“She has returned is it time now?”
 
`Patience child'
 
“I have waited long enough. I grow truly tired of this place this other world.”
 
`In good time, you will return.'
 
“Finally after close to two centuries. My dear friend I will follow your will to the best of my abilities…”
 
`…'
 
 
 
 
 
A gentle murmur came from the sleeping onna that lay peacefully within his arms. Drawing his attention once again to the present moment of having her here with him until… she left. But as quickly as the thought came, it left. He would not start thinking about what was to come but instead should focus on the now. We have plenty of tomorrows to live and grow with.
 
“Inuyasha?”
 
“Yeah Kagome?”
 
“What happens now? Miroku and Sango have such a lovely family. Shippo is training to become more powerful and Rin she is becoming a young lady. What about us Inuyasha? What do we become now?”
 
“Ummm… I don't know. What do you mean?”
 
“Are we going to follow Miroku and Sango's example?”
 
He knew that one day she would ask about that about children and marriage but… how did he explain that demons were different that she would become his mate too that her powers would disappear once her body was touched by a man. In a way he didn't want her to lose her powers for the reason that she would no longer be able to protect herself as much as he wanted her to.
 
 
 
 
“Kagome… I don't know I think we should wait until we are sure of what we want.”
 
She nodded unsure of what to do now. Did he not want a family with her? Or was something else plaguing him? Her eyes settled on the horizon where the sun rose beyond the mountains the light illuminating the rice fields. `I wonder if it will always be this peaceful from now on.'
 
 
Within the cavern of the mountain of fire an old man pounded against the new weapon he was forging. The ever fearful flea, Myoga standing a few feet a way.
 
“I wonder Totosai, what do you think master Inuyasha will do about Kagome's humanity? She is bound to die in a few decades compared to his centuries left.”
 
“I suspect, began the smith that they will find a way or something will happen. The Great Dog Demon could not find anything for his lover so I suspect that Kagome will die of old age.”
 
“How sad it is to love someone for only a short period of time. She does have tasty blood… I will miss that mind you.”
 
“Myoga is that-.”
 
He swirled around quickly disbelief in his eyes.
 
“What's the matter Totosai? I-.”
 
“It can't be…! The box it's…”
 
Myoga turned his gaze to the object his old friend was staring at in such horror a plain looking box was glowing.
 
“What exactly is that?”
 
“The Great Dog Demon's… I need to go see Inuyasha now!”
 
Before the flea could blink his friend snatched the box and ran quickly to his ever faithful friend MoMo. Snapping out of his stupor the flea grabbed on to the old man's robes as they headed quickly towards Edo. `What is in that box?'
