Chapter 5

A man stood in the center of Overtoun Bridge staring off to the side. His eyes focused on something or someone that no one else could see. A pitiful whine escaped his throat as he raised his hand to reach out. His foot inched forward to the ledge.

Sesshomaru closed his eyes to the magic and took a deep breath. Logically he knew that this was a lie an illusion. She was calling out to him and his beast again. A bell like laughter floated in the air along with a sweet flowery scent. His skin rippled and he fought the need to change into his other form dashing to her side.

“Lord Sesshomaru! Rin has missed you.” The apparition smiled. His other foot moved forward. The ghostly girl's smile grew broader knowing that he would be hers soon.

A harsh yank of his arm caused Sesshomaru to snarl and spin around.

“It is not her Sesshomaru.” Ayame said trying to get through to her mate

Sesshomaru snarled low showing his fang and wrenching his arm away.

“Lord Sesshomaru, Rin has picked you some flower.” The girl said regaining his attention. Sesshomaru whipped his head back to the girl and whined once more.

This time Ayame bit into his arm making him turn his head once.

“She is dead. You must remember the pain and let her go or that….thing will always have control of you.” Ayame said pulling the tenseiga from behind her back.”

“I…” His form shimmered slightly.

“Lord Sesshomaru hurry or we will be late.” The girl said with a shrill edge.

Sesshomaru frowned and looked to the tenseiga. In a swift movement he snatched the sword and sliced through the image of a little girl that had left this world long ago.

“My Rin followed me. Never would she have demanded anything from me.” Sesshomaru said falling to his knees onto the hard cold bridge. Ayame kneeled beside her mate and hugged him. Silver hair hid his face, but Ayame could feel a slight trembling in form.

“Jeez, who died?” Kishi asked as he walked onto the bridge finding his parents.

“Kishi honey, I love you, but your timing sucks.” Ayame groused.

“Sorry mom.” Kishi mumbled and kicked at a rock like scolded child.

Sesshomaru stood and helped his mate to her feet.

“Where have you been?” asked Sesshomaru back to his normal cool self.

“Oh, I ran into the delivery guy and got the package.” Kishi said holding the package.

“Gimme, gimme, gimme.” Ayame said snatching it from her son like a greedy child on Christmas. She tore through the paper and box in a swipe of a claw. Lifting out the necklace and quickly handing it to her mate. Sesshomaru focused his powers and gave a throaty command. The jewel glowed and shot into the air. In the next minute an embracing couple appeared.

Kishi coughed and watched as the couple quickly jumped apart. The men all cringed when the women let out a high pitched squeal. Kagome and Ayame ran to each other and hugged while jumping up and down excitedly. Kagome stepped out of the hug to take a better look at her friend.

“My gods Ayame you look exactly the same as when I last saw you.

Ayame preened under the compliment.

“I guess that means that mom has always had wide birthing hips” Kishi whispered under his breath. His father popped him in the back of the head as Ayame turned to glare.

“What?” Kagome asked baffled by the happenings.

“My son tends to put his foot in his mouth.” Ayame replied.

Kagome looked at the young man “Oh my, he is the spitting image you. Well except for those eyes. That is all Lord Sesshomaru.” Kagome smiled at the man.

Kishi smiled and moved taking Kagome's hand. “I am called Kishi, but you can call…”

“She will not call you anything except an ambulance if you do not let her go.” Koga snarled cutting Kishi off and pulling Kagome into his arms.

Kagome and Ayame both laughed thinking back to days long past.

“Is that some kind of wolf thing?” Kagome asked Ayame.

“I think it is just a guy thing.” Ayame said taking her friend's hand and walking towards the sparkly portal that led to the other side.

Sesshomaru watched as both Kishi and Koga growled at each. Kagome may have thought that his son was like the wolves, but Sesshomaru could see both his father and brother in the boy. It was why he had started training the boy. It was in hopes that he would not be as irrational as most men in his family. He had been wrong.

His son loved to fight, often spoke without thinking and jumped into things without full knowledge of consequences. This seemed to be one of those instances that he would need to save his son from his self. While Koga may come off as a blasé Sesshomaru had seen first hand how Koga had mastered the art of hand to hand combat. He did not need a sword or trinket to take down his opponent.

“I do think it would be best to follow our females. I would hate for something to happen to the Miko” Sesshomaru said knowing full well that Koga would follow.

Koga frowned and looked at Kishi.

“You and I are going to have a talk when get back home.” Koga whispered darkly.

“As you wish my king.” Kishi replied bowing deeply. `I may have overstepped.'

Koga stomped away and wondered if this was what Inuyasha had felt every time he had shown up for Kagome. He hated thinking about that dog and how close to Kagome he had been. Koga did not wish him dead, but he hoped that the dog did not reappear until after he had claimed Kagome. If not then things would get hairy.

Meanwhile at a diner in Roswell, New Mexico a red haired reporter was talking with a female scientist. The woman hypnotized by his glimmering eyes spoke about her work. The reporter's mind whirled at the images that appeared, but he had to be sure.

“So you are telling me that the government found an alien at the bottom of some farmer's well. What made them think it was an alien? Is he a tiny green guy” He asked pursing his lips in thought that maybe they had a kappa.

“No, he has dog ears, claws and strange eyes. He was unconscious when brought to 51, but still breathing. His blood is also strange.” An almost automated voice replied.

“Inuyasha.” Shippo said to himself. He snapped his fingers and the woman blinked.

She looked around almost embarrassed. “I am so sorry about that. I must have been day dreaming. What did you say to me?”

Shippo laughed “Oh, nothing important. I tend to have that effect on women.”
