Chapter 5:

Learning of the Past

Last Time:

"You're not my brother! You look nothing like him, nor do you have his scent! Now that we're on that subject, you smell like someone that I defeated long ago!" Kagome growled, as she knocked his sword from his hands and aimed her sword at his neck. "Really Kagome, is this enough proof?" the man asked, as his hair turned silver, and he turned into the Lord of the Western Lands. "NO! I know you and you're not my brother!" Kagome screamed. The man smirked, "But I am him," he insisted. "No! You're not! You're….

When they reached the front, they saw a man and Kagome battling and arguing about him being her older brother. "Miss Higurashi has an older brother!" Yuki asked. "No, she only has a "little" brother, Souta," Tohru said, with a confused look. "Then what the hell are they arguing about, again!" Kyo yelled. They saw Kagome getting slash on her arm and yelling out, "Fuck!" When Tohru saw her cousin getting hurt and the blood, she fainted, Yuki caught her and laid her down on the porch gently. Kyo was about to step in and help her, but Yuki stopped him. "What the hell are you doing!" Kyo yelled. "We will not interfere, unless necessary!" "Are you crazy!" Kyo cried. "No, this is not our fight, we will NOT interfere," Yuki stated firmly. "You're fucking stupid! What if she gets killed!" Kyo yelled. "I do not think it will last that long."

This Time:

"Hey, asshole! Where are you looking at!" Kagome yelled as she slashed his arm. Suddenly there was a puff of smoke and then "Ow, Momma! Couldn't you have gone a little easier on me?" he whimpered from the middle of the smoke. Kagome blinked once, then twice and then as the smoke cleared there sat …"EHHHH! SHIPPOU! Oh my God! You're bleeding! Oh, I'm so sorry, Shippou!" She threw herself to the man who now had bright brown hair. Kyo turned to Yuki and said "I think she's lost it." Yuki nodded in agreement, as they both headed to the two figures sitting on the ground. "Miss Higurashi, may I ask who this is?" Yuki asked. "Oh yeah, this is Shippou, my son." Kagome said bluntly. "Y-Your SON! But you're only 17!" Kyo yelled in shock. "No! No! He's my adopted son!" Kagome giggled at the look of horror and shock on their faces.

"Shippou, what are you doing here anyways, besides the fact that you're here to visit me that is," Kagome asked. "Well, Sesshoumaru sent me to go fetch you for him. He said there was something important he wanted to discuss with you." Shippou said. "Sesshoumaru!" Kagome asked confused. "Yeah, and he also said to see if you had become rusty over the years." Shippou said with a smirk. "RUSTY! Why that-I'll show that stuck-up prick whose rusty!" Kagome yelled outraged. Yuki and Kyo sweatdropped. Shippou chuckled at his mother who was currently ranted about not going to be sure about his gender after she was through with him.

"Calm down, momma." "Hmph! Still…I'm going to kick that dog's obnoxious ass," Kagome muttered, as she turned towards Yuki and Kyo "Hey, do you mind giving us a few minutes of privacy, please?" she asked. "Feh, whatever," Kyo said as he walked off. "If you insist, Higurashi-san," Yuki said looking uncertain. "It's Kagome, remember?" Kagome asked with a heart warming smile. "Ah yes, of course Kagome" Yuki said with a bow as he left.

"Do you want to know what happened to the rest of us when you left or not?" Shippou asked impatiently. "Did you just raise your voice at me young man?" Kagome asked as she turned to face her not so small son, while she raised her right eyebrow. "Uh…no?" Shippou answered with a gulp. "I didn't think so. Now tell me!" Kagome asked with anticipation. "Okay, sheesh! After 2 years when you had left, Inuyasha and Kikyou mated. They had 3 children, who were all half-demons. They had two sons and one daughter. Their two sons' names were Koinu and Sesshou. They had named their daughter Kagome, after you. Surprisingly, Kikyou was the one who had suggested it. Kikyou passed away from old age, asking Inuyasha to watch their children for her. But Inuyasha was filled with grief, after loosing you, his best friend, and then his beloved, he passed away struck with grief.

I had moved in with Miroku, Sango and Kohaku until Miroku and Sango had their first child. I had not wanted to be in the way, so I decided that I'd go traveling like we use to all the time. Then, I ran into "Lord" Sesshoumaru. He had asked me "What is a kit like you, traveling around alone, with no protection? Your mother would not have been happy with you if she found out that you died at a young age. Come." And from then on, I lived with Sesshoumaru in the Western Lands.

He's been training me since I was a kit. Rin grew up to be a very beautiful woman. Actually, she looked a lot like you Momma. She found a mate and lived a content life. When she passed away from her mate's betrayal, Sesshoumaru had went into demon rage and howled with anger and anguish. He hunted down that bastard and killed him viciously, but he did not stop there. He had not had his fill of blood and killed many. I had found him in a village about to attack the people of that village. I was scared. Not of Sesshoumaru but scared of the Taiyoukai Sesshoumaru, Lord of the Western Lands. I remember…

Flashback:

"Sesshoumaru! Sesshoumaru! Snap out of it! Momma wouldn't have wanted you to do this! These people have not done anything to deserve your wrath. Do you want to taint Rin's name with innocent blood! You must stop this foolishness!" a 15 year old Shippou cried as he held onto one of Sesshoumaru's large paw. Sesshoumaru had looked down at Shippou, his eyes still bleeding red, but began to recede back to the color of amber as he began to whimper in pain and agony from the lost of his daughter.

End of Flashback:

He treated me like his own son. Momma? Momma!" he saw Kagome sitting there with tears in her eyes. "Why are you crying, Momma? Everything is okay now! We're back together again!" "No, no it's not okay! I left you during those horrid times! What if Sesshoumaru never came across you? What would you have done! What kind of a mother am I!" she sobbed. "It's okay, Momma. I'm not upset with you! Actually, I was never upset or disappointed in you. I knew you had to go. All those years back, 500 years ago…" Shippou whispered, as he held her.

After about 20 minutes, Kagome sat up, rubbed her eyes and smiled, "So, do you have a mate, Shippou?" she asked mischievously. Shippou turned bright red, "Uh, w-well…" "I'm just playing with you!" Kagome giggled, then looked curiously. "Do you?" Kagome asked. "Uh, well, I'm courting someone," Shippou admitted sheepishly. "WHAT! And when did you plan on telling your mother this! Who is she? Do I know her? What's her name? What kind of demon is she? Wait, is she even a she? Or is she a he?" Kagome asked in one breath. "MOM!" Shippou yelled while turning bright red from her last question. "I'm telling you now. It's a she. No, you don't know her. Her name is Takiko and she is a black kitsune," Shippou finished with a smile fondly. "Really!" Kagome asked in delight. "When can I meet her!" Kagome squealed with anticipation. "After, you go see Sesshoumaru," Shippou stated firmly. "B-but!" "No." "Hmph! Wait a minute! I'm the one in charge here! I'm your mother!" Kagome declared. "But I was sent by Sesshoumaru, and you can't argue with him because he's your older brother," Shippou stated with satisfaction. "No fair!" Kagome pouted.

That's all I got so far. Hoped you enjoyed it. Watch for the next chapter 'Meeting the Taiyoukai' Don't forget to review.
