All Because Of A Stupid Sword


A/N- And here it is, the final chapter in this four-shot. I'm so happy that it's here but at the same time I'm sad, but what can yah do?

Disclaimer- InuYasha isn't mine, but a girl can dream, can't she?

There is a lemon in this chapt, but because of rules I know I should cut it out. I don't want to get kicked off...something that really and I mean really pisses me off!

But as the last chapt, I will let that slip...I just hope it doesn't come back to bite me on the ass...also, it will be toned down. I will post a more...detailed version on my other sites on a much later date. Just check out my profile if you want to find out where they are.

Oh, I almost forgot, I have a special treat!

At the end of this, I will give you all a preview to the next thing that I'm working on and if you really like the idea, then I'll start posting it!

Anyway, I think it's time to get going on this...so enjoy!

Chapter Four

Forever And Always

------------------------------------------------------0o0------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome didn't know when or why, but she had fallen asleep snuggled in Sesshoumaru's embrace as they flew through the skies.

She awoke to the sound of knocking.

Shifting upon the very soft bed, Kagome pushed herself onto her elbows as she let her eyes scan the room in which she now sat.

The room was huge, so huge that she could barely contain the gasp of surprise that came from her throat. All about her were tapestries, the huge figures of Inu Youkai's sat upon each of them, 'must be his relatives.'

She knew this was Sesshoumaru's room it was rather obvious.

Feeling something shift at her side, Kagome glanced down only to have her eyes widen in surprise even as a curious smile crossed her lips.

The small form was curled, hugging a pillow tightly to her chest. Lifting a hand, Kagome ran her fingers through the girl's dark hair. "Now who are you little one...I feel as if I've seen you somewhere before...but where..."

As Kagome mused to herself out loud, she failed to hear the door slide open and shut, her attention was focused fully upon the strange girl lying at her side.

"Kagome..." Nearly jumping out of her skin at the hot breath and voice that was right behind her, Kagome forced her racing heart to slow as she turned her head, her eyes meeting the amused amber one's of the youkai standing at the end of the bed.

"Sesshoumaru, don't do that. You nearly scared me half to death..." Kagome trailed off as she felt the girl shift, coming out of her slumber.

"Lord Sesshoumaru?" The sleepy voice was soft and Kagome felt a soft smile cross her lips as she returned her gaze to the girl. As her eyes met the soft brown ones of the now smiling girl, Kagome immediately recognized her.

"Rin, why did you come in here?" Behind her Kagome could feel the bed dip as Sesshoumaru settled himself directly behind her, one of his hands slipped about her waist, tugging her back against the hard planes of his chest. A blush immediately sprang up on Kagome's cheeks, 'I really need to get used to this gentler side of his, but heck, who knew Mr. Ice block even had a gentle side?'

A sudden tug at her hands brought Kagome out of her thoughts and she wondered when she had become so prone to drifting off. Rin had situated herself on her knees as she gazed up at Kagome in open adoration, a smile spread wide upon her lips. "Because, Rin wanted to see who my new okaa-san was going to be. What's your name pretty lady?"

Kagome gaped for several seconds as Rin's words echoed through her mind, 'okaa-san? Now when did I agree to that...oh...yeah, I had almost forgotten.' Suddenly feeling incredibly sheepish, Kagome let a gentle smile curl her lips as she tapped Rin's nose lightly, earning a giggle in response.

"My name is Kagome, but you can call still me okaa-san, alright?" Rin immediately began nodding her head furiously as she practically leapt into Kagome's lap, wrapping both her arms about her waist and brining a shocked but happy smile to Kagome's lips.

Sesshoumaru had watched this all with a soft look in his eyes, 'she will make a good mother to Rin and for our own future pups.' Feeling his youkai purr his agreement, Sesshoumaru decided that the time had come, "Rin."

Pulling back, Rin smiled up at Sesshoumaru, her eyes filled with more happiness than Sesshoumaru had seen from her in a very long time. "Go and find Jaken," Rin immediately nodded her head before releasing Kagome and hopping down from the bed. She had disappeared out the door before Kagome even had a chance to so much as blink.

Smirking to himself, Sesshoumaru tightened his grip about Kagome's waist as he tugged her closer, burring his nose into her neck and taking in a deep breath of her scent. He could feel Kagome stiffen slightly before she relaxed against him, a sigh drawing its way from her lips.

"Are you really sure that I am what you want Sesshoumaru? I mean, you could have any woman out there, but you chose me...why?" Sesshoumaru sighed as he pulled back, shifting he gently pushed Kagome back onto the bed, settling himself above and between her legs as he locked their eyes.

Kagome could swear that her face was the color of a tomato, she had failed to think about all the ramifications of being Sesshoumaru's mate. 'Stop it! Don't go there or else I'll never be able to show anyone my face again...' her thoughts trailed off when she realized that it didn't really matter, as long as Sesshoumaru loved her.

Seeing the embarrassment and sadness in Kagome's eyes, Sesshoumaru nearly shook his head in exasperation, nearly mind you. 'It seems that she shall need constant proof of my feelings for her...' 'So what are you waiting for?!'

Jerking at the sudden appearance of his youkai's thoughts, Sesshoumaru decided to take his youkai's words to heart after a few moments of thinking. Cupping Kagome's cheek, Sesshoumaru tilted her head, exposing the right side of her neck to his gaze as he trailed his claws along the pulse point. Earning him a shiver in response.

"You are unique Kagome. Not once in my long life have I ever encountered someone like you. A miko that could accept and even love a youkai, only one other miko has ever done such a thing but even then, she was not as pure as you. I love you Kagome...what more could I possibly want?"

Kagome felt her heart begin to ache at the truth in Sesshoumaru's words, it was too much for Kagome to bare. Tears trickled down her cheeks as she turned her head, lifting her hand and placing it flat against Sesshoumaru's chest, right above his heart.

"I...th...thank you Sesshoumaru...I...I am sorry that I ever doubted your intentions..." Kagome trailed off as she looked away, unable to meet Sesshoumaru's gaze any longer. She felt horrible for so much as thinking that Sesshoumaru wasn't completely committed to this, 'I am such an idiot...I don't deserve someone like him...and I never will...'

Seeing that Kagome was starting to turn on herself, Sesshoumaru went about putting a stop to it the best way he could, with a sudden and not to mention toe curling kiss.

As Kagome's hands found their way into long and lush silver locks, Sesshoumaru's hands began the arduous task of stripping the female below him of those rags that she called garments. Kagome's mind was in such a haze from the kiss that she didn't even notice what the Taiyoukai had been up to until he had unclasped her bra.

Stilling immediately, Kagome's eyes grew wide with fear and uncertainty, she was still a virgin after all and the most action she had ever seen was the kiss that she had given InuYasha back in Princess Kaguya's castle. Truthfully, that kiss didn't really count either.

But Kagome shoved those thoughts aside as she tentatively pushed herself up, giving Sesshoumaru the room he needed to slide the straps of her bra down her arms. She shivered in apprehension and embarrassment as Sesshoumaru's now molten gold eyes ran over her exposed flesh in a clearly predatorial way.

Feeling his fangs already beginning to lengthen as he let his eyes take in Kagome's pert breasts and the small oval shaped birth mark that sat underneath the areola of Kagome's left breast. Deeming that to be his starting point, Sesshoumaru bent his head and growled feraly as he lifted Kagome's left breast with his right hand.

As a gasp of surprise passed Kagome's lips, it was soon replaced by a groan of pure and utter pleasure as Sesshoumaru proceeded to lave the underside of her breast, bathing it thoroughly as his left hand made its way slowly down Kagome's stomach and to the hem of her skirt.

His eyes looked up at Kagome's heated face, a question clearly swirling within their depths, a question that Kagome was more than willing to answer at the moment. "Plea...please Sesshoumaru...please..."

She wasn't sure what it was exactly that she was asking for, but she knew that whatever it was, it was something that she needed now more than anything else. Purring deeply in approval at Kagome's pleading voice, Sesshoumaru quickly shredded the last two garments that covered the female beneath him.

Shaking at the sudden chill that surrounded her, Kagome noticed that Sesshoumaru had yet to disrobe himself and with herself clothed only in her birthday suit, she decided to even the score. Gripping the front of Sesshoumaru's haori, Kagome tugged as hard as she could, stilling only when the sound of ripping fabric reached her ears.

Her mouth falling open in shock, Kagome was ill prepared for Sesshoumaru's reaction. The ever stoic and emotionless Taiyoukai was shaking, his eyes shut as he bit his bottom lip. Kagome couldn't believe her ears, let alone her eyes at that moment.

'He...he's laughing?! I mean, actually laughing?!'

It was true, Sesshoumaru was laughing and was thoroughly enjoying the look of shock on Kagome's face. He just knew it would be fun letting this woman below him get to know the real him, her reactions were priceless.

As his mirth slowly came to an end, Sesshoumaru gently pried Kagome's fingers free from his now torn haori, in two swift movements he had completely disrobed and now sat kneeling above Kagome in all his glory.

Something that Kagome noticed immediately, turning her head away as a dark blush burned her cheeks, 'Oh god...he, he's...' This wasn't the first time Kagome had seen a guy naked, but she didn't think her little brother or her grandpa for that matter, counted in this area.

Feeling a small smile curl one side of his lips at how beautiful Kagome looked when blushing, Sesshoumaru started stroking Kagome's left thigh, he could smell her arousal along with her fear and nervousness. "Kagome...look at me..."

Gulping, Kagome slowly turned her head and locked her eyes with his, scared of just what would happen if she looked any lower. Tilting his head, Sesshoumaru gently laid his whole body flush against Kagome's, pulling a gasp of pure sensation from Kagome's lips. She could feel him and being the virgin that she was, she was suddenly very scared.

A fact that Sesshoumaru noticed immediately.

Pressing a soft kiss just below Kagome's ear, Sesshoumaru purred deep in his throat, attempting to soothe and reassure Kagome that it was alright and that he would never harm her. Kagome felt her stiffened muscles immediately start to relax as Sesshoumaru's gentle and lulling purrs rolled over her.

'That's right, there's nothing to fear...he won't hurt me...' "Sesshoumaru..." her words were no more than a whisper as she wrapped both her arms about Sesshoumaru's taught, not to mention strong shoulders, hugging him with bruising force as she gave herself over completely.

Trusting him with all that she was.

Closing his eyes at how wonderful it felt to have Kagome hugging him, Sesshoumaru knew that he had best get a move on or else someone might try to interrupt, 'such as a very annoying toad.' His lips twisting in disgust and slight anger, Sesshoumaru decided to hell with it and threw back his head, letting loose a deep and resounding howl.

One that he knew would echo throughout his castle and the surrounding lands, telling anyone and everyone in the vicinity that if they so much as breathed the air about his chambers, then they would no longer be among the living.

Kagome's body flushed completely as little spark of energy flooded her, making her feel a deep ache in her lower regions. That was the effect that Sesshoumaru's howl had upon her and frankly, Kagome was finding it hard not to ask him to do so again. 'God, I can't believe what a pervert I'm becoming and we haven't even done it yet! I didn't just think that, I did not think that...'

While Kagome was busy trying to convince herself of her own innocence, Sesshoumaru had started the ritual to bind them together forever. Running his tongue over his fangs, Sesshoumaru didn't so much as wince when he sliced open the muscle, letting his blood pool in his mouth for a few moments as the cut began to heal itself.

Once he was certain that he had enough, Sesshoumaru began mixing his blood with his saliva while infusing both with his demonic energy. Accomplishing that, Sesshoumaru gently gripped Kagome's chin and forced her to crane her neck.

Pressing his lips soundly against hers, Sesshoumaru pressed his tongue insistently at the seems of her lips, which after a moment, Kagome finally granted him access. Opening her mouth as wide as he could while keeping their lips locked, Sesshoumaru pushed the concoction into Kagome's mouth.

She struggled against the taste at first but once she realized that he wasn't about to release her, Kagome allowed Sesshoumaru's blood and saliva into her mouth. Once all of it had been transferred, Sesshoumaru broke the kiss and stroked Kagome's side in encouragement, "swallow it all."

Throwing him a confused look, Kagome did as she was told, swallowing the blood and saliva with a small gulp. It burned horribly on the way down and Kagome winced as her eyes filled with tears, she struggled to breathe but it took Sesshoumaru's gentle stroking on her thigh to let her finally draw precious air into her lungs.

Coughing Kagome looked up at Sesshoumaru in silent questioning, but instead of answering her, Sesshoumaru lifted her left leg instead wrapping it about his waist and holding it in place as he pressed against her softness.

A gasp rose in Kagome's throat as she arched her back, her head pressing back into the pillows below her, the feel of Sesshoumaru pressed so intimately against her felt way too good. So good in fact that Kagome found herself gripping Sesshoumaru's hair while pulling his head down, only to lock her lips to his as she pressed up into his hard and smooth form.

Sesshoumaru growled deeply in his throat as he slid his right arm underneath Kagome's form before pressing his fingers against a rather soft spot, one that had Kagome shivering as she slipped her own hands down Sesshoumaru's back, coming to a stop at the base of his tail.

Curling her finger's gently in the fur that met them, she gave a slight tug and the result was something that Kagome would never forget for the rest of her days. Sesshoumaru's head snapped back harshly as his mouth opened in a gasp of surprise and pleasure, his fangs lengthening as a whine was torn roughly from his now shaking form.

Kagome's finger's went numb as her eyes traveled Sesshoumaru's entire form, slipping free from Sesshoumaru's tail fur to land at the sides of her body upon the blanket blow her. 'Oh my god! Did...did I do that?!'

It had to be one of the best things he had ever felt, if not the best, 'where did that come from? What has this woman done to me...' Feeling her finger's slip from his tail, Sesshoumaru growled in annoyance before flattening his form atop Kagome's once again.

He began nuzzling against her neck while laving the smooth skin that met his lips, meanwhile he let his left hand move from behind Kagome, running down her side and to her inner thigh. His fingers brushed lightly against the coarse hair that covered most of her, returning the favor that Kagome had just so recently given him.

Biting her bottom lip, Kagome tried to remain still but Sesshoumaru's attentions were tickling her, unable to stop herself anymore, Kagome began giggling hysterically as her eyes snapped shut, all the while squirming spastically underneath Sesshoumaru. "St...stop that! It...ti...tickles!"

Smirking against the skin of Kagome's neck, Sesshoumaru moved his finger's further and let them brush against Kagome's wet heat, drawing a squealing moan from her lips as she arched off the bed.

In any other situation he would take this slow and be as gentle as possible, but that was not the Youkai way when first taking ones mate. Even though it would hurt her, he knew that he didn't have any choice, he must be dominant and rough or else the bond would not form and Kagome would die.

Gritting his teeth at that very thought, Sesshoumaru slowly pulled back, sitting back on his feet while he let his heated gaze run over the entire expanse of Kagome's trembling body. Soon she would be his and soon, the changes would begin.

Feeling the cool air in the room, Kagome's eyes opened to find that Sesshoumaru was staring at her, as if pondering something for he looked rather deep in thought. Licking her lips, she decided that she would return the favor and began to let her own eyes rove over Sesshoumaru's muscular form.

It was in that moment that she finally saw all of Sesshoumaru's demon markings, two long stripes were resting right over his washboard abs while two more were located on the inner part of his muscled thighs, unable to even blink at the sight before her Kagome soon found herself reaching towards him. She wanted to touch his markings.

It was the sudden and rather shocking shiver that wracked his whole form that brought Sesshoumaru back to the present, panting as he became heavily aroused. It was the very feel of Kagome's questing fingers as they practically ghosted over his quaking form, his markings were very sensitive and it seemed that this woman had found that very thing out.

Much to his pleasure of course.

The feeling of Sesshoumaru's muscles as they tensed and jumped at her touch was enough to bring a pleased smirk to Kagome's lips, 'It seems I've found one of his sensitive spots, interesting...let's see what happens when I...'

Running her fingers down the entire length of Sesshoumaru's thigh, Kagome spared a glance at Sesshoumaru and was pleased to see that he was watching her every move. Letting a purely sinful smile cross her lips, eyes never leaving Sesshoumaru's, Kagome slowly bent forwards before running her tongue over the marking before her.

A keening whine filled the air about them, surprising both Sesshoumaru and Kagome. 'Damn was that sounded sexy...hmmm...I wonder just how far I can push him...' But before she could even make another move, Sesshoumaru brought her play to a sudden halt.

Moving fast enough to give her whiplash, Kagome found herself flipped over onto her chest with her ass sticking up in the air, it took only a moment before the style of the position she was in dawned on her. She was in a female Inu receiving position.

Gripping the sheets below her Kagome prepared herself, burying her face into the pillow before her, if what she had heard about Inu mating practices was correct...this was going to hurt...like hell.

Sesshoumaru rested his head upon the middle of Kagome's back, his body was aching from trying to restrain his youkai, but if he hadn't Kagome would have been dead already. Gritting his teeth, Sesshoumaru decided to try and placate his youkai, 'calm now, we will hurt her more if you do not. Now calm and we will begin...'

Hearing the defiant snarl of his youkai in response, Sesshoumaru took a deep breath, letting his youkai share in the scent of slight fear coming from Kagome's trembling form. It was rather apparent to his eyes, she knew it was time and that it would be painful but she still sat there, waiting and trusting him.

It sounded that his youkai had calmed somewhat and Sesshoumaru breathed a sigh of relief at that, it was time to start.

Lifting his head form Kagome's back, Sesshoumaru moved one of his hands underneath her, gently placing it upon Kagome's taught stomach even as his other gripped the left side of her hip, once sure that she had enough support he shifted.

Moving his hips down before rolling them forwards, a hiss passed through his teeth as he felt his manhood slip just inside Kagome's wet heat, he hadn't even truly entered her yet but already she felt so tight.

Steeling himself for what he was about to do, Sesshoumaru tightened his grip on Kagome before throwing all his weight and power into thrusting his hips forwards, fully sheathing himself inside of Kagome as his youkai howled, 'Mine! My Bitch!'

Even with her face pressed into the pillow, Sesshoumaru's sensitive ears could hear her scream as well as smell her salty tears, but he couldn't do anything about it, this was just the way things like this were done. Taking a deep breath even as his body shook with barely restrained control, Sesshoumaru pulled back almost all the way before slamming his hips forwards once again, another one of Kagome's whimpers was muffled by the pillow.

Kagome grip was white knuckled on the sheets, 'I knew it was going to hurt, but not like someone just jammed a pool cue up my...ohhh, bad image...just breath Kagome, just breath...the pain should fade soon. At least I hope it does.'

For the next several minutes, Sesshoumaru just made simple thrusting motions within Kagome, stretching her and preparing her for what else was to come. Kagome had barely begun pressing back into him and that was all it took to bring a small smile to Sesshoumaru's lips. His female was a strong one alright.

Once sure that she was completely prepared and not in anymore pain, Sesshoumaru shifted once again but this time back upon his legs, pulling Kagome into his chest even as she ended up in his lap. Never once did he stop his thrusting, something that became almost exquisitely painful after the switch in position.

Running his hand up Kagome's stomach, Sesshoumaru let his claws trace each of her ribs as he deepened his thrusts, pressing himself as close to Kagome as he possibly could. Kagome let out a gasping moan as one of her hands slipped behind her to cup Sesshoumaru's cheek.

Turning her head, she pulled his face closer, pressing her lips to his in a heated kiss even as she felt something within her begin to tighten, it felt almost painful but in some strange way, she found even that to be arousing.

Smiling against Kagome's lips, Sesshoumaru made a particularly deep thrust and experimentally ground his hips hard against Kagome's. He nearly broke out laughing when Kagome squealed and jerked, breaking the kiss even as she took deep breaths to calm beating heart.

But not willing to give her even a moment's reprieve, Sesshoumaru released Kagome's form, and gripped her waist. Keeping his hips moving within her even as he turned her entire form around to face him, something that had Kagome screaming again but in a much more pleasing way.

"Oh Kami! Se...Sesshoumaru...that...that wasn't fair..." panting as she felt herself nearing her end, Kagome let her head fall backwards as she let Sesshoumaru have his way, exposing the right side of her neck in the process.

Falling forwards to where Kagome's back was pressed against the bed, Sesshoumaru lifted her legs, letting them wrap about his hips, but it was the very sight of Kagome exposing her neck that had his eyes bleeding red.

Digging his claws into Kagome's hips, Sesshoumaru bent his head as he roughened his thrusts, throwing all his strength into thoroughly fucking his female. Feeling his impending release upon him, Sesshoumaru wanted Kagome to come first.

So bending his head even more, he took one of Kagome's nipples between his lips, drawing a groan of pure pleasure from Kagome's lips. Kagome felt as if her whole body was on fire, that tightness within had reached its limit and then it all ended.

Her vision flashing white and red, Kagome let loose an echoing scream that made Sesshoumaru proud, for with its pitch and volume over half the castle must have heard it. "SESSHOUMARU!!!!!!!!!"

The tightness that had been there in the beginning had returned but now it felt even tighter as Kagome's release caused her inner muscles to squeeze his manhood, drawing him over the edge as well. His growls faded into whines as his body released, filling the female below him with his essence as well as the possibility of a future pup.

His body then did as all Inu's do, his hips locked against Kagome's as his length swelled within Kagome and he knew for the next few minutes at least, they were stuck together.

Smiling tiredly at that thought, Sesshoumaru knew that he had to do the last step and then he and his mate could rest. Baring his fangs, Sesshoumaru let his youkai take control as he practically lunged at Kagome's neck.

Kagome couldn't help the shudder that wracked her form as the effects of her release slowly faded, but it was the warm feeling of Sesshoumaru's seed filling her that made Kagome feel completely and utterly relaxed. Then it happened.

Sesshoumaru had buried his fangs to the gums in her neck and to her great surprise it didn't hurt as she thought it would, instead it felt as if she had just entered a dream world of some kind. But then she felt something stir within her as well, as if there was another presence that was deciding to make itself known.

She felt her gums begin to ache even as her teeth grew into deadly fangs, her fingers tingled as her nails lengthened into claws, a burning sensation filled her entire form and Kagome could only whimper as she felt her body shift and change.

It didn't take a genius to know what was happening to her, she was becoming an Inu youkai like Sesshoumaru, taking on his lifespan and forever binding herself to him. A feeling unlike any that Kagome had ever felt before filled her after the changes had ended, a feeling that she couldn't deny, even if she wanted too.

Baring her own new fangs, Kagome brushed Sesshoumaru's hair out of the way as she returned the favor, sheathing her fangs in his neck up to the gums as well. A rumbling purr was the only answer Kagome received as she swallowed a couple gulps of Sesshoumaru's hot blood, closing her eyes in contentment, Kagome wrapped both her arms about Sesshoumaru's back and held him tightly against herself.

After having enjoyed some of Kagome's hot blood as well, Sesshoumaru finally let his fangs slip from Kagome's flesh. Pulling back he laved at the bloodied wound until it started to scab over and heal, happy with this, he waited for Kagome to finish as well.

A couple of minutes passed before Kagome finally released Sesshoumaru's neck and healed his wounds as well, but once she had done this, she sank back into the bed and locked her eyes with Sesshoumaru's. She could feel fatigue from their lovemaking and her transformation starting to creep up on her, she didn't have much time.

Reaching up, Kagome traced the slope of Sesshoumaru's chin as she let a content smile cross her lips, it was now or never. "I love you Sesshoumaru..."

Closing his eyes even as he felt his heart fill with such joy, Sesshoumaru briefly let their foreheads touch before rolling onto his side, taking Kagome with him. After all they were still connected but neither really cared much.

Nuzzling his nose against Kagome's, Sesshoumaru let a soft smile cross his lips, "and I you my love, and I you." Kagome laughed and cuddled in closer to her mate, her husband, 'yes...he's mine...can I ever be more happy than I am right now?'

Letting another purr roll over Kagome, Sesshoumaru stroked her back soothingly, "sleep mate...tomorrow our life together begins...sleep..." Feeling Kagome nod her head yes, Sesshoumaru let his tail curl over her form and smiled when her own tail met his, curling over him just as his was her.

'Yes, this is how it should be...' and with that thought alone both Sesshoumaru and Kagome fell into the gentle lulls of slumber.

That was how young Rin found them the next day, still curled up together. She was ecstatic, she now had a mother and soon she hoped that she would have a little brother or sister to play with.

Giggling at that thought, Rin continued to ignore Jaken's warnings to stay away and ran into the room, making a diving leap onto her new 'parents' and causing all three of them to roll right off the bed. Only to land in a heap on the floor...

-Fin...

The End!

-------------------------------------------------------------0000----------------------------------------------------------------

A/N- And it is over...can you believe it?!

I was thinking about doing an epilogue to tie up some loose ends, mostly the one's with InuYasha and why he betrayed Kagome so easily, but I have yet to decide if that's a good idea or not...

I suppose we'll all just have to wait and see won't we?

Anyway, it's been fun, it's been hard, and it's been down right tiring but I was glad that we were all able to make this journey together and I hope you all will continue to read and review my future work.

But all things must end and this story is no exception...oh well...it was fun while it lasted at least.

Here's a quick dictionary for the Jap terms in this-

Inu- Dog

Youkai- Demon

Kami- God

Miko- A woman with spiritual powers/A priestess

Okaa-san- Mother

Taiyoukai- A Demon Lord/Ruler/Royalty

Haori- Top part of a Kimono/shirt

And there they are...

Oh yes...the story I wanted you all to give me your opinions on...well...just read below to find out!

---------------

Name- Life's Surprises

(Kagome/Sesshoumaru)

Summery-

A priestess is supposed to be able to adapt to any and all situations, she is to be looked to in a time of great need, but Kagome was never taught this. She knows nothing about her powers and her potential, but one night when she sees InuYasha with Kikyou again, she seeks comfort and lands in Sesshoumaru's arms. With a promise to love, honor and protect her, Kagome agrees to become his mate and allows him to train her. Transformed almost completely over night, Kagome returns to her friends and continues to pretend for the sake of Naraku's destruction, but when Kagome shows her new skills and alliances...will all be lost or will all be saved?

----------------

And there you have it...

Anyway, please review and I'll get to work on my other chapts!

It's been a blast peeps!

Ja Ne!
