Deadly Feelings

Chapter Eight

 

Summary: She's lost most of her friends and have brought a few back. The quest is finally over, but at a price. Darkness ensues though, and Kagome is going to the same school as her cousin. It also looks like there may be another shot at love.

 

I am rating this fanfic for possible lemons in the future. There is also violent death.

 

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Inuyasha or YuYu Hakusho. I wish I did, but sadly... I don't. I make NO money from the stories. I merely write them for my own enjoyment (and to see if anyone will actually read them).

 

Let's talk telepathically. (Kagome will be talking to herself, so she's color coded.)

//Hiei//

\\Kurama\\

\\Youko\\

 

(Kagome is this color.)

((Her demon is this color.))

(((And her miko/human is this color.)))

((((This happens to be the jewel.))))

(color coding does not work on FF.)

Hiei seemed rather annoyed. He had accompanied the onna back to her house and they picked everyone up. It seemed odd to him that a miko would claim a kit as her son and a neko as a pet. The kit kept jumping into her arms and running around. "I can't wait to see them again!"

 

Kagome laughed softly at him. "You saw him not long before the last time. For him it's been over five hundred years."

 

Shippo pouted at her as he jumped into her arms. "I know, but I still can't wait to see them. And now Sesshomaru is a king!"

 

"Yeah. Remember when he tried to kill us for walking onto his land?"

 

"I remember when he kept trying to kill you to get to Inuyasha. It's funny how many times you tried purifying him. Like that time you just found your powers, and he attempted to get you with his claws."

 

"I still can't believe that every time he came after me, he never succeeded."

 

"I'm glad. If he had succeeded I wouldn't have a momma."

 

"You actually survived an attack from Lord Sesshomaru?"

 

Kagome forgot that Hiei was even there, and his sudden questioning snapped her out of it. "Umm... Yes. I lost count of all the times he attacked me, then he decided I needed training because he wanted to join our group."

 

"Kagome, you were trained by Lord Sesshomaru?"

 

Kagome turned a sad smile to Kohaku. "Yes, and your sister, Sango. Miroku and Kaede helped out with my spiritual powers."

 

Hiei was shocked. The girl had trained under one of the most powerful youkai to ever live. He simply could not believe his ears. He hadn't thought that she could be that powerful. That's when he heard the boy's whispered question. "Do you think I could've saved her if I were there?"

 

He looked over at Kagome to see how she'd respond to the boy. She gave Kohaku a sad smile. "No, you couldn't have. If I was stronger I could have, if I had only released my power like that sooner..." Tears flowed down her face as she thought about how it was all her fault.

 

Shippo hugged her tightly. "Don't cry momma. It's not your fault."

 

"A single arrow Shippo. It only took a single arrow to kill him. I shot it when I was tired and drained, but it didn't work when we first started the fight. How can I not cry when I could've saved them all?"

 

"But you were extremely upset momma, it brought out more of your power. Please don't blame yourself?"

 

"No matter what, it's still all my fault."

They all reached the palace soon after. Of course, the guards were refusing to let them in. "Open the damn doors already! I told you I am LADY Kagome!"

 

"I'm sorry, but no human has ever been named a lady." One of the guards responded.

 

"Yes one has you egotistical moron! I was named lady! Now I demand you let me pass!"

 

"I'm sorry, but there is no lady of the western lands." The other guard told her.

 

To say she was pissed, would be an understatement. Power started coming off of her in purifying waves. "Let. Me. In. Now!"

 

The guards were shaking in fear when a cold and calculating voice sounded not far off. "What is going on here?"

 

The first guard went to his knees before the new arrival. "Forgive us my lord. We were simply trying to get rid of this filthy human. We didn't mean to distract you."

 

Sesshomaru looked over at the little group then back to the guard. "You will let them in this instant."

 

"But my lord, they are mere humans."

 

He pointed to Kagome. "That is the Lady of the West you fool."

 

The guard gulped and turned pale instantly. Kagome smirked at him. "Told ya so." She then followed Sesshomaru into the castle. The others followed them in also. Of course, Kagome still wanted to purify the annoying guards though.

 

"I am curious as to why you are here Kagome."

 

"An annoying little bug wouldn't shut about me coming here." She replied as she growled at a certain flea demon. That action caused Sesshomaru to chuckle as he continued on.

 

"Ah, well I wish to speak with you anyway. Alone." He added as he looked at the fire demon, kitsune kit, neko, and human.

 

"Hai my lord." She said as she nodded to them to let her go. Hiei of course 'hn'ed and followed the slayer and kit outside. "What do you need?" Kagome asked as they reached the library.

 

"You are seventeen now, correct?"

 

"Hai."

 

"Your schooling will end this year then?"

 

"Hai."

 

"I would like you to take over the western lands when you have finished with your schooling. If you wish, you may do so beforehand, and I would also like to formerly adopt you into the family so that you bear the house crest."

 

"I would be honored, and I believe it would be best to wait until I finish high school in order to make my mother happy."

 

"Very well then, we shall proceed with the adoption."

Hiei was sitting in a tree, watching as the two kids played. He was only doing that because he had nothing better to do. Escorting the girl here was done out of curiousity. Wanting to know why she needed here was one thing he was curious about. Whether or not she'd be let in was another. One part of him said that he escorted her here to get to know her better. And he'd admit that he wanted to figure out why she was causing him to act strange.

 

It was about an hour later that he sensed another presence approaching them. Opening his eyes, he saw that it was Kagome, though she looked slightly different. Her hair appeared to have silver tips. She slowly walked up to him. "We can leave now. I've talked everything over with Sesshou and he said I can leave, but I have to visit every now and then."

 

"Hn."

 

Rolling her eyes, she continued onto the children. "Would it be easier to travel if I looked like a demon?"

 

"Probably." Was his simple reply.

 

When they reached the boys, Kagome called them over. "We're leaving now."

 

"Ok momma." Shippo said as he jumped onto Kirara's back. Kohaku nodded and hopped on behind the kit.

 

Kagome closed her eyes and concentrated. (Why isn't this working?)

 

((((Why isn't what working?))))

 

(I want to look kitsune.)

 

((I can help help with that.))

 

(How?)

 

((You decided that I'm kitsune, so it only makes since that I know how to unlock the form.))

 

(Will you do it then?)

 

((Of course, hold on.)) After a few minutes, Kagome could feel her body changing. Tails sprouted as her ears became fluffy and stood on top of her head. ((See, simple.))

 

(Thanks.) Turning back to the present, she opened her eyes to find her son gawking at her. So she cocked her head to the side. "What is it?"

 

"You're a nine tailed kitsune momma!"

 

Looking behind her, she counted. She did indeed have nine tails. With a giggle, she shrugged. "I guess I am."

 

Shippo's eyes positively glowed with admiration. "Does this mean you'll be able to help train me momma?"

 

"I suppose I can."

 

No one noticed that Hiei had been staring at her in near shock. For he hadn't expected her to transform into a humanoid form. Especially such a powerful looking one. A nine tailed kitsune was known to be powerful. Youko only had six tails and he was almost a match for the fire demon himself. It made him wonder how powerful the girl really was if her humanoid form had nine tails to it. Her hair also fell to her knees. All in all, she made a beautiful kitsune.

Later that night, Kagome was at the shrine and was relaxing in the God Tree. She had explained the whole thing with Sesshoumaru to her mother, and the woman had taken it quite well. It helped that Kagome told her they no longer needed to worry about the shrine. For with Inuyasha's belongings, came some things Sesshoumaru helped to get her. He had acted wisely and invested some of Inuyasha's inheritance. That had made it so she was exceptionally rich.

 

It was with that money that she'd be able to do as she pleased. Including helping out with getting whatever the shrine needed. There would be some difficult times ahead for her though. With her grandfather gone, she'd have to take up her duties as the shrine miko. Once she graduated, she'd have to balance that with her duties as lady of the west. Now that would be difficult.

 

Shaking her head, she expelled those thoughts for the time being. Relaxing further, she allowed the concealment spell to drop from her body. Kurama had quickly taught her the spell so that she could hide the markings that had appeared for when lunch was over and she had to return to class. Even when she had taken her humanoid form in demon world, she'd left that spell on. For she had completely forgotten about it.

 

Sighing sadly to herself, she decided to turn back to her humanoid form. Quickly calling on her demon side, she asked it to come out. It was slightly chilly out, so she used her nine tails to wrap around her small frame as a blanket. Laying her head back, she allowed sleep to take her. Blessed oblivion is all she wanted at the moment, so she could forgot all of her worldly troubles.
