Chapter 3:
Arrival to the Western Lands and meet some old friends.
......................
In the castle of the Western Land, Lord Sesshomaru walked out of his office and went toward the diner room which has been change in meeting room for the occasion.
Despite his face wasn't showing any emotions, in the inside, Sesshomaru was really bored by this meeting, the most unpleasant thing of what he could have thought to do today. However, the situation was important and delicate, and it was an obliged passage. Even if that annoyed him to no end, he was at least somehow happy that the reunion was in his own house. If he would have had to go to the castle of one of the others Lords, may be he would say no for this meeting.
He opened the door and entered, moving directly to his chair without even looking at anyone around the table. When he was at his place, he raised his cold golden eyes and inclined slightly the head,indicating that he testified a certain amount of respect and a kind of hello to them. They made all the same towards him. After that, his glance turned to the opposite side of the table, at his left and growled, really unpleased of what he saw : two chairs unoccupied. Apparently, two people are late and the more annoying thing for Sesshomaru was that they have to wait for their arrival.
For the moment, around his table, there is all the others Lords and Ladys from the East, South and North. The only representative of tribes invited found a way to be late !! One of the young around the table said out loud what they all were thinking but it was at this moment that they heard a noise coming from the court, at the enter of the castle....
....................
At the same time, outside....
....................
After a travel really tiring, may be because their lost of practice, since they didn't travel like that since almost one year, Kagome, Shippo and Kirara, flying from Kaede's village, arrived in front of two giants wood doors. Two guards were posted there.
Kirara stopped and put hers paws on the soil to permit Kagome and Shippo to climb off of her. After that, she transformed back to her little form.
With on each shoulder, Shippo and Kirara, Kagome advanced toward the doors. She was nervous. Who wouldn't . She was standing in front of the house of a powerful demon. Ok, may the most powerful youkai of Japan.
When they saw her, the guards seems to be really agitated. They seemed to be on the edge. Something wasn't right. The situation was, may be more complicated than she first through. That wasn't helping the poor young woman to calm down. Kagome decided to speak first :
" I'm here to speak to Sesshomaru." She said, with a voice the less quavering she could.
" Go away human !" Shoot one of the guards.
" You have nothing to do here and don't speak of our Lord so familiarly."
" Like you really know him."
Kagome took a shaky deep breath. Stay calm. She was a girl in mission, she could let them stop her. A girl with a mission, she snickered at herself. She cleared her throat before spoke again. " I know him...More than I would like, so please let me go in."
"We say, go away !!!" They yelled.
With that they went back inside and closed the door behind them, leaving Kagome and the others outside.
After some others arguments, a little voice can be heard. The voice of a little girl, who seemed to have seen who was at the door just before they closed them.
"Let her come inside." She said with a timid voice.
The guards turned toward her and glanced at her really maliciously.
" We don't have to obey and received any orders from you, human." Chuckling darkly.
However, the girl seemed to not see that, and continued to speak to them like anything happened.
" Rin knows the pretty lady. She is nice. She saved and helped Rin and Sesshomaru-sama before." She said, this time a little more forcefully.
" Like we will listen to you and worse believe you, unworthly creature."
At this time, they heard a noise. Or more precisely a growl really angry coming from behind them. And this noise was coming from none other than ...Ah - Uhn. They gulped.
On the other side of the doors, Kagome started to be really piss off. I mean, she tried to be nice and polite. Really she tried. But what did they do? They brushed her away like if she was nothing. She humphed. Now, she was really piss off.
" Open this door band of idiots! I'm here to speak with Sesshomaru, and it is really important.... Don't oblige me to enter by force !!! " She shoot.
One of the guards laughed but stopped at the moment they felt the purificative aura which was coming from the girl. Kirara and Shippo jumped at her feet.
Another growl came from Ah- Uhn and he started to attack one of the guards. The guard, really afraid decided finally to open the door.
" Thank you." Kagome said with a glare to the guards. When she heard.
" Kagome-sama ! Kagome - sama !!"
She raised her glance and saw the little girl running toward her with a warm smile.
"Rin-chan!"
They embraced each other.
" I'm happy to see you! Long time not saw you...you grow up!"
The little girl giggled. "Hai, Kagome-sama. Rin is happy too. Rin missed Kagome-sama a lot! "
She smiled down at her gently. "I miss you too Rin."
At this moment, she can feel something push her shoulder. She turned her head, and she was face to face with one of the head of the dragon.
Kagome got up and giggled.
"I missed you too Ah- Uhn" she said, at the same time that she petted the two heads of the dragon who responded by closing their eyes and make a content noise.
The guards were shocked and didn't dare move. The dragon didn't let anyone close to him beside the little human and their Lord. How this human woman knew so well the two headed dragon.
A voice intervened.
" How could you dare to come in the castle of Lord Sesshomaru, human !" Came a screechy voice.
Everyone turned their head.
" Hello to you too Jaken." Sha said, sarcastically with a glare.
" Go away, you have nothing to do here!"
" it is where you are wrong Jaken, I have things to do here. I'm here to speak to Sesshomaru, and It seems he is in his house since you ,Ah- Uhn and Rin are here too." She said, controlling only slightly her anger.
She put back her big yellow backpack on hers shoulders, and glared down at him. Kirara and Shippo jumped back to one shoulder for each one.
She inhaled sharply. "Can you lead me to him, Jaken?"
" No!!! Your very presence is an insult to my Lord, Human. Leave or I will make you leave !" He shoot with his annoying voice.
" Jaken, don't exhaust my patience, and you know I don't have any towards you, toad, .... And I advice you to don't make the same mistake than Naraku and under estimate me..." She finished, almost darkl
Every youkai can feel the power within her, and Jaken can see this power burning in hers angry eyes. He knew what happened to Naraku and didn't really want to finish like him. No one , no youkai at least, can survive if she became really angry. He gulped soundly.
"Rin knows. Rin knows. Rin will lead Kagome-sama to Sesshomaru-sama" she said happily.
She smiled at her and said tenderly. " Thank you, Rin-chan."
Around, the guards started to speak when they moved away, and climbed the stairs leading inside the castle.
If you would be here, you would hear :
"The ugly toad seems really afraid that she became angry."
" And you see how the dragon acted, ... He never let anyone close to him like that."
" Did you fell how her aura become more powerful when she starts to yell at Jaken?"
" She spoke about Naraku."
" Do you think she is the Miko that everyone spoke about? the Shikon Miko?"
" I hope to never see her really angry and most of everything never against me."
" Why did she want to speak to Lord Sesshomaru?"
" And you see how familiarly she spoke about our Lord...."
" Yes, she didn't use the honorific term."
" The humans, I ate them! They must all disappear."
" If we want to kill her, we have to do that with surprise attack, it's seemed to be the only way."
" Did you see the weird clothes she has... strange, isn't it?"
.

............................
< br> Return in the meeting room…
...........................
" Have you hear that?" inquired one of the Lady.
" And can you fell and smell that?"
" Do you know what happened Lord Sesshomaru?"
Sesshomaru stayed quiet , but in his mind, a lot of things turned : That smell…I know that smell… But where I have smelt it before… I can’t remember… That smell… and without realize, he said in a murmur : I know that smell.
The people the most close of him on the table turned their head towards him and one of them asked. " Do you know, who it is Lord Sesshomaru?"
At this moment, you can hear a little knock at the door. And the door was open revealing Rin and Kagome (with Kirara and Shippo on her shoulders, don’t forget them !).
Kagome leaned lightly down and left a kiss on the forehead of the little girl with a 'thank you'. Rin gave her a bright toothy-gap smile and ran outside. At the same time, Jaken entered the room with:
" Sesshomaru-sama, I…"
" Jaken!"
The sound was so loud and threatening that it made the toad shut his mouth and fall against the wall. Kagome can’t retain herself and giggled.
" Some things never change" she says to herself quietly.
However, she was with Youkais everywhere in the room, and they heard her as clear as light.
After that, golden eyes fall on the woman at the door.
Everyone stared at her with their hands on the hilt of their swords.
" What are you doing here Miko ? " Sesshomaru said in a growl.
Kagome turned around toward him and golden eyes locked with grey-brown eyes. She smiled lightly at him not at all unfazed by his growl and said. "Hello to you too, Sesshomaru."
All the people in the room gasped and opened wide eyes. Not only she seemed to be a Miko, but she seemed to know quite well Lord Sesshomaru and on the top of all, she didn’t use the honorific terms “ sama”.
Some glances turned towards the Lord of the place to see his reaction and returned on the Miko. Some of them were shocked that Sesshomaru hadn't made a move to kill her yet, which was how he always dealed with someone who didn’t show him that he was superior, his lordly superiority. He didn’t seem to want to kill her, and it was the most shocking.
Still with a little smile on her lips, now, Kagome approached the table.
" Long time no see, ne?"
He glared at her, but she ignored him, and her glance looked at everyone around the table and a little timidly, she said.
"Hmm, hi everyone, I didn’t know it was a reunion, sorry to interrupt , I…"
But she stopped when her glance fall in something really familiar and exposed in this room.
She came close to it and murmured. "Tessaiga…"
Hesitant, she posed her hand on the sword and let her fingers slowly brush it. Silent tears started to run freely on her cheek.
" Kagome" Whispered Shippo to try to comfort her a little.
She heard a big growl somewhere behind her.
She removed her hand in a jerk and turned around again. For some minutes, it was like they were the two only persons in this room.
She gave him a little sad smile and brushed her tears, saying.
" Don’t worry Sesshomaru, I’m not here to recover the Tessaiga from you… It, it is yours now… even if you can’t touch it."
He answered her with a new growl.
"don’t make this Sesshomaru repeat himself Miko."
She sighed. Yep, some things never change. She came back towards the table, and look at him in the eyes.
"I’m here to speak to you, Sesshomaru,… to know what is happenning … “the blood of youkais is in danger”. "
The others went out of their stupor.
"What that human, a Miko on top of that, doing here, Lord Sesshomaru?"
" We don’t care why she is here, we kill her and that’s it."
" ‘the blood of youkais is in danger’?" repeated Sesshomaru, raising an elegant eyebrow at her.
Kagome nodded.
" I was sent here to help… to know what’s happening."
" We don’t want the help a mere weak human…"
The young kitsune jumped on the table and started to yell.
" Kagome is not weak! She is the one who killed Naraku, Lord Sesshomaru was there, he knows what happened with his own eyes… My okaa-san is not weak!!!"
However, at this moment, Shippo turned himself towards Kagome…really afraid. I called her my mother in front of everyone and in front of her for the first time. What if she didn't want me now.
" Kagome, I…" He started really ashamed.
But she smiled tenderly at him. Reassured, he jumped on her chest and she gave him a big hug.
Everyone stared.
" it’s an abomination!"
" it’s a human so she is weak, and it is impossible that she was the one who is responsible for the death of that evil hanyou Naraku."
" Little kitsune, you are a shame for every youkais if you really consider her, a human, like your mother… You, a pure blood!"
" I will…"
One of the Lord raised, his hand on the hilt of the sword, ready to use it.
In response, Kirara jumped from her shoulder and transformed in her full form just in from of her, to protect her, hissing.
" everything is ok Kirara, don’t worry."
The neko turned her head towards her mistress. Kagome smiled at her and the youkai returned to her little form. but still prerared to jump in action if necessary.
All the Lords and Ladys looked at Sesshomaru to see his reaction, but he didn’t make a move, his mask showing nothing ( like all the time, such a pity).
" Lord Sesshomaru, it is scandalous . This … this human, this Miko is an insult toward you and she doesn’t show you any respect due to your rang. I will, for you, kill this abomination and this youkai who doesn’t know his place anymore…"
" It’s enough !!!!"
Every glances were on the person who just yelled. But it wasn't not, like you can think Sesshomaru, who stayed quiet like if nothing was happening around him, just raising an eyebrow when she yelled. Yes, it was Kagome, and you can see Kirara and Shippo go away from her a little.
" Shut up! I was sent here to help, to save your ass and in return, I have insults! If it was only on me, ok, I have the practice for that but you are not allowed to insult him!!! It’s just a pup! My pup!!!!"
During her speech, an invisible wind raised and made her hair flying around her (her clothes too). At this moment, her aura flared and began to be visible. Her eyes were not grey-brown anymore they had like a pink flame in them. Slowly, she closed her eyes and started to take big breaths to calm down.
The Lord who had spoken was falling back on his chair when he fell her aura raise so rapidly and violently. Everyone was shocked. Everyone, besides the one at the other side of the table and he said, still calm.
"You said someone send you, Miko."
" Yeah." Breathing deeply.
"Who?"
She reopened her eyes and locked her eyes in his golden ones and said.
"I-InuYasha."
" Lie! The half-breed is dead…"
" Jaken!"
He closed his mouth again. She turned around and glared down at him. Even if she knew that, it’s still hurt to hear it.
She looked at Sesshomaru again.
"he comes to speak to me…in my dreams."
The others Lords pffed and one yell : "You will not listen her, she just says lie on lies, she is crazy, she…"
However, he was cut in his speech when he heard Sesshomaru's growling. Kagome continued like nothing happen.
"He comes several times and the last time, he said that I have to come precisely today to see you…I suppose to be in presence of every Lords, but I don ‘t really know. I come back here, after almost one year, because he asked me to…and another thing. What happen, Sesshomaru? He just said that youkais die or disappear and some humans too… without count when youkais become nervous and attack villages. It is all I know."
He stayed without saying anything, locking his gaze on her, like if he tried to see if it was the truth in her eyes. She finally romped the silence.
" I leave you discuss between you ten and decided if you trust me or not."
" Why ten?"
She smiled. " you eight Lords and Ladys and the twins unborn."
" How she…"
" I will return in the cour with Ah- Uhn and Rin. Sesshomaru, I will wait your decision and if that can help… it is, may be time for you to know who I really am and where I come from… May be this can help you…"
" Are you sure it is a good thing, Kagome? It can be dangerous…"
" Don’t worry Shippo…With Kaede, we protect it…After all, it is my only way to go home."
"Hm, ok."
She raised her glance, but she didn’t receive answer. It wasn't like she was expecting one. She turned around to go out the room when the door opened violently in front of her.
She was shocked… and you could say, the person in front of her was too.
"K-Ka… Kagome?"
" Kouga-kun !"
With that she plunged herself in his arms. After regainning from his stupor, he hugged her back, forcefully.
" I can’t realize that you are really here."
He took a deep inspiration in her hair.
" this scent… Oh how I missed this beautiful scent" He whispered.
" I miss you too, Kouga-kun."
She said, with tears in her eyes. He smelt the salty scent and look at her.
" what is it Kagome?" Brushing the tears which was running now down her cheeks.
"Nothing. I’m just so happy… I can’t help." He smiled at her and embraced her again.
" I didn't think I will ever see you again after…"
" Yeah, me too."
He pulled out. "Why are you here? I mean here, here."
She giggled. " I come to speak to Sesshomaru to learn what happen here."
He laughed and said. " And you arrive just the day of the meeting?"
She smiled. "I better go, they have to decide if they accept my help or not."
" Like it will stop you if they don't."
She giggled, and He grinned down at her.
However, at the moment she started to go towards the exit, he caught her wrist.
She watched him, puzzled.
" Kouga-kun...?"
"I have something important to say to you before you leave."
" Ok."
" You know I wanted… That I wanted you as my mate more than anything else…"
" Kouga..."
" Let me finish, it’s important. (he took a big breath) But after what happened during the fight against Naraku, and when mutt… I mean InuYasha (she smiled sadly) is dead, I start to understand. And little after that, you vanished. I waited, but you know that the tribes had decrease in number because of Naraku and Paradise Birds… The elders wanted me to take a mate. But you have disappeared. I waited as long as I could, even if you don’t see me that way, but I can't help. However, one month ago, I was obliged to take a decision, and I honoured my promise."
"You mean…"
"Yes, he is my mate."
She turned around. " Ayame!"
"Kagome-chan!"
They embraced each other.
"C-congratulation! I’m so happy for you!"
" Thanks a lot, Kagome."
But Kagome frolled.
" What is it Kagome-chan?"
She pulled apart. Kagome had her eyes wide open, like her mouth.
" Amazing!"
And she put one of her hand on the belly of Ayame and giggled.
"Kagome...?"
She smiled at Ayame and turned toward the wolf prince. He glanced at her, puzzled.
She grinned.
" You don’t waste your time to increase the wolf population, like I can see."
He blushed, like Ayame, what made Kagome giggle again.
" How do you know?"
" I can feel the aura of the pups when I’m close enough… even at this state."
" But it…"
"A week, I know" she said with a smile.
Kouga finished to smile to and added proudly. "My pup will be the next leader of our two tribes."
Kagome giggled.
" What is funny, Kagome?"
" No, it’s just you say my pup, like one pup only that’s it."
Ayame put a hand on one of Kagome’s arms.
" Kagome, you mean there is more than one pup?"
Kagome smiled at her. "You are sure that you want to know?"
She nodded her head. She came close to her, her lips almost on her ear and murmured something, really quietly that even Kouga can’t hear.
Ayame, opened wide her mouth and her eyes do the same thing.
" Are you sure Kagome?"
" At least, it is what I feel now."
Ayame became really pale and whispered at herself. " 3…"
Kouga was shocked too but added arrogantly. "You say that like it is a problem."
Kagome looked at him.
"Calm down Kouga-kun. It’s just that may be she is imagining three tiny cute little wolfs like you… that mean they will be really gorgeous but she will have a lot of work."
Kouga’s face turn crissom with her comment but he finally analysed the other part:
" Hey! What do you mean by that !!"
Kagome and Ayame looked at each other and laughed like mad.
A voice is heard behind them:
"We are here Kouga."
" It’s what I see… and why you don’t stay outside?"
Kagome smiled again when she heard another familiar voice.
" Ginka! Hakaku!"
- Sister ! (at the same time)
They hugged her . After pull apart she said. " Come¸ we have to go in the cour. Shippo, Kirara ( when she put her yellow bag on her shoulders)."
They followed her. But Shippo stopped an instant :
" Wolf."
"Runt."
And he ran after Kagome, and the door was closed behind them. Kouga and Ayame turned around and face the table. They saw that every Lords and Ladys were looking at them with shocking eyes (everyone beside our famour Lord of the Western Lands, impassive). Every eye was on them, wide open, the mouths too.

AUTH OR NOTES :
This chapter ends here. Very long don’t you think?? My fingers hurt for tape all this text and my head hurt too to translate everything in english (yes, I’m French, so please don’t be too mad because I know I’m not really gifted for English).
I hope you like this new chapter… For the impatient ones, I can say some clues of what will happen in the next :
You will learn how this ….beep…. of Naraku die. But you will know how InuYasha die too... Don’t worry, it’s nothing like go to hell to go back with the EX- clay pot who is already dead…again I mean. (I know she was just really hungry and not really evil and after Kagome purified the miasma from Naraku she was ALMOST kind (not with her reincarnation, most of the time of course ) but I can’t help, I don’t like her… but nothing will be saying against her too, I swear! I’m not that kind of girl ;)
In this new chapter, (or may be in the next) the Lords and Ladys will learn who is really Kagome and why she is so different from feudal humans…
And, I almost forget, you will know what was the last wish of Inu Yasha (yes if you follow well, now, you know two of them… the third one is still at discover…, and I’m sure you will be surprised!)
I hope to read your comments and reviews really soon… it’s important for me to know what you think of my story … Oh and see ya!
Sweetest Angel

After a travel really tiring, may be because their lost of practice, since they didn't travel like that since almost one year, Kagome, Shippo and Kirara, flying from Kaede's village, arrived in front of two giants wood doors. Two guards were posted there.
Kirara stopped and put hers paws on the soil to permit Kagome and Shippo to climb off of her. After that, she transformed back to her little form.
With on each shoulder, Shippo and Kirara, Kagome advanced toward the doors. She was nervous. Who wouldn't . She was standing in front of the house of a powerful demon. Ok, may the most powerful youkai of Japan.

Another growl came from Ah- Uhn and he started to attack one of the guards. The guard, really afraid decided finally to open the door.
" Thank you." Kagome said with a glare to the guards. When she heard.
" Kagome-sama ! Kagome - sama !!"
She raised her glance and saw the little girl running toward her with a warm smile.

She smiled down at her gently. "I miss you too Rin."
At this moment, she can feel something push her shoulder. She turned her head, and she was face to face with one of the head of the dragon.
Kagome got up and giggled.
"I missed you too Ah- Uhn" she said, at the same time that she petted the two heads of the dragon who responded by closing their eyes and make a content noise.
The guards were shocked and didn't dare move. The dragon didn't let anyone close to him beside the little human and their Lord. How this human woman knew so well the two headed dragon.
A voice intervened.

" Go away, you have nothing to do here!"
" it is where you are wrong Jaken, I have things to do here. I'm here to speak to Sesshomaru, and It seems he is in his house since you ,Ah- Uhn and Rin are here too." She said, controlling only slightly her anger.
She put back her big yellow backpack on hers shoulders, and glared down at him. Kirara and Shippo jumped back to one shoulder for each one.
She inhaled sharply. "Can you lead me to him, Jaken?"
" No!!! Your very presence is an insult to my Lord, Human. Leave or I will make you leave !" He shoot with his annoying voice.
" Jaken, don't exhaust my patience, and you know I don't have any towards you, toad, .... And I advice you to don't make the same mistake than Naraku and under estimate me..." She finished, almost darkl
Every youkai can feel the power within her, and Jaken can see this power burning in hers angry eyes. He knew what happened to Naraku and didn't really want to finish like him. No one , no youkai at least, can survive if she became really angry. He gulped soundly.
"Rin knows. Rin knows. Rin will lead Kagome-sama to Sesshomaru-sama" she said happily.
She smiled at her and said tenderly. " Thank you, Rin-chan."
Around, the guards started to speak when they moved away, and climbed the stairs leading inside the castle.
If you would be here, you would hear :
"The ugly toad seems really afraid that she became angry."
" And you see how the dragon acted, ... He never let anyone close to him like that."
" Did you fell how her aura become more powerful when she starts to yell at Jaken?"
" She spoke about Naraku."
" Do you think she is the Miko that everyone spoke about? the Shikon Miko?"
" I hope to never see her really angry and most of everything never against me."
" Why did she want to speak to Lord Sesshomaru?"
" And you see how familiarly she spoke about our Lord...."
" Yes, she didn't use the honorific term."
" The humans, I ate them! They must all disappear."
" If we want to kill her, we have to do that with surprise attack, it's seemed to be the only way."
" Did you see the weird clothes she has... strange, isn't it?"

............................
< br> Return in the meeting room…
...........................
" Have you hear that?" inquired one of the Lady.
" And can you fell and smell that?"
" Do you know what happened Lord Sesshomaru?"
Sesshomaru stayed quiet , but in his mind, a lot of things turned : That smell…I know that smell… But where I have smelt it before… I can’t remember… That smell… and without realize, he said in a murmur : I know that smell.
The people the most close of him on the table turned their head towards him and one of them asked. " Do you know, who it is Lord Sesshomaru?"
At this moment, you can hear a little knock at the door. And the door was open revealing Rin and Kagome (with Kirara and Shippo on her shoulders, don’t forget them !).
Kagome leaned lightly down and left a kiss on the forehead of the little girl with a 'thank you'. Rin gave her a bright toothy-gap smile and ran outside. At the same time, Jaken entered the room with:
" Sesshomaru-sama, I…"
" Jaken!"
The sound was so loud and threatening that it made the toad shut his mouth and fall against the wall. Kagome can’t retain herself and giggled.
" Some things never change" she says to herself quietly.
However, she was with Youkais everywhere in the room, and they heard her as clear as light.
After that, golden eyes fall on the woman at the door.
Everyone stared at her with their hands on the hilt of their swords.
" What are you doing here Miko ? " Sesshomaru said in a growl.
Kagome turned around toward him and golden eyes locked with grey-brown eyes. She smiled lightly at him not at all unfazed by his growl and said. "Hello to you too, Sesshomaru."
All the people in the room gasped and opened wide eyes. Not only she seemed to be a Miko, but she seemed to know quite well Lord Sesshomaru and on the top of all, she didn’t use the honorific terms “ sama”.
Some glances turned towards the Lord of the place to see his reaction and returned on the Miko. Some of them were shocked that Sesshomaru hadn't made a move to kill her yet, which was how he always dealed with someone who didn’t show him that he was superior, his lordly superiority. He didn’t seem to want to kill her, and it was the most shocking.
Still with a little smile on her lips, now, Kagome approached the table.
" Long time no see, ne?"
He glared at her, but she ignored him, and her glance looked at everyone around the table and a little timidly, she said.
"Hmm, hi everyone, I didn’t know it was a reunion, sorry to interrupt , I…"
But she stopped when her glance fall in something really familiar and exposed in this room.
She came close to it and murmured. "Tessaiga…"
Hesitant, she posed her hand on the sword and let her fingers slowly brush it. Silent tears started to run freely on her cheek.
" Kagome" Whispered Shippo to try to comfort her a little.
She heard a big growl somewhere behind her.
She removed her hand in a jerk and turned around again. For some minutes, it was like they were the two only persons in this room.
She gave him a little sad smile and brushed her tears, saying.
" Don’t worry Sesshomaru, I’m not here to recover the Tessaiga from you… It, it is yours now… even if you can’t touch it."
He answered her with a new growl.
"don’t make this Sesshomaru repeat himself Miko."
She sighed. Yep, some things never change. She came back towards the table, and look at him in the eyes.
"I’m here to speak to you, Sesshomaru,… to know what is happenning … “the blood of youkais is in danger”. "
The others went out of their stupor.
"What that human, a Miko on top of that, doing here, Lord Sesshomaru?"
" We don’t care why she is here, we kill her and that’s it."
" ‘the blood of youkais is in danger’?" repeated Sesshomaru, raising an elegant eyebrow at her.
Kagome nodded.
" I was sent here to help… to know what’s happening."
" We don’t want the help a mere weak human…"
The young kitsune jumped on the table and started to yell.
" Kagome is not weak! She is the one who killed Naraku, Lord Sesshomaru was there, he knows what happened with his own eyes… My okaa-san is not weak!!!"
However, at this moment, Shippo turned himself towards Kagome…really afraid. I called her my mother in front of everyone and in front of her for the first time. What if she didn't want me now.
" Kagome, I…" He started really ashamed.
But she smiled tenderly at him. Reassured, he jumped on her chest and she gave him a big hug.
Everyone stared.
" it’s an abomination!"
" it’s a human so she is weak, and it is impossible that she was the one who is responsible for the death of that evil hanyou Naraku."
" Little kitsune, you are a shame for every youkais if you really consider her, a human, like your mother… You, a pure blood!"
" I will…"
One of the Lord raised, his hand on the hilt of the sword, ready to use it.
In response, Kirara jumped from her shoulder and transformed in her full form just in from of her, to protect her, hissing.
" everything is ok Kirara, don’t worry."
The neko turned her head towards her mistress. Kagome smiled at her and the youkai returned to her little form. but still prerared to jump in action if necessary.
All the Lords and Ladys looked at Sesshomaru to see his reaction, but he didn’t make a move, his mask showing nothing ( like all the time, such a pity).
" Lord Sesshomaru, it is scandalous . This … this human, this Miko is an insult toward you and she doesn’t show you any respect due to your rang. I will, for you, kill this abomination and this youkai who doesn’t know his place anymore…"
" It’s enough !!!!"
Every glances were on the person who just yelled. But it wasn't not, like you can think Sesshomaru, who stayed quiet like if nothing was happening around him, just raising an eyebrow when she yelled. Yes, it was Kagome, and you can see Kirara and Shippo go away from her a little.
" Shut up! I was sent here to help, to save your ass and in return, I have insults! If it was only on me, ok, I have the practice for that but you are not allowed to insult him!!! It’s just a pup! My pup!!!!"
During her speech, an invisible wind raised and made her hair flying around her (her clothes too). At this moment, her aura flared and began to be visible. Her eyes were not grey-brown anymore they had like a pink flame in them. Slowly, she closed her eyes and started to take big breaths to calm down.
The Lord who had spoken was falling back on his chair when he fell her aura raise so rapidly and violently. Everyone was shocked. Everyone, besides the one at the other side of the table and he said, still calm.
"You said someone send you, Miko."
" Yeah." Breathing deeply.
"Who?"
She reopened her eyes and locked her eyes in his golden ones and said.
"I-InuYasha."
" Lie! The half-breed is dead…"
" Jaken!"
He closed his mouth again. She turned around and glared down at him. Even if she knew that, it’s still hurt to hear it.
She looked at Sesshomaru again.
"he comes to speak to me…in my dreams."
The others Lords pffed and one yell : "You will not listen her, she just says lie on lies, she is crazy, she…"
However, he was cut in his speech when he heard Sesshomaru's growling. Kagome continued like nothing happen.
"He comes several times and the last time, he said that I have to come precisely today to see you…I suppose to be in presence of every Lords, but I don ‘t really know. I come back here, after almost one year, because he asked me to…and another thing. What happen, Sesshomaru? He just said that youkais die or disappear and some humans too… without count when youkais become nervous and attack villages. It is all I know."
He stayed without saying anything, locking his gaze on her, like if he tried to see if it was the truth in her eyes. She finally romped the silence.
" I leave you discuss between you ten and decided if you trust me or not."
" Why ten?"
She smiled. " you eight Lords and Ladys and the twins unborn."
" How she…"
" I will return in the cour with Ah- Uhn and Rin. Sesshomaru, I will wait your decision and if that can help… it is, may be time for you to know who I really am and where I come from… May be this can help you…"
" Are you sure it is a good thing, Kagome? It can be dangerous…"
" Don’t worry Shippo…With Kaede, we protect it…After all, it is my only way to go home."
"Hm, ok."
She raised her glance, but she didn’t receive answer. It wasn't like she was expecting one. She turned around to go out the room when the door opened violently in front of her.
She was shocked… and you could say, the person in front of her was too.
"K-Ka… Kagome?"
" Kouga-kun !"
With that she plunged herself in his arms. After regainning from his stupor, he hugged her back, forcefully.
" I can’t realize that you are really here."
He took a deep inspiration in her hair.
" this scent… Oh how I missed this beautiful scent" He whispered.
" I miss you too, Kouga-kun."
She said, with tears in her eyes. He smelt the salty scent and look at her.
" what is it Kagome?" Brushing the tears which was running now down her cheeks.
"Nothing. I’m just so happy… I can’t help." He smiled at her and embraced her again.
" I didn't think I will ever see you again after…"
" Yeah, me too."
He pulled out. "Why are you here? I mean here, here."
She giggled. " I come to speak to Sesshomaru to learn what happen here."
He laughed and said. " And you arrive just the day of the meeting?"
She smiled. "I better go, they have to decide if they accept my help or not."
" Like it will stop you if they don't."
She giggled, and He grinned down at her.
However, at the moment she started to go towards the exit, he caught her wrist.
She watched him, puzzled.
" Kouga-kun...?"
"I have something important to say to you before you leave."
" Ok."
" You know I wanted… That I wanted you as my mate more than anything else…"
" Kouga..."
" Let me finish, it’s important. (he took a big breath) But after what happened during the fight against Naraku, and when mutt… I mean InuYasha (she smiled sadly) is dead, I start to understand. And little after that, you vanished. I waited, but you know that the tribes had decrease in number because of Naraku and Paradise Birds… The elders wanted me to take a mate. But you have disappeared. I waited as long as I could, even if you don’t see me that way, but I can't help. However, one month ago, I was obliged to take a decision, and I honoured my promise."
"You mean…"
"Yes, he is my mate."
She turned around. " Ayame!"
"Kagome-chan!"
They embraced each other.
"C-congratulation! I’m so happy for you!"
" Thanks a lot, Kagome."
But Kagome frolled.
" What is it Kagome-chan?"
She pulled apart. Kagome had her eyes wide open, like her mouth.
" Amazing!"
And she put one of her hand on the belly of Ayame and giggled.
"Kagome...?"
She smiled at Ayame and turned toward the wolf prince. He glanced at her, puzzled.
She grinned.
" You don’t waste your time to increase the wolf population, like I can see."
He blushed, like Ayame, what made Kagome giggle again.
" How do you know?"
" I can feel the aura of the pups when I’m close enough… even at this state."
" But it…"
"A week, I know" she said with a smile.
Kouga finished to smile to and added proudly. "My pup will be the next leader of our two tribes."
Kagome giggled.
" What is funny, Kagome?"
" No, it’s just you say my pup, like one pup only that’s it."
Ayame put a hand on one of Kagome’s arms.
" Kagome, you mean there is more than one pup?"
Kagome smiled at her. "You are sure that you want to know?"
She nodded her head. She came close to her, her lips almost on her ear and murmured something, really quietly that even Kouga can’t hear.
Ayame, opened wide her mouth and her eyes do the same thing.
" Are you sure Kagome?"
" At least, it is what I feel now."
Ayame became really pale and whispered at herself. " 3…"
Kouga was shocked too but added arrogantly. "You say that like it is a problem."
Kagome looked at him.
"Calm down Kouga-kun. It’s just that may be she is imagining three tiny cute little wolfs like you… that mean they will be really gorgeous but she will have a lot of work."
Kouga’s face turn crissom with her comment but he finally analysed the other part:
" Hey! What do you mean by that !!"
Kagome and Ayame looked at each other and laughed like mad.
A voice is heard behind them:
"We are here Kouga."
" It’s what I see… and why you don’t stay outside?"
Kagome smiled again when she heard another familiar voice.
" Ginka! Hakaku!"
- Sister ! (at the same time)
They hugged her . After pull apart she said. " Come¸ we have to go in the cour. Shippo, Kirara ( when she put her yellow bag on her shoulders)."
They followed her. But Shippo stopped an instant :
" Wolf."
"Runt."
And he ran after Kagome, and the door was closed behind them. Kouga and Ayame turned around and face the table. They saw that every Lords and Ladys were looking at them with shocking eyes (everyone beside our famour Lord of the Western Lands, impassive). Every eye was on them, wide open, the mouths too.

AUTH OR NOTES :
This chapter ends here. Very long don’t you think?? My fingers hurt for tape all this text and my head hurt too to translate everything in english (yes, I’m French, so please don’t be too mad because I know I’m not really gifted for English).
I hope you like this new chapter… For the impatient ones, I can say some clues of what will happen in the next :
You will learn how this ….beep…. of Naraku die. But you will know how InuYasha die too... Don’t worry, it’s nothing like go to hell to go back with the EX- clay pot who is already dead…again I mean. (I know she was just really hungry and not really evil and after Kagome purified the miasma from Naraku she was ALMOST kind (not with her reincarnation, most of the time of course ) but I can’t help, I don’t like her… but nothing will be saying against her too, I swear! I’m not that kind of girl ;)
In this new chapter, (or may be in the next) the Lords and Ladys will learn who is really Kagome and why she is so different from feudal humans…
And, I almost forget, you will know what was the last wish of Inu Yasha (yes if you follow well, now, you know two of them… the third one is still at discover…, and I’m sure you will be surprised!)
I hope to read your comments and reviews really soon… it’s important for me to know what you think of my story … Oh and see ya!
Sweetest Angel
