Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyash.
 
When they entered the dining room, every one became quite. Shadow came running up to Kira, where he had went to sleep with the children last night. Kira bent down a little where he could jump up into her arms.
 
Sesshomaru head over towards his seat at the end of the long table. He motioned for Kira to follow. Rin and Jaken were already setting down at looking at the two of them.
 
Kira followed close behind as she usually does when he tells her to follow him. He waited fro her to sit before he sat down himself. He clapped his hands and maids started to pour out of the kitchen with trays of food.
 
They each laid down two to three trays and then went back to get some more until there was food covering the entire table. Everyone waited for Sesshomaru to eat first, but as usual, he told them to start without them. After it was over, the children ran outside to the fields and started to play with there parents not too far behind.
 
Jaken took Rin into town, and Kira stayed in the dinning room with Sesshomaru. They sat there in silence for a while.
Then Kira said, “you should really try to eat something. You haven't been eating ever since I got here.”
 
He looked over at her, and then moved closer to her. Then he put his arm around her and held her closer to him.
 
“You are sweet to worry about me, but I cannot eat right now. If I do eat now, then when it is time for me to transform. I will be more corruptive then if I wait till after my transformation.” said Sesshomaru.
 
“Your transformation, but aren't you all ready a full demon?” asked Kira.
 
“Yes, but for the past three years, I have been changing slowly. Gradually becoming something else.” said Sesshomaru.
 
“When is the next transformation occurring?” asked Kira.
 
“In three days when the moon is it's fullest. You may not want to be near me then. I don't want to hurt you.” said Sesshomaru.
 
“The only way you can hurt me is by not letting me stay by your side during the transformation.” said Kira.
 
She kissed his cheek and then left to go in the gardens. Shadow was following her wagging its tail. When she got out into the gardens, the children didn't recognize her at first.
She looked somewhat different. She was very pale and she had symbols all over her body. When they saw Shadow following her, they knew who it was. One of the kids slowly went up to her.
 
“Um, Kira, what happened to you?” asked the kid.
 
Not realizing what she was talking about, she looked at the child curiously.
 
“Whatever do you mean?” asked Kira.
 
“Your body has symbols all over. What happened to you?” asked the kid.
 
More of the children were coming to hear what she said. Even some of the adults were coming nearer to her now. Kira looked at her arms and then looked up at every one.
 
“These marking show that I am a child of the moon. They appear only when there is light or if I stand in the full moon's light.” said Kira.
 
“Ok, well that explains the moon and star, but what is running off of it?” asked one of the adults.
 
“Blood.” She said simply.
 
After that, they didn't really speak to much to her. The adults started to realize who she was, but the kids had no clue. On the third day, Sesshomaru and Kira stayed in his room.
 
He stayed in bed where he had a high fever and she stayed by his side to take care of him. She went into the bath room and got a bowl of cold water and a rag. She dipped the rag in the water and ringed it out some.
 
The she placed it gently on his forehead. There was sweat running down his face and he was paler then she had ever seen him. He opened his eyes and looked over at Kira.
 
He knew that even though he didn't want to hurt her, his true demon self might want to do other things. He saw worry in her eyes even though she was smiling at him. Rin and Jaken visited every once and a while, and they also brought them food.
 
It was about noon when his condition started to worsen. His fever went up and his aura smelt of nothing but pure evil. He was grinding his teeth trying not to scream in pain.
 
His claws and fangs grew longer and sharper. His eyes went black as did his hair, but there were still silver streaks in it. There was an unknown force trying to push away everything from him, but Kira stayed by his side.
 
When it was over, most of the stuff in his room was torn up or completely destroyed. Kira's cloths were ripped from the force. Even Sesshomaru's pants were ripped.
 
His fever was now completely gone and his transformation was now complete. He got up and looked at the now weakened Kira. She was down on the floor trying to catch her breath.
 
It took everything she had just to stay by him during the transformation. She stood up shakily and looked at him with a small smile. He just stared at her coldly.
 
Then she fell towards him and he caught her. At first he looked at her in disgust, but the he smelt her aura. It was different than usual.
 
It smelt of blood and anguish, and not only that. It smelt of a time once passed. One that hadn't been pleasant for her or for anyone else that had lived there.
 
He picked her up and placed her gently on the bed. She wasn't as tired anymore and reached up to feel his face.
 
Then she said, “see, I told you that it would be alright.”
 
He leaned down closer to her and kissed her gently on her lips. He transferred some of his energy into her where she could stand once again.
