Shikon Miko
Chapter II
Meeting The Girl
 
In the last chapter, I was going to have Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku remain alive, but I decided to kill them off for some reason. It was going to be that she was still in love with Inuyasha and he was making his choice between her and Kikyo while she was gone and meeting the yuyu gang. Let me know what you think of the idea, and maybe I'll turn it into a story...

The yuyu gang stood before Koenma's desk looking like they'd just been through hell, and in truth they had. A demon that had been causing trouble in Ningenkai had been their mission, and they had to track him through the Makai. He had pulled dirty tricks and thrown many powerful demons in their way, but finally they had caught up to him. Considering he was actually an S-class instead of the B-class Koenma had claimed him to be, the battle was long, hard, and tiring.
 
"Can we go home now toddler? I'm already going to be in fuckin trouble with my mom as it is!"
 
"Yusuke, will you please calm down? And yes, you can go home." Koenma said as he had Botan make a portal for them.
 
"Everyone wanna come to my house? I can offer a shower and a place to sleep now." Yusuke commented.
 
Kuwabara snorted. "Just how can you do that Urameshi? You live in an apartment with your mother."
 
"Not anymore." Yusuke muttered darkly. "I have a new step dad. His name's Sanosuke Takahashi and he owns Takahashi Inc. Now mom and I live with him."
 
"You don't sound like you like him much." Kurama commented.
 
"I don't. I actually hate the guy." Without realizing it, they were all headed toward his new house. "Here we are." He said when they reached the giant mansion like house.
 
"Whoa... it's huge." Kuwabara said, looking at the building with wide eyes.
 
"I don't remember the forest being there...." Yusuke commented as he looked around "or the dojo for that matter... hell this place was barren." A giggling noise caught their attention and they turned to see a little girl. She had black hair that fell to her back, doe brown eyes, the sweetest smile, and seemed to be about five or six years old. "Who're you?"
 
She just giggled again and shook her head. They heard a boy shouting a name and turned to see a kitsune pup running from the forest. "Rin!" He stopped when he saw the group of boys, and his eyes widened. Quickly he placed himself between them and the girl. "What are you doing here demons?"
 
Now the boys were surprised. A demon child is trying to protect a human one? That just made no sense. Yusuke was the first to come out of his stupor. "I should be askin what you're doin here. I live here."
 
Shippo cocked his head to the side and looked at the boy. His eyes widened as recognition set in. "Atsuko's son?"
 
Yusuke slowly nodded. "How do you know my mother?" He asked in suspicion.
 
Shippo sighed. "I didn't know you'd be hanyou." That got the other guys attention as the kit turned to address the girl. "Get momma and tell her to come here." The little girl nodded and ran off into the house, then the kit turned back to the others. "You're good demons, right?"
 
Kurama was just about stunned speechless. "Hai, we're good." He said as he approached the boy. "What's a kit doing here, and in Ningenkai no less?"
 
"Human world?" Shippo questioned. "Is there another world?"
 
"Quit pretending you don't know kit." Hiei interrupted.
 
"But I really don't know..." The kit whined. "I wonder if momma knows... Are there other worlds besides this one?" He started asking excitedly.
 
"Calm down Shippo." Came a soft voice as a young woman walked up, the little girl from earlier in her arms. She turned to look at the boys and spotted Yusuke. "You must be Atsuko's son." She said as she reached out to shake his hand.
 
He nodded as he shook it. "Hai, who're you?"
 
Kagome giggled, and to the guys thought it sounded heavenly to their ears. "My name's Kagome, and I temporarily live here. This is Rin and Shippo, my children."
 
"You have children?" Yusuke questioned. "You look like you're only sixteen."
 
Kagome smiled sadly. "I am. Does that matter?"
 
"Well, you're too young to have kids." Kuwabara answered.
 
Kagome giggled and shook her head. "I didn't have them, but they are mine none the less."
 
"How did you come to adopt the boy?" Kurama asked curiously. His kind didn't tend to trust humans, especially at such a young age.
 
Kagome smiled sadly. "His father was killed and my friend and I helped him avenge the death." Noticing Shippo sadden, she pulled him closer and stroked his hair soothingly.
 
"And the girl?" Kuwabara asked.
 
"Her family was killed and my friend took her in. He became her father... He died a month ago, so now she's mine, my responsibility."
 
"Not many your age would be willing to take on two children." Kurama commented.
 
Kagome merely smiled. "Compared to other things I've done, taking care of these two is a piece of cake... unless you give Shippo chocolate." She giggled at the boy's pout. "Perhaps we should continue this inside. You appear to be wounded... My guess would be from a battle. I suggest you shower, then I can tend your wounds."
 
"Why would you do that?" Kurama asked with narrowed eyes.
 
"Don't want father seeing you like that." Kagome responded as she walked toward the house.
 
"Should we follow her?" Kuwabara asked.
 
"She's hiding something." Hiei stated.
 
"I think we can trust her." Yusuke said as he followed the girl into his house.
 
"Let's follow him before he gets himself into trouble." Kurama said as he started after them.

It took about half an hour for the four boys to shower and return to the living room. Kagome sat in there with a bag that held ample medical supplies for their wounds. The strange thing, was that there were also herbal remedies. Yusuke fell onto the couch beside her and smirked. "You can fix me up first so the others know you won't kill them, and while you do, mind tellin us how you know of demons and why you're stayin in my house?"
 
"Sure." She giggled as she got to work. He had some pretty nasty gashes, and she had to clean them all out before she did anything else. "As for why I'm in our house..." She sighed. "My father said if I didn't visit with him he'd take custody of me from mom. Your step father is my father." She said.
 
Yusuke gaped at her. "The bastard's your father?"
 
Kagome smiled at him. "Take it you don't like him much?"
 
"Not really." He growled. "He's a dick and an asshole."
 
"You shouldn't talk like that." Said a boy as he entered the room, somehow balancing five drinks. "It's not nice to curse in front of a lady."
 
"Since when am I lady?" Kagome teased the boy as she carefully took three of the drinks and set them on the table. "Hmm... Kohaku?"
 
The boy blushed and set the drinks down. He mumbled something along the lines of "when weren't you?" As he left, only to return minutes later with another boy.
 
Kagome giggled at him. "These are my brothers, Souta and Kohaku." She pointed to them as she named them.
 
"Is it true they're demons?" Souta asked suddenly, causing Kagome to giggle again.
 
"If I say yes, you're not going to start idolizing them, are you?"
 
This time Souta blushed as Kohaku laughed. "I didn't idolize anyone."
 
"You did too." Kagome said as she stuck her tongue out. She turned quickly from her brother's glare and continued working on Yusuke's wounds.
 
"So you're my step sister, and these are my step-brothers?"
 
"Yes to the first part and no to the second. Souta has a different father. Kohaku is kinda my responsibility, but he's like a brother to me. He was my best friend's younger brother, but she and her fiance passed away recently, leaving him in my care."
 
Kuwabara looked at her strangely. "Didn't you say that little girl's adoptive father passed away recently too?"
 
That had the four teen boys looking at her strangely. "Yes..."
 
"What happened to them?" Kurama asked with narrowed eyes.
 
Kohaku tensed at that question, not ready to relive that moment. Though pictures flooded his mind of how he could do nothing but watch as his sister was struck down. "Sango..." He called out hoarsely as he fell to his knees, tears coming to his eyes.
 
Kagome reacted in an instant, dropping what she was doing and flying to the boy's side. Bringing his head to rest upon her shoulder, she stroked his hair and whispered soothing words into his ear. "I'm here Kohaku, I'm right here. You don't have to be scared, I'll protect you."
 
"He... he took them from me though..." Kohaku was crying now.
 
The yuyu gang's attention turned from them and to a small neko demon as it entered the room. "Kitty!" exclaimed Kuwabara when he saw it.
 
Kagome looked up and smiled at the cat as she gently soothed Kohaku. He was now almost asleep. "Kirara, can you take Kohaku to bed for me?" The cat meowed and with a blast of fire, transformed into her larger form. Thus causing Kuwabara to jump back and the other three to tense. Kagome slowly lifted Kohaku onto her back and pet her. "Thank-you." She whispered as the feline left.
 
"You have a demon cat?" Kurama asked.
 
"Nope, that was a fish." Kagome snapped.
 
Kurama's eyes widened, not having expected her to snap. "Why are you angry with me?"
 
"You brought up Sango's death, that's why! It happened just last month! And you brought it up in front of her little brother who watched the damn demon kill her and Miroku!" Turning back to Yusuke, she finished his wounds and turned a glare on the green eyed red head.
 
She walked toward Hiei who glared at her. "I will heal on my own onna."
 
Kagome glared at him now. "One: I don't care that you'll heal on your own, I'm tending your wounds, two: My name is Kagome, not that complicated, use it, three: take the stick outta your ass, sit down, shut up, and let me bandage your wounds or I'll give you more!" The power from her aura broke through her shielding, making the gang gape at her. The demons amongst them backed away from her, except Hiei who was already against a wall.
 
Not willing to get himself purified, he complied and sat down. "Hn."
 
"You're a miko!" Kurama exclaimed as he stared wide eyed at her.
 
"Does that matter?" Kagome asked innocently as she cleaned Hiei's injuries, then bandaged them. Of course she had to try to not drool when he took his shirt off for her to look at the injuries.
 
"Considering miko hate youkai, it does."
 
"Do I look like I hate youkai?" Kagome hissed at the fox demon.
 
Rin and Shippo walked in at that point. "Why are you yelling momma?"
 
"I was just trying to get my point across to the kitsune sweetie."
 
Shippo giggled. "Did you ever get the other three's names?"
 
"Not yet." She turned back to her bandaging. "Do you have a name, or should I make one up for you?" She asked the spiky haired demon before her.
 
"Hiei." He growled out at her.
 
"Fox, have a name?"
 
Said boy glared at her. "Shuichi Minamino. People who know about my demonic aspect call me Kurama."
 
After finishing placing bandages on Hiei, she turned to the human boy. "You have a name?"
 
"I am the Great Kazuma Kuwabara...." he got down on one knee before her "will you be my girlfriend?"
 
Time seemed to stop as tears came to her eyes. She slapped him even as she said another's name. "Miroku..." She seemed to be shaking. She didn't want to deal with any of this right now. Images of the monk, slayer, and her love flashed through her mind. As well as images of her adopted brother, before a picture of a certain smiling hanyou popped into her head. "Inuyasha..."
 
They all caught her whisper. Her voice filled with pain, love, hurt, and something else. Next thing any of the guys knew, she was falling towards the floor. Yusuke reacted quickly and caught the now unconscious girl. Twin shouts of 'momma' were heard as both children raced to her side. "What the fuck happened?"
 
"Quit reminding her of the past!" Shippo growled as he turned to them. Kuwabara had a hand on his cheek as he looked at the girl. She had called him Miroku. Shippo walked over to him and kicked him... hard. He used his youkai strength to do it. "Never ask my mother that question again. I may be little, but I can kill you." The kit said darkly as he returned to Kagome's side.
 
Kurama looked at the kit in shock. Normally kits weren't so protective of their parents. Then again normally a human miko wouldn't take in a kit. Rin was shaking Kagome and crying. "Momma! Please wake up momma! Don't leave me! I'll be a good girl!"
 
Her calls got the attention of the yuyu gang as they all thought that she couldn't talk. Shippo walked over to her and hugged her. "It's ok Rin. Momma's just sleeping." He whispered to her. She nodded and cuddled next to her mother, who curled closer to the little girl and nuzzled into her hair.
