Actually, it wasn't even supposed to be this long! Well that just me more reviews for me.

D/c: I don't own it.

[Chapter 19 starts]

[Earlier that same day]

Sesshomaru finally had to float down on the land for he had grow tried of Kagome screaming and he frail attempt pounding her weak little fists into his back. Plus, the wolf was gaining up on them and he didn't need a major headache from that gawking wolf. He dropped Kagome down hard on her backside it was a lucky thing that she had gained his respect or he would happily snap her small body in half. Though then he would have to deal with his brother, yes the young miko was lucky that he was bound to so many pacts that protected her life. Though his attention was finally brought back to, the young miko that was nearly standing on tip toes with her weak human fist balled up. As long as she didn't have weapons, she was no trouble. At least that what he assumed of the young miko that was so full of fire.

Kagome: Hey! Are you listening to me? Sesshomaru!

Sesshomaru: I don't waste my time with such pettiness. Leave me human. (Continues to ignore her)

Kagome: (Grabbing two hand full of his long hair) Hey you going to listen to me! I don't care if you like it or not!

Sesshomaru: Let go of me. (Snarling)

Kagome: No! What give you the big idea that you can get carry me off to the middle of nowhere like that. You didn't even ask me! I'm not some bag of bones ya know. I know my rights!

Sesshomaru: (mildly sarcastically) Excuse me but I believe I just saved you pathetic little human life. Unless you rather had been buried alive. Now release me.

Kagome: No. Umm thank you. (Letting go of his hair)

Sesshomaru: I only did so due to my truce with Inuyasha.

Kagome: Your what?

Sesshomaru: Its none …. … … …

Kouga: Kagome! (Growls) Sesshomaru! What are you doing with my Kagome?

Sesshomaru: I not doing anything with my wrench. (Holding Kagome close to him.)

Kouga: No she aint mutt-face…. …. … (Finally comprehend what Sesshomaru just said) your what! (Confused/Pissed now) When this happen!?! (Snarling)

Sesshomaru: Unless you wish to be killed I suggest you sit down and shut up.

Kagome: (Confused/peeved also) What exactly did you and Inuyasha talk about last night?

Sesshomaru: With came up with a agreement that is all. Part of that I am supposed to protect you from this stupid wolf. When the half-breed not around. Though it really none of your concern miko.

Kagome: And how come neither of you ask for my opinion about this!?! (Pulling away from his grasp)

Sesshomaru: simple your opinion doesn't matter to me. (Not letting her go)

Kagome: Listen you. (Growling)

Kouga: Kagome's opinions ALWAYS matters!

Kagome: Yes exactly what he said! How dare you two go behind my back making decisions about my life like that! You just tell that brother of your he better be lucky that it too cold for me to sit him back fifty years!

Sesshomaru: (Headache getting worst) Listen woman! First, THIS Sesshomaru takes orders from no one! Secondly, what that half-breed and I do is our business. Thirdly, if you don't cease and desist speaking I will gladly throw you off this cliff and rip that wolf friend of yours in half.

It was just a bluff but it worked. For both the wolf and Miko sat down throwing pissed glares at him. He wouldn't kill Kagome or cause her any unnecessary harm. (Too much) He respected her but it would take a while for him to like her that is, IF he would allowed himself to like her. However, for Inuyasha's sake he would work with the girl. It had been nearly a two days and one nights since his Rin had left him. What would happen if they didn't find her and the stupid kitsune? Worst yet what if she was already frozen dead somewhere's. Sesshomaru shook those thoughts out of his head.

No he would find both cubs and then he would see too it that Rin never saw the outside of his castle walls without her two feet from him again. Wait why was he sounding almost like a father? When he told Inuyasha his feelings for Rin did he really mean it? Was she like a daughter too him? Sesshomaru uttered a low growl. Why did he have to put up with such insubordination?

Then all of sudden he sense it but not with his nose. No, it was his inner parental sixth sense. Rin! He could just barely make out the shadowy figure of Kirara that was coming closer. Kagome sense that all too familiar inner parental sense too her cub was back as well. She knew as she stood staring at the sky. Kouga of course was at lost by all this but was staring at the two like they have had too much sake or something. Till he saw Kirara land right next to him. Inuyasha promptly fell off kirara and started rolling around in the even wet cold snow hoping to gain some heat in his freezing body.

Miroku: Inuyasha are you okay? (Worry etched in his face.)

Sango: (awkwardly) um, look who we saw hanging around?

When Sango unwrapped the still shivering Kagome instantly rushed over to Shippo side to hugged the little kit up against her tightly. Kissing the top of his little frozen head. It didn't take any time for the Shippo to start crying. It took all of Sesshomaru's pride not to do the same as he steadily walked towards his half frozen ward. Though it didn't take any time for Rin to close the gap between them as she clutched onto Sesshomaru leg.

Rin: Sesshomaru-sama. (Whimpering)

Sesshomaru: (softly) Rin.

Rin: (sniffing) Rin sorry Sesshomaru-sama. Are you mad at Rin? Rin's sorry Sesshomaru-sama. (Staring deeply in his amber eyes) But Rin found Shippo-chan!

Sesshomaru almost wanted to shed a few tears if only the others hadn't been around. Thus, he just opted for stroking Rin's frozen dark brown hair gently. Words couldn't express his gratitude. He could never be mad at the girl maybe a little irritated but never too mad. Of course, if not for the others, Rin wouldn't never had been found which he finally allowed himself to admit to himself.

She was really sick so sick she empty her stomach her stomach right onto the snow much to Sesshomaru disgust. Her lips were turning blue, her hands were raw and numb, and she would soon die if exposed to the coldness any longer. Still coughing and sneezing her little body away. She had gotten wet and she was chilled to the bone. As soon as Rin opened her eyes again to see her Sesshomaru-sama, she fainted in his hold around her.

Shippo was in a similar condition his fur was half frozen, he was having uncontrolled shivering up was running a very high fever, and was also throwing up. Inuyasha was also shivering and toes were numb and bleeding. Sesshomaru order the group back to his castle as he warped Rin cold body with his tail; it didn't help much but he couldn't risk her life again. They had to go back to his castle and fast.

Sesshomaru: (Sternly) If we don't get there, they will all freeze to death.

While Kagome looked at her two freeze boys and took off her coat. Sesshomaru quirked an eyebrow at her; she didn't dared defy him again. After she dare strike him again just because he saved her sorry human life. So, what if he didn't ask her to climb on his back. Worst enough he had to knock out the obnoxious wolf out again for him trying to skip out at the last second.

Sesshomaru: Miko what are you doing? I said we leaving.

Kagome: I know but we need to get Inuyasha and Shippo warm up now. Could you use your claws to cut this in half for me please?

Without a yes or no answer Sesshomaur simply slice the coat in half, gave Kagome an emotionless look, and took off with Rin. He had to admit the young miko had sense, which is one of the reasons while he silently respected her. Hopefully Rin would become just as smart as her.

Inuyasha picked up Kagome for the extra warmth as Kagome rolled Shippo up in the other half of the coat and carried him in between them. Kirara of course carried Sango, Miroku, and a knocked out Kouga. Though one thing was for sure the group was complete and almost completely happy.

[Sesshomaru castle]

It had been a very hectic afternoon Sesshomaru return to the castle first and saw to it that his Rin was given a hot bath, warm clothing, hot broth and sent to bed. A similar pattern happen with Shippo and Inuyasha as well as Sango, Miroku, Kirara and Kouga who were all pretty much exhausted from the day. Kagome refused to go to sleep as she stayed by Shippo side throughout the; likewise for Sesshomaru who saw that all that Rin little needs were met. Though the smell of human sickness what getting to his almost restored nose as he walked out into the balcony outside his bedchamber. Where he let out a loud groan.

For down beneath his balcony Sesshomaru saw and heard his bumbling imp/toad servant all depressed looking nearly burning a hole into the ground. Not only that but it looked like he had been caught in the earlier forest fire and had been attacked or trampled on a heard of wild animals. The thought made Sesshomaru smirk slightly as he was contemplating his next move. Should he go down there or should he leave Jaken down there to freeze to death. Considering that he did have his Rin, back and that everything was almost back to normal. It might not be the same with out the green nuisance around. In one swift movement Sesshomaru was behind the dazed out toad.

Sesshomaru: I thought I told you never to come here. (Snarling)

Jaken must have jumped about five feet in the air as he his little heart nearly flew out his nose. Then just as fast was he on the ground like Kagome had just "sat" him. After crying, begging, and groveling at Sesshomaru's feet yet making no sense. Sesshomaru sighed in sheer irritation. Though it was now clear to Sesshomaru that the little toad had been injured in the fire and trample by the fleeing animals. Also, he hadn't eaten since Sesshomaru banished him. He might let him back but he would face a major demotion.

Sesshomaru: I will only ask again then I shall just behead you here and now. What are you doing here Jaken? More importantly, why should I let you back on my land?

Jaken: Please milord, I do whatever you ask of this stupid lazy Jaken. I will never lie to you again I swear it master. Please I beg for another chance milord. (Still crying a pond) This Jaken is unable to make it on his own! (Getting all freaked out again as he starts to remember all the horror he's been through) I'll be eaten milord!

Sesshomaru: Enough of this Jaken! Go get clean up, attend to rest of the servants aid; and you will stand guard at the front gates tonight.

Jaken little heart sunk he had been demoted significantly. He was being barked at like a common servant. Oh kami he was a common servant now however at least he was a servant of Sesshomaru. That's all that matter right now to him as he bowed deeper than Sesshomaru even thought possible and ran inside the castle with glee.

Sesshomaru: (quietly) I know nothing but idiots.

Sesshomaru leapt back up into his room and headed back to Rin's room. When he overheard Kagome and Inuyasha speaking. Not to get him wrong or anything this, Sesshomaru was not an easy dropper however the relationship between his brother and his wrench always somehow intrigued him. So, he couldn't help but listen in.

[Kagome & Inuyasha]

Inuyasha had been trying get up and out all day after getting only a few hours of sleep. He insisted that he was fine now and he wanted everyone to get off his back. However, everyone insisted he lay down and regain his health. Though he only "feh" the whole idea of him being too sick to do anyone. Though Kagome threaten to used that evil demon purify water on his toes if he didn't lay down and behave properly. As for Sesshomaru he threaten to chain Inuyasha to the wall if need be if he didn't keep the noise level down to Rin and his comrades could sleep.

So a defeated Inuyasha with into temper tantrum mode staring at the ceiling with a fixed sulk refusing to be helped in anyway or eat. Though if he didn't eat he would soon start having dizzy spells and relapse. He "feh" at this as well as told everyone to leave him alone. Though Kagome wanted him to eat a little more but the he was refusing too. Which is what they were fighting about right now.

Kagome: If you don't eat it then you might get sick. Why are you being so stubborn? You know it not poison!

Inuyasha: I don't like carrots! Also, I can't get sick!

Kagome: You just making that up. Eat it.

Inuyasha: No.

Kagome: Inuyasha I said eat it.

Inuyasha: Go back to Shippo and maybe I'll eat it.

Kagome: You lying Inuyasha. I already tried that and you just toss it out the window.

Inuyasha: I'll promise I'll eat it now go away.

Kagome: You want me to say `it?

Inuyasha: (Stiffening up) Hey! I'm the one would rescued Shippo and Rin I don't deserved to be sat for years!

Kagome: You acting like a first grader.

Inuyasha: a first what? (Confused face)

Kagome: (sighing) Your such a big puppy.

Inuyasha: AM NOT!

Kagome: ARE TOO!

Inuyasha: AM NOT!

This went on for a good two minutes thus Sesshomaru lost interested in the odd couple and walked towards Rin's bedroom. Walking swiftly into her room, he could hear the soft steadily sound of her sleeping. She had been sleeping all evening and now it was night. He actually couldn't wait until she was her healthy though there would be consequences to be meet as soon as she was better. Though he would first have to speak with Inuyasha and maybe Kagome on the matter.

Even down he still couldn't believe her and the kitsune were eaten alive, starved to death, or merely frozen out in the cold. Perhaps neither of them were as weak as he taken them. Rin had a fire in her as well almost like that of Inuyasha's wench but not quite. He never met a woman so full of spirit and heart like Kagome now he didn't really have to worry about Inuyasha's well being with her as his mate no one could possible kill him. Not even he one of the most power demon lords since his father.

Sesshomaru knew she was from a completely different world one that even he; Sesshomaru knew nothing about. The Kit wasn't as weak or shy as he made everyone believe either but that was in their nature in the first place. He would stay by her side tonight regardless of the gossip that would soon follow he made up his mind. Rin was now an important part of his life a part of him that he did want to live without. She who had unintentionally brought back his laughter, joy, and the heart he thought he had long buried under a pile of ice. He nearly chuckled as he now heard the sound of Kagome forcing stew down his younger brother throat. As he, earred in towards there room once more.

[Inuyasha and Kagome]

Inuyasha: what are you trying to do kill me? (Making a face of pure disgust) This stuff is cold.

Kagome: I told you to eat it or I would force it down your stubborn throat. Now was it all that bad?

Inuyasha: Yes. Now go away! I don't want anymore.

Kagome: fine I make a deal with you okay?

Inuyasha: I'm listening.

Kagome sighed in defeat if this didn't work she didn't know what would. The hanyou was just to stubborn. Why couldn't she just stay mad at him though? `Its cause he's sexy,' she thought. Wait where did that come from, she quickly found herself blushing. As Inuyasha was wondering what the hell was going through that pretty little head of hers. He didn't know what happen to Kikyo only that she didn't seem to be anywhere around so now there was only Kagome, but Kagome was always around. He felt his heartbeat start to pick up as he start thinking about all the things that made Kagome so beautiful but to get his get his mind out the gutter he rudely clear hiss throat.

Inuyasha: well are you going to tell me or what?

Kagome: Okay, I promised to bring back two months wroth of ramen just for you if and only if you finish the rest of this on your own. I want to check back with Shippo. (Hands folded and eyes closed)

When Kagome raised her head to look back at Inuyasha and she had to hold back at laugh. Inuyasha was gulping the cold stew down like a little kid eating chocolate cake. Inuyasha lick his lip when he was finish as he slammed the bowl down.

Inuyasha: There ya happy now?

Kagome: (smiling) Yes Inuyasha I'm happy.

Inuyasha: Good now get out I'm sleep. That stew was disgusting you and you owe me ramen lots of ramen.

Kagome: Okay Inuyasha okay.

Kagome hurried out the room so Inuyasha could get his sleep. She almost forgot where she was going. It was easy this place was huge! She still wonder why Sesshomaru ever left here though he rudely told her that was none of her business and he had better castles but Kagome couldn't image anything bigger than this. As she walked around gawking at the imaging colors themes, painting, and countless items that she only thought were in very old history books and fairy tales. Till she bump into something really solid and hard. Rubbing her head, she looked up expecting to see a wall but instead there stood Koga.

Koga: You okay Kagome?

Kagome: er sorry Koga-kun wasn't paying any attention to where I was going.

Koga: I wasn't either.

Kagome: Where are you going? It late you should get some sleep.

Koga: Nowhere. I already got all the sleep I need Kagome but I better tell you something before it too late.

Kagome: Yeah what?

Koga: I going to leave tomorrow back to my pack. I know they can't last long without me.

Kagome: I understand Koga-kun and thank you for all your help. Without you we might have never found where Shippo or Rin where.

Koga: well it was really dog- er Inuyasha and his brother that did most of the work.

Kagome: Well you the one that could still sniff them out it was through teamwork.

Koga: I guess so. Thanks. Though you should get some sleep now too.

Kagome: I will after I check on Shippo. I think he's alright now. His fever broken down now.

Koga: He'll be fine in a couple of days. That's a strong pup you have Kagome.

Kagome: Well goodnight Koga-kun and goodbye in case I don't get to see you off tomorrow.

Koga: (Embracing her tightly) Dear Kagome you know I'm never too far from you. I love you too much to let you to far out of my sight.

Kagome: Um yeah well I better go and check on Shippo now.

The two friends went off in different directions. Koga shook his head gently he knew that Kagome would never be his. She loved Inuyasha anyone would eyes could see and in spite his stubbornness he knew it too. He just didn't want to admit it but he had too. Even when just embracing her he could smell the strong scent of Inuyasha clinging to her. He knew due to their deep bond that she never be his. The way she stood up to the great and powerful Sesshomaru on the behalf of mutt-face showed poof of that. Those two were destined to be together whether they knew it or not or willing to accepted that wasn't the case anymore. Now he had to shallow his pride and admit defeat. As followed the scent of Inuyasha through the darkness.

Sesshomaru keen as ever was hearing ever conversation going on and knew in order to keep his castle intact he had better follow the stupid wolf towards Inuyasha's room lest the peace would be broken. Besides, he didn't want anything or anyone disturbing his Rin from her semi peaceful slumber minus the few coughs that would barely coming out in little fits. He let out a low groan he didn't want to leave her side he wanted to be the first thing she

Inuyasha had also overheard the conversation in he was in a happy place. It was jealously strikes for the millionth and one time. Kagome was his! Well at least she should be. It wasn't like she really would be interested in a half-breed like him but just in case. Wolf-boy needed to lay off. He rather die than she he in the arms of that shaggy wolf. He let out a low threaten growl as Kouga came closer to his room. Out of nowhere, Sesshomaru did the same slightly scaring both Inuyasha and Kouga.

Sesshomaru: It much to late for you to start up this love rival. Go outside if you wish to fight it out. You two will not destroy my property.

Inuyasha: Love what? As if.

Sesshomaru: (Low growl) Lets go outside now both of you. This is not a request.

So the three of them walked down the long and every twisting and winding till they where met with the cool crisp winter air. All three of them knew that only two of them would be coming back through those giant doors.

Sesshomaru: Now I will like to see you two act with a little maturity this time around.

Inuyasha: whatever.

Koga: (nodding in agreement) I only have a few words to say anyway. Then I must leave to attend to my pack.

Inuyasha: Good so hurry up and spill it so you can go.

Sesshomaru: Inuyasha.

Inuyasha: Hey, I being patience with the bastard the best I can or I can rips his guts out. (Flexing his claws)

Koga: Listen dog-breath. Kagome is all yours no need to get all uptight about it anymore. I'm done fighting with you.

This shocked Inuyasha to no abound though Sesshomaru stayed neutral this was his affair really though he was mildly interested in why the sudden change of heart on the wolf's side.

Inuyasha: wh….what?

Koga: Kagome's yours. She's always was. I see that now so I'm stepping aside. She's never love me the way she does you.

Sesshomaru: what draws you to that conclusion?

Koga: the way she stood up to, you back in the cave. She would never do that for me.

You all beaten me up some many time during the journey she only stopped you from killing me that's it. Though I never saw, he act that bravely for anyone but for Inuyasha.

Inuyasha: Believe me if I wanted to kill you I don't care what Kagome said.

Sesshomaru: You wouldn't go against Kagome. I'm not going against her that miko is much to powerful when infuriated. She not to be crossed with.

Inuyasha: She really scared you back in the cave didn't see? (Smirking) Hell from what you told me she almost killed you right?

Koga: Like hell. He was shaking like a newborn puppy.

Sesshomaru: (growling) I'll remind you once more your on my land Koga and if you wish to see your comrades again you will not bring that up. I didn't see you sitting still either.

Inuyasha: (Snort) What feeling offended? Kagome no ordinary woman. She'll vaporize your ass in an minute. I seen her kill penalty of demon with on fling of her arrows. She almost as strong as me maybe strong.

Sesshomaru: She's not from this world is she?

Inuyasha: No she ain't.

Koga: She too lovely too. She has too big of heart.

Sesshomaru: I noticed something foreign about her scent from the beginning.

[Long paused]

Koga: Listen mutt-face I am not making any promises of letting go of my love for her. I'll always love Kagome no matter what. So, whoever this Kikyo girl was you have to let go of her. I not about to stand back and allow you break her heart.

Inuyasha: Oh and what are you going to do if I do?

Koga: I'll kill you. Then I'll make her my mate even if she doesn't love me in the beginning she might grow to love me.

Sesshomaru: You can't take a mate like that. She'll most likely die from a broken heart. Inuyasha you have to admit your love to her soon.

Inuyasha: (light blush) Hey who said I have to tell her first. She should tell me. Anyway, why are we jumping to conclusion Kagome in love with everyone right?

Sesshomaru: Are you really that dense? Or just plain stupid?

Inuyasha: watch it!

Koga: (sighing) Kagome must be a pure goddess to have to put up with this dunce.

Inuyasha: what did you saying me you wimpy wolf?

Sesshomaru: He's saying to be the true demon you are inside and get rid of your insecurities of being a half-demon on the outside and ask her to be your mate.

Inuyasha: (growling) I not insecure about anything. You two forgetting about that bastard Naraku that hell-bent of destroying the world. You know the one that killed Koga's pack members, the one that tired to entrap you dear brother, and the one that gave Miroku that void in his head. I can't ask her anything before we get rid of that bastard.

This got the two off his back. The whole conversation was getting on his nerves why the hell were they out here talking about this stuff anyway. Its not like Kagome and him were going anywhere. He had plenty of time to think this stuff out especially since Koga claimed he was out of the picture. Also, the fact that Kikyo seemed to be gone as well and that's what really bother him. He still failed to protect her like he promised what if he couldn't protect Kagome.

Sesshomaru: Your still missing the main point Inuyasha. Kagome may not wait for you; you have meet many different people during your silly quest for the shards of shikon jewels correct?

Inuyasha: Yeah.

Sesshomaru: Then whose to say that she might not find someone better than you. Someone that may match her fire temper and strength far better than you.

Koga: Or if that bastard Naraku turn her against you. Or you against her.

Sesshomaru: Exactly. Stop procrastinating with your feeling. Confess your love to her now before something ill fated happens that you both we later regret.

Inuyasha: (face is on fire seems like) Where do you two get off telling me how to live my life! What if I am not in love with her? What if I can't let Kikyo go? Ever thought about that huh? When did you two become such experts? Now what do you have to say?

Sesshomaru: (sighs) To that I say goodnight Inuyasha. (Gets up and starts to leave)

Koga: (snort) I'm just going to leave here and now. Say goodbye to my sweet Kagome for me. Thank you Sesshomaru-sama for allowing me at your castle.

Sesshomaru: Don't expect me to I'll allow you back. (Flies back too Rin's room)

Koga: Don't expect me to want to come back. (Runs off into the night)

Thus, Inuyasha was left alone in the snow that was lightly falling all around him. Trying to absorb everything he just taking in. Deep down he knew they where right but then he would be wrong and have to face either acceptance or rejection. Quite personally, he wasn't ready to take that big step with Kagome. Having her for a friend was enough asking her to be his mate was asking too much. Though he had been got over Kikyo and saw that it all in all had been a total failure. Still going to Kagome would still make her feel like second place and why would she want a hanyou like him when she could have so much better. What if that was true she would have being left him long ago. He knew he was the only one for her and she for him.

Finally arising from the snow and shaking himself off he reenter his brother castle and followed the scent that he fell in love with since he first caught whiff of it. That unforgettable scent of cherries and wildflower. The woman that had ravished his heart and soul who stood by him through the good and bad. The one he loved so much but was really to shy and insecure to tell. If he wasn't he would have told her long ago there was never the Kikyo factor. The only feeling he had for Kikyo was pity, regret and, even still some bitterness. It was like that with Kagome. She was different. Even when she sat him a whole bunch of time or really pissed him off he always loved her. He was only in pain when she was, only sad when she was, and only happy when she was. His lover, friend, and protector.

He came quietly through the slightly cracked jar a revolution within his heart if not this night it would be the day. He stared at he small figure slouched in the giant chaired with the blanket pooled down into her lap. The moonlight glittering on her raven hair causing him to slightly grasp. Koga was right she was a goddess maybe even better than that! He took unsteadily steps forward praying that she wouldn't wake up and start yelling at him.

He was now one an inch away from his Kagome beautiful unearthly like face. He steadily his hand enough as he slowly brushed a strand of her hair away from her face using a single claw.

Inuyasha: (whispering) Such a wonderful face. Your perfect for me.

A crisp winter wind blew into the wind causing Kagome to shiver just slight as she let out a yawn and stretched out her arms. Fluttering her eyes opening to a freaking out Inuyasha from the sudden movements of his loyal friend and lover.

Kagome: Inuyasha, what's up? What are you doing up?

Inuyasha: Kagome… … … I … … … Um

[Chapter nineteenth ends]

{Authoress note: Alright! Finally done and done! With this chapter, I mean! You don't know how much I wanted to work on this story full time like this. I did it all in one day! I really do deserve a cookie! Oh and a review}

[Next chapter: Do I really have to explain? Well I guess I do. Will Inuyasha confess his love to Kagome? Or will something or someone stand between him and her? What about Miroku and Sango? More importantly what going to happen when Shippo and Rin recover from their illnesses? More fluff, angst, drama, and other tear jerkers next time.]
