The little fire demon walked slowly towards his partners. He didn't really want to deal with them right now, but since he knew they didn't leave, he'd have to. He'd also have to have a little talk with the kit. Upon reaching the mouth of the cave he saw them. Though his partners were pretending to be asleep. "Kit, come here."

 

That single command woke Shippo and he shot up. Looking around, he found Hiei and headed over to him. The fire demon led him away from his friends and to an empty chamber closer to his. When they stopped, Shippo waited patiently. "This is going to be your room. You fix it up, and you can call me your father."

 

Shippo squealed and hugged Hiei, which the fire demon had no clue what to do about. A giggle from the doorway let them know they had company. Both demons turned to see Kagome staring at them. Now Shippo flew at her, she managed to catch him. Since he was larger, it made it a little difficult.

 

"Mommy! Hiei said he'd be my daddy! I have a family again!" At seeing how happy her kit was, her powers bubbled over. A wave of power washed over everyone making them instantly happy. Hiei smiled an actual smile at the feeling.

 

Kagome merely hugged her kit even closer and started crying. "This is soooo wonderful Shippo!" Looking up at Hiei and seeing him smiling, a true smile, she rushed into his arms. "We're one big happy family!" Shippo stiffened and jumped from her arms. Both 'parents' looked at him. "What's wrong?"

 

The kit sniffed at her. "What do you mean by big?"

 

Kagome instantly stilled and Hiei looked closely at her. She looked between them and giggled nervously before facing Hiei. "Have you noticed that your heat is dissipating extremely early?"

 

Realization dawned in the fire demon's eyes. He grabbed her and pulled her in for a fiery and passionate kiss. When they pulled apart, Kagome was dazed. Finally coming out of it, she noticed a dejected Shippo. So she turned to him and kneeled. Pulling him into a hug she embraced him as tight as she could. "You'll always be my little boy Shippo. My first child. No matter what, you'll always be special to me. Besides, you need to cheer up." She pulled away with a smile so she could look at his curious face.

 

"Why do I need to?"

 

Her smile grew wider. "You're going to be a big brother."

 

A bright smile returned to his face as he crashed back into her arms, knocking them both over. Hiei looked on in amusement. "You'll needed to quit doing that when she's farther along, and I'll need to start your training."

 

The kit's eyes became even brighter as they lit up again. He looked at his new father with a large grin on his face. "Really, you'll train me?"

 

Hiei had a small, but true smile on his face when he answered. "Of course. I have to make sure my son is capable of protecting himself." He looked to Kagome. "You are to move your stuff into our room."

 

Her eyes instantly lit up. She could clearly see his compassion for her in his crimson eyes. She nodded vigorously. "Hai, but I'm making breakfast first."

 

They all left the chamber that was to be Shippo's room, and headed towards the mouth of the cave. Kagome was thinking along the entire way, and she managed to shield her thoughts from her mind reading demon companion, or she thought she did.

 

If this is going to be my home too, I'm putting a kitchen in one of the empty chambers. She smiled happily to herself as her thoughts continued. He's defiantly keeping me! I can tell he likes me, at least a little. Mentally sighing, her thoughts continued. I guess that's more than Inuyasha felt for me. If I'm lucky, maybe he'll come to love me. I mean, I've already practically fallen for him. Another mental sigh.

 

As soon as they reached the main chamber, Kagome pulled Shippo over to her bag and began whispering to him hurriedly. Unfortunately, none of the men could hear their whispers. Hiei just shook his head and walked toward the two sitting demons. He smirked upon noticing that they were in awe of his onna.

 

In awe didn't quite cover what Youko felt. He wanted the girl, and he wanted her badly. Only problem with that, was that the dragon's aura was swirling around the girl. Meaning that she belonged to Hiei.

 

Kuronue found himself in a similar state. The human miko had the beauty of a demoness! Hell, the beauty of a goddess! She was extremely unusual, like a treasure. And he found himself wanting to steal her. Problem was though, this treasure could easily kill him by purification. They were both snapped from their thoughts upon hearing Hiei's cold and uncaring voice. "I am alright, and yet you stayed. What else do you need?"

 

Over near the bag, the two were whispering excitedly. "So, do you really think you could find some eggs?"

 

"Do they have to be chicken eggs?"

 

"It'd be nice, but not necessary I think."

 

Shippo smirked mischievously. "Do you want a chicken too momma?"

 

Looking at her son, she saw the look. "You just wanna test your skills, don't you?"

 

"Hai momma."

 

"Fine, a chicken, but you get to clean it. Oh, and you have to wait till it's closer for dinner to get it."

 

"Ok. I'll go find some eggs." Shippo took off, as the demons looked at him. Hiei looked over at Kagome.

 

"He's doing me a favor." She said simply as she again started sorting through her bag.

 

Hiei shook his head and turned back to his partners. "Well?"

 

Youko stood and looked at him. "We have found our next job, and were wondering if you wanted to come." He looked over at the girl, then back to Hiei. "How can a miko not have her innocence, have been taken by a demon, and still remain pure with her powers in tact?" Hiei just shrugged. He had no clue.

 

Kagome, who heard the question, started giggling. "Human and demon makes no difference. If you're pure of heart, you'll retain your powers no matter what. Most miko have to retain their innocence to keep their powers because their hearts contain hate, mainly for demon kind.

 

I've kept my powers, in fact they drastically increased, after my first time with Hiei. It's because I am pure. Miko like Kikyo can't keep their powers, because they hate demons and hanyou. I simply don't care what you are, only who you are."

 

"And how did you come by that answer, if I may ask?" Youko asked looking at the miko's back.

 

Kagome giggled. "Whether you may ask or not, you just did." Hiei smirked at the astonished look on the fox's face. "I came to the conclusion when I realized that miko who start families loose their power, unless they become kuromiko. Kuromiko have impure powers, so it doesn't matter that they become impure. This little baby incarnation that took control of my soul, said that there was only the tiniest speck of darkness."

 

"I thought you said you were pure?" chuckled Kuronue.

 

"I am not finished." She said as she sent a cold glare at him, which made him shrink away from her. Seeing Hiei's smirk at her glare, she giggled. "The darkness was from my bitterness towards Inuyasha and jealousy toward Kikyo. I've been over that though, and been dealing with the fact we'd only ever be friends.... Of course, that's if he'd ever stopped treating me like I was worthless.

 

I've learned of two other miko who did not distinguish between demon, human, and hanyou. They took husbands, and still retained their powers. They used their powers against evil only, not just any demon they came across. So it's my conclusion that if you don't hate demons and hanyou, and think of everyone as equals, you'll remain pure with your powers intact."

 

Youko thought for a moment. "If what you say is true, then most miko hold only the purity of their innocence?" Kagome nodded. "That's interesting."

 

Kagome turned to face him. She had a large smile, but her eyes held the promise of a painful death. "Misuse what I've just told you, and I'll make it so you can never take pleasure in a woman again." She gave a pointed look downward as pink purifying power crackled around her hand.

 

Kuronue and Youko both gulped and stepped away from her, while Hiei was chuckling. "So you're scared of my onna?"

 

"Well, she can be scary sometimes." Kuronue said as he looked at the little fire demon. His chuckles had stopped, but amusement was clearly in his eyes. They moved to a different chamber, at Kagome's request because she wanted breakfast to be a surprise. The plans for their next heist was talked about.

 

Shippo returned an hour later, laden with food. A goofy grin was on his face as he handed his mother three loaves of bread, a dozen eggs, and two pales of milk. She was astonished at how much he brought. "How did you manage to steal all of this?"

 

His goofy grin turned sly. "Why mother, I am a kitsune, and we are masters in the art of thievery."

 

"And seduction." Her mumbled words sent him giggling hysterically to the floor. "Go find out how hungry everyone is."

 

He snapped up. "Hai momma."

 

Following their scents, he found them talking about a heist. So he cleared his throat to get their attention. "Momma wants to know how hungry you all are."

 

"Why?" asked Kuronue with a suspicious look.

 

Shippo merely shook his head. "I brought back enough ingredients to probably more than feed everyone. You're here, so she sees it as her responsibility to make something for you to eat. She always cooked for the group, mainly cause Sango tended to burn things."

 

Youko shrugged. "I'm pretty hungry."

 

Shippo sighed. "I'll just tell her to make it all." As he walked away, he heard them starting their plans again.

 

About an hour later, Kagome sent Shippo to call them out. Her barrier around the food dropped the instant they came in sight. And she could've sworn they started to salivate. Innocently she had them sit and handed them plates. "You seem to enjoy the smell." All three male adults nodded as Shippo bust into giggles, stopping only when his mother handed him a plate too. "Bon appetite."

 

The boys looked at her oddly. Shippo shook his head. "Mamma."

 

"Oops. It's french and means enjoy." She blushed and sat beside her son with her own plate. After taking their first bites, all of the demons eyes lit up. Glad mom packed that syrup.

 

"Momma, why have you never made this before?"

 

"My mother just now packed syrup in my bag. I think she remembered me saying something about having all the ingredients here." In this era.

 

"Will you make it again?"

 

Kuronue spoke up before she could answer. "Where did you get all the ingredients? I didn't think Hiei had any of this."

 

Smiling she looked at Shippo. "I'm not sure exactly where it came from, but you could ask my little thief here."

 

"You let him steal?" Youko asked disbelievingly. "You're a miko!"

 

"So, it's in kitsune nature."

 

Shippo had already fallen over laughing, though he somehow got his plate to safety. "L-let me? She a-asked m-me t-to!" None of them could believe that. However, she had a highly innocent look on her face, almost as if she were shocked. Though her eyes looked innocent, they held a deviousness and amusement. "B-besides," he started as he was calming down. "I g-got it from the l-lord. N-not like he's g-gonna m-miss it."

 

Kagome hugged the kit. "Good. The villagers don't need to be loosing what little they do have."

 

"You're a miko, and yet you don't care that he stole from humans?" Kuronue simply could not believe it.

 

"It's not like he killed anyone. Besides, humans steal from each other all the time, so what's the big deal it's a demon this time? They'll never know the difference."

 

Hiei smirked at her. "So that means you don't care that we are thieves?"

 

"I traveled with a perverted buddhist monk who practically robbed people, a violent inu-hanyou, a cute but tricky kitsune kit, and a demon slayer who hit the boys on the head with a giant bone boomerang. I'm also friends a wolf prince, a herb loving hanyou, and a cold stick-up-his-ass taiyoukai, why would I give a rats ass that you steal things?"

 

"Those are some odd companions." Youko said as he looked her over.

 

"Were. I will no longer travel with Inuyasha."

 

"Why not?"

 

Shippo chuckled darkly at that. "Momma doesn't really care for 'clay-pot', and Inu-baka took her as his mate. None of the others will travel with him either." Since the two demons kept questioning them, Kagome went into her story, minus the parts about her with Inuyasha and where her home is. A thought suddenly came to the kit. "Hey momma?"

 

"Hmm?"

 

"Since you're more powerful now, does that mean Inu-baka will slam into the ground harder?" It was an innocent enough question, but they all saw the devious look.

 

Kagome's eyes suddenly got a far away look as a cold smile appeared on her face. "I think we'll have to find out next time we see him... When he's kissing Kikyo of course."

 

Now that was evil. "When are we visiting the group again momma?" The three men had to stop their shudders at the look in the two's eyes. Shippo's face suddenly lit with a maniacal glee as he ran toward the girl's bag. He returned with three beaded necklaces. Giggling uncontrollably with an evil smirk, he handed them to Kagome.

 

"And what is it you want me to do with these, my little kit?" Her innocent smile was creeping the other three demons out.

 

His evil smirk widened. "I think you know."

 

Smiling innocently, she laid the beads in front of her and chanted so lowly that even the demons could not hear. To say they were surprised when the beads started glowing, then wrapped themselves around their necks, would be a major understatement. Looking down at his own beads, realization dawned in Hiei's eyes. Only one word came to mind. "Fuck."

 

**&**

 

The battle was long and arduous. The rest of the 'group' had disappeared before the battle even began. After several hours, both retreated and ran. Inuyasha had to carry Kikyo to get her away. They hid in a cave for about a day and a half, before heading towards Kaede's village.

 

**&**

 

"Youko..." Came the miko's falsely sweet voice. He gulped as Shippo began giggling. "Freeze Boy!" The adult kitsune immediately froze, unable to move. "Kuronue, Stay Boy!" Now her innocent smile turned devious as she looked at the fire demon. "Down Boy." She whispered gently.

 

He felt a sharp tug, but resisted it. The other two were free by now. "He doesn't freeze, what the hell?" asked Kuronue.

 

"It tries to tug me downward."

 

"Tries?" Shippo asked as he looked up at his mother's face. Seeing the playful and devious look had it clicking together. "She didn't say it to actually force you down, it was just so she could activate the words." Looking between them again, another idea occurred. "Gods mom, and you said kitsune were known for being seductive!"

 

All the men looked at her, she merely replied to their looks with a coy smile. "His 'collar' has another purpose. Yours are to make sure you stay away from me. While I'm sure you wouldn't tempt a miko's rath, or possibly Hiei's and Shippo's, I've had those that tried anyways."

 

"Men have tried to force their attentions on you?" Youko asked in disbelief. "They mustn't have any honor."

 

"The day I find out Naraku has honor is the day I willingly touch a worm." She couldn't stop the shudder that over came her. "I hate bugs." Shippo began giggling uncontrollably. "What?"

 

"You've faced down the toughest demons without feeling any fear, and yet you scream and run from a little harmless bug." That thought drew chuckles from the other demons.

 

Kagome merely glared playfully at her kit. "But worms are slimy and evil!"

 

"Naraku's evil."

 

"But he's not slimy!" Kagome argued. "Bugs are tiny and almost unnoticeable."

 

"I don't get you momma, you yelled at Lord Sesshomaru when he threatens your life, but run away screaming from a worm." Shippo shook his head. "You're weird."

 

"Just because I'm different, doesn't mean I'm weird." She smiled at him happily. "It means I'm special..." After a moment, she mumbled to herself, though the demons still heard it. "Even if no one else sees it."

 

Hiei's actions had left everyone stunned. He'd pulled the girl into his lap and nuzzled his neck. "You most defiantly are special." He whispered into her ear. She shivered as his warm breath caressed her skin.

 

A thought suddenly came to her. "We're going to go clean up now. Shippo, would you please entertain our guests?"

 

He nodded. "I hope they put a sound barrier around that spring." Only the demons heard, and they all smirked.

 

**&**

 

Hiei pushed Kagome up against the wall and kissed her demandingly when they reached the spring chambers. Clothes were quickly discarded. However, it seemed that the fire demon wished to tease her. He was teasing her clit with the head of his cock. "Beg me for what you want."

 

Since she was laying with her back to the ground and Hiei on top of her, she thought it was time to teach him the real use for his 'collar'. Her playful smirk told him that something he would not expect was coming. Leaning upward a little, she whispered in a breathy voice, caressing his ear, that caused a shiver to run down his spine. "Down boy."

 

The effect of the spell was instantaneous. Kagome cried out in bliss as his hard member drove into her hard and deep. Hiei came down right on top of her, moaning in pleasure as he was sheathed quickly into her tight and pulsating warmth.

 

Pushing against him, Kagome started a pace. Hiei took the pace faster though. "You're going to pay for that." He whispered huskily into her ear as he nibbled on it.

 

His pace was incredibly fast and she knew she had no way of keeping up with it, but still she tried. "It was worth it" she said between moans. She could feel his energy whipping wildly around him, could feel the dragon tearing from his arm, and saw as his third eye opened.

 

She knew that it was all because of her. Her teasing him was making him transform, and she was enjoying it! As her nails dug into his flesh, he closed his eyes in bliss. Arching into him further, she allowed him to penetrate deeper. Knowing exactly what to do to send him into his transformation, she unleashed her power.

 

She wanted him to claim her, and knew that his beast would know exactly what he wanted even he himself did not. Love for him had grown. She needed him, and needed him badly. Of course, she would not yet perform the bond she wished. Her bond would tie their souls together.

 

Hiei was in pure bliss, and his beast wanted out. He was afraid of what the girl's reaction would be though. His felt the jagan and dragon calling out to her. His control over his body and beast was slipping. All control shattered when she sent out a wave of power. His beast surged forth in order to dominate her.

 

A coy smile appeared on her lips as his skin tinged green. Eyes opened all over his body and looked at her. Quickly pulling out, he flipped her to her hands and knees. When he had started to shove in, the subjugation command came again. Hiei growled deeply as she moaned in her intense pleasure.

 

It did feel good, but Kagome was trying to dominate him in his true form. That simply would not do. Slowly he pulled out of her, before ramming back in. Her response was a deep moan. He set a very inhuman pace as her took her. She had climaxed multiple times and was on the verge of doing so again when Hiei's pace hastened. He whispered a command to her that she just had to obey. They came at the same time and Hiei bit deep into her shoulder, marking her as his for all eternity.

 

His mind slowly came out of the haze as the dragon unwrapped both of them and returned to his arm. He could feel the bond forming from the mark. Releasing his hold on her shoulder, he started to lick the wound.

 

"I hope you realize what you did onna."

 

She just smiled serenely at him. "Yep! I'm yours forever and ever... unless of course you wanna get rid of me."

 

He smirked as he nuzzled her neck. "I'm a thief. I tend to keep pretty jewels."

 

**&**

 

The three demons were currently on their way to a castle. No one had said anything about the now present mating mark that was on the miko's neck. Her aura, however, was glowing vibrantly when they returned from the spring.

 

It had been two days since they had left, and they were all starting to feel a sense of foreboding. They were quickly nearing the castle that held the jewels they sought. "Can you sense that Hiei?"

 

"It feels like pure evil. Can you pinpoint it with the jagan?" Kuronue asked.

 

"No." Was their only reply. They hastened their pace, hoping to get this job over with.

 

**&**

 

"Shippo, something's wrong!" The kit looked at his mother and nodded. For he could sense it too. Quickly he grabbed her bow and arrows before rushing out the cave entrance after her. Tossing the weapons to her, he quickly transformed into a hawk.

 

Nodding her understanding, she quickly mounted and they set off, heading in the direction that she could sense their new friends. An uneasy feeling surrounded Kagome when she realized what direction they were heading. It was towards Naraku's castle.

 

Shippo apparently noticed as well, because he picked up the pace. With him flying at their current speed, they'd be there shortly. Already she could feel the evil aura radiating from ahead of them. She could also sense the battle that was waging.

 

**&**

 

When they reached the castle, they had been expecting guards. However, there were none. A thick cloud of miasma was wrapped around the place. The stench was horrid. A voice sounded from somewhere inside the castle, but no one could pinpoint where exactly it came from.

 

"It seems that my little trap has worked. I wish to speak with you about an alliance, I need someone of your expertise to help me with something very important."

 

"And just what is it you want? Why have you not come out yet? Too scared to be in our presence?" Kuronue asked the air around him.

 

"You 'boys' are not as tough as you think you are." Naraku chuckled as he stepped out from the shadows. His long black hair fell unbound to his waist, his deep blood red eyes held nothing but malice, and though his body was well defined, none sane would be willing touch it. "Oh well, I shall absorb your powers anyway."

 

And that is how the battle began. Naraku may not have the nearly complete shikon any longer, but he still retained the powers he had gained from it. Tentacles were everywhere and the three demons could not even get close to their opponent.

 

Hiei had scratches, Kuronue had a few gashes, Youko had a single wound to his side. No matter how many tentacles they cut, they only continued to come back. They had already been fighting for an hour and were getting no where.

 

That is how Kagome and Shippo found them. Quickly taking aim she unleashed an arrow. The putrid miasma was dispersed and the two landed as Shippo turned back into his humanoid form. The girl assessed the three demons before turning back to the smirking 'hanyou'.

 

"Ah, a beautiful young girl, come to offer yourself to me?"

 

A cold smile tilted her mouth as she regarded him. "I wouldn't touch you with a ten foot pole.... Filthy half-breed, or can someone like you really be considered hanyou? Hmm.... Naraku?"

 

The three demons snapped their attention to the girl before turning back to the their opponent. He glared menacingly at the girl. "How is it you know my name, woman?"

 

Just then, another demon lands on the battlefield. Kagome bows her head to him and he replies with a curt nod. Figures that he'd recognize me. "Why wouldn't I know your name?"

 

He turned his attention from the girl, which served to anger her. However she simply made her way over to the three demons. "Lord Sesshomaru, I had not expected you to show yourself."

 

The dog lord growled deeply in his throat as he charged the disgusting creature. Shippo and Kagome had just made it to the other three and the girl began healing them. Hiei was first, of course. Then Kuronue and Youko. "Die stupid demons!" Called out several low class demon from behind her.

 

A barrier flared around them, stopping the advancing demons. Kagome turned to them, cold smile still in place. Throwing up her hand, she sent out a wave of purifying power, completely destroying the low level army. "You first."

 

"Nicely done sister." Came Sesshomaru's smooth baritone as he landed beside her. Naraku had just ran.
