Sesshoumaru's Wish

Inuyasha said goodbye to his friends and left in search of Kagome and Takeshi. His demon speed allowed him to search areas quickly and his dog nose enabled him to try to pick up scents. His mind was determined that one day, he would find his mate and his son. The only question was when.
----------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------

Kagome spent her days roaming the castle walls and gardens. She put on a happy face whenever she played with Rin, but her mind was never far from Inuyasha and her son. Where was Inuyasha? Did he find Takeshi? Was he looking for her? She remembered how she had decided she didn't need to tell anyone where she was going, figuring she'd be back soon. Oh how she wished she had told someone that Kagura had come for her!

Sesshoumaru gave her everything a girl could want. Beautiful kimonos, delicious food, a warm bed, a fabulous onsen bath. She was living in the lap of luxury, even though she was considered a slave. Obviously, Sesshoumaru, who showered the same things onto Rin, didn't want Rin to know her caregiver was a prisoner.

Kagura was jealous of all the material things that Sesshoumaru provided for Kagome. As lifemate, she should be the only one to have all the goodies. She bitched several times to Sesshoumaru, but he would hear none of it. He had made his decision.

One night, Sesshoumaru went to his mother and asked,

"I would like you to make a spell that would give Kagome a demon's life span. Use my blood to do so.", he asked the lovely demoness.

"What does this human girl mean to you? You have a lovely life mate and she has bore you two sons. Why bother with a pathetic human?", asked his mother.

"Because she can give me the power I desire. She knows the future and I want her to live so that I can reap the benefits of that knowledge, mother."

"Is there nothing more, my son?"

"Nothing."

"Fine. Bring her to me. I will do the spell for you, my son."

Sesshoumaru ordered Jaken to find Kagome and bring her to his mother's room. Jaken found Kagome out in the garden picking daisies for her room,

"Kagome. Lord Sesshoumaru wants you to come with me."

"Why?"

"Don't ask why, you stupid girl. When Lord Sesshoumaru demands your presence, you go. Now come along."

Kagome got up and followed Jaken. Arriving at his mother's room, Jaken opened the door and motioned for Kagome to enter,

"Human child...", said the woman on the throne.

"My name is Kagome. Ka - Go - Me.", she said.

"Of course. My son wishes for you to have demon blood so that you may live longer than a normal human. I have made you a potion and I want you to drink it."

"Why does he want that of me?", Kagome asked.

"He has his reasons."

Kagome thought for a minute. With demon blood, she would be able to live longer with Inuyasha and Takeshi. Her men wouldn't be alone! She had no doubts that someday, she would return to Inuyasha and her son,

"Ok. I'll drink it.", Kagome said, stepping forward. The woman handed the fancy mug to her and Kagome drank it down. It tasted horrible, but if it gave her a longer life-span it was worth it.

Sesshoumaru's mother dismissed her with a wave of her hand and Kagome left. Returning to the garden, she picked up her discarded daisies and went back to her room. As she was putting them in a vase, Rin came skipping in,

"Hey Kagome, can we play that game you taught me, hopscot?"

"You mean Hopscotch? Yes. We can go play."

They spent the afternoon playing and then went in for dinner. Afterwards, Rin went up to bed. Kagome took a nice hot bath and allowed her mind, as she always did, to drift to Inuyasha. She missed him so!

She went into bed and fell asleep, still thinking about her lost hanyou.

The next morning, Kagome awoke and she felt strange. Getting up out of bed, she stretched. Something didn't feel right. Walking over to the mirror, she stared at her reflection. Last night, a perfectly normal human stared back at her. Now a hanyou was in her place.

Her hair, once jet black, was now tinged with blue. Atop of her head was a pair of fuzzy, black dog ears. Her eyes, once brown, were now a soft golden color. Her mouth had small fangs and her hands had claws, smaller than Inuyasha's, but still claws. The spell had worked! She was a hanyou!

"Kagome?", a small voice called. It was Rin. "What happened to you?"

"I'm not a human anymore, Rin. I'm a half-demon. Thanks to Sesshoumaru and his mother."

"WOW! I wanna be a half-demon too!", she said excitedly and ran out the door calling, "Lord Sesshoumaru! Lord Sesshoumaru, where are you?"

Kagome looked again at her reflection. She couldn't understand one thing. Sesshoumaru despised Inuyasha for being a half-demon and sharing their father's blood. So why did Sesshoumaru share HIS blood with her and turn her into the one thing he despised? Shaking her head, she finished getting dressed and headed downstairs for breakfast.
