The Start of the Journey/And a Preview of the Demon Side

~ Kagome ~

I watched as Sesshomaru walked in front of me. He walked with the grace of an angel. A very deadly beautiful angel one that I knew I had to guard my heart from. Makura was right, love was not logic, but still I could not allow myself to love him.

I knew then that my heart was in danger. How was it possible that I was falling in love with Sesshomaru but lusted after Reishi? I could feel him near me now, watching, waiting. In a way, my heart wished to go to him, to find the joy my body so craved but then my heart is torn to also be with Sesshomaru, to turn his cold heart warm, to have his body wrapped in a warm embrace with mine.

~ Sesshomaru ~

I could feel her warm gaze on my back. I wanted to turn and ask the Miko what the hell was she staring at but I kept this to myself knowing I would eventually find out anyway. My thoughts then turned to the dark one that was walking not too far behind the Miko. I could feel strong power come from her but yet that power was mixed with the purity of a Miko. How was that possible if she was a full dark one? I do not like not knowing and I find myself as of late, being in that position a lot lately, I thought to myself. That was when my I caught a scent on the wind. The scent of blood. The scent of my hanyou brother.

I did not bother to hurry but the dark one must have caught the scent as well because she quickly ran ahead of me. I would have to teach her the respect a servant should have for ones master, I thought once again.

~ Kagome ~

I watched Makura run ahead of me. I don't know what made me decide to follow her but something told me it was of vast importance to follow her. As I ran, I picked up the presence of a jewel shard not one but many. I ran past Sesshomaru and heard his growl but I could not stop. Something deep inside made me realize I had to hurry.

The sight my eyes came upon made my eyes tear up. The site of Inuyasha lying on the ground his cloths torn and bloody. How could anyone still be alive even with the healing abilities Inuyasha possessed? I thought to myself. That was when I noticed the huge creature that was standing over him with blood dripping from its huge yellow fangs. I watched as Makura ran towards the creature. It turned its huge blood filled eyes toward the young youkai. I screamed to warn her because I realized the presence of the jewel shards was coming from various parts of this demon body. I knew now that Naraku must have sent this vile being.

"Makura, watch out! It has jewel shards which gives it extra power!"

As I screamed these words, I watched her as she jumped through the air and pulled a dark blue shield around her body but I knew that would not be enough. I watched the creatures claws slice through her shield as if it were made of nothing but paper. I heard her scream as his claws made contact. I started to run toward her. Even though I had not known her long, I felt a bond with her. As I started to run I felt a hand land on my shoulder. I turned my dark eyes to those of Sesshomaru.

"I will help them. Stay here."

Before I had time to utter a single word, I watched Sesshomaru enter the battle with an agile grace that would ravel a cat. Sesshomaru pulled his sword and sliced neatly through the creatures left arm. I watched in amazement as I realized the arm was still intact. That must be why Inuyasha could not harm the creature, it could not be hurt. I could tell by the way Sesshomaru pulled back ever so slightly, that he had also come to this same conclusion. I turned my eyes towards Inuyasha and realized that Makura had made her way to him. I smiled, realizing Inuyasha might have finally found someone that could erase the pain of his past. Even though it saddened me, I realized that we had never been meant to be together. It was just not fates plan.

My eyes where quickly brought back to Sesshomaru when I heard his grunt of pain. The creature had somehow managed to thrust his deadly claws through Sesshomaru armor. I felt the fear race through me, I started to reach back and pull an arrow from my pack. That was when I noticed how my nails had grown. I felt the adrenaline start to pump through my body. That was when I heard his voice, Reishi's dark soothing voice.

"Can you feel me Kagome? Can you feel my blood begging to be realized inside you? Allow me to give you aid, my darling, when you need it most. Allow my blood to take over but I must admit it will cost you. Once you allow my blood to take over once, it will be as if you are part dark one, it will be able to take over when it wishes."

"No, I can't!"

"But you must, your friends need you?"

I knew he was right as my eyes turned to Sesshomaru, I knew even with his strength he was growing weak under this creatures assault. I felt my resistance fall and his blood start to flow hotter and stronger through my veins.

~ Sesshomaru ~

I was not one to ever admit defeat but I knew this creature was at the present moment winning this battle. I pulled back to charge once again that was when I realized Kagome was no longer standing where I had left her.

I turned my golden eyes for only a moment but that moment was long enough to give the creature the advantage it needed to slice once again through my armor. I felt my blood run slowly down my chest as I landed hard on the ground.

I knew the creature was now standing over my hurt body. I tried to pull off of the battle ridden ground. But my body was too weak as I watched the creature lower his claws for the fallen blow. I would not close my eyes. I would not show this creature fear. But at the last second, a clawed hand grabbed that of the vile being. I heard the bones crunch as the creature went flying backwards.

That was when my eyes landed on the female youkai that was at the very moment slicing into the creature's chest. I watched her pull a dark jewel shard from the creature chest as I heard its howl of rage. That was when I noticed the jewel shard go from a dark black to a bright pink in her small hands.

My eyes widened as I realized I was now staring at a transformed Kagome, but how? I then realized she must have allowed his blood to take over in order to help us. My eyes once again fell on her. She was a very beautiful youkai with long black hair that seemed to have grown longer. Her body had also seemed to have become firmer and better shaped. As she turned, I caught the color of her eyes and if I had been anyone else, I would have gasped. Her eyes were the color of the sea as the moon shines down upon it.

I watched her raise her clawed hand and slice through the creature arm and pull yet another jewel from the vile being. But this time the jewel shard did not change all the way back to its pure color. I realized then that the demon side must have been starting to out weight the Miko side to her. I could not allow her to forget who she was because if she forgot she might never change back.

I pulled my still weak body from the ground and start to walk toward her. As I pulled my body from the ground, I watched her sink her fangs into the demon's neck. I heard her growl of pleasure and I found my body responding but I knew this was not the Miko I knew and I would not allow myself to use her in that way. I had more honor than that. I could smell the creature's death, the demon Miko must have smelt it as well because she drew away and dropped the pitiful creature on the cold hard ground.

I felt her eyes turn to me but then shift past me. That was when I detected the presence of another. The presence of my third brother. I growled a warning and stepped between them but the Miko's new speed was a slight surprise as I found her standing in front of him and her back was now turned toward me.

I watched her hands rise as if to slide around his neck but instead I watched her claws slide across his cheek pulling blood away. I watched her slide her tongue across her nails and drink his blood but as she started to slide her hands back up toward his still bleeding cheek, I watched my brother do the first honorable thing I had ever seen him do. He grasped her hands in his.

"Kagome, you would hate me if I took you now. This is your demon side asking me to mate you but I can not, at least not yet. You must turn back, your demon side is no longer needed."

I watched as Kagome seemed to slide out of her trance. Her eyes turned back to their normal dark color, her nails once again turned back to their short lengths.

"What have I done?" I heard her whisper as she fell into my brother's arms.
