A New Family

 

Hmm... I wonder where to go next???

 

Summary: You love more than one person, but who do you choose? Kagome as always loved Inuyasha, but on a visit to her old friend she meets Hiei. Falling for him over the duration of the stay, but who does she choose, her new love Hiei or her first love Inuyasha? And Inuyasha has his own choice to make. The dead Kikyo or the living Kagome? Everyone seems to have their own choices to make! But when they make their choices, will it be too late?

 

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Yuyu Hakusho or Inuyasha! I wish I did, but sadly... I don't.

 

Let's talk telepathy

Kagome simply couldn't help it, she started giggling madly. But she also grabbed the kit and hugged him tightly. "Of course I will Shippo!"

 

Shippo had a large smile on his face. "Does that mean you'll adopt me by youkai law?"

 

"How do I do that?"

 

"Well, we cut our palms and put them together. That let's us exchange blood, it'll also allow us to exchange powers."

 

"Alright. We'll do it in the gardens then, ok?"

 

"Sure momma!" He said excitedly. Once they found Rin, they told her what they were going to do and she nodded. Using his claws, Shippo cut a line across his mother's hand, then did the same to his own. They put them together and allowed the blood to mix. Their bodies then began changing, and while it was painful, they didn't make a sound. Kagome's hair grew longer and took on a reddish tent as her ears pointed slightly. Her previously honey brown eyes gained an emerald ring to them and she gained slight claws. Shippo's hair grew longer and turned a black with red tint, his emerald eyes took on a blueish tint, and he gained two tails. Also, he grew to look like a teenager, instead of his previous eight year old look.

 

"Wow... You two look pretty!" Exclaimed Rin. Her own brown eyes glowing in happiness as her shoulder length raven locks fluttered around her. They all giggled at that, and Kagome looked over at her new son. Slight markings were appearing on his cheeks. They were a light green and barely noticeable. Oh how she enjoyed her new heightened senses.

 

Two hours later, and that annoying demon lord was heading toward them. He was once again talking to Mukuro and Yomi. All Kagome could think was damn annoying kitsune. This time he purposely bumped into her. He also smirked at her. "Something wrong ningen? Sesshomaru-sama's not here to protect you this time."

 

"I do not need his protection... least of all from you."

 

Mukuro seemed to be amused, as was Yomi. However, Saida seemed pissed. "You should know your place little girl, and bow to your betters."

 

"When I see one, I shall bow." Instantly she turned to Mukuro and bowed. "My lady." She nodded her head to the goat. "Yomi." Then she turned and began to walk away.

 

"Bitch. I am your better!" He said as he grabbed her. Next thing he knew, he was under attack of blue fox fire. A growling kit stood in front of the woman. "Who the hell are you?"

 

He received a glare from the woman. "I suggest you refrain from using such words in front of my kit."

 

That got everyone's attention. "You took in a kitsune pup?" The other kitsune asked as he laughed at the idea.

 

Now Shippo glared at him. "Miroku and Kikyo were looking for you momma. They said you needed to train now."

 

Kagome nodded to the kit and picked him up. "Then let's go find them."

"This should be your last training session." Kikyo stated in her usual calm and detached manner.

 

"Hai Kikyo." Kagome said as she continued her practicing.

 

"Close our eyes and meditate. Call forth the power from your soul, and allow it to seep throughout your body. Allow it to flow through your very veins." None of the other knew it, but with Kikyo's help, Kagome had learned to force her power through her hands.

 

Kagome closed her eyes and looked to find her powers. It was shimmering pink and it was wrapped around a white sphere. Grasping it in her mind, she tugged. That released her power and she felt it flare throughout her body. Next, she tugged on the white sphere, trying to free it. Slowly it loosened and flowed through her entire being. The power began to seep from her pores as she slowly opened her eyes. Kikyo gasped. "What is it Kikyo?"

 

"Your eyes..." Kikyo slowly shook herself. "They've turned sapphire blue and are flecked with emerald green."

 

Slowly Kagome stood and walked to the pond. What she saw made her gasp. Her once honey brown eyes were indeed blue with flecks of green. He once tanned skin had turned into a pale white while maintaining a golden glow. Then she felt something else. Kikyo was amazed.... She could also feel other emotions bombarding her. "I..." She quickly turned to the other girl. "I can feel other's emotions!"

 

Kikyo's eyes widened. "You're an em-path... That means that you gained empathy when you gained control."

 

Kagome sighed. "Great.... another power that I need to gain control of."

She sighed as she continued to sit through the talks. Inuyasha was simply ignoring people. She had already told them about Naraku, and how he used to be a human bandit. "He is no threat to us." Saida stated.

 

"Yes he is, he is a threat to everyone." Sesshomaru stated.

 

That broke out fights, and Kagome was in pain. Inuyasha was the one that noticed her whimpering. She had shrunk down into her chair and wouldn't quit. "Would you all shut up!" The hanyou shouted, getting everyone's attention before racing over to Kagome. "What's wrong?"

 

"They're all angry." She whimpered out. "I can feel it."

 

Sesshomaru's eyes widened slightly. "When did you gain empathy?"

 

That made everyone's attention snap from the demon lord and back to the girl. "Yesterday..." She managed to sit up since no one was angry anymore, they were all curious. "When I mastered my powers."

 

"Inuyasha, take Kagome to her room."

 

"Right." Inuyasha said as he cradled the girl into his arms and took her from the meeting hall.

An hour later, there was a knock on Kagome's door. Inuyasha had left to go to Kikyo, and Shippo and Rin had come to make sure she was ok. "Will you get that Shippo?"

 

"Hai momma." He said as he hopped off the bed and ran to open the door. "Hello?"

 

Raizen smiled down at the kit. "I came to make sure the girl was ok."

Two Months Later

 

The group was back on the road. The meetings had ended a month prior and Kagome had managed to make friends with Mukuro and Yomi. A battle had ensued at the palace, and she had risked her life for both Shippo and Rin. Then she had somehow thrown a barrier around the entirety of the palace and commanded Inuyasha to used the windscar. That had been the end of Naraku's attacking army.

 

They were currently heading back to Kaede's village so that Kagome could go home for one of her tests. Shippo would be coming with her, but Sesshomaru would be performing their bond before she left. So it wouldn't be long now before she became part of the house of the moon. A funny thing is that that would make her a princess of the western lands. She giggled at that thought. She would also be Sesshou's little sister.

 

It was noon when they finally reached the village. Kaede was amazed at Kagome's changes, but didn't comment much on it. The villagers all bowed to them though. Of course it wasn't often that the lord of the lands entered this village. Then again, had he ever been to it?

 

After gaining an illusion spell from Kaede, Kagome took Shippo and Sesshou and headed toward the well. "It is time, miko."

 

"Hai." Kagome nodded. They performed the bond and Kagome gained inu traits. Her ears were now fully pointed. She wore a large smile as she hugged the dog lord. He also held a smile, though small, it was true and still there.

 

"I need to speak with you about Rin upon your return."

 

"Ok Sesshou." She kissed him on the cheek. "Bye."

 

"Bye."

I was slowly walking home from school, and I was annoyed. The teachers were being quite evil. She should've been paying attention, because she ended up walking into someone. "Oof." She said as she fell to the ground. Looking up, she was caught in the gaze of concerned emerald eyes. "Are you ok miss?"

 

"Yeah, I'm...." Her eyes had moved to the other three and she gave a squeal of delight. "YUSUKE!" She jumped up and hugged him tightly.

 

"Urameshi! What about Botan!" An orange haired fool demanded.

 

Kagome let go of the boy in her arms and looked at him curiously. "Boton? I thought your girlfriend's name was Keiko?"

 

The raven haired, honey eyed boy looked at her curiously before it hit him. "Kagome?" He asked. Last time he saw her was years ago... and she had brown eyes then.

 

She smiled brightly. "Hai. So you do remember me?"

 

"How could I forget?"

 

"Umm... Do you want me to answer that?" She asked with a playful smile.

 

His left hand scratched the back of his neck as he appeared to be in thought. "Now that I think about it, please don't."

 

She giggled at that, before she cocked her head to the side. "I thought you lived on the other side of town now, what're you doing over this way?"

 

"Uh.... I'm guessing that I came to visit you would be a bad excuse?" He laughed sheepishly as he asked.

 

"Yep, considering you had no idea I was here... and that I was in school."

 

Someone cleared their throat, and the two turned their attention to a red head. "Might I inquire as to who this young lady is Yusuke?"

 

"Uh... She's a friend."

 

Kagome rolled her eyes and smacked the back of his head. "I believe he meant my name... and probably how we know each other." Yusuke just grinned goofily at her and shrugged. So she sighed before turning to the others. "My name's Kagome Higurashi and Yusuke and I are old friends."

 

The redhead smiled. "I am Shuichi Minamino. Pleasure to meet you miss Higurashi."

 

She smiled. "Please, call me Kagome."

 

The orange haired one introduced himself next. "I'm the great Kazuma Kuwabara, you're really pretty."

 

A vein twitched as she looked at him after his statement. She yanked her hands away from him and slapped him, knocking him unconscious and causing Yusuke to laugh, Shuichi to chuckle, and Hiei to smirk. "He could've quit drooling." She muttered before turning to the last person. "And you are?"

 

"Hiei."

 

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Have a last name?"

 

"Yes."

 

"Mind telling me, or do you want to be all secretive?"

 

"Hn."

 

She mentally smirked at what her next statement would be. She just knew that she was going to tick him off. "I see, you're too scared to give me your last name."

 

He just glared at her. "Jaganashi."

 

She smiled brightly at him. "See, that wasn't so hard now was it?"

 

"If I was you Kags, I wouldn't push him... he's not very nice." Yusuke said as he pulled her back to him.

 

Kagome simply shrugged him off. "I've dealt with worse." She then noticed something and her eyes widened. "Eeep!!! I have to get home to Shippo!" She turned and quickly hugged Yusuke. "I still live at the shrine. Visit sometime!" With that, she took off towards her house.
