"Oh!" Kagome bowed politely to the man she had bumped into. "Gomen ne."
The man smiled and merely tipped his hat to the young woman as he bushed passed her and continued on his way. Kagome raised an eyebrow at the man's odd departure but shrugged it off in favor of catching up with Inu yasha.
Inu yasha had stopped a few steps ahead of Kagome, a cellphone pressed lightly against where his human ear should have been and appeared to be thanks to his glamor spell.
"Ok," he said into the device, "Then we'll see you in about an hour?"
Someone on the other end replied but Kagome couldn't make out what they said before Inu yasha grunted and hung up.
"Who was that?" she asked as she come up to his side.
He smiled, "Sess wants us to come over for dinner. Apparently nee-chan has been driving him nuts and asking about you since she heard about your trip to the hospital."
Kagome's features darkened slightly.
"Oi," Inu yasha stepped in front of the small girl, stopping her in her track. A careful hand tipped her face up so that he could look into her soft blue eyes, a gentle smile playing on his lips. "Don't worry.. Neither Sess nor nee-chan know." He gently kissed her forehead. "You're past is yours to tell."
She smiled, the dark mood lifting slightly off her with his words. "Arigato."
He smiled and kissed her forehead once more before stepping back to her side. "So," he asked as the continued down the street. "First we'll go get you a new dress then we'll go to dinner, ne?"
Kagome blushed. "You know, you don't have to get me a new dress. I already have 3."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Inu yasha shook his finger before the girl. "Kagome what have I told you about me buying you things??"
Kagome sighed and shook her head, already sure that she did not want to have this argument again. "I know. I know.. I just feel bad having you spend all this money on me."
A strong, callaced hand took hold of hers and squeezed it gently. "Well don't. I spent all this time gathering money so that when I found you again I could take care of you. So I could get you all the things that I couldn't before." He smiled. "I just want you to be happy."
Kagome sighed, a gentle smile lighting up her face. "All right then." She removed her hand from his only to loop her arm through his at the elbow. "Do you at least have any preferances?"
Inu yasha smiled, "I was thinking a nice blue dress..."

The sporty red car made quick work of the drive way and came to a stop just in front of the main door of the house. A small man dressed in black hurried down to the car and opened the door for the young woman on the passenger side and stepped back to allow her to exit the car.
Kagome's eyes fell upon the rather large mansion, that seemed to her almost bigger then Inu yasha's, and couldn't help but gasp. A beautiful set of marble steps led to a pair of large white doors that currently stood open revealing the honey colored recieving room at the front of the house.
A very petite young woman suddenly came flying through the doors and hurled herself at Kagome.
"Kagome-chan!!" she cried.
Kagome barely caught the woman and let out a loud 'oof' as they both went toppling to the ground.
"Oh it's been so long!" the dark hair woman cheered. She pulled back and smiled up at the stunned young woman. "I haven't seen you in ages!!!"
Inu yasha laughed, "Literally."
Kagome looked from the woman, to Inu yasha and back again. "Umm.. I'm sorry. I feel bad for asking because you obviously know me but.. I don't seem to remember you?"
"Oh!" The woman jumped to her feet. "How rude of me!! You wouldn't reconize me like this would you?!"
Inu yasha quickly pulled the puzzled Kagome to her feet, trying hard not to laugh at her confused face. She had always been so cute when she had no idea what was going on.
"No Rin-chan," he laughed, "You were about 8 the last time she saw you."
Kagome's eyes went wide and her mouth dropped open as she gasped. "Rin?! You're RIN?! But- But- HOW?!"
"I mated Sesshy, baka. We're bonded, like you and Inu-chan will be one day." She winked at the pair.
Inu yasha blushed. "Um, so any way," he said quickly, trying desperately to change the subject. "Where is that no good brother of mine?"
"No good am I?" a cool voice asked from the door way. The three looked up to see the regal elder youkai decending the stairs in a much more dignified way then his mate had. "And what would that make you?"
Inu yasha smiled widely, his chest puffed out in pride. "I'm the cute one."
A small smirk pulled at the corner of his lips. "That makes since.. You had to have something since I got all the brains."
"Hey!" Inu yasha laughed. "You're still an ass."
"And you're still a baka."
"Boys," Rin giggled. "Let's take this inside. We have a lot of catching up to do!" With that she darted out and grabbed Kagome's arm, pulling her towards the door. "Come on Kagome-chan!!"
Kagome looked back with a look of uncertain horror as she dragged away that made the two remaining brothers laugh.
"That Rin of yours certainly is full of energy." Inu yasha said, following his older brother as he entered the house.
Sesshoumaru nodded. "Indeed. But from what I remember of our miko friend she should be an easy match for my mate."
Inu yasha frown a bit but shook it off. "Things change Sess.. Don't let Rin get too carried away with Kagome."
The older youkai raised a questioning eyebrow but only nodded. "Indeed."
The two men moved deeper into the house, passing through long and elegantly decorated hallways before passing into the dining room where the women were already seated at a small oak table.
Inu yasha smiled as he took a seat next to Kagome on one side. "I see you brought out the kiddy table. Didn't think we were old enough to sit with the grown ups?"
"Rin insisted that we sit together like a family."
"Hai!" the young woman next to Sesshoumaru cheered. "It's too had to talk at the monstrosity we call a table."
Kagome nodded. "This is much cozier."
Rin smiled, "So Kagome-chan what have you been doing with yourself these last 500 years?"
"Oh you know.. the usual.." she smiled softly. "Being born, growing up... falling through an enchanted well in my backyard."
The group chuckled.
"So what about recently?" Rin leaned back as a butler placed a plate in front of her. "Where excatly did Inu-chan find you?"
Kagome tensed. "Umm.. well you see.. that is.."
"Downtown."
Kagome looked over, passing a grateful smile to her her resucer.
He passed back a smile of his own. "I was walking around down town when I happened upon her scent. I found her and dragged her off to the park." It wasn't a totally lie.. he just didn't mention where he'd picked her up **from** before dragging her off. "We talked and it was decided that she would come stay with me so we could get caught up."
"And your family doesn't mind?" Sesshoumaru asked. "If I remember correctly my otouto said before that you and your mother were quite close."
Kagome frowned and looked away. "We don't talk much any more."
Rin frown. "I'm sorry to hear that. I know I'd be quite sad if one of my children stopped talking to me."
"How are my nieces and nephews?" Inu yasha said, quickly changing the uncomfortable subject.
"Oh they are, as always, a handful." Rin smiled happily as she took a bite out of her salad.
"Hai," Sesshoumaru placed two fingers on either side of his nose and closed his eyes. "And they haven't lived with us for at least 100 years..."
Inu yasha laughed. "Let me guess, Musha brought over his little ones again and they got into something..."
"The library..."
Rin laughed and nodded. "Yep. And we spent two weeks putting everything back in order."
"I will never understand how two pups can get into so much trouble."
Kagome gave an indignate snot. "You obviously never raised a kitsune kit!"
Inu yasha nodded, "Oh the thing Shippou would get in to...." Inu yasha laughed and turned to Kagome, "Remember the time he got into you bag and found your 'feminan napkins' and thought they were a girl's version of the regular ones??"
Kagome blushed a bright red. "Inu yasha!" she whined, looking over to the laughing couple across from them. "Don't tell that story! It's embarassing!!"
"Oh no nii-chan!" Rin managed between giggles. "Do tell! I wanna know what he did with them!"
Inu yasha laughed, "Well you see.."
@>~~~^~~~~
The roars of laughter from the dining room had finally calmed to gentle chuckles as the two men sat conversating while their two female companions had darted off to the gardens for a quick tour.
"You seem a lot happier now otouto. May I venture it has something to do with the return of our miko friend?"
Inu yasha sighed, staring at the last bit of wine in his glass. "It really does feel so good to have her home. I really didn't realize exactly how much I missed her.." He turned to the open back doors leading to the gardens. "Even now it's kinda hard to believe.."
Sesshoumaru nodded. "Well it is a good thing you found her cause you were about the drive the rest of us insane." He sipped his wine, "If you had not located her soon I was going to take matters into my own hands."
Inu yasha pouted and was about to retaliate when a loud piercing scream ripped through the still air of the night. Two bodies suddenly threw themselves into the direction of the scream and the gardens, running with panic enduced speed towards their target.
On the ground, just towards the back of the garden, Kagome sat kneeling on the soft grass with Rin just above her in obvious shock. The young woman shook in violent sobs, her shaky voice tearing through the calm night as she screamed and shook her head as if to deny some unknown truth.
Rin was the first to notice the arrive or the two men and quickly waved them over. "Oh Gods! Inu yasha! Sesshy!"
Sesshoumaru ran to his teary eyed mate and held firmly to him. He sniffed the area for danger but all he could smell was the fear exsuted from the girl crumpled on the ground.
Inu yasha made an immediate bee-line to Kagome, dropping swiftly to the ground next to her and pulling her into his lap.
"Kagome!?" he called to her desperately. "Kagome please! Calm down!"
His voice only seemed to aggitate her more cause her to fight him and scream all the louder.
Inu yasha flattened his ears to his head in an attempt to drowned out the sound. He turned panic filled eyes to his brother, pleading silently for a solution.
'Be calm' the older youkai mouth to him.
He nodded and took a few breaths to get himself under control. 'In 500 years you think I would have learn to control my emotions better...' he thought with a nervous laugh. Taking one more deep breath, he turned back to the screaming woman in his arms and whispered gently into her ear.
"Kagome," he said softly. "Kagome, it's all right. Everything will be fine. I'm here and your safe so just relax..."
At first it didn't seem to work but as he continued his gentle cooing and soft comforting words her screams and sobs quieted down to gentle teary eyed sniffles. She turned and buried her face in his chest, crying softly until he felt her breathing even out and knew that she had fallen asleep.
Very careful not to wake her, he stood and looked to his brother and sister for direction. Without a word, Sesshoumaru lead Inu yasha into the house, to a small room just at the top of the stairs where the young woman could rest. Rin had disappeared on the way up the stair only to return just as he was settling Kagome into the bed with a large pink comforter for the shivering woman.
Inu yasha nodded his thanks and took the blanket, carefully tucking it around Kagome. Once he was sure she was comfortable he gently kissed her forehead and stepped back into the hall to his companions.
He looked first at Rin as the door snapped quietly shut behind him. "What happened?" he asked.
Rin shook her head, "I'm not sure. Kagome-chan was just talking about how cold it was and then she stuck her hands into her pocket and... Oh!" Rin's eyes lit up as she switched her gaze quickly back and forth between the two men, "There was a letter! In her pocket! She opened it up and began to read it just before she started screaming!"
Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow in wonder. "I see." He turned from his mate to his brother, "Did she have a letter when you were with her just now?"
Inu yasha shook his head.
"Hm.." he turned and headed down the stairs, Inu yasha and Rin not far behind. He exited through the back doors and made his way back to the corner of the garden they had located the missing women in earlier that evening. The three began quietly scowing the garden, looking in bushes and flower beds for the missing letter.
"Ah," Sesshoumaru waved his companions over to a small rose bush just next to where Kagome had collapsed. Inu yasha looked at his brother as he was handed a letter sized piece of white paper. "I believe this will answer your question?"
Inu yasha nodded his thanks and took the letter from his brother. Skimming over it quickly, he couldn't contain the growl that escaped his lips. His hands closed tightly around the letter, crushing it in her firm grip but other wise not damaging it.
"That son of a --" Inu yasha throw the letter back at his brother as he darted back into the house.
Rin and Sesshoumaru watched as the hanyou ran back into the house, a bit confused by his statement. Looking down at the crumpled up piece of paper that his brother had throw at him, Sesshoumaru carefully unfolded it and read it out loud to his mate..
~Letter~
I hope you know now there's no place to hide.
I will always find you.
That man of yours and that weird cat will be no help.
You have to be alone sometimes and when you are...
You're dead.
~End Letter~
Rin gasped and looked up to her mate. Through his passive expression had not change she could see the rage clearly in his eyes, the gold sometimes giving way to sparks of red. She laid a gentle hand on his arm, snapping his attention to her but she was not afraid. She moved forward and wrapped her arms around his waist.
"Oh Sesshy," she felt hot tears sting her eyes. "What are we going to do?"
The youkai lord sighed and held her close. "It appears my otouto has gotten himself into some kind of mess with his woman. I suppose, once we are informed about the problem, we shall offer our support in the matter."
Rin nodded. "But, how are we going to find out what's going on?"
Sesshoumaru looked down at the woman in his arms with a puzzled expression, "I was just gonna go ask... What did you think?"
Rin might have laughed at her own stupid question had it been a different time. For now she merely nodded her agreement with her mate's plan before turning with him to re-enter the house.

The youkai lord sighed and held her close. "It appears my otouto has gotten himself into some kind of mess with his woman. I suppose, once we are informed about the problem, we shall offer our support in the matter."
Rin nodded. "But, how are we going to find out what's going on?"
Sesshoumaru looked down at the woman in his arms with a puzzled expression, "I was just gonna go ask... What did you think?"
Rin might have laughed at her own stupid question had it been a different time. For now she merely nodded her agreement with her mate's plan before turning with him to re-enter the house.

Kami : I didn't use this word this time but I'd like to start. Kami is the word of 'God' or 'God(s)' in japanese. It is both purlar and singlar but in my stories you can assume it is the purlar.
