Chapter 12- Aftermath

Sam woke up in Sesshomaru's bed, alone and confused. She could hear a keening wail in her head, and it wouldn't go away. It kept saying, "He left us. He doesn't want us. Why?" She felt heart sore and sick. She could smell him all over her, she could still feel the soreness from their mating.

She got up and showered, wrapped in a towel, she headed to her room. Kohana found her in the hall, just as she was opening the door. He couldn't believe his eyes, his mouth dropped open. He reached out and grabbed her chin, studying her face and smiling. His eyes widened more when he noticed her mark. He was startled when she pulled away from him, and went in her room, closing the door in his face.

She dressed and rang for a servant. Sending for Nikki and Chumani, she started packing. A few moments later and they arrived at her door. Sam looked at the servant and said, "Get me a car." the servant looked nervous, but nodded and left. She looked at her sisters, but, didn't notice their stares.

"I'm leaving. The threat is gone, and it's no longer necessary that I remain here. Tell Kohana that he knows where I go, and not to communicate with me. I will not answer", she said.

Nikki poked Chumani in the ribs. Chumani said, "Sam, have you looked in the mirror?"

Sam looked at Chumani like she had lost her mind. "What do you mean?", she asked. Chumani turned her to face the mirror.

Sam started. Overnight she had grown fangs and had developed two dark brown stripes on her face. Her ears changed and she just noticed that she had grown claws. "Oh, god! What in the hell happened.", she breathed. She looked like a youkai, not hanyou, but youkai. She walked over and sat on the bed, breathing deeply. She noticed the increased sensitivity in her nose.

"That's what I'm hearing, my inner demon. It's mourning Sesshomaru leaving us. Well, you can cry for him, I won't.", she thought. Then she sensed something else, two something’s, small and inside her!

"They are upset.", she thought. Thinking of the pups growing inside her, she sent all her love to them and they quieted. She touched her belly and looked at Nikki. "Come home with me, now. Leave Jeremy with Kohana. I have need of my sister.", she said, giving her a beautiful smile.

Understanding dawned in Nikki's eyes and she nodded, rising to leave. "Pack light, Nikki. We travel fast and hard.", Sam said. As she opened the door, Inuyasha was standing there. Kagome a little behind him.

Inuyasha and Kagome were both stunned at the transformation. They had never heard of a human becoming demon after mating. He shook his head, as if to clear it and said, "Sam, I hear you are leaving?"

"Yes.", she sighed, "I am. The threat is gone. It's no longer required that I stay." She gave him a cold look.

Inuyasha felt he should try, he looked at her pointedly and said, "Don't you think you should stay?'

She held her head high and said, "Why stay when I'm obviously not wanted? Did you think I would stay to subject my pups to a father who doesn't want them? He didn't request I stay, did he? " He shook his head slowly.

"Will you try to stop me, Inuyasha? Don't forget who I am, and with my new power, I'm sure to be a formidable foe.", she sneered at him. Kagome gasped at her obvious threat.

"Where will you go? Sesshomaru will find you when he wants his pups.", Kagome warned her.

Sam laughed at her. "He'll not find me or his pups. No one knows where I go. There be no paper trail, and I can cover scent. Tell him I said Good Luck and be prepared to fight for them, I won't give them up easy."

"I understand, I just wish you would reconsider. What about the pups, they won't know their father. They'll need male and female guidance.", she tried a different tact.

Sam had an answer for that as well, "I'm sure their uncle will be more than happy to provide them with the male guidance they require."

Kagome could sense Sam losing her patience, sadly she shook her head at Inuyasha. "Will you at least send a picture, so I could see them?", Kagome asked her.

Sam could feel the sadness emitting from her and said, "Yes, I will send one. When they are born. You must promise not to let Sesshomaru see." Kagome nodded. Suddenly, Sam touched Kagome's stomach, "We are due about the same time, Huh?", she asked.

Kagome gave her a smile and hugged her. "They could have grown up together.", she said. Sam gave her a small, sad smile and turned away.

Kohana and Jeremy met Sam and Nikki by the car. Sam hugged them and told Jeremy, "Listen to your uncle. He'll bring you to us soon." Jeremy nodded and Sam noticed the new way that he held himself.

They got into the car, had the driver drop them off in downtown Tokyo and promptly disappeared off the face of the earth.

Three weeks later, Kohana and his family with Jeremy in tow, also disappeared from downtown Tokyo, not to be heard from for several months.

**************One month later*****************

Lord Sesshomaru strode into his home. He went looking for Sam, expecting to find her in his rooms. He rang for Jaken, he entered the room bowing before him. "Where is my mate?", he demanded.

"Yourrrrrrrrrrrrr mate, my Lord?", the little toad demon asked, nervously.

"Yes, you twit! MY MATE!', he roared, "Where is she?"

"My Lord, She left the day after you. She left with her sister, and three weeks later the others followed.", She didn't say where she was going.

Jaken went flying across the room, "Why did you let her leave? She carries my pups, you imbecile.", he said.

He picked up the phone and spoke rapidly, "Find my mate, now! I don't care how you do it, just do it."

Inuyasha walked in catching the last of the conversation. He leaned against the doorjamb and said, "Sam said to tell you good luck finding her. She also, said to be prepared to fight for them, if you do find her. You're going to need all the luck you can get, she's different."

Sesshomaru spun to face him, "What do you mean?', he snarled.

Inuyasha shrugged, "She seems to have become a demon. She has markings and all." Sesshomaru's eyes widened. "If you would've hung around you would know all this.", he sighed.

"Kagome did some research and all she came up with was vague references to youkai dying and leaving a part of themselves behind. These pieces can form into a being of strong youkai influence.", he paused, for added effect.

"Now I'll tell you what I saw the day of the battle. That wolf jumped in front of Sam, taking an arrow meant for her. She had been wounded by Shun and the wolf landed on top of it. He bleed all over her, and their blood mixed. Later, I saw her eyes go red and she grew fangs and claws. I didn't get to tell you at the time. You were too preoccupied, chasing down said female.", he continued.

Sesshomaru was stunned. He returns home, his mate gone, and his brother telling him that she had turned into a demon. To be honest, he really didn't expect her to be here. He knew he would have to track her down, but he would find her. His inner demon was livid, "Look what you've done. Now I will miss out on watching her belly grow heavy with our pups. Stubborn fool."

"This Sesshomaru will find her within a week, then she will be at our side. You will miss out on nothing.", he told his inner demon.
