huge though, considering he wasn’t exactly the biggest person in the world. It had a dark forest green sheets. He jumped up and parked his tuckus on the bed. In his hand there was the little pendant that just appeared out of nowhere. He inspected it. Found nothing. His hopes were now dashed. All he could think no was that his mother was in some sort of trouble. The moment that thought crossed his mind. The pendant glowed a silver glow. He looked at it. Then it started to open up. He saw the that there was a mirror that looked as if it was full of trapped smoke.

“What is that?” Shippo said as he looked closer into the mirror. He couldn’t figure it out. He didn’t even know how it opened. Then around the mirror, the edge was glowing different colors, but always reverting to a light blue.

“Huh, what is going on, I guess this thing is useless.” He said as he tossed it on the bed and went back to being depressed, he decided to get some tea. He went to the kitchen and saw that Yukina was there. She looked at him like he had grown a second head but he was ignoring it. ‘And they talk about women who have mood swings...’ She thought not being able to figure out what was going on with the poor little fox.




Poor Genkai had just been K.O’d by some unknown force. She opened her eyes and saw that she was in a field. She could not be madder. She looked around there was a field with rolling hills covered in a blanket of flowers and grasses. The field was surrounded by a forest of dark green trees with massive trunks. There was a slight breeze and there were no signs of any type of life.

She took a step forward and instantly heard voices that roared like thunder. She quickly started to look around.

“Who are you?” She demanded in her raspy voice that had been worn out with her yelling over the years.

“We are your piece of mind.”

“We?”

“Yes,” then to figures descended from the heavens on swirling clouds to land a couple of feet away form her.

“Who are you?”

“We are the Gods Aphrodite and Hades.” They said and introduced themselves.

“What do you want?!” She said somewhat aggravated that she was forced to this place.

“We are here to talk to you about Kagome.”

This got her attention. “What about her? She’s not here so leave me alone.” She said quickly defending her grand daughter from these people who could be a threat to her and her son.

“We are not here to harm her or for her. We trained Kagome in her godly ways. We are why she has gone on her quest.”

“YOU! In case you didn’t know, she had a family, a fiancé, a CHILD! You made all of us loose her... how dare you show your faces!”

“This is something that she was destined to do. You know why she was chosen to be a forbidden child. Why of all they kids that that miko and demon could have had that they had her? Because she needed to prove she could over come and that she had the power and kindness to do what she is ultimately destined to do...”

“What is that? Become the goddess of grief and sorrow?!” Genkai screamed wanting to kill the two god in front of her.

“No, she is to be Zeus’s successor...” Hades said to her, Aphrodite not being able to.

“...what did you say?”

“We wish we were lying. But unfortunately we’re not. We do not find it fair, but it is fitting. Someone of the purest soul, someone with boundless kindness, someone with love for every creature, no matter how they look or act, someone like that is sure to be the successor of Zeus, the God of all the Gods. The most powerful creature to ever have existed. We do this not to you but for her. She will experience great joy. She will help all living creatures, she will experience immense power. She will feel what no one else can, the satisfaction that she defends everything and everybody. She is by heart a nurturer. This job, position, is more then fitting. Yes it will take some getting used to but it will be something that she will love.”

“I doubt she’ll love it” Genkai interrupted. “You will be forcing her away from us. From the people she cherishes, the people she would die for and the people that would die for her. Do you really think that she’ll ‘love’ that?”


“...” The Gods had nothing to say, it was true, its something that they both knew, a valid point that they knew would cost them dearly. But of course they were hoping that it would all work itself out.

“Yeah, that’s what I thought. Now please take me back to my grounds, now.” Genkai said furious at the two. ‘How dare they come here and tell me what’s best for Kagome, I am her grandmother and the reason she is alive. If anyone knows what s best for her its not going to be them. Its going to be me...’ She thought as she blinked and when her eyes reopened found herself on the ground back on her property. She returned back to what she was doing, she didn’t want to have to take her anger out on anybody in the shrine. She would cool off. But all she could think about was Shippo, Kagome, Hiei and herself.... How this just screwed with the one person they loved so much.
