((Kagome speaking out loud with her mind))

It didn't take too long for them to return to the palace. Upon doing so, Kagome asked a servant to take the two boys to her room while she went to speak with Sesshoumaru. Said servant nodded and did as asked. Hiei disappeared, probably going to Youko. The miko easily made her way to the study and knocked. Upon hearing 'enter', she stepped inside. "The jewel is whole and I brought Kohaku and my younger brother back with me. I saved Kohaku from Naraku's clutches and my family except for my brother has perished."

 

"Very well. You have this Sesshoumaru's permission to keep them here."

 

"Thank-you, Sesshoumaru-sama." With a bow, she left to find her children.

"How was your time with the miko, Hiei?" The silver kitsune asked as he reclined on the bed.

 

"Interesting."

 

"How so?" Kuronue asked as he plopped down gracefully beside the kitsune.

 

"She is strong for a human."

 

"Is the fire apparition starting to respect a human girl?" The kitsune asked with a smirk.

 

"I hold no respect for any ningen." The demon stated with a glare.

 

"Come on Hiei, ningens can be useful." Kuronue stated with a smirk.

 

The fire demon merely scoffed at him. "Not that I've ever seen."

 

"Maybe you've just never looked."

 

Yomi entered the room at that moment. "Who'd want to look? Female ningen can be used for release, but they're still horrid creatures. With their detestable smells."

 

"They'll never learn the fun uses for ningen females." Youko said as he shook his head at them.

"What are you doing?" Kiyoshi asked as he entered his mother's room to find two unknown boys inside.

 

"Waiting for Kagome to get here." The one with violet eyes said as he sighed and fell onto the bed.

 

"Why are you waiting in her room?" It was at that question that the other children came in. Including Rin.

 

"Kohaku?"

 

The boy smiled slightly at the little girl. "Hello Rin."

 

"Did Kagome-sama bring you here?"

 

"Hai."

 

The girl's eyes then moved over to the other boy as she looked him over. "You look kinda like Kagome-sama."

 

"I think I'll take that as a compliment." The boy said as he looked at the girl. "She's my older sister."

 

"Then you're Souta?" The little girl asked happily.

 

"Hai."

 

Kagome entered at that moment. "Seems like everyone's here already." She stated with a slight giggle. "Kids, this is my little brother Souta and that's Kohaku. He's the little brother of a good friend of mine."

 

Souta was just looking at her. "I could make out maybe two words of that." He said with a laugh.

 

"I couldn't make out any." Kohaku mumbled.

 

"It's kitsune, and Hikari taught Rin. Kiyoshi can teach you if you ask him nicely." The little girl said as two more little girls joined her.

 

"Why don't you introduce yourselves before we get into learning kitsune?" The miko suggested.

 

The oldest looking kitsune nodded and stepped forward, bowing his head slightly. "I am Kiyoshi."

 

"Hikaru." Said another male silver kitsune.

 

"Hikari." Said a female kitsune.

 

"I am Akihiro." Said another demon. He looked kinda like Inuyasha but not.

 

"Hideaki." Said another boy who had narrowed eyes focused on the two human boys.

 

"My name's Shiori." Said a little girl with pure white hair and violet eyes.

 

"Rin's name is Rin." The little girl said happily. She then walked over to Souta. "You're going to be Rin's new friend, right?"

 

"I suppose I am." The boy said as he looked to Kagome, who gave a nod.

 

"You look to mother for permission on who to befriend?" Hideaki asked, surprised.

 

"Mother?" Souta questioned as he looked to his sister. "Ok, I could tell Kiyoshi, Hikari, and Hikaru are the three you adopted, and Shiori by her hair, so does that mean you adopted more?"

 

Kagome nodded her head and pointed to two boys. "Hideaki and Akihiro."

 

Souta just shook his head. "You already have lots of kids, and I still don't have a cool brother-in-law." He whined.

 

"Sesshoumaru-sama adopted Kagome-sama though. Does that make Sesshoumaru-sama your brother?" Rin asked as she looked between the miko and the older boy.

 

"Not sure what that'd make him and I, but doesn't matter right now. I'm tired."

 

Kagome shook her head at that. "Rin." The girl immediately turned toward her. "Can you take them to the room by Kiyoshi's? They'll be sharing it for now."

 

"Hai Kagome-sama." The little girl said as she grabbed the hand of each boy. "Rin will take you to your room." She said happily as she began pulling them outside.

 

"So that was your brother, mommy?" Hikari asked as she jumped into the miko's arms.

 

"Yes. He's rather sweet once you get to know him. Sango said Kohaku was as well."

It was later in the night when two silver haired demons met in the study. "When will you be prepared to leave?"

 

"We could leave tonight if you wished. We'll have to return to our hide out and gather a few things, and some knowledge. Then we can head out."

 

"You'll be taking the girl with you." Said the stoic one.

 

The other licked his lips at that. "She looks quite tasty."

 

"You shall refrain from trying anything with the miko." The stoic one snarled.

 

"I shall do so, only if she wishes me not to. Other than that, you can't stop me."

 

"I won't need to, she will." The stoic one stated with a smirk. "It'll be funny to see the king of thieves turned to ash."

 

"I think it'll be funny to have the western miko as a partner." The other one said with a smirk as the other growled. "Come now Fluffy, it will be wonderful and I'll make sure she enjoys it."

 

"I told you not to call this Sesshoumaru 'Fluffy', and you are not to touch the miko without her permission. You will behave yourself Youko."

"It's early." Kiyoshi stated as he looked out at the sky. It was still dark, and some stars were still twinkling in the twilight of the predawn sky.

 

"We'll need an early start." Kagome said as she looked out at the sky as well.

 

"Just remember to be careful and to stay away from… well, all of them when alone."

 

The miko giggled slightly at that as she moved over to her desk and picked up several beaded necklaces. "Let's just say they'll be getting pretty necklaces if they tick me off too much."

 

The kit pouted before feigning sadness. "My mother is such a cruel being."

 

"Of course I am. I am the evil miko!"

 

Her words brought the kit into a fit of giggles as he tumbled from his seat. "You're funny momma."

 

"I'm glad that I could make you laugh." She said with a slight smile playing across her lips.

 

The kit simply sat there for a few moments as he looked into her eyes. When he spoke, his voice held curiosity and slight sadness. "Are you happy momma?"

 

The question had caught her off guard, and she ended up looking at the boy in a questioning way. "I am content."

 

"That's not what I asked." The boy stated as he looked up at her.

 

Her reply was a sigh. "I lost everything I held to dear only to come across a small group of wounded kitsunes in the woods." She said as she looked at him. "In my time I am too young to have so much responsibility, and yet I've taken on so much. Now I have to go on a quest to stop a demon that rose because of my previous incarnation, I have to stop this demon, and I have to destroy him. I also have to put my previous incarnation to rest when all I ever wanted was to have Inuyasha love me and be together with him once we defeated Naraku and reassembled the jewel. As it is, most would be lucky to not be depressed. But I am content with the knowledge that I have all of you with me."

 

"We're your responsibilities then?"

 

"You make me happy and are a responsibility that I gladly accept." She said as she smiled at him.

“She's slowing us down.” Yomi grumbled as the group moved through the forest.

 

Said `she' heard him and grumbled about him talking too much. Kuronue heard this and snickered. Even Youko smirked. “If you want to hurry, then say so, I am capable of going faster than this pace.”

 

“Then hurry your ass up.” The goat demon grunted out as he took off.

 

“Could've said `please'.” She mumbled as she took off after them. All but Hiei seemed surprised that she could keep up with the pace the goat set. And so, he turned it up a notch. That led to Kagome growling and simply going full speed.

 

“You're pretty fast for a human.” Kuronue commented.

 

“Thanks.” She mumbled out as she sighed.

 

“Something wrong?”

 

“Nope, I'm just used to being carried when going after some sort of rumor.” She said a bit sadly.

 

Youko turned to look at her for a moment. “Since when can you talk without hurting your throat?”

 

“I'm not talking. I'm projecting my thoughts.” She said happily. “And pretending to talk.”

 

“Where'd you learn to do that?” Kuronue questioned.

 

She simply smiled in a mysterious way. “My secret.”

Here is chapter seven, and while a little short, it's better than nothing! I hope you enjoy it, and I'll try to make the next one longer. I've been busy as of late with being dragged to football games and needing to go dress shopping for homecoming. I needed new shoes and everything, and I even have a date to it! He's… a year younger than I am, but he's awesome! In fact, he kinda reminds me of Miroku (minus the grabbing girl's butts part).
