"...Thank You for what you did for me and wrapping me in your Kimono. Your father would be proud of you. Here's your kimono back." She
unwrapped the kimono from around her and handed it back to him. Then she stood on her tips of her toes and kissed Sesshomaru on the lips.
    
  "Aaaaaaaaaa!" Everyone together said except Inuyasha.
    
  "Momma, your kissing Sesshomaru-sama on the lips again, like you guys did when we came back from your era after you gave his arm back. Ooops!
Did I just say that. HA Ha, you lost out, Inuyasha!" Shippo said, laughing.
    
  "KAGOME! What the hell are you thinking, kissing my brother?" Inuyasha yelled!"
    
  "Inuyasha! Sit, Boy!" she said, glaring at Inuyasha. "Inuyasha, if I want to kiss
your brother then by Kami's sake, I WILL KISS Sesshomaru anytime I want to. Why do you care anyway? You have your corpse, Kikyo,
that you sneak out to see every night. And what I was thinking was, 'Oh, Kami! I'm glad this is not Inuyasha I'm kissing!' " She said as she heard
Sesshomaru chuckle.
    
  "Kagome, Lady Exterminator, Monk, Kagome's family I'll take my leave of you now that I've brought back Kagome. Rin, Jaken, let's go!" His cloudformed under their feet and lifted them into the air and was gone.
    
  "Sis, did you find out what that scroll was about?" Sota wanted to know.
    
  "No, hold on and I'll get it." She ran back into the hut, grabbed the scroll and went back outside.
 
  "Before I read this, Grandpa, Sota, I want you both to know how much it means to me that you're here. Could you talk to mom for me? Then, in two
or three days, I'll come through around 9:00 or 10:00 pm, when you're doing the last checking of the shrine. Sota, keep mom busy so she does
not find out. Since you have school in the morning, Sota; and Grandpa, you
have shrine work to do; after I read the scroll, I'll have Inuyasha take you back through the well. Is that okay with you, Inuyasha? Please, for me!"
Fluttering her eyes at him.
    
  "Feh! Whatever." Inuyasha crossed his arms. "Fine. Just hurry up and read the damn scroll already! Your not getting any younger," he said.
    
  "And you're NOT turning into a full-blooded youkai either, ARE YOU?" she glared back at Inuyasha. "Here's what the scroll read.......
    
  Lady Miko Kagome
   
  Hope this message finds you in Great health. I hear you're my son's best friend who's a human and a miko. I'm glade!
  The message is to invite you to the ceremony to honor my son, Prince Kouga. He's chosen a mate. And since you're good friends with him, I
thought you'd like to be among the guests to congratulate him. I'm afraid you'll be the only human here though.
  The ceremony will last two months. All of the lords and ladies of the lands will be here, as well as a great number of the unmated and
unmarked youkais and hanyous, males and females.
  Along with the ceremony for my son, there will be the Annual Find a Mate Ceremony, where all the single unmated and unmarked youkais and hanyous, males and females, including yourself {even though your human}, will have the chance to find themselves a life mate as well.
  The rules are as followed ' To all who will attend, there is to be NO KILLING, OR TRYING TO KILL!' Since this will be neutral ground, any
violaters of this rule will be escorted off the lands and out of the Northern Territories.
Have no fear, Naraku will not be able to pass through the shield of this territory during this event. So you'll be safe from all harm.
  All attending may bring a person with them. The ceremony will be in one month's time. Sorry for your short notice. If you have any needs or
questions send me a message. Until the ceremony. I hope and look for you
to come so that we may become better acquainted.
   
  Lord Loren
  Northern Territory
    
  "Are you going, Sis? I wish I could go!" Sota smiled.
    
  "NO, she's not going! She has shards to look for!" Inuyasha retorted, cracking
his knuckles.
 
  "Well, it's getting late, so I'll say my good-byes for now." She walked up to them and gave her family hugs and kisses and promised to see them
soon. Then Inuyasha took her family to their era.
    
  "Are you going, Kagome?" Sango asked.
    
  "How can I? I don't own any kimonos. All I have is this white and green miko outfit, and that's it," Kagome said looking down.
    
  "In the morning, we'll visit the seamstress of the village and have her make ye some. And ye will take a few miko outfits as well," Kaede said.
    
  "I have three kimono's you can use, Kagome. Here follow me, " Sango said
as everyone except Inuyasha walked into the hut. Going through her stuff, Sango pulled out a thick bundle of silk and handed the kimono's
to Kagome. "Here you go. Hope they fit well." Sango smiled up at Kagome.
    
  "Oh thank you, Sango. They are so lovely!"
With tears in her eyes, she knelt and hugged Sango.
    
  "What are friends for? They are to help one another. Remember you told us that!" she replied, grinning.
    
  ~ Sesshomaru's Castle ~
      
  Sesshomaru, upon arriving at his castle, walked to his balcony window, starring into the sky. He had been thinking what he should do for the miko who he had started to care for, when a knock came at the door.
    
  "What is it, Jaken?" Sesshomaru's icy tone sounded off.
    
  "Gomen, but I put Rin in her chambers for the night. Shall I bring you anything?" he asked, mindful of his master.
    
"No, Jaken! I won't be needing anything from you tonight." Sesshomaru walked down the hallway intended on stopping at Rin's chamber's but
continued down to the last door of the hall
to his right. He reached out his hand and timidly opened the double doors. Upon the door being
opened the scent of roses and lavender surrounded him. It's was the scent of
his mother. He has not been in this chamber since he was a mere pup, the
day of his mother's untimely death. He walked to his mother's closet, opened the doors and walked in. There, on both sides of him, were
kimono's of elegance, some with many layer's, other's with the family crest, some
with flowers, and some of them his father had others make for his mother.
He picked out 4 that he liked with obi's and some had jewelry. Finding a deep blue fabric, he laid it out and took each kimono and gently folding
them, being mindful of the one's with jewelry and
other hair things, he folded the fabric and wrapped it with silk cord. Then, he picked up the
bundle and walked to the door, then stopped and looked around and said,
"Hope you won't mind, Mother. You would have liked Kagome!" Then he walked
out and to his study summoning Jaken.
    
Jake showed up. "Yes, M'Lord."
    
  "Jaken, summon the seamstress. I've work for her to do tonight that needs to be done by morning," He commanded.
An hour later the seamstress was there.
    
  "The seamstress," Jaken said.
    
  "Young Lord!" the seamstress said.
    
  " You will make a kimono for a woman, and is to be done by mid-morning. You'll work here in my study for I'll observe you as you work."
    
  "Anything else, Sire?" the seamstress asked.
    
  "The kimono is to be made of the silkiest fabrics. It's to look like it has life of it's own, must be attractive, desirable. The fabric is to
be done in white silk and on the back, a kitsune pup, in the colors of a kitsune pup and on the left shoulder, a kitsune paw print. The paw print is
to be black, the obi is not to be to big or to small and is to be made out of black silk. Now you'll be paid when you're done so I'd get
started NOW for it to be done by mid-morning," He said coldly.
    
  "Yes, young Sire!" the seamstress bowed.
    
  Jaken, hearing all this, walked over to his master and looked up at his master to study him before speaking. "Be it to say, Master, that you are
having a kimono made for the wench of your half-brother?" looking at Sesshomaru.
    
  "Indeed I am! Am I limited thus? Or do I presume that you, Jaken, think
I'm NOT lord of my lands and thus unable to be kind?" He said glaring at
Jaken. "The miko has lost her home and era in which she's from and
stuck here with the few clothes she has, which are strange for this era.
She has NO family and the only friends she has are the Monk, the Demon
Exterminator, the old woman, the kitsune, a fire cat, and even though
it's a bad choice, my half-brother, in a world where youkai's and humans
seek her out to kill her for a little jewel. No, Jaken, I know how it is to be alone and wish it not on anyone, not youkai or human. For I was
alone when mother and father died,
and I had no one to talk or confine in but
you and the servants. A heart like hers, even though human it is a heart, bears a burden and needs it to be lifted!" Turning back to the
balcony he said,
"NO, Jaken, tomorrow I'll seek her out and give a gift in hopes to
brighten and lift her heart," Sesshomaru said.
