Chapter 9: Sesshoumaru's Decision
Heiara stood there for a moment. She couldn't believe what she just witnessed and then see the look in her brother's eyes. They hurt, the sadness, it was just too unbearable. The last time she had seen him look like this was when her family left her to die. She couldn't see him like this again, and she had grown quite found of the girl. She walked over to him and knelt beside him and said, "I cannot do anything, this is for my mate to decide." She said in a low whisper. She knew he would get angry but it was the truth this was beyond her power. She summoned up her mate.
It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone
Koni appeared seconds later looking at her. "What is my love?" Heiara took a deep breath before answering, "I need you to do me a huge favor." Before he could ask what she said, "I need you to bring Kagome's soul back; I know for a fact that it was not time for her die. My brother needs her or I fear he will be worse then he was when I was abandoned. Please Koni!" By this time she was in tears. She didn't want to see her brother suffer any more.
Something has been taken from deep inside of me
The secret I've kept locked away no one can ever see
Wounds so deep they never show they never go away
Like moving pictures in my head for years and years they've played
Her mate looked at her then Sesshoumaru. He could tell that this would be devastating if he didn't so many lives would be ruined if he didn't. He could also tell the Sesshoumaru needs her, he needs to have someone melt that heart of ice. It was very wrong to do something like this, but he couldn't let his mate down either. He knew how much Heiara loved her brother and that she would do anything to make him happy and so the least he could do was grant her this one wish.
If I could change I would take back the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave I would
If I could change I would take back the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
I would take all my shame to the grave
"Of course my darling anything to make your brother and you happy." He noted the smile that came to her face and saw how she looked more beautiful then when she wasn't. He said a spell in Ancient Tongue and Kagome's body started to glow. After a few seconds she breathed in deeply and then she started coughing. Sesshoumaru held her tightly and then she slowly opened her gorgeous brown eyes and looked into his icy blue ones. "The deed is down, and I'll see you at home love." Heiara just nodded her head and looked at her brother.

"You have your wish dear brother, I will come back tonight for your final decision." Before Sesshoumaru could answer, his sister was gone. He gazed into his loves eyes and held onto her tight, thinking that if he let go she would disappear forever. The exchanged no words, but the other knew what they were thinking. After a few more moments, Kagome passed out. She was weak and needed her rest and her mate knew that.

Later That Night
Sesshoumaru never left Kagome's side. He was so worried that he was going to lose her again but knew that his sister wouldn't let him down. He had been thinking when his beautiful maiden awoke. He was disrupted from his thoughts when he heard his name slowly being whispered. He looked down and saw that his Kagome was awake. "What can I do for you, my love?" he replied in a whisper.
"How long have I been out?"
"A few hours, I want you to help me decide if I should stay a demon or to become a god. I understand if you don't, but I have to choose by midnight tonight." (A/N: I know he sounds OOC, but think about it his mate died and then came back to life and he's got the hugest decision he's probably going to ever make in his whole life.) She smiled up warmly at him and took a few moments to sit up. It was a great deal of effort for she was still weak and needed to get her strength back.
"I would love to help you. In all honesty I think you should choose to be the god because I would be sort of worried if your brother became the God of Fate." Kagome stated matter-of-factly. She tried to keep a serious face on when she saw the look of horror upon his gorgeous features. She burst out laughing. Sesshomaru looked at her and saw how wonderful she looked when she was full of laughter and it made him smile. And for the first time in the Taiyoukai's life he truly meant that smile.
"Yes having that idiot of a brother as the God of Fate would not make this Sesshoumaru to happy." They sat talking a little while longer when they heard a faint pop and Heiara walking towards them. She didn't have to say anything for Sesshoumaru had said, "I've thought about the decision long and hard. And with the help of my mate, I have decided to become the God of Fate."
"Wonderful! I was kind of worried that you would deny it and that idiot brother of ours would become a god. I would be a little worried for demon and man kind. Now in order to get the powers and complete everything you have to cut an opening in your arm so that I may give you some of the blood I carry." Sesshoumaru did as he was told and made a small cut on his arm. Heiara did the same and placed her cut over her brothers. There was a blinding light and then everything went black for a few moments. When everyone could see again, Sesshoumaru was glowing a pure white. He was now the God of Fate.
