Chapter 2: Kagome's Change

It was dawn in the feudal era as Sesshoumaru stepped out of Kaede's hut with Kagome in his arms. Yes he had two arms. Kagome had restored his arm when they had started training with her fully developed Miko abilities. Rin was trailing to the side of him stumbling sleepily. Just as they got to the clearing that contained the well Shippo attached himself to Kagome. Sesshoumaru could barely suppress the growl that wanted to emerge.

"What do you want Kit?" He asked the orange-brown haired kitsune.

"Can I come with you Sesshoumaru-sama? I don't want to leave Kagome-okaasan." Shippo said looking up at the demon lord.

Sesshoumaru nodded his head in acceptance.

Sesshoumaru placed to two pups in Kagome's arms with Kagome in Sesshoumaru's arms. When that task was done he jumped into the Bone eaters well, which was the time portal to Kagome's time. Kagome was pale and clammy. She was trying very hard to stay alive. She may not have a whole lot to go back to but she still has Rin, Shippo and Sesshoumaru.

She no longer has any of her true blood kin; they had passed away some months ago due to an automobile crash. Not that Sesshoumaru knew what an automobile was. All he knew about it was that it was some sort of transportation.

As they arrived in Kagome's time Sesshoumaru leaped out of the well into the dim well house. Sesshoumaru's senses were immediately filled with the smell of Kagome's world and it wasn't very pleasant. Pollution, smoke and other disgusting scents invaded his senses. He had to tone them down to be able to stand it. He searched the immediate area for any strangers. He found 1 youkai aura's, 1 human aura, 1 almost hanyou aura and another human aura with some demon blood.

~*~In the Higurashi household

Kurama had sensed two youkai presences and two human ones outside of Yusuke's friend house. It was quite early for Yusuke to be up but he was worried for his friend. Yusuke was pacing back and forth trying to convince himself that Kagome was alright and she was probably on her way home right now.

"Yusuke?" Kurama called to his friend.

The 17 year old looked up at the red headed boy that called his name and asked, "What?"

"What is your friend Yusuke?"

"Huh?"

"He mean's is your friend human?" Hiei said from the corner he was in.

"Yeah." Yusuke said slowly, "Why?"

Before either of the two could answer his question the door was kicked open by none other than the handsome demon lord Sesshoumaru. The four were shocked to see the Silver haired, golden-eyed lord. Yusuke was more shocked to see his unconscious friend in that demon's arms. Kuwabara was just well Kuwabara.

Yusuke's body started to glow blue with his spirit energy. He was pissed. Just seeing his best friend in some demons arms unconscious and barely alive was enough to turn him full demon. His hair grew longer but stayed black considering he could control the power and his markings appeared.

"What…The Hell…Are You…Doing…With Kagome…" Yusuke growled out to the demon in front of him his eyes a brilliant red.

"I am trying to save her. Control yourself or you will be endangering Kagome even more." Sesshoumaru said narrowing his eyes at the young man.

`One of his ancestors was of royal lineage I'm sure of that.' Sesshoumaru thought to himself. That is the only way he could have those markings, the markings on his body show he is high class. That is also the only way he could have so much power and he isn't even half-demon.

Before Yusuke could reply Kagome started to murmur something weakly.

"Sesshoumaru, Rin, Shippo, Yusuke…" Kagome mumbled then trailed off.

"Kagome?" Yusuke called to his friend, "Kagome, I'm here."

Kagome was consumed by the darkness. All she could see was the dark abyss of her mind. Was she just part of the long lost oblivion now? Did anyone remember her? Was anyone still there for her? She thought to herself. She was lost and she was scared. She did not want to be alone. Kagome murmured the names of the four people in the world that she had left. Sesshoumaru, Rin, Shippo and Yusuke. Was she truly lost and forgotten. With no response from the four people she started to let herself slip away into the darkness, let herself slip away to death. For it is only in death that you can be truly free. There were people waiting for her in death…But as far as she knew she had nothing left in life.

Kagome's breathing became erratic, and shallow. Her pulse began to drop drastically. She was fading. Shippo whimpered for her to stay; not to leave him. Rin began to cry that her onee-san was leaving her too. Sesshoumaru's eyes lost there hardened edge and began to become worried and frantic. Yusuke was just plain panicking.

"Kagome…" Sesshoumaru whispered. No answer.

Sesshoumaru gently laid her down on the carpeted living room floor completely ignoring the other four strangers in the room. He placed a barrier around himself, Kagome and the children. He took her right wrist in his clawed and slit it. He did the same to his own wrist. He pressed Kagome's wrist to his own and started murmuring an old almost forgotten incantation

As both parties began to glow Yusuke was standing outside of the barrier back to normal pounding on it demanding to be let in. As the glowing finished the barrier was let down and Kagome's eyes started fluttering open. Everyone else except Sesshoumaru stared in shock at the newly changed Kagome. It was obvious the spell that Sesshoumaru used changed her. Sesshoumaru was hoping that she wouldn't be mad that he did what he did.

Kagome stood somewhat shakily with Sesshoumaru's help. Her hair now longer than before down to her knees was silky and soft. It was still obsidian in color with a blue sheen, now there were silvery-white thin streaks highlighted through her hair. Her eyes were now a paler blue then before more of a cornflower blue rather then her sapphire blue. Upon her high cheekbones rested two magenta stripes on each side of her face and a crescent moon, the same color as her stripes, decorating her forehead. Her ears were pointed and her mouth now had sharp canines. Where her once dainty fingernails were, there were now deadly claws. Her wrists also had magenta stripes adorned on them as well as her waist, and ankles. From her backbone there were two silky tails the color of her hair without the streaks and the tips were silvery-white in color.

She looked really hot. She was a bit more petite and lithe now. She was shorter that was for sure. Before she stood at 5'10 now she was 5'4. Her curves were just as they were before, full breast, tiny waist, rounded hips and supple limbs. She was any guy's wet dream. Her muscles however were a bit more toned out then before and she had paled a couple of shades giving her the milky ivory skin. She blinked and you could see the silver eyeliner on her eyelids. Instead of what she was wearing before she was wearing a pure white Kimono made of silk with silver swirls and crescents. It was beautiful and fit her very nicely.

"Mama!!"

"Nee-san!!"

Two voices called out in unison. Kagome turned and caught the two children that came racing at her. Shippo and Rin were both bawling hysterically. They were so scared that they were going to loose her. Kagome held them to her gently and cooed to them.

"I'm alright little ones." She said and almost dropped them.

`Since when was my voice so husky?' Kagome thought to herself. But then again she was a demon now so it was I guess to be expected with her change and all. But it was still kind of shocking to Kagome. She turned to look up at Sesshoumaru and he smiled down at his sister and new heir. He laid a gentle kiss upon her forehead where his mark lay.

"What happened Sesshoumaru?" Kagome asked softly; making her seem more delicate than ever along with her looks she looked extremely harmless.

"I performed a spell that changed you into what you are now an Inu-Youkai, my heir and sister."

She tilted her head to the side curiously; nodded and looked over his shoulder at the four boys that occupied her living room and raised a slim brow. One man was sitting on her couch dressed in a blue jumpsuit drooling and gapping at her. He must have been 6'0 at least he would have dwarfed over her now petite height. He had orange hair done in an Elvis style and beady brown eyes. He was making her extremely nervous.

The other man sitting on the couch was quite literally drop-dead gorgeous. Almost like Sesshoumaru. He had long crimson red hair to a little past his shoulders and beautiful dark emerald green eyes. He adorned a pink uniform that he somehow made look utterly masculine. He was very well built, about 5'10 but seemed to have a very gentle calming aura about him.

The other man brooding in a corner must have been her height possibly shorter he had gravity defying black hair with a white starburst in the middle and ruby red eyes. He was definitely like another Sesshoumaru. Cold, Emotionless and strong. He had some kind of thing under his bandanna. She couldn't quite figure out what it was so she shrugged it off. He was wearing all black except for the white scarf and bandanna.

She turned to the last very familiar young man. He had black hair gelled back giving it a green tint. He was wearing a green jumpsuit and was staring at her with shocked brown eyes. Eyes that were very familiar to her. Kagome put the kid's down gently and stepped around Sesshoumaru. She looked at Yusuke and cocked her head and looked to the floor. Her eyes moved up from looking at her shoes and she peered at him nervously as she gnawed on her lip.

"Yusuke?" Kagome inquired softly, somewhat hesitantly.

"Kagome…" His voice came out in a whisper.

Said woman stepped up so there was about a half a foot between then and tentatively hugged him. As soon as she did that Yusuke's arms came around her and crushed her to him causing Kagome to give a startled yelp and `oomph.' Yusuke buried his nose into her sweet smelling hair. As Kagome's face was buried in the crook of his neck. Yusuke couldn't keep the relief off of his face if he tried.

Sesshoumaru growled at the boy who dared touch what was his. Kagome was his heir therefore a male has to ask his permission before touching her. He heard Kagome's growl that echoed his own but her growl just said to leave him alone. Sesshoumaru brooded silently to himself as he watched his sister be smothered.

"Kagome, I was so worried that you were gonna die." Yusuke said holding his precious best friend close to him.

"I'm a lot harder to kill then that Yusuke…" Kagome said, "But I'm fine just the same, Sesshoumaru wouldn't have let me died."

"Who's Sesshoumaru?" Yusuke asked trying to ignore the jealousy that welled up inside of him.

"Him." Kagome said gesturing to the demon lord that had brought Kagome there.

Yusuke nodded to the demon lord and Sesshoumaru nodded back in acknowledgement.

After Yusuke was done hugging Kagome he looked down at her as she stared right back at him her light blue eyes filled with happiness at seeing him again. It had been quite a long time since they had seen each other. She just enjoyed basking in his company. He was always the strength when she was weak.

Yusuke suddenly started to cry…Not the sobs of the broken hearted but silent tears. Kagome got worried and caught him as he sagged to the ground. She gently held him in her arms as he rested his head in her lap. Kagome did the only thing she could think of that used to calm him. She started to sing. Sing a song that fitted Yusuke and Sesshoumaru perfectly. For the very same, yet different reasons.

(Because You Loved Me By: Celine Dion)

*For all those times you stood by me

For all the truth that you made me see

For all the joy you brought to my life

For all the wrong that you made right

For every dream you made come true

For all the love I found in you

I'll be forever thankful baby

You're the one who held me up

Never let me fall

You're the one who saw me through

Through it all..

You were my strength when I was weak

You were my voice when I couldn't speak

You were my eyes when I couldn't see

You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

You gave me faith `cause you believed

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly

You touched my hand I could touch the sky

I lost my faith, you gave it back to me

You said no star was out of reach

You stood by me and I stood tall

I had your love I had it all

I'm grateful for each day you gave me

Maybe I don't know that much

But I know this much is true

I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak

You were my voice when I couldn't speak

You were my eyes when I couldn't see

You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

You gave me faith `cause you believed

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me

You were always there for me

The tender wind that carried me

A light in the dark shining your love into my life

You've been my inspiration

Through the lies you were the truth

My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak

You were my voice when I couldn't speak

You were my eyes when I couldn't see

You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

You gave me faith `cause you believed

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me

You were my strength when I was weak

You were my voice when I couldn't speak

You were my eyes when I couldn't see

You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

You gave me faith `cause you believed

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me…*

During the song Kagome had been stroking Yusuke's hair and Sesshoumaru had come up to them and placed a hand on her shoulder and sat next to her. Rin and Shippo also curled up by Kagome and Sesshoumaru. Kurama, Hiei and Kuwabara were quite surprised that she could sing so well. Her voice was strong and beautiful. They watched as Kagome stroked Yusuke's hair.

"What's wrong Yusuke?" Kagome asked her once calm friend.

"I was scared Kagome…First with losing Keiko and now almost losing you…"

It was not often that Yusuke admitted to being scared of anything. When he did admit to being scared you did not go and laugh at him. It would have been just downright insensitive. Even Kuwabara knew this. Kagome just listened to her friend attentively.

Yusuke told Kagome about what happened to him and how he came to work for Spirit world, what a spirit detective was and then it got to the hard part. Talking about Keiko. Yusuke told Kagome about how Keiko made him choose between his job working for spirit world and her. He told her about the indecision. And that she choose for him. She choose to cut him loose. He expected Kagome to chastise him about not going after her. But was surprised when she asked instead.

"Can I kill her? Would you be so terribly mad?" Kagome asked Yusuke surprising the other Reikai Tantei.

"Why would you want to kill her?" Yusuke asked shocked.

"Kagome is very…possessive. When someone that she considers `hers' is hurt in any way shape or form she has a tendency to take revenge. She may not be able to keep everyone alive and well safe but she is damned good at revenge." Sesshoumaru filled in.

"Revenge?" Yusuke asked his voice shocked. "You mean you've murdered people? Wait a minute how do you know about demons and stuff? I almost forgot about that." Kagome sweat dropped.

"Well…I guess it's only fair that since you told me your story I should tell you mine."

Kagome then proceeded to explain about Sengoku Jidai, how she got there, what she was doing there and basically her entire life story for the past two years. When she was through everyone was in awe…well at least the Reikai Tantei. Yusuke felt bad because of what happened to Kagome's Families both in the past and the present. And she still had to fight Naraku to. `She isn't going to fight him alone though. I'll make sure of it.' Yusuke thought to himself.

"Kagome-san…What are you going to do now?" Kurama asked.

Kagome turned to him and looked down at the ground. `I don't know…what am I going to do now? Go back to the past? Stay here? I haven't really thought about it…There is still Naraku and my revenge to fulfill…But what about Yusuke…'
