Lanenkar – Thank you for your input, I will keep that in mind for future stories, because, unfortunately, this one is finished. I am very pleased that you support me! And if you are a big Sess/Kag fan, check out some of my other work if you haven't already! I like reviews lol

BlackPhoenix667 – Thank you for your support, and I have taken the advice given to me by reviewers and yourself into consideration.

Of course, she fully deserved it, but that's another story. And thank you for the advice; I will not stop doing something that I love.

Sxyblondgrl95 – Awww, I feel special now, thank you!

Flame Ivy Moon – Your review made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I is a very happy authoress.

Caged Bird – I shall keep that in mind, thanks! I know I haven't really said a whole lot about why they like each other. Maybe some day when I get around to it I'll revise this lol.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Epilogue

It had been nearly two hundred years.

I hated been immortal. Absolutely hated it. It just was completely unfair. The mating process had gone wonderfully, and for forty years, she was by my side, my queen, my lovely, my Kagome.

But she had not been bound to me as was expected.

She was supposed to become immortal. She was supposed to stay with me forever. But instead of remaining frozen as she was, a perfect beauty queen, she aged. Do not get me wrong; I still loved her until the day she passed, but that was the problem.

She was not supposed to pass.

Instead of forever like it says in the mating bond, I received what the vows were in the human marriage process.

'Until death do us part.'

She had gone peacefully, and for that, I was thankful. Sleeping, in my arms like she loved to, she had taken her last breaths, and died as my cold metallic eyes watched as the life left her ever-fragile body.

Now, no one except for me remembered her. She was lost to everyone but me. Yet again I cursed my immortality, and cursed the fact that these days there was no possible chance of my dying in a violent way.

For suicide was not an option.

I almost tried suicide, but, at a time when my brother had been in existence, he reminded me that I would not get to be with my beloved in the afterlife should I take my own life.

I feel into depression, and did not notice when those around me passed. Only the knowledge that it would hurt her to see me like that broke me from my stupor, and I allowed myself to regain my honor, and I climbed back up the business world like I had been at the time of her death.

Only this time, I would not let a single person break through my icy exterior. That was her job and her job only.

I had no desire to live, but had to for her sake, I knew. Though I knew she would not approve of my doing right now, but I could not help it.

I missed her too much.

So, here I stood, in the city square, despite the warnings of nuclear war about to begin. The city was empty and desolate; everyone had been evacuated, but still I waited.

I was waiting for death. Begging it to come and take me, take me away, to her. She was my only, and I didn't think I could survive much longer anyway without her to calm me. Without her; my only, my treasure, my entire life.

I couldn't.

I needed her.

With my demonic hearing, I could hear the nuclear warhead as it was being dropped on the city. Time seemed to slow down, as the gleaming metal bomb came into my line of vision.

'You could do it.'

A little voice whispered in my head, telling me I could still outrun it. I could still escape, though not unscathed, I would still be alive.

I ignored it.

I would get to see my darling once again. She was only mere seconds away from this living hell I had been forced to endure. Mere seconds.

The explosion was intense.

It hurt like hell. I could feel my body being ripped apart. The pain was so massive, I did not even register someone being near my person, and I was too dazed to do anything but lay there.

"Sesshoumaru."

"Nguh."

"Dammit Sesshoumaru! Wake up you lazy ass! I've waited long enough!"

"Muh?"

I opened my eyes, and immediately closed them. The light was blinding, but I had to see. That voice…I recognized it. Could it be? Were my assumptions correct?

"Look Sesshou, I've been stuck here for almost two hundred years, BY MYSELF, and you are just being plain ignorant by making me wait longer. Do you have any idea how boring it was and how much I-"

"I missed you."

My lovely Kagome jumped and looked at me. Shock registered in her eyes before she smiled happily and wrapped long, slender arms around my neck.

"Sesshoumaru! I miss you so much! I thought you would never get here!"

"Where exactly is here?" I asked, sitting up. She let go of my neck, but stayed sitting next to me.

She smiled brilliantly and said nothing, except. "Not sure, but is sure is boring."

I looked around. There was an expanse of grass, and a lake with a bridge off to one side, but not another soul in sight. Kagome sighed and scanned the area.

"The guy on the bridge is mean. He wouldn't let me cross and shoved me back over here. He wouldn't even let me talk for the first hundred years! Then we had a big argument and now he's ignoring me." Kagome folded her arms across her chest and looked at me for help.

I smiled casually. "How did he do it?"

She looked at me blankly. "Do what?"

"Keep you silent for one hundred years. I shall have to ask him his secret."

"Hey! Just for that, I'll do it another hundred years and you'll have to keep yourself occupied! See how you like that!"

"Pity, I can't ask him. He seems to have disappeared."

"Hey! You're ignoring me!"

"I'm sorry, did you say something?"

She chose to ignore my last remark, and looked at the bridge. "And that bloody bastard can turn invisible. I thought he disappeared at first to and tried to sneak across. Damn moron caught me." She frowned, making my smile grow.

"Well, lets see if we can convince him otherwise, shall we?" I asked, entirely pleased to be back with my mate.

"Alright, but once we get over there, you have some explaining to do."

"Like?" I asked, wondering what on earth I could have done now.

"Like how come it took you two hundred years to get up here? AND how come you were so depressed for one hundred of those years?"

I sighed. "I told you I missed you." I murmured gently as we walked toward the bridge.

"That was no reason for you to forget the world around you."

I sighed. "It will not happen again."

"Promise?"

"I do. For now there is no reason for me to miss you, as you are staying by my side." I growled slightly.

She rolled her eyes at me. "Wow. Two hundred years and you're still possessive. Look! There he is!" she pointed at an aged guard looking fiercely at us.

"So, trying to pass again Kagome? And who is this you've brought with you?" he asked, glaring at Sesshoumaru.

"I am her mate. You would do well to move otherwise I shall decapitate you."

The guard leaned on his spear. "Hah! I've been dead for over twenty billion years! I've heard it all! You must be Sesshoumaru, however, and I shall let you pass. Although NOT because you have threatened me."

"Why then?" Kagome asked.

"Because you two aren't allowed to go anywhere without the other one. That's why."

JE FINI! (I did that just to bug you Bianca!)
